Dai's POVThe contract signing isn't my main problem with this Business trip but the fact that the woman who drives me crazy is being so sweet and cozy with another man. Mr. Laurel seems to be a ladies man and he's got a gift of complimenting women excellently plus being a very sweet talker.Mr. Trump didn't tell me he was a young man in his mid thirties and a Ladies man at that, Lia seemed so comfortable with him all day, they kept chatting at the factory like long lost lovers and worst he wants to take her to see the Eiffel tower. It was the last thread holding my anger, I couldn't believe Lia had gotten so close to the client and decided to accept his invitation to go out. I feel a little guilty for all the things I told Lia yesterday, I admit part of my anger was steamed by the alcohol I drank. I feel like cancelling the contract but this won't be good for our company's image and my partner will be disappointed.As I take a bath my mind drifts off to the incident between Lia and I

"Hello Mr. Japana, nice seeing you in Paris" Hana says smiling with a hint of sarcasm, almost like she's got an issue with me.

We'll be required to travel frequently to France to set up the website and mobile application and other details for the stores.Dai has been in my hair with his sweet apologies but I can't stand down just because the man is being a romantic. I admit I was surprised he could be this romantic and could actually keep his big ego in his pants and apologize to me.I was really hurt by what he said about me being a gold-digger fishing after wealthy men. It really cut deep in my soul. As much as I really like the man, I can't give him another chance.The whole office now knows My Boss has an interest in me and most of the guys keep clear away from me.

Dahlia's POVMr. Japana left in a hurry and I wonder what the phone call he received earlier was about, I've been anticipating his return and it's been two hours since he left. I want to tell someone about my conversation with Mr. Trump yesterday but I can't cuz he asked me to keep it a secret.I can't even tell my girls cuz it's a dying man's last wish and I can't be insensitive to that. I contemplated telling Dai, since he and Mr. Trump are partners and also like father and son, but I can't. Maybe he's aware of everything and he's probably the one drafting the marriage contract as Mr. Trump's Legal representative.I am not interested in the money or shares Mr. Trump is offering me cuz to be honest I didn't earn them.The day runs by fast and I didn't notice it was past 5pm, Dai didn't return and I still haven't made a decision.
