Angel was in the living 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe6PWZ1g6S
room with Amanda. The doctor had just finished checking up on both of 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6EpTNbCRl
them and was leaving for the door after biding them goodbye.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iyTPBCbx9
"So, how was it?" Amanda asked immediately the doctor had left.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2pjbNN6mj
"How was what?" Angel asked.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3myZdaX30
"Getting to know Leo?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMHRpiNWhc
Angel could have sworn 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76JwAC9NnE
that a ghost had just passed by because she suddenly went pale. She 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9go7QstXll
turned towards the window wondering what to say to Amanda.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfTIFYUkiY
"Umm, it pretty much went okay," said Angel as she turned to look at Amanda in front of her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjnwl33Vix
"Really?" Amanda looked a883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxMxwZTHJL
little concerned. "I noticed the way you came in from the patio and I 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCannzXXsj3
thought I saw a sad look on your face. Did Leo say something that might 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgHT50LAxD
have offended you?" 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrZczAAkr2
"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."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczVJ6qHtMI
"But Leo should have helped you back in. Why didn't he do that?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMmh8lqacN
"I didn't tell him. We spent a lot of time talking and I didn't want to worry him with my pain."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQkrJhQPsl
"Awww, you're so 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUy5ogk1Vx
considerate, my dear. But right now, you'll need a lot more help you can883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFio5KOGc37
get before you fully recover. Anyway, the doctor said you are doing 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQtLTPQsrA
well and that you will get better in no time. Maybe then, you will be 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhmo1aadMT
able to walk around freely again without any difficulty or pain."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL41TSulf5
"You have no idea how I miss walking. I can't wait to do things and get back to work."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDEijyVeE3
"Speaking about work, what do you do for a living, dear?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6i3FD8v6F
"Well, I work at an editing company. It isn't much but I enjoy what I do."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWPsYmaFLj
Amanda gave Angel the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4xfcSdfXd
kindest smile. "That's nice and decent. I figured you're one who loves 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vGjkSFSoQ
to deal with writing. It suits you."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4GmY3KEfR
Angel smiled back. Amanda was really nice that Angel couldn't think of any nice words or gesture to give back.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkLh6GFJ2k
Amanda then snapped her fingers. "I just thought of something just now."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUakKURryY
"What is it?" Angel asked.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCejNQrVWg7
"You seem to be one 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpAfzq2pWw
person who really loves their job so much, but just as you said earlier,883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYavmahCMjS
it's not paying you enough. And I think, you Angel, deserve the best."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkXGchMZYb
Angel couldn't tell where all of this was going, so she waited for Amanda to carry on.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFEocSCuFn
"How about you start working for us? At the MacDonell Technology Construction Company?" Amanda asked.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXP5AgfkkX
"What?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2lM58aC2b
Angel's face became paler as she heard that voice.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoDsblDZ6J
Leo who had just come in883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0VRzoKiFQ
from the patio, heard the whole thing. He was standing in the foyer, 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNO58Poz0b
just at the entrance of the living room.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO4mpG5GEe
"What did you just say 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhMmt5mmeB
now, grandma?" Leo asked as he stepped in the living room and approached883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoXDmQngAI
the two women on the wheelchairs.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP8K2Ai4AB
Amanda turned her 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWJIvYesdI
wheelchair around and looked at Leo. "Don't start acting like your 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ540vLgz7BE
mother like she hasn't heard anything and wants someone to repeat 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeZwxFsOIz
themselves."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnT6GV051dV
"I just can't believe what you're saying right now," said Leo. "Did you just ask Angel to join us at our company?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7yImxxdTc
"Yes," said Amanda with a billion dollar smile on her face. "Won't that be nice?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwyM6Ou0UL
Leo couldn't believe 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZ7WLowGzf
what he was hearing as he slowly met eyes with Angel. Even she couldn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ0Ikr8R5m
tell why Amanda had suggested this in the first place.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4brnBKvEY
"Haven't you thought 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYah9HiWWvc
this through, grandma?" Leo asked, feeling somewhat confused. "I mean, 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPno4iAIHN
what makes you think Angel could come and work for us? Doesn't she have a883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G19Fj9cA2
job of her own?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO2WPVFs9r
"Leo's right," said Angel. "I already have a job and I don't see why I have to trade it for another."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyJIjYaWUP
"You deserve better, my 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwpdVij5bf
dear," said Amanda as she looked at Angel. "I haven't said anything 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVHErpT2YP
wrong. I'm just giving you a chance to do something better."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM2MewJSNY
"But grandma, you can't do that, you know," said Leo. "Angel should be willing to come and work at our company."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw7xVNwBFB
"If you ask me, your father would agree to this too."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXtEx54d3L
"What makes you so sure?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4XJoCPJAn
"I know your father. And he will think exactly the same."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGzinGkzGR
"Mum won't though."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6hTy5qNiX
"Does she run the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYBpiaU4bY
company?" Amanda raised an eyebrow at her grandson. "She might be 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbqetccoQF
married to your father and have a share in the company, but she doesn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVgHUcyKLq
make decisions. Your father and I do with other shareholders."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2d35Bihul2
Leo knew his grandmother883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo5TCrrTnN
was right and there was no way to oppose her. But he still couldn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pkbw25lxM
believe that she wanted Angel to work at the company. His mother might 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVcuMnYnhJ
not make any major decisions concerning the company, but she sure as 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gsdkuv6A3
hell wasn't going to agree with Angel working there.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2iDHYygom
"I think I am going to work now," said Leo who couldn't take all of this anymore.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE9GXST8D0
"Don't say any of this 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjzRy2Wmmh
to anyone yet," Amanda warned him. "I'll have to talk to your father 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkXsnvQfYq
first and then smooth talk your mother, which is the most unpleasant 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX4s75Bj0t
thing I'll have to do in my life. And....," she looked at Angel. "I'll 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhMPXlTaqv
have to convince her a little more than I have to."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AmsGr2hGX
Angel gulped. It felt 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouOV9a1t93
like Amanda was going to give her a lesson of her life when she was only883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNbyEuIq2M
trying to convince her to join the McDonells.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgfqm84JKf
Leo made his way out of 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwCV3nXdqN
the room without a second thought of staying to try and convince his 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUYLAGRMhe
grandmother to change her mind. He was about to head up the stairs so 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAh9zFT0aFo
that he could go to his room and get his car keys and other things when 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHexumn5L0
his mother appeared, making her way down the stairs.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5V9iHNyNO
"Oh, Leo," said Mrs McDonell as she reached the bottom of the stairs where her son stood. "You already had your breakfast?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJFUOriCcv
"I had breakfast with everyone else," Leo answered. "May you excuse me, I have to go for work."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbTP84Qn4Z
"Wait, Leo, I need you to....."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb1Q2YSJ0T
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.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIYSxo66Sl
"Looks like he's still mad at you," said Amanda from the living room.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM3j3w0nXv
"I wonder when you're ever going to mind your own business," said Mrs McDonell as she made her way into the living room.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzyjvHABQi
"When I finally leave this place." Amanda gave her daughter-in-law a smile. "I know what you're up to."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoN1BEKrUH
Mrs McDonell folded her arms. "I don't know what you're talking about."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlWkAI7IEt
"I'm talking about Kim."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwrchUCzXH
Angel didn't know if it 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hW1ZMr3AC
was right to be in this room and listen to their conversation. The way 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7r8WkLhxr
she saw it, Amanda and Mrs McDonell seem to have some long time feud. It883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEPjxZjeIb
didn't seem serious, but it was dangerous for anyone else apart from 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmL6zVqkxtD
the two to be involved in. They were family so it was quiet normal to 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNgq4yjzSl
argue. But there was something between the two women that Angel could 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWiHylC2Bh
feel but couldn't put together. Did these two really hate each other 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegTtj7kVN1
just as much or was it they have a bit of a conflict when it came to 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA2QQJ1crd
certain things?883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAJs2UAUBU
"Kim is good for Leo. You should know better," said Mrs McDonell.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EHMCe8M0U
"If she was that good, then why did Leo call off the wedding?" Amanda asked.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXKVRWjNYv
Angel felt like covering883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bxaaW8trm
her ears. Kim was the girl Leo was supposed to marry and she couldn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZhmtf4rax
help but feel awful about it. Only a few people knew why Leo ended 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1oTgNST1t
things with her. It wasn't just about the accident that ruined the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCX6qLAA1S
wedding day to begin with, but because of Leo's sudden love for Carly.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o9ihxFA3K
"There was an accident that day," said Mrs McDonell. Angel knew she would say that.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRau0lmzBjp
"Ya, but a few days later, he confronted Kim and told her that he didn't want to marry her anymore," said Amanda.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWvwBFc9Fd
Angel felt her heart 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzJL3ic6uW
skip a beat. She couldn't help but feel this was all her fault. Maybe if883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3WCMNlnsp
she knew what Carly was up to from the beginning and stopped her, this 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD5iPjApJf
wouldn't have happened. Leo would have never laid his eyes on Carly and 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43yOKgH4sX
would have gotten married and they would never have known each other to 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nzI4zHIMD
begin with. That's if Mr McDonell hadn't visited her mother on that day 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQzt2gG06j
and invited her to the wedding.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hCDokLXDM
"Don't start with me," said Mrs McDonell.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzrceyu4B6
"But you know perfectly well that it is the truth," said Amanda.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZM7cLII5q
Angel looked at Amanda 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKp5e9P3Ke
and then at Mrs McDonell. She soon noticed Leo coming down the stairs. 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQo5OLjS8v
She cleared her throat as a warning to the two ladies arguing.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL84ncncx9B
Amanda and Mrs McDonell 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALYHeGNjej
noticed Angel clearing her throat and when they both looked at her, they883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbUlyPGrP0
saw her eyes looking into the foyer. They didn't utter a word when they883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyt5ECB02e
saw Leo.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EVsGZtwub
"What's going on?" Leo asked. "Why are you so quiet?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ9jYPqB6J
"Nothing, dear," said 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaT2DTmozI
Amanda. "Just arguing over what to have for supper. You know your mother883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVR4qaKshG
hates it when I try to take over the kitchen for a day."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hATt9o6G4
"Okay. I'll be going to work then."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuin1XAUz0a
"Have a nice day."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiZQfnXjAU
"Have a nice day, Leo," said Mrs McDonell.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAM1ZbawGe
Leo nodded his head in 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEPHrEGDSa
acknowledgment. He looked at Angel and Angel looked back at him. They 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8JNDo2RoP
stared at each other for a little while before Leo nodded his head at 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1V1RMlNW9U
her and she did the same back to him. Then he walked out of the house 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDJO940zwH
through the front door.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxJEHhxgJa
"Where were we?" Amanda asked looking up at Mrs McDonell.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKiWc5nfoW
"You're unbelievable," 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc0slhMuce
said Mrs McDonell with her hands shaking in the air like she couldn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyW7TzOdCD
take it anymore. "I'm going to have my breakfast."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgwqqH9GcT
Mrs McDonell quickly left the living room. Angel looked on as she left. This family had some drama for sure.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzNorN2e7F
"I'm sorry for that, 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxEoV3LVex
dear," said Amanda as she took Angel's hand into hers. "Don't mind her. 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwu7vQ8pHiR
She could be a bit cranky sometimes."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Am2GDear7
"You don't have to remind me," said Angel, remembering how Mrs McDonell reacted upon seeing her and Carly's luggage yesterday.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKle48W01t
"I think I argued too much I need to take a little rest. I hope you don't mind."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU1yNAiCnT
"No, I don't. You need the rest. Come to think of it, I think I'll take a little nap too."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOuVtfPkgE
"Alright, let's go to our rooms then."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cdueyiQ2s
Angel slowly followed 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IFzVlgOLn
Amanda. While she rolled herself out of the room, she couldn't help but 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PucCISOuR
think about Kim. She could only imagine how devastated Kim was after her883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqySHVoBHAx
wedding was called off and then your fiancé ends things for good. She 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRY64LgyP8
must have felt awful.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7HXa4NvWz
Angel couldn't help but feel sorry for her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSrOrKxWDy
***883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qw9k6t5kQ
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagWOqaB7mK
couldn't stop smiling to himself as he looked up at the ceiling 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsGThaa7qR
wondering why he couldn't stop getting lost in his own head.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyPyCIRT67
He883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zcPxZ16Pw
propped upright on his chair as he went back to looking at his 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97DMgklJ4r
computer. He bit his lower lip as he leaned back further in his chair 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkcGSqfjk2
and went up to looking at the ceiling again.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDAWO9x2sn
"Oh, Angel, what are you doing to me?" he asked himself with a smile on his face.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdJrZCuzJG
Since883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6diH9Ngzf
he left for work this morning, he couldn't stop thinking about Angel. 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSSFqGvbB1
As much as he has been seeing her everyday even when she was in 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcJkCSOz97
hospital, he never thought of her as much as he has today. He wondered 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AuBhkkJib
why he couldn't stop thinking about her. Did he like her that much?883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSGA3E1j7n
Who883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbsgMkye2B
wouldn't? She's nice and very beautiful, almost like an angel. And her 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbt3OzaJhf
black and red hair made her look strikingly more beautiful. And her soft883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3y1YLU6gl
brown eyes were intriguing to look at and get mesmerised.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwo6brMXmm
He883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnq7OAbrpC
imagined looking into those eyes right now that he didn't hear his 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9JeitYGjM
landline on the desk ringing at first. It was when it rang the second 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFusYzFeQk
time that he managed to get out of his daydream and answer the call.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyQY1n41Lf
"Yes?" he answered knowing that it was his secretary, Emily.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqYa73RPLv
"You've someone here to see you."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOiyexJ4XN
"Who is it?" Eric rolled his eyes in irritation. He really didn't like being disturbed when he was daydreaming.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgtoY10tcC
"It's Trina."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY3TjloUqH
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwriIptQ4n
hadn't heard that name in a long time. Trina? What could she be doing 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4bv2VZnto
here? They hadn't been in touch for a long time since the wedding got 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEp71QblTd
called off.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKJzqzwO3J
"Tell her to come in," he said putting the hand phone back on the receiver.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNDM7tzJ7a
The door to his office flew open and and Trina stepped into the room.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DA89SdudO
"Hi, Eric," said Trina with a smile on her face.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgM1LELdbv
"Trina, hi," said Eric as he got up from his chair and went round the table to her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L10Jmki8p
Trina883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72nihTzlts
gave him a hug and Eric didn't feel that much comfortable as he used to883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLNU66CSBX
when Trina gave him hugs. The two were friends. They weren't so close, 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm7pFbsqOJ
but they were friends anyway, because of Leo and Kim. The four of them 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvqM4EGOc9
were almost like a gang during their school years though they used to 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs337r0oc6k
fall out sometimes but still get back together.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaBnPoD2Jp
Now883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWiTQlFb7H
that they were all grown up, they weren't much as friends as they used 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqlOgXP25q
to since Kim and Leo fell in love with each other and started dating in 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1yz8HUlpC
high school and straight throughout college. It still didn't mean they 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUss25Nlg7
weren't friends.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkIi6I8hZe
While883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCvznlKbSR
Kim and Leo were in love, Eric was more of a play boy. He was handsome 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTm3F56QMLR
after all and everywhere he went, ladies fell for him. It wasn't that 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlDnzte1ko
Leo is handsome. He really is. It's just that he was already taken and 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7UHkuJChP
way too early for that matter, so he didn't get to have as many 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UkpCXcddW
girlfriends as Eric did during his college years.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOPzNZaVUz
One883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGRMlWrEMp
of Eric's flings happened to be Trina. Trina has always had her eye on 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1Ix0CkXax
him for as long she could ever remember. She hoped that Eric would be 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20hrQou1lf
serious with her and the two of them would get into a relationship. But 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54sIONLfh7
that was far from happening. Eric seemed too far to be committed into 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4pAojyLVo
one.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEJo3iTbol
Not until he met Angel.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYigFDYctU
Trina883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWe8ebbCJA
smiled back at Eric after hugging him. She felt so excited to see him 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElXOZn0Hfh
in what felt like forever when it's only been close to two weeks.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOiRNkUNYo
"I haven't heard from you like forever," said Trina. "Are you ignoring me now?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxajuMz2EGj
"No, it's not like that," said Eric. "Please, take a seat."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKxlzB9dlu
Trina883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHax3IdOe9
did as she was told. She wore a sky blue sleeveless dress, flared and 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGSWkTRNnw
reaching above her knees. She wore white high heels and she had a cream 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU14lJRYfy
coloured handbag and lovely gold neck chain. She looked really 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36gx1Mv8fX
beautiful.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hm1qeN7qB
But to Eric, not as beautiful as Angel.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWu1KzLhIM
"Then883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHSGLZi0oQ
what is it, Eric?" Trina asked. "I thought we were friends. And after 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifGWUvE8lk
what happened on the wedding day, we're supposed to be by each other's 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZhiHtZB0r
side to try and work things out."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoRStixtFG
"Work things out with Leo?" Eric raised an eyebrow as he soon settled down on his chair. "You already know how stubborn he is."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2qJQw0UxV
"I know. I do feel so bad for Kim."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVEfJLCflF
"Ya, me too."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2v06uWZfR
"She didn't deserve what Leo did to her."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyh2dsggux
Eric didn't say anything as he went back to looking at his computer.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnNFL7FKVz
"Do you know something, Eric?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSIdJc7UcD
Eric went back to looking at Trina. "Know what?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3vBlMELq7
"Why Leo broke up with Kim? Do you know?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01TzJOhuTT
"No, I don't," Eric lied without hesitation. "After all that happened he just changed his mind."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFLzWaGKhu
"But there has to be a reason. Is it because he fell in love with someone else?" Trina asked with an eyebrow raised.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwYt4UZsGG
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g1Rnb5XGG
almost gulped but that would only show Trina that he was lying and that883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4JiHDpOoO
he was definitely hiding something. Instead, he playfully rolled his 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAsxqmpyzu
eyes with a corky smile on his face.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqelBILQGL
"Please,883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9i6PriK7E
Trina, if there was someone, I would know. Besides, he never told me 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJKPU2GIQV
why he changed his mind. So instead of interrogating me, why don't you 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFRUm2csWg
ask him?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGH1xpbykdF
Trina883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFadP62YY41
almost dropped her mouth wide open in shock but she quickly said, "you 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb15qycNlmx
know I can't do that. Leo is scary to talk to sometimes. I asked you 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lWU1gpLyt
because you're almost like his best friend and he tells you everything."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEYOVcX7H9
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0ehJyY6Wx
smiled. "He is. But this time around, he really didn't tell me why he 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLurdC6CJb
did that. I guess he had a change of heart of some sorts."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw6lPnCz1S
"Do you think it has something to do with that girl he hit his car with that day?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDW3DQ8hdG
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN1180hSlL
soon went pale as he didn't know how to answer the question. He went 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPkzZ6feuv
back to looking at his computer screen and tapped away on the mouse, 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhd7RUWSDmg
clicking on the desktop, pretending to look busy as he thought of what 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9FsEqfT3x
to say next.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzBazUZhby
"Uh, Eric," Trina called out to him. "Aren't you going to answer me? Does it have to do with that girl?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1Wz71ARhL
"You're asking me the wrong question, Trina," he answered, looking at her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpzQoiD8NR
"What do you mean? You were there, weren't you, when the accident happened?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAKauyPzx7
"Yes, but to be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with her."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgjEFxUvos
"Are you sure? How is she by the way?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhmZrC8WSd
"She's883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbxFlSSYD0
okay." Eric didn't want to give Trina any more details about the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OhBsZvTtE
Barclay sisters. If anything, Trina only knew about Angel and not Carly.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhED6UeqFH
He was afraid giving her more information might prove to be lethal in 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFoH4UFKsd
the end. She was Kim's best friend after all and he knew she was only 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEuObNykmp
here to get information from him because Leo wouldn't talk to her 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfSr5mTyxY
anymore.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar49MHPm2Z
"Is that why you have been completely ignoring me? Because of the accident?" Trina asked.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyggC7wC6zl
"Ignoring you?" Eric chuckled but blushed at the same time. "What do you mean?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BXlIJ5h6e
Trina883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqzE8pDBA6
soon stood up from her seat and the smile on Eric's face soon died 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNkw2bjpPl
away. She came over to where he sat standing behind his chair. He 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt6ObYADn8
suddenly felt her hands on his shoulders as she slowly started to 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN9zlYJxTr
massage him.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzz4tO5wnU
"You've been ignoring me, Eric," said Trina, slowly. "Was it because of the accident or did I do something wrong?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjoAiLoBq9
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6B2ze0xGp
raised an eyebrow as he tried to figure out the right words to use. 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DurjXGbJl
What happened to Angel had kept him a little busy but that wasn't the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9n5kYL4SD
full truth. He had grown fond of Angel from the very first day he saw 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUizKHyuC7
her. When she was involved in the accident, he felt like it was his duty883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPikfTctEpg
to be by her side and take care of her. That's why he was always there 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVbx4cjoh1
everyday at the hospital to check up on her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpM86BgN003
He883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k6uqUDpcs
didn't know he would care for someone who wasn't his family that much 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O3hvj4emj
like he did for Angel. There was something about her that made him think883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8GxSMoES8
of her always. Nowadays even when he was to see any beautiful lady 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PeChbiARJ
walking across the street, he would end up thinking of Angel and how he 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ90N1U6eaO
just wanted to be by her side at that very moment.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQozQEYpJab
"Hey?" Trina brought Eric back from his thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinHCsD5aXq
"Nothing," he answered. "I just realised I have a lot of things to do today."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VzvVdZKf3
"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."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBFKXVveAp
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0x4hhcPki
felt a sudden discomfort on his shoulders and he soon propped up on his883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOA1JGzUdk
seat giving Trina a sign to stop what she was doing.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlxU8mkYPX
"What's wrong?" Trina sounded a little worried. "Don't you like my massage?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJOioJo7HR
"It's not that, Trina," said Eric. "I just have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done today."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GV6ZbzNcE
"Oh,883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomdlaTheH9
I'm sorry." Trina soon walked away from Eric and went back to her chair883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7io09sOatn
to get her handbag. Eric couldn't help but blow out a puff of air 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BRyD84hBk
silently from his mouth, relieved that Trina was leaving.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvALiRcmtrD
"Maybe we can try and catch up with each other sometime," said Trina as she turned to look at Eric.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEHinPmOYk
"Ya, we should," he said hoping that it wouldn't be any time soon.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyTiyAE9bK
Trina883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFi0eEwqBl
smiled at him and just as she was about to walk over to him to give him883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRAmQM7clQ
who knows what, the door to Eric's office flew open.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hj577yB8n
Leo883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMbJbU6Avc
stepped into the room and he paused when he saw Trina. Trina couldn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCGRYHXkB3
help but feel her cheeks blush in embarrassment upon seeing Leo.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15KRx5xgoN
"There's a thing called knocking, you know," Eric said feeling rather glad that Leo was here.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNtSWy5Bq9
"I didn't know you had company," said Leo as he turned to look at his cousin.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVroADtA6v
"Isn't Emily at her desk?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8oH0QLlXw
Leo show his head. "She must have stepped out for tea."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ763xfjADdu
Eric rolled his eyes. Typical Emily.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdppkdWs4zM
"I was just leaving," said Trina.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9dSNzkjbG
"Okay," said Eric. "I would have loved to escort you out but I'm rather busy as you can see."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY0hdUAPoQ
"It's fine," said Trina giving Eric a bright smile which soon faded away when she turned to look at Leo.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWV6qw2eXL
With883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBleQf0vG5B
her bag in her hand, Trina quickly made her way for the door. Leo stood883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGFfG456qH
aside for her to pass and she was out of the office in seconds.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOqaI58BcB
"What was she doing here?" Leo asked as he closed the door after her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErwDIRskha
"What do you think?" Eric asked as he went back to sit on his chair.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY8Og1kTfZ
"Acting as Kim's informant, I presume," Leo answered as he approached Eric's table.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6qOIewBfS
"Yep. But don't worry, I didn't tell her anything."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRUUV3ozkL
"I know you wouldn't. You're too smart for that."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzSIJEalp9
"She thought the reason why you broke things up with Kim was because of the accident."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlcGV1cF8X
"It's best they think that way. I don't have to explain anything to anyone."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpwPeImcVo
"Well, you would someday."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwP8TsQ2sB
Leo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyrlQygO6f
"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?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgkEkGvEZt
"That would be fine by me."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw9fL7GzGr
"Oh,883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTrNSeWQjp
really? Then how are you going to explain yourself to Kim? Because at 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjolUqPeTb
that time, she would realise that the person you ran over is Angel who 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqeg1jNZjB
happens to be the sister whom you fell in love with and the reason why 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jkzMiIwWA
you broke things off with her."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz1LAJulyZ
"Please, it's not like she's going to figure it out."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bQONKXX89
"She will. Kim isn't that much of a blonde, you know."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7riRgtbKFz
"Okay, enough about Kim. It's already hard enough that Trina was even here. She annoys me sometimes."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjoUggPv87
"And she's afraid of you. Your presence in my office made her run out of here like she had met her worst nightmare."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHCnicljZ3
"I am everybody's worst nightmare." Leo smirked.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxepCWwPmd
"Not to Angel." Eric smirked back. "If anything, she seems like one who always puts you back in your place."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p4RULdhq5
Leo883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltNNGMBPBj
blushed as he remembered his conversation with her back home at the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBFYsesEdP
patio and how she made fun of him because Amanda made him apologise to 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHf0FwRaTt
her.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtsB2RRQ2N
"Now what's with that face, dear cousin?" Eric asked in a mocking tone.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FvBhYShUO
"What face?" Leo asked trying to be stoic.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbFw11JKYy
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadXXhs5C4A
smiled as his index finger made a circle in the air as though 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6EvvXwsmH
highlighting Leo's face. "The look on your face tells me you were 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTCeLS4KRD
thinking about Angel just now."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOdMa4n7vm
Leo shook his head. "No, I wasn't."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPU8PjWVvi
"Yes, you were," said Eric with glee. "Did something happen between the two of you before you came here?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoa91Ahygw
Leo883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwQFvaMq8v
was caught in between telling Eric the truth or keeping what happened 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtd0RbKUZeM
all to himself. He couldn't tell him that he had apologised to Angel 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNtYt5vimx
because his grandmother made him do so. It would hurt his ego.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqicYoxJQ2k
"Hey? Aren't you going to tell me or not? It's the reason why you're here, right?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCxn7nh7ll
"What makes you say that?" Leo asked see with his arms folded.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl95ZlYzUfC
"Because,883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh25fduvap
whenever you want to let something out of your chest, you want to let 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ710srUmjvv
it out or else you would burst. And besides, you just came in here 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvkLtNeyZE
without even knocking first meaning it's really bothering you and you're883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzozCeNTXZL
in a sense of emergency to release it."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaqS4GExNu
Leo looked at Eric as he settled on the chair Trina had occupied minutes ago. "You know me so well."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr5Kvub7c5
"Of883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSWTrZWENZ
course, I do," said Eric as he raised his eyebrows. "I'm your best 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF0YnWBllW
friend after all. Now, tell me what happened between you and my sweet 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9N8nPNMOO
darling, Angel."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGTLcLPpIx
"Angel isn't sweet. She's a pain in the neck and she's only out there to get me."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLnHQVYtyk
"Continue." Eric couldn't help but grin.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1ahxXe1B8
Leo ended up telling Eric all that had happened with Amanda, Angel and himself back home.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qJTpsTxLD
"And you think it was all Angel's fault?" Eric asked after Leo finished his story.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA5ld0nnFh
"Well, ya," Leo answered. "She even made fun of me about it after grandma left."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDBonyFXAK
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."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VXNBH2PPN
"Grandma883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreY7dkPoWd
already likes her, that's why. And I'm afraid this might not be the 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFZm9c5ccb
only time she will ever get the upper hand in things."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwybxVP9hT
"What do you mean? Is there something I should know about?"883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3aPNTrEAq
Leo883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vaclNnV4M
wanted to tell Eric about his grandmother's suggestion of bringing 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7rH5BCOOg
Angel to work at the McDonell company. But he promised he wouldn't say a883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40aTNiTZqS
word to anyone.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXSD17bJ6I
"I'll leave that up to grandma to tell you," he said. "I simply can't say anything."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg9lq7ShNb
"Alright," said Eric. "It seems grandma has a surprise for us, right? Then I better hear it from her then."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3H2IJxnwq
"Yep,883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs060Ux34xW
it's a surprise indeed." Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Anyway, I883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnAKnx7rTX
better get back to work." He stood up from the chair.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxFvOhZgPM
"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.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfES1OSp0o9
"Let me guess, the Lady Supreme."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL312j08eoI
"Just because grandma favours her, doesn't mean that she will always have the upper hand, Leo."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXqpOABuOu
"You'll be surprised. It seems things are all going in her favour."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0ljk27Q9g
Eric883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr0Wi3Xdw0
smirked as he closed his eyes. "You're just upset because for once in 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtL8tW45hm
your life, you've met the one person whose up to your level in terms of 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiMYoWmoSB
attitude that's it's difficult to bring them down."883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AukkZ3sNx
Leo883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE23rQENb5
looked at his cousin and he didn't know whether to give him a slap, 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIi1oENW14b
which he was wanting to do so badly, or just let him be. He slowly 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWSmY3Kip8
turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcOnHw4zFq
He883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa6z38rxxd
couldn't get what his cousin said out in his head and it stuck in his 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSUEMpptOT
mind even as he reached the office and looked at the documents on his 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuskS32qw95
desk that he had to look at today.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiYNkcEYKL
Could it be that Leo and Angel were alike in terms of attitude and that somehow, Angel had the upper hand?883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sNDLPVauS
Leo883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxEXqfkBSI
shook his head as he finally settled down behind his desk. He wasn't 883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZWNma6YSk
going to dwell on the issue forever. He had a lot of work to do.883Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBovlHQ6RK
And it would take a lot more time for him to finally realise that he might have finally met his match.
