Shun did not answer. He heaved a sighed before he continued.
"The Kang's, and Ca.s.sandra should not meet no matter what. Not yet. I already send someone inside to watch The Kang's movements."
"Also, Landon Young did call his wife's half brother who's living in France. Martin Castillo was asked to look after Ca.s.sandra if there is something happens to them. He was also told to adopt her and change her name to hide. But there are times she forgets to keep her real name a secret. That girl was just fond of her real name." A smile showed on his lips that make his friends dropped their mouth for a second, as he regains his composure fast, and wears a serious face again.
"Martin knew about the UKG shares, good thing he never shares it to his wife. But Lydia learned how Ca.s.sie has a lot of inheritance from other resources. When Martin dies, Lydia changes back Ca.s.sandra's real name for her to claims all her insurances in the US."
"And that leads to the attention with the Kang's. It is not yet time for Ca.s.sie to know. Her life is in danger always," Shun added.
The men in front of him keeping a silence. This man is their friend for a long time, but he still holds a big secret. That's what they've thought.
"Shun, how did you know all of this?" Kier who often curious everything, he can't keep his silent not to ask the questions he wanted to have answers.
"When I was in the US, I meet someone that leads me the story of Young's Family... UKG is one of many companies the Crow invested. It is important for me to know everything since I am the next CEO."
Of course, he is. They knew him at that part of his personality, he won't miss any details.
"You have plans do you?" Rudolf who asked this time.
"Yes. Kier, I wanted you to find a buyer to that house in Hawaii. Negotiate the G Group to sell their shares."
"You want more share in UKG company?"
"No. Invest Ca.s.sie's money to buy the 15% shares of the G Group."
"In this way, Ca.s.sie would own 50% of the shares. She could have full holdings of the company."
"Yes. I want to talk to Daichi as soonest. I have an important job to discuss with him."
Not long have pa.s.sed, the office door opens and Daichi step out inside like out of his mind. He quietly sits in the available seat. Everyone is shocked by his silence. They are just used to his noisy entrance and talking aloud.
"What happens to you?" they asked him.
Surprisingly, he just keeps silent. He still wears a black sungla.s.s. Rudolf took off the sungla.s.s and they all wanted to burst out laughing. Daichi's eyes are burning red. It was like he was from crying a barrel of tears.
"Does Riley dump you again?"
Daichi began crying. Everyone is dumbfounded of his actions.
"Sheesh... can you just tell us what happened to you?"
"Ra... a..."
"What?!" they were impatient.
"Riley... she... she... she proposed to me..."
"Huh???"
"Wait, are you saying?"
"She said, she will retire now and she wants us to get married soon."
"Brother Daichi! Congrats!" Matt jumps on him.
"Hey, bro! Congrats!" Meisha patted his back. The rest also said the same.
"That's great. Just perfect for my plans. Congratulations." Shun said.
"Huh? Wait, did I missed something?"
"Yeah. It's huge."
"Wait! Why you didn't wait for me!" Daichi now gets back to his real self.
"Alright, just read the reports Matt investigated."
They waited for him to finish reading the information.
"Wait? Then? It means?"
"I want Riley in the island."
"Okay, but she wanted to retire now?"
"I want her to keep an eye on Ca.s.sie as a tutor. Ca.s.sie must be prepared for College. We could use it as an excuse."
"Ah... Okay, boss. I understand. But I still can't believe about everything."
Shun nodded. "Prepare to go to the island after you and Riley take care of your wedding details."
"It is fine, boss. Riley and I could make plans while we are on the island."
"That's good then. I want you all to watch out, Ca.s.sandra and the Kang's should never crossroad."
"Is it the reason you offer the contract with the j.a.pan company?"
"Yes. Ca.s.s..." Shun did not finish talking when suddenly the door opens.
"Blaire? What's wrong?" he asked his sister.
"Brother, it's Ca.s.sie." Blaire chases her breath.
"What? What's the matter?"
"I was in the Reception Counter talking to a friend I saw in the lobby. I got to hear our Receptionist talking about a prank call they received an hour ago."
"What prank call?"
"They've mentioned the name Ca.s.sie so I asked them what kind of a call they've received. The receptionist said, a girl looking for you, she wanted to talk to you. But since we often received this kind of calls, the receptionist ignores it. But the girl said her name is Ca.s.sie and the girl also said Master Shun calls me Ca.s.sandra."
Shun has a bad feeling about it. He quickly took his phone on his table and dialed Ca.s.sie's number. It was out of reach.
"What exactly the call!?" Shun yells. He realizes what he'd done. "I'm sorry, I just..." He sighed.
"Daichi call someone at Hiryuu Island. The cla.s.s still going on."
"Okay, I'll call Thomas!"
"Let me check the call records," Rudolf suggested. He created that device to record all the calls that get through to the hotel.
"Better idea."
They all get out of the office that made the other employees wonders what's going on.
They entered inside the Monitoring Room and quickly Rudolf browse the call from 1 hour ago. They've listened to several calls until that familiar voice playing on. Shun feels like, a part of him is waning.
