Han Li's father spoke first, he apologized sincerely and told the media what he was planning to do with his son, even though he wanted to punish his son and he would, he still felt he didn't have the right to punish him.
"Han Wei may be my son but he shouldn't have done what he did. I'm not a partial person and I will punish my son the way he ought to be, and I'll allow Mr Fu and the young Miss of the Raj family punish my son anyway they deem fit. I sincerely apologize to everyone who got hurt because of this issue"
"Especially my dear friend who has been with me throughout most of my life. I acted rashly without thinking properly. I'm sorry. But allow me to be selfish and ask you to come back to Han Industries. It hasn't been the same since you left and as for the compensation, I'd like to give 25% of the company shares to Mr Fu".
"I once again sincerely apologize to the Raj family. My ignorance led to the actions my son took. I wasn't a good father, and I raised a rebel and I didn't even caution him. It's my fault, I'm sorry. Anything the Raj family requests for as compensation will be granted, if the Han family is capable of giving it".
After completeing his apology speech, Mr Fu was next. "I have nothing much to say. Of course I accept his apology and I will come back to Han corporation, a strong friendship can't be broken like that. I'd also like to use this medium to announce the engagement that'd take place between my son and Han Li. These kids have been through a lot, and couldn't even have a proper engagement thanks to that same issue but we'd like to make it up to them. And if they're not ready then we won't force them. I hope no on would have issues like this again in the future. Thank you".
One reporter got up and asked, "this question is directed to Miss Emma. Mr Han said he would grant anything to the Raj family, what would you ask for. We're curious to know if what you'd ask for be within Mr Han's reach"
Another reporter continued, "Yes, we'd like to see Mr Han's capabilities since the Raj family almost made the Han family go bankrupt, will it be something big or even bigger than our expectations?"
The air suddenly became tense, and everyone felt uncomfortable. Emma understood the meaning behind these two reporters words. Mike and Cheng also understood the meaning of what they meant.
The three of them had an unapproachable look on their faces, the aura emanating from them was choking everyone else in the room.
The reporters called the Raj family selfish and the Han family impotent.
She looked at the two reporters and they felt the most choked in the room, they felt her looks could freeze them on the spot. They swallowed hard but they knew she couldn't do anything so they ignored her.
But when Emma stood up, they felt like their death was near. They felt cold chills run down their spines and they were about stand up and apologize but Emma spoke first.
Everyone knew that once Emma started talking, no one could talk or interfere so they had to shut their mouths.
"I see you now have the guts to insult the Raj family now. Forget the Raj family, you even called the Han family impotent. For two mere reporters, you are both definitely sharp tongued. I respect that, but you should also know when to use them."
When she said the last part, the two reporters immediately apologized. But she still continued, "of course I respect you guys and the way you do your work but you should also know your place too. It's not an insult but a fact, I'm guessing no one has ever told you that before. You both have reached no where and you still don't know how to bridle your tongue"
"We apologize ma'am" they kept apologizing with their heads down.
"It's all good. But at the same time I'll definitely ask both the Han and Fu family for something in return they can ask for anything they want" she looked at both Mr Han and Mr Fu at the same time. They couldn't read her eyes at all and they were scared they wouldn't be able to give her what she wanted.
"Go ahead dear" Han Li's father was ready to hear what she wanted.
"I want you two to permit me take Han Li and Fu Pei for some months to work for me in Korea". This was unexpected for anyone. Not even Cheng and Mike expected it.
Of course both fathers were okay with what Emma had requested. This was a rare opportunity for them so they would definitely hold on to it.
"You are allowed to take them as long as you guarantee their safety". While this was going the two kids involved were scared. They had no idea why Emma had requested for them but at the same time they couldn't go against it.
In return for taking the two children the Emma promised to pay for the damages she had caused Han corporation in the past.
"I promise to assist Han corporation in the future to increase it's profits and to ensure it's safety". She announced and the reporters got this ready to report it to the public later.
After the press conference ended, Han Li and Fu Pei went over to meet Emma before she left. Emma already knew what they wanted to say to her so she talked before they could, "you guys don't need to worry about the job I have for you. It won't be a problem for you both"
They still both felt unsure so she continued, "I just need you both to keep me updated on things that are trending in Korea"
"I'm confused. You hired us to gossip with you" Han Li asked looking at Emma with a confused expression. Why would she hire people to gossip with her.
"Precisely. But not exactly gossip. Just want to know all the trending things that's going on there. For instance, all the famous parties, I mean galas, banquets, award winning parties like the Grammy awards and other stuff like that. Do you know what I mean"
Ooh that's what she meant, it's still a weird job though but that was Han Li's speciality and Fu Pei's too.
"And of course it won't be a disturbance to whatever you both have going on there before". Who would refuse an offer like this. They were being paid to gossip, of course they'd accept it.
"Okay. Then we accept your offer".
"I'll have someone book your tickets to Korea today. Your flight will be tomorrow. I'll contact both of you when you reach Korea tomorrow. Bye"
When she got out of the conference room she saw a black Bugatti divo parked in front of her car. In front of the car was a 19 year old guy resting on the car and playing with his phone. He had hazel eyes and long hair, he had his hair styled in twists with a few tattoos on his left arm giving him the bad boy vibe.
Immediately he looked up and saw his sister, he rushed into his car and zoomed off. "That rascal how dare he run away from his sister".
After leaving them both at the front of the Han company, she found herself speeding after her brother. She drove at a high speed, keeping pace with her brother and at the same time not letting him out of her sight.
He sped into the open field, hoping to shake off his sister's pursuit. But just as he thought he had lost her, her car materialized out of nowhere, blocking his path. With lightning-fast reflexes, he slammed on the brakes, narrowly avoiding a collision.
He sprang out of the car, his heart racing with fear that his sister might have been hurt in the pursuit. As he emerged from his vehicle, Emma did likewise and he rushed over to her side, frantically checking to see if she was okay. Luckily, she wasn't hurt.
"What was that. Why did you do that? What if I crashed into your car huh? Don't try that ever again". He warned her sternly not to repeat her actions, but his words fell on deaf ears. Instead, she attacked him with her tiny fists, berating him for his sudden departure. "Then why did you suddenly zoom off after seeing me? Is that how you greet your big sis after all this time?" she yelled, her blows raining down on his back.
He bolted away from her, dodging her blows with all his might. But she was relentless, and soon caught up with him, leaping onto his back in a bid to aggravate him further. "You little brat. I'll teach you a lesson". she snarled, as they engaged in an odd, yet intense, fight.
The fight continued until Mike and Cheng arrived at the scene. He quickly darted away from his sister, seeking refuge behind Mike to escape her wrathful blows.
"Mike tell your boss to stop beating this weak kid. Please" He pleaded with Mike, hoping that Mike would intervene and put an end to his sister's assault.
"But why did you run away when you saw your sister. That's wrong". Mike's words hit him like a ton of bricks, making him feel like the whole world was against him so he gave in.
He relented and muttered, "Fine, I'm sorry sister. I thought you'd scold me for coming without informing you, that's why I zoomed off immediately I saw you".
He sauntered over to his sister, putting on a cute act. "I missed you, sister. I want a hug", he said, and she gladly obliged, flashing him a smile.
"Here's a hug. I missed you too, little b"she said, as they embraced. They looked like they had missed each other a lot. Despite being younger, he towered over his sister, giving off an air of maturity that made him look like the older sibling.
