"Eat," Gabriel gestured to Archer,Archer frowned and looked to Lydia, "I thought you said you told him not to make a fuss?"Lydia looked bashful,"It didn't work,"Archer laughed a little and shook his head, he looked at Charlene who was eating quietly, "Charlene, are you alright?"She nodded but he didn't look convinced, not having the energy to deal with drama right now,"What are you thinking so hard about?" Gabriel asked,Charlene smiled, "I am thinking about a case, I have a strange client who I am yet to come to terms with his case. Everything looks fishy,""What about him?" Lydia asked,Charlene shook her head, "I am not at liberty to discuss my clients,"Lydia nodded, "That's okay, I was just wondering where we could help,"It made Charlene more confused, she wanted to help him. Does Lydia know that she slept with Archer? The guilt was beginning to eat at her."Same with me, I had a very disturbing meeting today,""Oh yeah, the one you wanted to tell me about?" Charlene asked,

Three days later,Roberts stormed into Charlene's office, his face twisted into a scowl. Charlene sighed and prepared herself for the worse.He waved a piece of paper in her face, "What is the meaning of this rubbish?""Meaning of what?""You told Daniel that you won't be representing him?" he asked,"Oh that, yes I did. I carefully read through and the winning rate is very low, I cannot risk it,""What do you mean? You are the best one to help him,"She shook her head, "Roberts, I understand that you want the best for your client but I am telling you. It is a dead end,""I don't believe you, you have been adamant about not taking the case and now you are telling me you won't try?""I am not putting my career on the line for your friend," Charlene sneered,"My friend, I don't know what gave you that idea but he is someone who is going to pump in a lot of money in this..."Charlene stood up, "Oh cut the crap, do not stand there and lie to me like I am a child. Why do you think he wants

Charlene stood up immediately,"What are you doing here?"Daniel kept smiling as he shrugged, "That is not a way to welcome a client,""I don't care. Please leave,""Now, why the hell would I do that? You said you will get back to me on my case,"Charlene scoffed, the look on his face was deranged. She wondered if he had a hard time comprehending her words."I already told you, I am not working on it,""That is not an answer I want to hear, Charlene. Look at me, I am not a man people usually say no to,""Yeah, is that why those girls went missing?" she snapped,His grin widened but he was shocked, his eyes got wider. Charlene prayed within her that he leaves before Archer comes to her office. The last thing she wanted was to witness a brawl."I see you did your research,"That made her mad, her nostrils flared."Is there a reason why you people are surprised that I would do that before I accept a case?" she asked,"Maybe, we were hoping you were one of the dumb ones,""Sorry to disapp

Archer was surprised but he didn't say no to the kiss. He welcomed her touch. He thought she was going to be mad about that but this was okay too.Charlene broke off the kiss, "That was hot,"He shrugged, "I was going to apologize but it looks like it's not needed.""It's not, what is in the bag?"Archer looked at her desk, "I got you lunch so I can watch you work since I am not allowed to,"She rolled her eyes, "You brought food, so I guess you get a pass,"She kissed him again and he deepened it, that was how Roberts found them."So this is why you refused to take his case?" he asked, they broke apart and Charlene had a guilty expression on her face.Roberts looked closely and blinked, he looked at Archer then back to Charlene, "Isn't that your client?" he asked,Charlene's heart dropped, "He was,""So you can fuck this one to represent him but you won't give Daniel a blow job to do the same?""Watch your fucking mouth,"Archer snapped.Roberts rolled his eyes, "You are not standing

Archer stayed home the next day, his mind preoccupied with everything around him. They all felt out of control and it bothered him. The conversation between him and Madison kept replaying in his mind, Archer sighed and leaned back on his bed as the memory replayed itself. His eyes bulged out of its socket as soon as she said those damn words, "What? No! You cannot mean that," Madison shook her head with a smile, "I do, I want a chance to start afresh, and being with Davide would give me that," Archer furrowed his brows, "Are you leaving because you love him or because you want everything to go back to normal? Because I can assure you that it will," "I am trying to see where the relationship would go," "Madison, you don't move to another country because of a relationship you are not sure of, you move because you are sure and you want it," "You don't understand," "No, you don't understand," Archer countered back, "I do not want you to leave regardless of how tense things are be

"Archer, what are you doing here?"" Madison asked as soon as she opened her door. Archer studied her, she appears to be fine but her eyes were swollen and it wasn't from sleeping. He barged in through her door and faced her. "We need to talk," he said, "You should have called," "So I can give you time to clean your tears?" Archer taunted, "Don't be asshole, you can leave if you are going to be a dick." Madison scowled at him but he scowled right back until her shoulder's slumped. "If you have come to yell at me then save it, I am not in the mood to hear it," she sniffed, "I am not here to yell at you, I am here to tell you that I am not going to take your company. You can give it to someone else," Her jaw dropped and she squinted her eyes, "What?" "You heard me, that's all I came here to sa "No, you have to take it. There is no one I trust to handle it," "Guess you have to stay and run it yourself," Her face hardened, "Don't be ridiculous, Archer. I am an adult," "That's

Madison gulped when they got to the house, she walked ahead of Archer. She wanted to give herself so much time to get her lies together but after moments of trying, there was nothing.She was so tired of keeping secrets, she entered the house just for Gabriel to gather her in his arms."Madison," he said.Just her name from his lips were enough to send her into tears, she sobbed hard against him and he didn't complain once, he stood there and comforted her.When she got herself together, Archer was handing her a cup of coffee."I am sorry I made a mess,"Gabriel ignored that, "How are you?"Madison shrugged, she could be better but she wasn't about to tell him that."It's okay if you don't want to tell us but if it will okay with you, you should. It would make us see what we are dealing with,""No," Archer shook his head, "There is no other choice, she is going to tell us everything and not leave a single thing out,"Madison was shocked at the aggresive way he spoke to her but he was

The loud knocking made Madison grit her teeth, she was so pissed.She could bet it was one of their spies sent to remind her that her time is ticking.She ripped the door open and was startled to see Lydia there. Her eyes widened when she realized she was here to do what Archer told her to do."I cannot believe you, Madison. You were just going to leave without saying anything to me?" Lydia said as she shouldered her way in to Madison's house.Madison sighed, they were doing this now.Lydia crossed her arms across her chest, "Well?" she demanded."Who told you?""Does it matter who did? So you were never going to tell me?"Madison started to shake her head, "It doesn't matter,""So all that crap about being the friend I needed was not real? You just wanted an opportuinity to be close to Archer?"Madison opened her mouth in shock, "What? No!""Do not lie to me, you preached all that to me just to pretend that I don't exist or not important enough to be told of your departure?"Madison

Archer pocketed his phone and faced the grim faces of the strategic team."So, will someone explain what's going on?""There is nothing to explain," Eric said with a wince,"I am sure that's not true. I was out of the office in less than week and you have lost deals?"They all looked down ashamed, "Yeah,"Archer banged his hand on the table loudly, startling them. "Someone better start talking or this will be the first mass firing done in this season,"They all panicked, Charles stood up instantly, "I will take responsibility for this, sir."Archer raised a brow at him and scoffed, "You are expecting a thank you? It is your job as leader to take responsibility, now start explaining."Charles was uneasy because he had never seen Archer that way, he looked at the others to know if they noticed it too and a nod from Eric confirmed that."Well?""It is not our fault, we were all in the process when someone swooped in and took it from right under our noses,"Archer narrowed his eyes, "Walk

Archer went straight from the cemertary to his house.He was no longer in the mood to see anybody, they could blame his brother for that. But after spending time with his grandather, Archer had come to the conclusion that he had a long chat to himself and decided he was going to try to mend things with Arthur.
