As I stepped out of my office, Max followed suit. Ryan's flight had not yet landed, and he was expected to come back to update me on the meetings with the Sonnic and now I couldn't wait to hear from him as mu home was being robbed. I was furious about it all, but there was not much I could do. My safe contains information that no one should know about, and I neeyd to check to see if anything had happened to it.

" I guess I would have to wait for that details later." I mumbled to myself as I came out the door. Just now when there was a piece of good news, Sophie had to ruin it with the talks about the robbery.

Sir" my secretary called out as she stood up to walk towards me with an envelope in her hands. It seemed she wanted to talk to me about something important but I was in a haste to leave.

" Reporter Eddy .........."She said but I didn't let her finish her statement as I continued to walk away. "I would hear all about that later alright.

I watched as the car drove away, leaving behind a trail of dust." What do I do now?" I thought to myself as I looked for a way to get into the house without being noticed. "I hope he is not in." I muttered quietly as I looked around before entering.Knowing I had to have a very good excuse for not being home when I claimed there had been a robbery, I had to make sure no one saw me go in, since I have not been able to come up with a perfect excuse for leaving. I sneaked back in hoping the security wouldn't see me and I rushed back into the house. " Karl" I called out, my heart was thumping so hard it seemed like it might burst out of my chest as I frantically looked around the house for Karl."Thank goodness!!" I remarked with a sigh of relief as I observed Karl had not arrived yet. The universe must have been

Everything that was going on was making my head hurt, and I felt ill. I stared at my reflection on the mirror, tears welled up my eyes. " What would I do?" I questioned myself. This rumor going on about the teacher had I was going to affect my reputation at the school in no small way and I couldn't afford that." How could it be that all of these lies were going on about me at school." I wondered, I was sure Selene had to have a hand in it. It had to be her because I had seen her plot with Xavier. They were close, but today they were unusually up to something and I wondered what it was until now." It's going to be fine." Jason who was my buddy at school said he had followed me when I left the class and he was here trying to reassure me everything was going to be fine."

I mumbled after the car incident, my car had just stopped by the corner we had taken and now we had no help forth coming and my battery had died.When he asked me about the shortcut, I briefly regretted my decision to take it. I guess the plan of the driver to make our trip shorter only complicated things. I sighed heavily and leaned backwards on the car for awhile, before I got out.It seemed like the absolute bad time for all of this to be happening, I needed to get to the house to inspect what was going on, but not I could not because we had no means of leaving this spot and my phone had died. I stepped out of the car to meet with my driver, who was inspecting the engine to see if he could remedy the problem. He was already perspiring as he sought to pinpoint the problem. I hope he was able to fix it so we could get home right away." Are you sure you can fix it." I enquired as I observed what he w

I pondered in my mind as I heard Karl said to the officers as he walked back downstairs." why didn't I think of that, Karl was definitely going to have such things at the house." You must be idiot for not thinking of this." I cursed at myself for not thinking of it sooner and now it seemed like it was already too late. For a man his status why did I not think of the possiblity he had other measures of knowing this things. I let out a deep sigh as I was annoyed by the situation, and everyone turned to looked at me wondering if I was ok." Is something wrong?" Karl enquired as he turned to look at me. I knew I had to say something to mask my dissatisfaction about the cameras or my plan would be discovered. "Emmh, it is nothing serious; it is only that I feel like my head hurts and it is a bit uncomfortable, perhaps it was caused by the hit. I would be fine, I guess." After I answered, Karl came over to look at my

    Chapter 49THE NEW STUDENT.....SELENE'S POVI chuckled loudly as Davis left the classroom; he seemed angered by the rumours and was almost sobbing. I observed tears welling up in his eyes as he spoke to me. "Wow," I said, not believing that he was on the verge of tears because of a simple rumor. Since Davis was usually the hardest of us all, I did not think he could cry too. I believe I have never seen Davis so vulnerable and in such misery before.Observing him in such pain made me incredibly happy. "That serves him right." I mumbled to myself as I watched him leave; it felt good for a while to make Davis suffer as well. He was a bully who did not care about anyone but himself, and he was now being repaid with his own coin." I guess he has learnt his lesson." I murmured to Xavier's ears as I sat beside him.Our approach had worked faster and more effectively than we had expected. I could not disguise my satisfaction at being able to put Davis in his place.For the first time, I was

I was almost got caught but thanks to my acting skills, I was able to hinder the police from getting the evidence they need. As I sat on the couch I wondered in my thoughts about what to do about everything going on. "Hmmmm, that worked!!" I murmured quietly as Karl was helping me take a seat on the sofa. I gasped at him even more, as though I were in so much pain. I had to maintain the charade until I was certain he was convinced and I guess he believed me because he stared at me pitifully as he helped me take a seat. He seemed to feel bad for me having so much pain. I wondered why he was nice to me and concluded that Karl was not all that bad after all. "Thank goodness" I said, letting out a de

I never expected to see her again so soon after our last encounter at the park.Even though she had called me after our chit - chat at the park and we had chatted, I did not expect to see her so soon, and she had not mentioned anything about transferring to my school when we discussed our schools.I was surprised and somewhat excited that she was at my school and even at my class. I was so delighted to see her that I forgot about everything that had transpired earlier in the day. Everything was calm, and I felt a burst of tranquilly and warmth. All of my earlier fury vanished, and for a brief period, all of the rumours were irrelevant.As she introduced herself, I could not suppress m
