In the morning, Gideon was stunned on one side. He continues to think about his mother. In her dream, he called her again. This happens whenever he has a problem or something bothers him, especially when it involves his father.

He sighed and shifted his gaze to the papers under his desk. He needed to finish these papers, but his headache was still drowning him.

It's still a burning fever, he held his head. He picked up his phone and dialed Isabel's number.

"I need you in the office, the air conditioner is killing me in the cold." he said.

Isabel wasted no time in going straight to Gideon's office. She found the remote and quickly turned off the air conditioner. She came closer to caress Gideon's forehead.

"My God, Gideon, you're on fire; we need to call a doctor," she worriedly said.

Gideon gave a nod. "I called Dr. Jace to check on me; he'll be here soon, my love; don't worry."

Isabel blushed. Gideon addressed her as "my love" for the first time. She stroked Gideon's cheek as they w

Since then, I knew that you are the woman I need, because you give me peace of mind.” he went on.Isabel was attached to his words.

Gideon said seriously, pulling out a pen and a scrap of paper.Kevin frowned as Gideon wrote on that piece of paper and handed it to him."What shall I do here, Sir?" he asked."Go to the police station and look for those two people's records; they died in an accident twelve years ago; you need the exact date and reason for the accident, is that clear?"

You know you shouldn't have done it but you did it anyway!” Freya said angrily to him.Gideon stood up from his seat because he didn't like Freya rushing in his office."I did that because that was the right thing to do! I wouldn't do that if I didn't love Isabel, I can deal with accusations and issues against me by journalists or the whole world, just don't lose Isabel's trust in me!" answered Gideon.Freya fell silent. "You're not thinking Gideon, that can get to your Dad and when he finds out you have other priorities, he'll easily take the business you've worked so hard for!" she continued.Gideon winced as he knew that was going to happen but he had to be prepared."Let me take care of my own problems, Freya." answered Gideon. "You can leave."Freya let out a sigh. "I can't believe in you. You will sacrifice your shame for your ins

Arkus asked Freya as they ate breakfast together."Have you seen him this morning?" Freya asked him back."Nope. I think he was late this morning." answered Arkus eagerly, slicing his Sourdough Bread which is famous at Fierro Resorts.Freya rolled her eyes. "He is always late, Arkus. Ever since he met that poor waitress, he has been neglecting the business.”Arkus chuckled.

    "That girl, Gideon's girlfriend..she is beautiful." Arkus said while he was sitting on the sofa in Freya's apartment.Freya stopped pouring wine into their glass because of what Arkus said.Freya sighed. "Don't tell me, you too will lose your mind because of that girl?"Arkus grinned. "She is not my type. But if she's going to fall in my trap, well…I'll take it.”Freya was surprised by what Arkus said but she couldn't hide that she was delighted by those words. It seems that she was right in her suspicion that Arkus is the answer for her plan to go ahead."Why don't you try? I think Isabel is easy to get.” she laughed."Let's see, but not right now because I don't want Gideon to kill me. I just came back from New York, I haven't enjoyed it yet.” Arkus answered with a laugh."Cheers."

    "Oh, why did you talk to Sir Gideon so quickly?" Alice asked, just coming out of the kitchen.Isabel sighed. "I didn't talk to him much. He is with Ms. Freya at the office, I even heard that they ordered pizza. I don't know if Ms. Freya made me hear that she knows Gideon better than I do or something.” she said with mixed doubts."They are still at work at this hour? But at Resorts I rarely see them together.” Alice answered.Isabel let out a sigh. "Maybe Gideon is really busy at work, maybe he needs help from Ms. Freya, that's why she's there too." she replied, trying to calm herself down."Hmm, it's better to trust your boyfriend, Isabel. Besides, they've only been in the City for two days, maybe Freya will just get really close, taking advantage of the fact that you're not by Sir Gideon's side."Isabel nodded in agreement with what Alice said.
