Chapter 4：Proposal

"Good morning, how may I help you?" Kira asked.

The man in black bowed his head, "Good morning." He greeted and then he straightened his body and ask, "May I speak to Miss Kira Li?"

Kira knitted her brows, 'How did this man know me?' she asked her self.

"I... I am Kira Li, is there anything that I could do for you?" Kira asked again.

"Miss Li, my boss wants to talk to you," The man said.

"Who's your boss?" Though she has the idea, she still asks to make it sure.

The man looked at the person leaning on the car.

"It's Mr. Timothy Tan." the man said.

Kira followed the man's gaze.

"He is my boss, ma'am."

Kira looked back at the man in front of her. "Why he wants to talk to me?" she asked.

She doesn't even know these men!

It's better to be sure, there's a lot of bad people nowadays!

Tim is leaning on the car and he's almost out of patience, 'Why is this woman is not letting us in?' He mumbled.

He has been standing there for a while now!

After a while of watching, Tim couldn't wait any longer, he walks closer to the woman and his secretary Coby, and joined their conversation.

"I want to talk to you personally," Tim spoke as he took a stride closer to Kira and Coby.

Kira looked at the man who spoke.

"Why?" Kira asked.

"What do you want from me?"

"Are you not going to let us in first?" Tim asked the woman instead of answering her question.

"Why would I let you in?" Kira asked sternly.

"Because we are your guests!" Tim replied with a smile on his face.

"As I remember, I don't expect guest this morning!" Kira replied.

"Miss Li, we are not bad people and we don't have bad intentions, just let me in, and I have something to propose to you," Tim said.

Kira looks at the man suspiciously, she tried to observe him, 'this man doesn't look like a scammer though!

Tim notices Kira's suspicious look.

He puts his hands up, " You can do a body check on us if you want." Tim suggested.

" But I am sure, we don't bring any deadly weapon, I can assure you that I am a harmless person."

"Do you want us to take off our clothes for you to make sure that we did not bring any weapons?" Tim asked.

"Don't bother doing it!" Kira refused.

She sighs, and opens the gate and let them in.

-----

Kira brought her guests inside the house.

Tim sits down on the sofa and crossed his legs.

"Do you want something to drink, Mister?" Kira tried to be polite and asked the man.

"Coffee, please!" Tim replied.

Kira turned and heads to the kitchen to prepare a coffee for her guest.

When Kira left, Tim gestured Coby to leave.

Kira gets back to the living room with a cup of coffee.

"What is it that you want?" she asked.

Tim did not hurry to answer Kira's question, he picks up the cup of coffee and takes a sip before he put it down to the table.

Tim looked at the woman in front of her.

"First of all, I want to introduce my self to you. I am Timothy Tan."

"Your bodyguard told me earlier," Kira replied.

"Oh!" Tim blurted out.

"Anyways, I came here because I have a proposal for you," Tim said.

"What proposal?" Kira asked.

"A marriage proposal," Tim said straight forward.

(cough! cough! cough!)

Kira cough!

She suddenly chokes when she heard Tim's answer!

'Wait, what?!'

Did she hear him right?

Are her ears aren't working good?

Or maybe she's just hearing things?!

Tim just looked at Kira without a change of expression!

It took a while before Kira calmed down.

"Ehem!" Kira cleared her throat when she calms down.

"W-What..." Kira doesn't know what to say!

"What did you just say?!" She asked.

"I said, a marriage proposal," Tim said plainly.

"Ha!" Kira let out a short laugh!

"Seriously?!"

"Yes!"

"Hey! are you trying to play a prank on me, huh?!" Kira said in an unbelievable expression!

"Do I look like I am playing a prank?" Tim asked back sternly.

Kira closed her eyes tightly as she took a deep breath.

"Mister, I got too much to think about, please don't add to it, alright?!" Kira said sternly.

"Are you refusing my proposal?" Tim asked.

"Hey!" Kira is starting to get annoyed!

"I don't care what kind of drug you've taken or what your problem is, but please! Don't me! I have no time for this!" Kira thought that Tim is just someone who had unstable mental health!

"Kira Joson."

Kira automatically froze.

"That was your name before Helene Li adopted you, isn't it?" Tim continued.

"But now, you are Kira Li, a twenty-four-year-old teacher in J International School, born on the fifth day of January year nineteen ninety-one."

Kira was stunned when she heard Tim!

"H-How..."

'How did he know it?' Kira thought.

"How did you know that?"

"Are you stalking me?!" Kira got alarmed!

"Hey! Are you a swindler, pretending to be rich and victimize people like me?!" Kira has gone paranoid!

Tim just smirked, "Do I look like a swindler to you?" he asked.

"Hey!" Kira has lost her temper!

"Why do you keep on asking me back whenever I ask you a question?!" She asked in a raised voice!

"I am an influential man, I can dig every little information about you." Tim ignored Kira's attitude.

"You're a psycho!" Kira started to get scared!

"Leave now, before I call the police to send you to jail!" She threatened.

But Tim did not move, he is unmoved with Kira's threat!

Kira picks her phone and shows it to the man.

"I am calling the police now!" She said bravely!

"Go on!" Tim said as he picks up the cup of coffee and sips on it again.

Kira started to dial the police's hotline number.

"I heard that your auntie needs medical attention!"

"I can provide her everything she needs if you'll marry me," He added.

"W-What?"

"Who exactly are you?" Kira gets curious!

"I'm your future husband," Tim replied.

"Haha!" Kira let out a laugh!

'Did he say my future husband?' Kira thought.

"Hahaha!!"

'This man is crazy!'

Kira continued to laugh.

She laughs as if she heard the funniest joke!

"What is so funny?" Tim asked with his brows knitted.

"Ha... ha...ha..." Kira tried to hold her laughter.
