"I hope you can keep her satisfied then." Wu Jun said with a grin as he watched Ray pull Ayanna closer to him.

"Trust me, I do." Ray said as he glared at Wu Jun.

"How long has it been since you got married?" Wu Jun asked as he poked at one of the couple's sore spots.

"A few years, and we have been loving every moment we have had together." Ayanna responded as she tried to keep Ray calm. "I'm in no rush to have a kid, since it would mean I'd have less time for work and my husband."

"I'm sure you are trying." Wu Jun said as he tried to push his point through.

.

"No, they have not." It was Emilio Reyes that answered this time, silencing the whole room. "I'm not ready to see my daughter pregnant just yet. Plus, Cedric has given me enough grandchildren." He said with a laugh.

"Ah, then I wish the best for both of you." Wu Jun said with a nod as he finally dropped the topic.

"Shall we take our photo now?" Cedric asked Wu Jun as he gestured towards a blank marble wall that would make a good backdrop for the photo.

"Yes." Wu Jun said with a nod as he fixed his coat and necktie.

"You both look marvelous." Ayanna praised as she waved for Mae to come over with a camera.

"Can she take good shots? We need professional looking ones, this will be all over the news." Wu Jun said as he looked at Mae.

"Yes, Mae is professionally trained." Cedric said in a calm tone as he watched Mae and Ayanna look at each other.

Clearly the two women were now annoyed at how Wu Jun kept talking down at them.

With Cedric's assurance, Wu Jun agreed to have Mae take their photos. They did several poses, shaking hands, holding the contract, and simply standing side by side.

It didn't take long for Mae to get all the shots that they needed and within ten minutes they were done.

"So that's it?" Wu Jun asked.

"Yes, that should be it. If there is anything you need, don't hesitate to give me a call." Cedric said politely. In his head he hoped that Wu Jun would not give him a call.

"I will." Wu Jun said with a nod.

"Will you be flying home today or are you spending the night in the capital?" Cedric asked as he walked Wu Jun out of the Reyes Mansion.

"I think I will stay a few more days." Wu Jun said as he looked back at Ayanna who was hugging Ray. "I mean, I'd like to see more of your city and your country. You have some interesting sights here."

It didn't slip past Cedric that Wu Jun had impure thoughts towards his sister and he made a mental note to keep Wu Jun as far away as possible from Ayanna.historical

"Well I hope you enjoy your stay." Cedric said with a smile as they reached Wu Jun's car.

"Give my regards to your father, tell him I miss playing golf with him. I might just fly up to Beijing to play a round." Emilio Reyes said with a laugh as he shook Wu Jun's hand.

"I will, uncle." Wu Jun said with a nod.

"I look forward to working more with you." Cedric said as he too shook Wu Jun's hand.

"Likewise." The Chinese businessman said with a smile.

As Wu Jun got into his car, he took a final look around the Reyes Mansion. It was clear he was looking for Ayanna. But Ray had made sure that she stayed inside, he was quite overprotective when it came to his wife.

"Thanks again, please tell Miss Ayanna and Mr. Raymund that it was a pleasure meeting them." Wu Jun said as a bodyguard closed the door and his convoy of cars drove off.

When they had finally exited the property and gates had closed behind the last car in Wu Jun's convoy, Cedric was finally able to breathe comfortably.

"I don't like him, I don't like him at all." Dave said as he shook his head.

He had been standing behind or next to Cedric the whole time and he had seen and heard all the things Wu Jun said.

In Wu Jun's eyes Dave was just an employee, so he completely ignored the young man.

"My family does business with them sometimes." Dave explained. "I've never met him, just his dad."

"Yes, that young man is a far cry from his father. He is disgusting, absolutely disgusting." Emilio Reyes hissed.

"Dad, I'll be leaving ahead." Cedric informed Emilio Reyes as three cars pulled up to the driveway.

"Already?" Emilio Reyes asked with a frown.

As time passed he had become lonelier and lonelier in the giant Reyes Mansion. True his sister, Aurora Mendiola and her husband lived there as well, but they weren't around too often since they helped manage the international arm of the Reyes Group.

Emilio Reyes' own parents also lived at the Reyes Mansion, but they were old and not that much fun to be around.

He missed his wife badly and he just wanted to spend more time with his children and grandchildren in the future. A part of him understood that Cedric and Ayanna both needed spaces of their own to grow with their partners, but to him, they were still his children.

"We'll stay the night, dad." Ayanna said as she stepped out of the house, holding Ray's hand, "We have some necessities here and we did leave clothes here in case we wanted to stay."

"You will?" Emilio Reyes asked as he smiled at his daughter and son-in-law.

"I'll send Yoyo over after school tomorrow dad, I'm sure he misses you." Cedric said with a smile as he moved to hug his father and his sister.

As soon as they were done saying goodbye, Cedric got into his car, alone.

Ian had been driven by his driver, while Mae and Dave had brought their own car as well.

"John, I need to make a call." Cedric told his driver as he lifted the sound proof screen that divided the front and back seats.

Cedric took out his phone, tapped to call a number and placed it on his ear.

After a few rings the person at the other end finally picked up.

Cedric smiled and spoke.

"Hello Ming, welcome to the capital."
