However, as soon as I received the other party helped me with the tray, I saw at the corner of my eyes how Sam's eyes went heavenward and not long after that I noticed that the tray on  her hand was also about to fall tipping on side.

The five of us shared the same table and a hearty meal together. At the same time, watching from the smile that was pasted on Shantal's face I could see that she was just as delighted as I am that we will be sharing the same meal. I may have tried to avoid letting my real emotion show on my face, but I am looking forward to taste the food that was prepared by Shantal. Not only was it personally made by Shantal, it was also made more special because we prepared these foods together by working in the same kitchen."There. We should eat as well."I heard Shantal said it and not long after than a platter of garlic butter shrimp as well as other seafood mixes was served right before us. I could no

Those strangers would not know how lucky they were to be able to taste it without actually trying."I know that Jodi was trying to praise me and to be honest, I appreciate it. But of course, I don't want it to show in my face so I acted like I was nonchalant after hearing her comment. However, when I saw Alex finally taking a bite from the food I gave him, I hurriedly turned to him. I waited in anticipation for his reaction but he was keeping a straight face as he chewed his food thoroughly. In the end, I succumb to my curiosity and unable to hold back myself, I asked him."Do you like it?"I was kind of nervous when I asked him that question. But when I got an affirmative response from him in return, I could not get happier."It is very good!"If only ears

Shantal, on the other hand, quickly shook her head and instead started sharing the her thoughts"No. But the thing is that, I suddenly recall how I used to wonder how Alex would feel if he could try my cooking."Shantal simpered a smile as she said that, but its warmth did not even reach her eyes ."I thought this must be how he would feel."She added using a despondent tone and everyone could not help but fell silent after they got to hear what was running inside Shantal's head at that moment. Alex on the other hand, tried to hide his discomfort by pretending to be in the middle

When he looked at the other two guys, he saw them gesturing to their head but he did not give them much attention."Yes.Sam repeated the same thing with a voice and face devoid of emotion."Something needs fixing."Harold told Sam afterward and so Sam fought back to urge to do and eye roll before replying flatly to him."Okay."This time, Harold noticed that Rico and Michael still keep on doing the same thing so he asked them instead,"What? 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. Just like how she and Shantal were cousins, Jiro and and Zorens were first cousins too so naturally all four of them get to know each other and as a child, they eventually became acquaintances in no time.Besides, since Zoren's parents were a family friend of the Nordstorme they often had an opportunity to hang around during their childhood.However, ever since the day Zoren committed suicide due to the incident regarding the Nordstorme controversy, Jiro also stopped communicating with them.So this made Jodi wonder what had come to Jiro to decide and phone her at this time of the night.But

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. He will just come back.

    "You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. 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

In this way they would also know where to start looking. Of course, the first one that I tried to call was my lady boss.
