"Do you know if she mentioned something about being followed? Or maybe she suspected something like that?" Derek asked the man. He was still in the middle of getting the truth about the matter."How was I supposed to know? We never had that type of interaction. The only interaction we had was a scripted one and that's all."Derek was sure of one thing now. Catherine knew all along. She knew she was being monitored in some way so she decided to give out an act that would spice things up.The problem now was that Derek wasn't able to tell what angle she was coming from for actually doing what she did.He couldn't tell if she did it to get attention on her or away from her… Or perhaps attention away from somebody else.Derek wished he could figure that part out but it wasn't something that he could. He would have to look into more proofs to actually make sense of this new information."Just so you know, you agreeing to something like that didn't do you any good. And I wonder what made yo

"How did you get that information that you sent me?" Edna first asked once she heard the beep that indicated she was connected with Derek."I made my findings," Derek simply told her."How? You want to tell me that you just did a mild research and then got this fact?" she asked."No.""What's wrong with you? Spill already.""I met with Richard."Perhaps it was the reason he was acting all reserved, Edna thought. It would make sense to her why Derek didn't want to say anything at first about who he communicated with just to get the needed info."When?""About an hour ago," Derek said."Where?""What's with all the questions, Edna? Do you want to know what I got from him or you want me to detail how I met him and all of that?"Edna sighed. "I don't even know," she said. "Just get on with it. What did Richard tell you?"Her eyes lingered about the park that was getting lesser in terms of the number of people that were around. Dusk was about to hit and that was enough to get everyone leav

"Sorry I asked to meet with you on such short notice," Derek apologized to the lady in front of him. "I could have texted you but I don't think it's safe anymore.""It's a good thing you mentioned that because I was about to ask you why you didn't just tell me what you want via the phone." That was the response he got from the lady.The lady was none other than Nadia. He had summoned her to meet with him after thinking through his options of finding a good way out of his predicament.She wasn't his first choice but she seemed like the most feasible option. And what was left now was for him to make good use of that option."So what's the issue that you so badly had to call to see me?" Nadia wanted to know as she sat uprightly to listen to what Derek had to say. All along she was sitting very relaxed because of her nonchalance of being there with him."The first thing you need to know is that I'm not trying to blackmail you this time around…""Oh good. Then I think I don't have any busi

"Still nothing?" Derek asked, a little surprised a while after the call he put through to the man got picked."Nothing," Marcus admitted over the phone. "I've tried and tried but nothing seems forthcoming. I won't lie to you, it's a dead end.""I thought you have friends that are into stuff like this. Can't they help us out?"Derek was already frustrated as he asked that question. He hoped to get a better answer from his friend because that was the only way he could actually feel better to hold this conversation."And you think they didn't already try?" Marcus asked him. "Derek, I already told you that the line was like an encrypted one. It was going to take a lot to knock it down.I put in a lot of effort into knocking it down. My people too. But nothing came out of it. Just some bunch of nonsense that wasn't going to be useful."With his hand running through his hair, Derek stood up to think. He hoped to get a better flow of thoughts from that point as he did that but it seemed stan

The first thing Derek did as soon as Gina went out of his office was shut down his laptop. Then he stood up from his seat and began to head out of his office.His destination was Gina's office where he hoped he would be able to talk things out with her. Even though it hasn't been for long, he was already fed up with staying away from her.He wanted to patch things up with her. So when he got in front of her office, he didn't bother knocking because he guessed she might totally ignore him when she found out it was him at the door.Instead, he pushed the door open to come in contact with the lady staring at him directly from behind her desk.Her expression was neutral and he was glad that he didn't have to deal with an angry looking woman as he wasn't the best in that aspect."Gina, I need to talk to you," he first said as he stood by the door which he managed to close while not breaking eye contact with her."What do you want?" Her question was solid without beating about the bush."To

"So, I'm not the one you're suspecting now, right?" Gina asked for reaffirmation. She wanted to be sure about where she stood before getting on further with the conversation."I wasn't necessarily suspecting you, Gina. To be honest, I was just mad that I got into that kind of situation. And maybe I did suspect you a bit. I thought you might have been working with my wife into getting something like that that can be used against me."Derek explained that to the hearing of the lady. His expression was neutral as he waited for her to understand what he just said.Gina shook her head, disappointment written on her face. "I will admit that coming onto you was a mistake. But I would never make that mistake of betraying you. I don't understand why you would think so low of me," she said while still expressing disappointment."I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking when I acted that way and that's why I already apologized."Gina says nothing to him for a while. She self reflected within that time frame

When he arrived at the manager's office, he was immediately directed to the conference room by the secretary.It was strange because his assistant didn't specify what type of meeting it would be with the manager. But it didn't expect it to be a conference type of meeting when it was just a discussion between the both of them. Except it was more than that.Getting to the conference room, he felt there was something off about the place. That thought lingered in his head even as he proceeded to push the door into it open.Inside the room, it wasn't just the manager that was there. The assistant manager as well as the supervisor sat in the room.At the end of the table was a man whom he had never set his eyes on before. The man was well-suited and had this weird aura surrounding him.Ignoring that, Derek acknowledged the manager and the other officials before taking a seat."Sorry, I'm late. I just received your message," he told them."It's okay, Mr. McKay. We were just discussing with M

"Who is Eugene Leviathan?" Derek asked that question in such an aggressive manner that his assistant thought for a moment that he was annoyed at him.Derek was walking too fast as they both headed back to his office together. All through the meeting, his assistant had stayed outside the conference room."Eugene Leviathan?" the assistant questions him back."That's what I said.""Eugene Leviathan is a district manager—"Derek cuts him off, "I know that already. But who exactly is he other than being a manager at the Jackson and Sons Consortium?""Do you want me to provide you information on his private life?"Staring at his assistant briefly before looking ahead, he asked, "Do you have it?""I do," the assistant said almost quietly."Then give it to me.""Mr. Eugene Leviathan, from my findings, is the youngest child of the chairman of Jackson and Sons. According to reports, he became a district manager about five to six years ago and has been influential in the Consortium maintaining i
