Angel was in the living 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNv1ZbqI6H
room with Amanda. The doctor had just finished checking up on both of 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuU2vezrmj
them and was leaving for the door after biding them goodbye.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZNLkc5tvE
"So, how was it?" Amanda asked immediately the doctor had left.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40Ik30cXqh
"How was what?" Angel asked.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcGiighp1I
"Getting to know Leo?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdgztRbXBR
Angel could have sworn 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3i5GXsl3g
that a ghost had just passed by because she suddenly went pale. She 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtBllejxuo
turned towards the window wondering what to say to Amanda.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvEyCyAdla
"Umm, it pretty much went okay," said Angel as she turned to look at Amanda in front of her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceuyXf22zU
"Really?" Amanda looked a936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BDHAaWhKC
little concerned. "I noticed the way you came in from the patio and I 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAyJafPyJO
thought I saw a sad look on your face. Did Leo say something that might 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfFrRtpImw
have offended you?" 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO8TMUzNhg
"Oh, no, no," Angel replied quickly. "I just felt a little discomfort in my body and felt like it was time I saw the doctor."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIu2wbFQ0t
"But Leo should have helped you back in. Why didn't he do that?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6numGHasQP
"I didn't tell him. We spent a lot of time talking and I didn't want to worry him with my pain."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46gwd5cxZ2
"Awww, you're so 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bsghtLWDS
considerate, my dear. But right now, you'll need a lot more help you can936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjr1Ta3h0u
get before you fully recover. Anyway, the doctor said you are doing 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGishwyeRc
well and that you will get better in no time. Maybe then, you will be 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmJKp3LPBN
able to walk around freely again without any difficulty or pain."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhLQ7xPISu
"You have no idea how I miss walking. I can't wait to do things and get back to work."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeEtONTFFo
"Speaking about work, what do you do for a living, dear?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxAslPdMLe
"Well, I work at an editing company. It isn't much but I enjoy what I do."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNscBnmVam
Amanda gave Angel the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwx7Nnaoic
kindest smile. "That's nice and decent. I figured you're one who loves 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvTOJKvwB7
to deal with writing. It suits you."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLzh2ZJDsT
Angel smiled back. Amanda was really nice that Angel couldn't think of any nice words or gesture to give back.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUMokM3OxZ
Amanda then snapped her fingers. "I just thought of something just now."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFFoGk6VPe
"What is it?" Angel asked.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyhCLc9RG7
"You seem to be one 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTcsqgy9Qd
person who really loves their job so much, but just as you said earlier,936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvXAqRM1QN
it's not paying you enough. And I think, you Angel, deserve the best."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmp4ORlvHb
Angel couldn't tell where all of this was going, so she waited for Amanda to carry on.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4COc2YA6po
"How about you start working for us? At the MacDonell Technology Construction Company?" Amanda asked.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQqp7WjE59
"What?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLY9xbDGFD
Angel's face became paler as she heard that voice.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHAitFWQ9M
Leo who had just come in936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3Def2XiT9
from the patio, heard the whole thing. He was standing in the foyer, 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmvMYJndin
just at the entrance of the living room.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz35WHVUnDP
"What did you just say 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VrwtVSUbn
now, grandma?" Leo asked as he stepped in the living room and approached936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISs64b2Kql
the two women on the wheelchairs.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSl3Vaq6sq
Amanda turned her 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9WN0a6t9G
wheelchair around and looked at Leo. "Don't start acting like your 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9taujlHz17
mother like she hasn't heard anything and wants someone to repeat 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlQGyH9Tzj
themselves."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GSAcT2vZg
"I just can't believe what you're saying right now," said Leo. "Did you just ask Angel to join us at our company?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RRzNzkdKB
"Yes," said Amanda with a billion dollar smile on her face. "Won't that be nice?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx5PTTqNSL
Leo couldn't believe 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUleFK8ogfN
what he was hearing as he slowly met eyes with Angel. Even she couldn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhlTtljEud
tell why Amanda had suggested this in the first place.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1kvnkiMjt
"Haven't you thought 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQG4rQ6Val
this through, grandma?" Leo asked, feeling somewhat confused. "I mean, 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQchEZrkSFh
what makes you think Angel could come and work for us? Doesn't she have a936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yUlkJfuTZ
job of her own?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MuipPCVBv
"Leo's right," said Angel. "I already have a job and I don't see why I have to trade it for another."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN4cn7Tzsa
"You deserve better, my 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLh7USoNXM
dear," said Amanda as she looked at Angel. "I haven't said anything 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7AYxbbLbN
wrong. I'm just giving you a chance to do something better."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6JXbw93Ar
"But grandma, you can't do that, you know," said Leo. "Angel should be willing to come and work at our company."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGOgJWHg7E
"If you ask me, your father would agree to this too."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUgTlY0Dpl
"What makes you so sure?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa7pVqh8Vo
"I know your father. And he will think exactly the same."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm41d3a0Pj0
"Mum won't though."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVr9exGhME
"Does she run the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlC3c3wZyB
company?" Amanda raised an eyebrow at her grandson. "She might be 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVysOkktB9U
married to your father and have a share in the company, but she doesn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xZUDtKEQX
make decisions. Your father and I do with other shareholders."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsrJBGKhfA
Leo knew his grandmother936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCK1SWc2qx
was right and there was no way to oppose her. But he still couldn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0Bni5AR6e
believe that she wanted Angel to work at the company. His mother might 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ArrTz0CcJ
not make any major decisions concerning the company, but she sure as 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dooszgGYG
hell wasn't going to agree with Angel working there.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUpcExYqgW
"I think I am going to work now," said Leo who couldn't take all of this anymore.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDuO5mzCDR
"Don't say any of this 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3y4hZedcp
to anyone yet," Amanda warned him. "I'll have to talk to your father 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cBOkMjNxA
first and then smooth talk your mother, which is the most unpleasant 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNM4nqkQTtL
thing I'll have to do in my life. And....," she looked at Angel. "I'll 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqderB7Tip
have to convince her a little more than I have to."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhZFmZuvNo
Angel gulped. It felt 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1DKtcBE3I
like Amanda was going to give her a lesson of her life when she was only936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiAMUBxQhL
trying to convince her to join the McDonells.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXtGnDo8yc
Leo made his way out of 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMPRurgxNg
the room without a second thought of staying to try and convince his 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblGbPoTrJz
grandmother to change her mind. He was about to head up the stairs so 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ391oLS7z5L
that he could go to his room and get his car keys and other things when 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmcsWsumHo
his mother appeared, making her way down the stairs.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfj70rigAN
"Oh, Leo," said Mrs McDonell as she reached the bottom of the stairs where her son stood. "You already had your breakfast?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtjLZpJfux
"I had breakfast with everyone else," Leo answered. "May you excuse me, I have to go for work."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQjbgNSVKP
"Wait, Leo, I need you to....."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaplBKLgA8
But Leo went up the stairs without giving her a chance to finish. Mrs McDonell looked on at his son as he went to his room.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyStzggcFP
"Looks like he's still mad at you," said Amanda from the living room.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXevCalFi6
"I wonder when you're ever going to mind your own business," said Mrs McDonell as she made her way into the living room.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcySpoNm6DV
"When I finally leave this place." Amanda gave her daughter-in-law a smile. "I know what you're up to."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L4Z9Ym05o
Mrs McDonell folded her arms. "I don't know what you're talking about."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce6O56SEdx
"I'm talking about Kim."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnlZkCLChl
Angel didn't know if it 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvQDeBa0Yq
was right to be in this room and listen to their conversation. The way 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK08RkqXWyG
she saw it, Amanda and Mrs McDonell seem to have some long time feud. It936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIon4FcKN8
didn't seem serious, but it was dangerous for anyone else apart from 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1jAtlf7jL
the two to be involved in. They were family so it was quiet normal to 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytR06XqINF
argue. But there was something between the two women that Angel could 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoZGfSTnhN
feel but couldn't put together. Did these two really hate each other 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkSdPaIIuH
just as much or was it they have a bit of a conflict when it came to 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzXIYcDIKY
certain things?936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51jF0ydRs9
"Kim is good for Leo. You should know better," said Mrs McDonell.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXmPAvosTN
"If she was that good, then why did Leo call off the wedding?" Amanda asked.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkeJO4ZWAh
Angel felt like covering936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhFROh19Ni
her ears. Kim was the girl Leo was supposed to marry and she couldn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18SJo9MUR3
help but feel awful about it. Only a few people knew why Leo ended 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSjKNReYJa
things with her. It wasn't just about the accident that ruined the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRYDihg2Z1
wedding day to begin with, but because of Leo's sudden love for Carly.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Imk95QYTp
"There was an accident that day," said Mrs McDonell. Angel knew she would say that.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLByPv6TFN
"Ya, but a few days later, he confronted Kim and told her that he didn't want to marry her anymore," said Amanda.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSyHL1pDbK
Angel felt her heart 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGEJ5g6qpw
skip a beat. She couldn't help but feel this was all her fault. Maybe if936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQH6H7ke4Z
she knew what Carly was up to from the beginning and stopped her, this 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqWuVk1SdA
wouldn't have happened. Leo would have never laid his eyes on Carly and 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRTVn8lX2d
would have gotten married and they would never have known each other to 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRV9R8SHeqm
begin with. That's if Mr McDonell hadn't visited her mother on that day 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcifwlomJa6
and invited her to the wedding.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHLJtZjMbK
"Don't start with me," said Mrs McDonell.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojqGv8VpXA
"But you know perfectly well that it is the truth," said Amanda.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FKOpRhzb0
Angel looked at Amanda 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7eXNjXgmG
and then at Mrs McDonell. She soon noticed Leo coming down the stairs. 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSB0NamAjTD
She cleared her throat as a warning to the two ladies arguing.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLCAmAhKnE
Amanda and Mrs McDonell 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlkvNoFCH3
noticed Angel clearing her throat and when they both looked at her, they936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj9kaQ1Dyg
saw her eyes looking into the foyer. They didn't utter a word when they936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBuhFywYDz
saw Leo.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJt3rabEY7h
"What's going on?" Leo asked. "Why are you so quiet?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNwfAV7jGJ
"Nothing, dear," said 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UK2twK8d9
Amanda. "Just arguing over what to have for supper. You know your mother936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrWUoDdVb8
hates it when I try to take over the kitchen for a day."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjVZAAln0K
"Okay. I'll be going to work then."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9a9T0ifvvq
"Have a nice day."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibIX4jaHVD
"Have a nice day, Leo," said Mrs McDonell.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SgONX80eZ
Leo nodded his head in 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcvxumBttt
acknowledgment. He looked at Angel and Angel looked back at him. They 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm30bPpHQNp
stared at each other for a little while before Leo nodded his head at 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIcI55ytOV
her and she did the same back to him. Then he walked out of the house 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7wjMZTcQO
through the front door.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmujm8QUICq
"Where were we?" Amanda asked looking up at Mrs McDonell.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jAhABbyvt
"You're unbelievable," 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk46u00iw6K
said Mrs McDonell with her hands shaking in the air like she couldn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVFKCLvSQt
take it anymore. "I'm going to have my breakfast."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfaU1swsWR
Mrs McDonell quickly left the living room. Angel looked on as she left. This family had some drama for sure.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEweru5DDZY
"I'm sorry for that, 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvN4mgvtLd
dear," said Amanda as she took Angel's hand into hers. "Don't mind her. 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JfpJ5HZDt
She could be a bit cranky sometimes."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5XkVyBYIt
"You don't have to remind me," said Angel, remembering how Mrs McDonell reacted upon seeing her and Carly's luggage yesterday.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtPPbNQFVh
"I think I argued too much I need to take a little rest. I hope you don't mind."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kYUAbvolk
"No, I don't. You need the rest. Come to think of it, I think I'll take a little nap too."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCluCBcu9jX
"Alright, let's go to our rooms then."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7lMtuqO9w
Angel slowly followed 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2yiUCsbvp
Amanda. While she rolled herself out of the room, she couldn't help but 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0iKP5tW7a
think about Kim. She could only imagine how devastated Kim was after her936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGi2c5mIP9
wedding was called off and then your fiancé ends things for good. She 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLJwOFGEiR
must have felt awful.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFFUGoxa4L
Angel couldn't help but feel sorry for her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGKRkeRJOf
***936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7lcaxoYt4
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrrcpSTLhV
couldn't stop smiling to himself as he looked up at the ceiling 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oFLf7u3An
wondering why he couldn't stop getting lost in his own head.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c0HqLTFBx
He936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4LfkAQIP0
propped upright on his chair as he went back to looking at his 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56rhpdnCQ1
computer. He bit his lower lip as he leaned back further in his chair 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgS5M6q8Ii
and went up to looking at the ceiling again.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPxBdK34hW
"Oh, Angel, what are you doing to me?" he asked himself with a smile on his face.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRErl5KNqiV
Since936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrKeb4NKuA
he left for work this morning, he couldn't stop thinking about Angel. 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd3CRr8dFZ
As much as he has been seeing her everyday even when she was in 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIl5aF5oGp
hospital, he never thought of her as much as he has today. He wondered 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdgHlqFlO3
why he couldn't stop thinking about her. Did he like her that much?936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb1r2hFdiG
Who936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWXGHggxfM
wouldn't? She's nice and very beautiful, almost like an angel. And her 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyf8sx89wc
black and red hair made her look strikingly more beautiful. And her soft936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTim4DnPKjd
brown eyes were intriguing to look at and get mesmerised.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKHSaeHO92
He936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Rpseoez6W
imagined looking into those eyes right now that he didn't hear his 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvp37tnPZu
landline on the desk ringing at first. It was when it rang the second 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYvci8RM6u
time that he managed to get out of his daydream and answer the call.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUB93OhBfF
"Yes?" he answered knowing that it was his secretary, Emily.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkdzQIDzVZ
"You've someone here to see you."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdRKdMOK8v
"Who is it?" Eric rolled his eyes in irritation. He really didn't like being disturbed when he was daydreaming.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrkhVSTg9k
"It's Trina."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxU4QE15hl
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVnZyTiowA
hadn't heard that name in a long time. Trina? What could she be doing 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgVjMw5dtQ
here? They hadn't been in touch for a long time since the wedding got 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsNSJ2aQEZ
called off.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKONvvm0aa
"Tell her to come in," he said putting the hand phone back on the receiver.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MpTdEJFID
The door to his office flew open and and Trina stepped into the room.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUlg29pHZm
"Hi, Eric," said Trina with a smile on her face.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NoOwm5ScA
"Trina, hi," said Eric as he got up from his chair and went round the table to her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCydz3uPyQ
Trina936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaDUTrulNB
gave him a hug and Eric didn't feel that much comfortable as he used to936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YeMXaPK5b
when Trina gave him hugs. The two were friends. They weren't so close, 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWU5W4ncBrF
but they were friends anyway, because of Leo and Kim. The four of them 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEItYPjLEO6
were almost like a gang during their school years though they used to 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaBigGOjTX
fall out sometimes but still get back together.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lrcqmwm72
Now936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkWoaYnPHx
that they were all grown up, they weren't much as friends as they used 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrMdN1uOh3
to since Kim and Leo fell in love with each other and started dating in 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6eeVeMlLm
high school and straight throughout college. It still didn't mean they 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ3oJWekKA
weren't friends.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswXBVWNPjN
While936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYsRNDpvbk
Kim and Leo were in love, Eric was more of a play boy. He was handsome 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcZQKEZSgs
after all and everywhere he went, ladies fell for him. It wasn't that 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK7JPDAmSH
Leo is handsome. He really is. It's just that he was already taken and 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIamJtMiMCS
way too early for that matter, so he didn't get to have as many 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KgDgTByAw
girlfriends as Eric did during his college years.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IiBBMmpH9
One936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGASJnVxfF
of Eric's flings happened to be Trina. Trina has always had her eye on 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WEnPQol0x
him for as long she could ever remember. She hoped that Eric would be 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p0U6Cdo9e
serious with her and the two of them would get into a relationship. But 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6V2Bo2bPBo
that was far from happening. Eric seemed too far to be committed into 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDX3UDZ7n1
one.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9aCQcxekb
Not until he met Angel.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPvKYe8Uyb
Trina936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY7SlkFTDq
smiled back at Eric after hugging him. She felt so excited to see him 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU33ia2K30
in what felt like forever when it's only been close to two weeks.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduWkuWkcZM
"I haven't heard from you like forever," said Trina. "Are you ignoring me now?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZczmAi2Zf
"No, it's not like that," said Eric. "Please, take a seat."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvLLebmzo4
Trina936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZvfWjRflr
did as she was told. She wore a sky blue sleeveless dress, flared and 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD5YFCWQzr
reaching above her knees. She wore white high heels and she had a cream 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2LW8zXDJZ
coloured handbag and lovely gold neck chain. She looked really 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0l09lxg4k
beautiful.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUtXaZihW5
But to Eric, not as beautiful as Angel.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94msqgSwH3
"Then936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGmlxm1qH9
what is it, Eric?" Trina asked. "I thought we were friends. And after 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBfJEnSiVp
what happened on the wedding day, we're supposed to be by each other's 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FReJgtxnf
side to try and work things out."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtvdkibTq6
"Work things out with Leo?" Eric raised an eyebrow as he soon settled down on his chair. "You already know how stubborn he is."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXH4yM8OAf
"I know. I do feel so bad for Kim."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHNvQxNXlO
"Ya, me too."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIsnYjfJJc
"She didn't deserve what Leo did to her."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUbBtRKOD1
Eric didn't say anything as he went back to looking at his computer.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozovpU9YVn
"Do you know something, Eric?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LaE9gyjxe
Eric went back to looking at Trina. "Know what?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9Kcy2bNGI
"Why Leo broke up with Kim? Do you know?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIbiRjrdkv
"No, I don't," Eric lied without hesitation. "After all that happened he just changed his mind."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj9SPN2hO8
"But there has to be a reason. Is it because he fell in love with someone else?" Trina asked with an eyebrow raised.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qCUoPZQ3c
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUVXT3VqEc
almost gulped but that would only show Trina that he was lying and that936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v2LdAFvPE
he was definitely hiding something. Instead, he playfully rolled his 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yXVme1Q5Q
eyes with a corky smile on his face.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx9M2mXvox
"Please,936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTZnNfLI3H
Trina, if there was someone, I would know. Besides, he never told me 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJQp1t4a9x
why he changed his mind. So instead of interrogating me, why don't you 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOrAt2yth7
ask him?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvj9jCubrPx
Trina936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rM29tAS8o
almost dropped her mouth wide open in shock but she quickly said, "you 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4zmFKflgm
know I can't do that. Leo is scary to talk to sometimes. I asked you 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaBJiipdFf
because you're almost like his best friend and he tells you everything."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN3AtHjwOG
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CZigOWflX
smiled. "He is. But this time around, he really didn't tell me why he 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2rg01O52X
did that. I guess he had a change of heart of some sorts."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQzqZmXNB4
"Do you think it has something to do with that girl he hit his car with that day?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDtqeti7HX
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj2EdoWqXG
soon went pale as he didn't know how to answer the question. He went 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRHPKeAQft
back to looking at his computer screen and tapped away on the mouse, 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFEEP4yAdx
clicking on the desktop, pretending to look busy as he thought of what 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWh0Tti1qH
to say next.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZH3jGUfL2
"Uh, Eric," Trina called out to him. "Aren't you going to answer me? Does it have to do with that girl?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMb1ZwevFc
"You're asking me the wrong question, Trina," he answered, looking at her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lTts8V3mg
"What do you mean? You were there, weren't you, when the accident happened?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXDrFba29Y
"Yes, but to be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with her."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9elvYBwLZ
"Are you sure? How is she by the way?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK9oiYYUxQ
"She's936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LHjDNhcNp
okay." Eric didn't want to give Trina any more details about the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURgk2gkONB
Barclay sisters. If anything, Trina only knew about Angel and not Carly.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl5hGiAvoi
He was afraid giving her more information might prove to be lethal in 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7sEsLMzLr
the end. She was Kim's best friend after all and he knew she was only 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V7GVu1VK3
here to get information from him because Leo wouldn't talk to her 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1sxHR1ozP
anymore.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2TSpAHY8H
"Is that why you have been completely ignoring me? Because of the accident?" Trina asked.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxORyrew2sA
"Ignoring you?" Eric chuckled but blushed at the same time. "What do you mean?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCmFWugtQu
Trina936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzdw12T1Vh
soon stood up from her seat and the smile on Eric's face soon died 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡattlEpvkge
away. She came over to where he sat standing behind his chair. He 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhaCxqA0W6
suddenly felt her hands on his shoulders as she slowly started to 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGqBI5TkwD
massage him.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5BNCIe0PB
"You've been ignoring me, Eric," said Trina, slowly. "Was it because of the accident or did I do something wrong?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9KL5JkVwt
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauwNAKwYz5
raised an eyebrow as he tried to figure out the right words to use. 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNYmyy9Ghu
What happened to Angel had kept him a little busy but that wasn't the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx08dtyAJGK
full truth. He had grown fond of Angel from the very first day he saw 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLps25aaVRl
her. When she was involved in the accident, he felt like it was his duty936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIRvWmPOMY
to be by her side and take care of her. That's why he was always there 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJpQD23bfi
everyday at the hospital to check up on her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAoxiSxOpD
He936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZby5u8TOJE
didn't know he would care for someone who wasn't his family that much 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9ZxtFLCW9
like he did for Angel. There was something about her that made him think936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbm7L1H0NO
of her always. Nowadays even when he was to see any beautiful lady 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfwwMYNvVk
walking across the street, he would end up thinking of Angel and how he 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxpOqhYlsg
just wanted to be by her side at that very moment.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ8Q0OAlZB
"Hey?" Trina brought Eric back from his thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHJgZcyXSt
"Nothing," he answered. "I just realised I have a lot of things to do today."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHrzWS2HTs
"I am here now, so why don't you relax a little bit." Trina bended over and whispered in his ear, "I really missed you though."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID2wA2LJoY
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUbEhrxoc4
felt a sudden discomfort on his shoulders and he soon propped up on his936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImjGBX6C6N
seat giving Trina a sign to stop what she was doing.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JV6jPqCjb
"What's wrong?" Trina sounded a little worried. "Don't you like my massage?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsZa4hPWyB
"It's not that, Trina," said Eric. "I just have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done today."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIFEo1zPmJ
"Oh,936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5dVrtkL5P
I'm sorry." Trina soon walked away from Eric and went back to her chair936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvPyFF7iD6
to get her handbag. Eric couldn't help but blow out a puff of air 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRUFiuOa4U
silently from his mouth, relieved that Trina was leaving.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJvMCN2Wj5
"Maybe we can try and catch up with each other sometime," said Trina as she turned to look at Eric.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2uGcZSqxx
"Ya, we should," he said hoping that it wouldn't be any time soon.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwXXp8G7SJ
Trina936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNj1FjCOHX
smiled at him and just as she was about to walk over to him to give him936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdocMOgpzxy
who knows what, the door to Eric's office flew open.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutKhOCeMhU
Leo936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpydLJCsMzo
stepped into the room and he paused when he saw Trina. Trina couldn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QcODssuGM
help but feel her cheeks blush in embarrassment upon seeing Leo.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMCnLQopjs
"There's a thing called knocking, you know," Eric said feeling rather glad that Leo was here.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HdqeLKCFQ
"I didn't know you had company," said Leo as he turned to look at his cousin.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaYT3Y7fbD
"Isn't Emily at her desk?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMo6a1j08h
Leo show his head. "She must have stepped out for tea."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZvM4T6Wq7
Eric rolled his eyes. Typical Emily.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJSnpjwNBm
"I was just leaving," said Trina.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjVi5LhsoZ
"Okay," said Eric. "I would have loved to escort you out but I'm rather busy as you can see."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthlQbv7ZUm
"It's fine," said Trina giving Eric a bright smile which soon faded away when she turned to look at Leo.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRe5j2CDo3
With936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2MzkP1cCK
her bag in her hand, Trina quickly made her way for the door. Leo stood936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEDBK7ApeB
aside for her to pass and she was out of the office in seconds.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHasWdTo0s
"What was she doing here?" Leo asked as he closed the door after her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49G31k8ZCt
"What do you think?" Eric asked as he went back to sit on his chair.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56ZUJJLzmA
"Acting as Kim's informant, I presume," Leo answered as he approached Eric's table.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0gZMhRUph
"Yep. But don't worry, I didn't tell her anything."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBe2V5XdTX
"I know you wouldn't. You're too smart for that."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFcgQdqXDP
"She thought the reason why you broke things up with Kim was because of the accident."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xThLuaM9x
"It's best they think that way. I don't have to explain anything to anyone."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrjfVvWUPU
"Well, you would someday."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw2YtTuIvW
Leo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFbTD4ysRZ
"I mean, you won't be able to hide your love for Carly forever. What if after a year, you two decide to get married?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb3obNtWE6
"That would be fine by me."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgUjGOP1QU
"Oh,936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDWWig18SZ
really? Then how are you going to explain yourself to Kim? Because at 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGsnSWDU7Z
that time, she would realise that the person you ran over is Angel who 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbE02Cx5B5
happens to be the sister whom you fell in love with and the reason why 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmlDUU8J6D
you broke things off with her."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqI13Eo6Vaj
"Please, it's not like she's going to figure it out."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrzjnnpeOF
"She will. Kim isn't that much of a blonde, you know."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2RRLnZ345
"Okay, enough about Kim. It's already hard enough that Trina was even here. She annoys me sometimes."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nWTRLFQa0
"And she's afraid of you. Your presence in my office made her run out of here like she had met her worst nightmare."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVkS5EpSS0
"I am everybody's worst nightmare." Leo smirked.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCHqYdL9mx
"Not to Angel." Eric smirked back. "If anything, she seems like one who always puts you back in your place."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TnyIgKesU
Leo936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CvjzBxnJV
blushed as he remembered his conversation with her back home at the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPaZSNZUOH
patio and how she made fun of him because Amanda made him apologise to 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQzG9attDO
her.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XR0djJgsl
"Now what's with that face, dear cousin?" Eric asked in a mocking tone.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyga9QLnSm
"What face?" Leo asked trying to be stoic.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jrl5mkIJ5
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3XiztBqT0
smiled as his index finger made a circle in the air as though 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvvageMNNR
highlighting Leo's face. "The look on your face tells me you were 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGsitQfqbI
thinking about Angel just now."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY4V7fPUAk
Leo shook his head. "No, I wasn't."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMwPD0y9dc
"Yes, you were," said Eric with glee. "Did something happen between the two of you before you came here?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizNJQ6B9Qo
Leo936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zArX2tyNI
was caught in between telling Eric the truth or keeping what happened 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID7B5QbJAK
all to himself. He couldn't tell him that he had apologised to Angel 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY3c0NOtp0
because his grandmother made him do so. It would hurt his ego.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKk9KkP4WO
"Hey? Aren't you going to tell me or not? It's the reason why you're here, right?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFipg62FiMz
"What makes you say that?" Leo asked see with his arms folded.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBvm5Z5DUA
"Because,936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNkzFToGZN
whenever you want to let something out of your chest, you want to let 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ13gwxvMd
it out or else you would burst. And besides, you just came in here 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1ZglKKbC8
without even knocking first meaning it's really bothering you and you're936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoopwvG5kU
in a sense of emergency to release it."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQvbpUzUYs
Leo looked at Eric as he settled on the chair Trina had occupied minutes ago. "You know me so well."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiRytyi0ya
"Of936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRwKqeCIqo
course, I do," said Eric as he raised his eyebrows. "I'm your best 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjPtNOC1dY
friend after all. Now, tell me what happened between you and my sweet 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZihNSsPSY
darling, Angel."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15FFSPaPYr
"Angel isn't sweet. She's a pain in the neck and she's only out there to get me."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89cVLR8x88
"Continue." Eric couldn't help but grin.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T1pMsDJwB
Leo ended up telling Eric all that had happened with Amanda, Angel and himself back home.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIFCqxiORy
"And you think it was all Angel's fault?" Eric asked after Leo finished his story.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUf9Vx64C5
"Well, ya," Leo answered. "She even made fun of me about it after grandma left."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpzxpfYbSz
Eric laughed. "Looks like she really put you in your place for sure. She didn't even have to raise a finger to do it."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMNpJ1yrW6
"Grandma936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88LNoE7ZTQ
already likes her, that's why. And I'm afraid this might not be the 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjyoU2MSak
only time she will ever get the upper hand in things."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zfqBEITak
"What do you mean? Is there something I should know about?"936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeop0jerGbK
Leo936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYJttsBBzB
wanted to tell Eric about his grandmother's suggestion of bringing 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbp8fhBW5p
Angel to work at the McDonell company. But he promised he wouldn't say a936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdZ3DOXZat
word to anyone.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyofWQEbRby
"I'll leave that up to grandma to tell you," he said. "I simply can't say anything."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvwoewgDqv
"Alright," said Eric. "It seems grandma has a surprise for us, right? Then I better hear it from her then."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfEdm3mKGB
"Yep,936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUsiUpkiRZ
it's a surprise indeed." Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Anyway, I936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0TKyAmSRu
better get back to work." He stood up from the chair.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX0MmtshSN
"Ya, you do that. I've a lot of daydreaming to do." Eric leaned back on his chair and with his hands behind his head.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmym4zrijcc
"Let me guess, the Lady Supreme."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpeyqpg1SS
"Just because grandma favours her, doesn't mean that she will always have the upper hand, Leo."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfEzzhsc0e
"You'll be surprised. It seems things are all going in her favour."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPLuenAjx0
Eric936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sb5Iwm4Dd
smirked as he closed his eyes. "You're just upset because for once in 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioq7rC41fP
your life, you've met the one person whose up to your level in terms of 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr0eEkes2F
attitude that's it's difficult to bring them down."936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1oWuN4rU5
Leo936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfL4xxNlLn
looked at his cousin and he didn't know whether to give him a slap, 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeQBwASwDd
which he was wanting to do so badly, or just let him be. He slowly 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2uSy1tNJ8
turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2tQ8DR0Iv
He936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgJKxasujS
couldn't get what his cousin said out in his head and it stuck in his 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3Yszmsn1w
mind even as he reached the office and looked at the documents on his 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRvtFwFRuO
desk that he had to look at today.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh7o3eQ0D5
Could it be that Leo and Angel were alike in terms of attitude and that somehow, Angel had the upper hand?936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPTqnREvE2
Leo936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2lkLTsgpQ
shook his head as he finally settled down behind his desk. He wasn't 936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9GfWUsulC
going to dwell on the issue forever. He had a lot of work to do.936Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYC9wjIjTN
And it would take a lot more time for him to finally realise that he might have finally met his match.
