Chapter 6
After the funeral was done, the lawyer came over the Yaowapalakul residence.
Lawyer Chai: Good morning Mr. and Mrs. Yaowapalakul.
Win: Good morning Lawyer Chai.
Kwan: Good morning. How are you?
Lawyer Chai: I’m good, thank you. So let’s get straight down to business. (Kwan and Win set on opposite side of the sofas.) I’m about to open the will of Mr. Yaowapalakul. I am Lawyer Chai and I have been the Yaowapalakul’s lawyer for the past 20 years. Today I will reveal the will of Thana Yaowapalakul to his family. (Opens the big yellow envelope.)
July 9th, 2008
When this will is revealed is the day that I am not with my love ones anymore. This will has my last wishes for my family and as well as all of my belongings too. I give everything including the mansion, the company, the estates aboard, the family jewelries, land, and beach house, and all the money in the banks to my one and only son, Win Tawin Yaowapalakul.
(Win was surprised to hear this.)
All of these belongings will belongs and go to my son, Win Tawin on one acceptance that he stayed married with his wife, Kwan Usamanee for a year. If he does not do as follow then the estate in France, the land and houses in Pattaya, half of the money in the banks, and the company will go over to my daughter in law Kwan. Win will only get 30% shared of the Yaowapalakul’s Enterprise. After a year is when Win can divorce Kwan and get the entire company, but the rest of the things mentioned before will still goes to Kwan. I believed that my wishes are to be followed as I have mention.
(Win cannot believe what he just heard. How can his father do this to him, he wonders….)
Lawyer Chai: and this is the end of the will. Any questions?
Win: How is it possible?
Lawyer Chai: Win, these are your father’s last wishes and I’m just a person who tells you the wishes of your father. For that reason, I do not know why these decisions are like this, but I’m sure your father knows what he’s doing. He’s a bright man and I’m sure whatever he had plan in mind is only for you the good you. Your father loves you.
Win: He loves me, that he force me to marry someone that I don’t love and if I don’t obey his command, then I won’t get any belongings when I’m his own son.
Lawyer Chai: I’m sorry Win, but you have to respect your father’s wishes.
(Looked at Kwan with his cold stare. Kwan can feels the chills) Win: Fine, I will do as he wants. )(Turned towards Kwan) and you I don’t know how you brain wash my father that he gave you everything.
Kwan: Win, I didn’t do anything and I know nothing of his decisions also. I’m as surprise as you are.
(He gave a hysterical smile) Win: LIAR! I hate women like you. You are like every other girl that I met, Gold digger! (Win left the room coldly and angry, Kwan sat still on the sofa, not making a gesture or a voice. She sat silently.)
Lawyer Chai: Win is a bit short temper, but all of this is a bit too much for him to take in this short amount of time. I know that there’s a nice person in him somewhere and it will take time. Please give him time. I’m positive that he will come around. He’s had a though life and he’s been through a lot.
Kwan: I’ll try and thanks for everything Lawyer Chai.
Lawyer Chai: Not a problem… oh before I forget Mr. Yaowapalakul has a letter that I’m suppose to give to you. He asked me to give this letter to you after the will is opened.
Kwan: Thank you.
Lawyer Chai: You’re welcome and please feel free to contact me if you need anything. Good Bye.
Kwan: Thanks; I will keep that in mind. Good day to you Lawyer Chai.
Win furious at what his father have done to him. He went in his room and sat on his desk. Kwan took the envelope and opened it.
It reads.
Dear Kwan,
I know that when you’re reading this letter, I am no longer with you in the world anymore. I have so many things that I did not have the time to tell you at all, so I decided to write this letter explaining everything. First of all, I know that it’s really hard on you to do as I wish in marrying my son. I know that my son did not agree on this and same with you. I apologize for this and I’m hoping that one day you can forgive me for this. Another thing is I know that my health is not getting any better. I’ve found out 3 years ago that I have a heart disease. I kept this away from my son and you because I did not want to worry you both. That’s why when you came back to Thailand, I wanted you and Win to get married as soon as possible because I know that my time is running out. I wanted to see my son marry to a woman that I know will change him. Win is a tough person, but I know that his’s coldness was because of me. I isolated him from me and that’s what makes him angry at me. I’m hoping that one day he will forget me, forget his bad father who isolated him at such a young age. I don’t blame him for being angry at me. If I can turn time back and change what I have done, then I would do it, but I cannot. You might be surprise and wonder why I gave you half of the Yaowapalakul’s belongings. I did not give it to you, those things belongs to you. Your parents owned the house in France and the property in Pattaya. Lastly, I know that I should have not force you and Win to get marry. I have seen what he does to you. I felt bad that I let an innocent girl like you getting tortured. I give you my words that you can divorce Win if he does things that hurts you. I know that you’re a smart person and you’ll know what to do. I believe in you. I also ask you to teach Win how to love and open up for others. Be a brave person and I know that you will get through all the obstacles that lie ahead. I wish you the best.
With love,
Mr. Yaowapalakul
