Angel was in the living 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xDCGUMyLw
room with Amanda. The doctor had just finished checking up on both of 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1aeGkrhUl
them and was leaving for the door after biding them goodbye.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWrdxm43uM
"So, how was it?" Amanda asked immediately the doctor had left.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy4nn5SNMh
"How was what?" Angel asked.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEsFI1VDzJ
"Getting to know Leo?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o6RXh7nep
Angel could have sworn 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpO5iObvF4
that a ghost had just passed by because she suddenly went pale. She 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJmS0QBMul
turned towards the window wondering what to say to Amanda.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuisJlmHag1
"Umm, it pretty much went okay," said Angel as she turned to look at Amanda in front of her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRSNINAK6y
"Really?" Amanda looked a866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnupLVnMlHn
little concerned. "I noticed the way you came in from the patio and I 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwYHTofkwT
thought I saw a sad look on your face. Did Leo say something that might 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8V3JPspPK
have offended you?" 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARexELQBV7
"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."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJHW99bmAL
"But Leo should have helped you back in. Why didn't he do that?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmwXC5pieZ
"I didn't tell him. We spent a lot of time talking and I didn't want to worry him with my pain."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUPFpIkhhK
"Awww, you're so 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiEp8ZLRyC
considerate, my dear. But right now, you'll need a lot more help you can866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCvTqtpuv1
get before you fully recover. Anyway, the doctor said you are doing 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY84L9TWVu
well and that you will get better in no time. Maybe then, you will be 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKmucSVWfC
able to walk around freely again without any difficulty or pain."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Gw0rKGKz6
"You have no idea how I miss walking. I can't wait to do things and get back to work."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGJBPNsG41
"Speaking about work, what do you do for a living, dear?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcW0wNl2sH
"Well, I work at an editing company. It isn't much but I enjoy what I do."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfwt0fwagM
Amanda gave Angel the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCb16IMjuXe
kindest smile. "That's nice and decent. I figured you're one who loves 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEJ6GXFFAO
to deal with writing. It suits you."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDhkeTFCfQ
Angel smiled back. Amanda was really nice that Angel couldn't think of any nice words or gesture to give back.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIbTXgUeSf
Amanda then snapped her fingers. "I just thought of something just now."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXy0VcsUZ1
"What is it?" Angel asked.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU7Um12XpO
"You seem to be one 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzglae31GHR
person who really loves their job so much, but just as you said earlier,866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIVi31MnCI
it's not paying you enough. And I think, you Angel, deserve the best."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaJHQNXv8t
Angel couldn't tell where all of this was going, so she waited for Amanda to carry on.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWzoL5T3EM
"How about you start working for us? At the MacDonell Technology Construction Company?" Amanda asked.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ErK7Sngxi
"What?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO4MfIt9VQ
Angel's face became paler as she heard that voice.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGQ2PJBqr6
Leo who had just come in866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDuFmEEbUM
from the patio, heard the whole thing. He was standing in the foyer, 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta17ufczPC
just at the entrance of the living room.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fzcqkTOpZ
"What did you just say 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifbO1qvppL
now, grandma?" Leo asked as he stepped in the living room and approached866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN53M5TP5t5
the two women on the wheelchairs.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9ruzehiX8
Amanda turned her 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAwWq14Dy6
wheelchair around and looked at Leo. "Don't start acting like your 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbcSmwqRXC
mother like she hasn't heard anything and wants someone to repeat 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR5zG8PiCq
themselves."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD36b8eh1R
"I just can't believe what you're saying right now," said Leo. "Did you just ask Angel to join us at our company?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2ZPJysQD2
"Yes," said Amanda with a billion dollar smile on her face. "Won't that be nice?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyspBJacYdy
Leo couldn't believe 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFcUzQ5s8q
what he was hearing as he slowly met eyes with Angel. Even she couldn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDRXDMMVzv
tell why Amanda had suggested this in the first place.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ih933SB3P
"Haven't you thought 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZW64oj3uh
this through, grandma?" Leo asked, feeling somewhat confused. "I mean, 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigBx4x9mdF
what makes you think Angel could come and work for us? Doesn't she have a866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvKqURiPR1
job of her own?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8scFXyXV8
"Leo's right," said Angel. "I already have a job and I don't see why I have to trade it for another."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMpLyHiLdO
"You deserve better, my 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4twiMdjJM
dear," said Amanda as she looked at Angel. "I haven't said anything 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUcc5OGASe
wrong. I'm just giving you a chance to do something better."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXFAKVm3OL
"But grandma, you can't do that, you know," said Leo. "Angel should be willing to come and work at our company."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6gmEtSM6U
"If you ask me, your father would agree to this too."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3v0yJtj9u
"What makes you so sure?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUdm8JjIb5
"I know your father. And he will think exactly the same."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOotmYxOq8J
"Mum won't though."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6vRmUtoV8
"Does she run the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhk9ggxrtG
company?" Amanda raised an eyebrow at her grandson. "She might be 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9wE92ejgg
married to your father and have a share in the company, but she doesn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjScoh4e6sj
make decisions. Your father and I do with other shareholders."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIa1KU7h2w
Leo knew his grandmother866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i2wjpAPa2
was right and there was no way to oppose her. But he still couldn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGx5Bdp4T63
believe that she wanted Angel to work at the company. His mother might 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gbJrb9Bzv
not make any major decisions concerning the company, but she sure as 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfblup12pU
hell wasn't going to agree with Angel working there.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe8PhrpglD
"I think I am going to work now," said Leo who couldn't take all of this anymore.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQshvexZqbi
"Don't say any of this 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUl9iRZuzX
to anyone yet," Amanda warned him. "I'll have to talk to your father 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjav0Wj65SX
first and then smooth talk your mother, which is the most unpleasant 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLx0rUcitu
thing I'll have to do in my life. And....," she looked at Angel. "I'll 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYveSUMwq9y
have to convince her a little more than I have to."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgeST8Vtra
Angel gulped. It felt 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUISTWA617
like Amanda was going to give her a lesson of her life when she was only866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiGzkvutVU
trying to convince her to join the McDonells.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4O3xxTwgSN
Leo made his way out of 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6t0iWzZBh
the room without a second thought of staying to try and convince his 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRgEK7zo9f
grandmother to change her mind. He was about to head up the stairs so 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKCgVJSmcT
that he could go to his room and get his car keys and other things when 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5BDH8KoEF
his mother appeared, making her way down the stairs.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluB1I1SKbf
"Oh, Leo," said Mrs McDonell as she reached the bottom of the stairs where her son stood. "You already had your breakfast?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYurNlV0i0
"I had breakfast with everyone else," Leo answered. "May you excuse me, I have to go for work."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Vi9vR1FRb
"Wait, Leo, I need you to....."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTN3ZSEOpr
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.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO4pRyFfNi
"Looks like he's still mad at you," said Amanda from the living room.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2IL41UrHU
"I wonder when you're ever going to mind your own business," said Mrs McDonell as she made her way into the living room.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XEnH9BLIn
"When I finally leave this place." Amanda gave her daughter-in-law a smile. "I know what you're up to."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFdjGTbA3C
Mrs McDonell folded her arms. "I don't know what you're talking about."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTxVQgOhSG
"I'm talking about Kim."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eR5jWk87H
Angel didn't know if it 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WfPtMvDDk
was right to be in this room and listen to their conversation. The way 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFm1miV3EQo
she saw it, Amanda and Mrs McDonell seem to have some long time feud. It866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCLYF3aHz7
didn't seem serious, but it was dangerous for anyone else apart from 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OCG3GkLBt
the two to be involved in. They were family so it was quiet normal to 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKPPs8ByyB
argue. But there was something between the two women that Angel could 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAsZquZDjl
feel but couldn't put together. Did these two really hate each other 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn6b6zwZ08
just as much or was it they have a bit of a conflict when it came to 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPXrCFtoSX
certain things?866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz4p8e04II
"Kim is good for Leo. You should know better," said Mrs McDonell.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk37d0AfUll
"If she was that good, then why did Leo call off the wedding?" Amanda asked.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPG7LaYZAmb
Angel felt like covering866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13AQftWZ6W
her ears. Kim was the girl Leo was supposed to marry and she couldn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsupjYyi7DW
help but feel awful about it. Only a few people knew why Leo ended 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMqqqW40GB
things with her. It wasn't just about the accident that ruined the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYyYPbbi3s
wedding day to begin with, but because of Leo's sudden love for Carly.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQR0nveZkG
"There was an accident that day," said Mrs McDonell. Angel knew she would say that.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfRQgVvAsz
"Ya, but a few days later, he confronted Kim and told her that he didn't want to marry her anymore," said Amanda.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsDkkphTbT
Angel felt her heart 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFByjSJLTRm
skip a beat. She couldn't help but feel this was all her fault. Maybe if866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMWSnpduCS
she knew what Carly was up to from the beginning and stopped her, this 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalXYGe6mQc
wouldn't have happened. Leo would have never laid his eyes on Carly and 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD4jkhD4wi
would have gotten married and they would never have known each other to 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmf7WnUUahB
begin with. That's if Mr McDonell hadn't visited her mother on that day 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUketzrS5q1
and invited her to the wedding.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFs6OZ6Me9
"Don't start with me," said Mrs McDonell.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxvAfSHIaT
"But you know perfectly well that it is the truth," said Amanda.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVaMrG8dOQ
Angel looked at Amanda 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIc3W7NduH
and then at Mrs McDonell. She soon noticed Leo coming down the stairs. 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWjDoXH6kj
She cleared her throat as a warning to the two ladies arguing.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bqCmBpQGe
Amanda and Mrs McDonell 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OBznbXZkT
noticed Angel clearing her throat and when they both looked at her, they866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU11uo3ANQb
saw her eyes looking into the foyer. They didn't utter a word when they866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBXUeRaG54
saw Leo.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFfEoq1o6X
"What's going on?" Leo asked. "Why are you so quiet?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8kAKnYUPr
"Nothing, dear," said 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5y75MHtUo
Amanda. "Just arguing over what to have for supper. You know your mother866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBBeHjCvO1
hates it when I try to take over the kitchen for a day."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnqphRiGbx
"Okay. I'll be going to work then."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQptc052Pbj
"Have a nice day."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbJFRqcozR
"Have a nice day, Leo," said Mrs McDonell.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMYsGOqFya
Leo nodded his head in 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImG9k9hnAB
acknowledgment. He looked at Angel and Angel looked back at him. They 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxTJAsdby3
stared at each other for a little while before Leo nodded his head at 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSCF4jsXsR
her and she did the same back to him. Then he walked out of the house 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalGLBkVt0l
through the front door.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gEKUYmmrY
"Where were we?" Amanda asked looking up at Mrs McDonell.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDqHwkgFcg
"You're unbelievable," 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cBVlzvNyW
said Mrs McDonell with her hands shaking in the air like she couldn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uFYqMqKol
take it anymore. "I'm going to have my breakfast."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eZkLdtgeh
Mrs McDonell quickly left the living room. Angel looked on as she left. This family had some drama for sure.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEArEv54YiP
"I'm sorry for that, 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphxh8cBFPk
dear," said Amanda as she took Angel's hand into hers. "Don't mind her. 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBSIE7CDtv
She could be a bit cranky sometimes."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKF0kShwKz
"You don't have to remind me," said Angel, remembering how Mrs McDonell reacted upon seeing her and Carly's luggage yesterday.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ70BiFhfy
"I think I argued too much I need to take a little rest. I hope you don't mind."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzhFKnjbGK
"No, I don't. You need the rest. Come to think of it, I think I'll take a little nap too."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35JKzbFLOm
"Alright, let's go to our rooms then."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7brMpr7rS4
Angel slowly followed 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYykJBiG7oq
Amanda. While she rolled herself out of the room, she couldn't help but 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjM8xmz850
think about Kim. She could only imagine how devastated Kim was after her866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeI8K4g3a5
wedding was called off and then your fiancé ends things for good. She 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g65ZtIl1H
must have felt awful.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCu3LpcJMIR
Angel couldn't help but feel sorry for her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0UvA8q8JI
***866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMEUPwZjo6
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBVm3JCaT9
couldn't stop smiling to himself as he looked up at the ceiling 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKc8XiYjNV
wondering why he couldn't stop getting lost in his own head.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52GklBWL27
He866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3WtTw0U6b
propped upright on his chair as he went back to looking at his 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTcokrorUl
computer. He bit his lower lip as he leaned back further in his chair 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlN4vCeySKv
and went up to looking at the ceiling again.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNJdyNart2
"Oh, Angel, what are you doing to me?" he asked himself with a smile on his face.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgnO4qs86n
Since866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeW8KjiYFl
he left for work this morning, he couldn't stop thinking about Angel. 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLPYEWDEdN
As much as he has been seeing her everyday even when she was in 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORMtrlVdTS
hospital, he never thought of her as much as he has today. He wondered 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOcT2FncXJ
why he couldn't stop thinking about her. Did he like her that much?866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxNFky2IuE
Who866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6OR5uZwJ3
wouldn't? She's nice and very beautiful, almost like an angel. And her 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtw5QCZGtzG
black and red hair made her look strikingly more beautiful. And her soft866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSuU68iygx
brown eyes were intriguing to look at and get mesmerised.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYDzZbhB8N
He866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFDpvrZ1VJ
imagined looking into those eyes right now that he didn't hear his 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6d2kNmfLj
landline on the desk ringing at first. It was when it rang the second 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHxH9JJueK
time that he managed to get out of his daydream and answer the call.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsFBlV8eoT
"Yes?" he answered knowing that it was his secretary, Emily.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBUnysPCWJ
"You've someone here to see you."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jURYlLGaj
"Who is it?" Eric rolled his eyes in irritation. He really didn't like being disturbed when he was daydreaming.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzRAiBIBCf
"It's Trina."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Gb38SAHEe
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeHWdIXdqP
hadn't heard that name in a long time. Trina? What could she be doing 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqGz0vGgQa
here? They hadn't been in touch for a long time since the wedding got 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBuXLTTpqf
called off.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEupTrmIjUY
"Tell her to come in," he said putting the hand phone back on the receiver.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FynTvgKNB
The door to his office flew open and and Trina stepped into the room.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR1bk99WhJ
"Hi, Eric," said Trina with a smile on her face.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpaKDAkX61
"Trina, hi," said Eric as he got up from his chair and went round the table to her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTvJWS5E7R
Trina866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIewekVteX
gave him a hug and Eric didn't feel that much comfortable as he used to866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpNPQzy9h2
when Trina gave him hugs. The two were friends. They weren't so close, 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWkFPhJ4jb
but they were friends anyway, because of Leo and Kim. The four of them 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjdKPOTaVy
were almost like a gang during their school years though they used to 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDb8TavRXB
fall out sometimes but still get back together.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhB0pdwLJD
Now866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xNZDkEKIh
that they were all grown up, they weren't much as friends as they used 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf4Jy67caE
to since Kim and Leo fell in love with each other and started dating in 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd1yosJkXL
high school and straight throughout college. It still didn't mean they 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEcJbeqLLi
weren't friends.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4xFVP9Hto
While866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH54E4wrG3
Kim and Leo were in love, Eric was more of a play boy. He was handsome 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsENQNyZVxj
after all and everywhere he went, ladies fell for him. It wasn't that 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbTy75bMLI
Leo is handsome. He really is. It's just that he was already taken and 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjOckxAntz
way too early for that matter, so he didn't get to have as many 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDYgUpH3oi
girlfriends as Eric did during his college years.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtihtZBhFls
One866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWz6nPQltR
of Eric's flings happened to be Trina. Trina has always had her eye on 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv8sudJUhE
him for as long she could ever remember. She hoped that Eric would be 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd27WO9jkDQ
serious with her and the two of them would get into a relationship. But 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL4lsqHOoW
that was far from happening. Eric seemed too far to be committed into 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg6liZoxGN
one.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFmXtsqy9V
Not until he met Angel.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OZgrDVGDC
Trina866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPIs3MHdWM
smiled back at Eric after hugging him. She felt so excited to see him 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxZkNohpXV
in what felt like forever when it's only been close to two weeks.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78sYdlaGET
"I haven't heard from you like forever," said Trina. "Are you ignoring me now?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYSQ0tH5Nc
"No, it's not like that," said Eric. "Please, take a seat."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyNp38HRTC
Trina866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3qslvS6pm
did as she was told. She wore a sky blue sleeveless dress, flared and 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIuJ3CW025
reaching above her knees. She wore white high heels and she had a cream 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhblToAkC0g
coloured handbag and lovely gold neck chain. She looked really 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugbeibg84e
beautiful.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBmBKwdFFz
But to Eric, not as beautiful as Angel.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclqe85HHO1
"Then866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPNKugNkuG
what is it, Eric?" Trina asked. "I thought we were friends. And after 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bwozcppJm
what happened on the wedding day, we're supposed to be by each other's 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVVhBv8c6o
side to try and work things out."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXD7UOuuAS
"Work things out with Leo?" Eric raised an eyebrow as he soon settled down on his chair. "You already know how stubborn he is."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB1F5Oa6fe
"I know. I do feel so bad for Kim."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yDIjvupr4
"Ya, me too."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fzjjRhC9K
"She didn't deserve what Leo did to her."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5JDawkeny
Eric didn't say anything as he went back to looking at his computer.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNQjelooLJ
"Do you know something, Eric?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJweiUdKwA
Eric went back to looking at Trina. "Know what?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmoAEsAtyi
"Why Leo broke up with Kim? Do you know?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbihYYVhORj
"No, I don't," Eric lied without hesitation. "After all that happened he just changed his mind."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebzylrypto
"But there has to be a reason. Is it because he fell in love with someone else?" Trina asked with an eyebrow raised.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFr1ZnL7bx
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyNILvmIjM
almost gulped but that would only show Trina that he was lying and that866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOTWLVi33s
he was definitely hiding something. Instead, he playfully rolled his 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmloCC8xXVF
eyes with a corky smile on his face.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfvulw4nzv
"Please,866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP47XnVP6Qv
Trina, if there was someone, I would know. Besides, he never told me 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cXUgjU7ln
why he changed his mind. So instead of interrogating me, why don't you 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm7qQVmJiV
ask him?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOJ7QrmsxS
Trina866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1YhS22H8s
almost dropped her mouth wide open in shock but she quickly said, "you 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81HH3gQJ3V
know I can't do that. Leo is scary to talk to sometimes. I asked you 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpsSVZuHFy
because you're almost like his best friend and he tells you everything."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZuuam7szy
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAkWVFvVmk
smiled. "He is. But this time around, he really didn't tell me why he 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZgVkBgrM8
did that. I guess he had a change of heart of some sorts."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BEDF7RFJ6
"Do you think it has something to do with that girl he hit his car with that day?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCChyUoQUJ
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT7YN6Lkbf
soon went pale as he didn't know how to answer the question. He went 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXajlwVAgw
back to looking at his computer screen and tapped away on the mouse, 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN2HlACR2i
clicking on the desktop, pretending to look busy as he thought of what 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGdBJopdxb
to say next.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8JV5YGT4T
"Uh, Eric," Trina called out to him. "Aren't you going to answer me? Does it have to do with that girl?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCF6jYwx2U
"You're asking me the wrong question, Trina," he answered, looking at her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBXMYMxhrX
"What do you mean? You were there, weren't you, when the accident happened?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBFp1tuTBv
"Yes, but to be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with her."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yPcIyo79F
"Are you sure? How is she by the way?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnx81mudIy
"She's866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXsvWJC67J
okay." Eric didn't want to give Trina any more details about the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAh8S2ptrI
Barclay sisters. If anything, Trina only knew about Angel and not Carly.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLkzCe5MKR
He was afraid giving her more information might prove to be lethal in 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExJt8hIvva
the end. She was Kim's best friend after all and he knew she was only 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhndyDmhzY
here to get information from him because Leo wouldn't talk to her 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRXKmKjZQu
anymore.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquVZiJ2wk9
"Is that why you have been completely ignoring me? Because of the accident?" Trina asked.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISED2gqoHt
"Ignoring you?" Eric chuckled but blushed at the same time. "What do you mean?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ23pyJ1c4W
Trina866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5wKV6D9Pq
soon stood up from her seat and the smile on Eric's face soon died 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjfrYICqyW
away. She came over to where he sat standing behind his chair. He 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKb0wLvNtv
suddenly felt her hands on his shoulders as she slowly started to 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKYdead2Bj
massage him.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CHfaqmJbM
"You've been ignoring me, Eric," said Trina, slowly. "Was it because of the accident or did I do something wrong?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CsukrcXVf
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmSgFh3EPu
raised an eyebrow as he tried to figure out the right words to use. 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtRq0bfyRW
What happened to Angel had kept him a little busy but that wasn't the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzBt57ZnYh
full truth. He had grown fond of Angel from the very first day he saw 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwePVUZ4Kh
her. When she was involved in the accident, he felt like it was his duty866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq00oT0Kp01
to be by her side and take care of her. That's why he was always there 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU67BvurzV
everyday at the hospital to check up on her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMYJeEZj8c
He866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40SBJEeyYS
didn't know he would care for someone who wasn't his family that much 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0gn2SPHKY
like he did for Angel. There was something about her that made him think866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj5994ObFZ
of her always. Nowadays even when he was to see any beautiful lady 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMmrQCDmiW
walking across the street, he would end up thinking of Angel and how he 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY84LeMRRke
just wanted to be by her side at that very moment.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbcuItLuyW
"Hey?" Trina brought Eric back from his thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJODo6mExoT
"Nothing," he answered. "I just realised I have a lot of things to do today."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa3zvf3ikj
"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."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvZC1XjneN
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk86Vc6PGO
felt a sudden discomfort on his shoulders and he soon propped up on his866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsepZlmEVah
seat giving Trina a sign to stop what she was doing.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHWGkQyhaA
"What's wrong?" Trina sounded a little worried. "Don't you like my massage?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuteEnABe8
"It's not that, Trina," said Eric. "I just have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done today."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LaiS2hPU6
"Oh,866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD0lAEojVH
I'm sorry." Trina soon walked away from Eric and went back to her chair866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo233R22Tah
to get her handbag. Eric couldn't help but blow out a puff of air 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhH2xpnYCo
silently from his mouth, relieved that Trina was leaving.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKbfGTwY33
"Maybe we can try and catch up with each other sometime," said Trina as she turned to look at Eric.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN38UWPEr9
"Ya, we should," he said hoping that it wouldn't be any time soon.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeIiXs6tVe
Trina866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQlThAHoXi
smiled at him and just as she was about to walk over to him to give him866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAqfGaYSAM
who knows what, the door to Eric's office flew open.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4etDexUdg
Leo866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCSTwV8tO7
stepped into the room and he paused when he saw Trina. Trina couldn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4RaMfFQqp
help but feel her cheeks blush in embarrassment upon seeing Leo.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36Is1eMgV0
"There's a thing called knocking, you know," Eric said feeling rather glad that Leo was here.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45Fj0024Vh
"I didn't know you had company," said Leo as he turned to look at his cousin.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8e2cwBCiP
"Isn't Emily at her desk?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgRDlXuq0M
Leo show his head. "She must have stepped out for tea."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjGvZMUlyP
Eric rolled his eyes. Typical Emily.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqfb2ZwKXQ
"I was just leaving," said Trina.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtIG5Wlels
"Okay," said Eric. "I would have loved to escort you out but I'm rather busy as you can see."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡde9FhvuVJK
"It's fine," said Trina giving Eric a bright smile which soon faded away when she turned to look at Leo.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R2LYeTH09
With866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSmUDYo33u
her bag in her hand, Trina quickly made her way for the door. Leo stood866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCJRvWQQaQ
aside for her to pass and she was out of the office in seconds.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbsPqAqSOf
"What was she doing here?" Leo asked as he closed the door after her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqNYvJgZZV
"What do you think?" Eric asked as he went back to sit on his chair.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ091suM6ZS1
"Acting as Kim's informant, I presume," Leo answered as he approached Eric's table.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRcaWUNgFt
"Yep. But don't worry, I didn't tell her anything."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV96HElF4MJ
"I know you wouldn't. You're too smart for that."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqd0XlkATR
"She thought the reason why you broke things up with Kim was because of the accident."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC0sDvOonb
"It's best they think that way. I don't have to explain anything to anyone."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTNEZaDOcA
"Well, you would someday."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE6JZ7rmd1
Leo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpDmzM5wuL
"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?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCTP7BQvl3
"That would be fine by me."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2208MsHWjI
"Oh,866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YkECKNJ2y
really? Then how are you going to explain yourself to Kim? Because at 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZB9rbbzHZ
that time, she would realise that the person you ran over is Angel who 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvAxTTcpz1
happens to be the sister whom you fell in love with and the reason why 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwaAMVBtf0
you broke things off with her."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y45Gdu40B
"Please, it's not like she's going to figure it out."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFZc1CMtM3
"She will. Kim isn't that much of a blonde, you know."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlQ0PbLsBP
"Okay, enough about Kim. It's already hard enough that Trina was even here. She annoys me sometimes."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuFonFvXj5
"And she's afraid of you. Your presence in my office made her run out of here like she had met her worst nightmare."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sPmjnP5Zx
"I am everybody's worst nightmare." Leo smirked.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡligJFg1Rzi
"Not to Angel." Eric smirked back. "If anything, she seems like one who always puts you back in your place."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPl0S5zBxB
Leo866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiHeYbOFKo
blushed as he remembered his conversation with her back home at the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6mxRKnrWf
patio and how she made fun of him because Amanda made him apologise to 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AdkIJ50Y0
her.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxEmDgMABG
"Now what's with that face, dear cousin?" Eric asked in a mocking tone.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ123tX0AEqo
"What face?" Leo asked trying to be stoic.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTazHZjIPJ6
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1roDZ7Rvrv
smiled as his index finger made a circle in the air as though 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXbo3W0OsA
highlighting Leo's face. "The look on your face tells me you were 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jLkAq0KTY
thinking about Angel just now."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtywdrZymto
Leo shook his head. "No, I wasn't."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCzJ6CVs6F
"Yes, you were," said Eric with glee. "Did something happen between the two of you before you came here?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYIWg8RLhD
Leo866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCSQ2Ne0mG
was caught in between telling Eric the truth or keeping what happened 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCydITpbXEj
all to himself. He couldn't tell him that he had apologised to Angel 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVjVkpK8j5
because his grandmother made him do so. It would hurt his ego.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro2GqopOSB
"Hey? Aren't you going to tell me or not? It's the reason why you're here, right?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3KEn8gdHf
"What makes you say that?" Leo asked see with his arms folded.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXhpiz55L9
"Because,866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeJPM8ZPYU
whenever you want to let something out of your chest, you want to let 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkdGyrBrUe
it out or else you would burst. And besides, you just came in here 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w8VDDPzjc
without even knocking first meaning it's really bothering you and you're866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHGvAChx9u
in a sense of emergency to release it."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡols1bkYL9Z
Leo looked at Eric as he settled on the chair Trina had occupied minutes ago. "You know me so well."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXAEOiXi0h
"Of866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6y7oVvehE
course, I do," said Eric as he raised his eyebrows. "I'm your best 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvL0YsPv6Qd
friend after all. Now, tell me what happened between you and my sweet 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrl5MryZHb0
darling, Angel."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx6Xku6SUN
"Angel isn't sweet. She's a pain in the neck and she's only out there to get me."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTmyoeHnld
"Continue." Eric couldn't help but grin.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTp01IPrmLw
Leo ended up telling Eric all that had happened with Amanda, Angel and himself back home.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl9U8b4uGI
"And you think it was all Angel's fault?" Eric asked after Leo finished his story.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbOGlIM1QY
"Well, ya," Leo answered. "She even made fun of me about it after grandma left."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnP0TY1G7u
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."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqhsoZTfQt
"Grandma866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSY7fCJMoO
already likes her, that's why. And I'm afraid this might not be the 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrlXpGqXD5
only time she will ever get the upper hand in things."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPjQbq7KIQ
"What do you mean? Is there something I should know about?"866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKFrTZvlZh
Leo866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbc2JxhUvjy
wanted to tell Eric about his grandmother's suggestion of bringing 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHOWzuSSot
Angel to work at the McDonell company. But he promised he wouldn't say a866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZklCXvd9Ji
word to anyone.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvHhGJkZtY
"I'll leave that up to grandma to tell you," he said. "I simply can't say anything."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf63FoCSTq
"Alright," said Eric. "It seems grandma has a surprise for us, right? Then I better hear it from her then."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qnRBqAj2Z
"Yep,866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXf9RYeZiHD
it's a surprise indeed." Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Anyway, I866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSGi1ZnLDz
better get back to work." He stood up from the chair.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1ktbGeEwg
"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.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmffrsSVsPY
"Let me guess, the Lady Supreme."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVQ77giqUp
"Just because grandma favours her, doesn't mean that she will always have the upper hand, Leo."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbmYQp4dJz
"You'll be surprised. It seems things are all going in her favour."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX4EUIRQuM
Eric866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHS2gb34bO
smirked as he closed his eyes. "You're just upset because for once in 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDqUAHzeJj
your life, you've met the one person whose up to your level in terms of 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjvxsCARXs
attitude that's it's difficult to bring them down."866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijJvxzkGax
Leo866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9OOIPyK4z
looked at his cousin and he didn't know whether to give him a slap, 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJxsp8kgb5
which he was wanting to do so badly, or just let him be. He slowly 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXOYNt8Z7d
turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ow0jcJJdx
He866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstiC0tZCau
couldn't get what his cousin said out in his head and it stuck in his 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS2T9DZ5SM
mind even as he reached the office and looked at the documents on his 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXSGd2GgEP
desk that he had to look at today.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuz6is9Tdp4
Could it be that Leo and Angel were alike in terms of attitude and that somehow, Angel had the upper hand?866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzd6e7td0da
Leo866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlIvEVgHz2
shook his head as he finally settled down behind his desk. He wasn't 866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSdQUxY0TW
going to dwell on the issue forever. He had a lot of work to do.866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEG4nehMjHj
And it would take a lot more time for him to finally realise that he might have finally met his match.
