BY CHANCE NOT CHOICE: Marco's Choice - Moretti Brothers Series Book Two by Sage Young Read Free Book Online

falling on deaf ears because Jun was not only lazy; he was a womanizer and never worked for anything.  He always chose to take the easy way out. She and Jun had grown up together and while she fought at every turn to prove herself being a woman in a predominantly Male run culture, Jun chose to live the easy life. 
    “I know what you’re saying is true but it is easier said than done.   Father will disown me if I don’t follow his wishes.” Kiyomi had gone down this road many times before with Jun and she was just too exhausted to continue this conversation.  “Just think about what I said Jun and we can talk later.”     She paused to take a sip of her water.  “But to answer your question from before absolutely not, I will not marry you.”  She took another sip of water and tried to change the subject.  “Now when are you going to start working full time at the office?  I could really use your help in a few upcoming mergers.” 
    She looked at Jun and couldn’t believe how he was turning his back on the family business.  Since they were little she always had to fight for the respect she eventually earned.  When she was in school, she constantly had to prove herself because of who she was and what she was; it was always hard for her.  Finally with the assistance of her father she was able to secure a job at Takahashi Enterprises and while her father hired her at an entry-level position she earned her current position.  Jun had his position handed to him on a silver platter and he refused to work. 
                  She was extremely disappointed in Jun.  He was always at the top of his class and graduated from college with top honors.  She continued to stare at Jun as he rattled on about the latest woman in his life and a trip he was about to take.  He was a very handsome man and extremely intelligent.  He stood five feet ten inches tall and always commanded attention when he walked into a room.  He reminded her of the actor Han Seoul-Oh, but his hair was tapered closely.  She needed to end this dinner.  “I’m really tired and I have an early meeting tomorrow Jun so we will talk later this week,” she said as she stood prompting Jun to stand also. 
    “Okay but call me tomorrow, I need to talk to you about another issue.” 
    “You can always stop by the office and see me,” she said as she kissed him on the cheek and turned to leave.  Jun grabbed her hand. “I don’t like talking there, too many ears and eyes.”  She looked at him knowing exactly what he meant. 
    “Call me and we can meet for lunch.” 
    “Okay I will call you,” Jun said as he released her hand.
     

CHAPTER SIX
    Kiyomi walked out of the restaurant as her security person followed close behind.  Once she arrived home she waited for the love of her life, Takeo.  At the request of her father, he made a final security check every night before going home.  When he first started coming around she hated the invasion of privacy.  Then one night, one of her father’s enemies sent a hit man to Kiyomi’s condominium to send her father a message.  The intruder was able to get into the highly secured building and into her apartment.  She shuttered as she recalled that terrible day. 
    She had come home after an extremely long and tiring day and decided to take a shower, then order something to eat.  She walked into her condominium without turning on the lights in the living room as she headed straight for the bedroom.  Kiyomi walked into her walk-in closet and kicked off her shoes.  She began to unbutton her blouse as she thought about the two horrendous meetings she was going to have to endure tomorrow.  Kiyomi was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn’t see the shadow that passed her closet door.  She unzipped her skirt, stepped out of it, and walked out of the closet with her bra and thong on then walked to the bathroom.  She turned on the shower, looked in the mirror, and noticed a
