“Sir, everything is ready. Would you like to have your caffeine shot on the go or would you prefer to have it at the office?”

“I’ll have it at the car.” I replied.

I am Paul Ian Tan, 27 years old, one and only son of Mr. Mark Chua Tan and Mrs. Pauleen Cruz Tan. A son of Filipino-Chinese Conglomerates based in the Philippines.

Just the fact that I am a son of conglomerates means I have everything. I get everything with just a snap of my fingers. I never strive for anything nor need to work hard for anything since everything is just at reach of my hand.

But did I ever need any of this? I do not know.

I took a sip of my coffee and stared at the car window blankly. I wonder where will this stream take me again?

“Sir? Off to go?” My secretary asked as he opened the car door.

I stood out of the car and buttoned my suit, entering a huge building. “What’s for today, William?” I asked.

He then updated me for todays schedule nonstop, until we reach the top most floor where my office is located.

I sat on my swivel chair then inquired Wil for the contract papers that needs to be reviewed and signed today.

Nothing is new, tirelessly reading contracts, finding loopholes that might be overlooked by other executives assigned.

I was then interrupted by William as he enter my office. “Sir? It’s about time for your board meeting. May I remind you that Mr. Mark Chua Tan will be present too.” I just give him a nod and answered, “Yeah, sure. Thank you, Wil.”

“It’s a pleasure to be of use to you Sir Paul.” He babbled with a wide smile.

......................

“Good day, everyone, Sir Mark Chua Tan. Sorry for keeping you waiting.” I greeted them as I enter a very formal yet modern and minimalist looking executive boardroom.

They all greeted back as they sat down, making few subtle noises from their swivels.

Sir Mark Tan gazed at me then said, “You may start presenting for today’s agenda, Sir Caleb our Chief Information Officer.”

Sir Caleb then thanked Sir Mark Tan as he proceeds to present information about our international businesses and things that requires urgent attention.

They exchanged words and ideas, not ending the chatter. I breathe a heavy sigh hearing things about business that somehow made it to be part of my daily routine now.

Did I ever reject their ideas? Is there any chances that I denied my father’s decision? I don’t think there is ever an instance that I made an effort to even bat an eye whenever he is involved.

I may be able to locate any failure or anything that is wrong to any deal and contract they made, I may be able to suggest resolution but Sir Mark, my father always have the last say to it.
