Year 2014,,, Philippines, Manila...
At the top floor of the tallest building in the city, a man in black suite who seems to be a lawyer is in a hurry to enter an office without knocking for a voice to sound saying;
*Even the one they considered as the best lawyer in the city doesn't know how to knock. I bet it's too urgent for you to look like that.
The words let him realize his mistake so he quickly;
*I'm sorry boss but it's really urgent. Your Eldest son was arrested for hitting someone while driving under the influence of alcohol. No one died and can easily be settled by simply giving a big compensation but the one who got hit is not simple.
You can see the sudden change of expression by this boss as he;
*Tell me everything you know.
Understood the depth of the question for this lawyer to;
*On the side of law, we're a hundred percent at fault and definitely would lose in court so the best way is to convince the victim's side for settlement. The victim is just a student and no family background but a rising start in the world of boxing who's supported by the national government. I used money to keep the matter a secret and should give us a day or two to settle before the government step in.
Knowing the seriousness of the matter, this boss did not talk nonsense and directly;
*Then what should we do?
And was immediately;
*If the boss doesn't mind, I advice for him to speak with the victim himself and offer a very generous compensation that can't be refuse. You can also take with you your youngest daughter because she and the victim are classmates in one subject. Let's hope that their relationship is good and maybe, it can help us make a deal.
*Then how much do you think should be the compensation?
*Well, the victim has an upcoming title fight with a guaranteed hundred dollar paycheck and we should compensate that. The hospital bil...
But couldn't continue his words when;
*Wait a minute,,, don't tell me that the victim is Wei "The Iron Fist" Tayaban?
As soon as this lawyer heard the words, suddenly reminded of the fact that they ruined the future of a super star in boxing for him to unconsciously nod his head as he;
*It's really a badluck but it's him.
*Falk, so it's him. I can't believe that that useless son of mine hit someone who's more important than twenty of him. I even bet millions on him and expect to win big but suddenly, this inevitable winning become an illusion.
While expressing his thoughts, this boss was able to realize something for him to;
*A boxer with a good footwork, how can a car hit him?
The lawyer knows everything and easily;
*It's because he rushed to save a little girl. If it was not him who got hit, the little girl may had died for her fragile body. With this heroic act, it will be a hot topic for news stations to cover so we should be quick in taking action than them.
Was completely clear for its urgency so he finally;
*Then head to the hospital first and make sure for the matter not to be leaked. I will go get my daughter and follow you there. Just text the address to save time.
*Alright boss, see you there.
Went to acknowledge and left.
This boss was also in a hurry and left too.
On the way down to the building, called his daughter and inform her to wait for him at the school gate.
Twenty minutes later, a modified audi stopin front the gate for a beautiful teenage girl to get in.
Inside the car;
*What's wrong father? Do you know that I will miss a long quiz for this?
Ignored the character which she got from her mother and directly;
*Forget about class today. Your drunk brother hit a classmate of yours and I called you to help me settle the matter without going to the court. Money is noy a problem as long as we can affort it or your brother will go to jail for a long time.
*Why,,, it's brother again who only know how to drink alcohol. If you can't discipline him, he will surely kill someone one day.
*Well, although your brother is alcoholic, he's still obedient when he's not drunk so let's try our best to help him.
Showing that annoyed look as she;
*I will try but don't expect me to fulfill someone's lewd request.
*Well, you won't lose anything if that happens.
*Huh, of course I will lose everything: both the value of a woman and a wife. I'm sure you chose mother for that reason. What a useless thing to talk about. Tell me already the name of that classmate for me to think of the best approach to apply. It's true that I'm popular in school but it doesn't mean that everyone listen to me. Let's just hope that that
classmate is reasonable.
This father agrees to his daughter's words not to talk nonsense and said;
*It's Wei Tayaban.
The daughter heard it and can't help to;
*What,,, it's Wei Tayaban? How is he? Is he alright?
The reaction, anyone can assume the relationship of the two is close.
As a father, she somehow knew some things about his daughter and was able to guess things saying;
*Tell me girl, is he a boy friend of yours? I will give my blessing if it is.
The words, make this daughter blush as she;
*Don't talk nonsense father. It's true that we are classmates in one subject but never spoke even once. So I'm afraid my presence won't help you.
Seeing the blushing daughter, he want to tease more but they have already arrived at the hospital so he simply;
*There's no harm in trying so just do your best. I'm sure he know you as a campus beauty. Let's go. Meet the family's lawyer and head straight to see him if he's awake...
