Eric had faced a huge fall out with his partner while working in his start-up company in America. They hadn't seen eye to eye on a few fundamental things. Before he knew it, his partner plotted against him and edged him out of the company's decision making with the help of their investors. Humiliated and cash crunched, he had sought jobs outside the country and had landed up for an interview with Hui.
Hui had bluntly asked him about the reason for seeking employment in his start-up company and Eric had seen no reason to hold back the truth. Much to his surprise, he had been hired and treated with utmost trust from day one. He had never questioned Hui about the reason for hiring him but had appreciated the faith which Hui had shown in him. He had vowed that day to not let the company or Hui down. It had been five years to the day and both men had celebrated their thirtieth birthdays this year, few weeks apart.
