9 This is not Princess' Hours

'I'm doing this for you, Son. The shareholders of the company lost their trust when you didn't attend the important meeting with our new investors 2 weeks ago.' Uncle Park stated.

Wait, what? Jason not attending a meeting? But he was always busy working though.

I looked at him, while I raised one of my eyebrows. He looked back with apologetic eyes and nodded.

Oh... that was the day that they fought. Wow, I never knew that Jason can be that stupid.

'Uncle, Mom.. Dad.. do really have to do this? A sinple business partnership should be enough right?'

'That's not how it works, My dear. Remember? Your Singers trust the music you make for them, that's how you make each other successful. The same goes for the shareholders who makes up a company. They need to trust each other and work with each other to make the business grow. Since they can't trust Jason right now. Marrying him off to you will seal the deal. That way, even if he accidentally neglects his duty again, they're confident that our company has their back and will save them.' My dad explained.

[Accidentally neglects his duty? lol]

After a few minutes of  silence...

'Okay. I understand. We'll do it. We'll get married' Jason said.

My parents and Uncle Park nodded in approval.

But my mouth was hanging open.

'Can I talk to him for a second?'

I dragged him outside...

'What the hell were you saying there , Jason? You love somebody else! You promised Claui that you'll introduce her to your parents this year. I don't want to be caught up in this mess!'

'Then what do you want me to do? Step down on my position as the CEO? Hundreds.  No, Thousands of people are depending on me. I can't let them down.' Jason explained.

'Alright, then. Let's do it. Let's get married. But, we'll make a contract, with full terms and conditions. ' I said.

'Okay, let's do that. What are your conditions anyway?' Jason asked.

'I have alot of them. But first, let me tell you this: while we are married, You are not allowed to continue your relationship with Claui. I'm not that generous. This ain't 'Princess Hours', Jason. No third party should be involved in this marriage or else, I'll be the one tearing your company down!'

Jason was just staring at me. He was shocked but he nodded.

'Good. Let's go back inside. My parents and New Father-in-law is waiting for us' I smirked.

And so this journey to a married life with my bestfriend begins.
