Daniel Brooke’s expression turned gloomy while looking at her leaving figure. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth in anger. He then stood up abruptly and left the cafe.
On the other side, when Lisa came out of the cafe, she received a call from Carl Black. A small smile appeared on her face involuntarily the moment she saw his name on the screen.
She answered the call quickly, "Hello."
"Are you not done yet? I am waiting for you for a long time outside the gate." His cold deep voice came out from the other end of the phone.
She gasped in surprise.
Why did he come to school? She already told him, no need to come to pick her up.
Daniel Brooke looked at their departing figures, and his expression turned sinister. He took out his phone and dialed a number. He commanded fiercely as soon as the call connected, "I need detailed information about Carl Black. His daily routine, his friends, enemies, every single detail. I need it as soon as possible." He hung up the call soon after saying this, without waiting for the response from the other end of the phone. He looked at them again. He saw them getting in the car and driving away. He stood there for a long time, looking in the direction from where they just disappeared from his sight, before leaving from there. Inside the car, Carl Black's expression was cold. His full concentration was on driving. He even didn't glance at her. The awkward silence inside the car was oppressive, and Lisa was feeling very uncomf
It was half-past 10 at night. Daniel Brooke was working in his study room. But his concentration was not in the work. He was flipping the pages of a file one after another. After continuously flipping for some time, he got so irritated that he swept all the files from the table. All the papers scattered instantly on the floor. The scene of Lisa walking away from him, holding Carl Black's hand was vivid in his mind. He ran his fingers through his hair with frustration. In the meantime, his phone rang. He answered the call immediately, "Hello." "Boss, I have all the information about Mr. Carl Black." Someone spoke from the other end of the phone. "Speak." "He is a pretty good professor almost without any flaws. He is famous in his college for his r
Daniel Brooke was working at his office with Henry August. At that time, he received a call from a familiar number. He quickly answered the call, "Hello." But his expression immediately changed when he heard something from the other end. He was so angry that he threw his phone on the wall hard and cursed loudly, “Fuck.” The phone broke into pieces instantly. Henry August was dumbfounded. He wanted to ask but when he saw his Boss’s raging eyes, he swallowed all the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He didn't know whether he should stay or leave. Just as he was in dilemma, he heard his Boss’s angry roar, "Leave." He quickly got up from the chair and walked out.
Carl Black brought Lisa to the cafe near her school where she used to meet Daniel Brooke. He intentionally brought her to this cafe. He wanted to see the place where she met her ex-boyfriend regularly, and he also wanted to replace the memory of Daniel Brooke in her mind. He ordered Latte for both of them, and it was served quickly. Lisa was not happy when she came to this cafe. There were so many memories of this place. She spent two years of her life with Daniel Brooke. When she entered here, every moment she spent in this place with him came alive in her mind. She didn't want to remember those moments. There were mixed feelings in her heart. She couldn't restrain herself from asking, "Why did you bring me here? There are so many cafes in this city. We can go to any of them." Carl
There were a few open books lying on the table. Carl Black was busy reading those books and making notes in his study. It seemed that he was lost in the world of books. In the meantime, his phone rang. But he was so engrossed in his work that he didn't look at the caller ID when he answered the call, "Hello." There was a silence on the other end for a few moments. He didn't care about it and kept the phone on the table without disconnecting it. He started working again as if nothing had happened. He even didn't glance at the phone. Several minutes later, the phone again rang. This time he didn't pick up the phone. The phone kept ringing until the end of the ringtone and finally stopped. A few minutes later, the phone rang again. This time also he did the same thing. He answered the call without looking at it, "Hello."  
At the end of the day, Lisa's mood was lightened a little. She was about to go back home, but her steps froze when she heard Anna Green calling her from behind. She turned back and saw her approaching her, "What happened to you today? You were so busy that you didn't even come for lunch. I came to call you but when I saw you busy, I left. I thought you will come later." Since morning, Lisa was so upset that she buried her head with her work to avoid the discomfort in her heart. She lost her appetite and didn’t go for lunch. Lisa felt even more uncomfortable to face her inquisitive gaze. She didn't want to tell her what happened between Carl Black and her. She opened her mouth to say something, but before that Anna Green started saying, "Let's go to the cafe. We will sit there and chat, OK?"
At night, Carl Black dialed Lisa's number. The call was connected after a few rings, "Are you free now?" "Hmm... Have you eaten dinner?" "Yes. What about you?" "Yes. Are you still angry with me?" There was a short pause. Then he heard her say, "No, I was worried about you. Take care of yourself. Don't go jogging alone, don't go outside often. Be careful while going and coming back from college. You need to...." "Lisa, I am fine. Don't worry." He interrupted her. He went silent for a few seconds and then continued, "Are you free tomorrow?" "Why?" "I want to spend time with you."
20 minutes ago Jasmine Brown was sipping wine while waiting for Daniel Brooke who went to the restroom. Meanwhile, she received a call from an unknown number. After looking at the screen for some time, she finally answered the call, "Hello." She heard a deep male voice from the other end of the phone, "Hello, Miss Brown. I am Henry. Is Boss with you? I can't reach his number. Can I talk to him?" She laughed softly and replied, "Oh Henry, is that you? Yeah, Daniel has gone to the restroom. I will tell him to call you back." "Thank you, Miss Brown. Sorry to disturb you." The call ended with that. She waited for another 10 minutes but still, he didn't get back. She decided to go
