How do I repay you?

She went inside and saw some mobs beating her little brother and dragging him toward the door. He was protesting against them while her mother was screaming to attract neighbours to their rescue.

When Lara saw what was happening, She rushed to shield her brother thereby receiving some few blows. ''Stop this nonsense and tell me who you are'' Lara Said trying to hold her brother in a hug. ''they were sent here by the agent who rented this apartment to us, to throw us out. Hong was trying to make them understand that we still have three months before our rent expires. Instead of considering what he said, they started beating him and wanted to throw us out'' Lara mother explained huriedly amidst tears.

Turning to them, Lara cursed them ''you pig-headed idiots, how can you beat a boy in his house who have done nothing except telling you the truth. I will call the police now if you don't...''. ''Having just been bailed from the police station, you want to return there I guess?''.

Lara was shocked, had someone else knew about her arrest? raising her head, to look at the direction of the voice, she saw the manager of the company whose agent rented them that apartment. ''We have three months left before our rent expires, how can you just throw us out like that?'' Lara's mother tried to explain to the manager.

"If anyone tries to stop you again, break their bones, the manager instructed the mob without paying attention to what Lara's mother said. The mob was about dragging Lara out when they heard " your bones will be the first to be broken!".

The mob paused, and looked at the man who just spoke. seeing him made beads of sweat rose on their fore-heads. The manager felt his cloths drenched in sweat at the sight of the man.

Lara and her mother were surprised at the stranger. They saw the manager shivering and his lip shaking. Lara recognised him at once, he was the man yesterday who made her drink his juice. This man, she tried to warn yesterday lead her to what made her lose her greatest treasure (her virginity). Who on earth was this man in front of her.

"President....Jang.....you are here?" the manager was shivering. He was sweating now and he didn't realise it yet. What does President Jang wants here of all places?.

President Jang?, Lara muttered silently, so the man she had helped yesterday was the renouned president Jang of the Jang Group?. She had never meet nor see his picture. He is a reserved man who's name is almost known in the whole of the central province. But his facial look, only a few have seen it. This was the man who had bailed her earlier she guess.

Joey Jang lgnored the question of the manager and light a cigareth. He was a tall handsome man who carried a cold chilling aura. He's arrogant and self composed. He took the cigareth to his mouth and held the lighter out, which was immediately taken by his assistant Lee Liang. He ignored the manager completely and treated him as air as he tested his eyes on Lara Su.

Lara sensed that President Jang was going to look at her hence she looked down, refusing to raise her head in order not to meet his gaze. He stared at her petite figure. He own his pride and reputation today to this girl in front of him. She's beautiful no doubt, but seems to lack the resources to take a proper care of herself. He had already investigated her and knew she's a poor daughter of Mrs Su, a retired matron at the orphanage. Lara was a daughter she adopted when retiring from the orpanage and raised her all to be the only sister her son Hong have.

He stared at her as she remained head-bent. She saved him and he had to save her life and the only way he could save her was to have her all night, he wondered how she was able to stand on her feet so soon. She must be a very strong and brave girl.

He turn and puff the smoke of his cigareth in the manager's face. "What now, can't I come visit my girlfriend?" Joey finally gave an answer to the manager.

Girlfriend? did he hear what president Jang said correctly?, he referred to this poor shit his girlfriend? wasn't he told that she has no backing whatsoever?. So she was actually the boss's woman?, his life is on the line, he wanted to disappear out of sight to calm his nervousness.

Lara froze at his words, she raised her head and meet with his gaze; The corner of his lips gave a faint smile. Lara turned her face away quickly.

Gush he's so charming. His smile almost left her in a daze. And just now, did he call her his girlfriend?. If indeed she lost her first time to him, she didn't mind. Just the sight of him can melt the heart of the strongest morally upright girl.

"No....Yeah... l mean yes you can president Jang" the manager answered. He became nervous, not knowing what next to do, he added an explanation on what he was not asked, "yeah, actually we... I mean I brought some boys to help clean up the entire apartment for Mrs Su. I had known already that she was going to be the future mother-inlaw of president Jang. I then followed my intuition to bring boys to clean everywhere up".

Lara felt her brain almost splitting. This man would definately have excelled as an actor. He shouldn't have been a manager.

Mrs Su opened her mouth agaped, brought boys to clean her house? When had she become a super star that she needed such hefty muscled men to clean her apartment? she had never found a perfect liar in her entire life like this man.

Lee Liang gave a chuckle and shook his head . "Fine then, start cleaning at once. Wash the toillet and scrup the floors. Cut the grass outside and make sure the kitchen is tidied up" Lara instructed.

"Yes miss" the manager replied, his shirt was drenched already and beads of sweat were on his forehead. Turning to the two mobs he brought: "Get the brooms and mop and start working immediately". They both dashed into kitchen before seeing the store located at an extreme corner of the apartment. they soon came out holding broom and mop.

Without waiting for instruction, one of them who was holding the mop went straight to the cushion and started using the mop on it. The manager rushed forward...
