Gerald was in his office, surrounded by his staff members. They were discussing the latest sales figures and brainstorming ideas for the next quarter. Gerald was proud of his team and their achievements even though he still couldn't deny that there was no one as good as Hazel in this company. He just had to accept it and live with it. He smiled and nodded as he listened to their suggestions. "I am sure by doing this, not only our company will benefit from it but also, people in our society and Infact, the whole country could." One of them said and they all clapped their hands in agreement. Suddenly, Gerald's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was from the police station. That was strange. He didn't think he had ever gotten any call from the cops before. He felt a surge of anxiety. He excused himself and answered the call. "Hello, this is Mr. Fraser Gerald speaking. The CEO of Fraser's Gemonds Jewelry inc. What's going on? How may I be of help?"

The phone beeped the first time and Arin decided to ignore the call. She buried her head in the computer, trying to finish up the task ahead of her. She had been challenged by some of her colleagues and she wanted to prove that she was the best. She had always wanted to be the best since Hazel left but Gerald had always turn her down because none of her work was as impressing as they expected but she never gave up. She continued to endeavor to be the best. The phone beeped again but Arin still decided to ignore it but no sooner had she gotten rid of the call, than someone came into her office and slammed the door, bang. Arin jolted up in shock and looked up to see who it was and to her biggest surprise, it was Amyra, her cousin and the new receptionist of the country. "What the hell would you do that for?" Arin yelled, holding her chest with her right hand still trying to catch her breath. "We need to talk. It's really important. 'Cause, I really don't understand what

Amyra and Hazel became closer over the next few days. Amyra visited Hazel often and brought her more gifts. She also invited her to go out for lunch, shopping, movies and other activities. Hazel accepted her invitations and enjoyed spending time with her. She felt like she had found a true friend who understood her and cared for her. She told Gerald about her but Gerald never for once met her, but for Hazel to say someone is good, then she must be good. Gerald concluded. Amyra pretended to be Hazel's friend but she was actually plotting to expose her. She wanted to make Hazel steal something in public and get caught by the police. She wanted to ruin her relationship with Gerald and send her back to jail. She wanted to make her pay for what she had done to Arin and Annie. She might not really understand the situation, but as long as Arin is concerned, she was ready to do anything for her. Amyra kept in touch with Arin and Annie and updated them on her progress. They were impr

Amyra waited in the small room for the police to arrive. She felt a surge of fear and anger. She sat there, still not being able to believe that she had been caught. She just couldn't believe that her plan had backfired within a twinkle of an eye. Each time he thought about She wondered what had gone wrong. Could Hazel have noticed the necklace in her own purse and switched it with hers? She wondered if Hazel had set her up ebecause she was aware of the game she was playing. But at the same time, she was doubting it. Hazel didn't look like someone who could do such a thing. She was a boring lowlife to Amyra who couldn't do such a thing, she would have asked her about it before taking any actions. She cursed herself for being so careless and stupid. The fact that Hazel outsmarted her still left her stupefied. She just wanted to get to the bottom of this. After waiting for Arin and Annie's messages for some minutes, she took out her phone and checked her messages. She s

Hazel felt a surge of excitement and nervousness as she walked into Gerald's company. She had decided to surprise him with a visit and a lunch date. She hoped that he would be happy to see her and that he would appreciate her gesture. "Good morning madam. I am Hazel." Hazel greeted as she entered. "Good morning, Hazel. Well, I am sorry that I am the one to attend to you today. The one who used to be the receptionist here has not been available, that's why I am in charge. So, tell me how may I be of help?" The receptionist asked. "Oh, it's fine. If you hadn't even mentioned it, I wouldn't know that you ain't the receptionist here. Anyways, I am Gerald's fiancee. I am here to meet him." Hazel said, smiling brightly. "Oh, I am so sorry. You're welcome. Actually, Gerald is currently in a meeting with the investors. You can take a seat and wait for him. He should be done soon." The receptionist told her, pointing at the bench. "Thank you." Hazel said nervously and sat down, scanning th
