The peace before the storm
“You are…?” Lucy became puzzled a little cause she doesn’t know her exactly. Robin stepped forward and walked over to Noir’s side.
“Are you out for something?” he asked.
“No! 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. Nice to meet you, Miss Wife.”
“I’m Lucy Campbell,” she stated, stepping forward with a straightforward gaze.

Soon the morning came, Robin woke up earlier, as he was the only one who couldn’t sleep no matter what. Bags formed under his eyes, making him look half-asleep. “I should prepare breakfast and get her clothes ironed.” He was cooking, all of a sudden his phone ringed. He was making soup, he turned off the gas, and went to pick up the phone. “Hello,” he took a seat on the chair. “Young master, this is me, Chris. Good morning.” “Oh, Chris. Good morning. How are you?”. “I’m doing well all thanks to you. But how are you doing? Everything going alright with the young lady?”. “Ah….yes.” “What did you call for early in the morning?”. “Well….master told me to give you some instructions. You have work.” “Work?

When they walked out of the lift, Lucy walked out, towards their new department. She opens up the door and is greeted by Chelsa. “Good morning.” Lucy also greeted back, “Good morning. When did you come? Aren’t you too early?”. “Yes, but when I thought someone new would be joining us, I couldn’t hide the urge to look cool in front of the new person so that he’ll at least respect us, that’s why.” “He?”. “Take a seat first, the others will arrive one by one,” Chelsa guided her towards her seat. The cabin was different than the old one they used to stay in. She went to her seat and looked at the things. Chelsa came and placed the files on her table. “There are some boxes left to arrive from our old room. Would you mind helping me bring them from the old room to this room?”. “Ah, sure.” They were busy till Nick and Zoe arrived. They also helped them out and eventually they manag

“Seems like everything is going the way we want it to go,” Noir comments, taking a sip of her juice in hand. A playful and pleasant smile formed on her lips, as she cuts through the steak presented on her plate.Chris grilled it and brought it to her.“Is this from the guy you hired?” Robin’s dad asked. He was also eating the steak made by Chris.“Is he working properly as we are telling him to?”.“Yes, he is working properly. Hope to hear good news from him soon.”“How much time did you give him?” he gulped down his drink and ate again.“One to two weeks.”“Hmm, hope he can finish in a short time.”“Leaving that aside, Where did you send Robin by the way?” Noir asked with curiosity.“He? I sent him in Trevor to deal with people. Negotiations are one of his greatest virtues.”“This sounds like a pesky job. You are a tease, aren’t you uncle?”.“I may be, after all, I’m giving him so much money whenever he needs to help his wife. He needs to pay it back in labor.”“I need some salt,” he

“You want to send him to jail?” Lucy, glanced back at Henry, trying to understand the situation carefully.Hearing the word jail, something rang in Henry’s ears, and his eyes turned a bit darker than earlier. He pushed away from his hand of Zoe and glared at him.“What?” Zoe grunts. “You have the nerve to give me that look when you are trying to stalk your boss in her office? Is this how you are showing your true colors?”.Henry bites his lips and exasperated a deep sigh. He straightens his posture and turns to Lucy.“I had been looking for a way to tell you that you had done a mistake on project 23. The calculations are a bit off. But then I thought, how could you, the boss make a mistake, so I felt a bit hesitant to tell you about it. which is why I couldn’t bring up this matter no matter what. That’s the reason behind all the confusion in the first place.”“I kept staring at you trying to tell you, and Zoe saw me and thought of me as a stalker which I am not mistakenly.”Zoe’s eyes

Henry walked slow and steadily through the corridor, smiling. He relaxed his hands into his pockets and went towards the cafeteria.He sat down and ordered a coffee for him along with a pastry.“Seems like, the medicine was just enough for him. Now he won’t think about bothering in my missions. Calling me a criminal and threatening me to send to jail, weren’t you? The one who’s suffering is you, and not me.”“This way, Lucy already lost trust in him and I’ll do the same thing with the other ones as well. After that, all her business relations will be destroyed and she won’t have anyone in the office to call her friend, and the only one she’ll turn to help is me, Henry Sullivan.”“I’ll break through her barrier, and get close to her. The next target after this will be her husband.”“Slowly, you’ll like and trust me only, and hate everyone. This is how I’ll conquer you.”“You’ll love me only, and no one. Mark my words. I am not lying.”He finished his food and got up, only to receive a

Bruce handed him the tea and snacks, and sat down in front of him. He brought an coffee cup for himself. Robin took a bite and calmed down. He glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. But Bruce looked outside the window, watching something. Robin also looked out, to see some old people walking through the street in front of his house. He smiled a little for the first time ever since Robin came here. When he glanced back, Robin lowered his eyes away, sipping his tea. Bruce straightens his posture and turned to him. “You had been, sitting here for half an hour, and all you are drinking is tea. You aren’t speaking about the reason for coming here at all.” “You didn’t came to drink tea, from all the way, did you?”. Robin looks up, hearing the comment. Bruce looked serious this time. He wasn’t joking. Robin looked sideways to divert his attention. But he sighs, not able to think of anything. He placed away his cup, and then turns to Bruce. He was determined to tell him the tr

“Why are you calling me worst?” asked his dad. He was in his office at the moment, smoking his cigar.“You sent me to Trevor to deal with the government official. You knew that he was using this house to take care of orphans and old people. Then why do you want to take this house away from them even though you know that you are doing the wrong deed?”.“They have nowhere to go any longer. Why do you want to take this property away?”.His dad heaved a sigh and spoke, “I knew that they have no place to go. But I need their property. I need that place, and I have already paid them the money. What’s wrong if I want to take it away from them?”.“They can use the money to go anywhere they please, can’t they?”.“I don’t believe it!” Robin grunts.“You knew all of this and sent me here to persuade them to leave their home?”.“You want to make me the villain here? Are you such an evil person? I never thought you would be like this, dad.”“I feel ashamed to be your son. You want to drive away fr
