The following day…

It was friday.

The sun had fully risen, dividing its rays in full blast as well as Athena, dressed in her office business attire ready to strike a rundown of Ashley's report…

She had her hair blown dry cascading to her back, face fixed with light makeup. Her plump lips are cherry red giving a sexy yet dangerous and alluring aura at a glance…

As she gazed at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help smirking when she recalled the events that happened last night.

*** Flashback***

Athena was about to turn left to head back to Monroe's ancestral home when her mobile phone's constant vibration caught her attention. Once again, she stepped on her brakes and halted on the roadside to have a look.

Her flickering screen displayed - Mike calling in the caller ID.

    Athena was stunned at Terrence's sudden outburst over the phone. She didn't know why he said such words but somehow her insides felt uncomfortable hearing them. It stirred something forming into odd knots that seemed twisting her gut for unknown reason. Just what had she done to earn his emotional turmoil in such an early morning? She was really confused to death thus she remained silent, listening to his accusing remarks."I know what you think. That I deserve all of these!" He continued to babble. "Yeah, I definitely deserve this treatment from you!" She shut her eyes and inhaled sharply, suppressing the urge to nag at him because it would only add fuel to his anger. She remained silent on the other end until he felt satisfied, berating her."Why aren't you saying anything? Talk to me, Athena." He demanded haughtily."Are you done?" Was her cold and short inquiry."I'm not. You have to see me right now." He demanded."Mr. Adams, what's wrong with you? Have you eaten something wrong

    The whole day passed by in a blur…The office hours had ended… Streetlights gradually brighten up every dim road.Athena was getting ready for the night. She had Ashley assigned to choose her outfit. From the dress, set of jewelries, heels and even her purse. As long as she looked dignified, she didn't care about whatever design and color she had chosen for her… She just requested one thing, that her long hair should be left down as she didn't feel like keeping them up together in her scalp. It was just a simple dinner and nothing else so why does she have to make some fuss over her appearance? "You look perfect in a red off shoulder, Miss Zenith. The black heels matched the dress as well…" Ashley complimented honestly.Athena gazed at herself in her huge dresser mirror intently searching for something unusual on her face. After a short while, she chuckled. "I'm not actually fond of red but I appreciated this… It looks good on me.""You look like a goddess, Miss Zenith." Ashley prais
