224 To give in again? (2/2)

”What it means to be a friend? But we are friends, best friends, aren't we?” Mika asked back in puzzle.

Ryn sighed. Why did she start with the meaning of friendship? Mika would be puzzled with the question because it was a weird question.

”We are best friends, right, Ryn?” Mika was getting scared when Ryn did not reply her question.

Was this the end, then?

”We are best friends. Past, present and hopefully in the future too,” Ryn finally said.

Mika smiled finally. She wanted to hug Ryn in her happiness but the food and the table blocking her. She stood up and prepared to move around the table to do so. Ryn simply stood up and opened her arms, accepting the hug with a chuckle.

This best friend of hers was really spoiled and childish. Oh, what should she do with this girl?

Jeremy put another stop at the mumbling and talking. He was rubbing between his brows, already have a headache from the 'discussing'. Why couldn't they discuss this calmly rather than pointing fingers and blaming each other. Would the blame solve the problem?

No. It won't.

Right now what he wanted was solution, not busy looking for the culprit!

Every pair of eyes were looking at him, waiting for his instruction.

Jeremy silently blamed his father who refused to come to the meeting today. He had to come to the main company on behalf of his father and surprised, surprised, there were several problems with some of the projects.

”Right now I don't want to know whose fault it was or who should take the blame. All I want to know right now is what the solution you suggest to deal with these problems,” Jeremy did not even smile when he spoke. His voice was cold, sending shiver to everyone.

At first they thought when the son came to the office, they could play with him, to show how young he was.

And he even was a singer!

What did a singer know about company matter?

They conveniently forgot about the fact Jeremy and Mika owned a company of their own without the help from the main company. They started the company from scratch but these old geezers thought it was a game for the two kids.

”You come to this meeting, knowing fully well there is a problem with your project,” Jeremy cocked an eyebrow.

Everyone lowered their head guiltily. None dared to smirk or scoft at this young man. They were scared this 'immature' man still 'wet behind his ear 'would find more mistakes.
