《The Typhoon’s Wife》The Typhoon's Wife

"Neil..go have a drink at the bar downstairs." Ryu was aware that time was of essence.If they had to finalize this scheme they had to do it today itself.The court summons were for Monday so they had only tomorrow to make their engagement official.Also,there was Ru to consider.And there were some discussions he didn't need his brother to be a part of..
"But..I am not thirsty....ok ok I am very thirsty and only beer can quench my thirst..please excuse me..I'll be back soon.."
As soon as Neil was out of the door,Ryu's entire persona underwent a change.Gone was the genial and amused brother and in his place was a cold man of business,"Miss Lou let me get straight to the point, you and I have both been divorced once so I can understand your reluctance to get into a short term marriage.However ,I need to protect what is mine so I will not get into a marriage without a prenuptial agreement.If you have any objections to that then we can stop wasting our time."
Ryu's words and unblinking stare almost made Al lose her courage to lay the conditions she had thought carefully over.
"Mr Long,a pre nuptial agreement will protect not just you but me also..so I have no objections to it.What I do have are a few conditions.These are conditions that are non negotiable so you have to choose if you want to go ahead with this plan or not.I know you must have had me investigated so I hope that you will understand the reasons for my conditionsI have 2 conditions which need to be formally written in the agreement and 2 conditions that I need your verbal agreement on."

Al then took out a sheet of paper with her conditions and passed it ovsr to Ryu..
Ryu was enraged.Yes he had done an investigation on her but he had not read the report.He knew that the dossier that Neil had sent to him was Neil's way of asking him to not read that report.And so he had not.He thoroughly regretted heeding to that request.But as he read the conditions he felt a sliver of respect for this woman..Though she claimed that these conditions were to protect herself they also were a form of protection for Ru..and nowhere did it mention any monetary gains for herself...
He took his time staring at the paper on front of him,making Al a nervous wreck.She really wanted him to agree because she had already set her heart on becoming Ru's mother...

Primacy Online
Life on Earth was nearly eradicated in World War III, but using alien technology, the Patriarch of the Church of the Resurrection built a new society from the ashes. He created what he called the Constructed Reality MMORPG, Primacy Online, a world so real that the players could not distinguish it from reality. After outlawing wars between the city-states on Earth, he declared that all wars would be fought inside the world of Primacy Online. Thirteen hundred years later, the release of Primacy Online VI: Legacy of Balor signals the beginning of World War IX. Players from Earth's city-states will be locked in cryogenic capsules and play Primacy Online in War Mode. Their achievements in the game will determine the victory rankings of their city-states, but if they die in the game, they will die for real. Patrick Armagh found flaws in the game mechanics of Primacy Online and exploited them to rise to the peak of the game. But when the Church declared he was cheating, he was perma-banned from the game. Now, the Church has declared that Patrick and all the other perma-banned cheaters will be included in a special Church group for World War IX, where they can earn redemption for their sin of cheating. However, Morgan Danan, Speaker of the City of Mann, and the generally acknowledged number one player of Primacy Online, has a deal for Patrick. With her help and his method of cheating, he has the chance to become a virtual god within Primacy Online, but by taking up her offer, he will become an enemy of the Church. Like a significant percentage of Primacy Online players, Patrick suffers from an ultimately fatal, degenerative nervous system disorder. He has less than five years to live. With death staring him in the face and nothing to live for, he accepts Morgan Danan's offer, and once again, enters Primacy Online as Crom Cruach, a disgraced legend. Will Crom Cruach, once again, become a legend, or will he be destroyed by the Church? What secrets has the Church hidden inside the game?
