Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess

The conference room was filled with people dressed up formally and listening to the presenter with full concentration. This was the meeting to finalize an ongoing merger. The higher-ups of both sides were present and the person in charge from both sides was briefing the others on the highlights.

In such a pressurized and hectic environment, there was one person who sat there in her jeans dozing off in one corner of the table. And obviously, it was Shreya.

If it were before, all the directors from Sri corp would have given her a look of disdain and mockery but after the last meeting where she sacked three of the seasoned directors, nobody dared to look down on her anymore. But it was not the same for the other side. They were angered by her blatant disrespect but then they refrained seeing that nobody else was complaining and who would want to go head-on with The Sri corp. But they still ended up glaring at Shreya every now and then.

Shreya, at last, woke up when her phone beeped and her lips curved at last seeing Akira's name on the screen. She hid the phone under her table and texted back happily. It is not that she was trying to disrespect anyone here but she gets really bored in these kinda meetings. She can study spreadsheets for hours but this… this was a different level of hell for her.

One of the people from the client-side glared at her when the phone beeped all over again. He was a bulky guy. His eyes flared with anger. He was one of the founding directors of the client's company. Since he had been in the business for a while now, he had a few year's worths of acc.u.mulated ego and arrogance in his belts. So he couldn't contain himself anymore.

"Don't you have manners??" He asked angrily looking at Shreya.

That's when Shreya actually looked up from her phone. Her eyes looked around found that all the eyes in the room are on her and she was, in fact, disturbing the meeting altogether. So she stood up with a guilty face and apologized politely and sincerely.

"I am so sorry… Really sorry… I didn't realize. Please excuse me. I have to take a call…" She said slightly bowing and stood up to leave.

But the guy was not ready to give it a rest. He started talking nonsense at the top of his voice.

"Who do you think you are?? All your seniors are sitting there discussing something so serious and you rookie dares to doze off and actually dared to leave the meeting in the middle to chat??"

"I said I am sorry," Shreya said again stopping at the door to the conference room. This time around there was no politeness in her voice. After all, growing up as the heir of the biggest company in the country gave her a healthy dose of arrogance too. She had been rude and she had apologized too. So from her point of view, she had done nothing wrong. And she wouldn't blow down to anyone when she was not wrong.

"What's your sorry worth?? What do you think this is?? Your house?? You can come and go as you please?? Some people here actually do work unlike you who just goes around flaunting around her body. Look at what you are wearing to a formal meeting…" His eyes racking over her tight high waisted jeans and cropped top.

When he was done, not only Shreya but even Akash was extremely pissed. If it were up to Akash he would very happily bash the guys head on the table and he was about to. But Anand stopped him, after all, there was Shreya and she knew how to deal with people like this.

Shreya's patience ran off real quick. She looked around and only this guy was shouting away like a clown and she had enough of the guy.

"CEO Shivan… If this guy is going to be working in the company, there won't be any merger happening here…" She said simply ice dripping from her voice and came and sat at the head of the table leisurely. Usually, when this kinda meetings happen Anand never occupies the head of the table spot. Everyone thought it was because of his respect for his late brother. But only very few knew that it was because that chair belonged to Shreya and since Shreya did not like being the center of attention, she always sat in the least conspicuous spot in the table making herself invisible.

But she knew how to rock that chair when the circ.u.mstances demand her.

"Who gave you the authority??" the same guy from before fired away.

"I do own this company you know. I am the President of Sri Corp. Ms. Shreya Srivastav and if you had bothered to do any work at all, you would have known that and I was the one who finalized this deal and came up with the numbers." She said lethargically.

The guy stopped still. He then looked at his subordinate and the puny guy beside him just nodded his head meekly. Both him and Shreya had worked several long nights finalizing the contract while the big bulky guy flaring away just gave it a glance and spoke as if he had put his heart and soul into the contract which was ironic.

The bulky guy's mouth opened and closed several times but no word came out.

"This meeting is adjourned. When you come up with the decision Mr. Shivan, send a word. Hopefully, we can continue with the meeting from where we have left. And if you need a recommendation for his replacement, you should give it to Mr. Samuel there. He knows what he is doing…" Shreya said authoritatively leaving no place for negotiation.

"You can't do that?? You…" The bulky guy tried but nothing else came out. When he looked around, he saw that everyone was now giving him a disdained look. All his ego flew instantly and he apologized.

"I am so sorry… I did not know who you were. Please forgive my ignorance." He said and bowed so low that his head almost touched his own knees.

"What's your sorry worth??" She asked the same question he had just thrown at her just a minute ago.

The bulky guy had no reply.

Shreya was out of patience. So she looked around at everyone and ordered away, "Clear the room. NOW. I need to make a phone call…"

Everyone instantly scrambled away frantically.

Mr.Shivan approached Shreya and said apologetically, "I am sorry on behalf of my employee. You will have a satisfactory answer in a few days." After all, he had just taken up the post of CEO and he did not have the authority to sack a founding director just like that. And on top of it all, he was still young so his decisions are often looked down and needed to be justification.

"The only reason the deal is still open is because Samuel and I had worked our asses off here. But this grace is open only for a short while." Shreya said and dismissed them.

The bulky director stood there tranced seeing his assistant receive a personal visiting card from Shreya and exiting the room leaving him behind.

"Do you need me to call the security??" Shreya asked irritated.

The guy came back to reality and scrambled away too.

Anand's lips curved as she leaned in and pecked Shreya on her temple before leaving the room while Akash gave her a very enthusiastic hug.
