Chapter 42 Late Bloomer Type
His father without doubt helped him a lot because in the process Raven was the one who offered her help to Jordan.
He was reading all the conditions that Raven stated. She even handed to him a printed copy. He had mixed emotions right now, happy but not so happy at the same time.
In short, Raven had agreed to marry him but they should keep it a secret for the time being. No, he definitely won't do the registration of marriage thing only. His father wanted to see them both walked down the aisle so he crossed it out. He will do a revision on this sentence.
'No consummation of marriage until her graduation? Is she kidding me?' Jordan thought. Abstinence until she reaches on her twenty? Jordan wanted to laughed and frowned at the same time while reading it. Father wanted to see his grandchildren sooner. He definitely will also revise this condition of hers.
Two things were very clear to him after he had finished reading her conditions. Raven had pointed out that she wanted to graduate first and be someone with a successful career.
'I can help her with that, becoming successful in an instant.' He thought to himself. Although he was certain Raven knew an easy way with the Choi's back-up but probably she wanted to do it with her own capabilities. So he dismissed the thought.
Raven was also afraid to lose him as a family. So, among the conditions was whatever happens with their relationship in the future especially if it doesn't work-out. No one should be bitter to each other and they must maintain good harmonious relationship with each other and to their father as well like a family.
'Just how pessimistic she can be?' Jordan thought considering her age as usual that still has a long way to go for maturity he guess.
Although he himself cannot tell what the future holds, but one thing was very obvious with him, he certainly wanted Raven to be a part of it, whether bad or good things may come his way.
He can no longer wait because everything depends on his father's condition. So for now, he will revise some of her conditions and let her sign the document for his advantage later on.
He will play a little more with Raven's emotions right now for her to sign the agreement without proper thought. Jordan shook his head. He was becoming cunning these past few days.
However, becoming cunning was somewhat an effective way to catch Raven in his trap. He redrafted the document and instructed Lou to have it finalized by their family attorney after lunch so he can present it to Raven already.
After the usual family lunch, Jordan looked at Raven and said. "Accompany me for a while."
"Huh? Me? Where?" Raven asked in return.
Senior Choi interrupted unconsciously, "Can I also come. It's quite boring in here without Raven around."
Jordan frowned and answered in question, "Do you really want me to be married or not?"
"Of course I do ASAP. That's why I gave you the ultimatum but what is the connection if I accompany you also with Raven?" Senior Choi asked innocently although he was getting the idea.
Raven's face flushed and rose up quickly. "I'll just get dressed and be out in five minutes." She said before going up to her room.
Senior Choi chuckled after Raven left. Jordan looked at his father and said, "She offered help. I guess she pity me becoming penniless in a year."
"Nah, we both knew you won't get broke without the inheritance. She just doesn't want your hard work be meaningless. She had witnessed everything remember? I even recall how she sarcastically insisting that you are married with the company that's why you are loveless up to now." Senior Choi explained.
"Just be patient with her you know how low the EQ of that one besides she's probably the late bloomer type but one thing is clear, that she really likes you a lot." He smiled at Jordan while he said the words.
Then Senior Choi's face suddenly became serious. "Son, you know you can always ask me for help when it comes to Raven right? So as much as possible don't do things on your own especially if that plan was nothing good at all or may bring a misunderstanding instead."
Jordan understands what his father meant. He smiled lovingly to his father and said, "Thanks Dad. I will, next time."Truly, his father knows best. He wanted to cry and hug him that time but chose not to hearing Raven's footsteps towards them.
Raven looked at him and said, "Let's go?" then she walked and kiss father on his cheek.
He drove the car in a coffee shop and ordered for a desserts and hot coffees.
"What's that?" Raven asked seeing the envelope on the table.
Jordan sighed and answered, "I did some revision on your conditions and have Atty. Gray to finalize it. Eat up first then you can review and sign it afterwards.
Raven raised an eyebrow.
'Revision? Review and sign? Am I the one needing help in here? Hello?' She wanted to voice out her thought but choose not to for the meantime. She will read the revision he made first before she fires out her comments.
