Chris settled on his desk, while Yue Wang couldn't get over the interior decors of his office."Not bad." She managed to say as she sat on the couch at the other side of the office, tossing her handbag on the other side of the couch.The knock on the door disrupts the peace of the office decorum. The large doors were pushed open and his secretary came in, she glanced at Yue Wang who was sitting comfortably on the couch with the corner of her eyes as she walked up to Chris, placing a file on his desk."Sir, here are the articles you asked for." She said with a smile on her face, twirling her hair."Hand it over to my assistant," Chris said without sparing her a glance as his immersed attention was on the paperwork he was going through."Assistant?" The secretary repeated in curiosity as her eyes settled on Yue Wang who was helping herself with a cup of coffee. A nervous chuckle escaped her lips as she smiled in relief. "I'll do that, sir." She took back the file and handed it over to

At Evans Group, news reached Lawyer Raphael that Richard had declined the offer of him being the CEO's lawyer. Lawyer Raphael couldn't accept the offer either because his workload as the senior lawyer of Evans Group was too much and he enjoyed being a senior, rather than being a lawyer under the CEO. Even though it was a promotion on his part he couldn't accept it.He summoned Richard to his office and immediately the latter came, Lawyer Raphael closed his laptop and went up to meet Richard who was leaning in the door unfazed."I heard you refused to work as the CEO's lawyer." Lawyer Raphael stated, trying as much as possible to cool himself and maintain his poise."It wasn't my utter motive. I meant with the CEO and he told me to decline the offer myself." "You met with the CEO?" Lawyer Raphael asked immediately, he processed Richard's words in his head and busted into a peak of hilarious laughter. "You want to cover up with that false story?"Richard regretted in an instant why he

Chris left the bar with immersed frustration and anger and even ignored the waiter who wanted to give him a VIP card for being the first to order such an expensive wine from their bar. The waiter didn't mind the fact that he was ignored he thought Chris would be back some other time and he'd eventually accept the card.Meanwhile, Chris wasn't in his right state of mind. He locked himself up in his car and didn't know if he could drive safely home. He needed time to think and was already wasted due to the hard alcohol the wine contained.Larry's name kept lingering in his head. He shook his head severally, trying to get the thought about Larry off his head. "He would be a hindrance to all my plans." He muttered under his breath, resting his head on the window, as tears threatened to fall down his eyes. He raised his sleeves and rubbed his fingers in his mother's bracelet, letting the tears from his eyes for being such a disappointment.He managed to reach his phone and called Cosmos to

Chris was taken aback by Yue Wang's words. The way she seriously blurted it out made him surprise even more. "Do you know the chairman that much to conclude this way?" A low laugh escaped her lips. "Yes, I do. And I know him enough not to have any hopes about the both of us getting married. I knew he had his plans for me just as he told me.""Huh?" Chris raised his brow, Confusion etched on his face. This wasn't the Yue Wang he knew. The happy and cheerful lass seemed scary and too serious. For some reason, he blamed himself for sharing all his burden with her which he thought made her seem that way. "Can you explain? What happened between you and grandfather?""You see..." She stated as she started narrating how it all started between her and the chairman.It all started with the day he came to visit her father's company in China. It was her father Mr. Wang who invited him over for a business meeting."I'm so glad you came Mr. Conrad." Mr. Wang welcomed Chairman Conrad with a bright

"The lipstick on your lips is rough," Coldie said, halting in his steps as he leaned closer, pointing at the lipstick stain on the side of her lips.Embarrassment washed over her face and Chris however, spilled his hot coffee on the servants who was serving him his breakfast. Noticing the havoc he just did, he immediately apologized.The servants bowed and ran away to get her faced washed while Chris hid his face, lowering his gaze on his food as he ate in silence."Com'on, it shouldn't be that bad." Yue Wang tried to laugh it off but Cosmos remained unfazed.Chris tried to steal glances at the both of them who were in an awkward position and Yue Wang gave him some signals asking for his help but Chris was guilty for whatever Cosmos said about Yue Wang's lipstick. "Fuck! Do I have any on my lips?" He muttered under his breath, rubbing his lips with his thumb but he was relieved when his lips came out clean. He stood up from his seat and headed to where both Yue Wang and Cosmos were s
