Chapter 31: Chapter 31

At Jia Li's clinic, Madam Jia Li is busy with the report of her patient when her assistant pull the door, she is a simple woman.

Good morning ma!

Morning dear, is there an issue? She asked as she pick another file of her patient, trying to read the report of the patient. Yes! Go on. Urging her assistant to speak.

The thing is, the contract signing of Mr Derrick from Leonard's group had been cancel but the young man is here.

Who cancelled it? I didn't cancel it.

I am afraid sir Dante cancelled it and asked not to inform him, he only said, we should asked he to do a better plan. Her assistant said.

What? That dopey son of mine. She grabbed her phone, to place a call to Dante, Dante smirked as soon as he sees the caller, he press the answer button then go mute. Li Jun! Why did you cancel the appointment of Leonard's group and still insist that he shouldn't be informed?

I only need a better plan.

That doesn't seem so as well, you already cancelled why stress him to do another plan.

Stop feeling sorry for him, he is an asshole.

Li Jun.

What is it mother?

You are been naughty again.

Stop whining, I will send some one competent for you.

Fine, I will just have to dismissed him right now.

No, let him wait there like the idiot he is.

Li Jun.

Stop it mother, it's not personal. Madam Jia Li constant calling of his name is a sign that the woman is suspecting that he is up to no good.

If you insist, how long will he wait before we dismissed him?

The entire day!

Li Jun! Madam Jia Li yelled in frustration, he pushed the phone from his ear and smirked. Fine, you should handle it, I don't care how you do it but you should.

Just leave it to me, ignore him like the idiot he is. Madam Jia Li move her gaze to her assistant.

I don't know what to do, maybe, you should tell him to leave and ignore that naughty son of mine.

I am scared ma! He is going to get mad at me. Madam Jia Li wave her hand for her assistant to leave.

What is this naughty son of mine up to? She goes back to her report.

At about 3pm, Derrick is still waiting for the supposed director, he wasn't in a hurry because it's weekend already, so he decided to be patience with the director, Jia Li's assistant walked towards him.

I am sorry sir for the inconveniences, the director is busy, so she asked me to get the prepared plan from you.

Oh! Here it is. Derrick smile bright like the contract had already been signed, her assistant get the plan then exit the door, coming in more than an hour thirty minutes, he stand to meet her.

Is your director free to meet me now?

I am afraid no. His face darken. She said you got a good plan, close to perfection but it's not perfect, she said you should improve the plan, that is if it's convenient for you because it might take you a longer time, she needs it in a short period of time, and if you not interested you should let me know, so we talk to other companies.

Of cause, I am interested in it, when do she want another plan?

Tomorrow afternoon.

What? It's Sunday.

Yes, that is the reason...

Fine! I will be here tomorrow. If there is nothing else than I will take my leave.

Sure! Sorry for the little inconvenience. Derrick frown, in as much as he hate what just happened to him, he still want to act like nothing is wrong, he is okay with it, the truth is, he is so mad, she didn't even tell him where the fault is that he had to work more on, which means he had to do the plan allover again.

Jia Li's assistant shakes her head, Derrick walk through the exit door, Dante is on phone with his mother's assistant, everything the young lady said is what Dante told her.

Is he still there?

No! He just left.

Good, I will be there by tomorrow, communicate the time to him, I will meet him up.

Okay sir, anything else.

Nope! I will let you know if anything comes up before then, but for now, you got nothing to worry about, I am going to meet him.

Alright sir! The line die off, Jayden watch Dante, pulled the phone from his ear.

We are going to Alaska.

Dante!

Yes, I need to give my sentence to that mania of a Derrick.

Come on Dante.

Pack up, no time for augment, I need to see that look on his face, when he finally lost the contract, then Leonard his father will have his head for breakfast.

Barbara and Kathleen are watching a movie at Kathleen's father villa.

Oh, the movie had to end, so fast.

Barbara, the evening is going to be long and boring, let's go to the club.

No way, I am not going there without Ethan.

That reminds me, when is Ethan coming back?

Tuesday, I don't really know but I kind of missed him.

Nope! You don't missed him, you are gallivanting with Mr handsome, that reminds me, where did you say you met him?

Kathleen, you are getting annoying, since last night, just maybe you want your steward to get the information about him. Kathleen titter.

Ma Kathleen! Sir Jeffery is here. One of the maid announced.

Oh! Go get him here. She bow to informed Jeffrey, Kathleen look at Barbara.

Stop looking at me, I told him that I am here and you are the one complaining about being bored at home, so shut your mouth.

I Know he is not here because of me but you, Jeff will never visit me, even if I am sick.

Stop talking nonsense, he is our friend.

Yes my friend but someone love.

Whose love? Kathleen smile then move her gaze from Barbara to Jeffery.

Hi Jeff.

Hi Kathleen. Barbara turned from Kathleen to him.

Hi handsome!

What's up beauty? Barbara hit him on the shoulder slightly.

Beauty is fine. Barbara pushed him to the couch then place her legs on his lap, Jeff stared at her exposed leg on top of his. What did you get the princess?

You didn't tell me, you are now a tax collector?

Barbara titter, Jeff stared at her, she is surprise that Jeff is looking at her in a different way from the one, he normally do.

Is there something on my face?

No! No! He stutter.

Hey relax, Kathleen want to go to the club, so let's go together.

Isn't it too early.

Fine, let's go to the mall first, karaoke will be perfect, the princess is getting bored at home. Jeff nodded. Come on Kathleen, let's wear something nice.

She dragged Kathleen with her, since she came with her office wears, she have nothing to wear, she had to fit into one of Kathleen's wears.

Kathleen like to reveal her shoulder, which means, the dress as to be without hand, exposing Barbara's entire shoulder and arm, she tie her hair in ponytail, then apply lips balm on her lips.

Come on! Let's leave. Barbara said to Kathleen that is getting overly dress, the young woman like to look good for every occasion, she had this slogan. First impression matter alot. Kathleen walked behind her to meet Jeff.
