Angel was in the living 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbLkvV9POe
room with Amanda. The doctor had just finished checking up on both of 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3M63Fmtg0
them and was leaving for the door after biding them goodbye.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipPBI1l921
"So, how was it?" Amanda asked immediately the doctor had left.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZoHJDlcTh
"How was what?" Angel asked.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaf3YihkiI
"Getting to know Leo?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBhQxzGWla
Angel could have sworn 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTLoG0rI69
that a ghost had just passed by because she suddenly went pale. She 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ufsLKDvft
turned towards the window wondering what to say to Amanda.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZgskEDejC
"Umm, it pretty much went okay," said Angel as she turned to look at Amanda in front of her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MISRZUSBU
"Really?" Amanda looked a809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKor7m2htNF
little concerned. "I noticed the way you came in from the patio and I 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszNl54thWA
thought I saw a sad look on your face. Did Leo say something that might 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxOoSEC6hr
have offended you?" 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECAc4yHcd3
"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."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jkKbU9xhZ
"But Leo should have helped you back in. Why didn't he do that?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX6sKY9Czj
"I didn't tell him. We spent a lot of time talking and I didn't want to worry him with my pain."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeIHZZ429c
"Awww, you're so 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMUO2IXmro
considerate, my dear. But right now, you'll need a lot more help you can809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51M0N9NEho
get before you fully recover. Anyway, the doctor said you are doing 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlLt1RaDVl
well and that you will get better in no time. Maybe then, you will be 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0hosMSsDg
able to walk around freely again without any difficulty or pain."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuk3lih76xe
"You have no idea how I miss walking. I can't wait to do things and get back to work."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAWHY7mn77
"Speaking about work, what do you do for a living, dear?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxbMtHPJgB
"Well, I work at an editing company. It isn't much but I enjoy what I do."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2O88OckGJo
Amanda gave Angel the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3xuEa85jk
kindest smile. "That's nice and decent. I figured you're one who loves 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG2PvP0Brn
to deal with writing. It suits you."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowloCgAaVk
Angel smiled back. Amanda was really nice that Angel couldn't think of any nice words or gesture to give back.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMOdWnKvBy
Amanda then snapped her fingers. "I just thought of something just now."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQjKfXsi7n
"What is it?" Angel asked.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr3pcjz2Q5
"You seem to be one 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3o4JkkTBD
person who really loves their job so much, but just as you said earlier,809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1HImwvF4e
it's not paying you enough. And I think, you Angel, deserve the best."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTTIg2kYSu
Angel couldn't tell where all of this was going, so she waited for Amanda to carry on.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Utm5yF24b
"How about you start working for us? At the MacDonell Technology Construction Company?" Amanda asked.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC5zKdMuh7
"What?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zzcrQsux7
Angel's face became paler as she heard that voice.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHYLxwI5oI
Leo who had just come in809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0cCSFciDn
from the patio, heard the whole thing. He was standing in the foyer, 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCNDQ0NMDS
just at the entrance of the living room.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rSV2Fi8qh
"What did you just say 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zEAvGfTJb
now, grandma?" Leo asked as he stepped in the living room and approached809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMn6BK4c1S
the two women on the wheelchairs.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1UaGH41Wo
Amanda turned her 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrhVPu8lF6
wheelchair around and looked at Leo. "Don't start acting like your 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBDEEz61vA
mother like she hasn't heard anything and wants someone to repeat 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RJjWKevho
themselves."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYYAft34vv
"I just can't believe what you're saying right now," said Leo. "Did you just ask Angel to join us at our company?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7u4jJJOTb
"Yes," said Amanda with a billion dollar smile on her face. "Won't that be nice?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5jfVNxivl
Leo couldn't believe 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyfMsC8jh0
what he was hearing as he slowly met eyes with Angel. Even she couldn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjvXbjRKsn
tell why Amanda had suggested this in the first place.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3JoTTRlg3
"Haven't you thought 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uS4oRE1ij
this through, grandma?" Leo asked, feeling somewhat confused. "I mean, 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9kAWLeUwY
what makes you think Angel could come and work for us? Doesn't she have a809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU81ZzsMjKx
job of her own?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskeBzXDvxe
"Leo's right," said Angel. "I already have a job and I don't see why I have to trade it for another."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTOxZkVmkP
"You deserve better, my 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXQlUyXTWm
dear," said Amanda as she looked at Angel. "I haven't said anything 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIER1uF2rxc
wrong. I'm just giving you a chance to do something better."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zqudpsEGc
"But grandma, you can't do that, you know," said Leo. "Angel should be willing to come and work at our company."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAenuPAv3LK
"If you ask me, your father would agree to this too."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmC6VR0UD2
"What makes you so sure?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHjfLLQ2Pr
"I know your father. And he will think exactly the same."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexii893dqo
"Mum won't though."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCevxBpbyXY
"Does she run the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitEXwFKAKb
company?" Amanda raised an eyebrow at her grandson. "She might be 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tR1IqoiD7
married to your father and have a share in the company, but she doesn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2JWXZY9BV
make decisions. Your father and I do with other shareholders."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD5odCdpUn
Leo knew his grandmother809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49QkHeXCT1
was right and there was no way to oppose her. But he still couldn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsaUvPsQJ5
believe that she wanted Angel to work at the company. His mother might 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyfoIaPtf6
not make any major decisions concerning the company, but she sure as 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz6bcE20pn
hell wasn't going to agree with Angel working there.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUGWULt1cU
"I think I am going to work now," said Leo who couldn't take all of this anymore.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GV5SkWS87
"Don't say any of this 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIjfO85Rd5
to anyone yet," Amanda warned him. "I'll have to talk to your father 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NMZzj8VCg
first and then smooth talk your mother, which is the most unpleasant 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNg7dUgiQ0
thing I'll have to do in my life. And....," she looked at Angel. "I'll 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDSHduYpkX
have to convince her a little more than I have to."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVD9p2aqLW
Angel gulped. It felt 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2RR6YwYp2
like Amanda was going to give her a lesson of her life when she was only809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8MEbwx9iz
trying to convince her to join the McDonells.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0edIMZhvb
Leo made his way out of 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP7nZLmJq1
the room without a second thought of staying to try and convince his 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjIhJI1FRP
grandmother to change her mind. He was about to head up the stairs so 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4Arz8LezJ
that he could go to his room and get his car keys and other things when 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43Ow7rr7Sj
his mother appeared, making her way down the stairs.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFbBlpucd4
"Oh, Leo," said Mrs McDonell as she reached the bottom of the stairs where her son stood. "You already had your breakfast?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdsn0bQKTK
"I had breakfast with everyone else," Leo answered. "May you excuse me, I have to go for work."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNE1AXWOsb
"Wait, Leo, I need you to....."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3L1lTmAg1
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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLXhyQrh3h
"Looks like he's still mad at you," said Amanda from the living room.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxEbRUlx9G
"I wonder when you're ever going to mind your own business," said Mrs McDonell as she made her way into the living room.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uCg1AbHWU
"When I finally leave this place." Amanda gave her daughter-in-law a smile. "I know what you're up to."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8T8Fx2VpEh
Mrs McDonell folded her arms. "I don't know what you're talking about."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD2wElFIUp
"I'm talking about Kim."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlsLG8n6ga
Angel didn't know if it 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZK7iMyExx
was right to be in this room and listen to their conversation. The way 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrAsiTNo2F
she saw it, Amanda and Mrs McDonell seem to have some long time feud. It809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qHofzoW2R
didn't seem serious, but it was dangerous for anyone else apart from 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs1K7DL3CJ
the two to be involved in. They were family so it was quiet normal to 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rmn13DDSZ
argue. But there was something between the two women that Angel could 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5GmeBhvIb
feel but couldn't put together. Did these two really hate each other 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZf6KprbM2
just as much or was it they have a bit of a conflict when it came to 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46i2NdTFb5
certain things?809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZgd0kcB73
"Kim is good for Leo. You should know better," said Mrs McDonell.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENNiOGEMrZ
"If she was that good, then why did Leo call off the wedding?" Amanda asked.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5CoZqJccK
Angel felt like covering809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4nFd14EOJ
her ears. Kim was the girl Leo was supposed to marry and she couldn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVtFlqAnfO
help but feel awful about it. Only a few people knew why Leo ended 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiNql0vnGK
things with her. It wasn't just about the accident that ruined the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGymA1bSJWA
wedding day to begin with, but because of Leo's sudden love for Carly.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTbdewHrr3
"There was an accident that day," said Mrs McDonell. Angel knew she would say that.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst54aiHiI6
"Ya, but a few days later, he confronted Kim and told her that he didn't want to marry her anymore," said Amanda.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mwMLz6ZoP
Angel felt her heart 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASjecOslyF
skip a beat. She couldn't help but feel this was all her fault. Maybe if809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n8ZEF0Tog
she knew what Carly was up to from the beginning and stopped her, this 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTvFu15Zus
wouldn't have happened. Leo would have never laid his eyes on Carly and 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUULpLrgp7
would have gotten married and they would never have known each other to 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkrfBLw1wh
begin with. That's if Mr McDonell hadn't visited her mother on that day 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz3h3382YX
and invited her to the wedding.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvWSO6QKyA
"Don't start with me," said Mrs McDonell.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwNogWLaJT
"But you know perfectly well that it is the truth," said Amanda.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9B5lOxpxC
Angel looked at Amanda 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRsvP7pJsp
and then at Mrs McDonell. She soon noticed Leo coming down the stairs. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDYveCDrwi
She cleared her throat as a warning to the two ladies arguing.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Alf8XYoaY
Amanda and Mrs McDonell 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMGKC3XF8b
noticed Angel clearing her throat and when they both looked at her, they809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHoosj7nxm
saw her eyes looking into the foyer. They didn't utter a word when they809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0K72JgfNB
saw Leo.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9qQdMksz2
"What's going on?" Leo asked. "Why are you so quiet?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5530Ot2M5d
"Nothing, dear," said 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhng1V7JNRD
Amanda. "Just arguing over what to have for supper. You know your mother809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQgNNic37u
hates it when I try to take over the kitchen for a day."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgja28crgxT
"Okay. I'll be going to work then."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEd66HMSmmE
"Have a nice day."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv2uYX2ET7
"Have a nice day, Leo," said Mrs McDonell.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RryvMUXLw
Leo nodded his head in 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHJpr2iepK
acknowledgment. He looked at Angel and Angel looked back at him. They 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmAnJkjonj
stared at each other for a little while before Leo nodded his head at 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEotJ7yaw3
her and she did the same back to him. Then he walked out of the house 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5BQdPbgCR
through the front door.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7oMRgsDoq
"Where were we?" Amanda asked looking up at Mrs McDonell.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlzKOgbn9m
"You're unbelievable," 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HHruDSvbP
said Mrs McDonell with her hands shaking in the air like she couldn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IyqBTdR2q
take it anymore. "I'm going to have my breakfast."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6fvWg9Zid
Mrs McDonell quickly left the living room. Angel looked on as she left. This family had some drama for sure.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08BdrD155k
"I'm sorry for that, 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ho2FlNcBm
dear," said Amanda as she took Angel's hand into hers. "Don't mind her. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl94wgfLgAi
She could be a bit cranky sometimes."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eTrzcjSdc
"You don't have to remind me," said Angel, remembering how Mrs McDonell reacted upon seeing her and Carly's luggage yesterday.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPqDBHGX6Y
"I think I argued too much I need to take a little rest. I hope you don't mind."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NvcFJtdFU
"No, I don't. You need the rest. Come to think of it, I think I'll take a little nap too."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojCGGHytrO
"Alright, let's go to our rooms then."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShZoTVZ6yI
Angel slowly followed 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0dqkBhPIs
Amanda. While she rolled herself out of the room, she couldn't help but 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylKmeiba6P
think about Kim. She could only imagine how devastated Kim was after her809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nDc5uYkj3
wedding was called off and then your fiancé ends things for good. She 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPaKgVerMR
must have felt awful.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dO5xXoxw3
Angel couldn't help but feel sorry for her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErwD7asvVG
***809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7SvfieiYO
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OI2gRlIag
couldn't stop smiling to himself as he looked up at the ceiling 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbRJbnN6Md
wondering why he couldn't stop getting lost in his own head.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08HM1aow39
He809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHgM9UPqvy
propped upright on his chair as he went back to looking at his 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpmjHEBoBw
computer. He bit his lower lip as he leaned back further in his chair 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaLnsViIXw
and went up to looking at the ceiling again.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWXcjl0rFG
"Oh, Angel, what are you doing to me?" he asked himself with a smile on his face.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5X3DCEjsz
Since809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjFDObiKkf
he left for work this morning, he couldn't stop thinking about Angel. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS8zdA9NgP
As much as he has been seeing her everyday even when she was in 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRn0CYNvhz
hospital, he never thought of her as much as he has today. He wondered 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85QYt8Nw2Y
why he couldn't stop thinking about her. Did he like her that much?809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj6f3JZxeC
Who809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFDAGu3NSj
wouldn't? She's nice and very beautiful, almost like an angel. And her 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9oj3bSge4
black and red hair made her look strikingly more beautiful. And her soft809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN39g1TvPY
brown eyes were intriguing to look at and get mesmerised.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9IjhDmB6b
He809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTkpV14hfv
imagined looking into those eyes right now that he didn't hear his 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdLb9PZB8e
landline on the desk ringing at first. It was when it rang the second 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nrA8Yb8Qt
time that he managed to get out of his daydream and answer the call.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUBMaAumeH
"Yes?" he answered knowing that it was his secretary, Emily.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwaCjSWbRu
"You've someone here to see you."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7in7CG0U1
"Who is it?" Eric rolled his eyes in irritation. He really didn't like being disturbed when he was daydreaming.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs0UaTo0ex
"It's Trina."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi6bzMAgXG
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qFFB2jol6
hadn't heard that name in a long time. Trina? What could she be doing 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PnhndO1Nr
here? They hadn't been in touch for a long time since the wedding got 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqeK7dlPqk
called off.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4eceQ1ddJ
"Tell her to come in," he said putting the hand phone back on the receiver.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2B9iokUQW
The door to his office flew open and and Trina stepped into the room.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFij9SlRPi
"Hi, Eric," said Trina with a smile on her face.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIXXaN2uHn
"Trina, hi," said Eric as he got up from his chair and went round the table to her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH172b5fUL8
Trina809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpUsLkeQtm
gave him a hug and Eric didn't feel that much comfortable as he used to809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6W8gduN5Pl
when Trina gave him hugs. The two were friends. They weren't so close, 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiOs4w9feP
but they were friends anyway, because of Leo and Kim. The four of them 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwllHmREm88
were almost like a gang during their school years though they used to 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoKfMrrU1n
fall out sometimes but still get back together.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiulQI1pgUN
Now809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHJHhlNMfC
that they were all grown up, they weren't much as friends as they used 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AioF1AQwl
to since Kim and Leo fell in love with each other and started dating in 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yx457qixw
high school and straight throughout college. It still didn't mean they 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkl0TsQf48
weren't friends.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI2O7FjzpN
While809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4SDwpTK7t
Kim and Leo were in love, Eric was more of a play boy. He was handsome 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0ZEwlSA7i
after all and everywhere he went, ladies fell for him. It wasn't that 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWZu1rcQpx
Leo is handsome. He really is. It's just that he was already taken and 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7LjYW49KK
way too early for that matter, so he didn't get to have as many 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UF25ZywCT
girlfriends as Eric did during his college years.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDv8puiF0k
One809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ21dQNoAV
of Eric's flings happened to be Trina. Trina has always had her eye on 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkGPid3nLr
him for as long she could ever remember. She hoped that Eric would be 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWH6p49TDlk
serious with her and the two of them would get into a relationship. But 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHcAUiBWqz
that was far from happening. Eric seemed too far to be committed into 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWchgpsEXX
one.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SHiJvqTsC
Not until he met Angel.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ016ZCuyRfm
Trina809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3X1ufYs9R
smiled back at Eric after hugging him. She felt so excited to see him 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2thX9kTrSb
in what felt like forever when it's only been close to two weeks.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMhWP6Lndy
"I haven't heard from you like forever," said Trina. "Are you ignoring me now?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxCDFDBvr2
"No, it's not like that," said Eric. "Please, take a seat."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5KvmW2EFK
Trina809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGZUxCinPF
did as she was told. She wore a sky blue sleeveless dress, flared and 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbTyeWNXeq
reaching above her knees. She wore white high heels and she had a cream 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfBNWbbXJE
coloured handbag and lovely gold neck chain. She looked really 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63Ybhr8XTV
beautiful.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DU0F4hPzH
But to Eric, not as beautiful as Angel.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLp46Q00qn
"Then809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO4PsldPN9
what is it, Eric?" Trina asked. "I thought we were friends. And after 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wEoH2TL3h
what happened on the wedding day, we're supposed to be by each other's 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv7kVlVkXH
side to try and work things out."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZ5RgOCmES
"Work things out with Leo?" Eric raised an eyebrow as he soon settled down on his chair. "You already know how stubborn he is."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnbR7trnLh
"I know. I do feel so bad for Kim."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEobQ8cBos0
"Ya, me too."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdDl9o2DP6
"She didn't deserve what Leo did to her."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdL5jSqnr7
Eric didn't say anything as he went back to looking at his computer.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi4bThHsme
"Do you know something, Eric?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZx6IkivWc
Eric went back to looking at Trina. "Know what?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMnJq6a3P4
"Why Leo broke up with Kim? Do you know?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93fQItV0kz
"No, I don't," Eric lied without hesitation. "After all that happened he just changed his mind."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s6pFgxP27
"But there has to be a reason. Is it because he fell in love with someone else?" Trina asked with an eyebrow raised.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXSQymmE6c
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOjwr57Rvs
almost gulped but that would only show Trina that he was lying and that809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJgDdY9HYR
he was definitely hiding something. Instead, he playfully rolled his 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZg4UyeKSZL
eyes with a corky smile on his face.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GwUxAJ3p1
"Please,809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArsUKUtstd
Trina, if there was someone, I would know. Besides, he never told me 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq4RoOZIeU
why he changed his mind. So instead of interrogating me, why don't you 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPncV6sxEc
ask him?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iIjI43Jks
Trina809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoK7iVxJ8S
almost dropped her mouth wide open in shock but she quickly said, "you 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0PTGA4RZl
know I can't do that. Leo is scary to talk to sometimes. I asked you 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngzeUl4p5b
because you're almost like his best friend and he tells you everything."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO1EqaaEaR
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkEttNObE4
smiled. "He is. But this time around, he really didn't tell me why he 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyMWkMhuim
did that. I guess he had a change of heart of some sorts."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUphygGhis
"Do you think it has something to do with that girl he hit his car with that day?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0ZSaiW3lB
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwKoocI9gV
soon went pale as he didn't know how to answer the question. He went 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFUKDhn7Mh
back to looking at his computer screen and tapped away on the mouse, 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaouRvET4g
clicking on the desktop, pretending to look busy as he thought of what 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0xz6uboJ3
to say next.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHM7GLHcOZ
"Uh, Eric," Trina called out to him. "Aren't you going to answer me? Does it have to do with that girl?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFAUpwjGCw
"You're asking me the wrong question, Trina," he answered, looking at her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8AXAiF4xs
"What do you mean? You were there, weren't you, when the accident happened?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bkjIKSTms
"Yes, but to be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with her."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsGDbDSANw
"Are you sure? How is she by the way?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQdivof7bi
"She's809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPyAmN9VC1
okay." Eric didn't want to give Trina any more details about the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPD49x7HNW
Barclay sisters. If anything, Trina only knew about Angel and not Carly.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2YwVllsXe
He was afraid giving her more information might prove to be lethal in 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJZy8ELbCa
the end. She was Kim's best friend after all and he knew she was only 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3hKRq4EJS
here to get information from him because Leo wouldn't talk to her 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03u78z6v1P
anymore.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYO1NjDQSUw
"Is that why you have been completely ignoring me? Because of the accident?" Trina asked.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WGr9ln0UD
"Ignoring you?" Eric chuckled but blushed at the same time. "What do you mean?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOWbMWtHud
Trina809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK69Dbm9pB
soon stood up from her seat and the smile on Eric's face soon died 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0V0tdcEhD
away. She came over to where he sat standing behind his chair. He 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABd4d9OvPz
suddenly felt her hands on his shoulders as she slowly started to 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqipplcwTu
massage him.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByZqABGHbH
"You've been ignoring me, Eric," said Trina, slowly. "Was it because of the accident or did I do something wrong?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohNBlk6D9m
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQe99hNHj0
raised an eyebrow as he tried to figure out the right words to use. 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4oX8Rcqjc
What happened to Angel had kept him a little busy but that wasn't the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MludZCujx
full truth. He had grown fond of Angel from the very first day he saw 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrO7M6ds8a
her. When she was involved in the accident, he felt like it was his duty809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC7bTWEj2g
to be by her side and take care of her. That's why he was always there 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9y3Vkkf1GD
everyday at the hospital to check up on her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83wtzITGuL
He809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqbOCNRixU
didn't know he would care for someone who wasn't his family that much 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEP7tHqSr8e
like he did for Angel. There was something about her that made him think809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE9s5R44Dk
of her always. Nowadays even when he was to see any beautiful lady 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQw2yssxIgR
walking across the street, he would end up thinking of Angel and how he 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nJ9Kjf8H1
just wanted to be by her side at that very moment.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeKBqQtEcY
"Hey?" Trina brought Eric back from his thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczNmP8IzjG
"Nothing," he answered. "I just realised I have a lot of things to do today."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZpWIc0emR
"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."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LG8yIxBVm
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDi7oHjAYa
felt a sudden discomfort on his shoulders and he soon propped up on his809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPnUKFUNbw
seat giving Trina a sign to stop what she was doing.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsIKjWeVQL
"What's wrong?" Trina sounded a little worried. "Don't you like my massage?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgx0PrmvSL
"It's not that, Trina," said Eric. "I just have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done today."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OAo7lrbmu
"Oh,809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsqKH9LcJO
I'm sorry." Trina soon walked away from Eric and went back to her chair809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7qx1giC7t
to get her handbag. Eric couldn't help but blow out a puff of air 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIgOL5NH6L
silently from his mouth, relieved that Trina was leaving.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHI63vlHKG
"Maybe we can try and catch up with each other sometime," said Trina as she turned to look at Eric.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGRSWqWFmt
"Ya, we should," he said hoping that it wouldn't be any time soon.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYkL7uA8e1
Trina809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmAKuIiZoW
smiled at him and just as she was about to walk over to him to give him809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLBzcAbql4
who knows what, the door to Eric's office flew open.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlPx00CdH0
Leo809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTpAwTgC0F
stepped into the room and he paused when he saw Trina. Trina couldn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tzDJMlbZz
help but feel her cheeks blush in embarrassment upon seeing Leo.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTDRGuIJJq
"There's a thing called knocking, you know," Eric said feeling rather glad that Leo was here.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dfZDPBikA
"I didn't know you had company," said Leo as he turned to look at his cousin.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1MiPvN5u7
"Isn't Emily at her desk?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5hnJJYOGW
Leo show his head. "She must have stepped out for tea."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjH1RdF3C5
Eric rolled his eyes. Typical Emily.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6XxXL2mCu
"I was just leaving," said Trina.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsW2aexlqM
"Okay," said Eric. "I would have loved to escort you out but I'm rather busy as you can see."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rofsbvIp4
"It's fine," said Trina giving Eric a bright smile which soon faded away when she turned to look at Leo.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSxwF1737W
With809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpmo2EgDCy
her bag in her hand, Trina quickly made her way for the door. Leo stood809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnAYok20lq
aside for her to pass and she was out of the office in seconds.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetfxusekY5
"What was she doing here?" Leo asked as he closed the door after her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVoXTZbfiy
"What do you think?" Eric asked as he went back to sit on his chair.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuomBPANTK
"Acting as Kim's informant, I presume," Leo answered as he approached Eric's table.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tCP33k4db
"Yep. But don't worry, I didn't tell her anything."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nOokEzzLj
"I know you wouldn't. You're too smart for that."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf9kfRYqEN
"She thought the reason why you broke things up with Kim was because of the accident."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQED0AamOW
"It's best they think that way. I don't have to explain anything to anyone."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscjPyOy5uo
"Well, you would someday."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRLTYoMbWc
Leo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOkLHHmNKB
"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?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolIEN9gE7G
"That would be fine by me."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kNa9ybBeU
"Oh,809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQz2jrYngY
really? Then how are you going to explain yourself to Kim? Because at 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYem26kFx3L
that time, she would realise that the person you ran over is Angel who 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYohXUfOJ30
happens to be the sister whom you fell in love with and the reason why 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEsg0ATZrY
you broke things off with her."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjC7PZxpNl
"Please, it's not like she's going to figure it out."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnE2fHyBbx
"She will. Kim isn't that much of a blonde, you know."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkviNrfGmDQ
"Okay, enough about Kim. It's already hard enough that Trina was even here. She annoys me sometimes."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcITo0tm4Ra
"And she's afraid of you. Your presence in my office made her run out of here like she had met her worst nightmare."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSEXLVu7J7
"I am everybody's worst nightmare." Leo smirked.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXls4EVK0m
"Not to Angel." Eric smirked back. "If anything, she seems like one who always puts you back in your place."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vMSVBOngr
Leo809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFNrc7qRti
blushed as he remembered his conversation with her back home at the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwp6VDpqHKE
patio and how she made fun of him because Amanda made him apologise to 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DZgj5ak8V
her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX6snH8jDb
"Now what's with that face, dear cousin?" Eric asked in a mocking tone.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqvhSmk3kS
"What face?" Leo asked trying to be stoic.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoWMuy8Xhw
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi1a37G355
smiled as his index finger made a circle in the air as though 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2vs0alFDx
highlighting Leo's face. "The look on your face tells me you were 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpulIRUmeq6
thinking about Angel just now."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOjCNf2NuT
Leo shook his head. "No, I wasn't."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh0BE4ynfs
"Yes, you were," said Eric with glee. "Did something happen between the two of you before you came here?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrmrsknqMg
Leo809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtgeYPQcL9
was caught in between telling Eric the truth or keeping what happened 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8Drh46oKK
all to himself. He couldn't tell him that he had apologised to Angel 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaN0q8cXVo
because his grandmother made him do so. It would hurt his ego.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI7EMn7Z0e
"Hey? Aren't you going to tell me or not? It's the reason why you're here, right?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGuO9FB8GE
"What makes you say that?" Leo asked see with his arms folded.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVfQTXhNST
"Because,809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0fyMS5UnM
whenever you want to let something out of your chest, you want to let 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5640bC5nzO
it out or else you would burst. And besides, you just came in here 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEO2vlABej
without even knocking first meaning it's really bothering you and you're809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdFQ6XC8pM
in a sense of emergency to release it."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCRfQiPjuY
Leo looked at Eric as he settled on the chair Trina had occupied minutes ago. "You know me so well."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz3I1JfzqD
"Of809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN2DBVs3CU
course, I do," said Eric as he raised his eyebrows. "I'm your best 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfVYQvM9r7
friend after all. Now, tell me what happened between you and my sweet 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBY5JOiTAF
darling, Angel."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUiU9YVd8f
"Angel isn't sweet. She's a pain in the neck and she's only out there to get me."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV0Xax7XZh
"Continue." Eric couldn't help but grin.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSqcf5UC6b
Leo ended up telling Eric all that had happened with Amanda, Angel and himself back home.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7qTMBkNkZ
"And you think it was all Angel's fault?" Eric asked after Leo finished his story.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM6SuK2v6Z
"Well, ya," Leo answered. "She even made fun of me about it after grandma left."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil7XVGeKvc
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."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjNpzup5HU
"Grandma809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylVuRG5fsu
already likes her, that's why. And I'm afraid this might not be the 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzaje8ksF8
only time she will ever get the upper hand in things."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpA312ENsH
"What do you mean? Is there something I should know about?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpng2PNaVuq
Leo809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExYuZwu3AR
wanted to tell Eric about his grandmother's suggestion of bringing 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa7rd3CsQL
Angel to work at the McDonell company. But he promised he wouldn't say a809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcJtVHAVXf
word to anyone.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBW0MNo4mg
"I'll leave that up to grandma to tell you," he said. "I simply can't say anything."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIyrN0ZtX7
"Alright," said Eric. "It seems grandma has a surprise for us, right? Then I better hear it from her then."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEq6QN9tMC
"Yep,809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjFtlF2VS8
it's a surprise indeed." Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Anyway, I809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2zN8VjrSD
better get back to work." He stood up from the chair.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH3io2izlg
"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.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCXnxC1gSX
"Let me guess, the Lady Supreme."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1ULw9osLf
"Just because grandma favours her, doesn't mean that she will always have the upper hand, Leo."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Dcyc440Al
"You'll be surprised. It seems things are all going in her favour."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51iDq3o8Fx
Eric809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUsnVGgY7l
smirked as he closed his eyes. "You're just upset because for once in 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LIMf918Og
your life, you've met the one person whose up to your level in terms of 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPODsRIHbe
attitude that's it's difficult to bring them down."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkYUz1wkH3
Leo809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLlq5U6gp3
looked at his cousin and he didn't know whether to give him a slap, 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO906crDlG
which he was wanting to do so badly, or just let him be. He slowly 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfiabQ4T5a
turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasMSdsICdV
He809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡao2Upu0cHL
couldn't get what his cousin said out in his head and it stuck in his 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF62Z3PoBh
mind even as he reached the office and looked at the documents on his 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj9SsOroY5
desk that he had to look at today.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiT8e44UMh
Could it be that Leo and Angel were alike in terms of attitude and that somehow, Angel had the upper hand?809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2etuXsrxlB
Leo809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgOXURRxoZ
shook his head as he finally settled down behind his desk. He wasn't 809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalnm8kAIys
going to dwell on the issue forever. He had a lot of work to do.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF2svicSLh
And it would take a lot more time for him to finally realise that he might have finally met his match.
