"What the—"The two quickly followed behind him, both equally shocked by the scene of Axel holding Maneger Hans from the top of the stairs, threatening to push him off."Was it you, or not?" His tone was calm and steady, as if he were under an umbrella on a sunny afternoon, sipping an exotic tea, discussing the weather, and not threatening to push someone to their death.Seeing that he wasn't saying anything, he loosened his hold, and Hans dangled from just his shirt. "If not, give me a name. Just a name. You should know, right? After all, that is the reason you are the head of the department.""I... I don't know.""You don't." Axel smiled eerily."It was me." A voice came from behind Lisa, and she sighed. The person was Jamie.He said, his voice trembling. "I was the one who passed the design.""So it was you." Axel let go of his prey, and his eyes fixed on the boy, who was already shaking like a lone leaf in the middle of a storm.He stalked over, eyes filled with killing intent. "O

The Cafe was a walk away from the company and was frequently visited by the employees during lunch time.Axel ordered an ice americano, while Lisa settled for a chocolate smoothie.Axel took a sip, then gestured at her blouse. "You wore that last Friday right?""How did you know?" Lisa glanced at the black chiffon top she was wearing then asked. "Do you lack clothes?" He said straightforwardly, and she shifted in her chair uncomfortably."Yes—no—i mean, I do." She coughed taking a drink from her smoothie. "I do have clothes.""Let's go." He stood up, walking to the door."What?" Lisa grabbed her smoothie, looking between him and the waiter behind the counter. "The bill, we aren't paid the bill.""Leave it." Axel threw back only two words.Lisa weighed the pro and cons. The worst that could happen was that they would be stopped at the door.And fortunately she was spared of the embarrassment.________________________"I don't like how you dress.

Chapter thirteen.

'This is war.'Everyone was dressed and ready for combat.Dahlia was particularly catchy in her black and white, skin-tight walkout outfit. Long red hair tied up, with the edges curling around her mid-back.Ms. Sarah even wore sports shoes and white gloves, looking like a ballkeeper in a national football tournament.Upon seeing the intense fighting spirit, Lisa couldn't help but ask. "Is it that serious?""Of course it is." Four pairs of eyes immediately settled on her, glaring viciously.She held her hands up in surrender, thinking. 'They really are taking this too seriously.'"You wouldn't know, but the prizes for the winners are really good." Lee said to her. "Plus, you also get a banner at the end of year celebration. It is instant recognition from all, and it is also one of the best ways to gain promotion.""I see." Lisa nodded her head thoughtfully.Dahlia threw an arm around her shoulder, shaking her left and right. "That is why, Lisa, we must not lose this year.""Does that m

Chapter fourteen.

"If you want to come, why not come yourself? Do you have to drag me along?"Chris murmured under his breath, glaring at Axel. "It is the company's field day. Showing up proves your dedication. Take it that I am helping you." Axel's eyes were fixed on Lisa, laughing about something with the research team manager and the others, and he didn't hear Chris scowl. "Says the person who was totally against it before." 'She is wearing shorts.' Axel thought and couldn't help but think about the first time he saw her. She was wearing a short skirt, exposing her white legs, which was really too attractive for her own good. He watched as the relay race began, and Chris, who was complaining earlier, got totally into it. Infected by the crowd, he was yelling at the top of his lungs. "Hypocrite." Axel snorted. His eyes narrowed when one of Lisa's pig teammates fell, and he couldn't take his gaze away as she jumped and shouted, looking completely mesmerizing. At the end, they managed to come in

The sophisticated voice could not be mistaken.She climbed down from the toilet, walking out with lowered eyes.Unable to resist asking. "How do you know I was in there?""I saw you walk in." He pointed out, one hand in his pocket and his eyes staring down at her.Feeling intimidated, Lisa stepped back, clearing her throat. "Were you waiting for me?"'Like a stalker?' A voice was added at her mind."I was just wondering why you were entering the men's restroom. Nothing else."Lisa's face heated up, and she fought against a stutter. "That is because the female restroom was locked. I was very pressed and didn't know what to do."Footsteps came from outside, and both of their eyes snapped to the door.On hearing several voices, Lisa panicked. She moved quickly, pulling Axel into a hidden corner at the end of the cubicles and pressing him to the wall with one hand covering his mouth.She prayed that no one noticed them.The last thing she wanted was to be caught in the men's restroom, alo

Lisa was sitting at her desk and typing away on her computer when her phone rang.It was an unfamiliar number, so she hesitated a little before picking up the call."Hello, Lisa speaking.""Come to the rooftop. Now." Five words, and the line goes dead.At once, she knew who had called.'Ah, that jerk'She pulled on her hair, glancing at the pile of work on her table.'what now?'She quickly tidied up her table, then grabbed her phone before heading to him.She had just pushed open the rooftop door when she heard his voice."You sure took your time.""I am sorry, I had to wait for the elevator." Lisa stated.Axel doesn't give her a reply—instead, she is struck dumb by a loud whirling sound.Strong breeze, wreaking havoc on her hair."An helicopter?" She muttered blankly, her mouth hanging wide open.When she recovered, it had already landed, and Axel started walking towards it."Get in," he said to her."Are we—are we going somewhere?” She asked reflexively. "But my bag?""Get in." Axe

The room turned out to be a suite with double rooms.Lisa was a little embarrassed after jumping to conclusions.She followed behind Axel, who halted and then turned to her. "Seriously? You thought it was just one room."Lisa pursed her lips, not knowing how to explain herself."Do you take me as a pervert or something?" He asked, and she almost nodded."No." She shook her head.Axel had seen through her words, shoving both hands into his pockets. "Be assured that I am not that kind of person. I don't like forcing people; I prefer consensual relationships."★★★★★On getting to the weekend, Lisa felt that she had survived a minefield.There were many times she wanted to explode and launch different varieties of attacks on her self-important boss.But she survived.She had managed to keep the job in the end.She didn't have to go to work on Sundays, so she spent the day working at the bakery.The owners, an old couple that she had worked with ever since she dropped out of school, were l

"Ah, achoo!" Lisa let out a loud sneeze, rubbing her red nose.She felt another sneeze coming, reaching for the tissue box Carol had handed over to her. Her nose was already clogging up, and she became sure that she had caught a cold.'It is all because of that damn jerk.' She gritted her teeth, grabbing another tissue.Unable to bear it anymore, she stood up to make herself a cup of hot tea. Maybe that would help.But it didn't."You don't look fine. Are you okay?" Manager Hans asked worriedly. He felt her forehead with the back of his palm, and a frown climbed up his lips. "You are burning.""I am?" Lisa also checked and realized it was true. She hadn't thought it was this serious."Did you take any medicine for it?" He looked at her, and she shook her head."No, not yet.""You should." He turned around, circling his desk.He grabbed his keys. "I will go with you. Let's go to the pharmacy.""What?" Lisa shook her head. "No need. I can go myself.""I will drive. It will be faster." M

"Since you're already here, I'm hungry. Make me something before you leave." Lisa heard what Axel said as she pulled into the driveway.She turned to him with a blank expression, drawing in a deep breath. It was hard not to notice that he was trying to rile her up nowadays, as if he enjoyed her misery and craved a particular response.But Lisa wasn't about to give him what he wanted. She turned on the engine, swerving out of the driveway once again.Axel was surprised. "Where are we going?"Eyes forward, and a smile forced between her teeth, she gave a reply. "A supermarket. Yesterday, when I came, I realized that you have nothing in your fridge." It was so empty that it made her wonder exactly what he hid at home. "There is one nearby. Let's buy some groceries first."Since Axel was the one paying, Lisa was very generous with the shopping. She bought things without even checking the price, something she had not done in her entire life, and the feeling was 'very good.'Axel stared at

Chapter twenty.

Lisa walked into the bar, taking a while to find Karen, who was sitting at the corner booth in the conspicuous corner.Karen looked up as she walked over and said, "You came straight from work?"Lisa couldn't care to explain, humming lightly. She slid into the leather seat opposite her. "What happened to you? You look like you haven't seen a good day in a while."Karen drove her hand through her dirty blonde hair, then said, "Do I look that bad?""Did something happen?" Lisa replied with the question."It is nothing." Her best friend muttered in a low voice. "Just that Sienna came back, and the house is starting to become noisy, as always."It was the beginning of December, and many schools were starting to go on holiday. Sienna was Karen's eldest sister, the apple in the eyes of her parents, and there was a very noticeable difference in the treatment of the two.Her parents even asked Karen to drop out of school just so her sister could go to university, and even if it was reasonable
