The thief with the grey mask pointed his gun at Claire but it was useless , again . Claire escaped all his bullets .
' Damn it ! That short bitch is capable . I have to make her surrender in one way or another . ' thought the thief with the grey mask , annoyed .
He took the woman standing next to him and pulled her from her hair .
" Ahhh ! Please don't hurt me......Let me go ! " said the woman crying in fear .
" You really are a shameless bastard . Grabbing a woman in such a way...........You deserve to rot in prison . " said Claire with an annoyed expression when she saw him grab her in such a forceful way .
" You........You........You........stay away or I will kill her . " said the thief with the grey mask , pointing his gun at the woman he had taken as his hostage .
Claire grabbed another metal stick in her hands and threw it on his knee so hard that made him lose his standing balance . She didn't waste any time and took the girl a
" I have been well . I finished university and I was offered a job at a prestigious company . " said Claire with a smile ." Really ? That's great ! Your life is getting better . " said madam Collen ." Yes ! A lot better . " said Claire ." I am so happy I got to see you again . " said madam Collen ." Me too madam Collen . " said Claire with a smile ." Look , little Ed ! A surprise , isn't it ? Claire this time didn't save only me but you too . " said madam Collen .When Claire heard the name little Ed , she was immediately reminded of the rude jerk she met back then .' No.........it can't be him . He would never wear such serious clothes . The last time I remember him , he had a bit of his hair dyed his hair . He would never have the image of a good boy . He is just a bastard . ' thought Claire with a forced smile .The two of them looked at each other's eyes and for a second it was as if time had frozen around them . Mada
Madam Collen couldn't keep her laughing anymore . When Edward heard the laughs he turned his head and saw it was madam Collen ." Madam Collen........ " said Edward with a pessimistic expression ." Pffft......Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !!!! Little Ed.........you really........Oh , my....pffft.......I have never thought a girl would actually behave like that with you . I understand that you left a bad impression on her when you two first met but I never knew that she would bear such a huge grudge against you . Pffft ! " said madam Collen as she continued to laugh ." You see it madam Collen ? This is the girl you think is as kind as an angel . Look what a lunatic she is ! " said Edward ." You are wrong little Ed . Last time you were the one who splashed water on her with the car , this time , she wasn't the one who splashed the water on you . It was a pure coincidence which is often referred to as karma . " said madam Collen ." Heh.....Madam Collen
When Claire looked at the giant , luxurious building she gulped even more nervously . She read on the information that it was an important company but she never thought that it would be this important . Claire looked at her dumbfounded reflection on the marble plate of the wall then shook her head and pinched herself . " Ouc !........It's real ! This is definitely real........ " said Claire with a worried expression .' I am gonna be employed in such a luxurious company.........WoW !!!!!.......Thank you God ! I will use this wonderful possibility you have given me to the fullest . ' thought Claire with an excited expression . She saw two employees with serious expressions come out of the company and realized that she needed to get a grip of herself . ' Calm down Claire !..........See your co-workers . They have a serious and hardworking expression on their face . You need to have the same attitude as them.......That's right ! Calm and composed...........Ju
The door of the meeting room opened and Nolan came inside . " Edward ! My bro !!! " said Nolan coming to Edward . " Stop right there ! I am not in the mood to listen to your stupid stuff . " said Edward with an annoyed tone . " What annoyed you again ? " asked Nolan . " ........The president had a meeting . " said his assistant . " Erik , was it the meeting with the same annoying people that were last time ? " asked Nolan . " Yes...... " said Erik , Edward's assistant . " ......Oh........No wonder he is angry then . " said Nolan . Before Edward got up from the chair that was at the place where the files were placed inside the meeting room , the door opened and Emma with Claire entered inside . The place was covered by a giant poster of the architecture of the project and some files attached to it , covering the three boys and making it impossible for the two of them to notice them ." We can talk in peace here . " sa
" It seems that you really can't stay away from me , crazy monkey girl . " said Edward with a grin .Claire looked at him shocked then with a tired and annoyed expression she held her forehead ." What the hell are you doing here ?............ " asked Claire shocked ." Do I have to answer you where I go and what I do ? " said Edward .Emma and Erik were surprised to see them react this way . Emma expected a nice scene and show between the two of them but now she got the feeling that they knew each other before . Nolan knew what had happened between them and couldn't keep himself from making a grin as he looked at them ." What is going on ? " whispered Erik ." He he he ! We are about to have some fun . " said Nolan with a smirk ." ......Listen buddy ! You keep saying that you wanna stay away from me but you keep appearing everywhere . " said Claire annoyed ." Talk in a proper manner . You have grown up now . You aren't the
" Stay quiet ! " said Claire looking at his eyes .' ...Heh ?....Just what does she think she is doing ?...... ' thought Edward looking at her eyes .Claire raised her head to look towards the window then saw another shining light ." Damn it ! " said Claire and looked at Edward then put her arms around their neck then pulled his head on her chest ." Just what are you doing ?......... " said Edward even more shocked ." Just keep quiet for a second . " said Claire looking at the window .Edward had his face leaned on her chest and could feel a warm feeling and could listen to Claire's heartbeat .' She is really surprising me.....Now that my head is leaning here.....she does have boobs ....quite soft actually.......Wait for a second ! Why is she behaving like this ?........Why am I standing like this without pushing her away ?.....This girl...... ' thought Edward with a confused expression ." Hyhhh......They should be gone now
" ...No matter how well trained one is , it's very hard to detect silent bullets or silent shots . " said Claire then looked at Edward ." With all this good evidence , I am mostly sure they will come for you tonight or lure you into a place somehow . " said Claire ." .....How are you so sure ? " asked Edward ." Because it's very obvious . " said Claire ." .....If that's the case , how about we turn the tables around and make this mysterious assassin fall into our trap ? " said Edward with a smirk ." What are you saying Edward ? " asked Erik confused ." I will use myself as the bait then you will come to rescue me then you will knock them off . " said Edward ." I saved you once . I have no intention of saving you again . " said Claire ." If you manage to catch the assassin alive and protect me while I act as the bait , I will fire you and also give you double of the pay you deserve for just saving me . Do you agree ? " s
" No , he will never do that to me.....he can't do that to me . " said Claire ." Huh ?......Why.....What can make him hold back from doing something bad to you if you anger him ? " asked Emma confused ." Because....I have a string backer . " said Claire with a smile .Emma still looked at her confused then Claire started to tell her everything that had happened between her and Edward . She told her how she saved madam Collen and how she managed to save them from yesterday's incident . As she listened to her , Emma couldn't help but feel surprised and amazed . She started to laugh when she heard the dirty water the taxi splashed on Edward ." ....Really......I can't believe such a thing actually happened to him . Unbelievable !........Is the taxi driver okay ? " said Emma ." Yes , he is ! I saw him this morning before coming here . " said Claire and both of them laughed ." .....You are amazing ! I say this with all my heart......Seriously
