He cleared his throat. Then sip another on that drink

He then cleared again his throat

Sip another drink

The guy he's having a meeting with just looking down on the table, reading something on that paper in front of him. It's a known coffee shop at Sander City. A city near Northern hills where the seat of the government located. Since it's near to the state's government building, a lot of statesman come and go on that shop for a coffee fix.

He knew a lot of them and they're all in suits like him. But not the guy in front of him. The guy's on polo shirt and cargo shorts. He came there on a sandals but most of the statesman looks at him as they go. Some tipped they're coffee towards the old man earlier, that's how influential the guy

They said before you come at his door at Northern Hills, the old man already know a lot about you. A known mogul during his time but always a humble guy

The old guy's seriously looking at that folder containing various numbers. It's a company report. He knows it's a company report being used to reading a lot like that. But normally, he looked at it on his laptop, but the guy's a known old fashion.

The guy's one of the best person in Johnson he ever met. Better than his dad. Actually, far far better than his dad but as good as the old man looks like, he's not that easy to convince. Specially if it's about his princess

He sip another one….

"Coffee must be taste good", the old man uttered but still looking at the papers in front of him. The guy ordered a carrot juice not a coffee.

Damn

"Yes Mr. Thomas, it's a good brew"

"I suggest you lessen it. It makes you nervous", the old man said

"Ahm, it helps me as it is", he replied

"Really", the old man commented and sighed. Still on that report. "Then why are you not talking? We've been here for thirty minutes"

"Well, Mr. Thomas, I'm ahm"

"Nervous"

"Yes nervous.….", he realized his stupidity. "Oh, no no what I mean"

The old man of dark lens and dark hair looked at him, "Nervous as hell?" He said that on unreadable face

Fuck

He breathe and exhaled, "I'm ahm. Would like to say sorry"

The guy's face didn't move much as reply

"Well, I know I caused a lot of troubles to your daughter eversince….", he cleared his throat

"Eversince you met her in her university", the guy said

"Oh… yeah. A little bit"

"It's not", the guy replied

"Wha…. What?", did he heard him right?

"It's not a little bit. You are a big trouble", the guy said

"But…. But"

"But you change. That's what I thought", the guy talked again. "Did Barry know that you're dating again my daughter?"

"I told them indirectly?", he replied

The guy looked at him unmoved. Not even giving up anything. "Talk to me again if you told Barry about it directly", he finally said and prepared to stand

"Wait, wait Mr. Thomas. I really love Christine", he said

The guy breathe and looked at him with a piercing eyes, "If you love my daughter then why did you do those things to her?"
