‘What? One hundred bucks, for an apartment like this? That’s unbelievable’The man looked dumbfounded. However the apartment did not belong to him, so he couldn’t finalise the rent. “Mrs Edward, I’m actually surprised to hear your offer. However, this house isn’t mine. I need to check it with the landlord of the house.”He walked out of the room with his phone on the pretext of making a phone call. Taking the opportunity, he winked at Darren to ask for his opinion. Darren understood his gestures and agreed without hesitation. Mia was a little nervous. After all she knew her offer was definitely not acceptable. A few minutes later, the realtor returned with a smile. “The landlord has agreed.” Mia’s mouth popped open in shock. She tried slashing the price but didn’t think the landlord would actually agree. She blinked at Darren. Darren coughed and walked up to her “ what’s wrong?” “I don’t think this house is an ordinary haunted house. I think something extremely terrible must

Chapter Twenty Two.
Delicious smell of food wafted in the Air as soon as Darren entered the house. “Why did you come back early today?” Mia casts a sidelong glance at him and continues to toss the spaghetti in the pan. The apron accentuated her alluring figure, her curvy bum bobbed as she moved around. The bow tie on her back seemed to tease Darren, as if hinting at him to open and peek at the tempting gift inside. Darren’s eyes darkened as he felt hot in his throat. He unbuttoned his collar and went straight to the fridge to get a bottle of water. “I was off duty earlier,” he said after gulping down the water. He looked at her floral apron and touched the hem. “ it’s this an apron? It can’t even cover your thighs.” It was more like sexy lingerie. “Stop pulling my apron, I got it at a discount. It’s beautiful, right?” Mia glared at him and continued to cut the vegetables without uttering a word. Darren grinned and put the spaghetti bowl on the dining table. Several design sketches were scattered

“Thirty Thousand dollars?” Mia stared at her laptop screen, her mouth wide open. She quickly typed a message to the client, her fingers flying over the keyboard. This was going to be her first big client ever since her graduation. Given the amount of offer they had made, she was expecting a heap of struck instructions she would have to abide by. “Excuse me. May I know whether you are a gentleman or a lady?” The website played as a bridge between clients and freelance designers. The clients had the option to use their real name or not, but most of them did not bother setting up a profile. Most of the profiles in the listing were nothing but the default grey icon, with no way to tell the clients gender. “Male”Came the client's reply. “I see, do you have specific requirements regarding the design sir?” Mia leaned forward and propped her chin on one hand, bracing herself for a long list of demands. It didn’t take long for the client to write back, “I have seen the designs you pos

“Did I disturb you? I will try to keep my voice down.” Startled, mia clamped her mouth with her hand and looked him apologetically. Darren shook his head and walked to her bed. Then, he slumped into it and inhaled her sweet fragrance. Propping his head on his arm, Darren closed his eyes. “ what happened why are you so happy?” He asked casually. “Don’t lie on my bed Darren,” Mia’s cheek puffed as she tried to pull his arm. He was tall and heavy. Finally she gave up and sat on the chair beside the desk. “I met a wealthy generous client who asked to design for him. I just submitted my draft and got paid. Darren opened his eyes and looked at her grinning with joy, “ then you don’t have to go for the drug trail, that’s good.” Mia smiled she rested her chin and the palm of head and poked the lamp on the desk with one finger. “ why don’t you ask me how much I have earned?” “I don't need your money, I don’t care how much you have that’s your business. I only wish for you not to go

Chapter Twenty Five.
Darren’s face darkened. His didn’t believe the restaurant that belonged to the Preston group had such a poor service. The workers disrespected the diners. He wondered how Micheal managed his subordinates? He crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the manager, “what makes you think that we wouldn’t order food? You blindly believe their words without listening to us.”The argument caught everyone’s attention. They stopped eating and gawked at them. Several passerby outside were also peeking into the restaurant through the glass door. The manager broke out in a cold sweat, after all the quarrel wuld affect the restaurant reputation. If the media covered the news, people would not come to the restaurant again. “I’ve inquired from the two waitresses and they said you two were causing trouble out of nothing, how dare you question me?” The restaurant manager grew desperate and anxious to resolve the problem as soon as possible. He picked up the walkie-talkie on his chest and sai

Mia finally snapped out of her astonishment when the owner of the restaurant left with his staff. She quietly stared at Darren, “ how can you be so calm?” She wondered. “Daren! What just happened? Why are the owner of this restaurant nice to you? Besides, he didn’t prove the issue to find out what really happened. How can he be so sure that the waitresses were rude to us?” Mia fired one question after the other. “He didn’t have to question. High end restaurants always handle problems like these with care because they can’t afford to lose thier reputation. The manager and waitresses were thoughtless, but the owner knew what to do. After all, losing even one customer would impact on thier buisness because reputation is their biggest asset.” Darren explained. Bitting her lips, Mia nodded in understanding. Darren’s words made sense. “Speaking of which……”she grinned and playfully nodged his shoulders. “You were domineering like you were his boss.” “Gangster like us, had to put on
