"Where is she?" Noah's exasperated voice resounded through the speaker.Last night Leo got a call from Thomas. At first he was worried sick, but knew that Kiara won't let anything happen to him. She would take care of him and Noah at the same time.However when Thomas called him and stated the warning Noah gave to him, word by word, Leo almost saw his death bed right in front of his eyes. Knowing how easily Noah can easily cross all his limits for Kiara, his anxiousness reached its peak point.He can trust Noah with Kiara, but he can't trust Kiara with Kiara. Not having Kiara in front of his eyes, makes him feel restless.Leo worriedly looked at the entrance of Cathy's penthouse. He called Kiara a few times by now, but got no response in return. Helplessly he answered Noah. "Sir Madam is still inside the apartment.""Why isn't she picking up my call?" He right away asked."She is still sleeping.""This late?""Madam had a few drinks last night.""...""...""Let me know once she wakes
'Ring Ring''Ring Ring'While Kiara was in her bedroom to change clothes, Noah was waiting outside for her. Hearing a different ringtone from his pocket, he took the cellphone out of his pocket. Noticing that the cell phone actually belongs to Kiara, he informed Kiara."Kiara you gotta call." Noah informed loudly and spoke after a knock."Who is it?" Kiara asked back.Noah looked at the screen. Reading the caller I'd named, he got a little confused. But anyway he informed me. "Some, 'Loan Jones'.""Loan Jones? What kind of name is this? Can you take the call?""Hmm." Saying that Noah connected the call. "Hello?" From the other side of the call, Noah heard a man's voice. "...""Hello Kiara?" Carlos spoke again.The moment Noah heard Kiara's name from his mouth, he immediately answered. "Who's this?""As far as I know, this is Kiara's number. Right?""Hmm.""Then where is she?""..."Carlos waited for the answer for a while. "Let her know once she is back that i called. This is Carlos
"Noah, you don't have to pity me, I got Cathy's cards too. You already know that she has a lot of money and she can easily pay for my bills. So don't worry." Saying that Kiara gave a faint smile for his relaxation."Kiara…" Noah apathetically looked at her. "I am not worried about your expenses here. I am bothered because someone else is paying for your bills when it should be… No one else is paying for your bills.""Cathy is not someone else, Noah. She is my friend. More like a sister." Kiara right away corrected his choice of words.Seeing how hurriedly Kiara was ready to protect her friend, Noah envied that feeling. With a pause he solemnly asked his question. "Then what am i to you Kiara?""..." Kiara's lips got shut in a millisecond.Getting no reply, Noah asked again. "Nothing at all?""What do you want, Noah?" Kiara strictly questioned him. With time she knows him very well. Asking her such questions which she can't answer definitely shows that Noah wants something from her.It
"Amm... Except Cathy might be some other guy friend of mine."Noah's hand stopped right around her nape. Grabbing her nape he gently pulled her closer to him. Resting his forehead to hers, he coldly looked at her. "What other guys?"Kiara's eyes widened in surprise. For a second she wanted to get away, but the moment she was touched by his forehead she herself stopped moving. Resting her palm on his chest, Kiara softly asked back. "Noah. Is this how we talk to each other now?""Who are the guys?""Noah-""Kiara.""No one.""Hmm?"Kiara's lower lips plucked out with disappointment. She was expecting him to say something nice and cute, but here she is being forced to say it out the truth instead. "No one except my parents and Cathy."Noah rolled his tongue with his squinted eyes. "Were you playing with me just now?""Kinda… I just wanted to hear something from you."Noah pulled himself a little away from Kiara, which instantly made her feel empty. But before she could react, she felt hi
"By the way, I got something for you to do."While stuffing herself with soup, Kiara mumbled. "What?""I want you to set up a meeting. Me, you and Noah.""!pfffffff!" Kiara spurt out the whole content in her mouth. "Ewww Kiara! When did you become this disgusting?" Cathy made a face."Uhoo uhoo uhoo!" Kiara's cough didn't let her answer. After few seconds she made the call and asked for a maid to come and clean. "You surprised me very well idiot." Kiara retorted as she cleaned her mouth area. "What is there to be surprised about? I already told you about this last night." Cathy said as she poured another bowl of soup for Kiara. "Why do you wanna meet him?""I need to meet this guy. Without my approval I can't let you be in this relationship."Kiara frowned. Placing the bowl on the table, she stood up and walked towards the kitchen while answering Cathy. "First of all, no. You don't need to meet this guy. And second of all, I am not in a relationship with him. So there's nothing to
"Kiara, I love you for this." Cathy said and jumped on Kiara to give her a kiss."Hehehe." Kiara chuckled and got herself away from Cathy's reach. "I know. But this is not the end. Wait and watch. Ria would pay double for what she tried to do against me.""Huh? What do you mean?""I mean what I say. Not everything has been sorted. Few things are still left to take care of.""Like what?""Like things related to my ex fiance. I got to settle my score with them too.""!!!!" Cathy's eyes widened with surprise. Happily clasping her hand she waited for complete disclosure. "Tell me everything.""There is nothing to tell. I just got my hands into some photographs which were taken long before the engagement day. You can guess the rest.""Please tell me that you are disclosing their indecent relationship.""Bingo. Their obscene act would be published by my secretary very soon. Once that is out, everyone's lips would shut, and Ria would lose all her support.""And?""Then according to our contra
"Mr. Jones, how about I send my secretary to attend your secretary regarding this matter? He will take care of everything properly according to your fit." Kiara cautiously suggested the best way she could think of by avoiding any awkward meeting. However Carlos instantly made a denial sound. "In a matter like this, how can anyone trust anyone other than the lender and the borrower? So either you or I don't know what to do next." Carlos said and made an exhaustive sigh sound from his side. Hearing that sigh Kiara got nothing to say. "..." "..." Hearing nothing from his side, Kiara bit her lower lips and said something which sounded way too awkward to her too, but again she wanted to try all the way before reaching that meeting. With a pause she suggested again. "... How about I send the cash?" "You wanna send ****** cash to me? Am I asking for some ransom money here, Miss Walker?" "..." Kiara's lips got shut in an instant. 'Was she too blunt to ask it in that way?' "Amm... loo
“Kiara! Who do you think you are? How could you think of doing this to Ria! Have you forgotten what kind of asset she is to Walker entertainment! Have you forgotten that she is your sister, our shareholder, and my fiance! How could you think of doing this to Ria! Do you even realize what our company is gonna face because of your stubborn behavior? ….” “...” “Are you even listening to me Kiara! Answer me damn it!” Max shouted at the top of his lungs. However in return, Kiara just gave him a faint smile of recognition. “Kiara you better don’t believe that you will be out of this matter this easily. I won’t let you go if I face any single scratch on me. I won’t forgive you and that is something I can promise you! You heard me!” This time it was hard for Leo to not roll his eyes on Max’s words. A junkie, futile person like Max dared to point his finger at their madam. How it can not be absurd to him and to the other guards around him. Max only needs to take the first step against Kiar
