Be my guinea pig

It's been a week since she last heard anything about Sol or seen him. Tulip put all her focus on her work. Currently she is working for Liam as his personal makeup artist, as his is on leave.

"You know that I'm not doing this for free" Tulip said while applying foundation on his face.

"It's okay I will pay you. After all I'm rich" Liam said with a smug.

Tulip roll her eyes at his childish antics "I don't want your money"

"Then what you want ?" Liam said frowning, looking at Tulip face he inwardly gulp and regretted asking her remembering the payback she asked last time.

Tulip evilly smirk, brightly looking at her prey "I want you to be my guinea pig for testing the products that I'm thinking of launching"

"Nooooooo!!!!!!" Liam cried in horror. People around him turn their face to look at him. They couldn't believe an international model crying in horror infront of his makeup artist. They pessimistically look at Tulip thinking she must done something wrong to his face.

Tulip narrow her eyes at him "What no? don't you want your best friend to exceed in her life'"

"No!!! No!! No!! why God why ? I got a heartless friend like her. I have some mercy my lord.....have some mercy" Liam dramatically cried, sobbing at his seat.

Tulip sigh and stood at the corner waiting for him to finish his drama "Stop behaving like a drama queen Liam!" she said rolling her eyes.

"I will behave like a drama queen! You can't make your own best friend a guinea pig! what if something goes wrong to my beautiful face" Liam said admiring his face in the mirror "Such a pretty face, you must be jealous of my looks" he muttered.

Black lines appear on the faces of people working around them. They roll their eyes at them and gone back to their work.

Inside the meeting room.

Sol is accompanied with Mr Anderson and other investors. Sol is standing in the middle giving his presentation.

"Why do you think we should invest in this. Basically what are the profit margin?" one of the investor asked.

"Because Mr brown as we know the land is south side of the city. And the area is underdeveloped but what I have come to know is that the government has taken a project to develop this area because of the crowd in the north side of city. So, we will get the land in low rate. Initially the profits won't be huge but thinking about the long run it will be beneficial." Sol said confidentiality looking at everyone.

Mr Anderson nodded agreeing with Sol. One thing everyone knows when it comes to negotiation Sol is best at it. Satisfied with the proposal they all sign the deal and with that take their leave, leaving Sol and Mr Anderson alone.

Both of them sitting awkwardly waiting other to speak. Mr Anderson look at the stubborn boy sitting infront of him. It's been long they have sit together and talk "Why did you invited me in this project?" be said looking at Sol.

"Because it's your idea as well" Sol said looking at Mr Anderson.

Mr Anderson puked blood 'this brat knows I'm also thinking about this project and convinced me to became partners'. His expression suddenly became serious "Are you really serious for my daughter because if you are not then better stay away from her."

Sol expression become stiff "I'm serious father in law"

Mr Anderson eyes widen in shock "Who's your father in law brat! my daughter didn't married you jerk"

"She will" Sol nonchalantly "By the way do you know what's Tulip like and dislike"

Mr Anderson think deeply but no words came out. His consciousness became guilty not knowing what his own daughter likes and dislikes are.

It's been a long day for Sol but he is used to it being a workaholic. But his mind keep wandering around what Tulip said. He look at the photo placed on the table, gently caressing the photo frame with his fingers. He secretly took tulip's picture during their time to zoo when Tulip gently smiling at their son.

"Daddy!!!" a voice call him. He look at his son coming with his secretary, he place the photo frame inside his drawer. He warmly smile at his son placing him on his lap.

"By the way son due you know what's your mom likes and dislikes" he asked his son taking out notepad and pen.
