Director Mile’s jaw dropped and since evidence has been presented, he couldn’t say anything again. Instead, he fixed his eyes on the ground and hung his hands over his back.Director Bryant snickered. “Director Mile, what will happen now?” He raised a question in a mocking tone. “Do you have anything to say? Will you wait for the president to come back, or we will cancel this meeting and let Bastian take care of everything?”Director Mile cleared his throat and loosened his hands from his back. “Umm, hmmm…” he made sounds for a few seconds. He sighed and gave a response. “We will just cancel the meeting and wait for Bastian to sort things out. I hope he can take care of it soon…”Immediately, as Director Mile stopped talking, he stared downward, feeling embarrassed. He accepted Bryant’s defeat and was ashamed to even take a step out of that room and after a minute's thought, he found another fault. He raised his gaze and pointed his finger at Anna, querying, “you… why did you lie to u

Anna boldly nodded, standing on her claim. “Yes, director Bryant. I suspect him.”“But…” Bastian wanted to oppose her, but Ailee chose to interrogate her.“Why do you say so? I mean, what makes him a suspect?” Ailee interrogated.“His reaction,” Anna gave a simple response and further explained. “He is too relaxed for this kind of situation. While everything was going on, he didn’t say anything. He was just observing as if he already knew where the situation was heading to.”“That’s how director Bryant is. He is an introvert and barely utters a word. I’ve never seen him talk back at anyone or raise his voice, and that was the reason everyone was surprised to see him talk to director Mile in that manner.” Ailee explained, defending director Bryant, since she has known him for a while.Bastian nodded in support of everything Ailee said. “Yes, that director Bryant’s nature. He is pretending,” he uttered. “Moreover, can’t you see he was on the same side as us? He disrespected director Mil

“I THINK I HAVE ONE HERE!” A voice came from the entrance and they looked at the door director to see a figure standing, caused a shocked tone to flee their lips.“Hun!”Mrs Chloe, the director of the three stars media company, crossed her legs and relaxed her body on the wall. She raised her right hand and waved it, lightly holding her bag in the left hand, filling her lips with a smile. “Mrs. Chloe, the first female director of the biggest media company in the country, greeting you youngsters…” she let out, twisting her tongue as she paused after every word.She faced Anna and cracked up, elegantly raising her bag for display. “My bag?” She said and covered her mouth with her right hand, beaming. “You like it, don’t you?”“It’s a new design. The latest one. You can’t be familiar with it because there are only three of them in the whole world and I am lucky to be the first of the three luckiest people to get it. You can’t afford it. It is meant for people like me and your president wh

“I received a call from an unknown person…” director Chloe wanted to narrate and interrupted her.Cohen changed his sitting posture, moving his bottom forward a little with his eyes widened in curiosity. “Who?” He threw a question. “Who called you, please?”Director gave him a side but deadly glanced and shook her head in pity. “Fool!” she yelled at him. “Didn’t you hear me say it is an unknown person?”She clicked tongue twice and slightly turned her face to the left, murmuring. “You all are frustrating me. I shouldn’t be sitting here if not because of my daughter-in-law. Only her present appeases me.”“Sorry, ma,” Ailee apologized, indirecting cutting director Chloe off so she wouldn’t drag it further and also nailed the main point she was there. “What did the person say?”Director Chloe beamed and stared at Ailee’s face. “You are the only sensible person here. That is the reasonable question to ask,” she let out. “But I won’t answer that question yet.”Everyone’s eyes enlarged, and

“You should act fast and smart and make sure you cause no delay. This information may be the biggest of the year for any media company that broadcasts it and I can’t imagine losing the prize and honor to another company,” director Chloe pointed out. “If you find a solution within seventy hours, this will be a dead case, but if you can’t, I will be left with no option than to publish the information.”Ailee tightened her lips, nodding, “Okay,” she uttered. She bent her neck, appreciating. “Thanks for your help. This organization will forever remember your kindness.”Director Chloe beamed. “I came here with the intention of helping Patricia, but you make me want to request for my favor to be returned and I want it to be by you. I hope you will do what I want…” she said. She crawled her bottom to the edge of the sofa and lengthened her hand to pick her bag. She opened her bag and took out a flash drive. She stretched out the flash to Ailee. “Take…” she instructed, and Ailee collected it

“Why are you here?!” Cohen exclaimed.Elsie tightened her lips and took a step forward with her right hand on the left, positioning them between her thighs. “I am sorry I showed up unannounced,” she apologized, bending her neck a bit. She raised her head and stood straight on her feet, standing like a criminal in front of a judge. “I have been expecting your feedback and since I didn’t see your call, I decided to come and see what’s happening.”“Everything is fine,” Cohen let out. “You can go back home if you come back with a car or you should wait outside. If you can’t wait, take a cab back. We will talk when I get home.”“But-” Elsie wanted to talk, but knowing she wanted to emphasize on what she said earlier, Cohen cut her off because he didn’t want her to piss Bastian off.“Elsie, please go. We will talk when I get home. Please.” Cohen implored in a commanding tone.Elsie tightened her lips and nodded. “Okay,” she uttered. She knew Cohen didn’t want her to intervene, and since she

Cohen brushed his hand over his face and relaxed his head on the sofa headrest, exhaling softly. “What are we supposed to do now?” He raised a question in a low voice.“Since we are hopeless and have no other way out, will you permit Miss Elsie to intervene now?” Ailee threw a question.The question caught Cohen unaware, and a tone fled his lips. “Hun?!” “We are in a fix now. It’s not proper to overlook anyone’s idea. Give her a chance to speak her mind. Please.” Ailee implored.“I just-” Cohen wanted to state his reason, and knowing what he might say, Bastian interrupted him.“If it’s about me, let her speak. I won’t get mad at her. Not in this kind of situation.”Cohen tightened his lips and nodded his head. “Okay, you can intervene.” He permitted.“Thank you,” Elsie directed her statement to Ailee, slightly curtsying her head. She pointed her phone to Ailee, requesting, “the contact you want to track, can I have it?”“Sure,” Ailee let out. She collected the phone from her and inpu

Elsie paced to the door and as she placed her hand on its handle, she glanced backward and ground her teeth, locking eyes with Cohen. “It’s a fucking mistake to fucking intervene in the first place! I don’t fucking care anymore!”“Fuck you and the fucking mouth you used to say that fucking statement!” She yelled and abruptly opened the door, and as she took her right foot out of the office, Cohen ran to her.He grabbed her hand and breathed out heavily. “I am sorry.” He apologized in a low voice, staring downward in guilt.Elsie turned to him and snickered. “You are sorry?” She repeated, amazed. She flung his hand away, throwing a question. “Which of the problems does your apology solve?”“You talked carelessly and now you are saying sorry? Does that change anything? You expect that to calm me down, right?”Cohen slowly lifted his head until his eyes met hers. “I am sorry.” He said again since he didn’t know any other thing to say.Elsie nodded and licked her lower lips. “It’s not your

-THREE MONTHS LATER-“What are you doing, Cohen?” Patricia challenged as Cohen slowly reversed the car. “Aren’t we going to pick the kid at the school anymore?”“We will.” Cohen answered as he drove into the other lane and headed toward their street.“Then why are you reversing? Why are you heading back home?” She questioned.“I forgot something at home.” Cohen informed.“What did you forget? Hun?” she asked, looking at him with a side of her eyes.“My phone.” Cohen responded.“Why must we go back to pick up your phone? It will take less than an hour to get back home. Can’t you just let’s go?” She queried.“I can’t because I am a business owner. I mustn’t stay away from my phone.” Cohen gave an excuse with his eyes fixed on the road ahead.“It’s the weekend, Cohen. No one will call you today. Stop giving excuses and let’s pick the kids. We shouldn’t keep them waiting for a long time.” Patricia said.“I’m not going because of business, but I need to pay fees before we can take the kids

Cohen discharged a deep breath as he walked out of the bathroom. He paused for a second and rounded his hands over his waist, forgetting what he wanted to do next at that moment.A thought passed through his mind and he wiped his right hand over his face with the left still on the waist.Patricia’s phone rang, and he walked to the cabinet on the bedside and picked it up. “Who could be?” He wondered with his eyes furrowed, confused, and before he could turn to the door, the call ended and a message came into her eyes.Since Patricia’s phone was always unlocked, Cohen saw the message’s content and his eyes enlarged as a surprised tone escaped his mouth. “Hun!”He bit his lower lip and after a few second thought, he reached a conclusion and instantly swiped the message to the left to delete it. He returned the phone to the bed cabinet and rushed out of the room.He arrived in the sitting room and saw his mother watching the TV while Elsie was packing their breakfast out of the kitchen an

“Who is here for me?” Anna threw a question at the security officer escorting her out of the room, showing no interest in meeting the person. The security officer opened the door for her and immediately as she sighted Patricia, she veered around.Patricia quickly stood on her feet. “Is that how to treat a guest?” She threw a question. “Shouldn’t you at least stay to hear why I am here? Your daughter, Rachel, don’t you have any message you want to pass to her?”Patricia’s words made Anna’s feet froze, and she halted for a minute before she slowly veered around and walked to the chair and sat down. “I have no message for Rachel. She doesn’t deserve a mother like me. I don’t worth to be called a mother,” she poured out. “Tell me why you are here. I don’t want to talk with you.”Patricia discharged a deep breath and sighed. She stared at Anna with a pity and despite having a lot of things in her mind, she couldn’t open her mouth to talk at the moment.Anna sighed. “Take your eyes away fro

Anna abruptly opened the door and banged in, panting. “Ma! Ma! Ma!” She shouted, running towards Patricia’s desk.Patricia was shocked, and she couldn’t utter a word. Instead, she widened her eyes and watched Anna arrived in front of her desk before she could pull a word out. “What happened?” She asked, the worried in her voice cooperating with the concern in her voice.Anna breathed heavily as she bent her back and placed her hands on her knees.“What happened?!” Patricia raised her voice. She was getting more scared by Anna’s reaction.Anna panted for another second before she raised her hand and stood straight on her feet. “It’s him…” she uttered, but couldn’t complete her statement.She pointed her thumb at her back, crossing it over her shoulder without looking backward. “It’s him…” she continued, struggling to complete her statement but couldn’t.“It’s who?” Patricia asked, with her lips already quivering. “Calm yourself and talk, Anna. What happened? It’s who? Please, talk. You’

Ailee walked into the office and stood in front of Bastian’s head. She bowed her head, holding a file in her hand. “Good morning, sir,” she greeted, but Bastian, whose head was placed on the desk, didn’t respond to her.“Good morning, sir,” she greeted again, but still no response.She furrowed her face. “What’s wrong with him?” She asked herself in a low voice. She observed him for a second and bent a bit to check if he was sleeping, but his eyes were wide open, making her guess he was just lost in thought.She elevated her shoulder a bit with her mouth shaped to the left a little. “What’s wrong with him?” She asked herself put the file on the desk and let out. “The president said I should give this to you.”She eyed her for another few minutes and turned around to leave, but as she took three steps forward, she halted because she was worried and couldn’t leave Bastian in that situation.“Gosh…” she uttered and discharged a soft breath and, without giving her decision a second thought

Patricia heard a knock on the floor, and she stopped pressing her laptop. She glanced at her wristwatch. “8:05 Am? Who could it be?” She wondered.She stared at the door and raised her voice so it could reach the person. “Come in.” She permitted and immediately continued pressing her laptop.“Good morning, ma.”She heard a familiar voice and instantly raised her gaze. “Cohen?!” she exclaimed with her eyes widened in disbelief, and she couldn’t say another word. Instead, she fixed her eyes on him and watched him stride closer.Cohen arrived in front of his desk and bowed his head. “Good morning, ma,” he greeted. He raised his head and crossed his hand behind him as he stared downward and slightly bent his neck to apologize. “I’m sorry I arrived late,”“I have to drop my mother at the hospital.” He exclaimed.“What are-” Patricia opened her mouth to talk, but Cohen interrupted her.“I’m sorry. I know that’s not an excuse. I shouldn’t involve family matters in business, but I have to sta

“Be careful…” Patricia cautioned Williams, who was already a few steps ahead of her out of the hospital and had been jumping around since the doctor said he was perfectly healthy now. There was no injection for him anymore.“Mom, please call Dad. This call for celebration. I am happy,” Williams let out. He stopped jumping, but couldn’t help pacing fast because he was so excited. He halted and glanced backward at his mother. “And don’t forget to invite Mr. Cohen as well. He needs to be there. I hope he is fine now and will have the strength to come.”“Sure, I will,” she agreed. She took a few steps closer to her and bent in his front. She passed the medicine nylon in her right hand to the left and placed it on Williams’s shoulder. “Williams, I know this won’t sound well with you or you won’t like it, but now that the truth is out and you know who Cohen is, you should change how you address him.”Williams furrowed his face as he raised his shoulder, stretching his hands beside him. “What

-Many weeks later-“Ma, it’s Mrs. Charlotte. She has been waiting for over two hours.” Anna proclaimed immediately as she entered the office. Patricia was working on a file, and Anna’s announcement made her halted. She raised her gaze and looked at Anna’s face. “Why did you keep her waiting?” She questioned. “You should have told her I was in a meeting.”“I did, but she insisted on staying, and Ailee told me to allow her. I even invited her to come into the office to wait for you, but she declined saying she doesn’t worth it.” Anna explained.Patricia sighed and closed the file on her desk. She stood and walked out of her seat, asking, “where is she now?”“At the third floor. She is waiting with others question,” Anna responded. Patricia had already walked to her side, and before she could add another word, Patricia increased her speed and already walked past her.Anna turned around and paced to Patricia with three steps between them. “You can stay. I will go call her.” She offered.
