Miranda looks around the restaurant before her eyes land on Liam. She hates that he is keeping her in the dark about things."So, how are things coming along with the Kyle problem?""The Kyle problem?" Liam raises a brow."Yes, the last time I heard, he was trying to gain Jack's company.""Oh, don't worry about it. We have it all under control."Miranda rolls her eyes."Why so you always do that?""Do what?""Deflect. Every time I ask you something important, you tell me that I should worry or that it's not my concern.""Because it's not.""Well, Liam. My company was the first to get fucked with by Kyle.

We would love to hear what you have to say.""Ok, the problem is I don't know where Cassandra lives.""That's fine, she will send you the location."When the call ends, Cassandra makes a face at Liam.

Kyle checks his email anxiously, waiting for the test results to come in. He just couldn't get Miranda's remark out of his mind, and he will be damned if he is related to someone like her.Finally, an email comes in. When Kyle opens it, he sees that it is nothing but spam.''Damn it! What is taking so long?"Kyle dials the number to the medical center, and when the woman answers, he shouts insults at her."You incompetent bitch! I have been waiting two days and four hours for one fucking DNA test, and I have been yet to get the results.
