Kapitel 17: Whose Household It Is?
Keira was so excited about the test on the next day that she even spent her day on doing more exercises, to make sure her body would be fit enough and would be used to the hard physical test they might give.
"Darling, take a rest for goodness sake!" Mrs. Chan exclaimed when she saw Keira in their work-out room.
Keira stopped and laid her body on the floor. Sweat was all over her face and body. She smiled, looking at the ceiling and said, "Mom… I feel like I'm the Wonderwoman, Mom. Tomorrow, I will show them all that Keira Chan is a fighter."
"Yeah, yeah… But now, for goodness sake, get up and change your sweaty clothes, the floor is cold!" Scolded Mrs. Chan. Keira got up immediately and hugged her mother.
"Mom, I actually enjoy what I'm doing right now. I've actually watched a lot of military documentary series. I'm at awe with the intense world of military elite forces training and from watching them fight for the country. It's really an admirable job. Now, I think I can understand the passion that Dad has for his job."
Mrs. Chan sighed…
"Yes, of course, it is… However, it best fits for men. You are my only Princess, and I really hope that you will stay there only for a year training, or if it's possible, 3 to 6 months of training time. I think that will be enough for you to determine if that Zach has mutual feelings towards you or not." Said Mrs. Chan.
Then, she gently pushed Keira away and smiled, "To be honest, I think one month will be more than enough to see if your plan is successful or not."
Keira burst into a fit of laughter and said, "We don't even know if I get admitted, Mom. But I'm happy because you have already assumed that I'll be admitted to the military base…"
"Well, I've observed your great improvement, so I believe you will make it. Besides, you are Keira Chan." Her mom proudly said.
...
At Liu Mansion
"Why is it taking so long? Until now, there's still no progress? Don't contact me if there's still no good news on what I have tasked you to do! It has already been several years, why can't you finish a simple task!!!" Senior Liu hissed from the other end of the line.
Till now, he couldn't find any information about that person's whereabouts. He wanted to find that person to pay back for all the wrongdoings he had committed towards that person before.
'Are you intentionally hiding from me? Or is it God's will that we never meet again?' He mused helplessly.
It had already been several years, but he would never stop looking until his last breath.
Jeru entered the room and noticed his father's gloomy and frustrated expression.
"Is everything fine?" He asked after his dad ended the call.
"Yes, it's nothing, Son… It's just about work." Senior Liu answered simply and gestured his son to sit and have tea with him.
Jeru grew up well, and so far, Jeru never did anything to disappoint him. He could tell that Jeru had been working hard to please him and because of that, he was thinking about entrusting him their whole business.
However, he had noticed one thing about Jeru, which made him have a second thought about entrusting his wealth to Jeru.
Then, he sighed and asked, "You're back at the base, so how is it? You're a General now… I'm worried if you can still manage our company, Son. I'm not getting younger, you know... So, I still think it would be best to divide the shares equally with our family members, who are capable enough on their jobs…"
"NO! I've already told you, Dad, I can manage everything. So please trust me on this…" Jeru exclaimed. He hated it whenever his father felt hesitant to entrust their family business to him.
Senior Liu let out a long, deep sigh and said, "Alright… Let me think about it more, besides, your dad is still healthy as a bull. So, don't think about the company for now and enjoy your rank as one of the youngest Generals in our country. By the way, your grandmother has called and asked about you. It's been long since the last time you paid her a visit, and now that you're back, do spare some time for her."
Jeru nodded, then there was an uneasy expression on his face. As if he wanted to say something but hesitated, so Senior Liu asked, "What is it? I know that expression of yours. You want to say something so spill it out."
Jeru smiled, then he looked directly at his father and asked, "You and Grandma are going to set an arranged marriage for me, right?"
"Yes, that's right," answered Senior Liu.
Grandma Liu was in the process of arranging and choosing the family that was best suited for Jeru and that was the reason Jeru was asked to pay her a visit in their ancestral mansion
Regarding the talks about an arranged marriage, Senior Liu had never interfered. He had no voice against his mother whatsoever, even regarding his own arranged marriage before, that almost destroyed his life.
Senior Liu sighed, as memories started to flashback… His mother was the female version of Hitler…
Then, his thoughts were interrupted as Jeru spoke, "I have chosen a family that, I'm sure, Grandmother will like too. You know that family well too."
Senior Liu's forehead creased and he asked, "Whose household is it?"
Jeru smiled widely and said, "It's Field Marshal Chan's daughter, Keira Chan…"
