《You Belong To My World (Completed!)》Chapter 30: We Can't Trust Anyone
Advertisement
"Arthit, I just found out your dad has been slowly putting all the company money in his private bank account by setting up shell companies. Also and his mistress is here too.
I think its time we file a criminal and divorce case against him before things get worse"
"Ah. Lets meet tomorrow Uncle and see what we should do"
I put down the phone still staring at the phone screen.
"Is everything okay?" Kongpob was looking at me with worry in his eyes.
"My uncle just called. Turns out my dad has been taking money out of the company's accounts. He is still in Bangkok with his mistress. And uncle wants us to start with a criminal and divorce case against him"
"And what do you think about it?"
"Me? Why does my opinion matter? He's probably right. We should go ahead with it"
"Of course your opinion matters Arthit. Do you trust your Uncle completely?"
"I don't know. I met him this week after several years.
When your own father wrongs you like this, you can't really trust anyone completely, but you have to take some risks."
" You could have died in that accident. We could have both been dead. I just found these listening devices all over your room. God only knows how many of these are present in your house. Your dad couldn't have done all this by his own."
I was just staring at Kongpob intently. He was right.
"Arthit, you really need to think about the people you can trust with your life, and keep everyone else out, at least till we resolve this thing"
"I—I trust you, Kong. I trust you with my life. There is no one else I trust more in this world"Kongpob bit his lower lip. "Arthit, I swear to god, if we weren't in a restaurant right now, I would have kissed you like a crazy person right now"
I went all hot and red. "KONG! We were talking about something else"
"I know, I know." Kongpob put his hand over mine. "Thank you for trusting me Arthit. I know we have only known each other for a over a month, but I promise I'll always keep your trust and protect you."
Ah, now he was just being irresistible
I moved forward and stole a kiss from Kongpob quickly, leaving him with shocked look.

"Arthit... what did you just..."
"What? You said you wanted a kiss" I took a big bite of my chocolate pastry and Kongpob just smiled. And so we shared the pastry in silence, just beaming smiles at each other
"Hey Arthit, have you always had the same staff at home?"
"More or less I guess. Some people might come and ago, but most of them have been there for years. Uncle Thipat has been with us since before I was born."
"I thought about it, but I don't think so. He was the one who encouraged me to meet mom. He was the reason I was even able to meet mom at the bakery that day. In fact, when I met dad at the house on the day of the accident, he was truly surprised when he saw me. Uncle Thipat knew I was coming to the house that day, he wouldn't have let me meet mom if he was working with dad.After all, mom was supposed to be driving the car that day, not me. "
"May be you are right. But I think we should do a complete sweep of the house to find all tracking devices and change almost all of the staff. We don't know who to trust right now."
"Yeah may be you are right. We don't need as much staff in the house anyway since its just mom there for now."
Kongpob looked up. "What about the security guards we saw outside? Have they been here for long?"
"No, Uncle Thipat hired them."
"Lets put an agency in charge of the security. We can ask them to routinely switch guards every week. When you can't trust anyone, its always best to trust money."
"Thats actually a good idea. I'll ask Uncle Thipat to find a good agency.."
"No, I'll take care of it, Arthit.
Just ask Uncle Thipat to fire the current guards.
From now on, we'll keep everything between us. "
"I am not too—"
Kongpob laughed. "Yes you are.
By the way, did your Uncle give you any details about your dad's illegal activities on the phone?"
"Ah. No not yet."
Kongpob took a deep breath. "Ask him to email you the details. We would have to verify his details and investigate on our own."

"How—how are we going to investigate on our own?
Kongpob smiled. "Arthit.. I'll take care of it"
"Seriously, Kong. How? Are you like a secret ninja or something because at this point, I'll believe anything you say"
Kongpob laughed and ruffled my hairs. "No, my dad's company has a private investigator. We can hire him to find some information
We also need to a good team of lawyers for this. Someone who doesn't get intimidated by your dad's power or money."
"I—I was planning to contact my mom's lawyers. They have been handling all her other legal work for years,"
" Your dad might know those lawyers."
"Ah. I didn't think about it. I guess you are right."
"I'll ask dad for a good lawyer recommendation. We need someone solid to nail your father into jail."
"Ah huh. Yeah. Okay" I was lost in my own thoughts when Kongpob suddenly snapped me out of it.
"Arthit? Is everything okay?"
"I am sorry I just can't stop thinking about the fact that dad is still Bangkok. I was really hoping and praying he would leave the country by now."
"Do we know what your dad is doing in Bangkok?"
"No, All I know is that his mistress is here too."
"He could be planning something. You just derailed his plan that he had put into action, probably for months. Like you said, he wasn't expecting you on the day of the accident. He must have a backup plan"
"He definitely does. But how do I find out what's he up to?"
"Arthit, give me your dad's number. The tech guy in my dad's company might be able to track his phone location."
"Uh sure, I'll message it to you"
Kongpob fiddles with his phone and types something.
"You sure have a lot of connections through your dad, Kong"
Kongpob laughs. "I am just a people person. I was always interested in meeting and talking to people in the company, but I was never really been interested in the business. I still don't know what dad really does at work and he hates that about me."
"Why not? You don't want to join the family business?"
"I don't know. May be, may be not? I want to figure out things on my own. One day at a time. Dad, obviously wants me to join the business as soon as I can. He thinks something might happen to him someday and I won't be able to manage the company on my own then. You know how most parents think?"
I look down. "I—I think he is right, Kong. We don't know what the future holds. You should at least help out your dad and learn the ropes. I am sure your mom and sisters will like it too."
"If you really think I should join the business, then I guess I will." Kongpob was smiling at me.
"My dad will be so happy when I tell him...
"Ah.. what now? Umm, well you obviously told me about it at some point Kong. How else would I know about it? Its not like the ghost in my apartment is telling me stories about you."
Kongpob gave a confused smile. "Yes, I guess you are right. Its weird. I really don't remember telling you that. I usually have a good memory"
"Umm. Yeah. May be you just forgot?Hey Kong, want to go pick up mom's car with me? The repairs are done."
"Yes, yes. Lets go."
We decided to take the bus to the mechanic's shop.
"Sir your car's ready. You can check it."
"Where is the GPS device that was found in the car?" Kongpob asked.
"Here. We found it at the bottom of the car."
"Thanks. I'll take that." Kongpob grabs the device. "Arthit, I'll make a quick call till you finish things here."
I cleared out the bill and took the car outside the garage. Kongpob was on the phone for sometime till he finally put it down and came inside the car.
"Arthit, I'll give the GPS device to the tech guy as well. He also found the coordinates to your father's phone. He is texting me the exact locations in a while"
Kongpob checks his phone.
"Uh Arthit, your dad's phone pinged around the Hilton a lot, so I am guessing he must be staying there. And his phone also pinged near the Mindcare Psychiatric Hospital for the last three days.
Do you know why he might be going there?"
----
A/N: I hope the chapter wasn't too confusing? The next few chapters will be pretty fast paced. A lot of twist and turns, and finally meeting Arthit's dad again -- who is not ready to back down yet.
I AM VERY EXCITED
