The mere look into her eyes was causing all his anger to vanish and he wished she could apologize.

The frightened Jane quickly turned around but there was no one behind her. She turned to face the wall but the shadow was gone."What in the world?" She mumbled with her eyes widened in terror.She began to take fast steps back to the park. Jane was forced to stop moving when she sensed a movement behind her.

Ken replied and folded his arms across his chest.She was expecting him to leave the office. She had felt glad that the phone call was timely but Ken remained rooted to his spot.Jane sighed and slipped into a corner. She responded to the call and began to speak in low tunes.Ken placed two fingers on his lips while he impatiently waited for her. He doesn't care about the phone call. She should get on with the phone call and return to the spot so they can finish their conversation.Jane turned around to stare at Ken. His impatient eyes were fixed on her.

She moved closer to him.Ken turned to her with a look that says "You are safe!"She blinked at him.The driver continued wheeling the car down the straight path while Ken kept his gaze fixed on the route ahead.Trailing them behind was a black sports car with dark glasses following the limo, closely behind.

It was a few minutes to 9 am and he was concerned that Ken might be running late for work."Why don't you come inside? There's a grocery list on the bar stand. Maybe you can help me get all the items I outlined." Ken replied.Ray was stunned. He began to take steps toward the house and was soon stammering. "And work?
