Leo wasn't convinced by her words. He felt like there is another reason why she was acting so nice to him. “She is so transparent.” he said to himself and laughed softly. He suddenly stopped laughing when he thought of a way to make the game more fun. “Why don’t I play along with her?," He smirked. He brought out his phone from his pocket and realized that his schedule is full tomorrow so he has to leave very early tomorrow morning. Leo stood up from the couch and walked to the bed. He wanted to sleep but he needed to take his shower before going to bed. He was feeling too lazy to even take his bath. After a while of hesitating, he finally decided to stand up from the bed and take his shower. While he was in the bathroom, he remembered Mandy. He remembered that he has a more serious thing to do than playing a game with Heaven. He wants Mandy and Scott to go through the same pain they made him go through when they took everything from him. They can't just keep on reaping o
“I mean it’ll make things worse.” Mandy told Scott quietly. The latter was still confused. He couldn't understand what Mandy was trying to tell him. “Explain. What are you tryna say?,” he requested with a very obvious, puzzled look on his face. “I mean those staff members know everything about the company. How are we going to get better staff that understand the company well enough if we send them away?,” Mandy explained carefully. But Scott was still confused. I've actually noticed that these two are actually dumb than I thought. I'd think what Mandy meant was that they couldn't dismiss the staff cause they already know too many secrets about me but guess it's this way... Scott couldn't think of any other good way to sort this company stuff than for them to throw those stupid staffs out of the company and get new employees or shall I say lackeys that know nothing about the company. But after he tried to understand what Mandy was saying to him, he realized that she was rig
Scott felt he was already going just being paranoid because no one from his company has the same signature as the one he saw. So why does he think he has seen the signature before? Why does it look so familiar? Mandy picked the two invitation cards and headed upstairs. The maid in the house came out and cleared the little debris they'd made in the sitting room. When Mandy got to the room, she saw Scott sitting on the bed. He looked like he was deep in thoughts. “What is he thinking about now?” Mandy asked herself and walked closer to him. She sat down beside him and he didn’t notice there was someone beside him. “Scott, are you okay?” Mandy asked him and dropped the invitation on the bed. Am I the only one that feels like she's said those words many times today? He turned to look at her and that’s when he realized there was someone sitting beside him. “I’m fine.” Scott answered and looked away. No matter what, he couldn’t stop himself from thinking about who has a signatur
Sarah lowered her head when she heard the question Mandy asked her. “Y-yes I-I-am fine,” she stuttered, refusing to look up. Mandy was confused by Sarah’s attitude. First, it was her unusual sweaty body and now she is stuttering. She looked at Sarah sharply. Though she is acting suspicious, it’s none of her business. “Have you seen Scott?” Sarah swallowed nervously when she heard this question. She shuddered and looked even more sweaty. But she noticed she was already behaving suspiciously so she decided to control herself. She raised her face to look at Mandy then she smiled. “No, I don't know where he is.” Sarah lied without even blinking. Mandy found Sarah’s smile weird so she gave her a disgusted look. Sarah on the other hand prayed for Mandy not to go inside the kitchen after all she hates the kitchen. But when she noticed that Mandy was walking towards the kitchen, she rushed to her. “Ma’am, do you want me to get you anything from the kitchen?” She immediately asked.
Leo stopped thinking about it. He decided to sleep and ignore those annoying yet painful memories that refuse to leave.**************** The next morning, Heaven was the first to wake up. She went downstairs and told the chef to make Leo’s favorite for breakfast. She is unaware of how much her mother detests that dish. She went back to her room and took her phone. Turning it on, she took a picture again as usual. She used a popular caption: 'My morning face. And immediately she posted the picture, she walked into the bathroom. She seemed very excited about today that she is even confused on why she seems very excited. When she was done taking her bath, she tied a towel around her chest and walked out of the bathroom. She walked to the closet and wore her clothes. Meanwhile, Leo had already woken up as well. He went to the bathroom and washed his face, then he brought out his toothbrush. He brushed his teeth and when he was done, he looked at his face in the mirror. He l
Everyone was stunned by Victoria’s voice. Leo stopped eating and turned to look at her. Heaven removed her hands from covering her face so that she could see what’s going on. James turned to look at his daughter. He was upset by her noise. “What is your problem, Victoria!?” James raised his voice at her for the first time in a while. He wouldn’t have raised his voice if she shouted like that, startling everyone. Victoria was angry because her dad yelled at her without trying to know why she shouted. Leo was more concerned about James' health so he gave him a look trying to tell him to calm down. James understood the look clearly so he tried his best to stay calm. “Dad, you didn’t even bother to hear me out. You didn't even ask me why," Victoria answered. When she noticed James was not interested in what she had to say again, she stood up and walked out of the dining room. Heaven felt bad for her mom because she is the one that told the chef to prepare the egg salad with t
James was a little upset because he felt Leo should have told him immediately instead of making him start shouting at the chef the way he did. “I’m sorry grandfather.” Leo apologized slowly. Heaven was quiet. She was surprised to see that Leo took the blame for what he knows nothing about. “It’s fine. You don’t know anything about her allergy to eggs. I’ll calm her down.” James said calmly to Leo. Then he stood up and walked out of the dining room. Leo felt bad because he knew that James was upset but he tried not to vent it on him. Heaven felt ashamed of herself for doing something that she couldn’t own up to at the end of the day. She couldn’t even look at Leo’s face because she was too ashamed to do such a thing. “You can go.” Leo said to the assistant chef and the chef that were on their knees. Heaven stood up immediately and crossed the assistant chef. “I’m sorry.” she had to swallow her pride and apologize to the assistant chef. Leo saw what she did and he was happy
Leo was still in deep thought. He was thinking about the promise he made himself. He almost forgot he was doing something before he remembered the document he was signing. “Sir, are you okay?” Jake asked when he noticed Leo was lost in thought. The question brought Leo back to reality immediately. He moved all the papers aside and stood up from where he was sitting. He walked out of his office so that he could think clearly for a few minutes. Jake was confused because he was wondering what suddenly went wrong that's making his boss act the way he is acting. “What is wrong with me?” Leo asked himself and put his hand on his waist. He sighed heavily and finally decided to stop thinking about things that will ruin his mood. He walked back into the office and sat down. He shifted the papers closer to him and started signing them. When he was done, he handed them over to Jake who quickly put the files in the right place.*********************** Heaven was confused at this point
