The Heiress

"Where is my new secretary?!" Cheng Ming-hùa suddenly shouted

The start of this month had been stressful for him. Everyday, he had to interact with people without anybody understanding him. He even had to speak a lot for them!

"Um! I'm here Mr. Cheng, I'm sorry I'm late!" a woman with audaciously long lashes huffed out. She had a caked up face that now looked disgusting as if she had come from trash and a very tightly fit suit that rubbed on her skin. Her eyes fluttered whenever she looked at him and her face clearly showed her feelings for him. Disgusting.

"There was a traffic jam and...umm--"

'hmph, completely different from Anna! She would never show such a disgusting sight!'

"late?" after that word, he scrunched up his eyebrows in annoyance "you're fired"

the woman who just got hired and had prepared herself fully all morning had shown her shocked face.

"but..but Mr. Cheng! you can't do this to me!" she exclaimed

"I can" he glared at her "I just did"

he pressed the button on his telephone to call security, soon, the woman was taken away. He didn't even bother for her name.

"I want a proper one hired by tomorrow, the standards set should be like Anna Lin!"

Security Guards: ahhh this is already the fifth one

the people who worked for him: boss..why did you send Ms. Anna away then?

but of course no one would dare voice out their thoughts, fearing in provoking this devilish king.

...

With no one to clear his schedule or even make appointments for the day, he left the company and drove off.

A familiar tune rang in his ears, his grandfather was calling him. Picking up his phone, he was prepared to get an earful of complaints

"Grandfather"

"hmph! it's good that you still know you have a grandfather! All you do is work and work! Is your wife going to be work too uh???!?"

"..do you need me for something grandfather?"

"do I need to have a reason to be able to call my grandson, huh?!"

Since Cheng Ming-hùa decided not to bother with the old man's act, his granfather coughed out and went straight to the point

"en"

...

"no" Cheng Ming-hùa said

"what no?"

"no you will not get married or no you will not marry my friend's daughter?" his grandfather asked him in the brink of bursting into anger. It all started when he was welcomed by the butler that he was confronted with a fuming grandpa telling him to get married.

"no to both"

"you..!!!" he fumed but then a while later, his grandfather sighed slumping on his chair "Ming-hùa, this grandfather of yours is growing old too fast. Before I die, I want to see your kids. And I'm jealous of my friends who are enjoying their great grandchildren's companies"

"I will take my marriage into my own hands, grandfather" he saw his grandfather's sadness so he consoled "but I will find one as soon as I can"

Cheng Shi Fei's eyes lit up at his proclammation. Surely with this, his grandson was bound to get married. For now, he can only wait.

"I will get going then, grandpa"

"ahh wait, before you go, I also called you here to tell you that I will be going to China tomorrow for a trip to visit my friend. Until then, you should take care of the company or better yet, look for a wife. Shoo now, this old man needs his rest"

"Take care grandfather"
