Emir sighed and looked at Brandon.The room where they were in looked full of curiosity as they talked about Elena’s accident.“You were there, did you watch someone had tried to hurt her?”Brandon inhaled. “I am not quite sure. I just saw a driver, he was trying to drive past her…”He paused, stared at Emir Drake. “I have his picture.” He showed his boss, the gadget that he used to take the driver’s picture of the car when Elena got single accident a few days ago.Emir took his gadget and examined the photo of a man, the man appeared big, with some tattoos on his left neck and quite muscular.

Bernard was coming into the room with an office girl bringing them the trays of refreshments. The eyes of Emir and Edward were following the moves of the hands from the young woman of the office department, putting a couple of tea cups with a jug of cream on the table. “Anything else, Mr. Emir?” He asked as he saw Emir looked at Edward in intense stares, frowned with his lips tightly clenched, halted the next conversations, rubbed his nose tip many times. Emir pulled up his coat then he shook his head. “Thank you, Bernard.” He switched his stare from Bernard who standing by him back again to Edward. Edward nodded his head and waited for Bernard with the woman from office department disappeared behind the door. “I don’t have any evil intentions for Elena.

Elena was standing in the porch, looking out and was baffled. ‘What is happening? Why there’s someone following?’ She thought about what had happened that afternoon and went to feel jerky.‘If the paparazzi, I think I am not quite famous enough for being exposed.’ She smirked and sipped the tea Linda made for her. ‘I am not as famous as Emma Smithson.’She checked the gadget and it was a call from her dad.“Everything okay?” Emir opened the call with his eager voice.Elena inhaled and she felt her dad was so cautious. “Yes, nothing to be worried.” She tried to convince with her voice.Emir sighed and sounded so relieved. “Listen, I am going to fly Mediterranean country tonight and I asked Linda to pick up your mother.

She seemed to answer Mom’s question.Mom turned her head around and saw the little dog wiggling her tail. Mom curled her forehead, her eyebrows were raised. “You know their story better than me?”Fortune woofed and looked at Edward.Elena covered her mouth, looked surprised with what a cute creature behaved. “She’s so smart.” She complimented in soft tone. She giggled and watched Fortune woofing at Mom.Edward cleared his throat. “Fortune made me bumped Elena on the way of she’s working. Fortune was hit by a motorcyclist. I rushed to save her, and accidentally spoiled Elena’
Dante was surprised as Mark came to inform about his last finding after tracing Elena for a certain of time, as Dante instructed him.“Elena Rouge is staying in Emir Drake’s house?” He blew out another smokes. His eyes pointed at Mark, shadow of curiosity were sparkling inside his eyes.Mark nodded his head. “Yes, boss.” He rubbed his nose, “She’s been staying there since she got fallen from her motorcycle.”A woman was staring at Dante, “You smoke so much, honey. It endangers the baby I am carrying.”She was the woman, working as a pole dancer at a bar belonged to Curtis Falcon.

“Elena, could you come to my office?” Johnny called her in phone. Elena chewed the bread and put its leftover to Fortune. The dog was with her, running around the patio, enjoying the morning as Elena finished to do her treadmill.“You are still working, aren’t you? Want to do an assignment?” He continued to ask.Elena sighed. “Why you ask me such question?” She rubbed her forehead, “I am still in need of money, boss!”She heard Johnny was giggling.“Isn’t Emir giving you much money?”Elena puffed, “He provides me some grants for my college expenses. He pays me for some works he asked me to do.” She paused, “But I need to make my own money.”She rubbed her nose. “ What time you need to see me?”Johnny paused. Some seconds were running…then, he exhaled. “Lunch time. I have assignment for you. Nice salary, two hundred thousands dollars, excluded bonus. It could be half millions if the client is satisfied.”Elena widened her eyes. “Okay, I’ll see you there, boss.”She closed
Johnny had left the café and let Angelo with Elena were talking to brainstorm the scenario. He would listen to them and they would come to his place to discuss about it as usual.“Are you sure want to take this assignment?” Angelo bit his double burger and chewed it slowly.Elena played the fork and stopped to swirl the spaghetti using it. She looked out and rested her chin on a clenched hand. “Do I have a choice?”She gazed out at Angelo. “Dad hasn’t made any official announcement about me. I don’t want people like Johnny ruin his personal life…you know…those people are nosey and if they smell something odd, they could arrange some scenarios…like what happened to Emma Smithson and Gabrièl. I think it can affect his business…” She sipped her coffee. “I should behave normally as I used to be, I don’t want to provoke their stickybeaks.”Angelo smirked. “Your dad, Emir Drake, is very smooth man. Johnny or Gabrièl Pinot can not harm him.”Elena nodded. “I know.”Angelo wiped his s
“Elena, are you the agent who execute assignment I gave to Johnny?” Gabrièl looked at her and he stopped giving the instructions to his assistant.Johnny was taking a seat next to him. He glanced at her, “A charming woman who refused to become a model, isn’t right, my dear?”Elena smirked and saw Gabrièl was gawking at her. She sniffed, looked away as the man stopped his stare at her triangle body part, between her breasts, waists and hips. The tight old jeans she wore imprint her silhouette plus a fit in leathered jacket Edward gave her. She half zipped in the jacket and the black t-shirt she put on appeared pressed on her chest.“You have a good posture to become a model for women wear. I can hire you and polish you…” Gabrièl looked at her and he rubbed his chin as he made sure about her. “You look like a pearl in my eyes.” He smirked, so captivating but also seductive with the way his hazel eyes stared at her.Elena grinned and crossed her legs. “Thank you but I am not intere
