"This is Ian Lim, my eldest daughter's boyfriend." Jas' father excitedly introduced.
"Is his family involved in any businesses we know?" The guest asked as he shook Ian's hand.
"My family built much of the townships in the south." Ian said with a nod. "My grandfather is also known as the father of local export, he was the one that propelled it to new heights."
"Wow, then you are a promising young man." The guest said with a nod.
In all honesty, Ian didn't like it when his family was used to reference how great of a future he had before him.
He wasn't his family and it was not what determined the person he would someday become. If that were the case then he should have stopped fighting for a better life for himself a long time ago.
Unfortunately this was not the place nor time to make a scene so Ian simply nodded and smiled.
"He is actually on his way to make a big name for himself." Jas' father boasted.
