Chapitre 21: Petty CEO

In the car, Li Muchen was going through some documents given to him by Ms Long when he suddenly raised his head and spoke to her.

"Change Sara's chauffeur!"

He had been in his room upstairs when he saw the car from his large window drive in, with Sara happily chatting with the young driver he had designated to her. She had never had a proper conversation with him but was happily chatting with his people?

Well, he could not really blame her for that right? He was actually the one at fault in that aspect.

He was angry and he didn't even know the reason why but when he remembered the look on Sara's face when she gawked at him, he couldn't help smiling as he turned to face the window and stared into space.

Miss Long noticed the use of Sara's first name by him and realised that he must have done it unconsciously since she was sure he didn't even notice it.

He was supposed to address her as 'Miss Wang' or 'Miss Sara' but had directly called her by her first name.

Was he being jealous? She asked herself. She had also seen Sara sitting on the front seat and even waved goodbye to the chauffeur when he dropped her off.

She presumed that this Petty CEO must have seen everything.

Then, she cut a glimpse of his smiling face through the mirror.

There were a lot of things on her mind, but they were better left unsaid.

She then nodded as she accepted his orders.

"What do you think was on Sara's mind when she looked at me?" He asked softly still facing the window.

Even the middle aged Chauffeur was shocked when he heard his question.

Ms Long had not been expecting this question either. She smiled and replied with her gaze on the road.

"I cannot say for sure, but she must have loved your look!" She said.

Li Muchen could no longer hide his smile and was grinning widely when he heard Ms Long's perfect answer. Although it would have been better to know he was the one she loved and not just his looks.

He looked at what he was wearing again. He wore a black turtlenecked sweater with a grey Armani blazer and Pants. He wore a dark coloured Oxford shoe, his golden Rolex watch, merely looking at it, one could guess it had been bought for millions.

Something seemed to have crossed his mind but he just smiled and moved his gaze to the documents on his laps and started flipping it. page by page.

Was going through documents always this interesting?

*************

Li Heya tried her best to entertain Sara. She had met her brother this morning to apologise for her behavior two days back since she had not been able to see him since then. He always left early and returned pretty late.

"You have to treat her well, that way, you can work with her properly do you hear me?" He had told her.

"I was just mad that you scolded me in front of her" She said sadly.

"I'm sorry about that Li Heya. It won't happen again if you behave well so I want you to promise me you'll be good from now on?"

"I promise" She said after a moment's hesitation.

Since she had promised her brother, she had to do it.

After seeing Heya upclose several times, Sara realised that Li Heya wasn't even as fat as she had thought. The only thing that was heavily weighing down on her was her lack of self esteem. For the past two days, she had only succeeded in getting Heya to stroll around the Villa with her. And after about 5 minutes, she always complained and grumbled and wondered why they were always walking around aimlessly.

Sara had also majored in Sport's psychology and knew that if she would be able to change Heya's perception about herself, then that would be a really great step in this journey! And what was exactly what she planned to do today.

After walking around for about 20 minutes, they both entered the apartment.

While they were both sitting side-by-side on the couch in the living room, Sara played a video on her phone which showed the before and after pictures of celebrities and non celebrities who were once fat and had now lost weight.

When Heya saw it, she was not surprised. She had searched for different before and after photos to use in motivating herself to go on a diet. But had still failed woefully!

Sara narrated their life history to Heya, what had motivated them in their journey to lose weight, how they were able to achieve it. And how nothing changed much in their lives even after they lost weight.

"It is easier for you to say these things since you are not fat" Heya said in annoyance.

Sara paused the video then stood up and spoke angrily.

"You are right. I am not fat, but weight is not the only thing people suffer from in this world. You have a nice family who loves you. Do you know that they are millions of kids out there who do not even have a place they call home or a parent to hug? You are able to play at least 5 musical instruments perfectly. Do you know they are a lot of untalented humans out there who feel they are useless? People are suffering to make ends meet. Fathers commit suicide because they cannot support their families. People go into armed robbery, prostitution and every other immoral things you can and cannot think of just to support themselves and their loved ones. But look at you, you were even the best student in your class. But you gave up the chance to study in Julliard because of WHAT?... Your weight?" She asked in provocation.
