Chapter Five
Pacing back and forth in the hallway, Catherine couldn't restrain the feeling of anxiousness coursing through her.
Then she finally heard the front door knob turn, and her lips drew upward into a smile as she stared at the door opened.
"Hey, wife." Rome softly said as he walked towards her.
Although Catherine had a stressful matter on her mind to tell him, when he was just a step away from her, she couldn't resist the urge to tiptoe towards his lips and kiss him for a couple of minutes, closing her eyes to let the excitement she felt sink deeper.
Then Catherine finally pulled back, balanced her feet on the tiles, and looked up at him with a hint of annoyance in her eyes.
"What is it?" Rome asked.

After Mr. Orlando had arrived in front of "Darklight cafe," Rome stepped down from the car and headed for the entrance of the building.

"Forget the formality. Curtis will do just fine." "Okay then, Curtis, it's my pleasure bumping into you here." At first, Curtis wore a smile as he nodded slightly, and then he friendly uttered, " A lo

There are many chairs here. Take a seat.""Thank you. But the paperwork is already done. I don't see the need to sit down now." Mr. Aaberg humbly uttered.Lifting his shoulder in a half shrug, Rome said with a deadpan expression, "Okay, if you say so."Confused by how chill Rome looked, Mr. Aaberg felt even more anxious now, not knowing exactly where he stood with Rome."Umm… Mr. Ford," Mr. Aaberg muttered, afraid to make eye contact with Rome.Then he paused and carefully processed his words in his head before asking, "There are no hard feelings between us, r

Keeping silent, Catherine slightly clenched her fist as she stared at her uncles. Then she gazed at her grandfather and asked, "What is the point of this dinner?" "We think your uncles had gotten enough punishment these past months, and it's embarrassing that we have strangers working at the company, but not family." Mr. Barlow calmly uttered. Without looking at Catherine, Madam Barlow sadly sighed and said, "People talk, and your uncles staying away from the company will look bad for our family reputation. I'm sure they have repented for their sins." Pressing her lips together, Catherine frowned as she stared at her uncles and then gazed at her grandfather, realizing that they didn't want her consent but were afraid to enforce their will on her because of Rome.

During their entire conversation, this was the first time Rome noticed an honest expression from Amara, and he was now curious about what the look of anger in her eyes meant. "Is there a problem?" Rome asked, trying to push their conversation further so he can get an idea of who he was dealing with before anything else. "No. It's just frustrating that you are being so technical with me. It makes me feel like you are suspicious of me or something." Amara said, giving a weak smile. There was a brief pause as Rome stared intensely at her, wondering if she just had an innocent face or she was simply good at hiding her actual emotions. Then he tapped the desk and said, "Don't worry. I'm skeptical of everyone, except those that I already trust."
