Chapter 8 James Yu
- Three months later...
- Rohan is in front of Yu’s employees. He is the first quarter’s top awardee because he’s got a couple of clients and is earning decently.
- James approaches him with a smile on his face. “Congratulations, Rudi! You’ve done well.”
- Rohan nods. “Thank you.”
- “You are welcome. I was wondering if you would like to join my team. I am looking for a personal trainer to help me manage the other trainers.”
- Rohan is stunned. This is precisely what he wanted–the opportunity to work under him. That way, his revenge will be easier. “I’m interested.”
- “Great!” James claps his hands together. “You start tomorrow morning.”
- James turns his attention back to the other employee and says, “For anyone who would like to have the same position. Work hard, and I will include you in the team that I am building.”
- The employees cheer. “Now, let’s celebrate!” James shouts. “To a successful first quarter!”
- **************
- The next day, Rohan arrives at the gym early in the morning and sees James standing by the entrance, talking on the phone.
- “Mom, I can handle it. I don’t need a partner!”
- Rohan hides as James turns in his direction. Thankfully, he didn’t spot him.
- “I am building a good team. Yes. They will help me with the competition. I know that it’s national!” He pauses for a while before saying, “I am one of the Twelve Elites too. I can handle it.”
- When James presses the end call, Rohan steps out from behind the corner and waves at James. “Good morning, Mr. Yu,” he greets him politely.
- James turns around and stares at him with a confused look. “You are early.”
- “Yes, sir.”
- “Excited to be part of my new team?”
- “Yes, sir.”
- James looks at him for a moment longer before turning away again. “You had breakfast already?”
- “Not yet, sir. I am too excited and afraid to be late.”
- “Then, come with me. Let’s take a breakfast together.”
- “Ah, no sir, I am completely alright.”
- “Nonsense. Come on now.”
- James waves his hand and gestures for him to follow. He did. They go inside his office, and he points at the counter.
- “Heat a sandwich and brew some coffee,” James orders.
- Rohan readily obeys. Afterward, he places the sandwich and coffee on the table in front of him.
- “Tell me something, Rudi,” he whispers.
- Rohan swallows hard and takes a deep breath. “Yes?”
- “What do you think of me?” James asks.
- The question shocks Rohan. Kyndra mentioned that James likes men, but it is still too fast. “What do you mean, sir?”
- “There is another season of reality TV for sports fanatics. Do you think I can win?”
- Oh! He breathes a sigh of relief, because he plans to have another person to handle and manage James’ sexual desires.
- “I think you can, sir. You just need to train more.”
- “And that will be your job. Have you thought about a new training regimen?”
- “Yes sir, but I am still working on it.”
- “When do you think it will be available?”
- “Next week,” Rohan answers.
- “Great! We will start right after my modeling show ends.”
- Rohan nods. “I’ll be ready.” And so are the next planned events that will destroy James’ life.
