The Woman Of THREE CROWN PRINCES
THE GEISHA AND MOMIJI DREAM PART 20. Champagne Tower 2's
"Actually what are we going to do Auntie?"
"Mr Yamada wants to ask you for help."
"Soliciting help?"
"You'll find out later, it's not a hard thing and the pay is very good." I'm now pounding erratically. The sound of the door being slid open shocked me when several people entered.
Mrs Siguira himself was present. With Mr. Yamada, Hisao, a man I don't know who. Me and Aunt bowed in their respects.
"Setsuko-san, good to see you again." Mr. Yamada smiled at me. "Sorry to call you like this, but this time I want to ask you for help personally."
"Sir Yamada, what help could I possibly give." This has something to do with Hisao?! What else did he do this time he bought another champagne tower so I had to go slap Aoki?!
"Look. Hisao will soon enter the family core business. But I really hate .. champagne tower. And I need someone who can stand by him so that it doesn't happen again."
What does this mean! My ears are wide open now.
"Mr Hiroda this is the family lawyer, he'll explain to you." Mr. Yamada switched the conversation.
"Mr Yamada agreed to pay the 'champagne tower" to Okiya Setsuko-san, of which 25%, belonged to Miss Setsuko, and the others were arranged for a deal fee, part for the task of becoming a companion to Mr. Hisao, the president said, in official or unofficial events. And paid Miss Setsuko's income for the full 8 hours if she was in charge of accompanying Mr. Hisao out of Tokyo." My eyes are rounded. Champagne Tower! Assiten personal escort!
"Setsuko-san forgive me, I will speak somewhat frankly so that you understand, what I mean is that this is not a transaction involving you having to sleep with Mr. Hisao, your duty is only to accompany Mr. Hisao, he said, you're free to refuse Mr. Hisao's disrespectful request and report to Mr. Yamada that you don't see Aoki Roppongi in your duties, or if he's there you should report him to Mr. Yamada." I saw Hisao who was silent. It seems he has no choice.
"In other words, Setsuko-san works for me, not for Hisao." Mr. Yamada added clearly.
"Mr Yamada, what if your grandson intends to eliminate me." Mr. Yamada now laughed loudly at my blatant question. I heard terrible things about the Yamada family. They seem to be involved with the Yakuza.
"Report to me, I will eliminate him with my own hands from the family line of leadership. He accepted this arrangement. Setsuko-san, I believe you have heard that champagne tower, I built my family and company with sweat and blood through the war, fell awake, I was very angry with that word... For me the art workers at Gion who work and study hard traditional art for the tourism image of this country are millions of times more commendable than those women. I'm now asking you personally to accept this task." He bowed to me. Oh gosh. How could I let this old grandpa bow to me. I bowed back to him.
"Sir Yamada, you left me with no choice."
"Then Miss Setsuko accepts this task."
"I accept it." Now Mr. Yamada smiled and laughed.
"You never let me down Setsuko-san. Thank you for helping." His grandfather was now dealing with Hisao. "Hisao, Setsuko is your co-worker, one word she says bad about you, or you do something disrespectful to her so she reports to me. You'll learn your lesson."
"I understand." Hisao had no choice. Like I can't refuse this request.
Why would he drag me into this mess.
