"You're always disappointing me, Augustina. You insatiable lust despite you have a fiancé." The man spat and she moved back in terror.

"I'm sorry Dad... It was a mistake. I am sorry."

The man shook his head looking at his trembling daughter.

"You're just like your mother. Insatiable. What are you going to do when Corey heard about this?" He asked then he paused. He glanced at his other daughter and then he spoke up. "I am giving you two weeks to fix this mess you created. I want that contract to be carried out by Mr. Demilade. Only him. Find whatever means possible to make him sign the deal unless you're going back home. And you understand what I mean by that?"

Tina jerks her head up. "No, please Dad. Please. You can't send me there. Please I am begging you."

He glared at her. "I can if you don't clear up your mess. And you have just two weeks to do that. If the project doesn't start in a month, you know what I can do while you're there. You don't want me to do that, do you?"

She shook her head vehemently with tears pooling in her eyes.

"Then do what I asked of you. And you're stepping down as the vice chairman. That post had gone to your sister. She worth that position." He said the last part quietly.

Fiona smiled gladly while Tina looked so disappointed and then she glared at her sister.

"Thank you, Dad. I promise that I won't disappoint you." She smiled, saying cheerfully.

The man nodded, looked at his first daughter, and sneered before standing to his feet. The two daughters followed suit and they watched him leave after saying he would be in his office.

Fiona sat back on the sofa, leg crossed while she stared at her sister with a smirk.

"You know what he can do..." She said trailing her finger on her own face. "He won't say what he can't do. So, Tina, I am going to advise you to come up with something quickly to please him."

Tina was quiet for a while. She just lost her post in the company. Her lifelong dream and she was being threatened with her own hell.

"Fiona, please I need your help." She said turning to her sister.

The latter looked obviously surprised. She never believed her proud sister would ever beg her for a request.

"I have a favor to ask. Please help me."

She heaved a sigh and then she leaned her elbows on her crossed legs.

"I will help you on one condition." Tina quirks a brow. "You won't fight for the vice chairmanship position." Tina frowned and Fiona smiled. She knew her sister won't let the post go easily. She can use her and later come back to get the position. She can do anything to have what she wants. "I know you very well sis. I know what you're capable of. But you know that Demilade doesn't want to see you anymore. I am the only one who can help you. You can get the glory after it, I don't care as long as you leave the position for me permanently. Or you can just have fun in that place back home. "

Tina thought about what her sister said. She was using her weakness against her. And she knew she have no choice.

"Fine. I won't."

"You will sign it on paper."

"Do as you, please. Just help me."

She desperately needed to get their father's approval again and not go back to the hell place.

Fiona smirked. "Of course, sis." She was really excited about it.
