PRISONER OF LOVE LOVE THE WIDOWER

THE SEASON 2 Part 30. Meet The Brothers 2's

"Brother Shim turns out Brother is here too." I go ahead and greet him first. Now I wish he could introduce me. Although I most likely thought the older one was Derrick, the 30-year-old was definitely not his brother.

"Oliver, glad you could come here." But he didn't move to introduce me. I had to go side by side, to my older brother. The rules are old, I guess. I'm seven years old in Hong Kong definitely learned something about them seeing older age.

"Thank you for giving me the chance to be here Sir Derrick." The older man laughed.

"Young Man, Brother Derrick is next to me, I'm Joseph Man, one of Sandra's friends too. It's nice to meet you."

And now this young man, how could such a young age be called Big Brother?

...** Koko Derrick for more jutek face 😤😤😤🤣...

He looked at me with a flat look. This guy in front of me I'm not sure he's older than Sandra, he looks younger, no wonder why Sandra likes him, the supervisor and CEO of several Hong Lung companies in Southeast Asia. A respected position in the organization, with a face that may be much younger than its age.

"I didn't expect that someone called Sister by Sandra was so young. Brother Derrick is happy to see Brother."

"I'm 47 how old do you say I'm young?" He greeted me not standing up from his seat. He obviously doesn't like me. I'm wrong to say right now, are they carrying guns. Maybe this gang put a gun on me, I'm not gonna get killed but Derrick wants to hit me I think.

"I'm 44, sorry, I mean you look so young."

"Sit down." He showed me the chair in front of him. It's fitting that he was in the middle, this time I messed up because I was wrong to think plus he would take me not seriously because he didn't know him at all.

"Before I brought a gift for Brother Derrick, thank you for being given the opportunity to meet Brother." I've been thinking about this sentence, discussing it with Nguyen he said this kind of sentence is good.

"Hmm, thank you." May that gift save me from the mess I've made.

"Everyone says the Derrick Brothers are younger than their age." Brother Shim helped me melt the atmosphere, while Derrick was still completely without a smile for me.

"Brother Shim, Brother Man, I'm sorry I didn't know there were two of you, next time I'll bring you a gift of meeting."

"Not to be called, we're all friends and family."

"I haven't considered her family, Joseph, he forbade Sandra from asking me for help."

"really? Ohh you sure you can handle Kent?" Brother Shim immediately asked.

"I might report to Philip, dealing with it straight away obviously I lost the fighting skill. But if the boss himself intervenes it might help, but I'm here to help Brother Derrick, I'm wrong to have banned Sandra, it's because of my selfishness. I apologize to Brother everyone."

He looked at me with his hands folded on his chest. Don't talk if you're not asked, I remind myself, so I don't talk first, otherwise he'll cross my name and 0% chance I'm accepted.

"You're a US citizen, right? How long has it been in HK?" Derrick began to ask. I feel like I'm facing a job interview.

"It's been 7 years. Already in office here, I used to work in Dallas, Dallas where I was born." I answered what was asked, not daring to take the initiative to lead the conversation.

"You're divorce?" The next question is personal. But yes, he should know.

"Yes, it's been about nine years, we've been divorced because my wife who is also in the office with me is having an affair with my coworker."

"You think the fault in divorce is one-sided? So because your wife cheated on you blaming her?" He continued to corner me mercilessly.

"Maybe I'm too busy with work. No, but for me commitment is commitment. If I am too busy, I will compensate for the time. I decided not because I completely blamed him, but because I couldn't accept him and my friend stabbing me in the back." Derrick silently heard my answer.

"No children?"

"No, the two of us had previously agreed to childfree."

"Childfree, you don't like kids." Brother Shim asked. "Is our question too personal for you, let's just say it's an introduction, if you mind answering it don't have to be answered."

"I don't mind answering. It used to be that both my wife and I focused on our careers at AECOM, some projects require staying somewhere else sometimes for months, we took the decision together we didn't want a child and focused more on both of our lives."

"Ahhh so." Brother Shim who looks a lot of smiles seems the easiest to talk to.

"I hear your reputation is great." Derrick is a person who likes to corner if he doesn't like you apparently.

"Yes for a while I don't believe in relationships anymore. Choosing to be friends with many women."

"And Sandra?"

"I don't dare come in front of Brother Derrick, Brother Shim and Brother Joseph if I consider Sandra a temporary friend."

"Why is Sandra finally?"

"Because of the many women I like personally, I don't feel targeted by her, she hates me at first, my own fault, she said, until we finally met again and I thought I wanted us to have a better relationship, I wanted to work on a better relationship with him when I asked him to come to Hong Kong as my personal bodyguard, but I admit my way was wrong, ..."

Derrick looked at.

"You know Sandra's an orphan."

"Yes, I know."

"She told me about it."

"You don't have a problem with Sandra's background?" Now it was Brother Shim who asked me.

"No, I'm not questioning that."

"What about your family? You're a successful man, maybe your family demands a certain standard. Sorry I'll be frank, if your family doesn't accept it better you just undo your intention to approach Sandra. If for you family isn't important, you should know we consider family important."

"For my previously unacceptable behavior I apologize, it was my fault. But as for my life choices at an age where I can decide for myself, Brother Derrick, my family has never interfered with my personal choices. We Americans have to get out of the house when we're 18."

"Hmm I'm leaving the house at 15, ..." Joseph Man snatched my words.

"I'm 16, .. but coming back at 38, I need 22 years to repent." Shim told me his part. Everyone laughs. Everyone has their own struggles and stories.

"Well, you know Oliver, we all have our own stories. But family, best friends to us are each other's shelter. And Sandra was our little sister, when she was so traumatized and we didn't know what it was like to owe her..." Joseph said it now.

"We don't know how you're going forward it's up to you. But if he says you're playing him, well, there's a price you have to pay." Brother Shim and Joseph who said something to me at last, it seems they are not against my relationship with Sandra.

While Derrick is still considering his thoughts.

"I'll meet Boss Philip tomorrow at lunch. Come along, you were also intidated by that damn Kent. Actually this matter is unlikely to make it down from any position, but if based on our rules, core members should not hurt each other. What the core members meant, was that we had already sworn an oath to each other as brothers. At that time I thought Sandra was safe in HK, I left her with my brothers, we all took the oath. This should be resolved with the rules in place. If he tries again to touch Sandra, the next thing will be different."

"I understand, tomorrow I will come with Brother Derrick."

"We all thought Sandra was still working in Hong Kong, still under Kent, she always greeted us every New Year via chat, we didn't know she had moved to Singapore, plus moved jobs." Brother Shim explained. "Five years ago Yan Han and Kimmy were still in Hong Kong. But we didn't know he had a problem with that damn Kent. Until now it has just been revealed." Joseph now shared their memories.

"I also did not expect Brother, .. Now I feel guilty not seeing him first. And that Kent bastard assigned me to Macau." Joseph added.

"Sandra made a mistake not daring the story. That damn Kent's been torturing her in such a way, brainwashing her. He's gotta pay for this. He'll pay for it. I put Sandra in private with him, I didn't think she'd treat him that way." Derrick looks furious.

Just like that the food came. The waiter serves food at the round table, some kind of meat, maybe 7-8 kinds, but they don't eat nas, because there's a kind of miso that I don't know the name that counts as a carbohydrate.

"Let's eat, . everything we said we told you. I appreciate you daring to come here. But about you and Sandra, it's both of you. Sandra will decide for herself. But I won't stand in your way..." Derrick finally spoke. He's not in the way, which means I got the green light now. Maybe Sandra can also forget my past mistakes

"We were a group in Kowloon, there were 7 people, before I was assigned to Singapore. They were mostly out of Hong Kong, only Joseph was still in Hong Lung Macau, and Shim was living in Hong Kong, the others were still in Hong Lung but not in Hong Kong anymore." Now Derrick is taking us out to eat while chatting.

This dinner session started, I thought they were going to sit down and have a drink and interrogate me, it wasn't like that. More conversation flowed later, maybe not all about me that Sandra told me was ugly.

I won't see him four days from now. Before I could see him every day, now I lost him. I spent two weeks badly.

I went back to finish Bill first. Nguyen said I should have the initiative without being told.

"Servant, please bill." Brother Derrick who took the bill turned out. He has the highest position here.

"Ah, I paid for it. Consider me my gratitude for being accepted and invited here with Brother all."

"Ohh..." Derrick saw.

"Well, this Sandra candidate does know manners. Nice-nice. You seem to be reliable..." Brother Shim patted my shoulder.

"Brother Shim, I haven't been to Brother's restaurant, I'll be there."

"Of course take Sandra she hasn't been there yet, I'll tell her the full address."

"Of course Brother Shim."

Finally the meeting is over. Brother Shim and Brother Joseph came back first.

"Brother Derrick tomorrow I'll bring Brother here?"

"Yes, 11:30, you're here."

"Good."

"As for Sandra, be careful if you push her too far. He's traumatized by Kent, once you make him uncomfortable, he won't hesitate to leave like he did yesterday. I didn't know if you'd make it or not, you two would."

"I understand, he believes in Brother. I hope Brother Derrick can give him a look, I will try to improve my own attitude."

"I'll tell him. But you remember he complained about you, you'll take responsibility yourself. So treat him well if you care about him." He patted my shoulder.

"I will's..." He nodded with my short words.

"Come by 11:30 tomorrow."

"I'll be back then."
