"Meeting with Klaus?!" Linda exclaimed widely after setting her gaze on the message, reading it repeatedly."I thought it shouldn't be this fast.""We need to talk, everyone," he gulped down the coffee at a stretch heading to the sitting room immediately. "Draco!" he called loudly from the hallways, his voice echoing to the living room, putting everyone on their toes."Boss, any problem?!" Draco had stomped to his feet at the sound of his name."Yes Draco, Klaus messaged. Do you think I am ready for it? If in case he calls for a drink? I didn't think the meeting would come this quickly." Edwin's voice was braced in nervousness."I really can't talk about that, boss. But I'm sure Klsus would call you for a drink soon, as long as you are his favourite…" he finished but immediately included after realising that exactly was going through Edwin's mind. "You need not panic, boss, your stomach is used to alcohol already."Draco changed his stance before he furthered on. "You might not be a g

"Guys, something is wrong, but then I don't want you asking me if I know what's wrong, cause I don't. For now, I can't tell." Tony repeatedly checked over and over again putting the rest in confusion."Tony, check this damn thing," Xander repeated, slightly hitting his fist against his palm."If you will be so patient, I will sort this out," Tony warned without staring."We are waiting, Tony." Linda took a seat patiently staring, even though repeatedly stomping her foot against the ground.Tony busily having his fingers clatter on the keyboard soon voiced. "I've found it. All along, it was only a misconception, but it's solved now.""Thank goodness." Linda stopped hitting the ground, and Xander became patient as well."Now, back to track. Linda, here are the pictures. I need you to choose which of these belongs to your dad's lawyer."It didn't take long before she pointed it out. "Here it is.""It's this guy?" Tony stared suspiciously at the picture."Yea, it is. It's really the guy."

Upon reaching out to the door, Kendel’s jaw dropped. “Barron! You!” He pointed to them one after the other in surprise, after assuring Alaric wasn't with them anymore. He definitely needed to make it real.“Barron! What are you both doing here? How did you even get my house, are you stalking me?” Kendel was amazed.“Stalking you?” Both of them turned to face one another and scoffed before saying again. “Stalking you, you say. We are not stalking you. We only wanted to bring you some gift, properly welcome you into the gang.” Barron explained.“But how would we have done that when all you do was to hang out with Klaus 24/7? You don't even want to get used to us, so we decided to find where you live, and here we are.”Kendel faked sighing deeply and concerned even though he knew they were lying. “Alright then. I guess it's fine guys I… I don't know how the gang works yet, and… I barely hang around Klaus. Yeah, he did ask me to get used to him., but then, I must be honest, I'm scared of

"Alaric, what do you think about the boss and Linda? I think both of them are in love." Draco poured himself a glass of water before he resumed his meal.Pausing his meal, with a half-filled mouth, he voiced. "I don't know, but as a growing man, I can say Linda is in love. And as for the boss, na na na… I can't say anything about it."Draco took a spoonful of the meal. "I think the boss has completely fallen out of love and sealed his mind to having a woman in his life. Even if Linda loves him, I think she would have to go through a lot before she can get into his heart.""Yeah, that's why the proverb, slow and steady wins the race, exists." Alaric chipped in, focusing on his meal.Draco paused on his meal for a while, gazing at Alaric. "Alaric, what about you?""What about me?" Alaric sipped from his glass of water before continuing."Yeah, I've never seen or heard you talk about a wife, or kids or family… Or even a girlfriend," Draco whispered softly, but Alaric smiled slyly instead

"Guys, you haven't told me a thing as regards getting the lawyer? You both have been moody all day, not talking to either Perry or me. What's going on? I deserve to know." Linda loudly questioned Xander and Tony upon her entry into Tony's room."It's nothing, we ar…e still on it so far…" Xander replied, staring at Tony."Is this true Tony? You guys are like this or is there something that you both aren't telling me? Something I need to know?"Tony turned to face Linda. "It's just as said, Linda. Prefer you stay out of it, and let us both handle it. When we get to the point where you need to come in, we will call on y…""No, guys… I'm nervous. I c…" she used when she realised both of them were keeping track of time, and on such short notice, Xander voiced to say."I think we should get going so we don't miss out on the target.""Wait, a minute… Is it the lawyer? What happened? Are you guys not able to get him?""Xander, let's go," Tony said emotionlessly.Linda was confused, she didn'
