It Might Be You... Who Knows...Sequel Story: The King and I (Will start at Chapter 537)Continuation.............................................................11th Page Update.................................................
Meanwhile Heechul jolts at the sudden outburst of Jessica that out of curiosity he goes to where the Father and Daughter are, interested to know what is going on; embraces Jessica and asks…
“Daddy… Hon…
what was that sudden outburst all
about…?”
Jessica: (looks at Heechul and says) Oh…
Daddy informed me something about Kibum’s inviting
his business rivals…
Heechul: (agrees) Yes…
Daddy compare to how many you have invited on
Bummie’s birthday; this time, are a lot many.
Do you have any idea, what is happening…?
JP Owen: (grins) I was just telling Jessie that most of these invited
are Kibum’s major competitiors….
Heechul: (looking so engrossed) Yes… Daddy…
I know all of them…
(points to two to three persons) these ones are the
aggressive and inflexible ones…
I saw them once dealing with other business associates of
mine and from them I was informed how these people are
kind of obnoxious.
JP Owen: (nodding) Yes… but not with me during my time…
Jessica: (worrying tone) And how about with Bummie…
JP Owen: (smirks) Bummie...? I don’t think so…
Bummie is very smart and clever…
They met Bummie so many times not someone
who is directly involved with my businesses but
an ordinary kid and that was how they knew about him then.
What smart thing Bummie had done,
every competitor in the business world he is aware of;
he bought 30% of the company’s shares without their knowledge…
Heechul: (body stiffens) WHAT…!
Jessica: (looks at Heechul) WHOA…! Clever indeed…
JP Owen: (chuckling) So these guys you know that act like
tyrannical businessmen will be pretty shock if
Bummie will be forced to reveal that he owns
one third of their companies.
Jessica: (looks at her father in a probing manner)
But Daddy… fine…
granting 30%, is this net after distribution of shares
between owner and the board of directors…?
JP Owen: (shakes his head) No…
Bummie made it clear that he wanted to buy shares
before distribution based on audited financial statement.
Of course, we know how cunning these guys are;
according to Taeyang, they initially submitted a false
financial report of their assets and liabilities just to fool
whoever they thought would become the part owner.
Much to their surprise when the Investment Security
Division of Bummie made an investigation of each of
these guys’s financial standing; thus,
if you calculate it out of the total 100;
Bummie gets the 30% and the remaining available balance
for distribution is only 70% to be divided amongst the
board of directors including the chairman, of course.
Jessica covers in shock and astonishment leaving her speechless staring back and forth at JP Owen and Heechul. Unfortunately, Heechul too is overwhelmed and actually squatted speechless resting his chin on his knees.
“Fantastic strategy ha…?
That is how Bummie’s mind works…
According to Taeyang, the only competitor
he did not take an interest of is his late
beloved Natalie’s parents… out of respect.
(smiles) Of course, we know why…
because the heirs of all the Batista’s
businesses are none other than Minnie and
Kibummie…their grandchildren.
And Bummie has a very good relation with
Natalie’s family and vice versa…”
“Daddy…if…”
“Ladies and Gentlemen, this is to let you know that Kibum,
Minho and the twins’ Minnie and Kibummie will be arriving in
three hours….”
Jessica’s further inquiry is interrupted when the news of Kibum and company’s arrival is announced.
“Honey…
I wonder where they will proceed…
(looks at his wife Jessica) are they coming here…?”
Heechul eargerly asks…
“I have no idea…
but we can only see from the screen…
(points at one of the screens monitoring the
runway) Look… Hon…we can check from that screen
where they will be heading next…
(asks JP Owen) Daddy…
that monitor is assigned exclusively for Kibum and his family…right…?”
JP Owen: (nods) I believe it is…
Jessica: Daddy would you like to sit down…
JP Owen: (waves hand) Thank you sweetie…
both of you may take a seat…
I will go accompany the King and Queen…
(surprised to see them coming to him)
Oh… speaking of which… here they are…
K. Philip: (pats JP Owen’s shoulder) Son…
this is a beautiful place… I wish to retire here…
Q. Margret: (claps her hands excitedly) Yeah… I agree…
JP Owen: Before I answer that question, why don’t we all sit down…
JP Owen points at a large round table where Jessica, Heechul, Sooyoung and Leeteuk together with Kangin and Kikwang are seated…
“Over there…
perhaps we call all chat while we wait for
Bummie’s family arrival…”
“I agree… let’s go then…”
Says the King…
“Okay…good idea…”
She responds as she holds her husband’s arm for support.
Jessica sees her Dad with the King and Queen excitedly says…
“Daddy… Papa… Mama…
come…join us…”
“We are coming sweetheart…”
Replies JP Owen as he walks holding the program in his hand…
As they all gather in the round table, JP Owen starts the halt briefly conversation…
“Sweetheart … Heechul…
Mom and Dad here…
are thinking of spending their retirement in
this place after Bummie’s King coronation…
what do you think…?”
Heechul: (shakes his head) I don’t think Bummie…
in my opinion; will grant your wish to spend your retirement
period away from us…
Jessica: (face saddens) Papa… Mama…
I don’t think Bummie will like it…
JP Owen: (smiles and looks at the King and Queen)
Yes… they are right…
I don’t think Bummie will allow you to live alone here.
I think he would wish that we live together and Mom…Dad…
this place is only one of those getaway islands of Bummie…
you will be surprised as to how many islands worldwide Kibum has…
Jessica: (smiles) Right…if you want to travel to these places…
Bummie will be very happy to grant your requests…
Perhaps, it is better if we wait for his decision…
I guarantee… Bummie will not agree…
K. Philip: (elated with the responses) Okay… I am happy…
we will wait for Bummie then...
Q. Margret: (looks at Jessica with excited anticipating eyes)
Jessie sweetie… you mean…
Bummie owns so many islands…?
Jessica: (laughs) Yes… Mama…
Bummie is far more affluent even if Heechul and I
combined our assets.
Bummie is a partowner of every businesses Heechul and I have…
hold on…
(asks Heechul) Honey…
so far how much percentage have we given Bummie to invest…?
Heechul: (proudly smiles) about 30% Honey…
