They exchanged greetings, and Armand asked, "What can I help you with, Vanessa?"Her countenance changed, and she appeared unsure if she should speak. "May I have permission to speak freely, sir?" she asked, her voice laced with caution.Armand's expression turned encouraging. "Of course, Vanessa. You can tell me anything."Her countenance changed again, and she appeared more confident. "Thank you, sir. I wanted to discuss something... delicate." She paused, collecting her thoughts before continuing.Armand gestured to a chair, "Please, sit down, Vanessa."She did so, taking a deep breath before speaking. "I wanted to talk to you about two of the thieves we caught last night, Bright and Daniel."Ar

The barista's eyes widened in terror as she realized she was talking to her boss. Her face turned pale, and her voice trembled as she tried to apologize. "I-I'm s-so sorry, Mr. Armstrong! I didn't mean to...to..."As she stuttered, her hands shook, and she accidentally knocked over a cup of coffee, spilling it all over the counter. "Oh no! I'm s- so sorry! I'm such a clumsy fool!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with panic.She quickly grabbed a towel to clean up the mess, but her hands were shaking so much that she ended up spreading the spill even further. "I'm s-so sorry, Mr. Armstrong! Please forgive me!" she pleaded, her eyes brimming with tears.Armand's expression softened, and he calmly said, "It's okay, it's just an accident. Take a deep breath and calm down."

Armand's expression turned from calm to shock, his eyes widening in fear as his tattoo glowed brighter. His mind raced with questions: "How is this possible? The tattoo is only visible to me, a sign of my time travel. Does the god of time want me to complete my mission now? Has the boy also been sent back in time? How do I explain this to Carla? She's never seen it before and isn't supposed to know about my true identity?"His thoughts swirled in chaos, Armand's eyes darting between the boy and Carla, unsure of what to do next.

Carla walked up to Armand, a sly grin spreading across her face as she pulled out a scarf from her pocket. "What's that?" Armand asked, his curiosity piqued."A blindfold," Carla replied, her eyes gleaming with mischief.Armand's eyes narrowed, "Who's it meant for?"Carla let out a throaty laugh, "You, of course! What a silly question!"Armand vehemently rejected the idea, "No way, Carla. I am not going to let you blindfold me."But Carla persisted, her persuasion wearing down Armand's resistance. Finally, he relented, and Carla eagerly tied the blindfold around his eyes.She took his hand, leading him through the darkness.

Armand asked, "The meaning of what?" As he turned around to calmly face Mr. Peters. He stood tall, his eyes locked onto Mr. Peters, his expression serene.Mr. Peters' face was red with rage, his eyes bulging, and his veins visible beneath his skin. His body was tense, his fists clenched, and his jaw clenched. He looked like he was about to explode.Just then, Daniel hurried into the office and greeted Armand, "Good morning, Sir!"Mr. Peter repeated his question, his voice rising in anger, "What is the meaning of this?!"Armand feigned confusion, "What are you talking about, Mr. Peter?"Mr. Peters condescendingly pointed at Daniel, "Him! You've appointed him as my assistant?!"A fake look of realization dawned on Armand's face, "Oh. Well, I have appointed Daniel to serve as your assistant, the same way you were assistant general manager to Aaron."Armand's tone was calm and matter-of-fact, but his eyes gleamed with a hint of mischief, as if he knew he was stirring up a hornet's nest.M

Lily laughed and said, "My bad." She then proceeded to explain, "Rose is my co-worker.”A look of understanding dawned on Armand's face. He nodded and then asked, "And what decision did she make that I supposedly supported?"Lily continued, "Well, Rose was nervous about telling her family and friends that she's having a baby out of wedlock, but I told her that you said it was okay as long as they're in love. And she really appreciated your support."Armand's eyes widened, and he said, "Oooh." He looked amused and slightly embarrassed, realizing that he had inadvertently become a part of someone else's personal conversation.Lily asked Armand, "Do you want your coffee the same as last time?"Armand nodded, "Yes, please."Lily got to work preparing his coffee, and as she brought out a cup, she said, "You know, Mr. Armstrong, I think you need a P.A."Armand's expression turned confused, "What for?"Lily shrugged her shoulders, "So you wouldn't have to come down and get your coffee yourse

Armand yelled.They were sitting inside Armand's car in the parking lot at D'premium branch.Aaron had arrived at work earlier than normal and he had called Vanessa and Armand to fill them in as usual."I can't believe it!

Armand said after a while."Everything ends today." Vanessa said."Everything ends today."

Mr Black just needs to think outside of the box to see it," a hint of mischief in his eyes.Ben was able to stifle his laugh when he heard that statement, Kelly on the other hand couldn't help the smirk that formed on her face.

Aaron strolled into the company. He was just about to enter his work area when he was stopped by Mr Black."Good morning Sir." Aaron said. However, he got no response."I completed Janet's task yesterday. You can go and confirm if you'd like. Also, I know the incident yesterday must have painted me in a bad light, but I want to assure you, that is not who I am. It was an accident, I am not clumsy and what happened yesterday will never repeat itself again."Mr Black just kept on staring at him, so he asked "Can I go now?" He didn't feel comfortable under the manager's intense scrutinizing gaze."Aaron, what are you really doing here?" Mr Black finally asked."I beg your pardon?" Aaron replied."I said, what are you really doing here?" The manager asked again.Aaron's palms grew clammy as his manager's piercing gaze bore into him. The air seemed to thicken as he fumbled for words, anxiety tightening his throat. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead, betraying the composed facade

Aaron and Gloz walked silently behind the officer. Aaron was calm because he knew who the visitor was. On the other hand, Gloz felt confused. Who would want to visit him here? It could not be his siblings, could it? He asked internally, but quickly dismissed that thought. He didn't want to get his hopes high.Just as they arrived at the door of the visitor's room, the officer who was leading them, Officer Daniels gestured for Aaron and Gloz to go in. The heavy metallic clang of the cell door echoed behind them as they entered the small room. Gloz's eyes darted nervously, taking in the cold atmosphere."Alright, Gloz, you've got 15 minutes with your visitor. Make it count," Officer Daniels said, his tone gruff but not unkind. He shot a stern glance at Gloz, who stood by, a silent spectator to the scene.Aaron nodded with gratitude in his eyes. Gloz shifted uncomfortably, aware of the limited time allowed for this interaction with his yet to be seen visitor."Remember, Gloz, Keep it

"But how do we connect it to him?" Mrs. Armstrong asked."I don't know yet, but we'll figure it out." Armand answered."What about the press?" Vanessa inquired."The press?" Armand asked."Yes," she began tentatively, "how do you plan to deal with the press?"Armand looked up, his gaze meeting Vanessa's concerned eyes. Taking a deep breath, he leaned forward and clasped his hands together. "Vanessa, I've been careful about who knows the truth. As of now, only my mother, the attending doctors, the police and I are aware that my father has been shot.""You've notified the police?" Vanessa asked."Yes, I did that not long after we got here." Armand answered.Vanessa nodded, still anxious. "But what if someone from the hospital talks? These situations have a way of leaking, Armand."Armand's voice grew more confident. "I've spoken with the doctors and the hospital staff. They're bound by strict confidentiality. They won't disclose anything to anybody, especially not to the press.

Armand raised his head and followed Vanessa's gaze to the gate of the beach house. A swarm of reporters had gathered, each one armed with cameras and microphones, jostling for position to capture the unfolding scene. They were like a pack of hungry wolves waiting for their prey.Vanessa turned to Armand, her expression a mix of frustration and exasperation. "Can you believe this? We can't even get a moment of peace here!"Armand sighed and tightened his grip on the steering wheel. "I see them. We'll have to deal with it somehow."Vanessa urged Armand to just drive in and ignore the reporters, but he shook his head. "If I do that, they might press themselves into the car, and someone could get hurt."A determined look crossed Armand's face as he made up his mind. "I'll grant them an interview. That might satisfy their curiosity and get them to back off."As they approached the gate, Armand rolled down the window, and a cacophony of questions and camera clicks greeted them. He plas
