Christmas is just 2 days away. I was busy preparing in the venue when I got a call on my phone.

"Hello?" I answered. It was an unknown number.

"Good day Ms. Queenie. This is James, your fathers personal assistant." a male voice answered from the other end of the call.

"Oh yes Mr. James. How can I help you?" I asked.

"There is an emergency meeting here in the clothing line department of the company. We need you to be here right away if possible." James said.

"Oh is that so. Is there a problem?" I asked curious.

"It's regarding the last fashion show Ms. Julia has hosted a few days ago. We need you here Ms. Queenie." James said with a firm voice.

"Okay. I'll be there right away." I smiled to myself. I ended the call.

"Andrea please let Sawyer prepare the car for me." I said.

"Right away Ms. Queenie. May I know where are you going?" Andrea asked.

"I'm going to the company's main building. There will be a great show and I can't miss it." I said with a smirk.

I was walking in the building lobby when James approached me.

"Ms. Queenie please let me lead the way." James said gesturing me to follow him. I nodded.

We walked thru the lobby to the elevators. James pushed the up button.

"Is my father here as well?" I asked.

"Yes Ms. Queenie. He's already at the conference room of the clothing department." James answered.

The elevator arrived and we entered. James pushed the button to the 25th floor. It was silent in the elevator until we arrived.

'Ping' the elevator doors open.

"James, do I need to know something before going inside the conference room?" I ask. We were walking thru the corridors of the floor. All the employees on the floor are either silent or murmuring to each other.

"There was an issue with the Christmas show a few days ago. We are facing plagiarism issues." James said.

"Plagiarism?!" I acted shock. "But how did this happen?" I asked.

"You'll know in a while miss." James said.

We arrived at the door of the conference room.

"After you miss." James opened the door and ushered me inside.

When I entered I saw father at the head of the conference table. His face was all red in anger. Julia was at the floor kneeling.

There are also a hand full of people present. The old retiring director Mrs. Johnson is at my father's right and her assistant Ms. Erica was by her side. At father's left are two men. One with gray hair and the other was probably my age. If I remember they are from the legal department of the company.

"How did this happen?! Why did we come to have plagiarism issues?!" father was shouting his lungs out.

"Father, I didn't know how this happened." Julia was crying.
