The phone had barely rang when she picked immediately."You miss me that much?" he said with a goofy smile."Sure, why won't I? And you? Have you just taken me off your mind like that?"Draco sat at the edge of the bed and then said. "Sure, I miss you. I miss having you around me." "Hmm…" she leaned into the chair, reduced her voice to a messily soft and seductive tone. "Do you want me over? I could be there anytime soon." Connecting the dots immediately, Draco smiled and said.

I will be here to see you lick my feet only then you will be let out." he repeated laughing extensively."We would see who would be crying behind jails very soon." Perry said laughing but before he knew it, Huston was before him, looking into his eyes and then saying."You are too full of yourself, but today I would split you open and bring you down since you speak so highly of yourself."Truth be told, Huston knew Perry but he was one of those that took envy as a very good measure.Since the day he had beheld Perry from afar, he had always thought that someday he was going to bring Perry down.

The secretary responded by bringing out a letter from a pack of files in her hand."What message and from who?" Ciara had her brow raised as she said."I can't say, Mrs Van. The letter seems quite mysterious. I had seen the letter on my table this morning after I had arrived at work, and then I asked other workers, but no one knew who it was.""Why then is there CCTV if that can't help?" The news had raised Ciara's inquisitiveness. "Mrs Van. We did that, we did all of that, yet nothing was seen.""You mean you didn't find the identity of who dropped this on the CCTV footage?" Ciara was confused."We didn't, Mrs Van." A brief silence ensued between them, after which, she slowly began to open the letter."Ma, I don't think you should open it! What if it's a letter bomb?"

Mr Yen said."Sure, Mr Yen, you understand the law better than any of us here. You can share how we can go about it." Edwin the responded calmly."it's simple, boss. I will raise it before the jury and plead that the ban of wanted be lifted from my client.""Are you sure that will work? I don't really trust those law people." Edwin argued."It always works, boss.
