"Wait, no!"

Alex used his body to block the gate and stopped Shantal and upon seeing it, Shantal's eyes went heavenward.

"Come on, Alex, man up!"

But then just right after Shantal said those words, she smirked.

"Or rather, robot up."

She added and without waiting for Alex's response she started pulling the horse out of the stable.

"But I have never ridden a horse before!"

Alex revealed with wide eyes. He thought that it would convince the other party to change her mind or at least make her think twice. But, Shantal only shrugged her shoulders when she heard that and gave her robot a once over.

"Obviously?! Besides, it was not like I expect you to have tried this before, and I honestly don't see the reason why Alpha Tech would have to spend time making their robots ride a horse before shipment. Don't worry, I got you."

    "Oh man, my necklace. Where is it?"Shantal thought out loud after she let out a deep sigh of exasperation. Because despite their combined effort, her necklace was still nowhere to be seen.While Shantal was wallowing over the loss of her necklace, something glistening within the grass caught Alex's attention.He hurriedly checked what was it and realized that it was actually the necklace. He finally found it but chose to remain silent."I'm pretty sure I lost it while we are doing horseback riding. If only I had not talked so much with you and get distracted."Shantal, on the other hand, added with an obvious tone of lamentation."I told you that I would find it for you, didn't I?""I suggest you start thinking what kind of wish you will be granting me.""Hmmm.

At the same time, her set of orb-like eyes glistened with a nostalgic gleam as she rewound her life clock a tad."Zoren, Jodi, and I grew up together and the three of us used to play here. He was the son of a close family friend and both me and Jodi had a big fat crush on him back when we were a child."The corner of Shantal's lip quirked up a little when she recalled the past."When we went to middle school, Zoren confessed his love to me and since I also liked him, we became childhood sweethearts. But I told him that we have to keep our relationship in secret since I know how Jodi would feel about it."The smile on Shantals' face slowly turned into a bitter one the more she continued her story."But a year after that, my parents and I got into a car accident. They died and I was the only one to survive. Later on, we found out that the accident was orchestrated by a family fri

When he looked at the other party. Jodi only jutted her lips and pointed back at Shantal.He followed it with his gaze and when he realized where the direction she was pointing him at, he saw that their fridge was left open and there were some used bottles that littered the floor below it.In fact, Shantal was actually holding another bottle in her hand.When Alex saw all of that, it was then that realization hit him and he immediately made his way towards Shantal."You already have enough, Shantal.

Is your scalp itchy.""No."The two answered in unison. Jodi on the other hand who was watching all of this farce unfold right before her eyes, could not help but let out a sigh."You sure are made for each other."She said to no one in particular and it was also as seemed she was only talking to herself."Anyway.

After all, the two of them never talked to each other for ages.Jiro used to be a good friend of hers as well.

    "In other words, she wants me to become director and cover up all his shortcomings?"Mr. Takashi insinuated after his contemplation. He did not exactly declined the offer this time, unlike before. Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough.

Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin
