Chapter: Dinner with Yang family

It was early in the morning when Anna woke up. She went downstairs, she saw her elder sister, Karen preparing for breakfast.

"You sound asleep early last night?" Karen said

" Yes," she answered while she was having a coffee

"Are you okay?" She asked while holding the wooden spoon "

"Yes I'm good" she smiled "Our final examination is coming maybe Im stressed"

Karen sat on the wooden chair in front of her

" Hey, you don't need to pressure yourselves, if you've felt tired, go...take a rest "

Anna nodded and smiled at her sister

Meanwhile, Sarah and Dianne came and joined with them.

Anna went to School with Sarah, while her elder sister went to work, nearby their house.

TOM POV:

" Have you talked to your father?" Janeth asked his son while serving him a glass of fruit juice and a piece of cake.

"No" he answered while checking his phone

"Papa wants you to come back to the company," she said " he wanted you to manage the company's business, he wanted to resign"

"No, I don't want to " Janeth sat down beside him

"Tom, he's old enough... please put aside your ego, and forgive him" She pleased him

"He's not gonna change mama"

"And you?" Janeth said with intensity in her voice

A few minutes ago a customer came in and went to the counter, made an order and that sat on the corner table.

The two of them remained silent until Janeth talked

" he is still your grandfather Tom, whatever reason he has, try to understand him"

Tom glared and sighed

Janeth held his hand "I know but you need to forgive him ... it's been two years... we've missed you so much ... you need to come back "

"But I'm not ready " he protested

"And when you will be?" She asked "If you've continued being like this, you will never win against him," Janeth sighed. " you always like him, your ego, and pride do not gonna work, haven't you get tired of all of this." She asked, "Your dad is sick, he can't handle the stress and workload in the company..."

Tom looked at her

" How is he?" He asked

" he's fine for now"

Tom sighed and drank his juice

" by the way, we had a dinner this coming Friday night, You and Mildred are coming right?...you should come, his best friend granddaughter is coming "

"Tsk ...glad for him, he finally found his mistress" he murmured

"What?"

Tom shrugged his shoulder and smirked

Janeth looked at him " you're not a kid anymore, my dear be matured enough " she said

"What ? " tom asked sarcastically

"You will know if you had your own children "

"Alright alright I'm going," he said

"Do not forget the dinner on Friday, my dear!"

"Anna!" Kevin called her while running toward her in the hallway

She looked back And waited for him

"By the way thank you for supporting my idea"

"Mm" she answered and smiled at him

"Let me send you home, it's late "

"No!, it's fine, thank you"

"Yeah, 100 percent sure ... thank you "

Kevin looked at her and smiled

"Really?"

Anna smiled and nodded

Kevin sighed and "All alright then, take care and good night " he smiled at her and walked away

Anna bit her lower lip and smiled and suddenly

"Whoah! What I am doing ?" She asked her selves while knocking her head "wake up Anna" she continued walking toward the gate

While waiting for a jeepney the Black car stopped on her front

"Are you sure you don't want to ?" Kevin asked

Anna laughed "Yes, Good night Kevin, " she answered while waving

"Okay, bye-bye, see you," he said and drive off

Anna waved to him

A few minutes Anna ride in a jeep, she felt tired yet she's very happy, she enjoyed the council meeting.. because Kevin was there.

when Anna arrive at the subdivision, she was shocked when she saw Mr. Yang Car was parked at the front gate of their house Chairman Yang's driver greet her and invited her to the coffee shop where Mr. Yang waited for her.

She glared and started to pout

She sighed and followed him

"Still mad at me ?" Chairman Yang asked her while she was sitting in front of the old man

"I don't know," she said humbly

"Hmm, I know...and I'm sorry," he said " but let's put aside that for now, you don't want to talk about that's, alright ..." Chairman Yang sighed " but my family wanted to meet you on Friday night," he said

Anna looked disappointed

" I hope you will come " he insisted

Anna took a deep breath and stood up

" Good night Mr... Chairman Yang!" She modestly speaking

Chairman Yang looked at her disappointed

"Alright see you on Friday " Chairman Yang walked away and Anna was left standing

She doesn't know her feelings, yet she feels happy because she is becoming CEO of the company and she will be rich but deep inside she feels worried and sad.

She's slowly walking toward their house. The white moon kisses her for a goodnight, and the wind whispers and singing to her ears. Anna felt restlessness from the day she heard about the CEO and marriage.

She can't talk about it to someone else, she's afraid.

The subdivision guard greets her. She greeted him back and smiled.

Anna took a deep breath and smiled before she opened the door. Her siblings watch movies on the TV flat screen on the wall.

" you're late," Dana said

Anna smiled

" aYeeeah ," Sarah teased her

"What?" She asked

"How's the date with Kevin," Sarah asked with her eyebrows up and down and she's giggling

" date?" She asked with smiling "We're not dating " she answered her

"Ohhhh" her siblings replied "Come on" they continued teasing her

"Oh come on... we're not dating! " she protested

"So why are you late, and holding a frappe from Starbucks"

Anna laughed

" alright.. he gave it but we're not dating" she lied and smirked, but she need to hide the identity of Mr. Yang,

"Ahem," Karen said

"Don't worry, i know ... promise we're not dating" she insisted "he's my crush ...okay ... he gave this...okay but we're not...she's dating with someone else "

"Wait who's Kevin?" Karen asked "is he the guy that gave you a flower in your first year of college "

"Yes, that's him," Sarah said " her crush"

"Whoah!, really... " she can't believe

" maybe he had a crush on you" she replied,

"maybe..." Anna smiled and felt kilig

"Hahaha" they laughed Karen threw a throw pillow to her

"Ouch!!! But FYI ghurls... no... please don't assume" she warned them

They smirked and giggles after

Friday night came...

Anna was fetched by Chairman Yang's driver, who was waiting at the front gate of the school campus

"You're going somewhere?" Shania asked

Anna nodded

"Can you tell me where?" She continued asking

"Dinner with a family friend" she answered

"Ohh... have fun," Shania said "Goodbye" they hugged cheek to cheeks

"Thank you," she said

Anna got inside the car, Anna sat in the back seat of the car.

After an hour, they arrived at Chairman Yang's residence, in front of a metal gate, it looked old and some of the vine grass was crawling on the round bar, while the shrubs were too grown and hadn't been cut and trimmed. But there is a post light and some have a Christmas light on the shrubs, that gives light and shine in the darkness on the surroundings. Mr. David scanned his Identification card, on the tap machine, and then a few seconds the gate automatically opened, Anna was amazed at the astonishment behind the metal wall gate. The Bermuda grass was newly trimmed. The tall palm trees were aligned on the cobblestone driveway, there was a fountain at the center, the car turned and parked for a moment at the front door of the balcony.

Anna got off in the car, she stood and looked up and stared at the mansion. There are two tall palm trees beside the front of the balcony, the mansion is full of lights and huge. Anna opens his mouth wide and widens his eyes while looking around.

Mr. David invited Anna to get inside, and while he opened the door a maid came in and greeted them, the living room was massive, there was a set of dirty white couches and a center table, and there was a fresh flower on the vase, a fireplace on the corner, a glass window from top to bottom, the most beautiful and catching eye in the living room is the chandelier, it looks like a tail of the fox that furry and full of lights, but it made of gold and steel. Anna hadn't seen that before, Anna turned around and smiled, she suddenly followed the maid through the dining room while everyone was busy preparing the table,

A lady came to her, wearing a white dress with a pinky Apron, her hair tied up. She wiped her hand with a white cleaned towel

She smiled and "You must be Anna, right?" She asked

Anna smiled and nodded

"Yes, how can I help you?" Anna offered help

"Oh no no, please you're a guest here, please come and join them " she invited her

"By the way, I'm Janeth" she introduced herself to Anna while they were walking through the backyard of the house, where everyone gathered, they were laughing while holding their wine glasses, and they were wearing fancy dresses and suits. Anna looked at herself she was wearing a white school uniform. She took a deep breath and smiled at them

"Come," Janeth invited her to Chairman Yang,

Chairman Yang seated at the chair beside Marvin.

Janeth whispered to Chairman Yang,

Chairman Yang looked back and smiled at Anna, he waved and invited her to come.

" Anna, " Chairman Yang called her "this is my son Marvin" he introduced him

Anna smiled and Marvin reached his hand to shake hands "this is his wife, I'm sure you knew her already"

Janeth raised her eyebrows and smiled at her

"Please don't be shy, " Chairman Yang said "Ah Janeth please introduce her to them " he referred to Mrs. Yang, Tom, and Mildred.

Anna followed Janeth, she saw the three of them were enjoying and were happy

"Mama," Janeth interrupted them

Three of them were looking at her

"Oh dear you must be Anna," Mrs. Yang said and smiled "Come and sit " she continued "

finally, he met you already, don't you know how frustrated he is when he found out that your grandfather has passed away ... I'm so sorry for your loss " she said while holding her hand

" here my favorite person, Mildred, she's Tom's girlfriend," she smiled

" hi," Mildred greeted her "How are you? , I didn't know that Lolo has a good friend... and I haven't heard about you before "

"Ahh it's a long story dear" Mrs. Yang answered

Anna was amazed at Mildred,

"You looked like Liza," she said

They laughed

"Ohhh ...she's my sister " and they laughed " I'm just kidding,...Liza is much prettier than me" Mildred humbly said

She looked to her left side, and Tom smiled at him

Anna was starstruck by him

" I thought you were not coming? ," Mrs. Yang said

" Actually I am not supposed to be, but Mr. David waited for me " she explained

"Ohhh...glad you came and hoping you would enjoy" she continued and smiled "So tell me, dear, it looks like you're still studying?" Mrs. Yang asked

"Yes, I'm still studying " she answered

"What course are you taking up?" Mildred interrupted

"Nursing" she proudly said

"Oh," Mildred said and sipped her champagne " I do fear in blood "

"Graduating my dear?" Mrs. Yang asked again

" No, I'm in third-year college,"

" tell me how many siblings do you have? " she continued interrogating her

"I'm The third child among the seven children .... so..." Anna felt shyness

"Too many, Is your father very industrious to make a baby " Mrs. Yang comments

Anna smiled

A few minutes ago, Dinner was ready, they were invited to eat
