Philip's father walked up to his refrigerator as he surfed through it's content after opening it. He looked through the contents of the refrigerator and then took a full glass of wine and two glass cups.
With that, he turned and walked over to the sitting room where someone was waiting for him on the couch.Mr Raymond was sitting in the couch of the sitting room while staring at the news Going on on the TV. While Philip's Father arrived at where he was sitting and kept a glass before his table. He then poured both of them some drink and then sat down too to stare at the TV.The news playing had nothing to do with them so they weren't overly invested in its content."So how's it going? How do you expect the suggestion you have made to be a thing? How confident are you about it?" Mr Raymond said as he took the glass of wine in his hand and Slowly sipped it though.He looked towards the direction of Philip's father who was staring at the TV.Sun had interpreted to Leo what the CEO had just said now..and after translating to him, Leo let out a soft smile and then continued."Then please tell the CEO my direct words right now" Leo Said as he began "Tell me...That I have something that he will certainly want. Something that his company is lacking. Being someone who has done my research on his company's affairs and more, it's pretty obvious to say that I know some flaws that his company is facing. For example, The Africa trade establishment Section. And tell him that I can help him with that" As soon as Sun said that, he raised an eyebrow as he hesitated a little While staring at Leo. And then he slowly turned to look at the CEO with a calm smile."What did he say?" The CEO questioned as Leo began in Chinese."Well he basically said that..." he hesitated as he looked around for a while. He was still speaking in Chinese "It's a bit hard to say...but he actually said that..."He h
"You don't have to leave now, because whatever he said now are just staged lies and nothing worth believing" Leo said. This time not In English, neither did he say them in Chinese.But he spoke in JapaneseAnd as soon as he said that, The CEO of the company came to an abrupt stop. And as he stopped, he slowly turned to look at Leo who was sitting down there calmly.Sun on the other hand was shocked and confused. He looked at Leo and then at the CEO who had just stopped. He didn't get what Leo had said and he didn't even know the language he was speaking.So he was basically lost!He looked at Leo and asked, in a rather desperate tone "What did you just say? What language is that...? Why did he stop? What's... what's going on here?"He wanted to get what was all happening here. But it doesn't seem it was that easy to understand. Because Leo knew what he was doing at this moment.Leo's spoken Chinese was good..but it wasn'
The CEO had Looked towards the direction of the confused sun and then looked back at Leo again. And this action left the CEO in more confusion.He didn't know why the CEO had just looked at him! And he didn't even know what the stare was for! He needed answers but he wasn't even getting any and that was bothering him now."And how am I supposed to trust you on anything?" The CEO questioned."Because I am genuinely here to help you with your business and not to insult you. So don't take whatever she said to heart. You see...she doesn't even understand what we're saying. Talk more of knowing what's going on" Leo said The CEO looked at Sun and looked at Leo again. Sun was feeling uneasy and didn't know what to expect anymore from the conversation happening before him where he didn't get the deal of the talk."What's going on here...Mr Leo... What are you two talking about now...?" He questioned Leo. But Leo simply stared at him with a smile."Nothing much. I'm Just having a business ch
"It was indeed good having this conversation with you.. I'm looking forward to our collaboration then" Leo Expressed as soon as the handshake was over. He still had that smile over his face while staring at The CEO.They were still speaking in Japanese as Leo added "And what are you going to do about your dear employee here?" Leo asked while staring at the CEO.Leo continued "I mean, he is the one who wanted to end our deal even before it started. With misunderstanding and mistranslation. So I wonder if you're still gonna let him stay.?" He raised an eyebrow at him.The CEO Sighed as he said "Don't worry about him. I'll handle him as he should be treated. And I apologise for what he did. That was pretty much irresponsible of him"As soon as he was done talking with Leo, he stared at Sun who was still sitting there and wondering what was going to happen to him next.He could already tell that he was in a huge mess. And there was likely no
"I mean for someone who presumably had success in the mission given to him.. shouldn't he at least call you first to tell you about it? Then why isn't he calling you at all?" He inquired.Philip's father hesitated as he stared at his phone without saying anything for a while. And then he finally spoke after some time. "I'm guessing something came up and distracted his attention or something...So I'll have to call him and Remind him about it. So wait let me do the calling"Philip's Father expressed as he got out his phone and placed a call. The call rang for a while before Sun picked it up himself."Oh hello sir..." the Sun's Voice from the other end of the line said. It wasn't as active as he knew it to be. But rather it was shaky and unstable. As If something bad had happened... And that was what Philip's father was afraid of."So? What's wrong? Have you successfully executed the mission I handed to you? What's the outcome?" He inquired as Sun's
Leo thought through Katy's question. He Wondered if he could guess the person who was perhaps responsible for this..but he didn't think he could. All the people he could think about just didn't match with his logic of Linking. So he couldn't tell if they were responsible.."I don't know" Leo said "I don't think I know anyone responsible for it. I'm yet to find out who could be responsible for it" he explained further.Katy sighed with a nod "Ok. Because I actually have someone in mind who I'm not sure could be behind it at all. I'm not even sure of this person but I didn't have a good feeling about him at all" she explained.Leo's Curiosity was pricked as she asked "And what's it all about?" Katy hesitated but explained "I can't say if it's true or not but I heard it as rumours..I heard that Ray Ed...Has gotten out of prison..." Leo paused as he stared into thin air for a while. He didn't need to scan his head through much to be able to
Leo Could already guess that strange people have been approaching him ever since he entered this country for business. So he Wondered if they had something to do with the plan to bring him down? Were they all sent by one person?He forced a smile as Phillip's father approached "And...who are you? How may I be of help to you?" Leo asked him."Well I don't know if you remember me...I'm one of the Executives discussing in the meeting room right now. So I was there when you made your presentation and all" He explained.Leo Slowly nodded with a smile "Oh, now I see. Nice to meet you then..." he smiled as he stretched out his hands for a handshake..that was Leo being alert.Philip's Father accepted the handshake "Sure sure sure. nice to meet you as well""So...I wonder if there's anything you want to talk about? Since you wish to meet me?" Leo asked him directly. Waiting for him to answer."Well about that. I wonder if you will agree t
The two of them stared at each other for a while. One could feel the atmosphere which was basically cold and sharp. It wasn't friendly at all because both of them were obviously not on good terms while staring at each other.They clearly hated each other."So? Let's hear it" Leo crossed his legs. Basically waiting for him to continue what he had wanted to say. He was waiting for answers.But Philip's Father casually smiled as he said "I don't think there's an excuse for it here. And I don't have to give an excuse to express my disapproval of a project. The idea here is that I don't find it satisfactory at all and I already feel like it's not suitable for the company's image. So I think that's enough to air my view" He had a cold expression as he spoke. Cold enough for anyone listening to know that he was serious with his words.But Leo didn't find it serious at all. Rather he found it ridiculous how he too was also part of this so-called line that was after him and his stay here. The
