Chapter 341 - LOVE CHILD (1/2)

The discovery was shocking because she had not planned on it. Naturally, she intended on telling her boyfriend so that he could take responsibility, and they could get married. However, before she could say anything, he informed her that the family company was experiencing legal and financial trouble due to tax problems.

He asked her to leave Mountain Ridge with him. The problem with the company was not that serious, but the back taxes along with the penalties and fines meant that the business could no longer proceed as usual.  ​​

Her boyfriend was not a core member of the company, so he was not affected a lot. However, the business was acquired, and he had been informed that he could not keep working there. Also, without his family backing him, he would not have large allowances anymore.

She thought about his suggestion to leave and considered it with care. The relationship began as one of exploitation, but she eventually fell in love with him.

The two of them met in a club in downtown Mountain Ridge. The place was a bit crazy that night, so she thought that the man was a careless second-generation who slept around.

However, after spending more time with him, he turned out to be quite a good guy. He was intelligent and caring, in addition to being handsome. If it had not been for his older brother, he would probably have been at the core of the company with his father.

She fell in love with him truly and did not want to part with him.

After much deliberation, she decided to leave with him. With their brains, they could build a good life together. Furthermore, they were going to have a baby.

Once again, things did not go exactly as she pictured. With the decision made, she was ready to share the good news with her boyfriend so that they could move forward.

But on the same day, she received a notification that she had gotten a job at Yama Electronics Corporation. She had applied for the position sometime before, so she did not expect to get the call of approval.

The opportunity confused her once again, and she went back to the drawing board.

Even though she loved her boyfriend, she was not willing to give up on the life she wanted. Mountain Ridge had proved to be the perfect place for her. It was quiet and clean, and everything was high-end.

She did not want to go back to Tokyo or live in other cities where she had to deal with countless people, congested buildings and pedestrian things.

After some thought, she decided to check out the situation at Yama Electronics Corporation. She did not go directly to the company because she did not want to draw attention to herself in case she joined.

Instead, she went to a coffee shop near Yama Plaza. It was a slightly above-average place, so it was a great hangout spot for employees.

She did not learn much about the company operations, and she was not interested in that. She wanted to know the situation with the Yamazaki family members.

Luckily, she saw Kazuo in the shop with some regular employees. As usual, he was quite a snob, and he liked to reward people who flattered him.

After he left, the employees did not wait for long before starting to berate him. Their primary complaint was one. Kazuo was a man who lacked ability, but they had to flatter him as a manager because of his family background.

In their words, he could not do anything, and his ȧssistant had to do his work. The only good thing about him was that he was not stingy. They all sighed in unison.

Their words were harsh, but their attitude did not show extreme dislike. It seemed more like frustration at his incompetence.
