AT DONOVAN'S CAR ENTERPRISE.“Where are they?”Alexander groaned, as he paced around in Charles' office.He was meant to be sleeping now but because Charles and Kate needed his help to sneak into Rose's office he was there but the two people in question hadn't arrived.“Be patient, they'll be here soon”, Gracie hissed.“Easy for you to say, I am missing my sleep”, Alexander whined, making Gracie roll her eyes.“How did she get stuck with Alex, and was going to be with him for the whole night, till Charles and Taylor had successfully completed their mission”, she thought, rubbing her forehead”.The door to the office opened and two people stepped in.“Finally you guys are here”, Alexander signed in relief.“Woah! you guys really do look like secret agents going to infiltrate a company”, Alexander exclaimed, staring between the two of them. “If I didn't know better, I would have thought you guys were spies or assassins in your past life”.Charles and Kate looked at each other, both dress
“Taylor, Charles are you in?, I can't see anything”, Alexander asked.“Yes Alex, we're in. Don't worry there are no CCTV cameras in Rose's office, we'll take it from here”, Kate answered.“What a weird lady, who doesn't put CCTV cameras in their office”, Alexander commented.Charles handed Kate a torchlight.“Thanks' “, Kate whispered, taking it from him. Then walked to the bookshelf where she found the blueprints while Charles looked around the office.“Have got them”, Kate said with a triumphant smile, Charles walked over to her.“Great, time for you guys to get out of there…”, Alexander said.“Not yet”, Kate interrupted.“What do you mean not yet!”, Alexander exclaimed.“Why don't we check around, we might find more clues about the accident”, Kate suggested.“But…the longer you guys stay there, the higher the risk of getting got”, Alexander said exasperatedly.“He's got a point”, Gracie said.Kate gave Charles a pleading look, they might not have this opportunity to sneak into Rose
IN CHARLES' OFFICE Charles sat on the sofa while Kate burst out laughing. “What a dumb guard”, she thought. “That was really close”, Gracie stated. “Yeah but thanks to Taylor quick thinking”, Alexander said laughing. “Ghost, who believes in that. Am I right Charles?”, He turned to Charles as the latter gave him a deadly glare making him gulp. “We almost got caught because of you”, Charles said, causing Alexander to shrink in fear. Charles pulled Kate towards him causing her to sit on his lap, his arm around her waist. “Thanks to you we weren't caught”, he added smiling, as Kate smiled back. Alexander stared at the both of them shocked, his eyes literally popping out of their sockets. “How did you know the guard will fall for it?”Charles asked curiously. “Well, he was very scared, so I figured he would believe whatever I say”, Kate answered. “And he did”, Charles said. “Yeah, he did”, Kate nodded, chuckling. She hadn't had this much fun in a very long time. Alexander still
“What happened?”.“Please let's just stay like this for some time”, Charles answered in a low tone.Kate slowly wrapped her arm around Charles, they stayed like that for some time.Charles raised his head cupping Kate's face, while his other hand wrapped around her waist tightly.Kate stared at Charles confused. “Is something wrong?”, she asked in a whisper.Charles stared at her lips, letting out a low groan trying to fight his desire but couldn't. “Can I?”, He whispered, rubbing her lower lip.Kate breathing hitched, she nodded her head slowly.Charles bent down, capturing her lips, kissing her slowly. His arm wrapped around her waist, Kate wrapped her arm around his neck.He kissed her slowly and passionately, like lovers, gently sucking and nibbling on her lips. They parted from the kiss to catch their breath. Charles cupped her chin gazing at her lovingly.“She was beautiful”, he thought to himself, as her sapphire eyes twinkled under the moonlight. He captured her lips once more
IT WAS MONDAY.Rose was driving back to City S. “Back to hell”, she thought with a hiss.Seeking Steve's help proved futile, rather it increased her problem. “Whoever bought Mr George shares didn't want anyone finding out his identity or did he really leave a puzzle for her to solve”, Rose wondered. “Why did the alibi sound oddly familiar?”.Rose shook her head, “she should forget about it, she had more pressing matters to think about”, she thought scrunching her face.IN CITY S, AT FASTTECH LIMITEDRose entered the company with a serious expression on her face, as she headed to the elevator. The workers greeted her with a bow as she passed by, which she totally ignored. Getting into the elevator, pressing the floor to her office. Rose took in deep breaths, preparing herself for what was to come.The elevator stopped, making a ding sound, the doors slid open. Rose walked out, expecting to see Nathaniel with an angry look outside her office but was surprised to find the guard pacing
Stacy had the urge to roll her eyes at her boss' sudden outburst. “The guard had first reported the issue to me, so I had decided to look into it this morning, but he was still adamant on telling you……worst idea”, Stacy continued, saying the last part in a whisper. “And just like he had said, the elevator was working but no one stepped in or out”. “Did you check the CCTV footage well”, Rose emphasized. This was bad, if news got out someone broke into the company. She was doomed, the Old Man would never trust her to leave the company in her hands. Rose cursed, slamming her palm on the desk, causing Stacy to flinch. “No, she had to deal with this matter carefully and make sure no one finds out. First thing first, she had to make sure the guard won't go blabbing about the incident”, she thought. “Yes I did, it didn't look like the scenes were cut or maybe whoever sneaked into the company were good at covering their tracks”, Stacy answered. Rose glared at Stacy, causing the latter to
AT DONOVAN'S CAR ENTERPRISE, IN THE CAVE.Charles, Kate, Gracie and Alexander, stood round a table. They were meant to be discussing their plans on finding out the culprit behind Kate's accident, but it didn't look like anything could be discussed.The air was tense making the atmosphere uncomfortable. Alexander and Gracie, stared between Charles and Kate, the two people who were the cause of it.Kate had an indifferent look on her face, staring at the blueprints while Charles had an icy look on his face, scaring anyone with just a glance.The tense air between them was evident, as neither of them spoke nor glanced at the other. It was like a competition of who could avoid the other the longest.“They were fine the day before, then what happened?”, Gracie and Alexander thought confused, as they both glanced at each other, seeing if one of them had an answer to their unspoken question.Alexander stared at his best friend, he had never seen Charles looking so scary especially when Taylo
“What did Alex tell you?”, Charles asked, irritated.The person burst out laughing seeing as what he heard was true, if not why would his friend get irritated.“Vincy”, Charles growled.“Calm down man, no need to growl at me. I just heard you've finally met your match”, Vincent teased again. Vincent was Charles and Alexander bestfriend, and was popularly called Vincy by his friends. He wasn't in the City, as he had left for a medical programme in the suburbs.Charles didn't like the way his best friend was teasing him. “He was attracted to Taylor and nothing else then why were they making it seem he was head over heels in love with her '', he thought, his forehead creased.“What was her name again….yes Taylor”, Vincent said pretending not to know Kate's name.Charles couldn't help frowning, “how much had Alex told Vincy, to call Taylor's name casually like they were friends”.“So tell me man, is she beautiful with curves. Damn! I'm sure she is, c'mon Charlie tell me, why are you bein
