Chapter 53

What Ashley just said was true, suddenly Tanaga was silent and could not answer her question. He temporarily stopped eating and was in deep thought.  

' Ashley's right, she has a point there.  It would be a problem for her to introduce me to her family.  I'm sure they wouldn't believe that we're married.  It's only been a week since she left the Philippines to come to Japan. Hmmm?'

"How about this, I have an idea that would make it much more believable.  We would get a room in a hotel, and you could tell them to meet you there instead.  This way, when they do meet me... Then you can introduce me as your boss from Japan. 

"Isn't that why you went to Japan to work for a company?  Well, let say you're my employee.  By the way, what kind of job are you supposed to be doing?"  He asked to make sure they were on the same page.  They need to make sure they do not make a mistake when they meet her family.

Ashley looked at Tanaga seriously. Because it does make sense, he's suggestion could work.  It's believable to anyone's ear since it's a fact that she went to Japan to work and not to get married.  Ashley was excited about his idea, and it was showing on her face.

"All right, I'll text them tonight. When they answer, I'll call back and say I'll be there tomorrow for a business trip and I'll give the hotel where we will stay. That could work! ..."

"By the way, Personal Assistant was the position I supposed to have. I'm not sure if you knew that I hold a degree in Business Administration with Management.  However, since I'm a newly graduated, I only have an internship under my belt.  And I had never worked in any company before that." 

Ashley replied embarrassingly as she glanced at the plate in front of her, instead of Tanaga.

"Hmmm, then that's your job then, just tell them you're my Personal Assistant.  Tell them we came because I have a Business deal.  That's right! If they ask you what company, say my company name. 'THJ Group' The type of business is too much to list."

"All right! If you don't mind, that's what I'm going to tell my family. All right! Hahaha! I'm sure they will be glad if they found out that I'm coming back here so soon, in just one week. They'll see me again."  Ashley was delighted with Tanaga's suggestion.  

She was so excited that she had lost her appetite and couldn't wait to finish eating so she could text her family Immediately.  To make sure that she would get an answer, she did group texting for every one of her family members. This is to let them know, just in case they were all busy, another one could reply.

Ashley anxiously waited, she's so nervous and excited at the same time ... Her smile was too beautiful and captivating that it's almost impossible to draw if someone would want to try.
