Angel was in the living 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtQClbZDTX
room with Amanda. The doctor had just finished checking up on both of 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecFMYqsbV2
them and was leaving for the door after biding them goodbye.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpEgCTQ8Aa
"So, how was it?" Amanda asked immediately the doctor had left.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrquGF4bwuu
"How was what?" Angel asked.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDXPlyz7Jq
"Getting to know Leo?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJQRpCeSJD
Angel could have sworn 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiOfoH6izV
that a ghost had just passed by because she suddenly went pale. She 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazQ8eiPiSh
turned towards the window wondering what to say to Amanda.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHfR2cwCgF
"Umm, it pretty much went okay," said Angel as she turned to look at Amanda in front of her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruMcIJrdiQ
"Really?" Amanda looked a827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwMIJSCxew
little concerned. "I noticed the way you came in from the patio and I 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2L8DmtJrv
thought I saw a sad look on your face. Did Leo say something that might 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7gwGtkUrt
have offended you?" 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqBro0OlDZ
"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."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lKQOoRJas
"But Leo should have helped you back in. Why didn't he do that?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OL0UWBiyw
"I didn't tell him. We spent a lot of time talking and I didn't want to worry him with my pain."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAPFErK2a5
"Awww, you're so 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQycP2snaUA
considerate, my dear. But right now, you'll need a lot more help you can827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoQB8cv5Wo
get before you fully recover. Anyway, the doctor said you are doing 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnBdqOVnDT
well and that you will get better in no time. Maybe then, you will be 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko5usu42RX
able to walk around freely again without any difficulty or pain."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTrzYAVkat
"You have no idea how I miss walking. I can't wait to do things and get back to work."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvsCUm8iAY
"Speaking about work, what do you do for a living, dear?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW2plEXcu0
"Well, I work at an editing company. It isn't much but I enjoy what I do."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcFtbCyeFS
Amanda gave Angel the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IMky7tDcA
kindest smile. "That's nice and decent. I figured you're one who loves 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiWcbYhKyt
to deal with writing. It suits you."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXCCoO7eHL
Angel smiled back. Amanda was really nice that Angel couldn't think of any nice words or gesture to give back.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidumlsvmNm
Amanda then snapped her fingers. "I just thought of something just now."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNjrAliZgh
"What is it?" Angel asked.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60UkIPBvTN
"You seem to be one 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NJap9Fc9f
person who really loves their job so much, but just as you said earlier,827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWhfyrs0wz
it's not paying you enough. And I think, you Angel, deserve the best."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sdJKqGXNm
Angel couldn't tell where all of this was going, so she waited for Amanda to carry on.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLk6EAkSQS
"How about you start working for us? At the MacDonell Technology Construction Company?" Amanda asked.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOfiAsIcG0
"What?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW0okW2gHz
Angel's face became paler as she heard that voice.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK23lrVfd3P
Leo who had just come in827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JmpXSe7Ck
from the patio, heard the whole thing. He was standing in the foyer, 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhvbcapyJo
just at the entrance of the living room.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD1vCTElLO
"What did you just say 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2W8DcdlrU
now, grandma?" Leo asked as he stepped in the living room and approached827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9t9YKfSvo
the two women on the wheelchairs.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KSY4CacwI
Amanda turned her 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM47M2v16iH
wheelchair around and looked at Leo. "Don't start acting like your 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpiPxpCJsi
mother like she hasn't heard anything and wants someone to repeat 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOmqS4Er2w
themselves."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1PBoCCvf8
"I just can't believe what you're saying right now," said Leo. "Did you just ask Angel to join us at our company?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMj09J7BErK
"Yes," said Amanda with a billion dollar smile on her face. "Won't that be nice?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSublnV23sV
Leo couldn't believe 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaH4LtO4s2
what he was hearing as he slowly met eyes with Angel. Even she couldn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEqxQNod2H
tell why Amanda had suggested this in the first place.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fjEtKkn1s
"Haven't you thought 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgXAKfOmp5
this through, grandma?" Leo asked, feeling somewhat confused. "I mean, 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnNFcZHXhk
what makes you think Angel could come and work for us? Doesn't she have a827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9imcw75DxR
job of her own?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kJI96tdyY
"Leo's right," said Angel. "I already have a job and I don't see why I have to trade it for another."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0mUCBcKcu
"You deserve better, my 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdYIH0jxBA
dear," said Amanda as she looked at Angel. "I haven't said anything 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDQf8nQkQg
wrong. I'm just giving you a chance to do something better."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQs5S8gLYc
"But grandma, you can't do that, you know," said Leo. "Angel should be willing to come and work at our company."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2skmUn7om
"If you ask me, your father would agree to this too."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUN6ctgUZS
"What makes you so sure?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrERAErpkmJ
"I know your father. And he will think exactly the same."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAdheoXUxw
"Mum won't though."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2M7npHcBE
"Does she run the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzgEADN9zy
company?" Amanda raised an eyebrow at her grandson. "She might be 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2yhfXtlJt
married to your father and have a share in the company, but she doesn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurx7js7XyA
make decisions. Your father and I do with other shareholders."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgyQjWN7wU
Leo knew his grandmother827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYmCfNF1Cg
was right and there was no way to oppose her. But he still couldn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq7mdnrqeg
believe that she wanted Angel to work at the company. His mother might 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrXOy4CGZf
not make any major decisions concerning the company, but she sure as 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrnJUBSFIr
hell wasn't going to agree with Angel working there.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs15eOyO8H
"I think I am going to work now," said Leo who couldn't take all of this anymore.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7RfhLb8n0
"Don't say any of this 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6sISqNhu9
to anyone yet," Amanda warned him. "I'll have to talk to your father 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVYsifWSDq
first and then smooth talk your mother, which is the most unpleasant 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LnGS4JuRP
thing I'll have to do in my life. And....," she looked at Angel. "I'll 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrabUt2W6sy
have to convince her a little more than I have to."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vRbv2Gy26
Angel gulped. It felt 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYclj4exsv8
like Amanda was going to give her a lesson of her life when she was only827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIrbUFOc1i
trying to convince her to join the McDonells.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyedHt0GRcF
Leo made his way out of 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDbxPBLokV
the room without a second thought of staying to try and convince his 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DKlmZA5cu
grandmother to change her mind. He was about to head up the stairs so 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPYGL5ogie
that he could go to his room and get his car keys and other things when 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwR4l9BBSuM
his mother appeared, making her way down the stairs.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgJ8sXWVQC
"Oh, Leo," said Mrs McDonell as she reached the bottom of the stairs where her son stood. "You already had your breakfast?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySFUbpSscw
"I had breakfast with everyone else," Leo answered. "May you excuse me, I have to go for work."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQyH8YkFCd
"Wait, Leo, I need you to....."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ55x0Qog0B
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.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAihMpdh3O
"Looks like he's still mad at you," said Amanda from the living room.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafIG83JK6f
"I wonder when you're ever going to mind your own business," said Mrs McDonell as she made her way into the living room.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBJzwD59rD
"When I finally leave this place." Amanda gave her daughter-in-law a smile. "I know what you're up to."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNxz0F2gMJ
Mrs McDonell folded her arms. "I don't know what you're talking about."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVf9lEeYcuT
"I'm talking about Kim."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNi7VtDBrC
Angel didn't know if it 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyZHi5Rley
was right to be in this room and listen to their conversation. The way 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjMDN5leip
she saw it, Amanda and Mrs McDonell seem to have some long time feud. It827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EcrPUI0FT
didn't seem serious, but it was dangerous for anyone else apart from 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAWJ1JcXP9
the two to be involved in. They were family so it was quiet normal to 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlW882NGwO
argue. But there was something between the two women that Angel could 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiG13WwtQ8
feel but couldn't put together. Did these two really hate each other 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfWOrTmFEC
just as much or was it they have a bit of a conflict when it came to 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5vCkJnzPK
certain things?827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf3hAnGkh3
"Kim is good for Leo. You should know better," said Mrs McDonell.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahCjxt0oJr
"If she was that good, then why did Leo call off the wedding?" Amanda asked.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvcbdGSO08
Angel felt like covering827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1GIiJrxfN
her ears. Kim was the girl Leo was supposed to marry and she couldn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkDsaDWQ9b
help but feel awful about it. Only a few people knew why Leo ended 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdC3xYI5gp
things with her. It wasn't just about the accident that ruined the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxIeSyttuT
wedding day to begin with, but because of Leo's sudden love for Carly.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQwBjuCemv
"There was an accident that day," said Mrs McDonell. Angel knew she would say that.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZoBpPe4Yc
"Ya, but a few days later, he confronted Kim and told her that he didn't want to marry her anymore," said Amanda.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZYDgalBeT
Angel felt her heart 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbDgm7U6Lh
skip a beat. She couldn't help but feel this was all her fault. Maybe if827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlozrgqwZ6Y
she knew what Carly was up to from the beginning and stopped her, this 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLl5Xxe7Wt
wouldn't have happened. Leo would have never laid his eyes on Carly and 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z9zyvQQk0
would have gotten married and they would never have known each other to 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKfIk5wZHm
begin with. That's if Mr McDonell hadn't visited her mother on that day 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIalTOXalJ
and invited her to the wedding.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptNAST60Rn
"Don't start with me," said Mrs McDonell.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0CV9zwRj0
"But you know perfectly well that it is the truth," said Amanda.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdcIn4oKoq
Angel looked at Amanda 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEhEgUNMop
and then at Mrs McDonell. She soon noticed Leo coming down the stairs. 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wGybOxpz6
She cleared her throat as a warning to the two ladies arguing.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIev9mNg26
Amanda and Mrs McDonell 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WxYSX9LoV
noticed Angel clearing her throat and when they both looked at her, they827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY65360IYph
saw her eyes looking into the foyer. They didn't utter a word when they827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SQYqdRxC4
saw Leo.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWv2kBccbZ
"What's going on?" Leo asked. "Why are you so quiet?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgVhCP0GFc
"Nothing, dear," said 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup1MVszJKS
Amanda. "Just arguing over what to have for supper. You know your mother827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGdOnChzyG
hates it when I try to take over the kitchen for a day."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvx5g0XagI
"Okay. I'll be going to work then."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8RqY4GY4N
"Have a nice day."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdlhsCeHge
"Have a nice day, Leo," said Mrs McDonell.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8Dzt8uvoH
Leo nodded his head in 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zqNhMnhc3
acknowledgment. He looked at Angel and Angel looked back at him. They 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO8sJi8EjY
stared at each other for a little while before Leo nodded his head at 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTm60cTuxv
her and she did the same back to him. Then he walked out of the house 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOC0hmxYRy
through the front door.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2AMoKeZtC
"Where were we?" Amanda asked looking up at Mrs McDonell.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB10Gq4pc4
"You're unbelievable," 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtovJIZkuX
said Mrs McDonell with her hands shaking in the air like she couldn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlvitUOt8z
take it anymore. "I'm going to have my breakfast."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaelRLIMmby
Mrs McDonell quickly left the living room. Angel looked on as she left. This family had some drama for sure.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIdg2HXQ5Z
"I'm sorry for that, 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjrqRL0SPS
dear," said Amanda as she took Angel's hand into hers. "Don't mind her. 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4slBbKWybF
She could be a bit cranky sometimes."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp0MiG6pgg
"You don't have to remind me," said Angel, remembering how Mrs McDonell reacted upon seeing her and Carly's luggage yesterday.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqDyK6ZrUp
"I think I argued too much I need to take a little rest. I hope you don't mind."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRleeNfNTA5
"No, I don't. You need the rest. Come to think of it, I think I'll take a little nap too."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Q5LjLMMFx
"Alright, let's go to our rooms then."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDmry72pe0
Angel slowly followed 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOjUcwYnnO
Amanda. While she rolled herself out of the room, she couldn't help but 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2wTf04b8m
think about Kim. She could only imagine how devastated Kim was after her827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF8XySAKDk
wedding was called off and then your fiancé ends things for good. She 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2BGDUyoat
must have felt awful.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MYTWMeHvM
Angel couldn't help but feel sorry for her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PSLUUAY6P
***827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjjWxTZK5S
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1FaEADY6f
couldn't stop smiling to himself as he looked up at the ceiling 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0kf87LtQS
wondering why he couldn't stop getting lost in his own head.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8F2ODuIFF
He827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhj1yvpBRXs
propped upright on his chair as he went back to looking at his 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcgJxORN5G
computer. He bit his lower lip as he leaned back further in his chair 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTizQqrSoMH
and went up to looking at the ceiling again.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyZPrtmjL6
"Oh, Angel, what are you doing to me?" he asked himself with a smile on his face.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzfUe153Xo
Since827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjH9kPiYpv
he left for work this morning, he couldn't stop thinking about Angel. 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt53b3ZHth1
As much as he has been seeing her everyday even when she was in 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2NUD7rfYw
hospital, he never thought of her as much as he has today. He wondered 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEAgY5ORCK
why he couldn't stop thinking about her. Did he like her that much?827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKGmeVhkZJ
Who827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3cDqqLra2
wouldn't? She's nice and very beautiful, almost like an angel. And her 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7rx8Tzbb9
black and red hair made her look strikingly more beautiful. And her soft827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ukc6TZdaE
brown eyes were intriguing to look at and get mesmerised.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxS9NVbK6XX
He827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY3ODIsRt2
imagined looking into those eyes right now that he didn't hear his 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiDE7NhzJY
landline on the desk ringing at first. It was when it rang the second 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ubvxs8rGR
time that he managed to get out of his daydream and answer the call.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXFLUvI9e9
"Yes?" he answered knowing that it was his secretary, Emily.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbojHbW7DB
"You've someone here to see you."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYACXZAqnwS
"Who is it?" Eric rolled his eyes in irritation. He really didn't like being disturbed when he was daydreaming.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSNeJYsJBr
"It's Trina."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURjuU6VQWt
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyO778UWgO
hadn't heard that name in a long time. Trina? What could she be doing 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1laTz2J8i
here? They hadn't been in touch for a long time since the wedding got 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0Wco8bAqG
called off.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdicE2npQbZ
"Tell her to come in," he said putting the hand phone back on the receiver.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJqNvDF9nw
The door to his office flew open and and Trina stepped into the room.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MN58SMNyO
"Hi, Eric," said Trina with a smile on her face.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ551C6hXeJq
"Trina, hi," said Eric as he got up from his chair and went round the table to her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5Qjrqxcx1
Trina827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5goNc54fLT
gave him a hug and Eric didn't feel that much comfortable as he used to827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYESwDVdth
when Trina gave him hugs. The two were friends. They weren't so close, 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusinVqoS2x
but they were friends anyway, because of Leo and Kim. The four of them 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpOQRlQJC3
were almost like a gang during their school years though they used to 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvD7IqVX55
fall out sometimes but still get back together.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r7NkO1B6a
Now827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKDRjGFQnv
that they were all grown up, they weren't much as friends as they used 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sumU5MmuP
to since Kim and Leo fell in love with each other and started dating in 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡES7aXe7wLm
high school and straight throughout college. It still didn't mean they 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQWvv3p2Hg
weren't friends.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVSln1ebIo
While827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JK3VWJcai
Kim and Leo were in love, Eric was more of a play boy. He was handsome 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcVTvR5DNK
after all and everywhere he went, ladies fell for him. It wasn't that 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPhUAEPZlc
Leo is handsome. He really is. It's just that he was already taken and 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHOML7pVpM
way too early for that matter, so he didn't get to have as many 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CM2Hlszts
girlfriends as Eric did during his college years.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywnwtxHCEJ
One827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrgcyRENbx
of Eric's flings happened to be Trina. Trina has always had her eye on 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI1uJedRLa
him for as long she could ever remember. She hoped that Eric would be 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5amUNjSMK2
serious with her and the two of them would get into a relationship. But 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfjM7b6uey
that was far from happening. Eric seemed too far to be committed into 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWdJ09fS88
one.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFSyuvZTyv
Not until he met Angel.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fqX1lb1JQ
Trina827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2PGkQcavX
smiled back at Eric after hugging him. She felt so excited to see him 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRA5uoc8Aa
in what felt like forever when it's only been close to two weeks.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgnTXCWAoq
"I haven't heard from you like forever," said Trina. "Are you ignoring me now?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zdjRcABaJ
"No, it's not like that," said Eric. "Please, take a seat."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJQ56Wsauk
Trina827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Uhpd9RByB
did as she was told. She wore a sky blue sleeveless dress, flared and 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUPOw43RdU
reaching above her knees. She wore white high heels and she had a cream 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfTuh1uo4b
coloured handbag and lovely gold neck chain. She looked really 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOYRk3OGAd
beautiful.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdComP601Ay
But to Eric, not as beautiful as Angel.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUHRVot5MH
"Then827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5tVIn8Pmf
what is it, Eric?" Trina asked. "I thought we were friends. And after 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK9VlyChbu
what happened on the wedding day, we're supposed to be by each other's 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx9MmT1EBp
side to try and work things out."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebIn5jyZBE
"Work things out with Leo?" Eric raised an eyebrow as he soon settled down on his chair. "You already know how stubborn he is."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnYtYJD0mi
"I know. I do feel so bad for Kim."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypQdXA3WVH
"Ya, me too."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChnaJX30EX
"She didn't deserve what Leo did to her."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQUxbBonHZ
Eric didn't say anything as he went back to looking at his computer.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbdLEsDLu6
"Do you know something, Eric?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpnk1hdluk
Eric went back to looking at Trina. "Know what?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6E0IdlUo1
"Why Leo broke up with Kim? Do you know?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLLCEMXnir
"No, I don't," Eric lied without hesitation. "After all that happened he just changed his mind."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvvaxrYDVZ
"But there has to be a reason. Is it because he fell in love with someone else?" Trina asked with an eyebrow raised.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnfu72LWFX
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kuV4Cocys
almost gulped but that would only show Trina that he was lying and that827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ud2kcSD3U
he was definitely hiding something. Instead, he playfully rolled his 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9gOONnYtE
eyes with a corky smile on his face.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZnOZg6F4C
"Please,827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgREdCuyL8
Trina, if there was someone, I would know. Besides, he never told me 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobpwNdJh33
why he changed his mind. So instead of interrogating me, why don't you 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNl0U7NesXd
ask him?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxX0Ijbjfj
Trina827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7ht6t9UcK
almost dropped her mouth wide open in shock but she quickly said, "you 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHqo6M4OB5
know I can't do that. Leo is scary to talk to sometimes. I asked you 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RlqCnYScx
because you're almost like his best friend and he tells you everything."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGNv86eYJC
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFFPLV1r17
smiled. "He is. But this time around, he really didn't tell me why he 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVCPfugN6b
did that. I guess he had a change of heart of some sorts."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEGAFnD2k5
"Do you think it has something to do with that girl he hit his car with that day?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAENjgvWewq
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZXYH3FmB3
soon went pale as he didn't know how to answer the question. He went 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv6XIydL40
back to looking at his computer screen and tapped away on the mouse, 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiSMClQzpc
clicking on the desktop, pretending to look busy as he thought of what 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcrGPh1W2L
to say next.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMxuprsYAV
"Uh, Eric," Trina called out to him. "Aren't you going to answer me? Does it have to do with that girl?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLysPEsM4RB
"You're asking me the wrong question, Trina," he answered, looking at her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwdJUCeLxl
"What do you mean? You were there, weren't you, when the accident happened?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0NGiDyY4A
"Yes, but to be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with her."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2yYdb1lOt
"Are you sure? How is she by the way?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTX8pslafr
"She's827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThETnV8o02
okay." Eric didn't want to give Trina any more details about the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIFxaHN8DC
Barclay sisters. If anything, Trina only knew about Angel and not Carly.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcr5Z2kiGZ
He was afraid giving her more information might prove to be lethal in 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcPFAihlSr
the end. She was Kim's best friend after all and he knew she was only 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfRvSPu770
here to get information from him because Leo wouldn't talk to her 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNNYwrd8Ot
anymore.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiycBeOrHx4
"Is that why you have been completely ignoring me? Because of the accident?" Trina asked.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQnqtluOq8
"Ignoring you?" Eric chuckled but blushed at the same time. "What do you mean?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqjJSSg0QX
Trina827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjfRU0rax6
soon stood up from her seat and the smile on Eric's face soon died 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGTwNiRJOb
away. She came over to where he sat standing behind his chair. He 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFKTicFd95
suddenly felt her hands on his shoulders as she slowly started to 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQH9ChSHVji
massage him.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQP7RnePQo
"You've been ignoring me, Eric," said Trina, slowly. "Was it because of the accident or did I do something wrong?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wpPABbrzx
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpsdWcxcc4
raised an eyebrow as he tried to figure out the right words to use. 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOk9mZboHM
What happened to Angel had kept him a little busy but that wasn't the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8esOdUyMgh
full truth. He had grown fond of Angel from the very first day he saw 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm9gpctnUx
her. When she was involved in the accident, he felt like it was his duty827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99oS2uyCGo
to be by her side and take care of her. That's why he was always there 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrfaozxw8i
everyday at the hospital to check up on her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tvRebeSX8
He827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvOaGmI8l3
didn't know he would care for someone who wasn't his family that much 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaYbKYCTlh
like he did for Angel. There was something about her that made him think827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0EgTo8hI7
of her always. Nowadays even when he was to see any beautiful lady 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0JzqfoOBL
walking across the street, he would end up thinking of Angel and how he 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtRFNfK02W
just wanted to be by her side at that very moment.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0PVMWK05m
"Hey?" Trina brought Eric back from his thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0euPqeDonr
"Nothing," he answered. "I just realised I have a lot of things to do today."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9utXxcivC
"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."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJbUTJ3drZ
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0rJNPhjjJ
felt a sudden discomfort on his shoulders and he soon propped up on his827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfHUIePcyl
seat giving Trina a sign to stop what she was doing.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUf3soOc3R
"What's wrong?" Trina sounded a little worried. "Don't you like my massage?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJVDQKjolo
"It's not that, Trina," said Eric. "I just have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done today."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OEHFGZUEv
"Oh,827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWPjQrYWOV
I'm sorry." Trina soon walked away from Eric and went back to her chair827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc1KO0s3Ly
to get her handbag. Eric couldn't help but blow out a puff of air 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9RK9Y3FIF
silently from his mouth, relieved that Trina was leaving.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxtdjqC6Kz
"Maybe we can try and catch up with each other sometime," said Trina as she turned to look at Eric.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJPVR3kYWf
"Ya, we should," he said hoping that it wouldn't be any time soon.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2scaBVfcF9
Trina827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcLSf77O4g
smiled at him and just as she was about to walk over to him to give him827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRyEbORNsp
who knows what, the door to Eric's office flew open.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtPPHNS3jG
Leo827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x6nvvWme8
stepped into the room and he paused when he saw Trina. Trina couldn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRrZbkAyL6
help but feel her cheeks blush in embarrassment upon seeing Leo.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Tv4xXDJf9
"There's a thing called knocking, you know," Eric said feeling rather glad that Leo was here.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cuJi8vrRu
"I didn't know you had company," said Leo as he turned to look at his cousin.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI87IZbTs7v
"Isn't Emily at her desk?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRhjdJgHQT
Leo show his head. "She must have stepped out for tea."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlxltBvVOx
Eric rolled his eyes. Typical Emily.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIRIS7qWF7
"I was just leaving," said Trina.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVObLMJdaJk
"Okay," said Eric. "I would have loved to escort you out but I'm rather busy as you can see."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXGIJXCynf
"It's fine," said Trina giving Eric a bright smile which soon faded away when she turned to look at Leo.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBc90A4eQp
With827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZzWW7jrRV
her bag in her hand, Trina quickly made her way for the door. Leo stood827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJu44mC0mt
aside for her to pass and she was out of the office in seconds.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaisvYVult
"What was she doing here?" Leo asked as he closed the door after her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JaFbMvMLb
"What do you think?" Eric asked as he went back to sit on his chair.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nNjAiQLag
"Acting as Kim's informant, I presume," Leo answered as he approached Eric's table.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rAc6PCpPV
"Yep. But don't worry, I didn't tell her anything."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qmyNQDreP
"I know you wouldn't. You're too smart for that."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2PSMCGsdm
"She thought the reason why you broke things up with Kim was because of the accident."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSgqM0aE1n
"It's best they think that way. I don't have to explain anything to anyone."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeptVWfUK5
"Well, you would someday."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3r02Ozq6T
Leo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMT3LAEuxo
"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?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iSVfkJtk0
"That would be fine by me."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b3yqSNr2f
"Oh,827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTLKGbiBnM
really? Then how are you going to explain yourself to Kim? Because at 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6oNpmM7sW
that time, she would realise that the person you ran over is Angel who 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwrRAUS3Ug
happens to be the sister whom you fell in love with and the reason why 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpC0yxPF9A
you broke things off with her."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4WdqPl8WH
"Please, it's not like she's going to figure it out."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u8Xuk9m5u
"She will. Kim isn't that much of a blonde, you know."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMrhcTadP2
"Okay, enough about Kim. It's already hard enough that Trina was even here. She annoys me sometimes."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1wiXRO4aF
"And she's afraid of you. Your presence in my office made her run out of here like she had met her worst nightmare."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JPoVYtjCT
"I am everybody's worst nightmare." Leo smirked.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr8z8hFJli
"Not to Angel." Eric smirked back. "If anything, she seems like one who always puts you back in your place."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIhblTTtDa
Leo827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RLWHSM2rQ
blushed as he remembered his conversation with her back home at the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVqNyV6xuB
patio and how she made fun of him because Amanda made him apologise to 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIU0MYnYPK
her.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ759mfq6TF
"Now what's with that face, dear cousin?" Eric asked in a mocking tone.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡordMnV8b4B
"What face?" Leo asked trying to be stoic.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWVOqExcvO
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQR3mmSBD2I
smiled as his index finger made a circle in the air as though 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cSnkv6dNM
highlighting Leo's face. "The look on your face tells me you were 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WG5V1z3vm
thinking about Angel just now."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ3SLROnGG
Leo shook his head. "No, I wasn't."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2BjaDiw37
"Yes, you were," said Eric with glee. "Did something happen between the two of you before you came here?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96Le6ZlSTM
Leo827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZX4R0tSWx
was caught in between telling Eric the truth or keeping what happened 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWN4Ih3KUZ
all to himself. He couldn't tell him that he had apologised to Angel 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPwlBxdhIc
because his grandmother made him do so. It would hurt his ego.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwTJLiZQ6Q
"Hey? Aren't you going to tell me or not? It's the reason why you're here, right?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeMlJQ0XjD
"What makes you say that?" Leo asked see with his arms folded.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dUwLZzm11
"Because,827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5HW7R4GiX
whenever you want to let something out of your chest, you want to let 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPHw5oFCRv
it out or else you would burst. And besides, you just came in here 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR54eJSDmit
without even knocking first meaning it's really bothering you and you're827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3aolhlnQw
in a sense of emergency to release it."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmYzQq6wrV
Leo looked at Eric as he settled on the chair Trina had occupied minutes ago. "You know me so well."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfV5nnvA1hY
"Of827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxzYqfttPZ
course, I do," said Eric as he raised his eyebrows. "I'm your best 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RS37JDKTP
friend after all. Now, tell me what happened between you and my sweet 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGt6pzWcpsB
darling, Angel."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DJ7TlTP6x
"Angel isn't sweet. She's a pain in the neck and she's only out there to get me."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7RUhfmYpr
"Continue." Eric couldn't help but grin.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTNNz8BqDO
Leo ended up telling Eric all that had happened with Amanda, Angel and himself back home.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUOYFR8cDz
"And you think it was all Angel's fault?" Eric asked after Leo finished his story.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPhFPilNuK
"Well, ya," Leo answered. "She even made fun of me about it after grandma left."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzleDakTXVX
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."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucbtodm7Gx
"Grandma827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BSTlgNCtq
already likes her, that's why. And I'm afraid this might not be the 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6ECeynPTN
only time she will ever get the upper hand in things."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8t57Rtrpcs
"What do you mean? Is there something I should know about?"827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIfU2DkCrP
Leo827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdJRCrN9OZ
wanted to tell Eric about his grandmother's suggestion of bringing 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbV7LxOvXK
Angel to work at the McDonell company. But he promised he wouldn't say a827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5lAUCqE8G
word to anyone.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO0rq46eLq
"I'll leave that up to grandma to tell you," he said. "I simply can't say anything."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaPV1rHbfO
"Alright," said Eric. "It seems grandma has a surprise for us, right? Then I better hear it from her then."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOYU21P0lr
"Yep,827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0Q207yGUW
it's a surprise indeed." Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Anyway, I827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ecbxxVeqQ
better get back to work." He stood up from the chair.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsS55t3ATY
"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.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6jVEyptg5
"Let me guess, the Lady Supreme."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClvD4HN5Aa
"Just because grandma favours her, doesn't mean that she will always have the upper hand, Leo."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJlBRXTNys
"You'll be surprised. It seems things are all going in her favour."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fNsDaawfS
Eric827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1VCIdne4S
smirked as he closed his eyes. "You're just upset because for once in 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38fsAmS9ZC
your life, you've met the one person whose up to your level in terms of 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyYYOGhj2D
attitude that's it's difficult to bring them down."827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocN7NnYEAW
Leo827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6yREFG9Av
looked at his cousin and he didn't know whether to give him a slap, 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0baDo2lpyq
which he was wanting to do so badly, or just let him be. He slowly 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTwF9uqOwV
turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxoRHuelhP
He827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl1MNqkIhd
couldn't get what his cousin said out in his head and it stuck in his 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY4Zijsqla
mind even as he reached the office and looked at the documents on his 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKGzKZmMSc
desk that he had to look at today.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNze4kGssoF
Could it be that Leo and Angel were alike in terms of attitude and that somehow, Angel had the upper hand?827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAeds9tZNP
Leo827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlZqnFsvAu
shook his head as he finally settled down behind his desk. He wasn't 827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVERq81opla
going to dwell on the issue forever. He had a lot of work to do.827Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mvd3AjWAy
And it would take a lot more time for him to finally realise that he might have finally met his match.
