The morning the office bustles with activity, Dianne finds herself alone in the lift with Nicolas. Both had been hiding their feelings, unsure of how to navigate the tricky air of office romance. As the lift doors closed, they nervously exchanged glances."Good morning, Mr. Nicolas," Dianne greeted him, her voice trembling slightly."Good morning, Dianne," Nicolas replies, with a hint of warmth in his eyes. "I hope you're ready for a busy day."Dianne smiled, a greeting and a stolen opportunity were enough to get her heart racing for the man. "As always, sir. I'll make sure everything goes smoothly."Even though it was just the two of them in the lift, they still spoke like a CEO with his secretary. Formal and polite.The lift jerked to a stop between floors, leaving them trapped in a confined space. Panic washed over Dianne's face, but Nicolas remained calm, with a mischievous glint in his eyes."Oh my! What's going on?" Dianne was startled while maintaining her balance."It looks li
"Keenan?"Between relief and shock, Dianne and Nicolas spontaneously moved their bodies away as soon as the door was opened. It turned out to be Keenan Marteen.The pair quickly familiarised themselves even though it was too late. They were sure Keenan had seen what they had just done. But, what the hell, Nicolas was sure Keenan would understand even though this was beyond their professional demeanor. As for Dianne, the girl is very scared right now. This is the first time Keenan has caught her and Nicolas as lovers.As soon as she got a glare from Keenan, there was only one thing on Dianne's mind at the moment. Go and avoid that man for as long as possible. Because Dianne was sure that after this Keenan would demand a long explanation to her.-o0O0o-As Keenan was walking down the corridor to Nicolas' office, he heard a faint sound from behind a closed door. Out of curiosity, he approached the door and put his ear to the door. How surprised he was to hear the clear sound of two peopl
Nicolas received a message from Detective Arron that the man had found some suspicious alibi evidence from some people Nicolas knew. Therefore, Nicolas asked Detective Arron to come again to his house to submit a direct and more detailed report. Detective Arron is a detective that Nicolas hired to help him investigate.Nicolas is Detective Arron's client. Detective Arron is a private detective that Nicolas rent. Nicolas is the CEO.Nicolas has a client who has been framed by someone, so he decided to check some alibi evidence of those people. After discovering that the alibi evidence was fake, he realized that he must find the real culprit that terrorized him.He knew that it was a matter of urgency to find the culprit. He has a sharp mind, a strong sense of responsibility, and a strong sense of justice.Nicolas wanted to check all the alibi evidence for himself, but he had no time to do so. His company is in danger, and so do himself, and he was on his way to find out who was trying
"Keenan is the perfect suspect. I found out that his departure to France was later than the schedule set by the company," Detective Arron told Nicolas (CEO).The two of them were still sitting on the first floor of Nicolas' luxurious penthouse."What do you mean, it's ridiculous that Keenan is the suspect!" Nicolas frowned, the man who had been the CEO for many years seemed very surprised that Keenan was included in the list of suspects."Perhaps you have seen your company's activity report, that at the time you received the terror while giving the speech that made you calm down in the villa, you had a business trip to France scheduled and Keenan was the one who replaced you," Detective Arron explained what he knew."That's right, I did read it in the company's daily report," nodded Nicolas of course he didn't remember that moment because his memory in the last few years still hadn't returned. But the man had no idea what the connection between Keenan's business trip and the accident
"First of all, do you know Nicolas Gauthier? The CEO of Buenos Solar Company."Detective Arron frowned briefly upon hearing the question. He was very surprised that the FBI was suddenly asking him about his client.Seeing Arron's confused face made Ressler smile a little, it seemed that the man already knew even if Arron hadn't answered him. "You must know him, right?" said the man.Inevitably, Arron nodded. "Yes, I know him professionally." He hesitated, not entirely sure how much he should reveal to these FBI agents, for whatever reason.But if they were looking for clues, he thought it would be best to be honest. "He was my client. I am currently handling a case of his attempted murder."Ressler smiled again at the explanation from the man who had undergone the same military training as him some twelve years ago. "So, did you find any clues?" he asked.Hearing that made Arron wrinkle his nose, he wondered even more why these people seemed to want to make him vocalize something abou
Nicolas sighed and placed his coffee cup on the wooden surface of his desk. "You want me to tell you what happened?"Detective Arron nodded his head. "Yes, it will help us to put it together. We need all the pieces before we can go any further in solving this case. Besides, once the FBI arrives, we'll have to be thorough and follow up on every angle. Especially since we don't know what they're looking for.""If you say so," Nicolas said hesitantly. "So, first of all, I arrived at his house. My colleague, Lieutenant Gwen Miller, drove me there. When I knocked on the front door, Keenan himself opened the door, but he said he didn't see anyone.""What did he say?" Detective Arron pressed."Not much. Just that someone came to visit him today.""Did she say who?""No, but judging by the way she acted and reacted to my questions, I assumed that it was an outsider. According to her, no one has visited her in recent times.""How many visitors came earlier? Was it more than one person?""It co
"I thought you were going to take me home," said Nicolas after he had climbed into the passenger seat of the car parked in front of the office. "Aren't you forgetting something?"Ressler turned towards him and smiled. "Not a thing." A second later, however, he realized that he hadn't answered the question and cleared his throat slightly. "Well, actually, there is something I forgot to do," he confessed.Nicolas raised his eyebrows and waited for his explanation."It's more complicated than I expected, and there's still a lot I don't know, but..." Ressler looked thoughtful for a brief moment before continuing. "I want to talk to you about my mother.""My mother? What about her?""Why did she suddenly decide to move?"Nicolas shook his head. "I don't know. I'm sorry. She never mentioned to me that she wanted to leave.""Did she ever say anything about wanting to visit you or asking you questions about what had happened that day when you came home to find your mother dead?""I don't reme
Dianne left for the office with Nicolas this morning, but as usual the girl got off at the bus stop near the office building because she didn't want anyone to see her and Nicolas the CEO together on a morning like this. She didn't know why people thought it was so scandalous, but she'd been working at the company since last year, and had never been more than a few minutes in private with the man before. He worked closely with his employees but always kept to himself. The only person who ever really saw him around was one of the managers, a middle aged woman named Annabelle. Everyone else seemed just fine not seeing him. Even though he was usually surrounded by a small retinue of assistants. But today, even Annabelle seemed to be avoiding him - well, not avoiding him exactly… Dianne wasn't sure what she meant exactly. But Dianne knew that they had avoided each other. It made her nervous because of how she felt about it all and yet, if Annabelle was uncomfortable then maybe Nic would no
