At exactly five-thirty in the evening, Rao dropped Aviana off at their mansion. Aviana bid him goodnight and went inside afterwards. Rao didn't leave immediately. He walked around, surveying the neighborhood to ensure there was no one lurking around. It had become his routine to check the area everyday before he left, because it had come to his notice that someone was following Miss Cole everywhere she went without her knowing it. What the person wanted from her, he didn't know, and neither was he gonna take the risks. He had been put in that position, as Aviana's chauffeur, not just to drive her around, but also to protect her. He was her bodyguard, and he was gonna protect her at all cost. The neighborhood was clear. Rao knew the man had to be around, so he felt it was a bit off when he could not find anything that looked suspicious, anything that could lead him to the strange man. Nonetheless, he wasn't going to leave. The strange man would definitely show up, it didn't matter at
"Sir. This is what I found in his hide out," Rao reported as he placed the envelop he was holding on the desk and passed it to Ethan, who was sitting behind his desk as usual. Then, he stepped back, holding his hands on the front. "What's this." Ethan picked up the envelop and opened it. Inside the brown envelop were pictures taken from the video footage that Rao found inside the man's hide out. "Pictures taken from the video footage I found in his hide out. The man had cameras installed outside the company giving him enough access to everyone that went in and out of the company," Rao revealed. "You might want to listen to this, Sir," he added. Rao took out his phone from his pocket. He tapped on the screen, and the man's voice came along. Ethan gestured with his hand for Rao to hand over the phone to him, to which he did. Ethan listened keenly, the expression on his face was unreadable. "Alright. You're doing quite a good job being my ears as well as eyes in the company." "Your
Scarlet walked out of the office and slammed the door after her, shut. She stood there, her lips trembled due to sadness, her eyes slowly filling with tears. She felt her heart being shuttered into pieces everywhere. She was in shambles. His words hurt her so badly. She felt like she had fallen into cactus and her heart had been panctured a million times over by tiny pins. Right now, she needed someone to talk to, a friend and a shoulder to lean on. The only person she could think of was Aviana. With trembling hands, Scarlet took out her phone from her bag and made the call. Aviana answered the call instantly, "Hey, Scarlet." Scarlet went silent all of a sudden. Aviana frowned. "Scarlet? Are you there?" Scarlet wiped at her tears that were starting to overflow and answered after a while, in a rather calm voice as she tried to mask her sadness. "Yes, Avi. I'm here." Unfortunately for her, Aviana noticed that everything wasn't okay with her friend. This was the first time she had
Aviana had been sitting behind her desk working when she heard someone knock on the door. She was expecting Scarlet, so she stood up immediately and rushed to open the door. She opened the door, and Scarlet stood there, low-spirited. Tears were slowly filling in her eyes and her lips were trembling. Her hand was clenched on the bag she was carrying on her shoulder while the other hand, she let it fall on her side. Aviana was extremely shocked and worried for her at the same time when she saw the tears in her eyes. "Scarlet?" She stepped closer. "Are you okay?" Scarlet was silent. She continued to just stand there and stared at Aviana, the tears in her eyes threatening to spill and at the same time she was holding the tears back, fighting to keep them from falling. Aviana had never seen this fragile side of Scarlet. She always knew Scarlet to be a tough girl, a girl who would never let anyone see her tears, atleast she had never seen her sad. Now, she looked so broken. Aviana could
A yellow cab halted in front of G&K company. A cute little boy, probably the age of seven years, exited the cab. The boy wore a white blouse, he had a red tie neatly adorned around his neck, a pair of red and black stripped trouser and a pair of black shoes. He carried his school bag on his back. The boy was about to head inside the building, however, the cab driver stopped him and asked for his money. Hayden apologized immediately and took out a few notes from his trouser pocket and handed them to the old man. "Sorry. I'm just so excited to see my uncle." "Does your uncle work here?" "No and Yes. He actually owns the company, so he's the boss here. His name is Ethan Urkel. Do you know him?" "Yes. I have heard a lot about him. Alright, kiddo. It was nice doing business with you. See you." The cab driver drove off. Hayden immediately made a u-turn and went inside the building. "Wow!" he exclaimed in surprise as soon as he got in, attracting the attention of the receptionist. The
Hayden frowned deeply watching Ethan laugh. Ethan stopped laughing for a moment. He asked, "So, you like a girl –" Hayden interrupted him suddenly. "Love. I love her." "Sorry. You love a girl that is in your class!? The girl's name is Natasha!? And, you want her to be your girlfriend, you just don't know how to ask her or tell her!?" It was more of a statement than a question. Hayden simply nodded his head. And again, Ethan laughed. He leaned his back on the chair and laughed uncontrollably. Hayden was annoyed. "What's so funny, uncle Ethan!?" "Nothing," Ethan simply said while he continued to laugh. "No, I don't think so. Did I make a mistake coming to you for advice? I should probably leave," Hayden was about to get down from the desk. However, Ethan stopped him immediately. He said, "Alright. Alright. Alright. I won't laugh anymore." But, he was still laughing. "You're still laughing!" Hayden exclaimed, extremely annoyed. "Okay. Now, I'm serious." Ethan took a deep breath
As soon as Ethan walked through the door, everyone turned their heads to look at their boss, shock written all over their faces. As usual, Ethan wore a three-pieced suit, black in color and he accompanied the outfit with a pair of black shoes. Everyone could perceive that there was something different about their boss, today, from the moment he walked through the door. He was emitting a different aura today compared to the other days when he would walk in and everyone would look down immediately and continue working, and dared not look at him even for a second. But, today for some reasons they didn't look down, they found themselves staring at him and not wanting to look down. Their boss looked like he was in a good mood – good was even underrated. And, as if to confirm that their speculations were right, Ethan greeted them. "Good morning, everyone." "Good morning, Sir," they replied simultaneously. "Good morning, Jenny," he greeted the receptionist too, and the smile on his face d
Three consecutive days passed and Aviana didn't show up in the mansion like she always did. Old Mr Urkel, who was sitting behind his desk inside his study room seemed to be pre-occupied with his thoughts. He saw how determined she was for the past days she had been coming to the mansion, to win him over. She made it a routine to pay him a visit everyday and not once did she fail to show up and neither was she late. However, for a couple of days now, he didn't see her. Old Mr Urkel couldn't help but wonder why? Maybe, she decided to give up after all, he thought. At that moment, the door opened. Instantly, Old Mr Urkel looked towards the door thinking that it was her. But to his disappointment the maid walked in carrying his evening coffee. She placed it on the table and left. But, before walking away, Old Mr Urkel instructed her to tell the butler to see him immediately. A while later, the butler went inside the study room. He said, "Sir. You asked to see me?""She hasn't visited
