"It's nice to see you so focused on work".a female voice says as she step in an office staring a man with a face of an ethereal god who was working.

"Am I the type to be unfocused to you maryl?".he said with his deep voice as he glanced at the female.

"You know that's not what I meant?".maryl said."these days you are always focusing on something else so..". maryl didn't finish her sentence but her point had been made.

The male stared at maryl for a few seconds before he spoke."you must have nothing to do right?".

"Oh save me the glare nolan".maryl scoffed."don't use your business tone on me.you know I won't fall for that".

"What are you doing here in my office?". nolan asked staring at the female.

"Is it so wrong to go visit my brother when I miss him?".maryl questioned."is it such a bad thing to do?".

"Just because you are my sister doesn't mean that you can barge in to my office anytime you feel like". nolan said."for whatever reasons you have".

"So?".maryl looked at her brother thinking he was too unreasonable."Am I gonna receive a death sentence for visiting my brother.besides what does visiting my brother has to do with you?".

"I am busy maryl I don't have time for your silly jokes".nolan said."just say whatever it is you have come to say".

"I am bored".maryl suddenly said as she stared at her with a smirk.

"What?".nolan couldn't believe hie ears.he wondered on how to get rid of the female who was smirking at him.

"I said am bored".maryl said glad at the reaction she was already receiving,she wondered how her brother would react after he hears what she was going to say next."so i went to see her".she said as watched the male carefully for his reaction.she was also eager to hear what he would say.

The big reaction that maryl was waiting for never came neither did she receive the words she was waiting to hear instead she heard her name called.

"Maryl". nolan called lowly with a warning tone.he was warning her to be careful of her actions.

"Turns out that I was right dear brother".maryl said."you have just been caught by your little sister".

Nolan glared at his sister in anger at her actions."maryl".

"Relax dear brother".maryl said clearly amused."I only took a peek at her.i didn't even speak to her".

"Why were you there in the first place?".

"Because I was curious".maryl answered."I saw your assistant acting so sneaky once so I followed him.i thought that maybe he was colluding with an enemy of yours at first but then I saw him entering into a company watching a woman".

"Trust me when I say it was hilarious".maryl laughed."I thought he was having a crush because of how he was acting but then I found out that it wasn't him but his boss that was having a crush".maryl laughed again.

Nolan who was watching the female was getting annoyed."What's so funny?". irritated,damian asked.

"Anyways I took a closer look since I didn't believe that you could have a crush on someone else.that's when I realized that it wasn't someone else". maryl said turning serious."when were you going to tell us that you already found her?".

"It's no one's business but mine". nolan said harshly.

"Mom and dad are still searching for her!".maryl yelled."we considered her our family and she truly was part of us so it's our business too".the playful girl from earlier was gone as maryl stared at her brother."I understand that you want to protect her but at least you could have said something so our parents wouldn't continue searching for her". 

"Go home maryl".nolan said with a sigh."I have nothing to say to you".

Maryl didn't want to leave just like that so she tried to speak."nol-".

"Go home!".nolan said rudely cutting her off."am done talking to you".

Maryl gave one last glance at her brother before she stood up and walked away.

Erica still couldn't see who the male was talking to but she knew it was a woman from the voice.

'Alright if you say so'
