2 The Prince is Coming

The next day, the dark prince went to Aires Royal Corporate Square to meet Lue Han, the CEO of Ether Company, to discuss the Aqua Illusion Beach project that was going to start in the next couple of weeks. When the news got out in the morning, all the employees were in their best mode yet nervous at the same time.

Many female employees were always in the process of catching a glimpse of the dark prince who rarely ever made appearances, even in the corporate itself.

Some employees had been working at the Royal Corporate Square for several decades and never once ran into the prince. The king and queen rarely brought the prince to Royal Corporate Square until the prince took over Aires Royal Corporate 7 years ago. Yet even when the prince came to work, only his confidants could enter the floor he worked on.

The Royal Corporate had a designated back passage that went directly to the floor where the office of the prince was at, which only the royal family and their confidants could use.

The 80th floor was the royal family's floor. The entire floor was perfect, similar to a penthouse, with a swimming pool, sauna, spacious three bathrooms, and three bedrooms, a living room and a balcony. The 79th floor was the one where the guests were welcomed. It had a lobby area, kitchen, conference room, and work offices for the royal family and their confidants.

There was a concrete helipad for helicopter landing on the roof. The helipad was big enough for 2 helicopters, with one helicopter on standby at all times.

Aires Royal Corporate building had three wings. The middle wing was used when the royal family came to work to discuss events and oversaw the current project of the country. The east wing was for the Ether Company that dealt with project planning and executions. The west wing was the one where the politicians worked. The current king was usually over in the west wing with the politicians discussing current political issues.

Every time the prince took the front entrance to work, the news would be announced to the employees so they could be in their best behavior.

The prince was taking the front entrance this time and not the designated back route. He usually chose the front entrance when he planned to meet business partners to discuss projects that would benefit the country, and sometimes just to see how the front-line staff was doing.

A while after the company hours started, a first-class black limousine drove up to Aires Royal Corporate parking entrance. The entrance door attendant waited for the limousine to stop before opening the door, allowing the prince to get out.

A slender leg stepped out of the car and smoothly landed on the ground, and then, his whole body emerged out of the limousine. The prince was wearing a custom-made, pure solid black suit that seemed to make his golden eyes stand out mysteriously emitting a distant aura. With the naked eyes, one could tell that his body was exceptionally sexy by his tall figure and toned body.

The suit was made specifically for him, enhancing his masculine figure, making people unable to get their eyes off his tall, toned body. He was mystically handsome, even the air around him radiated a mystifying aura.

It was said that anyone who looked in his eyes for too long could get enchanted and lost in their own paradise world, for his eyes beamed like gold and sunlight intertwined together. When looking at him while he stood in front of the sun during golden hours, his eyes shone like gold gems but at the same time, exhibited sorrowful sadness beyond the distant galaxies.

Once out of the limo, he lightly nodded at the door attendant. The prince was known to be kind but distant. He usually always nodded in acknowledgment of a person or service being done and signaled with his hand when he had to command. He did not talk much and never liked his personal space and boundary invaded by others, thus the dark prince.

The dark prince stood up, looked straight at the door and walked towards it. After he entered the building, the employees who greeted guests already lined up and bowed to the prince and in unison said, "Good morning, your highness!"

The dark prince again nodded at the greeters and kept walking towards the main elevator.

Behind him was his right-hand man, Long Kue. He had been with the prince since the prince was eight years old. The prince did not keep many people around him. The more people around… the more headaches and chaos. If any, Long Kue understood the prince the most, what the prince was thinking even without the prince uttering a word.

In the elevator, Long Kue swiped his badge and said, "Prince, your meeting is in one hour. I have prepared the files of the Aqua Illusion Beach Project, all the contractors and the phases of the project. Lue Han will elaborate more in detail when he comes over."

The prince moved his head upside down once to acknowledge Long Kue's explanation. Just then, the elevator door opened on the 79th floor and the two men made their way out of the elevator. As they walked past the lounge, Long Kue ordered the secretary to make some coffee for the prince while the prince went straight to his office. He wanted to look at the documents prepared by Long Kue before the meeting Lue Han.

Ten minutes later, Long Kue brought in some coffee for the prince. The dark prince liked his coffee in dark roast, no cream or sugar. The more bitter… the better.

Sitting at his desk, he flipped through the documents and came across the profiles of the contractor who would work on the Aqua Illusion Beach Project.

On the paper, his eyes came across SNYS Consultant, specialized in interior designing, construction engineering, safety and security from Lyon. The profile picture had two female photos, Su Na Song and Yu Sha Yang.
