“Who is important I meet?” Mila threw a question.“The chief security guard,” Ailee let out. She bent to the left a bit and crossed her hand over her chest, saying, “I am not sure, but something seems off about the department.”Mila bent her neck to the left, and with her eyes furrowed, she took a step forward. “What do you mean?” “It’s your job. I think you should interrogate them,” Ailee suggested. “The chief security isn’t around, but I ordered his deputy to call him earlier. You should meet with either of them before going.”Mila nodded in acceptance. “Yes,” she agreed, adding, “I asked Mr. Bastian earlier for the entrance CCTV footage and he explained it wasn’t working when the incident happened.”“Yes, I was there when the deputy chief security said that. Though his expression was genuine, I still have doubts. I hope you will investigate.” Ailee spoke out.Mila beamed, impressed. “With you beside Mr. Bastian, now I know, while he has always been the world best,” she disclosed.

“If you dare disrespect her, you will see the other side of me you can’t withstand.” Bastian threatened.Mr. Thompson quickly bowed his head. “I am sorry, sir.” He uttered in a panic. Bastian had always been respected by them, so he was shocked to see him react because of Ailee.“You don’t owe me this,” Bastian rejected his apology. He pointed to Ailee, saying, “you owe her so you should pay it to her. You are to apologize to her, not me.”“Hun!” Mr. Thompson exclaimed. He lifted his head and glanced backward at Ailee before he looked at Bastian’s face, expecting he would revert his order.It wasn’t the first time Mr. Thompson would show his hatred for Ailee, but Bastian had never intervened because Ailee didn’t want her to, but the only thing he never expected was Bastian to give such a rude order. “I should apologize to Ailee?”Bastian put his hand into his pockets and nodded. “Yes, you must. Except you want to lose your job,” he let out. “And even if your job isn’t important to you

“Can we trust their words?” Mila threw a question.“No, we can’t and I have a doubt this isn't a coincidence,” Ailee split out. “But they sound genuine and have excuses for their acts which make them less suspicious.”“What do you think we should do next?” Mila said, and without giving Ailee a space to respond, she added. “Maybe I should check the footage to see if I will find a clue. I believe we will find something unless it is hacked.”Ailee nodded in support. “Yes, you should. Do that first and any other step you think is right will follow,” she suggested. “Based on how I see things, this is a planned operation. Whoever is behind it has been planning it for a long time.”“Yes,” Mila agreed. “I even suspect this won’t be the first time such a person will be involved in a crime. He or she must be a mastermind criminal.”“Also, I think there is an informant among us…” Ailee made a point and Mila interrupted.“Yes. Isn’t that why I am here in the first place?” Mila said in a questioni

“This is all we need, sir.” Anna said, looking at Bastian’s face.“Which information does the picture and video contain?” Bastian asked.Anna put down the phone and took a step forward. “Vera, you know her, right?” She flung a question.Bastian frowned his face unclear. “Vera?” He repeated, trying to remember a staff member bearing that name.Ailee was familiar with all the staff members, so she instantly knew who Anna was talking about. “The model, right?” She asked.Anna nodded. “Yes, it’s her.” She confirmed.Ailee faced Bastian and explained. “It’s the lady on the second floor, who the president appointed as the face of the organization. The company's new model.” “Oh, okay,” Bastian nodded, comprehending. He glimpsed at Anna, asking, “so, what’s with her? How is she involved in this?”“Ailee, you know how photogenic Vera is, right?” Anna directed a question to Ailee.Ailee nodded. “Yes. Isn’t that the main reason she was appointed as the model?” She let out. “She is beautiful and

Ailee stepped out of the elevator and immediately as she raised her gaze, her eyes caught a glimpse of Vera chatting with her colleagues with her front teeth out.Ailee discharged a soft breath and paced closer, and with a few steps remaining to get closer to them, she called, “Vera.”Vera and her colleagues gazed in Ailee’s direction. “Ailee,” Vera called. She glanced at her colleagues with her lips filled with a smile. “They need the goddess of beauty. I will be back,”She took a few steps away from them and glanced backward, winking her eyes. “You can’t understand the feeling,”She arrived at Ailee’s front and raised her chin, crossing her hands over her chest. “I know what you want, but I can't do it…”Ailee cracked up. “What do you think I want from you?” She raised a question.“Hun!” Vera toned, amazed. She lowered her chin and loosened her hands from her chest. “Aren’t you here to convince me to work for someone else?”Without giving Ailee a space to further, she proceeded, “I

“My password!” Vera exclaimed.Ailee nodded. “Yes,” she confirmed, assuring, “trade it for your secret and I guarantee it will be safe forever.”“What do you need my password for?” Vera queried.“Anna saw something on it and I want to confirm whether or not it is true.” Ailee explained.“What is that? Hun? Ailee, are you trying to play smart? What are you scheming?” Vera questioned.“Vera, be rest assured, everything is fine. All I need is a picture and video on your phone. The picture you took outside yesterday. There’s something in the background. That's all.” Ailee assured.“I don’t believe you, Ailee. How can I believe what you said when it’s obvious you are lying?” Vera doubt.Ailee sighed and licked her lips. “Okay. It’s fine then,” she said and veered around, adding, “since you don’t want to cooperate, I will show this to the president and let her take judgement into her hands,”“But remember, Vera, prevention is better than cure.” She uttered. She glanced backwards and winked

“How’s it?!”“Do you get it?!”“Did she give it to you?!”“What did she say?!”Bastian, Anna and Mila nervously stood on their feet and stormed Ailee with questions immediately as she stepped into the office.Ailee halted and cast her face downward, wearing a disappointed facial expression.“What happened, Ailee? Didn’t she give it to you?” Bastian threw a question, taking a step closer to Ailee. “Ailee, please talk. You are scaring me.”Anna paced faster and walked past Bastian. She arrived at Ailee’s front and placed her hand on her shoulder. “Talk, Ailee. Didn’t the contract clause work out?” She implored, but Ailee still said nothing; she didn’t even raise her gaze to look at her.Bastian got more worried and scared and instantly rushed to meet Ailee. He stared into her eyes with a concerned expression. “Please talk. Just tell us what happened? Did Vera give it to you or not? Please talk.”“Or did anything else happen? Just talk, Ailee.” Mila intervened, walking closer to them.Ai

Mila drove the car into the station. She parked in the wrong lane and rushed down in a hurry, and immediately as she raised her gaze, she sighted Michael, a junior colleague, coming out of the station.“It’s good you are here,” she whispered, and without locking the car, she paced closer to him, speedily ascending the small three stairs, and immediately as she got closer to him, she threw the key at him. “My car. Park it well and bring the key to my office.” She commanded without pausing or looking at the guy’s face.“Oh! Oh!” Michael exclaimed, struggling to grab the key in the air. His hand touched it, but it slipped from his palm and fell on the ground.“Fuck!” He uttered. He glanced backward, staring at Mila’s backside with anger. “She is so authoritative.” He whispered. He sighed and rounded his hands on his waist. “I get no option,”He clicked tongue and bent to pick the key. “I have to do this. Shit!” He screamed and walked to the parking lot.★★“Where is Jamie?” Mila threw

-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.

“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.
