Madam Li placed the envelope on the table and slid it to Lena.
"I will get straight to the point. This is a bribe." Madam Li spoke.
"Madam Li." Lena dropped her sweet smile and looked at Madam Li. She slid the envelop back to her. "No matter the amount or value, I won't take bribery."
Madam Li laughed. "I guessed Dr. Tye was correct. He said you would not take it."
"Dr. Tye?" Lena was confused. "Didn't you say you were here regarding me and Kris?"
Madam Li took the envelope back and put it in her bag. "Yes. I need to ask you for a favor. It has to do with Kris. Dr. Tye suggested that since you are a good influence for Kris, you would be able to help us with some... family issues."
Family issues. Is this about why Kris was avoiding home for a bit? "I don't think I would feel comfortable inserting myself into the Li family issues. If I remember correctly, the Li family is as messy as any other highly wealthy families."
I edited out the past part... cuz after I published and started eating my dinner, I felt like it was not a topic to "joke" about so I removed/edited.
Was watching some news about the shootings in America and yeah... not a good topic to joke with.
For those who read it, you will know what I am referring to. If you didn't read it, then it's all gucci.
I apologize tho if that small part did trigger anyone <3.
