A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"I want to see Mr. Gu."

Yilia regarded the receptionist with haughty eyes, flipping back her hair in what she thought was a graceful movement.

The receptionist smiled politely and said patronizingly, "Do you have an appointment, Miss?"

"Appointment? No."

"I'm sorry, but you need to make an appointment to see Mr. Gu."

Yilia frowned impatiently, "Then you can make an appointment for me now."

The receptionist kept her condescending smile in place and sweetly said, "Not everyone can make an appointment with Mr. Gu. He is very busy. Please identify yourself first."

Identify herself?

Yilia was just a clerk for a small company. How could she identify herself? She felt she was being treated poorly, and was fast becoming angry.

"This is Mr. Gu's daughter." She held Beryl out like a shield in front of her and snarled, "Does this qualify as enough of an identity? Does a child need an appointment to see her own father? This is ridiculous!"

Beryl stood awkwardly, but said politely and in a sincere tone, "Hello. I came here to find my father. His last name is 'Gu', and his name is Jacob..."

The receptionist looked at Beryl for a long while. She couldn't help considering that the little girl did seem to look like Mr. Gu. Could it be...

"Surely, will you be responsible for the delay, if you keep a daughter from meeting with her father?" Yilia had summoned up her courage and chipped in.

Judging from her coquettish stance, the receptionist wondered if this woman was a past lover of Mr. Gu, and that she had brought her daughter here to find him...

True, Yilia was pretty, but certainly not gorgeous enough to win Mr. Gu's attentions. Besides her temperament was lousy! Mr. Gu would never like this kind of woman, would he?
