PRISONER OF LOVE LOVE THE WIDOWER

Part 60's. Can't Be Today.

“Your work is very good, here the news has spread, now their shares are down more than seven percent in these two days, it's a massive correction.” Philip called me Thursday afternoon. Four days after news of SCI came out. “How Wong Lee Man's son was there.”

“I think quite dizzy, whether where the creditors money in the same turn he, three creditors sent a warning letter of foreclosure was quite troublesome, and because they already know they do not want to budge about the article of fines. While the companies involved in the subcontractors, seem to demand that the due obligations be paid, otherwise the lawyers will continue to pay journalists to vilify SCI, because indeed the basic fine demands are weak, because the, they won't win in court, their contract was made by SCI, but they have nothing to lose because they moved to be our partner.”

“Good, lest they know we're behind this. For a while do not meet with the sub-contractors and creditors you provoked too often, unless you are forced to in 2-3 months. Just focus on your job at Beautysale.”

“OK, understand.”

The report to the boss is done, my work dealing with SCI should be done. This afternoon Brother Lam is coming, Tata will pick her up. And I was invited to dinner at his house, luckily Aunt Yun Lan came along too because I wanted to see Tata's house, I felt I had someone from my family. Saying this to Brother Lam is quite nervous.

I got to Tata's house at 6. He told me dinner was at 6. I entered into the living room, from the front living room the laughing voice of Brother Lam was already heard.

“Derrick, finally you get to.” It turned out that there was not only Brother Lam and Aunt Yun Lan, but there was another man. I don't know him. A young man may be of Tata age, handsome, he speaks mixed English with Canton.

“Ah, you definitely do not know this Steven Lam, still a distant cousin of the Uncle family, despite his relationship from the grandfather path of the brothers, already the fourth generation, he holds the investment chemical company here. Incidentally once one flight, has not met him for a long time, his stay was not far.”

“Ohh hello, Derrick Tan.” Now I ask her why she was invited to this family meeting. Tata looked at me, I saw him, he shrugged.  Obviously tonight I can't ask Brother Lam for permission. And one more reason being invited to this family gathering is quite predictable. To be betrothed to Tata most likely, at least introduced, frankly I think twice now.

“Derrick is almost eight years old. He's already a native speaker..” I laugh.

“Ohh still not, here are many regional languages, they like to mix, sometimes many terms are difficult to understand. But for everyday is already smooth.”

We had dinner later, Tata was told to sit next to Steven, meaning Papa Tata introduced them now open. I can't say anything of course, this is his son. It was not wrong for him to introduce someone he thought was good. Excuse me for the bathroom, Tata's coming after me.

“Ko, stay until Steven gets home.” Tata still wants me to talk now. But I've been hunting unsure.

“Tata, not today. How about we ask Aunt Yun Lan first how. Your dad just traveled a long way, plus he brought people to know to you. How can Koko force a conversation today. Not today..” I explained my thoughts to him.

Shut up now. I had thought that today we would be able to ask for permission but it turned out.

Connect tomorrow....
