“ARE you alright, young master Cedric?”

“I-I am! Of course, I am!”

Cedric replied arrogantly. A bit irritated by his butler’s sudden question. Addressing him as the young master and only heir of the family from his mother's side.

“Just what comes into your mind for asking such a foolish thing?”

“I apologize young master. It is just you have been waiting back and forth for quite some time now.”

“I—”

Taken aback and flustered after immediately realizing what he’s been doing. He remains to keep his head high, proud, and still an arrogant heir and sits back down on the bench. Inside the Academy’s garden. With his suspension still in effect, but is allowed to at least visit the school to meet someone.

“I see that you could not wait to see the little Miss Monique.”

“To see her? Just what are you talking about!”

He flat-out denies it and quickly. A bit raising his voice, but his face clearly said the opposite of what he just did.

“I see, I apologize young master.”

The butler calmly consoles

    “YOU need to know something, Miss Wayne.” Trouble and more than that, Cath seriously took it from Cedric. That though it is coming from a child, that certain child is someone who helps them, and greatly so far. “What is it, Cedric?”“Last night, my father came to my mother’s maiden residence. He insists to be faced by his mom which mom ended up complying with. After apologizing and begging mom, he ends up dragged away by the guards. But I followed him and happen to hear him talking with his mistress.”Cath clench her hands tight into a fist. Taking a deep breath, but didn’t express anything of some sort of expression or unnecessary thing in front of the children. All knowing that Cedric is pointing out Beatrice. “DAMN! I already tried but it all ends in vain! That stupid woman wouldn’t accept my apology and even listen to what I have to say!”Cedric felt the fear and chill that quickly creeps down his spine. Almost gasping and covering his mouth with his hands from the curses and a

    “THIS is a bug.”Hiro drops the device on to the table and in front of Beatrice. Looking at her with hostility and the mind that will not hesitate to end her life then and there with his own hands.“A type of bug that spies, aka high-class detectives are using. You do know what does it means, right, Beatrice?”He threatens her to the very core. Which made Beatrice shaken and felt the grim reaper knocking on her door. Yet she calms herself, shows nothing of any expression to her face and still acting like her usual self.“Are you perhaps in some kind of trouble from the authorities Beatrice? No, from a detective perhaps?”Hiro’s menacing glare, warning her to only say nothing but the truth. For any wrong move, hesitation in her voice and an unappropriated word, a bullet will land directly in the middle of her forehead. No questions ask. “A detective?”She smiles, playing it all cool, but already have an idea who could it be.“You do know that the very first thing that the organization

What?”She thinks about it and deep. Checking the checklist inside her mind and all confident that she didn’t miss anything and not a bit at all. “Are you somehow talking about our safety? Didn’t we talk about it and the bodyguards are all up and even more than prepared a day ago?”Her thoughts run, a bit dismay and irritated by Sam’s acts. Not to mention it is not a time to be mysterious in any sort of way especially since there are things that are much more important for them to do. “We have been very busy for the past few days. You are spending your time with the twins and half of it with Jun and Nadia. I know that you are working with them and making sure that

With Aaron a bit flustered with all the reason that he is currently denying, and Lindsey’s thoughts that’s screaming the she should stop for this is a sin.They both found themselves looking at each other at the same time, and quickly look back like teens who are starting to fall in love.“I didn’t expect to see you here and today.”Aaron break the awkward silence in between them. Fixing his voice for a second and looks back to meet Lindsey’s eyes that made it worst for the both of them.“Me too! I mean, what a coincidence right?”Lindsey played it cool after almost stuttering with her words.“Well, I was thinking about the kids so I bake some cookies and took it for myself to give them today.”“I see.”Her first excuse that somehow made Aaron’s expression brightens with a smile. A calm expression that she never seen from him and not to mention from all the little war that they’ve been exchanging for the past days.

    “OPEN your eyes, she’s been cheating on you, harry.”A seductive tone whispers directly to Harry’s ear. With a body that can make any man drool over her, a beauty that is on par with a goddess, and blonde hair that compliments her beauty. Harry is distracted and tempted. Currently boiling in anger and lingering with disappointment. After all, pieces of evidence are all in front of him right now. A cheating that couldn’t be drowned by drinks and wine, but a bit by the comfort of an acquaintance that he just met again after years and now is the only one he thinks who can understand his pain. “You shouldn’t have married someone like her. She is only wasting your worth.”She smiles seductively. Pouring Harry an alcoholic drink while exchanging glances with the bartender, who did the same to the people around them. Somewhat like a play, no, a plan where everyone is the actor, the hunter, and the wild beast. And Harry is the foolish prey that they are paid to toy with. “Damn! Why is she

    “YOU aren’t coming with me?”“I’m sorry, but something came up, so I need to be here.”Lindsey’s disappointed tone. Looking for wants and further explanation from Harry. But her husband isn’t even lifting his head to look at her. With its odd, especially during dinner. “Harry, is there something wrong?”She asks, having the gut feeling that something is bothering her husband and Harry isn’t telling her anything. Nothing at all. “Something wrong?”Harry gloomily replied. Implying something from his tone and choice of words. Bothering Lindsey, who is not used to such treatment and not at all. “There is nothing to worry about Lindsey. I just need to fix things quickly at work. You know how much mom expects out of me, right?”“I understand.”A bit of feeling defeated, knowing that there is nothing wrong or bad about what Harry just said. Especially not intended to mean any negative thoughts toward Adriella. Who is a good mother-in-law and loves her husband for her and the both of them.

They started to exchange thoughts and none of them wanted to admit defeat not tell the other the scheming things that they are planning. “You do know that Aaron will be there, right?”“So, you have guessed it?”“Then I’ll be taking that as your positive response.”They both draw a cunning smile. Just waiting for the other to slip and spill the beans that they all along both know what it is, how, and why. “He doesn’t have to know. It’s my plan, my mind, and I am using my own hands to get dirty this time.”“Tsk! But aren’t our hands always dirty with the tricks and schemes that we’ve done, and made us who we are right now?”Hiro smirks a bit and giggles. Taking Ash's words and the first few as a joke. But more or less their conversation is under the bridge of blood and whispering torture. “Just what are you trying

Left alone in the headmistress office and at first glance they are seem to share a casual tea time. He looks down, not in shame, but a bit of worry from how things unfolded. Which makes him think if he is regretting his decision of giving Cath a clue about the past.“Or should I call you now with your known name, Aaron?”“Tell me, do you hate me that much after what you have learn, Cath?”“Hate you?

You who put me behind bars, Catherine Wayne.”“Cath!”Two familiar voices echo in the air, but before Cath could look and see for herself who could those two people be?

Do not let go no matter what happens and wait for her to say so. “Do you understand, Cole?”“Alright, aunt Lindsey.”The little boy replied and quickly borrow his face to Lindsey’s chest.
