A month has passed, so we decided to go back home and face the problem we are dealing with.
We decided to first check in a hotel when we arrived.
We eat in the lounge and rest in our room.
Early in the morning, I called the office.
" Hello, is Ethan there?" It's Mr.Min, I'd like to speak to him,please?"
" He is still not here yet,sir?" " Oh,I see."
" I will call back later,thank you." I said.
" Love,who are you calling?" It's too early for office hours?" Jinah said existing our bedroom.
" Ethan,I thought he's there early. I call back later." Want some breakfast?"
" Ok, let's call for delivery. What do you want,love?" Pancakes,coffee,choco latte,or me?" Smirking to him.
" Gi!" It's too early for that?" Pancakes and coffee. Drizzle with syrup and two sugar for coffee."
"Ok, same for me.."
After breakfast, We go back home. The house is clean but gloomy.
We settle our things in our bedroom closets and arrange things into places.
The following day. Jinah went back to his work and I went to the office.
" Welcome back,sir. How's the vacation?"
" Good and relaxing." Is Ethan here?" I asked.
" Yes,sir." She said.
As I went to my office, before I opened the door,I heard that he's talking to someone on the phone,I think it's a woman.
" You've got to convince Mr.Min to give you that money." She said. " I'm working on it but give me time to say to him, it's not a small amount of money."
" He's here. My secretary told me."
" Ok, I will give you 2months." If you don't give me what I want, I will personally tell him."
I quickly hid in an open room. I saw a woman in her early thirties walking away in my office.
And Ethan pops his head to see if there is someone there.
After he closed the door. I came out where I hid.
I simply knock at the door. He opened the door as I let myself in.
" You look surprised,Ethan?" Is there something I must know about?"
" N-no..everythings alright,sir." Why back early?" I thought you said you'll need at least 2 months?" He said.
" Sometimes there is a gut feeling that I need to go back and face what's going to happen." I said.
" Tell your secretary that we will have an urgent meeting this afternoon. This is about my position here and yours too."
"Now?!" How so?" Can we do it tomorrow, Gi?" I'm in a hurry. I need to do something."
" Why Ethan, is something you don't like me to know?" I said as I walked closer to him.
" You're sweating?" I chuckled.
" N-no..I'm not?" Ethan said as he wiped some sweat in his head.
" Ok as you said, go to your secretary and tell her what I told you,go now."
" As you say, Mr.Min." He bowed and left.
Before the meeting started, I called Jinah.
" Love, I will be late tonight. I will have a long and heartfelt talk to my constituents and workers." I said to him.
"Ok, please do not overdo yourself. Eat." He said worried.
" Don't worry love,I will do what you say."
I said.
"I'll call you when the meeting ends." Bye,love." Love you."
" Love you more,Gi."
As the meeting went on,many of them were shocked by what I revealed to them.
" As you all know, I am a man of secrecy.
I never mention to you who I really am. You only know that I am your boss, who gives you salary and pays your overtime."I said to them.
" You all know that I am a single, billionaire. Who dates no one until I find my true love."
" But until, someone burglarized my home.
They didn't took anything valuable but they bugged my house."
" Oh my God!" Who did that to you,sir?
"Did you find out who they are?" They ask me.
" I have my doubts about who they are but still they are out there,waiting."
" They need something to oust me in my position as the CEO of the whole Min corporation."
"What is it, sir Min?" They said.
" My..sexuality." I answer.
"WHAT!" YOU'RE..WHAT!" They all shouted.
" Me,who I am."
" I want to be honest with you all. From my janitor, gardener, staff and even a higher position in this company."
" That I am..GAY." I said to them while looking at each and everyone.
" Sir Min.. we..all know that!" We know that you are gay!" They said, chuckling.
"You're gay?" Ethan said to me surprised.
" How does this happen?" You're joking,right?" He said.
" I'm not joking,Ethan. It's true, I'm gay.
"It's true many beautiful and rich women follow and flirt with me but I'm not interested in them."
"Now,I'm honest with you all. Please be honest with me. All of you."
" You can all go now."
"Ethan,can you stay for a while,I need to talk to you." As other employees and staff exited the meeting hall.
"Sure,Mr.Min." he said. When they're all gone, I confront Ethan.
"Sit down,Ethan." Gesturing to sit in front of my table.
" Would you like some wine,perhaps?" I asked him as I poured an amount of wine in my glass and some ice.
" So,Ethan, tell me,who is that woman who just exited my office a while a ago?" Don't deny it because I saw her?" I said when I stood in front of my full person's window.
" Sir?..um..s-she's my..wife." he said in a worried tone.
" Wife? Oh, come on,Ethan. You never had a wife."
" Why lie,Ethan? You never had a wedding ring in your finger. If you had a mark that you had worn it? Did you?" I said facing him.
" Who is she,Ethan? Don't lie to me. I heard you two talking before I walked in here."
" Gi..she' s truly my wife..we've been divorced a month now." She needed money for my children." He said in a scared tone.
" You didn't tell me that you're married and divorced at the same time. Why hide it from me?" Questioning him as I sit at my table.
" Because I want to. Our marriage is a disaster. She always demands money. She was never home."
" My kids are in my house with a babysitter. They go to school, well fed and they are happy without their mom."
" They asked about her but I say she will never be back to us but she'll come around eventually." Ethan said.
" Now, she knows where I work and knows that I work for you." So she demands money,more of it."
" I don't know how to tell you. I can't demand an increase in my salary. So I ended up loaning in a loaning company."
