You look like quite stressed out", Edgar noted."You can't even begin to imagine. With dad away settling the investors overseas and also working on something secret I don't know about, I have to take care of everything here and many other major issues. It's taxing", Leo replied."Too bad dude. See this is why I would never want to be you.""Of course. You are better off just being irresponsible and childish", Leo fired"Hey! That hurt you know?", Edgar said pretending to look hurt."Whatever. What do you want this time? Why did you come?""Heol! Are you trying to say I can't come to see you without wanting something?", Edgar asked pitifully"Yes", Leo replied blankly. "What did you do?", he asked"Nothing! Ah you really don't have much fate in me. Well for your
Knock knock. "Enter" "Miss Turner, the interview will begin shortly." "Alright. You may leave.", Cassie responded. She sighed before trying to call Sarah again. Beep Beep. The sound of the line being disconnected came through on her phone. "Once again there was no reply", she sighed again before putting down her phone. She couldn't really blame Sarah, she was a bit too harsh to her last time. Cassie sighed again before standing up from her chair. She put herself together and headed towards the room where the interview was going to take place. Today they were holding an interview for the post of Assistant to the Marketing Manager. The last one was fired due to his incompetence. And to prevent that from happening again she wanted to oversee this interview herself. She wouldn't be the one conducting the interview. She would just sit on the sidelines and watch the procedure noting down some important things or anyone who pa
"Who came to see you?", Leo asked with his brows raised."Miss Lee, Miss Turner's friend I believe", Edgar replied nonchalantly"Oh? And what did she want?", he asked relaxing on his chair."She wanted you.""What?!", Leo nearly choked on his saliva."Oh?", Edgar raised his eyes to him"I didn't mean it that way. She came asking about you.""Asking about me?""Yeah. She wanted to know your information."Leo thought about it for a while before he slowly asked in a low voice,"Well.... was she asking for herself or did she say someone sent her?"Edgar eyed his friend for a long time. Looks like Leo's feelings for Cassie ran deep. He clearly wanted to know if she was looking for him. Could this actually be a good thing?"She said she was there for a friend." Leo's eyes sparked"But I don't exactly think Miss Turner actually sent her, if that's what you wanted to know"Leo raised his eyes.
Minetti MansionLeo sat in front of his father. His father had been silent since he arrived and honestly it was beginning to get on his nerves. He was not in the mood for whatever mind games his father wanted to play with him, he thought as he sighed wearily. He glanced at his father again.Growing up, Leo couldn't exactly his father was the best father. Heck! His father wasn't even a normal father much less the best. At a very young age Leo was already being trained for when he would take over his father's position in the Mafia. At age 7, he was already being trained in martial arts. Age 10, and his father already thought he was old enough to use a gun. He remembered on his 12th birthday his father had gifted him a gun as a present. "Definitely not a normal father", Leo smirked. But then again his family wasn't a normal one anyway. But regardless of how weird Leo's father might have been, he had loved his mother. And that was one thing Leo respected about him. He had
"Nothing?", Cassie asked as she looked at Sarah. "Yes nothing. I couldn't find a record of any Leo around either Lucian Santino; which was quite understandable at first because it seemed they weren't too close but with Edgar Monroe? I was expecting to find something since they seemed really close but I couldn't find anything. It's almost as if such a person doesn't exist around them.", she replied. Cassie fell into deep thought. It's either Leo was no one significant which seemed very unlikely because they should at least be able to find something about him if he was ordinary or he wasn't an ordinary person at all. Then who was he? He was acquaintances with two very powerful people and now they couldn't find anything about him. "Anyways I think maybe I didn't dig deep enough. Maybe I should try...." "No don't", Cassie said "What? Why?", Sarah asked her dumbfounded. "No need. I shouldn't focus myself on finding some man anyway. It's not my way.
"He's here! Everyone to your stations!". These were the shouts that rang through the precinct as the police officers readied themselves for the arrival of one of the most important figure in their entire State Security Department.He walked in with a powerful aura. Calm yet powerfully he headed straight for the Chief's office ignoring all the people who had lined to greet him."Woah. Who is he?", one of the younger policemen asked an older one."Sealey", the older one replied."Detective James Sealey. One of the most brilliant detective in our entire State Department if not the entire country", he continued in awe."Woah", the younger one responded surprised."Then what is he doing here?", another young officer asked."I heard he was recently transferred to our District on Special assignment", the elder one replied."Really?", the officer responded as he looked towards the Chief's office where the man was currently shaking hand
Somewhere in Country Z"Sir", the man greeted an older man who sat in front of a window.The older man slowly turned back"Are they still together?". he asked."No they've since returned from Kingston and are no longer together", he replied."Good. And what about the attacks we staged within a branch of their gang?""It was effective. The Minettis are currently invested in finding out the people behind it as they lost a lot""And the information?""We made sure they only got the information we purposefully released to them""Good. Now keep watching them and hold off on the attacks for now""Yes sir", the man left the room.The older man sighed and turned back to the window. He closed his eyes and drifted off into his memories."No....please...no"Country M"So you are saying, if we do not make changes in our company's strategy, when the stock market peak come
"So I think I know a way to find him", Sarah announced as she barged into Cassie's office. Cassie sighed,"Sarah what do you think you are doing? This is my office you can't just barge in here like that. And who are you talking about?""Your mystery romance of course""Ah", Cassie signed once again. She was beginning to regret telling Sarah what happened. Because as you can see, she gets a little over excited when it come to things like this. Now she was talking about looking for him."Sarah, please just leave it okay? I really don't want to", Cassie attempted to make her drop the topic."What do you mean you don't want to? You have to find him then punch him in the face for ever leaving like that. Like seriously how could he just leave like that?""Aish I swear if I was you and I get my hands on him I'll wack him on that nice smooth butt of his", Sarah said."What?! Sarah!""What? Don't tell me you didn't notice how round and
"He already checked out ma'am", the receptionist told Cassie. Cassie looked at the woman and calming herself down she asked, "Really?", she still couldn't believe it. "Yes, this morning he checked out. He looked like he was in a hurry to catch a flight", the receptionist replied politely. No, Cassie wouldn't believe it. He had actually left. He had left without saying goodbye. After everything yesterday he had left just like that. Since Cassie was drunk last night she couldn't remember much, but she remembered her had carried her to her room and she had said somethings. What she said exactly? She couldn't remember but she didn't think she had said something that would make him leave just like that so why? Why had he just left her like that? She had woken up this morning with a headache only to see that he was gone. She had searched her room and had rushed down to the reception desk not minding how she looked only to find out that her fears were actually true.
In the highest office of the tallest building in Lavender City, behind a fine mahogany desk, sat a woman working furiously at something on a computer.Her moderate dressing did nothing to hide her beauty as she looked like she was in her late twenties although she was in her thirties.Probably 5"4 ft tall with long black hair, a heart defined face with a pair of blue eyes as well as a curvy body on the moderate side, Cassandra Turner was very stunning."Ah finally done" Cassie sighed. Grabbing her cup of coffee and getting up from her table to stretch her legs she wandered over to the large glass window with a breathtaking view of the city and sighed once more.Standing there images of that night came through her,"No mom don't leave me please, please don't leave me all by myself", her desperate cries and pleas that night came flooding into her mind until she was interrupted by a knock on the door."Come in"."Miss Turne...
