Bite my tongue, she like him more when he is not with her. Bite my tongue, you can waste your time on anyone, she didn't think twice to refuse that, because he are only for her. Jane didn't waste, but he who wasted her, and don't Hold my breath, walking on broken glass with every step. You may not remember me but I know who's next. Because you lead me, you lead me Gary…"—Gary, I know you remember the day I spoke to you for the last time..." Gary opened his eyes when he heard Jane said little louder as she is trying to sit up with Gary furrow his brow approaching her to help her... Jane suddenly looked at Gary in shock as he spoke spontaneously"Hate me if you want." He repeated that line slowly when helping Jane leaning again the headboard, long ago, the same words as the night Jane teased him about his proposal, before Gary pampering her with warm touch and kisses here and there "—But you have no excuse." He finished without realizing it made Jane smile sadly. Gary who accidentally
There had been no time to sort out her emotions when she had understood the far-reaching consequences of his words, She knew damn well why she had been feeling guilty whenever he had crossed her mind as Gary looked at her again with looked all casually and easy make Jane was confused as if he could read Jane's mind but she's starting to get a little angry because of what happened with Lily last night,"How-, How could that be..." Jane stuttered before licking her lips as quickly as Gary's eyes turned to think of something different because of what this woman was doing."I don't know..." he drawn speak slowly when his mind was taken over by the thought of this woman as his gaze flickered over her, Jane on the other hand was still serious about her question while Gary—"Gary!" she hissed in annoyance as she found Gary focused on her lips "I'm deadly serious, how did you meet her last night!" she asked with emphasis but not in a loud voice only making Gary leaned closer when their gaze l
The tongue may hide the truth, but the eyes never because it's hard to be honest with others when you keep lying to yourself and Riri knows enough that her uncle isn't one to hide things from her easily, maybe... but earlier at the garden she had different thoughts about this…Riri headed to the door to bring drinks for them. Riri heard whispers from her uncle from the room. They had been talking together for a long time, and Riri knew that her uncle wasn't much of a talker when he was with people he just met but from his uncle's gaze in the garden before she knew that there was something between them, she deliberately walked in front of Lily, who hoped that nothing awkward would happen between her uncle and Lily's mother, because she knew very well what her uncle was doing and she actually didn’t want to know about what people adult doing. But she admitted that she had never seen her uncle act as dreamy as someone with memory loss, behind her Lily walked carefully carrying a glass of
"But it's too late—" he reasoned. Gary's thoughts are mixed when on the other hand he wants to give Jane time, but refusing her heart is not good because it is true that she actually wants to stay longer... You are always my main focus, you are always the person I look up to even from a distance… "That's why you have to stay Gary, after all I invited Riri here, how bad it would be that I didn't give you menus before you went home, besides everything is ready downstairs... it's a bad thing to waste food right mommy..." Lily explained with shining brown eyes then staring at her mother with pleas to help her hold them from not going home just like that, Jane raised her eyebrows then looked at Gary with an awkward smile focused. "Yes, Mr. Pinault, why don't you stay a while for dinner..." Jane said casually after a minute consider with an approving look that made Gary's nervousness disappear. Staring at Lily and her niece finally he sighed while nodding "Sure, why not..." he sighs as Ri
Everything Jane does is a matter of heart, body and soul. For Jane, designing is an expression of who I am as a woman, with all my complexities, feelings and emotions. but thingking about it right now he can't take it anymore... why did he appear, why is he still alive, Jane still hasn't found out about it, does she have to find someone to spy on Gary digging his background, his life history, everything... she too could get Andrew to do that but she was too scared to know the truth, how that he really wasn't Lily's father that he was someone else, that he wasn't someone she knew, the man she only thought was true man in this world... how can be is so real, yes ... she had to listen to Lily's heart about a father figure, but that would also be even more strange because Lily knew that she didn't want a man who replaced her father figure for Lily when Jane found out that Gary had left them forever, she give up by throwing away the pen the one she was holding before Jane leaned back in th
That morning Lily arrived at school. Riri who saw her from afar as she got out of her car quickly approached her and noticed someone closely trying to block her making Lily groan..."Come on she's my best friend don't try to keep her away from me" Lily sneer tried to explain to her new bodyguard that her mother had hired, which must have been the one her mother had promised because of what happened that day.Riri nodded while glaring at him before pulling Lily's arm tightly away from entering the school gate "His face puts me in a bad mood," Riri said indifferently, not failing to make Lily chuckle before sighing."I can't refuse my mother's request because of what happened that day" She mumbled disappointed when Riri felt guilty but Lily quickly realized her words "calm down... I only think of him as my shadow" she muttered without being able to make Riri protest because just at that time, the school bell sounds startle them…All the students settled in their seats and the lesson wen
Love is a tendency towards something that benefits. If the tendency is deep and strong, then it is called longing. Whereas on the contrary, hate is a tendency to avoid. When that tendency deepens and strengthens, then it's called grudges.... no not grudges but this is what Gary calls Mainfields... he just wants to avoid the dark side of people because remembering his past work his previous job was enough but he's too immune, so just let him do all this... ugh he doesn't know anymore, all he can think about is protecting her for now… Like he wish for."—see I told them you would react this way, this is why I tried to say no!""Oh, I'm sorry," Gary argued when he stared deadly "I'm sorry I'm not the welcoming committee you expect, but I mean come on Eli, you let me in the auction to be the man everyone wants, instead of keeping this company is enough for me. You know, how do you expect to break the news to me, I would rather travel out of town, but you know I can't because of how much I

Jane changed into her thin black lace pajamas with see-through and went about her nightly routine, replaying that night's events in her mind. After they returned to the table, Richard continued to explain, taking every opportunity to point out similarities and common interests between Herself until Jane could barely speak to one another; Richard had said all there was to them. while Jane is tempted to look at her past lover, but forces herself to be a good poker face, relaxing and sipping her wine. There would be time to think about Richard later.She was beginning to suspect Marisa had been talking more to Richard in her absence too, because by the time they all said goodbye it was clear he had the impression it was indeed a date, no joke. he. She pulled him aside and told him in a charming tone how wonderful it was to meet her, and would hope to see her again sometime, to talk business, or…. Jane groaned closing her eyes, for in her memories of being with Richard distracted by the i
Luckily, the orchestra chose that moment to finish the song and the couple in the ballroom stopped dancing, applauding their final performance.She took that as an excuse and checked the watch on his wrist watch “Oh, I didn't notice the time. It's very late," she said to him, "I have an early meeting tomorrow, with your team"Richard looked surprised and disappointed but just nodded at her. She knew it was a lousy excuse and probably one of the worst performances of her life, and they returned to their table again when they wanted to finish the bill."You understand that I invited you to dinner just to not piss me off, right?" he said.Jane laughed at him gently, "Yeah, that's pretty obvious.""So officially, I still owe you another dinner," he smiled, after he waved and silently asked the waiter for the bill, "But we can make it dinner in Chicago if you want," he said as casually as he could and waited for her to answer.Before she could say anything, the waitress returned with the b
He chuckled but pretended to look offended, “Of course! In fact, I am a great dancer. I'm the grandson of the British Ambassador, remember? I started taking ballroom dancing classes at the age of four, just in case Queen Elizabeth stopped by New York,” he said as she joined in on the laughs, irony isn't it? and she'd be dealing with politically strong, it was too complicated Jane thought"—Oh wait. I understand. It's a car thing, right? You don't think people who own automotive companies can dance," he continued the conversation, following another song.More like a robot linker and an airplane, Jane's mind thought with a smile.Out of the corner of her eye she saw a pregnant girl in her twenties dancing with a friend of Richard's who she knew was in his late fifties and her smile faded. She asked herself again, for the thousandth time, how a man could do such a stupid thing.Richard noticed the change in her mood and followed her gaze, “It's Hiko Yamato and his wife. You've probably s
-0-0—YESTERDAY“-uhm, and why do you like roses?” Jane tried to break Richard’s gaze too fixated on her“Well, it’s different with you I guess I should explain first—” Jane smirked as Richard teased her before he continued “Apparently my father is an American businessman who grew up in Europe and my mother is British,” he began after tasting the wine, “They have nothing in common, just the fact that they’re both fresh. Students from the same university in France. My father is a student engineer and my mother studied Literature. Dad loves numbers, and mom loves words. Dad is brown hair, and mom is blonde. Dad is friendly and talkative, mom is shy and introspective—” Jane laughed looking at him“and it’s very specific The other way around” Jane laughed making Richard smile happily“In every way imaginable,” he nodded, “They met at one of those student meet and greets once. “He said he was instantly smitten by her, while mom wasn’t impressed with him at all,” he laughed, “Instead of givi
“I thought you want to help me?” Gary said speaking up. “You said you need me for a mission to get all this started so what do we have to do?” She wasn’t surprised Gary was the first one to ask that question. He had the most experience working with the CIA after all.“It will actually be two missions,” Sia said turning back to the image. “This place belongs to you leader of one of the stronger factions but you hold on it is gonna through black mail and you are assisted in this by your father whom I believe you are familiar with.” An image of his father appeared on Gary mind.“Yes me is leading a Fashion businessman?” Gary said clearly shocked. “I mean I know he’s ruthless enough but I didn’t think anyone would follow him.” She could understand their disbelief but one Gary know the whole picture of his father done then he migh be understand. “He has control over the Command system ship through it’s Dark control systems,” Sia said bringing up the image. “He has allied with his brothe
She glanced at Gary and looked uncomfortable with what he was about to ask her and she did her best to look supportive when his eyes found hers. “I know you would prefer to take some time to deal with leaving your home world again but we don’t have time,” Gary finally said. “We have an important matter to discuss, if you’d tell them what you asked me to do.”She took a breath as She look at him again “Some time ago I asked myself to consider putting myself in contention for this Mission alone.” She could see the understanding look on Gary face. “I agreed to consider it and discuss it with the rest of the truth but when Chief mantion you it kind makes me challenge Doing my job”“This is why you not stepped down to this mission isn’t it?” Gary asked looking at Sia. “You’ve agreed to go along with this mission idea of you take me in to this?” Sia nodded and Gary glanced over at his other side. “You knew about me accidently?”“Only after Chief be seen supporting you behind” Sia said afte
The silent level in the cafe was deafening; so much for the belief that a meeting of the him was always conducted in a decorous fashion, hah. Sia exchanged glances with hm. Of the people present on CIA, she is must to meet him, and here she is. And the only two who weren’t currently expressing their opinions at the top of their lungsDespite the seriousness of the situation, Sia had to stifle a grin as Gary rolled his eyes and whispered, “Now I know why Captain has resisted being promoted for so long!”“I certainly would go insane if I had to deal with you on a regular basis,” Gary agreed. She looked around at the room; to her left. At her immediate left, before She was glad she couldn’t make out more than a few distinct phrases from that particular ‘conversation.’“Gives you a greater appreciation for how tough it is to be CIA agent,” Gary said. “It’s not just I’m who’s unhappy, though I think most of the others were all right until this brought up the plans for the colony.” He shift
“Although their motives appear to be pure,” Gary said with only a trace of irony disappointed in his voice, “but why my dad assets been included to them?!”Sia nods when sigh “That’s why we’ve decided that it would not be prudent to have you going back this job. I’m sending a second ship with you-the Odyssey.” Sia pause considering “but I do want to help you” Gary closed his eyes grunts in annoyed This was exactly what he didn’t want to know about his dad done or his assets... even the Dark Auction wasn’t any worse“Who will be in command of the selection of this mission?” Gary asked slowly“I am but you will be in charge of the overall mission if you join me,” Sia said immediately, answering his unspoken question. “Captain Effic La Farley will be in command to help in France. He’s an excellent officer. Although he’s never held a field command before, he’s headed up a variety of research teams, plus garnered immeasurable experience serving on senior staff for nearly fifteen years befo
“Do they have any other purpose other than making a living for their group?” he asked after awhile “After much effort and time I don’t think so but if the Federation cooperates in their business I’m not so sure” Sia said it made sense because people need dark political funds “There aren’t many easy worlds for illicit or unclaimed business that fit in, especially in that area,” Sia said leaning forward in her chair. Suddenly she had an insight. “Do you think there are the size of the hands of the higher ups in France?” she remembered how the Humans there offered arrivals a chance to settle down if they had sufficient funds. And this must be how the new ship got involved. The more she thought about it now, the more sense it made. Gary’s eyes met hers. “Ahh I think that’s how They claims her Retail is easy since Ms. Arnault’s father is from and settled in France.” Gary sat back, stunned. Many images and memories of his time in France – with Jane, for what they thought would
