tablish a world scale corporation with over 100 branch offices throughout the world. With all the money and power I've obtained, I still feel like my life lack of something important. Those feelings will only fade once I indulge myself in a never-ending pile of work or when I get too drunk to even function. Sometimes I do have fun with the people I find soothing to be with. Growing up without any interaction with the opposite sex, my feelings were trained to love women rather than men. Of course, at first I feel that something was wrong with me since I was raised in

You should go home. I bet that little gremlin of yours has been waiting for her mother to come home since forever." She gave me a sigh. "I'll ask the maids to prepare your dinner. Please, at least eat your dinner." I saluted. She was shaking her head at my response. "Before I forget, tomorrow we have a meeting with all department head. There are issues with the accounting department." Issues? That's odd. "Alright. Good night Luna." She gave me a smile before closing the door. I continue

"Claire, you need to ask for my permission. But, it's fine. I let it slide just for once." She gave me a small smile before she went to sit on the chair in front of my desk. "So, any news? What's going on in New York?" I asked while sipping my coffee. "Looks like some of the head branches want to do something to make you look bad. The head of New York branch will be suggesting some proposal in the upcoming meeting for all branches. It's best to ignore his suggestion because when I take a look at t

now? I bet your fiancée waiting for you." I tried to change the subject. "He is. But I told him I'll be tomorrow. Besides, I have to pick something up." She replied. "Pick what?" I asked. "Pick this." It happened so fast that didn't even get to do anything about it when her lips on mine. For a brief moment, I don't know if I should kiss her back or just let her do whatever she wants without returning the favor. Maybe ... for a few minutes? Sorry, Thomas, I can't help it .... she used to be my girlfriend. *** "Oh ... I never knew that you both this close before." That voice, it's LUNA! When I open my eyes, I noticed that Claire's putting on he

hinking. "It's fine. Besides, she needs them pronto right? Your quick thinking might save her from the burden." She turned around when I let my towel down and put on my suit. "I'm done." I was about to walk out from the bathroom when she stopped me. "Honestly, you need someone to take care of your needs, El. I'm married now and a mother, I can't take care of you 24/7 like before." I never realized that I always depended on her before. "I don't think anyone would want a workaholic like me. Besides, I'm always busy with my work, I don't think I can give the person I'm with the attention she needs." She fixed my collar before smiling at me. "I think when you find the right person, she will do whatever it takes to overcome that obstacle." She touched my nose before opening the door for me. "We shoul

ays go to when we were still a student? I miss their food." After eating German's food for a week, I need to spoil myself a little bit. "Oh! Madame Lupe's Kitchen? Yea, I miss her food as well. It's been what? Several years since we last went to that restaurant?" I was happy that the traffic isn't acting up like always. "I think we both have good luck today. We even manage to find a parking space right in front of the restaurant!" We both laughed. "Don't jinx it though," I said before we both went out of the car and walked towards the restaurant. It's really packed today but like I said before, we are lucky enough to have a free table! "Maybe we should buy lottery next," Maya suggested. "Or to Vegas." A waitress came to our table and told us the specials for today but we both know what we want. This used to be our favorite place to eat while we're still students. "We both want spicy noodle, extra hot wi

en when Maya tried really hard to conceal her despair, Aunt Lupe always manage to see it, she has the eyes of God! Well, that's what we believe it to be. "How did you ... Ugh, I can't even fool you, Aunt Lupe." Aunt Lupe laughed. "You need to be at my age to fool me." The waitress from earlier came with our orders. Aunt Lupe chuckled seeing our food. "Looking back, we would never guess that you both would be the people you are today. Before, Maya has always been the one who keeps on changing her partner while Blondie here, always buried her head in books even though she's having her meal." We both chuckled. She sounds like our guardian just then. She's like a mo

e you should make an appointment with her. That way she can find any free time for me to be there." Maya gave me her famous 'are you fucking serious' look. "If you don't have the time, I could ask my assistant to take a video of the interview and you can review them yourself." That's actually a good idea. "Alright, we'll do that. I do remember that I have a guest tomorrow coming from Japan. We'll be discussing our new branch office in Japan." Maya suddenly gave me a clap. "Congratulation for that. I never knew that you'll be opening another branch in Asia. No one even believed in your capability when you and Luna started this comp

ced the man stood up and was about to hit Maya. I really couldn't let that happen to her though. I sighed before standing up from my own seat and grabbing the man by the wrist. "I wouldn't do that if I were you. Her parents can be super annoying to deal with once they know that you hit their daughter. Not to mention her brothers will beat your ass up." He forcefully took his hand back from my grip. "Sir, you're not supposed to hit a woman. That's illegal. If she decided to take you to court, you'll be in deep trouble. And I

work there for help. No payment necessary." I added. I just assumed it's her since she's wearing pink clothes. She clearly didn't expect Maya
