SHANTAL's P o V

~~~

"Please sit. Ms. Smith."

I tried my her best to look friendly and greeted Ms. Smith with a smile as soon as she arrived. However, instead of being welcoming, everything about me looked so fake and forced.

I was also well aware of how my smile must have looked so stiff which did not come as a surprise to me anymore since I had never smiled to anyone before other than in front of Alex.

"No, it is fine, Ms. Nordstorme."

Ms. Smith on the other hand refused my offer kindly.

"You don't have to stand so far away from me though?"

I insinuated when she noticed that  the other party seemed to feel so awkward around me.

"I am totally fine Ms. Nordstorme. I prefer it this way."

Ms. Smith responded with a simpered smile.

"Oh? Okay, you prefer it that way."

I muttered under her breathe then I nodded my head slowly to show my und

    SMITH's P o V~~~"First of all, I hoped by now, you already know that I trust and believe you."Out of nowhere, Ms. Nordstorme told me something and I would be lying if I would say that her trust did not mean a thing to me. I actually appreciate how she was putting her trust on me. But I just wished she did not because it was making me guilty. I am not perfect. I was just about to say something when she decided to speak again."That was why I delegated you the task of searching for our old driver. I needed to get answers from my past."Indeed, there was no way she would let me do this job if she did not have enough trust on me. I just wished I would not end up disappointing her."Regarding this person named Amelito Almiro, we are still in the middle of trying to locate him. Bu

    AUTHOR's P o V~~~Mathilde was at the back seat while she let her secretary drove the car for her."We will be there soon."She said on the phone as she was in a call at that moment."We are still charging him, We will start packing when you arrived."Mathilde heard the other party said from the other end of the line and this voice actually belonged to Harold. Mathilde hung up the call after that and as soon as she hung up, a smirk broke from her lips.Meanwhile, on the receiving end of the call, as soon as the madam ended the call, Harold dropped his shoulders at the side. He was wearing a down casted expression on his face and his colleagues also sported the same gloomy face."1096, you will soon go to a nice place."Rico told the robot as he forced himself to smile and not cry in front of him."Yes, of cou

Today is a great day and nothing could make me change my mind because today would be the mark of my approaching success as well. I was getting nearer at my end goal and I could already see myself laughing at my CEO chair within the Nordstorme Corp.I get ready as soon as I wake up. I am simply excited to see this state of the art robot. He would be my key to success and so of course what else should I do but waste no time. I gathered my own team of tech savies and with my secretary as the driver, we all made our way to the Alpha Tech team.While we were on our way to their place, I decided to drop them a call at the last minute to inform them that I am planning to conduct a surprise ocular."We will be there soon."I said as

    1096's P o V~~~I noticed how their expression turned sullen as soon as Harold was done talking to someone over the phone. But I did not point that out. I have my own concern. It has been a while now since I was fixed but no one was sending me yet back at Shantal.I was busy observing everyone when all of a sudden, Rico approached me. I could tell base from his expression, that he was trying so hard to fight back his tears. I wondered though what made him so sad."1096, you will soon go to a nice place."He told me as he flashed me a smile. However, with an advance intelligence like mine, I could tell that his smile was not real base on the muscle movement around his facial tissue as well as the amount of energy he exerted just to sport that smiling face. Besides, a simpered smile only required six muscles to move; which was relatively less compared to a real smile b

    HAROLD's P o V~~~As soon as I was done talking to Mathilde over the phone, I looked around me. Everyone's enery was done today.Mostly because we were guilt ridden. It pained us to send 1096 to a place where he would certainly not be receiving any form love. There was no way that a company who wished to extort money out of our robot would show it affection. But no one could bring themselves to break the news at 1096. We could tell him that we were sending him off someplace where he would not be appreciated and loved.It was Rico who first approached the robot, all the while holding back his tears."1096, you will soon go to a nice place."He said to which 1096 replied with a matter of fact tone."Yes, of course. I will return to my girl friend's house and watch over her day in day out. That sure is a nice place to go.""No. You will meet a new master and find new happiness there."

What a beautiful work of science."I could not help but get awed by the sight of the finest robot ever created. I walked towards this artificial human and the more I stared at him, the more fascinated I became. No wonder, my daughter used to love this kind of product. They were truly a sight to behold"Watashitachiha ko.no wakai otoko to kare ga tsukutta subete no gijutsu o bunkai shimashita."I talked using a foreign language because the expert team that I gathered were from a different nationality. But I was surprised that even though I purposely spoke to my team using a different language, someone from the other team was still able to understand what I just said and this

She allowed herself to process everything that happened to her and it was then that realization dawned at her.She fell in love with Alex thinking that the other party was a robot. But she used to be someone who would go after her brain's decision rather than what her heart wants, so she tried to fight the feeling. Mostly because she did not think it was right but in the end, her heart still won over her rationality.She accepted her new reality that she was in love with a robot without knowing that Alex was only an avatar and was just a human substitute to the robot boyfriend she purchased online. Harold's team conned her into believing that she was living with a robot and then swapped with a real one without her even not

    "What brought you here?"Albeit startled by Shantal's sudden arrival, Alex was still able to bring himself to smile and greet the other party. Apparently, Shantal came barging at Harold's place, uninvited. But it was like the other party had not noticed Alex at all. Shantal headed straight to the show room where the robots were displayed without paying Alex any heed at all."Where is 1096?"She asked Harold directly and when the other party did not give her an answer right away, her voice raised an octave highter."I said where is he?!""Shantal calmed down."Alex tried to appease Shantal because he was afraid that the other party would start going hysterical. However, Shantal just pushed his hand away. Shantal wanted answers and that was what she would get."You were just a few minutes late. The head of the Ironscrapes personally came here to take him. We meant to send him to her place, anyway, so when she t

    "Gosh it's good."Harold said when he got to taste how refreshing the drink was. 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. Michael, I need you to go to Casterly."

He believed that if only he was not asleep that time, then maybe Jodi would also consider dating him.On the other hand, Rico seemed to be out of it and oblivious of him."Lover."The other party mumbled to himself as he observed the tarot card in his hand.'"I did not know this will happen. I feel so lonely."Michael muttered to himself out of despondency and while he was in the middle of self pity. Someone walked into the room.They though the one arrived was some random girl who was in full glam and obviously had just gone to salon for her touch up when it decided to have some coffee."Wow! I told her she would be pretty."

    "That robot was sometimes human and sometimes a robot for me and that was why others who can't understand my situation mistakes me as someone who hallucinates and believe a robot as a human just because I am treating it just like one. But for my opinion, my situation was no different from those who loves their pets so much, they even considered them as their child and called themselves as furparents.""My emotions were input into that robot and that person. That is how this miracle happened. That fact completely changed the way I view things. This will be yet another scoop for the reporters present. Nordstorme Corp will go from financing mergers and acquisitions to investing in futuristic industries that involved human sensibilities. Just like what Alpha Tec Inc pioneered years ago.""This is your first change in business strategy in 15 years. Do you have anything mapped out?"One of the reporters raised a question just like what a normal press conference should

Which happened to coincide to the time when Shantal will hold her press conference.Moreover, since Mathilde would not be able to make it there since she was still held in prison, her secretary presided the meeting."We shall begin the emergency board meeting."Secretary Ye declared loudly and her voice reverberated in the room. Jiro was also there along with other board members."The agenda is the dismissal of Director Shantal Nordstorme and the cause is as you were all informed. An illness."She continued while everyone was silent and anxiously prayed so they could ever this meeting once and for all.

    It was late in the evening when Jodi received a call out from nowhere. When she checked that registered on the caller ID, she was surprised to see Jiro's name.Truth be told, he was the least person he would expect to contact her. 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

    "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. He will just come back. We must make sure he loses the will to come back."Out of nowhere, Mr. Takashi declared with conviction and for a second, the secretary was taken aback by this.One moment, he almost drove her a

    "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

Thank you for the information."I replied and not long after that, she hung up on her because I reckoned that it would be best if I could relay this news to the other search parties. 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. However, to my dismay, I was only redirected to the voice call feature of the phone.'The number you have dialed is busy at the moment. Please try your call later or leave a message aft
