My Lady and I

A light-hearted romantic comedy between a young female boss and her older female assistant in a realistically reconstructed world of the defense industry based on the authentic experiences of the author. Plot Synopsis: 19yo Hina inherits a mega-corporation, but she is a billionaire underdog facing dauntingly massive pressure to succeed. Her sidekick, Sin, is an older and experienced woman who is a jack of all trades in the business world with a natural talent for improvising and working behind the scenes to make the clockwork tick. To repay her debt of gratitude to Hina’s late father who brought her under his wings and gave her a career in the defense industry, she dedicates herself to helping Hina and protecting her at all costs. The irresistible charm of Hina slowly starts to move Sin’s heart but she is a woman incapable of loving and being loved. However, Hina is an unpredictable force of nature and her nonchalant shower of affection makes it hard for Sin to juggle her ever-so-confusing feelings and professional commitment. The family feud within Hina’s family, power struggles in the company to oust the young heiress, and political landmines Sin needs to navigate with her young new boss make her life and career increasingly more precarious as time goes by.

Makes no sense

"Sin, it's me"

It was quite early in the morning, around 7. I was still in my bed snoozing my alarm. 

"Good morning, Lui. What's the matter?"

"Just letting you know that you do not need to come to the office today"

"Excuse me? Why?"

"Miss Chan is not coming in today, I have been told"

"Is she alright?"

"Not quite"

"What's wrong?"

"She's grounded"

"What the heck?"

"I got notified by Ema just now too and it is true. She's grounded for two weeks so won't be coming to work for two weeks. You can have a little holiday too"

"That's frigging ridiculous! She's the CEO of the Chan Group! And she gets GROUNDED?!"

"It seems Ema did"

Oh…

I remembered what happened the night before.

But still. As childish as Hina could be, she was legally an adult, and well, it's unacceptable that the CEO of the Chan Group gets grounded at home.

"How the hell is that even possible? With what authority?"
