Chapter 29: 29. Underestimate Me.

"What do you mean he left in the middle of dinner?" Goerge asked.

"Exactly that uncle, he just up and left." Patricia said through clenched teeth.​​

"What did you do?" He asked.

"Me?" She said in disbelief "why do you assume I'm the one that did something wrong?" Her uncle gave her a pointed stare.

"I didn't do anything wrong" She affirmed.

"Well if you didn't do anything to make him leave then you probably didn't do enough to make him stay." George said leaning into his leather office sit.

Patricia laughed in disbelief, "Hey, why do I have to be the one that has to be at fault? He left in the middle of dinner, you should be questioning his choices, or his manners. Why are you asking all this foolish questions?" She scolded her uncle.

Her uncle laughed as well, a laugh similar and dangerous. A trait all Lee's carried, the type of laugh like that of a rattlesnake warning you of incoming danger.

"Are you questioning me now, niece." He asked her with a smile but no tone of amusement.

"What you don't like it? Then stop doing it to me" Patricia said with as much venom as he.

"And why should I? You are you Patricia and if I'm being totally honest you must have foolishly said something you shouldn't have." He said.

"No, the only reason you treat me like this is because I'm a woman. I must say uncle the story would be much different if I was a boy don't you think? Oh then you would crawling and kissing the ground I walk on." She spat.

Goerge laughed " awwn is that your fantasy? it's too sad." He said sarcastically.

"Don't kid yourself uncle, my father was heir to the Lee empire and following the normal line of things I should be next in line." Patricia said.

"But it's quite unfortunate and unlike the trait of your gender you are right, if you weren't born the way you were. Let me tell you dear niece you are nothing, just a little whore. So don't you dare think of threatening me okay?" George threatened her.

"Or what? Tell me uncle, you see as 'useless' as I am. You and grandpapa still need me and I won't be too cocky there. Don't dare underestimate me, it will be detrimental for you. And yes I am a woman but don't for a second think that's any disadvantage after all I am still a Lee." She said staring straight into his eyes.

"Woah" He sighed and started clapping. "Very inspirational, very touching" He feigned hurt. "Get the hell out of my office and go be the little whore you are and win that bastard Kang back or else..."

Patricia looked straight at him waiting for him to complete his sentence.

"You see uncle it pretty sad to see how people have deluded themselves into believing they are above authority. I don't take orders from you, don't forget. Grandpapa may be old but he is still very much in control and for the fact that he still hasn't handed the business to you means he doesn't think you competent enough, so stop worrying about me and think about yourself." Patricia said standing up.

"Just because you sell a couple of helpless women, doesn't mean that women are weak. And I'll be more than glad to show exactly what I'm capable off." She sneered.

"Bring it on neice, it'll be fun to watch. Don't you think?" He smiled.

Patricia rolled her eyes and walked out of his office, thinking about how to bury the idiot man that called himself her uncle.

Jamie walked out of his house with the intention to stop for some glazed donut on his way to work. He tucked his gun into the holster by his side and looked up. He sighed when he saw the person standing in front of his gate. 'Why am I not surprised, of course she wouldn't back down easily.'

"What do you want Lenora?" He asked from behind her.

"Oh! You startled me!" She said turning around.

Jamie gave her a pointed stare and she nodded in understanding. "Okay, fine I heard what you said yesterday..."

"But?" Jamie asked.

"But I can't help myself, and I know you can't either." She said and Jamie palmed his face and sighed in frustration. This woman never takes no for an answer.

'But ofcourse she's a reporter, it's etched in her personality.'

"And look I brought you coffee and see" She lifted a box of donuts and Jamie frowned.

"What? I got what you said yesterday but I know you'll never be able to sleep peacefully if you leave this case like this." She pouted.

"You mean you won't sleep peacefully leaving this case like this." Jamie corrected.

Lenora tilted her head, "Come on Jamie for old times sake?" She pleaded.

His expression darkened and he walked out the gate and stood in front of her. "Oh so you can use and deceive me again?"

Lenora bit her lip and glared at him. "Until when are you going to keep bringing that up?"

"Until you get it into your thick skull that working with you is the last I want." He said.

"Jamie!" She yelled.

"Stay away from me Lenora." He said walking away.

"Jamie! Hey! Don't walk away from me! You jerk" she screamed, a stray tear rolling down her eyes. "Until when are you going to be mean?" She said to herself. She cried as she watched him get into his car and drive off. Dumping the donuts in the trash and throwing the coffee against his gate she stomped away.

Katherine stood in front of the restaurant and drew in deep breaths 'I can do this, I can do this.'

She stood in front of the door willing herself to open the door but she couldn't make herself open the door. Knowing the dragoness at the other side of the door was enough to make her turn and run away. "Come on Katherine you can do this, you can do thi...-"

"Are you going in ma'am?" A staff member asked her.

"Yes ofcourse" she said clearing her throat she walked in.

"You here?" The older woman covered in diamond accessories and designer clothing asked her.

"Yes ma'am." She smiled. She walked to seat on the pillow placed on the floor when the woman motioned for her to do so.

As soon as she was seated the older woman started eating, Katherine knew the drill. She also picked up her cutlery and ate. But as usual she could only manage a few bites by the time the older woman was done.

"I'll cut to the chase since you have refused to listen to me."

Katherine dropped her cutlery and looked at the woman.

She threw some pictures on the table and Katherine didn't need to look at them to know what they were.

"How many times must I tell you to stay away from my son?" She asked.

Katherine bit back the reply that would be fitting to put the older woman in her place.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that? What do you have to say for yourself?" She asked.

"Mother...-"

"Don't you dare call me that!"

Katherine bit her lip and scolded herself. She called her mother out of habit after all that's what she grew up calling her.

"I'm sorry Madam Song. I promise there is nothing going on between Paul and I. You may ask him if you want, really." She said softly.

"I've been hearing that for god knows how long, why do you still appear around him?!" She yelled.

Katherine flinched at the sudden rise in tone.

"Ma'am please, listen to me. I'm telling the truth." Katherine said.

"I don't care what you say, all I believe is what I can see myself. Stay away from my son, understand?" She warned. Getting she threw the money from the meal at Katherine and walked out of the room.

Katherine bit her lips in frustration and blinked back the tears that threatened to fall. This had to stop she couldn't take it anymore. Just then her phone started to ring and when she carried she saw it was Jason calling. Rejecting the call she turned her phone off. She got up after arranging the scattered greens and placing them on the table. 'The waiter shouldn't have to suffer as well'. After she walked out of the restaurant in search for some comfort.
