Chase Griffin is a 20 year old college graduate, from one of the most powerful family in the country.
Chase sat in the living room of her condo watching TV with a coke and burger in her hands when her phone beeped. It was a text from her grandma, Jennifer Griffin.
[Granny Jen: Dear, I need you to come and see me right now. it's an emergency!! Be quick!]
With a sigh, she dropped her burger on the table and went to her room. took a quick shower and dressed in a simple but fashionable way.
She wore black baggy pants, red tee and white Nike Air sneakers. Coupled with a black neck chain, silver charm bracelet and matching silver earrings.
She picked up her phone, purse and car key, got into her black Porsche and drove to her grandma's hotel as per the request of her grandmother.
Exotic Hotel
Chase parked her car at the underground parking lot and went inside the hotel. She greeted some of the staffs she knew while making her way to the elevator leading to the CEO's office, and they returned her greetings with polite smiles.
She entered the CEO's office and was immediately trapped in the world's most tightest hug. Her grandmother was going to kill her!
If anyone was to see Old Mrs. Griffin, no one would believe she was 56 years old as she still had flawless skin and dresses like she was still twenty.
"My dear child, I've missed you so much. When last did we see each other?" Old Mrs. Griffin asked as they sat down on the couch in the office.
"Last week Saturday." Chase said answering her grandmother's question with an eye roll.
"Exactly! It's been too long"
"So how's the hotel faring? Anything I should know about?"
Chase was the COO of the hotel although she didn't do much except coming to some important meetings and signing some documents.
She didn't want to be part of the business at first, but was forced by Old Mrs. Griffin.
"No, nothing new."
Chase hummed. "So why was I called here? You said it was an emergency. I'm not seeing any."
"Have you heard of Lu Yang?"
"Yeah, and?"
"Lu Yang and I have been friends since college..."
"Wait... you're friends With Lu Yang?!"
Lu Yang was the CEO of the Lu Empire before it was given to Lu Min, his son. Now the Lu Empire had a new CEO, Declan Lu. Nobody has actually seen him, so he remains the mysterious king of the Lu Empire.
Old Mrs. Griffin cleared her throat. "Yes I'm friends with Lu Yang." She sighed
"Chase dear, you're not getting any younger and you need to find someone to spend the rest of your life with."
"What do you mean grandma? I'm twenty, still pretty much young if you ask me."
"Well I didn't ask you." Jennifer retorted. "Lu Yang has a grandson, Declan Lu. He's twenty-five and not yet married, neither does he have a girlfriend."
"Hit the frickin' nail on the head grandma."
Chase said impatiently and Jennifer took a deep breath before opening her mouth again.
