Chapter 129 - Where Were You Mr. James?

"Where were you Mr. James?"Mr. Lin asked James Thomson as he reached near Mr. Lin.

"Dad, he was with me. We were discussing some matters about our partnership."Miss Lucy Lin replied in place of James Thomson.

"My daughter is really grown up now. She can even take care of the business nicely. What do you think Mr. Thomson?"Mr. Lin asked James Thomson in a proud tone.

"I agree with you, Mr. Lin. Miss Lucy Lin is really a good businesswoman. I think she can do anything for her company. Isn't it Miss Lucy Lin?"James Thomson asked by trying to hide his mocking smile.

"Is it a compliment or a criticism?"Lucy Lin asked with a smile.

"Of course it is a compliment. You are really a good businesswoman.I am happy to get a chance to know you."James Thomson said with a smile.

"I am flattered to hear you. Dad,I just got information that the people from Khoja Green Village are also on the way here."Miss Lucy Lin said in a happy tone.

Mr. Lin was shocked to hear her.

"What? Are they already agreed to our proposal?"Mr. Lin asked in a happy tone.

"Of course that already agreed. Otherwise, why would they come here?"Miss Lucy Lin said with a smile.

"But how did they agreed? Did not they reject our offer? How did you do it?"

"Dad, I had to do hard work to convince them. I knew that you are really interested in that project.I went there myself to convince the people."Lucy Lin said happily.

"You really did hard work this time.I am proud of you my daughter. Mr. Thomson, see how good my daughter is! I am going to reward you for this as I promised."Mr. Lin said happily.

"Of course she is good. Congratulations Miss Lin. You really deserve to get a reward for this hard work."James Thomson said in a serious tone.

"Yes.I promised that whoever would be able to get that project,I would reward them.I was very sad as everyone failed to do some. Now my daughter has done it."Mr. Lin said happily.

"Boss, three peoples from the Khoja Green Village is here. They want to meet you."Mr. Lin's assistant Mr. Martin reached near them and informed them.

"Bring them over here. We can talk to them here."Mr. Lin said.

"I think I should leave. You can talk to those people."James Thomson said politely. He wanted to go near Nina Anderson to see what is she doing right now as he was worried for her.

"Mr. James as you are going to be the partner, please stay here with us. What do you think Lucy?"Mr. Lin asked his daughter who was watching at the entrance happily.

"Yes. Dad is right. Please stay here for some time more. Khoja Green Village project is very important for our company."She replied with a smile.

"What type of project is this? And where is that place?"

"Khoja Green Viallge is near city L.We are going to make a resort village there."Mr. Lin replied this time. James Thomson was shocked to hear him.

'City L?Is not that the place, where the high clouds send Nina?'He thought and looked at  Peter Carter questioningly. Peter Carter was nearby. So he was listening to everything. He nodded in positive. James Thomson clenched his fist in anger.

"Good evening chairman. We are here from Khoja Green village."James Thomson came back to his senses to hear an elderly man's voice.

"Hello. Welcome to the annual day of High clouds enterprise.I am really happy to have you all here."Mr. Lin said with a happy tone.

"Chairman, thank you for the invitation. We are really lucky to be here."The man said politely.

"I was very interested in the project of your village. I was disheartened at first to hear that you rejected our proposal."Mr. Lin said.

"Welcome everyone. Thank you for accepting my invitation.I am Lucy Lin, the CEO of the High clouds enterprise."Lucy Lin said with a smile.

"Hello. Miss Lucy. You need not introduce yourself to us. We know you."The man said.

"Of course you should know. She is responsible for the project after all."Mr. Lin said with a proud tone.

"Mr. Lin, we have decided to accept the offer for the dedication and sincerity of your employee. We discussed it among other villagers. If an employee is that good, then the boss must be good."The old man said.

"You are correct. All our employees are very good."Mr. Lin said.

"Grandpa. where is sister Nina? Why I can not see her? Were  not we here to meet her?"A little girl came with them looked around and said. Everyone present there was stunned to hear her.

"Lily. Can not you see that we are speaking with the Chairman and CEO. We will meet her after some time."The old man said.

"Why after some time?I am not here to meet them.I only want to go near my sister Nina. Please take me to her."Lily said stubbornly. James Thomson smiled to hear the little girl. Now he can understand what is happening here.

"Nina, who is that?"Mr. Lin asked in a shocked tone.

"You don't know who is she? How can you not know her?"Miss Lily asked in a shocked tone. Lucy Lin was trying to find a way to stop that little girl. She knew that if her father comes to know about Nina, he would be very angry.

"Let me take you to her, little girl."Lucy Lin came forward and said.

"Ok," Lily said happily. Lucy Lin held her hand and was about to leave but stopped to hear James Thsomson's voice.

"This little girl must be very close to that girl named Nina. She is very much eager to meet her. Who is she? Is she her relative?"James Thomson asked in a curious tone.

"No, she is not my relative, but our savior."Lily stopped and replied. Lucy Lin stared at her father as she did not know what to tell.

"Yes chairman, she is not a relative of us, but more than that. There were a lot of people who went there in our village from your company. But she is the only one, who really cares about the people living in our village.

We all villagers decided to sign the agreement only for her. Otherwise, we would never accept it. She has done a lot for us. She even fought with the Rio group single-handedly to save us, villagers. We villagers are free to take any decision now only because of her. Our daughters are safe now in our home only due to her."The old man said in a happy tone.

Everyone was present over there was stunned to hear the old man.

"Our sister Nina saved me when the Rio group tried to sell me to a human trafficking gang. But we lost contact with her as I accidentally lost her mobile in the forest that day. Now we are here to meet our sister Nina."Lily said happily.

"Wh....what do you m.....mean?Are you sure that that was Nina?"Lucy Lin asked somehow.

"Are not you the CEO of the company? Was not it you who sent sister Nina over there? I heard sister Nina was speaking to someone over the phone, that the company is going to fire her if she stays there for a longer time. But sister Nina did not care about her job and helped us . Did you really fire sister Nina?"Lily asked in an annoyed tone.

"You little girl. Wh....what do you mean by that?I....I did not fire anyone."Lucy Lin replied.

"Lucy, are you sure?"Mr. Lin asked in a cold tone. He already guessed what might have happened here.

"Y....yes.I...I am telling the truth. H...how can I fire h...her."Lucy Lin uttered somehow.

"Miss Lucy Lin, why are you being nervous? You had not done anything wrong after all. Isn't it."James Thomson said with a smile.

"Y....yes.Of course."Lucy Lin replied.

"Mr. Lin.I believe in her words. You should also trust your own daughter.She is a good bussinesswoman.She would never do such a thing. I think you should bring that girl here and ask. She must be here as she is an employee of this company."James Thomson said in a serious tone.

"Yes. You are right. Martin, go and bring that girl. I want to meet her. And also inform me about this matter."Mr. Lin said in a cold tone. Lucy Lin looked at her father with fearful eyes.
