When Shun taking over the management of all Empire Hotels own by Chairman Nicholas Crow, he chooses the Empire Dragon Hotel in Southern Asia to be the main office.

This hotel is in a huge messed and Shun transforms it completely. Run by a syndicate Director, the hotel was known in High Society as the home for escort entertainers and the drug is like just a daily food for rich people.

To clean this hotel, Shun closed it for a whole month. When the hotel operates back, he used the 71st and 72nd floors as the Offices and the 70th floor as the suites for the Executives and Board members that would stay during important meetings and overtimes.

Daichi entered to this 3000 square foot wide suite with three bedrooms, a living room, a minibar, a kitchen, then a full toilet/bath/laundry room.

Wearing blue jeans, sneakers, a gray T-s.h.i.+rt and a leader jacket, he changes his clothes into a black leader shoe, black pants, a white long sleeves polo, then a black and white striped coat.

After the mirror satisfied of his looks, he marches outside toward the private elevator for the executives and board members. The moment he steps out the lift, the employees' bows and greeted him.

"Good afternoon, Director Isagawa."

"Good afternoon," he answered in a very serious tone. This is his usual self when it comes to his duty.

"Director Isagawa, sir, please read my reports in your table."

Daichi stopped then take off his sungla.s.ses. "What's the matter? Isn't the a.s.sistant Director I a.s.signed to look at them during my absence and important a.s.signment?"

"Yes, sir. However, the a.s.sistant Director runaway with someone else girlfriend last night. And he just called me to submit the resignation letter he emailed to me."

The young man in front of him began s.h.i.+vering. He must be nervous to receive a lecture on behalf of the a.s.sistant director. d.a.m.n it. He has some guts huh? Daichi thought.

"Okay. What is your name?" He asked him then reached out his ID. "James Sanders. Alright, James, go to my office then sort out all the reports from major to minor cases."

"Me, sir?" He pointed himself.

He nods. "Yes, you." He taps his right shoulder. "Don't go home until am back. I'll read them this evening then I will call for a meeting."

"O-okay sir! Have a good afternoon, Director!" James bowed then run towards the elevator.

Daichi continue walking to the Lobby of this hotel when he spotted Captain Ming, the Floor Security Captain.

"Captain Ming, how is it going?"

"Director Isagawa, sir, good afternoon." He bowed. "So far, everything is under control Director, except for a few serious matters. I already place the reports in your table."

"Alright, I'll read them when I am back this evening. Also," he turns around to face the captain. "bring me all the files of qualified to replace the a.s.sistant director. If you like to apply, you should."

Captain Ming scratched the side of his face, near the ear. "I'll think about it, Director Isagawa. I prefer to stay in my position but, I will consider thinking about it. I will also recommend other capable for the position."

"Great!" Daichi resume walking to the hotel's entrance. "I need it ASAP."

"Understood, sir."

***

Daichi makes a long stride towards his metallic red Range Rover Velar park outside. The waiting boy who brought the car in front of the hotel bowed to him. He thanked him after he gets inside his car.

He now blended into the traffic then take the road toward The Peninsula Garden. The moment the Wait employees saw his car, they right away lining up on the side and bows when he gets out of his car.

"Good afternoon, Director Isagawa!"

"Right, the afternoon is truly good today," he said while looking up the sky. "Good work!"

"Yes, sir!" they answered together.

One of the waiting boy walks towards his car then get inside to park it in the area reserves for Executives.

Daichi entered the building and the employees greeted him. He exited in the left wing where a solar golf cart waiting. The Peninsula Garden is full of different flowers that bloom in different seasons. He suddenly misses Ca.s.sie. One day, he will bring Miss to see this place.

The solar cart stopped and Daichi jumps off. He trailed the Garden pathway and entered inside the Gla.s.s Garden. The people inside are crazily busy. The crew began installing the stage that base on the theme of the show.

This 10,000 square meters Gla.s.s Garden filled with real trees and flowers inside. He slowly walks towards the stage when his presence was felt, he stopped in the middle and stand still. He put his left hand on his pocket and partly glance on his right shoulder. He takes off his sungla.s.ses and pause.

A few clicks to be heard. After the photographer satisfied, he checks the photos and raises both of his arms to give him two thumbs up. John Lewis is an international photographer mostly hired in this kind of events and paid a promising amount. He was a great photographer impressively caught a perfect human picture.

Yes, they know each other. The two men throw a knuckle to each other before John returns on taking pictures of the present models.

"Daichi!" a woman suddenly jump on him.

"Bella..." he throws his arms to catch the woman who hangs on his body. "Hey, why you never grow up? You still this tall?" he teases the woman.

She unhooked her arms on his neck then she gives him a powerful elbow on his stomach.

"Ahhh..." he touched his body where the woman hit him.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

Daichi laughs hard and catches the punches Bella throwing.

"Is this how you thank me?" Bella pouted. She truly short like 5'2 feet but she has all the a.s.set any woman would envy.

"Hmm... look at you! Isn't how marvelous I am?" She gestures her hand from Daichi's upper body then down below. She's the one who makes this suit Daichi now wearing. Bella just designs this coat for Daichi and no one else in the world who owns it.

Bella Thompson is the owner and designer of the famous Bella Collections that wear by many celebrities and royals.

Back in Paris, Daichi and Bella are where they met. One night she was on her way home from her Art cla.s.s, she was hara.s.sed by some French residents, and Daichi saves her...that's how they become a very good friend.

"So, do you want to join the show? Like the old days."

Daichi shook his head. "No. I am here to make sure the Security during your Fas.h.i.+on Show." This show will be attended by many from all over the world.

"Come on! I should have the best Asian model on this show."

"Lady, I was never been a model," Daichi denies, even if he has a huge photo displayed in Bella's main store in Italy.

"But you did walk for me back in Paris," Bella tried to convince him.

"And that's when I don't have money. I was forced to help a friend."

"Really!? So that's forcing!? Then I will force you to do it again!" Bella shouted.

"Eh? No, I won't!"

"Yes, you will!"

"No way!"

From the distance, Blaire shook her head while watching them acting like a child. She glances at Claire who throws dark gazes to Daichi.
