Chapter 2

Eun's POV

*knock knock knock*

Nagising ako dahil sa ingay ng kumakatok sa aking pintuan

I rub my eyes, and talk

"Yes?"

"I'm sorry for the disturbance Young Lady" My butler said, that was Butler John, he is my personal butler slush personal assistant slush secretary. He handle all my affairs and he's a young and good-looking man, 5 years older than me. He is also one of my best friend and acts as my older brother. But of course, despite of that, he's not exempted from my 'cold' attitude.

"Its ok, so what is it?" i asked

"It's almost dinner time, Lady. You haven't eat since you arrived and we are worried about you" he answered

"Ok. I'll be downstairs. Prepare me a food to eat. Just give me a minute" I replied

"The food is ready, Young Lady, the chef prepared your favorite dessert too"

" Ok. You may leave "

As soon as Butler John leave. I fix myself before going down. I just took a shower, change my clothes into something casual and comfortable to move and off to go. No make-up needed as I am not fan of make-ups, well, except if it is needed, like special occasions. I'm not also fan with dresses as I want something comfortable and easy to move around.

As I walk in the corridor, every maids I met on my way down were bowing their heads as a sign of respect but I just continue walking until I reach the dining room.

The table was set. The foods smells delicious. Those are french cuisines cooked by our chef. He was assigned by my mom. Masyado kasing mapili si mommy pagdating sa foods. So she hired an international chef who can cook and prepare different kind of cuisines. She's a great cook too but she's a very busy person, so to make sure that we eat delicious and nutritious food, she hired a chef that is also a nutritionist.

I sat on the middle part of the table and eat my foods quietly.

Nagtataka ba kayo kung bakit walang mga maids na nagseserve ng food sa akin?

Simple lang, ayaw ko kasi ng may mga tumitingin sa akin habang kumakain. Isa pa, hindi naman ako bata para asikasuhin nila. I can handle myself, but if all the members of the family are present especially if we have a family gathering, they (maids) are also present to assist each of us.

After a few minutes, I'm done eating my dinner. I went to the sink with my eating utensils, wash it and put it in the dishwasher. I know we have maids to do everything for us and follow every beck and call that we do but since I stayed in Singapore for a long time, I learned to do household chores and be an independent woman. I may have my personal assistant to help me in the company affairs and everything. But he only stay with me to give me company at home, I don't want to be alone in a big house by myself. Aside from the guards, who stay in their quarters, I have one maid to keep the house clean and take care of the garden. I also have one helper to do the laundries who only comes once a week.

I'm currently in my home office, listening to mild music while reading some documents that I need to review. Music helps me to calm my nerves and concentrate with everything I do, ever since I was a kid, I really love listening to music and so I get used to it until now that almost every time I have to listen to music, I even have earphones in my jackets and purses so wherever I go, I'll be able to listen.

Anyway, I just wanna share that I may not be a president or chairman of our conglomerate but I am also part of the heads of our company. I am also working in the main office but I rarely visited because most of the time I work at home. I finished my business degree and I will be taking Master's Degree in the coming school year. Aside from working in our company, I also have my own companies to handle. I own restaurants, hotel and resorts, high-end bars and malls located mostly in Singapore and Philippines. Some of it were part-owned by my friends. We are also planning to branch out in South Korea, Japan and Canada but of course it will take time.

Hindi lang kasi ako bumalik dito just to teach them a lesson, I'm also here for our company. My dad assigned me to take care of the company branch here, so I don't have a choice. Starting next week, I will be the acting CEO of our Philippine Branch Royal Cross Corporation, a subsidiary of Regal Knight Empire

*Flashback*

*knock knock knock*

"Yes?"

"Lady Eun, Master is looking for you, he wants to talk to you in the Library"

"Ok. I'll be there. You may leave. Thank You"

He just bowed as a sign of respect. He was Butler Luke, my father's butler.

After 10 mins, I went to the library and knock 3 times before opening the door.

I entered and I saw him sitting on his chair, signing some documents

"What is it dad?"

"Princess, can I ask you a favor?"

"Shoot"

"We want you to go back in the Philippines"

"But why?"

"We assigned you as the new CEO of our company there and also we want you to finish your studies in our school"

"Do I have a choice?"

"None. So you'll leave tomorrow morning"

"Ok"

"Oh, and one more thing, you'll be the new President of our school but we don't want others to know who you really are, so as a student, you'll be a low profile person, arasso?"

"Arasso"

*flashback ends"

So yeah, I'll be handling our businesses here and I'll be a student too. Too much pressure and stress but I don't have a choice, it's part of my responsibility as the heiress of our family, well, I am the second next-in-line successor after my elder brother.

*krrrriiinnggg kring kkkrrrriiiinnnggg*

It's my phone. I get it and check who's calling

Carla is calling

She is one of my friends. Here name is Carla Tolentino. Pure Filipino, only daughter of Tita Carlene and Tito Lance Tolentino.

"What is it?"

"Sissy naman, ngayon na nga lang tayo nagkausap. Tinatarayan mo pa ako"

"You know me, so what's the matter?"

"I heard..I mean we heard that you're here so we decided to hang out tonight.. Doon pa rin sa dati.. Now na"

"But..."

"No buts. See yah. Byeee"

Hindi ko na natapos ang sasabihin ko binabaan pa ako ng phone. I sighed.

I'll just prepare myself readers. Talk to you later.
