"Mr. Silver?" Arabella stood up from her chair, looking confused as she was baffled about what someone like Leonardo Silver is doing in this cafe and also his behaviour towards her. "What exactly are you trying to do, Mr. Silver?"

Leonardo handed Arabella's laptop to his assistant. "Check this out," he ordered with a sigh. His assistant quickly took the laptop from him and started checking along with the team, while Arabella looked even more puzzled by his atrocity. Leonardo crossed his arms finally concentrating on Arabella, "Ms. Arabella, COO of Starlight Jewels, before I handle things in my way for what you've done, why don't you confess the truth yourself?

    Arabella stepped hard on the brakes, bringing the car to a sudden stop being surprised by Zara's question.
