8 NEVER LIE WITH HIS WORD

Today a man is struggling with piles of paperwork to be signed. However, suddenly someone knocked from outside making the man immediately invite him to enter the room.

"Sorry to interrupt, Sir. There's someone who wants to see you."

"Has he made an appointment with me?"

"I think so, Sir."

"Oh yes?" Then Van tried to confirm it before finally immediately sighed for a moment. "Oh my God, I forgot about him. Oh well, let him into my room."

"Yes, Sir."

After that, his secretary came back out of the room, while Van is currently back struggling with the files.

After waiting for a while, the person in question finally came, making Van who saw him immediately stand up from his oversized chair to shake hands with the man who was his father's best friend.

"Oh, please come in and have a seat."

"Thank you, Van." The man smiled at him before finally sitting on a nearby sofa. "How are you now?"

"I'm good, Uncle."

"I just wanted to visit because I didn't tell my name right then."

"O-oh, like that, huh. I think there's something Uncle wants to talk to me about."

"Because I haven't seen your father in a long time, and at that time he was still the highest office holder in this company. Today I just wanted to see how you work."

A little surprised, but Van had to be kind to the man in front of him because he was a friend who had helped his family when they were on the verge of collapse.

"Turns out you look a lot like your father, huh? Oh, I forgot about it. Of course, because you're his son, huh, haha."

"Haha. Oh, yeah, does Om want to drink something?"

"No need, I won't be here long anyway."

"At least Om drank something here before leaving, huh."

The man smiled for a moment before finally taking a deep breath.

"Okay, if you insist."

"Wait a moment."

After that Van got up from his seat and went to approach the table to call someone. While the man who was sitting on the sofa there was smiling while watching every corner of the room with a smile that never disappeared.

"Please make a drink for my guest and bring it to my room as soon as possible."

"Yes, Sir."

Then Van returned to the man and sat down right in front of him with that friendly smile.

"Wait a minute, they'll bring the drinks here."

"Okay, thanks, Van."

"You're welcome, Uncle."

"Oh, yes, I just remembered. So my name is ---" Van interrupted, "Uncle Han."

Hearing that made the man in front of him immediately raise his eyebrows with wide eyes because he was surprised by Van who already knew.

"O-oh, so you already know, huh."

"No, but I can honestly tell from the name tag you put on your clothes."

"O-oh, huh?" The man immediately looked at his clothes by bowing his head before finally looking up again at the person in front of him with a sweet smile. "That's true, b-but since when did I put it on, huh?"

In contrast to Van who currently only smiled before finally turning his face in another direction. He wanted to laugh, but he tried to hold it in.

A few moments later a knock on the door made Van immediately look toward the source of the sound.

"Come in."

It turned out that an employee had just delivered his order so now Van immediately asked for it to be kept on the table before finally thanking the person in front of him at this time.

"Thank you, Van."

"You're welcome, Uncle. Please just drink the coffee."

On the other hand at this time a girl had just returned from college. Via sighed as she looked at her phone screen because she found several missed calls from her father.

"Via, do you want to come?"

"Where to?" asked the girl with raised eyebrows.

"We're going to the mall, because tomorrow is the weekend, so I want to have fun."

Hearing that made Via immediately take a deep breath before finally shaking her head. While his friends who saw this were immediately sad.

"It's okay, it's okay, it so fighting spirit, Via."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, let's go first, shall we?"

The girl was just silent while smiling then nodded her head looking at the departure of someone who was in front of her at this time so that Via at this time could only sigh for a moment.

At the same time, someone suddenly tapped her on the shoulder, causing Via to immediately turn and look at Aldera who was in front of her at this time.

"Hey, Via."

"O-oh, hey Dera."

Suddenly, her phone rang, causing Via to look directly at Aldera. While the young man who understood nodded his head with a sweet smile.

Finally, the girl immediately answered her phone from her father so that Via now walked a little away from Aldera who was still silent in his place while watching his movements with a gaze full of admiration.

"Hello, Dad."

"Are you done, honey?"

"Yes, Daddy."

"Then hurry to the curb, Daddy will be waiting here."

Hearing that made Via immediately flabbergasted, after that she took a deep breath before finally lowering her head for a moment.

"Via," John called. "Are you still there?"

"H-hello, Dad. Yes, I heard you. All right, then I'll go over there now."

"Okay, don't take too long, will you, honey."

"Okay, Dad."

After that Via put her phone back and took a deep breath before finally biting her bottom lip. The girl was confused because she didn't know what to do with someone behind her right now before she decided to approach Aldera again.

In contrast to Aldera, who had been watching silently so far, the girl who knew it immediately lowered her head.

"Dera," said Via. "Sorry, I can't linger, huh, because..."

"Your father is waiting, right?"

Hearing that made Via immediately look up in surprise after hearing what the person in front of her had just said before finally nodding her head slowly.

While Aldera just smiled with one hand rubbing the top of the head of a girl in front of him while saying, "I understand, even without you talking. Go, see you another day, okay."

"Okay, thanks Dera." Via returned a smile from a young man who was in front of her at this time so that the girl waved her hand at Aldera while saying, "See you again."

Finally, Via stepped away leaving Aldera who was still waving at her before the girl finally saw a car parked neatly in front of a bus stop.

"It turns out that daddy never lied with his words."

The girl shook her head so that Via now approached the car and opened the door before finally getting inside. Beside her was John who had been watching with his sweet smile.

"Via, do you want to help Daddy?"
