Alina was very happy today. She was going to meet her uncle after years. She was even excited to meet her cousin Nicolas and his wife Susan who she hadn't met for a few weeks now.
She parked the car in front of the mansion and went inside smiling. She was greeted by her Uncle, Daehyun and his son Nicolas while Susan was doing something in the library.
Alina hugged her uncle tightly as soon as she saw him, telling how much she missed him.
Alina was 10 years old when she had met Daehyun, since then she sees him as her ideal.
Alina's parents had been killed in a car accident because of a case when she was just 10 years old. Her mother was a detective and her father a police officer.
After Alina's parents had passed away, Daehyun had helped with almost everything even though they had no relation between them. He took care of her studies as well.
He had his own family to look after so they didn't live together, but he always took care of Alina's needs.
He had left the country after a few years when he became the CEO of the company Vantae, but always took care of Alina even from afar.
It's safe to say, Alina believed whatever she is, it is because of her uncle. Yes she does feel alone at her apartment, but she believes whatever she gets is more than enough. She could never ask for more.
"So how's the company uncle?" Alina asked while eating her steak. They were all having dinner after some light chatting.
"As you know Alina, dad's perfect in whatever he does. I try so hard to get N&S enterprises to success but can never overpass him." Susan replied pouting, but it was obviously fake. She was absolutely proud of his father-in-law.
Daehyun laughed at that,
"Don't worry daughter, I'm sure you'll have great success in no time. Also if you need any help, just ask me okay? Now that I am back i will do everything for my family that i can." He said patting Susan's hair. Susan nodded back.
"How's your work going, Alina? I hope everything is fine." Nicolas who was silently enjoying the conversations asked. He always looks at Alina as his real younger sister.
"Of course brother, you know how much i love working. And everything is perfect." Alina replied with puffed cheeks with food, everyone cooed out loud at her.
"I know Alina, not just me, everyone knows this. But please take care of yourself too. It can get dangerous sometimes." Nicolas said genuinely concerned.
He knows what happened with Alina's parents, he couldn't even imagine the same thing happening with her.
Alina looked at her brother and smiled, "Yes brother i will take care of myself. Lets eat now, before my sister in law throws us out of the house for insulting her food." Alina said making everyone laugh.

"When, Seon brother?" Jay asked eagerly looking at the big television in their room. He was constantly shaking his leg in anticipation.
"Calm down Jay, just a few more
Minutes." Seon said. He was eager himself too but Jay was being a pain in the ass at this point.
Jay, Seon, and Eryx were sitting inside their VIP room waiting for news to flash over the television. To say they were restless would be an understatement. They had been waiting for this moment their entire lives.
"For fuck's sake! How much more time? Are you completely sure about your skills! Because i am not! You are getting old!" Jay said loudly. His face had a weird expression.
"What did you just say? I will kill you, come here." Seon said and ran behind Jay who to avoid Seon stood behind the chair Eryx was sitting on, while staring at the screen holding his head in his hands. He looked pissed but the other two didn't notice it on time.
"Stay away..."
"Enough!!" A roar was heard and within a second both the male sat down on their respective chairs.
Suddenly the screen flashed with news and the reporter started talking, "Recently, we have come across some information about the famous CEO of Vantae, Mr. Daehyun, who had just come back to the country after 10 years, just a few days ago.
We had received some files from some anonymous sources about how Mr. Daehyun had connections with some other companies.
It had contracts of how some illegal deals were made between them for the profit of their companies. It included great inducements that took place by large money exchanges.
The files have been submitted to the police and soon an inquiry will take place over the matter. We are still looking for the sources and will get back to you with more information as soon as possible."
Eryx smirked looking at the screen and both Jay and Seon felt shivers run down their spine looking at the creepy smirk on Eryx's face.
