Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 122

  Country P, Sy International.

  "Madam, I'm sorry but since you don't have any appointment with the receptionist, I couldn't allow you to enter."

  Allia Ming knew to herself that she's not showing a good attitude in public but she's very desperate now! Rudolph Sy, her son, has been deposed in his seat in Ming Corporation and was replaced by her brother's illegitimate son!

  Despite her older brother and his own family's acceptance of Joshua Ming, she always believed that he could also be used by her brother against her own son!

  She mentioned this before to her father and her father only told her she's overthinking but look now, the boat turned and what she was cautious about really did happen!

  Her older brother, Julius Ming, before he married a lady from the Tang family already was in love with a commoner woman their parents were so against.

  However, her older brother was so persistent to be with that woman and she even supported that because that means, if their parents finally lose patience, it won't take long for them to remove Julius Ming from their family.

  She was already pregnant then with Rudolph Sy and already starting to pave the way for her unborn child. However, Allia Ming overestimated her influence over their parents and finally after four years, Julius Ming returned with a three years old son.

  Seeing their only son with a grief-stricken face and a crying three years old grandson, their hearts softened after years of separation and longing and they accepted Julius Ming back.

  It turns out, that woman died of cancer and Julius Ming who lost the love of his life could only run back to their parents because he knew he was emotionally weak and didn't want to hurt the son with his beloved woman so he wanted to secure his safety by returning back to the Mings.

  Years later, slowly, Julius Ming recovered and since the lady of Tang family had long since liked Julius, albeit already having a son from another woman, she persuaded her parents to allow her to marry the man.

  The two families settled the marriage and Julius Ming, who could see that the Tang lady is a kind woman, accepted the marriage thinking that his son, Joshua Ming would need a mother figure growing up.

  Fate is sometimes harsh to others and sometimes, it's gentle to some. Years of marriage and the lady from the Tang wasn't lucky to bore a son for Julius, only three daughters. Since Julius

  Ming already has a son, this does not bother the Ming elders. However, it's different with the Tang lady, feeling threatened for her daughter's position in the family.

  But having to witness that her husband Julius treated her with respect and care, she, for her own and daughters' sake, started to accept this fate. Aside from the fact that her adopted son, Joshua really looked up to her as his own mother and even was loving of her, the boy grew in heart as years passed.

  Seeing how biased their parents are towards her older brother and how peaceful their family is, Allia Ming couldn't accept this. And since then, she had been distant and lukewarm to her nephew, Joshua Ming and even she was the one who reminded him of his true origin. That he was not the Tang lady's son but from the outside woman.

  Rudolph being a Sy while growing up became the apple of the eyes of their parents while Joshua, having to understand his disposition started to be distant from the Ming family. But since the Tang lady sincerely acted and stood as his mother, he was still very filial towards her and doting on his three younger sisters.

  When Joshua was about to enter university, he made a request to be sent abroad to study. And since then, Allia Ming didn't try to get information about this nephew he treated as a bastard because she was over-confident that the Sy's influence won't shake her son's position in Ming Corporation and even dared to dream of taking the Sy International for her son!

  But due to her own son's weakness, even the Ming Corporation was lost from his own grasp.

  Money turned to stone.

  And now, she's right here making a scene in the Sy International's lobby because she desperately needs to talk to Rawlf Sy for his help. At least for his brother, Rawlf Sy must do something for his younger brother not to be totally deposed from Ming Corporation right?!

  Allia Ming, whether she admits it or not, knew the extent of Rawlf Sy's power and influence so with just his words to return Ming Corporation to Rudolph, his younger brother, she doubted that her parents would even argue.

  Allia Ming, finally losing her patience, started to act arrogant. Her kind and gracious façade is uncovered.

  "Do you know who I am?!" She pointed towards the receptionist. The receptionist finally losing her patience as well replied,

  "Madam, I don't know who you are but please leave now. I'm sorry but I'm only doing my job. Sy International's prime rule is, "No appointment to the President, no entry", I already checked with

  Secretary Ryan and he said that indeed, you have not reserved an appointment. So please leave now."

  Allia Ming, hearing the secretary's name, replied in an arrogant manner. "That's right. I know him. Let me talk to him instead!"

  The receptionist once again sighed,

  "Madam, secretary Ryan is very busy at the moment. Please leave now or else--,"

  "Or else what?! You stupid woman! You are just a receptionist! Do you know who I am?! I am Allia Ming! I am Robert Sy's woman!"

  After Allia Ming said these words, the atmosphere inside the Sy International lobby turned silent.

  It is indeed a common knowledge that the former President of Sy International, Robert Sy has women outside marriage. And one of those is Allia Ming. Since both families are powerful, to talk about this fact in public is a taboo unless they want to meet their ends.

  This was Rawlf Sy's arrangement because he doesn't want his mother to be laughed at or talked about in public.

  But right here, right now, the known gracious mistress finally lost herself and said this taboo scandal involving herself, screaming out loud and without shame.
