Plans for Tan Law Firm

"He's already here. Lets go."

Luka said after some silence, raising the window .

"Right away young master."

The confused guard was taken off guard by the news but immediately did as he was told. 

The convoy of four vehicles left the airport and headed to the Cheng family building.

Somewhere in an ocean covered in ice, a small sea plane landed in the freezing water that has just been cleared. Next to the sea plane was a large black metallic tower that protruded from the ice, cold and imposing. On the tower were several radar, radio and warfare antennas, and below them huge black fins protruded slightly over the ice, with only parts of them being exposed. 

When the sea plane landed, an old man in a light white Chinese tang suit alighted together with a woman dresses in traditional oriental cheongsam. The huge slits in the tight fitting dress left her white pale legs exposed to the harsh weather, but it did not affect her in the slightest.

The old woman and the middle aged woman had alighted so fast from the plane that it only barely touched the freezing water, and using the same momentum flew away without landing.

The two stood on one of the fins, and before them stood several people in a half kneeling posture. 

"Greetings Chairman Wu."

The half kneeling people's voices resounded breaking the tranquil yet imposing sounds of ice cracking and contracting.

"Arise. "

Chairman Wu said indifferently as he led the way into the submarine through a barely visible hatch covered in snow. Followed by the oriental woman, the other seemingly war veterans followed behind them.

At the same time the submarine hatch closed, Michelle Tan closed her bedroom door after a refreshing shower, and went to her study immediately turning on her desktop and laptop as usual. Today they seemed to take longer to boot, and she found herself tapping on the table top impatiently. 

In less than a minute, they had both booted up, and after logging in she immediately opened her email in anticipation. She had many new unread emails but her eyes quickly scanned the senders names till she found the one she wanted .

In the next fifteen minutes, she realized she was in need of another shower. Her joy had left her sweating the more she read the terms of the contract from Sheba. It was as if the contract was specifically made for her. Very advantageous to her and despite not being disadvantageous at all to Alex, it did not benefit him much more than it did her. 

Despite having developed an illogical blind trust and faith in the mysterious Mr. Cruz, Michelle still exercised caution and she had read and re-read all the terms. Having realized there was nothing wrong with the contract, she immediately printed it, signed it while recording an audio visual evidence of her signing, scanned the signed copy and sent it to the email of Sheba.

A moment later, another document with two signatures was sent back to her, which she downloaded and kept in her vault. She was ecstatic.

As she was smiling happily preparing to go soak herself in the tab, she received a message through her phone and laptop that she had received a hundred and fifty million dollars. 

"What ?So fast? Wait. I never sent them the company's bank account. How do they have the company's bank account?"

Michelle Tan asked rhetorically.

However, she did not dwell on it much because she was not new to the means of the really powerful. Before investing in someone, these people usually do a thorough investigation and a mere bank account number is nothing.

Immediately, Sheba texted her to confirm receipt of payment and to congratulate her. As she was doing this, Sheba has already sent very enticing offers to the best lawyers all over the world. Through her means , she was able to scan the internet and knew of the best of the best lawyers, from all walks of life, genders, ages and fields of specialization. Human rights, divorce, environment, etc. 

A woman named Jane Adhiambo in Kenya, Africa had just been fired by her boss the previous night after refusing to compromise on a certain case that her boss had been bribed to drop. To relieve her stress, she had gone to the country's second largest city of Mombasa to relax for a while after learning that she had been blacklisted in the whole country's law industry. It was here that she received Sheba's offer, and the pay in the offer was to be twice her previous salary.

The offer was simple. She would work for Tan Law Firm in Singapore, but she had to attend a two months compulsory training in the main office in Singapore, before she was allowed to come back to Kenya and alongside others from Kenya, establish a Tan Law firm branch in Nairobi Kenya. Whether she would be the branch manager would depend on the internal exam at the end of the two months compulsory training. The ones with the highest scores would be the branch managers in their respective regions. The plane ticket and accommodation in Singapore would be taken care of.

From all over the world, the underprivileged yet geniuses in law were the ones who got these opportunities. Not the arrogant lot who had been at the pinnacle and would come to cause internal strife in the company.

Michelle Tan had also been notified of this and was to set the exam. Later, hundreds of undervalued lawyers all over the world were in a frenzy, and the number of people searching for Tan Law Firm in the internet were in the thousands. They were all led by Sheba to a website she just created, the official website of Tan Law Firm. 

Everyone's doubts can be resolved once you visited that website. Even Michelle Tan was surprised when she received the link from Sheba.

"They must have a huge team of expert programmers to achieve this."

Michelle Tan thought and was even more satisfied with her decision. At this time , her daughter Annette Tan had already fallen asleep despite it being the afternoon.

Annette has a weak body and she sleeps too often , about three times a day, almost more than half of the day is spent sleeping. Her incredible mental capability is very taxing to her young body and she also have to eat high nutrition food daily.

As Michelle Tan soaked herself in the foamy water in the tab sipping her wine, she muttered softly .

"You all thought kicking me out of the family I will starve to death right? You will never expect not only did I become stronger and more capable after changing my identity. Once I am strong enough, you will all regret what you did to me."

A cold light shone in her eyes as she tightened her grasp on the wine glass in determination.

When a convoy of four vehicles stopped, Alex realized they were in Forbes Town Center, a high end community with a high rate of living. They were in the front of a tall building, and after casually looking at it, the door to the underground parking opened slowly and the convoy disappeared inside. 

"Mr. Cruz, we're here. This way please."

Luka Cheng said gesturing for Alex to follow him to an elevator marked 'PRIVATE ACCESS'. With his fingerprint and iris scan, the elevator opened and an animated voice welcomed Luka Cheng by name. Only the three of them, Alex, Luka and Zoey went up.
