The Stalker: Ch 12: Just Talk

Ch 12

It’s been an awfully long time since I last updated this fanfic, and it’s actually supposed to be one of my personal favourites...but I guess lately I haven’t been as motivated to update and my interest in TVB has also decreased. Regardless, I hope you enjoy this rather dialogue-full chapter.

==

~Empire Hotel Restaurant~

The two of them sat there, after finishing their dinner were waiting for their desserts to arrive.

Ron: So, it’s still my turn, isn’t it

Linda: I guess so...

Ron: What are your plans after all of this?

Linda: What? Isn’t that what I asked you?

Ron: You...did, but it wasn’t your turn...so...what are your plans?

Linda: I guess...it would depend on what happens next

Ron: What happens next?

Linda smiled: Oh, but it’s my turn to ask now

Ron chuckled: That was quite the smart move Ms. Chung

Linda: Why thank you...anyways, what are YOUR plans?

Ron: I don’t know yet...it depends on how things turn out

Linda: Oh...

Ron: Ya...well...looks like our desserts are coming

Linda: Their Crème brûlée is amazing

Ron smiled: It better be...or else I’ll hold you responsible

Linda smiled: Ron...thank you

Ron: For what?

Linda: For making me smile

Ron looked at her; her beautiful features all seemed to be highlighted under the lights of the restaurant. She was beautiful...and her smile was radiant, and he hoped that she would be able to continue to be so radiant, so lovely and charming. He could see her hesitation in letting him in, letting him understand her, but all of this reservation she has also slowly seemed to diminish as they carried on.

Ron: My pleasure...and to be honest, I think you’re amazing...but don’t tell Leila

Linda laughed: How come?

Ron: She’ll think that I’m falling for you, and she might pull me out of the assignment

Linda: Really?

Ron: Ya...she’s like that...overbearing, motherly and well...a bit too controlling...don’t tell her that either

Linda laughed: All these years knowing Leila, I’ve never gotten the chance to see that side of her...maybe she’s just like that towards you...you must’ve been quite naughty

Ron laughed: Naughty...what are you getting at?

Linda: You know, like a modern-day Casanova, maybe...

Ron: Oh, now you’re just flattering me...

Linda: I’m not sure if it’s really flattery, since I bet you the female staff will all agree with me that you do have quite the charisma and charm...

Ron: Maybe...I should warn Leila that you’re the one falling in love

At his words she began to blush. It was a natural reaction to his words, but it was also that, that caught his attention

Ron: Does it mean it’s true?

Linda cleared her throat, recomposed herself and looked at him: If it was, the reporters and employees would have a field day

Ron chuckled: Ok...but did you really have to respond in such a cool tone?

Linda: Are you not used to this other side of me?

Ron: I prefer the blushing Linda Chung better...

Linda smiled: Me too...but with everything going on, I think being more cool would help me out

Ron: I know...how about this...you can be whoever you want to be around me...I really think if you keep this cool act going on for a while...you might get...constipation

Linda broke out in laughter as the other customers watched the two of them

Linda: Really, constipation?

Ron: Hey...I’m just looking out for your health

Linda placed her hand on his

Linda: Thanks

Ron: Not a problem...anyways, it’s getting late...I’ll get the bill and drive you home

Linda: No need...I can drive myself home.

Ron: Alright

After Ron got the bill, the both of them left the restaurant and stood in the main lobby waiting for their cars. The first to arrive was Linda’s. She quickly got on and was about to drive off, when she suddenly rolled down the window

Linda: Hey, Ron...

Ron: Ya?

Linda: I had a wonderful time tonight

Ron: So did I...good night

Linda: Good night.

~ Ng Residence~

By the time Ron had gotten home, it was nearing 11 o’clock, but both of his parents were still up.

Michelle: Oh, look who finally comes waltzing in at this time

Ron: Hi mom, dad...

Wong Ching: Who’d you have dinner with, son?

Ron: Linda

Michelle: Linda?

Ron: Ms. Chung...

Wong Ching: You’re on a first name basis now...does Nancy know?

Ron: What?

Michelle: You come home pretty late, you just had dinner with another woman...it only makes sense that you tell your girlfriend...unless you’re hiding something

Ron smiled: I guess I should call her...

Wong Ching: First name basis...interesting

Ron: Is there something you’d like to tell me dad?

Wong Ching: I’m just saying...simply stating a fact really...

Ron: Uh huh...

Wong Ching: Nancy is a nice girl, son...you gotta learn to cherish her...

Ron walked over and took a seat next to his mom...

Ron: Mom, what’s dad trying to say...

Michelle: He thinks there’s something going on between you and Linda...

Ron: I figured that much out as well...but we all know this is a show...

Wong Ching: Ah hah! So it’s true then...my conjecture is absolutely correct.

Ron: No...

Michelle: So this is just a show for you, is it?

Ron: Mom...I didn’t mean it like that...

Michelle: Don’t you call me mom...since this is just a show, we’re merely acting as a family...

Ron looked at her and soon after he embraced her with both arms

Ron: You know I love you...and I’m glad we’re a family

Michelle smiled: That’s more like it...now...Ron, be a good boy and tell your father that Cheuk-hei and Ka-Yan are a lovely pair...(she grabs her laptop and shows him the pictures)

Ron: They do look nice together

Michelle: See...even our son says so...

Wong Ching: Ok...fine...your mother and son team wins...for now...

Michelle chuckled and whispered to Ron: But I always win...

=============

I hope you did enjoy it...and I hope you sorta got the reference I was subtly making. And if you didn't...well...I just wanted to point out how constipated Linda looks in most of YSSS...I seriously thought that she was constipated...or...on the verge of breaking out into laughter. It was a rather unatural cool look, in my eyes...but I guess everywhere I read, I seem to see great reviews...so ya...

Hope you liked the short chapter (short in quantity not length), and please comment, comment and comment...

OH...if you're interested in know...after A Truthful Lie ends...and I finish off Take 2...I'll be posting up a poll...to see which fanfic I should write next...at the moment I have two forewords written...and ya...we'll see how things go

Remember to comment!!!

The Stalker: Ch 11

Ch 11

I just realized that I haven’t updated this fanfic in two months. Even though this fanfic doesn’t seem to get much attention, I still think it’s something I should complete until the end. Anyways, this is actually also the first blog post of the new year...YAY!!! And yet I still write 2010 on my class notes...I guess I haven’t caught up with the time yet. So, without any further delay...enjoy!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Linda was sitting at the restaurant in the Empire Hotel waiting for Ron to arrive...she found it odd that she was waiting for him and not the other way around. But, she looked down at her watch and realized it was only quarter to seven and wondered why she had decided to come so early. Regardless, she sat there looking through the menu and once in a while would look up to see if Ron had arrived.

Only about ten minutes later Ron walked in with a smile on his face as he met her gaze. He couldn’t help but notice the fact that her glass of water was now half empty...which meant that she had obviously been there for a while now. He had never made a woman wait for him before...but then again there’s a first for everything.

Ron: You’re quite early...

Linda: I guess it’s out of habit, but it’s not like you’re on time yourself...

Ron smiled: also out of habit...I usually come five minutes ahead of time, and I would usually be the one waiting for my guest to appear...however, today seems to be the opposite

Linda: Well...

Ron: Though...I don’t mind it at all...

His words seemed to have eased her a bit...for some reason being around him made her feel awfully comfortable and wanting to let her guards down.

Linda: So...what did you want to talk about?

Ron: I wanted to get to know you better...I think that would be the best way to help you...

Linda: That’s not the first time I heard that

Ron chuckled: I don’t have an ulterior motive...I just want...to help you, and understand you

Linda: And why would you want to understand me better? Besides, you’re the professional, you can probably read me like an open book...and I’m just another ‘special’ assignment

Ron: Actually...you’re the first special assignment that I’ve been given...and I don’t want to treat you like an assignment...it wouldn’t make things any easier for me. And, just because I can seem to read you...doesn’t mean I can understand you...everything I see is interpreted in my way...but that doesn’t mean my interpretation is correct and it doesn’t represent who you are. Right now, I can tell that you’re trying to guard yourself from letting others in...but you shouldn’t guard yourself against me.

Linda: I...

Ron: from what Leila told me...you were close to Ms. Yeung...but when you found out about her...you were completely torn...I swear I won’t do that to you...not because it’s a part of my code, but also I’m not the type to take advantage of others...and if you don’t believe me...just ask Leila

Linda: So...what exactly is your relationship with Leila?

Ron: Huh? So, you’re just trying to avoid me asking you questions by asking questions about me now?

Linda smiled: Seems about right

Ron: Ok...well...Leila and I went out a long time ago...when we were still classmates

Linda: Oh...so what happened?

Ron: I got a little carried away with my work and stuff after graduation and we drifted apart. So...now it’s my turn...do you have a boyfriend?

Linda: What? I thought my uncle Bobby made it pretty clear that I don’t...

Ron: Well...he thinks you don’t...but maybe you do and you didn’t tell him about ‘him’

Linda: I don’t...I did...but not now...so, it’s my turn again...do you have a girlfriend?

Ron: I think you know the answer to that already

Linda: I mean...a real one...

Ron: No...or else she would probably go crazy thinking I’m cheating on her or something

Linda: Oh...what’s your plan after this is all over?

Ron: It’s my turn to ask...remember?

Linda: Fine...but let’s order something first...I’m kind of hungry

Ron: Oh, right...I almost forgot I asked you out for dinner, not interrogation

Linda laughed, and it was probably the first time he saw her laugh so whole-heartedly that he couldn’t help but smile. He knew that she’s a much more interesting person than she appears to be...and of course she’s a lot prettier too...especially when she was smiling or laughing just like this. Ron also knew that he wanted to help her be this amazing person again rather than live in the shadow of her late father and isolate herself from everyone around her.

~ Ng Residence~

Michelle: Honey, come here quick

Wong Ching got up from the couch, stretched and looked over to the dining table where his wife was sitting, staring at her laptop.

Wong Ching: Updates on the case?

Michelle: Just come here and take a look...

Wong Ching did what he was told and walked over

Michelle: Don’t they make a nice couple?

Wong Ching: You’re not serious...

Michelle stared at her husband: But I am...Cheuk-hei and Ka-Yan...they look really good together don’t they?

Wong Ching grunted: I guess

Michelle smiled: Oh...I really hope they end up together in Dwelling...they’re so adorable...look at all of these pictures...right honey

By the time she turned around to look at her husband, Wong Ching was already back at the couch, with his feet on the coffee table.

Michelle laughed: I know you still like Cheuk-hei with Yeung-yi...

Wong Ching: Of course I do... (he looked away) they’re much more compatible

Michelle walked over and took a seat next to her husband

Michelle: But they’re not as compatible as we are

Wong Ching looked at his wife and smiled: how can they be? We’re...we’re the perfect pair

Michelle smiled: Beauty and the Beast

Wong Ching laughed and put his arm around his wife: Beauty and the Beast

====================

There it is...an update...sorry about the delay though. I've been busy with school work and well I haven't exactly settled into my new timetable yet...so ya.

Anyways, please leave a comment or more. I hope you had a great start to a possibly great year and that you enjoyed this short but interesting update. I hope you don't mind me putting in scenes of Wong Ching and Michelle...I think they're an interesting couple in my fanfic...and they might actually play a bigger role than I originally imagined.
That's all the rambling for now, please comment...the more the merrier of course and...I'll update my other fanfics probably at the end of next week...but we'll see...(so no promises)

So, comment...and have a wonderful weekend/week/day

Randomness...OUT!!!

The Stalker: Chapter 10

I haven't posted anything in a long time...because I've been busy and a bit 'depressed' about how school's going for me. Anyways, I feel a lot better knowing that you're reading my fanfics and you support me, which is fantastic. So, Thank you...sooo much.

Now for the update:

Ch 10

Assistant: Sir, we’ve confirmed what Ms. Yeung told your son earlier and indeed there is a new employee at Eclipse Enterprise. We ran a background check on him and he seems to be clean...grown up in a decent family, part of the lower class. Father worked as and still works as a cab driver, and the mother is just a homemaker at the moment. He has a girlfriend by the name of Nancy Wu, a social worker who apparently helped out his family during a huge fire outbreak that cost them almost everything. Ron Ng then got a full scholarship to study business administration in the states, and after a few years also received his MBA.

As his assistant told him about the background of this new individual who might act as an obstacle for him, he remained calm and only spoke briefly.

Man: Is that all?

Assistant: Yes sir...that’s everything we found from our preliminary search on his background

Man: what I want to know is every little detail about this person...from the colour he likes to the type of women that can arouse him

Assistant: Yes sir...should I tell the others to follow him?

Man: For now we’ll take it slow...however, there’s no harm in being precautious...tell me, does it seem as though he has any intentions of courting Ms. Chung?

Assistant: Not that we know of sir, like I reported earlier...

The man raised his voice: I heard you the first time, he has a girlfriend...but he, like many other men are never satisfied with what they already have...whether it is in wealth or in lovers...

Assistant: Yes sir, I’ll remember that

Man: Good...you can go now...I’d like some peace and quiet

With that the assistant left the gloomy office and left the man in peace. For someone of his age, he was much weaker and much more powerful than he should be. To him, everyone was just a pawn in his life size chess game. He could use and manipulate anyone to his will, and this was exactly what made him become so powerful. The lack of emotions that seems to encompass him is his only strength and most deadly weakness.

At the age of 40 he was a widower for his own wife had committed suicide because of his lack of passion and emotions towards her, leaving him with two sons. His oldest son, now all grown up serves him no use except for the fact that one day that very son will help carry his casket into burial. On the other hand, his youngest son, his pride and joy easily became his most favourite chess piece. The boy was merely two years old when his mother passed away, making him rely heavily on his father unlike his older brother who saw the suicide as a result of his father’s negligence towards his mother.

Ironically, he saw parts of himself when thinking about his oldest son...a boy who resents his father and who mourns for the loss of his mother. However, his oldest son lacks the ability to withdraw himself from emotional situations, making him such an easy target. His youngest son on the other hand who he had shaped into the man he is today, is in much more control of his emotions and he can manipulate others’ emotions to his advantage... His older son used to tell him that one day he will be defeated by his own greed...

Man: But I will never be defeated by my greed...no...I will only ever be defeated by the hands of time that will age me and further weaken me...leaving everything I have behind to my loyal son... (He laughed)

~ Eclipse Enterprise~

Ron: Good morning Natalie

Natalie: Good morning Mr. Ng

Ron: How does my schedule look today? Am I supposed to be meeting with any clients or anything?

Natalie: Actually, today at lunch you’ll be meeting with Ms. Chung as well as Mr. Au-Yeung

Ron: Ok, thank you. Will you be joining us?

Natalie: I don’t think so Mr. Ng

Ron: Oh, well, if that’s the case then I guess I should just go over the previous files that I haven’t finished reading yet until then

Natalie: If you need anything, just give me a call

Ron: Thank you

~ Lunch~

Ron had met up with both Bobby and Linda in front of the building as the three of them headed off to lunch.

Ron: I wasn’t exactly informed of what I should bring to our meeting

Bobby: This, isn’t a meeting

Ron: Oh...

Linda: It’s always a tradition for uncle Bobby to take a new employee who’s in a managerial position to lunch on his or her first day of work

Bobby: I do apologize for my absence yesterday, I actually had to attend a conference, hopefully my niece took good care of you (He looked at Linda)

His look made her face turn pink, which Ron easily noticed...and realized that Linda’s amazing uncle Bobby had something up his sleeve.

After arriving at the restaurant and being seated...something Ron had expected started to happen

Bobby: So, Ron...how was your first day of work

Ron: I think it went well...I was just trying to understand the company better

Bobby: Natalie told me you went on a little walk to look around

Ron: Ya...I wanted to see how our clients are doing, taking mental pictures really...I hope that’s ok

Bobby: Of course...do you have a girlfriend?

Linda nudged her uncle

Ron: I’m sorry, did you just ask if I have a girlfriend

Bobby smiled and nodded

Ron: I do actually...have a girlfriend

Bobby: Oh...that’s a bit disappointing, isn’t it (He looked at Linda)

Linda: I think our female employees will be pretty disappointed to hear the news

Ron chuckled: Out of curiosity, why did you ask that?

Bobby chuckled: Out of old habit really...I’m a curious man myself and I like to get to know the employees of our company better. So, Ron...from your portfolio I heard that you studied in the States and earned your MBA while staying on a full scholarship...that’s quite impressive

Ron: I guess you can say that when some has that drive, that flame of passion – true motivation...anything is really possible. For me, striving for that goal was everything...I promised my parents that I would come back successful and won’t disappoint them and so I had to...to be honest, I didn’t have any other choice

Bobby: Not a lot of young men these days have such a drive...it’s usually about the money

Ron: Money can’t buy everything...and it definitely can’t buy happiness (he looked over at Linda unconsciously)

Bobby: And...it can’t buy love either...however, it can buy my favourite dishes at this restaurant...and here they come

After lunch the three of them headed back to the office where Bobby wanted to have a word with Ron in private, making Linda a bit worried.

~Ron’s Office~

Bobby: So how do you like your office?

Ron: It’s nice

Bobby: I see you haven’t tried personalizing it yet

Ron: It’s only my second day...I’m not sure what I’d like to put in it yet

Bobby: Not even a picture of your girlfriend?

Ron chuckled: She’s been asking me which picture I’d like to use

Bobby: I see...

Ron: I hope you don’t mind me saying this but...you don’t seem to believe me

Bobby: I don’t know if I should. You’re a new employee here, fresh from the States...usually guys like you should be ambitious...too ambitious...and so you’d be like every other male employee at our company; wanting to win the heart of my niece...but you...what’s your story?

Ron: What do you mean?

Bobby: You’re a clever boy...you know exactly what I mean. But, to be even more explicit...why are you working here?

Ron: I need a job...and your company had an opening...

Bobby: No...it doesn’t make sense...a smart guy like you, you should’ve done the research...realized my brother had recently passed away...leaving everything to my niece which makes her vulnerable...making this company itself very vulnerable...working here wouldn’t give you the job stability...

Ron: I’m just looking for a practical experience...I’ve sent out my resumes to a lot of other companies...and I had a lot of interviews but I lacked the experience...

Bobby: Ok...but the other thing I don’t quite understand is that my niece seems to be fond of you...which is strange...unless the two of you have known each other for a while now...

Ron: Ms. Chung is a great person but I’ve only met her recently...and I guess she’s fond of me because I give off a much more genuine vibe than most other people...

Bobby: It’s true...you do...it’s just a bit disappointing that you have a girlfriend...cause I really think my niece could use someone like you to help her get through this tough time...

Ron: She already has you...

Bobby smiled: I can give her guidance but...she needs someone who will always be there for her...

Ron: I’m sure she has lots of friends who will be there for her when she needs them most

Bobby: That’s actually not the case...but...I feel like I’ve said too much and I think I should let you get back to work...even though I suspect my niece will want to talk to you after I leave...so...enjoy the rest of your day

Bobby left Ron sitting in his office quite confused as to why he was being questioned but nonetheless he knew that Bobby only asked so much because he cared about Linda. Moments later Natalie came in and told Ron that Ms. Chung wanted to see him in her office...which was exactly what Bobby had predicted.

~Linda’s office~

Linda: What did my uncle ask?

Ron: He asked me why I’m working here

Linda: Why did he ask that?

Ron: A part of him thinks I’m like every other male employee who essentially wants to get together with you and...have more than just a little fun

Linda blushed: What did you say?

Ron: I told him I’m not here for that but rather for a working experience...but that’s not the complete truth

Linda: What?

Ron smiled: Don’t worry...I’m not here to get into your pants or any of that...what I didn’t tell your uncle was that I’m here to help you and help you get through whatever it is...though your uncle preferred that I’d be interested in you more...

Linda: Oh, well...he’s always like that, trying to be the match maker

Ron: He just really cares about you...

Linda: I know...

Ron: By the way, are you doing anything tonight?

Linda: Are you asking me out?

Ron: Not exactly...I just wanted to ask you a few personal questions that might require a bit of your time and using company money to fund my questioning doesn’t seem right to me. How about at the Empire Hotel’s restaurant at 7?

Linda: Ok, I’ll see you then
==============================

PS. is anyone else so excited about the upcoming release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I movie?

The Stalker: Ch 9

Who and Why

I’m so sorry for not updating this fanfic...and leaving it ‘hanging’ when I haven’t even revealed enough information about it...I hope everyone sticks around for this fanfic because it’s quite a story...well at least it is in my head lol

Recap:

So, in the previous chapter Ron had started working at Eclipse Enterprise as the manager for the marketing department. He then took a walk around the area to make observations with the intention of finding out more about his target. When he got to the flower shop, there was only Macy there and the two began having a nice little conversation, only to find out that his target his a ‘mysterious boyfriend’ who calls a few times a week. Just when Ron wanted to ask more about this ‘mystery’ man, Tavia (his target) comes back and the two of them exchange a few words before Ron leaves her standing there speechless...

Ron came home from his first day of work, ready to just lounge on the couch watching a TVB series or something with his ‘dad’ and hearing him complain about how horrible the quality the series has become. But to his surprise when he got home he found his ‘dad’ on the computer

Wong Ching: Why? Why are they doing this? This is ridiculous!

Michelle: What’s ridiculous?

Wong Ching: Take a look for yourself

Michelle: The poor boy is being paired up with another ‘new’ actress again...why are they doing this to him? And he’s not even a main lead in this new series...that is ridiculous

Wong Ching: Cheuk-hei deserves better...I thought he’d be actually paired up with Yeung Yi...look how compatible they are in that interview

Michelle: I really liked them in The Academy, but I think this time Cheuk-hei should be paired up with Ka-Yan, look at their outfits, they actually match...and it’s not the first time either

Wong Ching: They would make quite a good looking couple...but still Cheuk-hei and Yeung Yi...

Michelle: I don’t know...the more I look at the pictures the more I prefer him to be with Ka-Yan

Ron cleared his throat: Mom, dad, I’m home

Wong Ching: Yes, someone to break the tie...who do you think looks better with Cheuk-hei? Yeung Yi or Ka-Yan?

Ron: Well...Yeung Yi and him did collaborate before and...

Wong Ching: You have a good eye my boy

Michelle: So you think that Cheuk-hei looks better with Yeung Yi then?

Ron: I didn’t say that...I was just...

Wong Ching: So you prefer Ka-Yan over Yeung Yi?

Ron: you know what, I think I should take a shower first...for some reason you’re making it seem like I’m choosing my future wife or something

Wong Ching: hey, let’s pretend that YOU ARE choosing your future wife...now between Yeung Yi and Ka Yan, who would you pick?

Ron laughed: I think you’re taking this a bit too seriously?

Michelle: Just pick one...

Ron noticed that his phone was vibrating in his pocket and looked at the caller id

Ron: You know what, I pick Leila Tong...or at least I’m going to pick up her call before she thinks something’s not going according to plan

He walked into his room to answer her call

~ On the phone~

Ron: Hi, you just saved my life

Leila: Stuck in an argument between your new parents?

Ron: Ya...if this is how old married couples are, I don’t think I’ll ever get married...they were arguing about who looks better with some TVB dude named Cheuk-hei

Leila: Sounds like them, alright.

Ron: So? What’s this call all about?

Leila: Just checking on you, see how you did on your first day of work...

Ron: Shouldn’t you call Linda instead, isn’t it obvious that I would make it sound as though the day went extremely well and that you shouldn’t worry about a thing. But Linda, she would tell you the truth whether or not it did go well...so...

Leila: I already called her...so, I just want to see if your stories match...even though I specifically seeked you out for this mission...

Ron: Doesn’t mean you trust me 100% right?

Leila: Exactly

Ron: Ok...let’s see, it went pretty well...I got some looks of admiration from the female employees, some uncomfortable looks from the male employees...I had an interesting little conversation with Linda, took a walk on the street, met our target and left her standing at her flower shop speechless...that’s about it

Leila: You met our target today? Was she doing anything suspicious? Did you find out anything else about her?

Ron: Well, she’s extremely paranoid around me...she thinks I’m stalking her...which I guess is technically correct. But, what I found that was particularly interesting from her employee at the flower shop is that she has a mysterious boyfriend. Apparently he calls a couple of times a week...maybe you should look into that...you know, check who it is...maybe this ‘mystery man’ is another piece to our unsolved puzzle.

Leila: Alright, I’ll look into that...anyways, rest up...you’ve still got a long way to go with this mission. We’ll keep in touch...and maybe you should make our target less paranoid of you...maybe...take Nancy to the flower shop...you know...

Ron: For show...

Leila: Yup, for show

Ron: Ok...bye

Leila: Bye...wait...Ron

Ron: Ya?

Leila: Don’t get too attached, ok?

Ron: I’ll try my best...I don’t want history to repeat itself again...

Leila: Well, take care. Bye

~ end~

Before he could say another word, she had already hung up. She was always like that, always wanted to have the last word, whether it was during a normal conversation or an argument...that was the Leila Tong that he knew back in the day when they were still in training. No, it was even before that...too long ago.

Lounging back on his chair he thought about the things that he saw at the company today, and what Macy told him about the ‘mystery man’ who was apparently the boyfriend of his target...and in the pit of stomach Ron felt as though this ‘mystery man’ was involved with this case. Who could he be?

The other thing on his mind was the person who told Linda about her new ‘stepmother’ and about her past marriages...His thought then turned into pity...he felt her sorrow when he was having that conversation with her in her office, and he also saw a glimpse of hope from her...as though she was secretly wishing that her ‘stepmother’ wasn’t the type of person that the evidence seems to point to. He had to admit, Linda was a bit too naive and innocent to be involved in something so complex. From having her employees see her as a target to advance in their careers, to members of the board of directors viewing her as an incompetent replacement and to all of this. She deserved better...and so he too started to secretly hope that her ‘stepmother,’ his target...Tavia Yeung was in fact innocent...or innocently got involved in such a complex matter.

=================

I sincerely hope that you guys enjoyed this new update for my fanfic The Stalker. I seriously hope that you found the beginning a bit entertaining and ironic. Hopefully you all realize that the series that Michelle and Wong Ching were discussing was Yes Sir, No Sir. I'm really excited about this fanfic and where I'm planning to go with it, the plot...the characters and all of that. Funny enough the 'villain' of the story hasn't even been introduced yet...and well...I look forward to making his introduction one that will be quite interesting.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed the read. Please comment, either here or in the cbox...and once again 5 or more comments before an update.

So...comment, comment and comment!!!

Howdy folks and Happy New Year! I know it’s been a while since I last updated…actually the last time I updated was last year (gasps). Anyways, I should refresh your memory on my fanfic. First off, we’ve introduced many of characters, probably the majority…and we have a mystery man. So far, Ron had finished his interview and seemed to have impressed everyone present…which means that things are going according to plan. We’ve taken a look at Tavia, and how she is as a person…as well as how her parents feel about her. Oh, and let’s not forget that Ron has met Tavia and they seem to have gotten off to a horrible start

Now you’re probably wondering…how is this story going to get even more interesting? Well…let us all find out as we embark unto this story together…

==

A surge of happiness ran through her body as she told him he was hired…this only meant that she is a bit closer to finding out the truth.

A smile was now plastered on Ron’s face as he wiped away that single tear that won everyone in the room over. Ron was very impressed with his own performance, and so were most people in the room. As he stood there thanking everyone modestly, he quickly analyzed each person, as he did during the interview. These people were not ordinary people, each one of them had their own motives…and for some reason he found out that the most innocent of them all was Linda, the one who had asked for help to begin with.

What he didn’t understand was why someone so innocent and naive would even suspect of something so grand. This was something he wanted to find out…from her, himself. After he had finished thanking and shaking hands with everyone present he left the board room and was on his way out of Eclipse Enterprise. With his phone in hand, he immediately called ‘home’ to inform his ‘parents’ of his achievement…once that was done…he walked over to a little flower shop, owned by Tavia Yeung…

He walked in looking at the flowers deciding which he should send to Nancy to tell her of the great news. Even though this was just part of his role, he had to make it realistic…and buying flowers for his ‘girlfriend’ only fit the description of a good boyfriend. As he was looking through the variety of flowers around the shop, someone had approached him.

Macy: Hi there, how can I help you, sir?

Ron looked at her and smiled: I’m trying to decide which type of flower to send to my girlfriend

Macy: well…I would suggest roses, maybe pink or red…depending on your preference really

Ron: Actually…do you have champagne coloured roses by any chance? My girlfriend always said she really liked those

Macy: Of course we do…they’re right back here…

Ron: That’s great…could you deliver them today, so she could get them before she leaves work?

Macy: You’re not going to give them to her yourself?

Ron shook his head: I think sending them to her is more romantic…and then I can pick her up after work…and see her walk out with my bouquet

Macy: I guess we can do that…let me go inside and ask my boss

Ron: Sure thing…I’ll wait here then

A few minutes later Macy had walked back out with Tavia beside her.

Tavia: It’s you again

Macy: You two know each other? Boss, is he your boyfriend?

Tavia: In his dreams. Anyways, what are you doing here? Do you want me to call the cops?

Ron: Whoa, calm down there miss…I wasn’t stalking you earlier today…I’m just new in town and asked you for directions…and now that my job interview is over, and was a success I thought I’d send my girlfriend a bouquet of flowers thanking her supporting me through all these years…

Macy: Boss…I think you’re over-reacting…he’s just here getting flowers for his girlfriend

Tavia: You’re so naïve Macy…that’s what he WANTS you to believe

Ron took out his wallet to show both Tavia and Macy a picture he took with Nancy

Ron: That’s my girlfriend…so…is it possible to get a bouquet delivered to her today?

Tavia: Well…first I need to check if the place your girlfriend works at, actually exists and then we’ll talk

Ron chuckled: Sure…if that makes you feel less paranoid…

He gave Macy, Nancy’s business card…and Macy called the place like Tavia had insisted, confirming that she works there

Macy: boss…he’s telling the truth…his girlfriend does work there

Tavia: Fine…then the delivery can be made

Ron: Thank you…well…aren’t you going to give me a card or something so I could write a message to her?

Macy: Oh, right…here you are sir, I’ll prepare the bouquet and personally deliver it there

Ron smiled: Thank you…at least some people in this world are nice

Tavia: Excuse me?

Ron looked at her: I don’t know what gave you the impression that I was stalking you, but I can assure you that I have a life and a job…and stalking you would be a waste of my time

Macy let out an audible laugh

Tavia: Well…I guess I was wrong for accusing you

Macy muttered: You were wrong…

Tavia: I’m sorry?

Ron smiled: Apology accepted…oh by the way…I was just hired by Eclipse Enterprise so…if you see me around this area don’t assume I’m here to stalk you or see you…

Macy couldn’t hold in her laughter any longer

Ron smiled: Well…I should pay for the bouquet and the delivery charges…and then I’ll be on my way

Tavia: well…since I misunderstood you, it’s on the house

Ron: Why thank you…I guess I’ll see you around then (he winked at her before leaving the shop)

Macy was in the back room preparing the bouquet and giggling to herself. She had never seen her ‘nice’ boss so worked up like today.

Tavia walked in: What’s so funny?

Macy: oh nothing...

Tavia tried to raise an eyebrow but failed

Macy: Ok fine...since you’re such a great boss and all...I thought...he was your boyfriend

Tavia looked outraged: What?

Macy: For some reason he seemed perfect for you...totally your cup of tea

Tavia: What? You must be out of your mind...how can a guy like him, be MY cup of tea?

Macy: I don’t know...it was this vibe I was getting off of him and plus he’s good looking, and seems really genuine...and the way you reacted once you saw him...well...it was like you two were a couple who got into this huge fight...I don’t know...I’m just saying things now

Tavia: Well...don’t you ever say something like that again...

Macy: ok boss...anyways the bouquet’s done...should I go and deliver it now?

Tavia: Sure...do as you please...but don’t forget the card

Tavia went out to pick up the tiny card that was left on the counter by Ron...and out of curiosity she read the content.

~ Card~

To Nancy:

Guess what? I just got the job at Eclipse Enterprise, and it’s due to your support.

Love you,

Ron

~ End~

Tavia muttering to herself: Eclipse Enterprise...I wonder how she’s doing...(she heaved a sigh)

~ Ng Residence~

Both Michelle and Wong Ching were very happy with the result from the interview...this meant that the first step in the operation was successfully completed and they will have a chance to crack the case. Wong Ching sat in his usual seat on the couch watching yet another TVB series

Wong Ching: You know...do you really think that Tavia Yeung is as evil as Kam Ling?

Michelle: I don’t think anyone can be as evil as Kam Ling...nor can anyone be as nice as Sam Ho...I really hate these unrealistic characters. I never understood what TVB was trying to portray

Wong Ching laughed: TVB isn’t trying to portray anything...they actually told us through that Sam Ho that if you speak nice words and do good deeds...good things come your way...such a bunch of bull

Michelle: Wow old man, I think I can agree with you there

Wong Ching: Did you call me an old man? And you think you’re so young? You know people should accept how old they are...and TVB should do that too...making that Yuen Chui-wan wear those colours that were more befitting for someone decades younger

Michelle: It’s always about criticizing TVB with you, isn’t it?

Wong Ching: Oh please...I criticize you plenty...and besides there are things I like in TVB series...that other show...Born Rich with the poor rating was a bit better...I think...maybe I am getting old...I don’t even remember how it was

Michelle: That Rene was really good...

Wong Ching laughed: I realized something from watching these series...

Michelle: And what’s that?

Wong Ching: Women are dangerous...and so...honey, I love you (he looked at his wife and smiled)
