Chapter Thirty-Three

"I'll Be Your Fool? "

Natasha's POV

The next morning, I pretended as if nothing happened, as if I wasn't bothered, as if I didn't care. This time, Bee Na made effort. He came into my office, looking uneasy at first then settled down. I payed no attention to him, I just kept writing. He dumped a document on my desk just to get my attention.

"We have a foreign potential partner coming today. We've been trying to get him on our team for a while now but we haven't nailed him yet. That's everything you need to know about him" he said then pointed at the document

"You have a secretary? Why bring this in yourself?" I said as I smirked and relaxed on my chair

"This is quite important. Read it properly" he replied and left.

Bee Na's POV

The document was an excuse to see how she was doing. I wanted to know if she was okay or hurt and she seemed okay to me. I'm stupid right? One minute I wanted to hurt her and the next I wanted to know how she was doing? I thought about it for while standing outside her office then left.

I went to the conference room and met with mother and the potential foreign investor. He was from France but he spoke Korean well. At that time, he was probably in his early 30's. He had a lot of money for his age and mother had been trying to get to him.While I sat, I tried paying attention to their conversation. He bluntly refused to sign a deal with mother.

Few minutes after a lot of calm arguments, Tah Shay walked in. I didn't really notice her outfit before but she looked great. When she sat down, Mr. Luiz, the potential foreign investor couldn't take his eyes off her. Mother talked and talked but he didn't pay attention. He smirked and licked his lips as he watched Tah Shay reading the document I gave her early that day. It was totally irritating to me.

"What do you think? Should I agree to this?" he asked Tah Shay

"Ani! It's just another way to get your money because I noticed you won't make a lot of profit." she replied and mother gave her a death stare

"Ah! Beautiful and honest. I like it. So what should I do?" he replied

"How about this? Throw your money to us, but not to Gateway, to a special resort that Gateway will establish for you. That way, you'll make a lot of profits" Tah Shay continued

"So what you're saying is, I give gateway my money to make profit instead of them profiting from me?"

"Vrai!" Tah Shay replied in french

"Vous parlez bien le français? (you speak french well?)" he said

"Oui, mais nous ne devrions pas les laisser de côté (yes but we shouldn't leave them out)" she said

"Alasseo. We should also have a date so we can talk more" he replied and my eyes widened

"Ani! This is a perfect opportunity to talk me" I intruded

"Ani! How about lunch?" mother said "Tah Shay you can't refuse our visitor's offer. Have lunch with the man"  she added

Tah Shay nodded in agreement and the man took her out for lunch just immediately after the meeting. I couldn't stand the feeling of not being around her after she kissed me again in my office day prior to that day. I followed them to where they had lunch. They talked for hours and they kept smiling.
