Chapter 121
Chapter 121 When Zeke had been called for a meeting with the other department heads, he was not surprised at all. It has been a while since they had that meeting. Every once in a while, though not so often, the department heads would be called for a meeting, and they would discuss how they had helped their departments advance and how much they had advanced. It was always a long meeting, full of discussion from everyone, including the person that headed the meeting. The meeting was always headed by Hammond Krafth. The surprising thing to him was when he got to the meeting and he found out it was going to be led by Natalie. He had not seen her in the longest time. He had always tried, though not consciously to avoid her when they were at work. This was ever since they both had a failed relationship. Ever since he had gone over to the other side though, he had always tried his best to avoid her at their workplace too. Now, this was a conscious action from him.

Chapter 122
Chapter 122 Zeke was calm. At least nothing would happen today. He was just being paranoid earlier. That was what he told himself. In his mind, he just wanted the meeting to be over. He did not like being in proximity to Natalie. It was dangerous for him and also torturous. The meeting seemed like it was finally drawing to its end. After the discussion they all had been having was over, it was time for the meeting to end. It seemed like it was going to be a pleasurable end to the meeting for Zeke. Though not short, the meeting was not too long. Zeke had been seriously time conscious and anxious throughout the meeting. However, all these changed at the end of the meeting when Natalie spoke. “After the meeting, each of you needs to come to my office, one by one. I need to tell you things that are going to benefit each of your departments. This information was prepared individually by Miss Krafth. After you explain to me how things at your departments have b

Chapter 123
Chapter 123 Zeke did not want to have any issues or be actively involved with Clement Argent, the devil's incarnate. Even though he did not like what he was doing, he still preferred the way in which he was just passively working for Clement. He did not want it to be more than that. So, he had made sure he was always focused on his work, and he did not fail to do anything the correct way, so that he would not draw unnecessary attention to himself. All his works were done to near perfection. But today, all that was in the seeming past. Zeke was not in the least focused. His gaze was fistant, as if he was thinking about something that had drawn away all his attention. Even though his workers were surprised and a little bit worried, they still did not ask any questions. They were loyal and obedient, so they did not ask him any questions. They just trusted that he would be alright really soon. For Zeke, it was really torturing, waiting for Natalie to call him up.l, and

Chapter 124
Chapter 124 Everything Zeke was thinking about had seemingly flown over his head at that point. The persistent and repetitive sound his steps were making helped him to concentrate and hone his mind. He was going to pass through this meeting with Natalie without making a fool of himself. He knew this was a good thing. Now, he was more calm and not as worried as before, as he stepped over and stopped at the front of her office. He got to Natalie's door and knocked lightly. He heard that sensual voice that had once been a joy giver to him, “Come in," she said. Zeke opened the door and walked in calmly. Zeke opened the door and looked up. He saw that same face that had caused his heart to flutter once upon a time.She was looking straight at him. That beautiful face, though older, but also more mature. Her beauty has not decreased at all. In fact if anything, age had just served as a way that had served to increase her beauty. Natalie had a slight smile on her f

Chapter 125
Chapter 125 It was because she loved him then, that was what had made her learn as much about it as she could. Now, all what she was still saying were things she could still remember from what she had learnt back then. She started feeling pretty relaxed and chatty with Zeke as she used to be in the past.However,she suddenly remembered something important which she immediately placed on the forefront of her mind. It was not to allow her mind to wander about while chatting with Zeke after all these while, and also not to lose herself since she had him in her office for strictly professional reasons. Zeke had also easily relaxed into the discussion with Natalie. It had been a long time since they talked so it seemed like he had forgotten how easy it was to talk to her. In fact, he had forgotten why he liked her in the first place, but this served as a reminder. Even though it had been a while since they both talked, they found it easy to ease into their conversatio

Chapter 126
Chapter 126 After learning about most of what had happened, Juliet sat in silence for a while, then she had asked Natalie a very funny question. She said, “Natalie, out of everyone you talked to personally, who do you think is the most likely to be the spy?" Natalie was shocked when she heard this question. Her mouth was left open for a while, and she did not know when, but she had put her hand on her head, as if in retrospect of what had happened during the day. Her brain went through all the meetings she had today, and details of each of them played back in her head including the one she had with Zeke. She could not bring herself to put up names for Juliet. But after a while, she did. There were some people that just seemed out of place and frankly, they acted quite suspicious when they were talking to her. After thinking for a while, she named the people she thought could be the spies. Of course, Juliet listened in silence. She was also a very smart woman.

Chapter 127
Chapter 127 The memo that was sent to them by their own spy at Oscorp lay in front of Juliet. Of course, it was not sent immediately when he got to know who the spy was. Oscorp has been really security alert of late. He also did not understand why. But, that just meant he had to be more careful before he was able to send out the memo, and he was finally able to do that after two weeks. Juliet picked the memo up. She had opened it up, with Natalie in front of her. Natalie was trying to tell from Juliet's expression who the spy was. But, she could not tell at all. She saw Juliet pause as she read the name on the memo they got. It seemed like it was a shocking name, however Natalie was still uncertain. Natalie wondered who it might be. She could not read much from Juliet's facial expression. It was the pause that was mostly prominent.natalie just kept silent. She wanted to ask, but did not want to seem impatient. She knew she would find out the name really soon, sh

Chapter 128
Chapter 128 Zeke was the last person Natalie could even think of, who would do something like that, and now this had happened. It was almost unbelievable to her. She sat in silence, her brain trying to process what she had just seen. Because of the silence in the room, it somehow sounded like her head was an engine. Cog wheels were moving around in her head in the silence. Sounding as fast and loud as the silence allowed. Juliet sat with her in silence mostly focused on how she was processing it. How she felt and all. It was a while before Natalie's eyes came back into focus, as she was lost in her own world of imagination. After a while, Natalie looked up from where she stood. She had not sat down since she got inside Juliet's office. She was standing up when she got inside the office, and had been waiting for Juliet to check the memo then pass it over to her to check who it was, or just tell her who the person was. Natalie had not for once thought about the pos

Chapter 129
Chapter 129 Of course, this time, there was no way Natalie could protect him from what was coming to him. She steeled her mind and said what she thought about. “You've forgotten about the other workers who would be locked in the department with him too. This would likely not be exactly suspicious to Zeke actually. Even though we do not know what level his paranoia has reached. But, I don't want to set off any other person in the company. Especially if there is another spy there when we are taking Zeke in.” Even if they had caught the high ranking spy in the headquarters, they could not be so certain there was no one else that was a spy working under Zeke's department. "I think we can still make use of Zeke when we arrest him,” Juliet said. “We just have to make sure no one else knows of it, so it would not be known to Oscorp that we know about him, and he would just be our own spy.” Natalie heard what Juliet had said, and again was astounded as to how smart

Chapter 130
Chapter 130 Natalie's head has been bent over ever since she heard what Juliet had started asking of her. It seemed like she was pondering on whether she would be able to do it. She had no doubt she would be able to convince Zeke to work for the Krafth again. The problem was that she had to let go of any previous relationship they had, and even the one that seemed like it wanted to start budding up. Natalie could not deny it . She was sure Zeke would also be unable to deny it too. There was something between them. This spark. It made it so that even though they had not talked in a very long time, they still both felt connected. Thinking about it now in retrospect, Natalie could not really understand her reason for trying to stay away from Zeke in the past. She remembered it though, she had to stop seeing him in the office because it made people look down on him more at that time. He has just become the head of his department, and there were still talks of ne
