A Lover's Wish Read Online Free PDF

the day, Dao could think of nothing else. His anger hadn’t subsided either. He was angrier at himself than at Prodigy then. He was mad because he had allowed himself to be suckered in by everything that has been said after each incident. He began wondering what was taking them so long to get Mark and his client in.

    It was almost time to call it quits for the day when a knock came at the door and Mark stuck his head in.
    Dao motioned for him to come in. Behind Mark was Prodigy and behind him was Beth-Ann. They all sat down and Dao grinded his teeth before he began speaking. “I’m a very patient man,” Dao spoke softly. “But for the past two years, you’ve been a royal pain in my ass.” He eyed Prodigy who was lounging in his chair.
    “Sit up!” Dao thundered. Maybe it was the anger in his voice or something else, but the young singer flew upward into his seat. “You’ve only been here for two years and already you’ve cost us one point two million dollars in lawsuits and damages to public property. Do you understand how many people would kill to have what you have? Are you that dense that you don’t see what you have here and why you should do everything in your power to protect it? I’ve given you chance after chance and you keep racking up the bills! Do you know what your skinny ass on television is going to do to us? We have reputation to uphold.”
    Dao stopped to breathe before he turned to Beth-Ann. She handed him Prodigy’s contract and Dao ripped the papers in half. “You’ve just violated your contract one too many times. You no

    longer belong to Red Dragon. My lawyers will contact you. Now get out.”
    “Come on, Dao,” Mark pleaded. “This will end his career!”
    “Well, ask me if I care. He should have thought about that before he decided to give the world a view of his backside. Beth-Ann, call security.”
    “You can’t do this!” the young singer flew out of his seat. “We have a contract.”
    “How appropriate! Now you are acknowledging the contract? What did the contract say about representing Red Dragon? Answer me!”
    The kid didn’t speak.
    “You are nineteen years old and you have no respect for anything or anyone!” Dao snapped. “You have caused us to lose more money than you brought us. Every time we let you out in public, you cause one havoc after another, then you leave us to clean up your mess. Like I said before, I am a very patient man, Prodigy, but enough is enough. Now, you need to leave or I will personally throw you out. And trust me, it is a very long drop from this floor.”
    That cleared the room.
    Dao’s temples were throbbing. It was as if someone was playing a set of drums inside his head. He checked his email one last time to some bad news. His personal assistant had quit. With a

    shake of his head, he slammed the laptop shut, shoved it into his bag and left the office. “I can’t stand this crap,” he muttered angrily.

    At home, he took a small nap. When he woke up and remembered all he had gone through that day, the slight pounding came back. With a moan, he decided to try and get some work done and not wait for the morning. The first order of business was to find a way of getting a new personal assistant as soon as possible. But when midnight rolled around, Dao Zhi still sat before his computer typing out a mass email.
    No matter how many times he changed the wording, he was still not satisfied with it. He tried typing it all out in Chinese, then translating it to English, but that had been a major mistake. He had to get it perfect or close to it because it would be an ad to the newspapers where everyone would see it.
    It had been a rather trying few weeks and the day before had been the one sent forth to challenge him. At the last minute, he got an idea and added a slew of email addresses from people who had applied for work with Red Dragon before. They hadn’t gotten a job, but their resumes had interested him. When he finally hit send, he
