"Mr. Laurence! Mr. Laurence!" Cedric spotted Edward Chu calling Ray as he and his companions approached.

"Mr. Chu." Ray said with a cold nod. In front of his family and friends Ray had a naughty and charming personality, but when he was in public Ray turned into a scary gang boss.

"Mr. Laurence, we would like to congratulate you on a very successful ground breaking." Edward Chu said as he offered a gift to his benefactor.

"Thank you, Mr. Chu. But it's not my project. It's Mr. Reyes' here." Ray said as he accepted the gift.

"Congratulations Mr. Reyes. And to you all as well Mr. Sebastian, Mr. Abad, and Mr. Chan." Edward Chu said happily.

"Is this your man, Ray?" Alexi asked.

"Yes. The Chu's own a chain of drugstores I invested in." Ray said.

"Yes, congressman. Mr. Laurence has supported us a lot throughout the years. He is a very generous investor." Edward said in an attempt to further flatter Ray.

"If I may introduce my companions, this is my son Mark. He works at the family business, and my daughter Katrina, she will be working with us in the company after she finishes her masters degree, she was very much inspired by your sister Ayanna Reyes, Mr. Reyes. She sees her as the ultimate model of her generation." Edward paused waiting for Mr. Reyes to speak, but he only nodded when his sister was mentioned.

"And this is my soon to be daughter-in-law, Asia Hernandez." Edward continued pointing at Asia who was standing next to Mark.

"Aren't your dad and brother the ones Katerina just filed a case against?" Nicole suddenly asked in a very bitchy tone.

"Miss, my father and brother are innocent." Asia calmly said. She didn't know who Nicole was but she was with the five princes making her assume that Nicole was an important person.

"Are you saying Katerina is representing a liar? Cause Katerina never represents people like that!" Nicole said in defense of Katerina. Cedric already knew that Nicole was also trying to get Asia to embarrass herself.

"I- I didn't mean that." Asia stuttered.

"Nicole, dear, I'm sure Katerina can manage on her own. Besides I filed those bribery charges, so you can believe me when I say they are 100% true." Alexi pretended that he was attempting to calm Nicole down.

"Mr. Sebastian, my father and brother are innocent!" Asia insisted.

"Mr. Chu, I think you should bring Miss Asia elsewhere before she offends my friends." Ray warned Edward Chu.

"I am not going anywhere!" Asia screamed. At this people turned their attention towards the commotion.

"Miss Hernandez, are you saying that I am a liar? That the evidence we have collected against both your father and brother are false?" At this point Alexi seemed extremely scary to Asia, but she never backed down and always got what she wanted.

"Mr. Sebastian, my fiancée didn't mean that." Mark said in an attempt to avoid the conflict his fiancé was starting.

"Mr. Sebastian, my father and brother are being framed! They are good men. It's someone who wants to take power in Island's Inc." Asia still insisted.

"Asia!" Edward Chu scolded.

"Sir, she's just going through something right now." Mark said, this time to Ray Laurence.

"Alexi isn't a forgiving man. She's accusing both him and his younger sister Katerina. Katerina and Natalia are the most important people to Alexi." Ray said in his continued distant tone.

"Camilla." Mr. Reyes suddenly spoke out and everyone was silent.

Camilla appeared beside her boss.

"Get security to take Miss Asia Hernandez out. I don't like people like her ruining my event." At his instructions Camilla nodded and called over some guards.

"Mr. Chu, you may stay, since Ray can vouch for you. But your future daughter in law must leave. I also recommend that Mark Chu breaks off their engagement." Mr. Reyes said to Edward Chu. It was the most that Mr. Reyes had spoken since coming out, and it was to advise Mark Chu to break off his engagement to Asia.

"Dad, you and Katrina stay. I'll accompany Asia. We'll wait for you outside." Mark said to his father, keeping his head down in embarrassment.

After that the group went on to talk to other guests. As a result of Asia's outburst many guests were keen to show their trust in the congressman and his sister. Cedric wanted to laugh at the comments and praises many guests were throwing their way.

Outside at the parking lot.

"Why? Why did you have to run your mouth in front of them!" Mark Chu shouted at Asia.

"It's that bitches fault!" Asia screamed back.

"That bitch? That bitch? Do you even know who you're calling a bitch?" Mark was furious, clearly Asia had no idea who she was going up against.

"She's probably just some slut that Congressman Alexander Sebastian is dating." Asia said, brushing off Mark���s warning.

"That woman you are calling a slut is the heir to the Chan fortune. She's built more hospitals and clinics than you have shoes! And you have a ton of shoes! That's right. She's Nicole Chan, the sister to world famous doctor Miguel Chan, one of the five princes. She has more power in her little finger than you have ever had!" Mark had begun to wonder what he did wrong, why he had ended up with such a useless fiancé.

Asia gasped. She never expected that such a young looking girl could be Nicole Chan.

"My dad wasn't happy with our engagement from the start! He didn't even tell any of our relatives. He accepted it when your father was in charge of Island's Inc. He was hoping that could bring some sort of collaboration, and at least you were still the daughter of the president of Island's Inc. Now you're just the daughter of some criminal!" Mark was furious with what Asia had done.

"My dad and brother have not been convicted yet! Don't call them criminals!" Asia said in an attempt to protect her father's and brother's name.
