A few months have passed since Dora took Reo along with her for her short vacation. It was already 2005 now and not much has happened in all these months except Nemuri's business flourishing by a lot.
Since she was now the majority shareholder of Rand Enterprises, she was easily able to get the changes she wanted. She lowered the prices of the medicine and made it affordable to the majority of the people.
She also started some medicine campaigns where Rand Enterprises would giveaway medicine to the poor who weren't able to afford the medicines. It was pretty obvious that a lot of people didn't like these changes and tried to cause problems but nothing worked.
Nemuri hired the best private military for such campaigns. Getting permission from the President was a piece of cake. Ward Meachum and Joy Meachum were completely gobsmacked when they saw the changes but they couldn't do anything.
Their company was losing a lot of profit but in the political field and publicity field, Rand Enterprises had left the other companies in the dust. The other companies have lost most of their customers to Rand Enterprises.
Harold Meachum was unable to do anything except grit his teeth… after all, he was the one who stupidly decided to fake his death and leave the company to his son and daughter and now they weren't able to stop Nemuri Kayama from making changes.
From all this, the three of them understood one thing that Nemuri Kayama isn't some young mistress with a huge amount of money… she knows how to manipulate the system.
But the Meachum family didn't like it because it was their company and currently an outsider was holding the reins of their company… the father and son duo also didn't like the fact that their profits have dropped… it didn't matter to them that it will help their company on the long run.
Though Joy Meachum was different, she didn't like that Nemuri Kayama owned their company now but she supported Nemuri in her endeavors. She always wanted to make these changes herself but she wasn't able to…
Gao didn't mind any of these changes since it didn't affect her business… yes, she was unhappy but she knew what Nemuri was doing so she didn't mind it. She wasn't like the others… she knew very well that what Nemuri did would help her monopolize the medicine market.
Harold begged Gao to help him stop Nemuri but she just scoffed him off. She was helping Harold till now because he had his uses but after Nemuri took over the company he lost all of his value.
For Gao, only Nemuri was important, and according to Gao, Nemuri was slowly coming under her control… what she didn't know that in all these months Nemuri was slowly taking over her business. Gao's business was almost under Nemuri's control now and Gao didn't even know that.
Gao was obviously in for a big surprise, Nemuri was already planning to take out Gao since the Ancient Hag was completely useless to her but decided to wait since she has much more important matters to attend to…
[POV Nemuri]
After parking my car in the parking lot, I walked towards the building in front of me… I clicked my tongue in distaste… I understand that this is a weapon manufacturing company but that doesn't mean that they shouldn't have a more classy building.
I saw a woman standing in front of the gates while looking at me nervously. The woman was wearing a deep gray business suit and the woman's hair was in between red and blond… so that's Virginia Potts. So, she was the one who is most responsible…
Obviously, I knew about the company… I own 30% percent shares of the company. 30 is a lucky number for me… after all, I was 30 when I started dating Reo and till now the number has never betrayed me… ah… such relishable memories… I had to stop myself from squealing.
I finally arrived in front of Miss Potts and took off my shades. "Ma'am, it's a pleasure to meet you, I am Virginia Potts" the woman said and extended her hand towards me. Her tone was almost fangirlish… hmm, something that must be discussed later.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Potts, I hope that you can give me a brief description of the project?" I asked the woman who frantically nodded her head. It was clear that the woman was a nervous wreck.
"Yes, ma'am. Sure" Virginia said and moved slightly. "Ma'am, please follow me" Virginia said and I decided to follow with amusement clear in my eyes.
"You know… you don't need to be so nervous" I said with a smile. "I am completely harmless… you should relax" I said and Virginia released a sigh and nodded her head and continued walking.
"So, what can you tell me" I asked her with a smirk.

"Ma'am, I cant tell you a lot until you sign the non-disclosure agreement" Virginia said and raised my eyebrow in her direction. Hmm… a non-disclosure agreement wasn't something rare but if she can't even tell me what it is if I don't sign papers seems kind of odd to me.
"Yes, sure" I said and shrugged dismissively… it's not like they could do anything to me… after all, it wasn't something binding, and even if they trace it back to me… I would just need to say that they faked my signature… even in this world Justice could be bought with money.
Since she was unable to talk about anything related to the project I asked her about various small things… she was happy to answer them. If I really wanted I could have plucked out the information out of her head and then Obliviate the incident out of her head… it wouldn't have been a problem but the girl seemed nice so I decided not to do that.
We finally arrived in the basement which needed a code and biometric scan for access. Virginia pressed her thumb on a small pad and only after a second a green light lit up beside the pad. After that, she punched the code and with a clang, the locks on the door opened. Now, I was really interested to see what they were making here.
"Please come in ma'am" Virginia said and invited me inside. I walked in and saw a guard standing in front of another set of doors. The guard was holding some documents and a pen… the man respectfully handed me the documents.
I quickly read through the non-disclosure agreement… it was your run of the mill agreement… nothing special. You can't tell anyone outside what you have learned inside here or you would be facing lawsuit blah… blah… blah… I read it once again so that I didn't miss anything and finally signed the papers.
The guard accepted the document with a smile on his face and pulled out a key and unlocked the door with it. Both Virginia and I finally entered the main research lab and saw that a lot of people were already there… they were discussing some shit.
Ah… shit!! A Colonel is here that means this is a Military Sanctioned Project… well, I shouldn't have expected anything else from a weapons manufacturing company, and since Reo destroyed Trask Industries, the military has to completely depend on either Stark Industries or Hammer Industries.
Hammer Industries is still a small-time company so for bigger and important projects the Military would obviously seek out Stark Industries. Virginia led me towards the front. Oh… from the gathering looks like I am the last one…
"Ma'am, please meet, Anthony Edward Stark, our CEO" Virginia introduced me to the current leader of Stark Industries. I have heard a lot of things about him… none of them are nice but people like him are like that.
"Please call me Tony, after all, nice to meet you, Miss Kayama, you look a lot more beautiful than I imagined" Stark said with a smirk on his face and extended his hand towards me.
God!! I only needed another playboy after me… Lowell was enough for me. Stark is also getting the Dire Misfortune… Can't they simply understand that they couldn't get my attention… my whole being belongs to Reo and he is the only person who can touch me intimately and explore all of my holes.
"Of course, Tony" I said with a forced smile on my face and shook his hand. Even though the smile was fake, I have gotten so used to it that now it looks completely normal.
"Ma'am, please meet Obadiah Stane, he is the current vice-chairman" Virginia moved on and introduced the next person.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Kayama" Obadiah extended his hand towards me. I accepted the gesture and shook his hand.
"The pleasure is mine, Mr. Stane" I said with another fake smile.
"Ma'am, please meet Colonel Smith, he is overseeing the project" Virginia introduced me to the Colonel. After exchanging pleasantries with him I finally looked towards the scientists who were working on some kind of laser.
"So, what exactly is this project?" I asked curiously.
"We are trying to make a powerful laser in simple terms, a laser so powerful that it could bore holes through buildings in a matter of seconds" Virginia explained and I simply nodded my head.
This must be because of Reo, after all, guns are pretty much useless against him so they need a new kind of weapon to fight him…
