Culprit proved
Grandpa broke the silence with a sigh.
“So, Lucy doesn’t have anything to defend herself, right?” he confirmed.
“Yes, she doesn’t. Cause she’s a cheater and nothing else,” Gray adds, with a pleasant smile appearing on his face.
“I still can’t believe that she’s as dishonest as you are making her seem like. So, I’ll need to see everything with my own eyes,” grandpa said, turning to Lucy.
“Bring me the files for the project created by both of your teams, and I’ll make my decision on who’s the wrong one here. Hurry up,” said grandpa.
Julia wasn’t expecting him to say that. Gray and Olivia none of them were expecting him to say that.
“Is there any need to do that dad? I mean you don’t believe your grandchildren will be lying to you, will they?” added Hughes’s mom.
“You keep your mouth shut when I’m talk

“We are sorry about our behavior as well grandpa,” Julia added, with a bow.Hughes also got up from his seat and bowed, “I’m sorry for cheating as well.”Seeing others apologize, Olivia admitted defeat as well.“I’m a sorry grandpa, for doing all of this.”“Glad you understand your fault and apologized also. I forgive you, but you need to be a little bit punished, don’t you?”.Olivia looked up with a confused face.“What kind of punishment?”.“Your marks will get cut off half, all the points you managed to accumulate this far, will go to waste, this is a huge loss which will teach you a great lesson,” Grandpa replied.“No way you can do that grandpa,” Julia remarks, clenching her hands into fists.“At this rate, Lucy will have much more points than us, isn’t she?”.“So what?

Lucy ran off to her house with a happy expression on her face. She wasn’t expecting her grandpa to say anything in her favor nor to praise her also. Things seem to be going too well for her than she imagined it to be. When she was back home, she told her mom and dad about it. They were happy to hear that. She went to tell Robin about it, who was in his art room.She didn’t knock and went inside immediately.Inside she saw him painting a woman on the board. A woman facing her back with hair up to her back was spotted. She was wearing a pale blue one-piece with flower patterns on it in the field of lavender.She was struck at the view and just stood at the door watching him. He didn’t even notice that she was standing there and only focused on his work. She watched his back, who was putting all his attention in front of the thing which stood before his eyes and nothing else.“I admire his concentration skills. Wish I could do s

Soon, afternoon came, it was lunchtime.“I’m done. I can’t go through all of them at all,” Nick sighs, taking off his light blue coat, loosening his red striped tie, and placing the coat onto the table.“It’s too soon to give up,” Chelsa replied. She was done half-checking all of them.“All of them has higher experience level than us. Why were we even chosen with our standard?” Zoe mumbled.“I heard you,” Nick added.“I’m out of coffee, gotta bring some. Keep working everyone,” he left with a wave.After Nick left, Lucy and others were doing work. But then Lucy noticed it was lunchtime when she turned the clock on her table.“At this rate, I won’t be able to have lunch with him. I have half an hour to leave. What should I do with this bunch of papers?”.After thinking about it for a while, Lucy made up her mind.“E

“So, did you managed to find any person who can work under a sadist like you?” Robin comments with a chuckle.“Sadist?” Lucy gave a surprised glance at him in confusion.“Who are you calling sadist? I am more kind than you think I am. I know I’m too demanding and bossy, but that’s part of my job.”“I know.”“But we couldn’t manage to find anyone. Hope they’ll find a better person for the job. Anyway, I wanna take a nap. Do you have any plans for the evening?” Lucy asked casually.“Plans? Well….no. why?”.“Well….the thing is….i want to do some shopping. Wanna accompany me?”.She faced her back against him while saying that.“What? You want to…..she’s asking me on a date, isn’t she?”.“This is….the chance isn’t it?”.“Do you not

Lucy tackled him and he couldn’t lean onto anything for support and the rack of clothes behind him fell also. Lucy backed away and spotted a white dress among the bunch of dresses. “What is that?” she became curious to find out about it. When she moved closer and picked it up from the ground. “Ouch,” Robin cried out, asking for help while lying in the savanna of clothes. When she stared at the dress and observed it closely, her cheeks brightened red. “You were hiding this?” she stuttered. “Eh?” he looked at her to find them sitting with the dress in her hand. He was also shocked. “She found it after all?”. After that, none of them spoke to each other and Robin just stood outside the corner so that he won’t have to face the awkward silence. He heaved a sigh, leaning onto the wall, watching people come and go. He sneaked sometimes to check on her. A

This brought tears to her eyes.He faced his back against her, to gain some composure. He heaved a deep sigh, and inhaled again. Fixing his clothes, he wiped away his mouth with the sleeves and turned to face his best friend.“Christina, I want to make this clear to you. Stop forcing yourself on me! Lucy and I, still haven’t divorced yet, and we are not married, so till then……behave……please.”He got down and searched for his phone and found it lying beside her. He took it and turned on the power.He checked the call logs.“You have a voice mail.”He opened it up.“Lucy here, I haven’t managed to find you anywhere. If you manage to spot me, come and find me near the door of the restaurant. I’ll be waiting.”

Robin finished the turkey before Lucy got to finish, and she just saw him sitting with a bloated belly, and was smiling at him awkwardly.“I ate too much,” he rubbed his hand over his belly heaving a sigh and noticing his wife’s stare.“What is it? Why are you staring at me?”.Lucy chuckled. “Watching how you ate all of that up like nothing. Do you know how many calories does that contain?”.“Ah……..No, and I can care less about it.”“I’m happy and content with the food I had. That’s all that matters to me.”“Is that really enough to be happy?” she asked, staring at the reflection of herself in the glass which she held onto.“Success is not the meter which counts your happiness. You can find happiness anywhere in the world, not just with material goods. Not having enough money will bring you happiness. It will assure you, but n

I’m here to see you two, that’s all,” she said, placing her hand on the side of his cheek and placing a light kiss on it also.“To see us?” Lucy was surprised by her act.The grin on Noir’s face was not hidden from anyone.“Oops! I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to kiss your husband right in front of your very own eyes. Just treat it as a little joke, will you?” Noir asked with a chuckle.She even placed one hand over his shoulder, to pull him close to hers.“I’m his friend from kindergarten.
