"I don't have a fever." Sky said as she kept her hand near her neck.
"Sister Sky, You don't have now. Morning your temperature was 102." Clark said as they sat on the couch.
David checked her temperature using a thermometer and asked the butler to give her porridge. Seeing his grim expression, Sky obediently followed whatever he said. After finishing her porridge, when she was drinking water, David handed her a tablet.
"Dad, I don't have a fever anymore. I will not take the tablet." Sky pouted.
"Fine. Let me call Jai and ..." Before he could finish, Sky popped the tablet inside her mouth and drank water making an ugly facial expression due to the tablet's bitter taste.
David and Sam had a faint smile looking at her. Clark laughed and commented, "Sister Sky, I didn't know you are scared of Mr.Barton."
Sky shook her head, "If he hears that I got a fever, he will run over here for nothing. It's too troublesome for him."
"Lass, Then when are you going to stop me worrying about you?" David sounded jealous.
"Why? Are you tired of me so soon? Since you are free, you can worry about me all the time." She took forever to say 'all' then she completed her sentence.
David rubbed her head lovingly, "There is a party tonight, All businessmen and businesswomen going to attend it. You are coming with me."
"Optimum?" Sky asked.
Optimum was a business meeting held in the capital city every year. Only the top twenty business companies in the country would be called to the Optimum.
Some would go for namesake, some would go to butter up the others, some would go to find the business partner and some would have other ideas.
David was being invited from only six years, in that one-year company was under Sky. So this will be the seventh year he would be going to Optimum. Last year Sky flatly refused hence David attended it. This year Sky received the invitation which she forwarded to David.
David hummed as a response.
"Dad, you can go and represent our company or we will send somebody else. I don't like business meets, I will be bored."
"Lass, who said it's a conference. It's a party. Didn't you read the invitation?" David asked as he signaled his assistant to give the card.
"Nope, I saw Optimum on the envelope and sent it to you." Sky said the matter of fact as she was checking the pictures of Ethan's Birthday party.
David handed the card to Sky, "Read" David said as he took her tab.
Sky went through the card and kept it the other side and started telling about the picture David was seeing. David's mouth twitched and he kept the tab aside.
"So are you coming?" David asked looking at her.
Sky shook her head and stretched her hand to take the tab. David hit her hand to stop.
"Dad, are you telling me to socialize with old people, have dinner with them and do the waltz? I'm don't want to." Sky made a puppy face.
Sam and Clark almost laughed looking at her. Sky shot them a glance and looked at David. Even though David was an obstinate man, he wavered looking at her.
"Chairman, Young miss will get exposure if she attends such events. Till now she never attended any business events other than Harley events." David's assistant suggested trying his best not to look at Sky.
