Fred's POV 

I'm now in the middle of our monthly executive meeting when I feel that my phone vibrates. I always make sure to put my phone on vibrate mode because who knows why not? Haha Kidding, just to make sure I wouldn't miss something important, specially Lisa's call or text. I took my phone in my side pocket and open it under the table. I'm sitting on the right side of my dad and with all the board of directors. I read the message and I'm kinda shocked seeing a Message from Lisa's stylist. Anne.

"What the actual fuck!" I said. I thought I whisper it but No, I said it out loud. The people inside the room look at me suspiciously including my Dad. I look back at them when my Dad start to talk,

"Mister Arnault, is there something you would like to share with us or is there something bad with Mr. Smiths's report that made you curse?" My Dad said looking at me, a little curious but I can see a little disappointment in his voice.

I look at them and apologize for what I have said. I didn't explain my self further and good thing they didn't dig deeper into it. The meeting continue. I can't control my jealousy , I tried breathing exercises but no use, I tried to think better thought but no success. My sweats is showing and I feel so hot and I feel like vomiting, I'm nauseous. My dad glance at me from time to time, he can sense that I'm having a problem. I can't concentrate, my mind is in Bangkok right now.

"Mr. Arnault, what is happening to you child?" My Dad Keep talking to me but I just can't hear him. I didn't realized that my dad ended the meeting and everybody left the room, except from myself and dad of course.

"Frederic!!!" Dad shout at me.

I started because of the tone coming from my Dad. I look at him and I can sense that my eyes begin to form tears cause my vision is somehow blurry. But I'm not going to cry because of jealousy. I trust Lisa. I trust Lisa.

My dad start to talk again this time in a more softer and calmer voice , his normal voice.

"Child, what's wrong? Can you tell Dad about what's bothering you?" My fathers said

"Dad, were you jealous of Mom too? Like before you got married? Was there a chance that your judgement is clouded by your jealousy " I asked my Dad

"Hahahha something to do with Lisa I see. You know child, jealousy only means that you care for that person and you love that person. A little jealousy is cute but over jealousy will get you nowhere child. And yes, I got jealous too before, I mean you saw you mother right? She is the most beautiful woman I ever laid my eyes on. She has many admirers way back, she's perfect. A smart, beautiful,kindhearted person, a woman that every man's dream to marry."he said.

"There's this guy from Thailand who fancies Lisa I think. He's with her now , watching her rehears for the concert" I explain to him about how I feel. And dad always I mean always says the right thing

"Frederic, you should accept the fact that you and Lisa are not yet official. You can't shoo all this young men who tries to get her attention away. You have no power to do that." I interrupt my Dad from speaking

"But Dad, I don't want Lisa to be with anybody but me. She's mine." I said

"Son, Lisa is not a thing to be owned. Remember that. And you are not officially dating. I see that your feelings are mutual but Why are you taking so long to move? Make it official. Soon! I need my grandchildren! Dad said " Make Lisa and us proud by thinking straight and acting right. Trust Lisa and believe what you feel. Even the President of France cannot destroy what you both have if it's true Love, Son." He added. He hold my hands and kiss it gently. I look at him and hugged him tight.

"Thanks, Dad!" I said sobbing

"You're always welcome my prince. Now stand up and fix yourself! An Arnault is a fighter and we always win, but make sure to fight clean child. You call your lady and ask her what happened." He ordered me like a real boss.

I stand up and smile at my father. I gave him a hug and I went back to my office. I washed my face and fixed myself in my private powder room. Then I call Lisa.

The phone keeps on ringing.. maybe they're not finish rehearsing yet.

It's almost 5pm here in Paris, and its 9 am in Bangkok. I will call her back again in a few I'm sure they will have their lunch break. I went home and went directly to my room. No one is still around, Dad went out with his bestfriends, Mom and Jean I think are still in the company. Its 7 pm now. I should call Lisa, maybe this time she will pick up the phone.

My hands are shaking as I dial Lisa's number and put the phone against my ear. The phone rings. On the fifth ring the call got connected,

"Hello, baby! How are you? What are you doing there? Did you have your lunch already?" I said

"Baby, slow down. I'm trying to catch my breath, we just finish rehearsing our first set. How's work?" Lisa said from the other line. I can feel that she is somehow out of breath when she first answers the call. I feel guilty.

"I'm good, the office is the same, nothing special. Uhm Baby, what's up there? Do you need to tell me something?" I ask her

"Ohhhh.. nothing baby, everything is fine here." She said

Is she not going to tell me about it? Will she hide it from me. I want to cry thinking that Lisa will hide it from me. I control myself and try not to be obvious to her.

"I see.. Where are you going to have your lunch?" I said

I am waiting for Lisa's answer when I hear a male voice with a Thai accent in the background.

"So , It's lunch time. Lisa let's go get fish and chips, I know a good place." Said the male voice in Thai accent. I heard it clearly. If I am not mistaken, it's bright. I kinda listen to His songs when I first recognize him, the moment when he sent Lisa flowers. He's a singer also, he was really successful, according to wiki. He's kinda cool but when he tries to steal my Lisa, he's no cool anymore. I closed my fist and hang up the phone. I didn't say good bye. I just hang up.

I went to our Bar and took my dad's whiskey. Why Lisa? Are you really trying to hide it to me??? I will not go out and get drunk because Lisa doesn't want me to do that, but I will drown myself with alcohol, here in the house.
