“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
Emma sighed, she put the dish on the table.She had cooked a dinner for him but he said he had some at Emir’s mansion.She crossed her arms and glanced at the table. Two plates of grilled cheese chicken with potatoes and carrots seemed to get colder slowly. It seemed devastating tasteful…She sucked a deep long inhale. Trying to be patient, from Edward’s roasting attitude, she smiled and rubbed her temple.“Why you often visit Emir’s house?”She poured the tea into two different cup and peeked at him.He took one cup and put some brown sugar into his tea.“I know it’s not my business but why you don’t spill a little tea?” She stared at him, ignoring his snuffs before taking a sip of his tea.“I have something to discuss,” Edward wiped his tiring eyes, he glanced at the time on the clock.‘It is one a.m. already.’ He covered his mouth as he yawned, he put down his cup back on the table. He rubbed his lips with left thumb from the tea.“I think I need my sack time…” Edward ros
The silence nearly ate the moment of having tea. As Emir just arrived and wanted to have some tea moments with his daughter alone, when he found Elena and Helen were having chitchat in the patio. He realized she was there, Elena’s mother, Helen Rouge. He knew they both loved to spend time together, mostly after Helen’s return from the senior hospital. The patio was aired by evening breezes. They could watch the flock of birds starting to return back their swarms as the sun went down. “Then, how did you get that ring?” Emir began to crack the ice with some sips of his warm tea. Helen Rouge sighed, pointing her eyes at the pendant of Elena’s necklace. “Jane Dovey gave it to me while she asked me to take care of her daughter. She said there would be a man looking for the ring, someday...Then…” she paused, took a deep inhale before breaking her fear to tell about it. “Let Elena, her daughter comes to her someday, if there’s no man coming to seek for the ring, Elena should not com
“You are going to have dinner with Gabrièl Pinot tonight?” Emir drew a breath and directed his stare at Elena as they finished having tea time in patio. His stare aired the room with some judgmental blowing up about his thought at her, he looked up and down to gaze at the dress she wore. “Linda,” he voiced up, called Linda. Linda came in a hurry, her rushing steps thudded the floor with her heels. “Anything could I do, Mr. Emir?” She was likely assigned to work as Elena’s personal assistant. Emir sighed, looked at Elena and then, returned back at Linda. “Send her to my boutique, ask Carla to make over her for dinner event. She’s going to have a dinner with some people of fashion industry.” He rubbed his forehead and swayed his hand to point at Elena. “She can’t be miserable with that dress to come for dinner.” He sounded anxious as he looked at Linda. The woman was standing next to his chair. “I can’t see that.” He frowned and rose from the seat, walking into the house.
Elena parked the car at the basement. She was waiting for Edward come out from his Maserati car. Just some minutes then, she saw him, bringing with him a leathered case for his gadget. Elena sighed. ‘He looks so fresh and gorgeous.’ She put a strong grip on the car’s steer. Her eyes kept following him from his car to the private accessed elevator. She found a lady opened the elevator door for him. She thought the lady could be Edward’s secretary. The door of elevator began sliding off, she could see Edward give his bag to the lady and he took some files the lady brought for him. They seemed talking to each other, Edward’s face started seriously listening to the lady. She inhaled and grabbed the coffee glass. She took some sips. She got her gadget ringing. ‘Dad is calling…’ she wiped her nose, turned down the volume of the music. “Hey, you have missed up your breakfast.” Dad told her and the sound of clashing of cutlery aired as the background. “I got something to do
Elena came out from the restaurant as she was surprised to see Brandon.He was standing by her car. Elena squeezed her eyes and looked around.He was talking with a police officer. They were examining the car she drove.She scurried her steps to approach.“What happened?” She looked at Brandon and he also stared at her. She assumed the man had followed her to guard her. Dad sent him since she was suspected being followed and stalked by a man for some reasons.‘How come I didn’t sense someone following me while I was following Edward…?! Incredible.’ She was rubbing her head, standing next to him and glaring at the man with curious mind.“We caught somebody was trying to hurt you.” Brandon sighed and replied as he rubbernecked at her. “Are you okay?” He asked curiously and attentively.Elena gasped at him and nodded fast move. “Tell me, what’s going on?”Brandon sighed, he grabbed something from his jacket pocket. He pulled out a small thing and showed it to Elena. It looked l
Elena found her dad was taking a seat behind a set of sofa with soft ivory leathered color. The lightning inside the room came clear but not too bright, with a big screen from each room camera and entrance access next to Emir’s working desk. She was amazed the lightning coming in more natural way, through the open space separate with some big window glasses. There were some lampshades made from wooden materials.Emir was sitting on a swiveled chair and monitoring the big screen. He asked Elena and Brandon to seat themselves on the sofa.“Brandon said you have been stalked.” Emir opened the conversation and made eyes at her. She nodded, rose from the seat. She sneaked behind his chair to take a look at the monitor.She grinned after seeing it. Emir stared at her before he changed his gaze at Brandon.He saw the young man look being mystified. Brandon uncomfortably watched the two of them, he probably thought Emir was talking something private to her. “Thank you, Brandon
Johnny Sly gazed at her.“What you find out?”Elena sighed and looked away. “I think he now is getting closer with a model.”The café they met up in its front patio for enjoying the coffee break was so shady with some interior plants.He stirred up his tea. “Not Emma Smithson?”Elena shook her head. “Nope.”Johnny squinted his eyes as he sipped the drink. She gazed at him and rested her two hands on the table. Her hands were clenched into one as she talked. “Belinda Jay.” “Belinda Jay? Gabrièl’s model?” Elena nodded.Johnny smirked. “Are they working together for promotion?”Their conversation stopped, Elena rose from her seat.“Emma?” she greeted at the young woman walking past her table and Johnny.Emma Smithson put a big smile as she turned around and saw Elena was standing behind.“Elena?” She widened her big eyes. She approached Elena and gave her warm hug.“I just stop by to grab a cup of coffee.”She looked at Johnny. Elena introduced him. “What a coinciden
