"It is Selena. She does not know the actual truth about this company." Asriel answered pocketing his hands. Asaiah's face became pale. He was just as startled as he was worried.
"Asriel, how could you be so careless?" Asaiah exclaimed. Asriel pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. "You know that those staffers are not allowed to go above the ninth floor. The only accessible place for them on the tenth floor is Ataliah's office and they only go there on their first day!"
"Please stop shouting." Asriel said looking around as if someone might just walk in on them arguing. Asaiah waved his hand dismissively.
"Calm down brother. After all everyone on this floor is already familiar with our situation." Asaiah said sarcastically. The glare he had

Everyone's desks were there and it was usually in a bustle. She looked around until she saw her desk right next Darral's desk.

The GHB was modified to_ ah.»Just what had she really gotten herself into?"The only explanation I have is that the drug was modified to enhance its effects probably a hundred fold." Sera said as if reading Selena's mind. "But the technology needed to do such a thing has not been created yet. Also, a huge scientific team has to assembled in order to actually have a breakthrough as large as this. Also, where on earth would such research be hidden and for what?""What

"No." Asriel stated firmly without looking up at Selena. He had the annoying habit of not giving her or anyone else his full attention. The only one who was ever able to grab all of his attention was Asaiah– and that was probably because he had to keep an eye on him.It had been a week since Selena started working with Asriel but all he ever let her do was sort out files and recite to him his schedule. Such was an obstacle in her investigation. Maybe if she had more access to his life then she would perhaps gather a little more information about him and his connection with the case."Sir," Selena said as she sat down in front of him on the guest chair. He still had his eyes on the laptop and it was starting to annoy her more than it usually did."With all due respect, I am tired of you only giving me these tiny tasks that you probably used to do yourself before you got yourself a new assistant.

The clock on her table showed that it was eleven PM."Come in." Selena called while rubbing her sleepy eyes and yawning. The door burst open and Tracy danced in right after.

For the third consecutive night, Asriel woke up feeling cold and sweating at the same time. He was breathing heavily as if he been running in his sleep. He glanced at the digital wall clock on top of his door and realised that he had only slept for about an hour."Damn it!" He said as he slowly got out of his bed. He hated over working himself but he hated sleeping more, especially if it meant that he had to deal with the same nightmares over and over again. He walked out to the balcony and stood at the edge while staring off into space.He sighed, suddenly regretting the fact that he had skipped another therapy session with Emmanuel. Most of the time, Emmanuel would call him and find out why he skipped a session or just force him to come all together but not that time. Asriel was not even sure if he was relieved or worried.

"Will that be all?" The waiter asked Selena and Gina as he finished writing down what Gina had just ordered. "Yes, that will be all. Thank you." Gina said smiling while Selena just nodded. The waiter bowed his head. "Very well then." He turned to leave but stopped and stared at the flowers in the vases that were on each side of the door as if he had seen something displeasing.

Asriel stretched his arms and back as he walked down the stairs of the house to the living-room.

She could feel her nervousness increasing ever so slightly with every step.“Just a heads up for you.” Asaiah whispered to her. “I have never attended any event with a partner before so these people are definitely going to follow you around now and then.”“What?” Selena said surprised. “Just for being your partner?”Asaiah chuckled and nodded. Selena sighed when she remembered that the Parkers were famous people. Living with them and seeing them a lot just made it slip her mind. What also slipped her mind was the fact that Asaiah was not the type to stick to one woman and he probably chose not to go with part

Selena was thankful that Asriel had not given much thought to how and why she had gotten to work so early in the morning. She ran to the car park and got into the passenger seat of a car and strapped herself in. “Follow that car.” She said to Darral who just to happened to be the driver. “I missed you too Selena.” Darral said with a fake frown. Selena put on her seatbelt and threw a sharp glare at him. Just who id he think he was to start messing around when they had an important task to do? Darral smiled teasingly as he started the engine immediately pulled out of the parking lot and got on the road. Staying four to three cars behind Asriel’s car, they followed him until he stopped in front of Plato’s restaurant. “Could he be stopping for a meal this early?” Darral asked. &n
