Ms. Attractive and inciting CEO Chapter 222 - Hate and Friction

Chapter 222 - Hate and Friction

Jean stopped at Scott's mansion before she go back to Grey's. As she will be having some time to continue writing her thesis, she decided to take some of her references to her grandparents home and work there.
The way Enric acted with Jeff is somewhat suspicious but she didn't think much about it. The deadline is around the corner and if both of them work together it will be very easy to finish it. If she wants to directly work under Madam Valdez on her next research, she must reach some criterias.
Deep in her thoughts, she didn't notice five pair of eyes gaping at her as she entered the living room. She is about to go to her study room when she happened to notice that Scott's room is lit up with lamp. Wondering who it might be she pushed the door open.
Shawn is talking to someone on phone while searching for some files. When he saw his amazing sister-in-law looking at him with amus.e.m.e.nt he chuckled.
"What is Mr. Perfectionist doing here? Isn't he supposed to be spending time with his family now?" Jean teased as she entered the room.
"My bad luck sis. I am thrown out by your fiancée to attend his meeting and also my father's meetings. No one helps me you know," he exaggerated every point like always.
"You should keep your boyfriend in control. I am a bait for him to use in his absence. I am ordered to work as his substitute for ten days and other ten days for my father during house warming ceremony." Shawn poured all his grievance in taunting his sister-in-law.
She is the reason his brother is taking vacation for ten days, while he will be beaten black and blue by working day and night. They will be spending romantic time in their new vacation spot. He swore to find his soulmate soon and take some holidays, just like these shameless people does.
Jean laughed heartily at his gloomy face. He looked so funny with his lips curled down and eyes fluttering like a cry baby. "If you want more work I can also give my INA to you. When I will be busy or somewhere else you can look over it," Jean teased him. But little did she knows that it will come true.
Not for some little span of time but for solid one year. He will be burdened to shoulder the responsibilities of both Cyphers and INA and at the same time on behalf of his brother and sister-in-law who will not be able to work anymore.
"Mercy, I am human not work robot. You can have your INA all to yourself. It will be like a war zone," Shawn panicked. He doesn't know that it will be as peaceful as heaven with harmonious relation between all the employees. Little did he would have expected that he will find love of his life in his sister-in-law's company.
"Fine.. Fine, if you really need help I will be always there for you. Don't hesitate to ask," she patted his shoulder and smiled at him.
His heart softened seeing his soon to be sister-in-law care for him. He decided to help her when she will be needing his help, that would be probably soon.
"Sis, why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be with your grandparents now. Is there any problem?" he asked with genuine concern. Whenever he see his big brother happily smiling because of her, his heart became more and more fond of her.
"Yes, I am. I came for some things, so I will be leaving now and take care." Jean kissed his forehead and patted his head.
Shawn smirked. Though this kiss is nothing but a little token of their growing relationship as brother and sister, it is still enough to make his vinegar eating brother drown with jealousy .
"Wait, I am almost done. I will walk you out Sis." He grabbed his files and laptop and exited the room where some former executive directors of Summer's Enterprises are sitting. To be precise, gawking at the conversation they just listened.
The mortal enemy of their company is the soon to be daughter-in-law law of their boss. Does that mean INA's CEO is daughter-in-law of Summer Enterprises boss and wife of Cyphers boss. Isn't it little unbelievable when these three companies are in neck to neck competition in almost every project and the rivals of the business world.
They still remember the chaos when the country gone through when it was revealed that the rivalry company of indestructible Summer Enterprises, Cyphers is the company of CEO'S son. What will happen if the history repeats again? But this time it will be more chaotic, with three top most rival companies who belong to same family.
When they saw that this woman is none other than Jean Grey who became trending woman of socialites, they almost choked on their saliva. She is often praised by other businessmen who attended the conference Grey's conducted two weeks back.
When Jonathan Grey (Jean's father) was the CEO of Grey corporations, it was rumored as the tough competitor of Summer Enterprises. They have indeed fought for almost every contract at that time, just like how Cyphers and INA are competing now.
How can they underestimate Jean when she is the sole daughter of deceased business genius Jonathan Grey. She inherited his calculative and business mind. It is no wonder, she successfully climbed on top of business world. Jonathan and Elder Grey are opposite poles of business world, who hated each other to their core. Although Jonathan didn't harbor any ill feelings Old and stubborn Summers did.
Only few of them know about the intensity of friction and hate these two companies shared at that time, though Stephen Summers took it in casual way. It was Elder Summers who made it a big issue.
One of many times like this, Black corporations suddenly changed their flag and betrothed their only heir to Grey's, rather than allying with their family friends who are Summers. This increased the rift between the Grey's and Summer's even more.
Elder Grey hated Jonathan and his calculative mind. He misunderstood and decided himself that, Jonathan was the one who spoiled Elder Black's mind and made them betray the long time friendship they shared between them.
But no one knows that Elder Black, he himself took that decision and written it in his will before he died. No one knows the reason except two women in both families, from whom one of them is in coma and other women died long back
How can Elder Summer agree for this marriage, if he knows that Jean is the only daughter of his mortal enemy Jonathan Grey. Even if a miracle happens it is still uncertain…
