Angel was in the living 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA5HwLNcva
room with Amanda. The doctor had just finished checking up on both of 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyHFwpttYC
them and was leaving for the door after biding them goodbye.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z9RC4ffU8
"So, how was it?" Amanda asked immediately the doctor had left.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANDS3MtA5U
"How was what?" Angel asked.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYTEUdcvtZ
"Getting to know Leo?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwIMld2Uei
Angel could have sworn 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj4qIxwRgG
that a ghost had just passed by because she suddenly went pale. She 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq2Ro1VCTJ
turned towards the window wondering what to say to Amanda.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Mu3tAPLX
"Umm, it pretty much went okay," said Angel as she turned to look at Amanda in front of her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Wz7yDPZl4
"Really?" Amanda looked a663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1ITin45zR
little concerned. "I noticed the way you came in from the patio and I 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACTAmpJxJg
thought I saw a sad look on your face. Did Leo say something that might 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyFquvec3t
have offended you?" 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn98SiaDQrS
"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."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ3u61IaTH
"But Leo should have helped you back in. Why didn't he do that?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSkuYDKgUK
"I didn't tell him. We spent a lot of time talking and I didn't want to worry him with my pain."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjJZCebFlK
"Awww, you're so 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqGBl1t4pb
considerate, my dear. But right now, you'll need a lot more help you can663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMH6qOQLvq
get before you fully recover. Anyway, the doctor said you are doing 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1x7o5zBFb
well and that you will get better in no time. Maybe then, you will be 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKOcXVGYIO
able to walk around freely again without any difficulty or pain."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAjt7gojMY
"You have no idea how I miss walking. I can't wait to do things and get back to work."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLo59qGcNw
"Speaking about work, what do you do for a living, dear?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtCdbJw6qh
"Well, I work at an editing company. It isn't much but I enjoy what I do."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhDlxpPzBk
Amanda gave Angel the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjk78Q3kViD
kindest smile. "That's nice and decent. I figured you're one who loves 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKQdI3cmJN
to deal with writing. It suits you."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvHqYiBhEj
Angel smiled back. Amanda was really nice that Angel couldn't think of any nice words or gesture to give back.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP5hDCSAum
Amanda then snapped her fingers. "I just thought of something just now."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2Mgdk6WDr
"What is it?" Angel asked.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1B2sYTPas
"You seem to be one 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqrAC5stFt
person who really loves their job so much, but just as you said earlier,663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkMqsUdKbR
it's not paying you enough. And I think, you Angel, deserve the best."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshde8DDaQE
Angel couldn't tell where all of this was going, so she waited for Amanda to carry on.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMAVZqHWAT
"How about you start working for us? At the MacDonell Technology Construction Company?" Amanda asked.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqovIuAcwl
"What?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5g63raJAe
Angel's face became paler as she heard that voice.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp59TYq1FL
Leo who had just come in663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGmdx7VD4h
from the patio, heard the whole thing. He was standing in the foyer, 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XTkiTZ9zv
just at the entrance of the living room.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0Hm4zL2Bo
"What did you just say 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8gP44QnKA
now, grandma?" Leo asked as he stepped in the living room and approached663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80oigqABRq
the two women on the wheelchairs.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBaKZoGaft
Amanda turned her 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO23Fi2IVWo
wheelchair around and looked at Leo. "Don't start acting like your 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq7f1iTxQo
mother like she hasn't heard anything and wants someone to repeat 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7go8Y4jXz
themselves."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6V1aR8unCk
"I just can't believe what you're saying right now," said Leo. "Did you just ask Angel to join us at our company?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNojjKku9g
"Yes," said Amanda with a billion dollar smile on her face. "Won't that be nice?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCPXLgMNWY
Leo couldn't believe 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbclDVo5hpl
what he was hearing as he slowly met eyes with Angel. Even she couldn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwI8N5Yk2H
tell why Amanda had suggested this in the first place.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHhnY7mjfP
"Haven't you thought 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJS92qiuhB
this through, grandma?" Leo asked, feeling somewhat confused. "I mean, 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAN2S8UoKg
what makes you think Angel could come and work for us? Doesn't she have a663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvMCH5BHuh
job of her own?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku7dVMHy9B
"Leo's right," said Angel. "I already have a job and I don't see why I have to trade it for another."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KCrT0Ii8z
"You deserve better, my 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xBVcUbIam
dear," said Amanda as she looked at Angel. "I haven't said anything 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJQizhlO3s
wrong. I'm just giving you a chance to do something better."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pyQarq8Rv
"But grandma, you can't do that, you know," said Leo. "Angel should be willing to come and work at our company."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFp0tpRvBBc
"If you ask me, your father would agree to this too."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zPwwQRi5m
"What makes you so sure?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgfHHktb6p
"I know your father. And he will think exactly the same."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBWzQTJPLv
"Mum won't though."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeJb3KUbyQ
"Does she run the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5gchFZzT3
company?" Amanda raised an eyebrow at her grandson. "She might be 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIxlxp8IUW
married to your father and have a share in the company, but she doesn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxJRkGRc7o
make decisions. Your father and I do with other shareholders."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXiNzYWVfK
Leo knew his grandmother663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsZwVdCH5d
was right and there was no way to oppose her. But he still couldn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXIubE8h5l
believe that she wanted Angel to work at the company. His mother might 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYcUNqevFo
not make any major decisions concerning the company, but she sure as 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnImtkVVj1
hell wasn't going to agree with Angel working there.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeNNU9gyN0
"I think I am going to work now," said Leo who couldn't take all of this anymore.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3PuBFcyuC
"Don't say any of this 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNscWQP5OP8
to anyone yet," Amanda warned him. "I'll have to talk to your father 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHm13bp0XD
first and then smooth talk your mother, which is the most unpleasant 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RdxMVTrAC
thing I'll have to do in my life. And....," she looked at Angel. "I'll 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JY5B3CykG
have to convince her a little more than I have to."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIee89dTZ2b
Angel gulped. It felt 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wCpU8arVC
like Amanda was going to give her a lesson of her life when she was only663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdULIrKP2m
trying to convince her to join the McDonells.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnVaUjTZpI
Leo made his way out of 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym3DDAwR7e
the room without a second thought of staying to try and convince his 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkobu1zp7AV
grandmother to change her mind. He was about to head up the stairs so 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2ZbFOU1SZ
that he could go to his room and get his car keys and other things when 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9XYOkQGbK
his mother appeared, making her way down the stairs.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiLsQoIgEZ
"Oh, Leo," said Mrs McDonell as she reached the bottom of the stairs where her son stood. "You already had your breakfast?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQX87BdsIW
"I had breakfast with everyone else," Leo answered. "May you excuse me, I have to go for work."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSZaDpdVGp
"Wait, Leo, I need you to....."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8OeqJfznQ
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.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J2ih2MqbB
"Looks like he's still mad at you," said Amanda from the living room.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu11dgz6Nz
"I wonder when you're ever going to mind your own business," said Mrs McDonell as she made her way into the living room.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Uuh7NlzoL
"When I finally leave this place." Amanda gave her daughter-in-law a smile. "I know what you're up to."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ1m0P3xjD
Mrs McDonell folded her arms. "I don't know what you're talking about."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxb9SW0Wzfp
"I'm talking about Kim."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0cDk54ltv
Angel didn't know if it 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvmJQ69Q9y
was right to be in this room and listen to their conversation. The way 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6D1oWKXSM
she saw it, Amanda and Mrs McDonell seem to have some long time feud. It663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUlh9IDcyX
didn't seem serious, but it was dangerous for anyone else apart from 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxpIR5qzfr
the two to be involved in. They were family so it was quiet normal to 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEDFELO07q
argue. But there was something between the two women that Angel could 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwQM5dqhOt
feel but couldn't put together. Did these two really hate each other 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGzE6hplkt
just as much or was it they have a bit of a conflict when it came to 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttZj1669bO
certain things?663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx8UdKtxFd
"Kim is good for Leo. You should know better," said Mrs McDonell.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFVZGYhdar
"If she was that good, then why did Leo call off the wedding?" Amanda asked.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jS5KzhvAo
Angel felt like covering663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IeASbtb4Y
her ears. Kim was the girl Leo was supposed to marry and she couldn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1frnVkPAFL
help but feel awful about it. Only a few people knew why Leo ended 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iaD9gyyMs
things with her. It wasn't just about the accident that ruined the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSl9W17GLR
wedding day to begin with, but because of Leo's sudden love for Carly.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vxYBXY0Il
"There was an accident that day," said Mrs McDonell. Angel knew she would say that.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJbbd94tI4
"Ya, but a few days later, he confronted Kim and told her that he didn't want to marry her anymore," said Amanda.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdg4QdAPVZ
Angel felt her heart 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOxezhXPwM
skip a beat. She couldn't help but feel this was all her fault. Maybe if663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltxcwVegSQ
she knew what Carly was up to from the beginning and stopped her, this 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJpvbExIiQ
wouldn't have happened. Leo would have never laid his eyes on Carly and 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglEps4nrkk
would have gotten married and they would never have known each other to 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF4yDbX4cL
begin with. That's if Mr McDonell hadn't visited her mother on that day 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBvKCZ3fqM
and invited her to the wedding.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuGGonY5FU
"Don't start with me," said Mrs McDonell.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx8iAYoNOz
"But you know perfectly well that it is the truth," said Amanda.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck8ZfRyOJo
Angel looked at Amanda 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7DHLN1Xgj
and then at Mrs McDonell. She soon noticed Leo coming down the stairs. 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpzETRIc4Z
She cleared her throat as a warning to the two ladies arguing.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3GtrP5xkZ
Amanda and Mrs McDonell 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2Y9fFTd7p
noticed Angel clearing her throat and when they both looked at her, they663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzkhfbaver
saw her eyes looking into the foyer. They didn't utter a word when they663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrWxQWsVra
saw Leo.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXPmNbR4GQ
"What's going on?" Leo asked. "Why are you so quiet?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGplcrCl4JS
"Nothing, dear," said 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQR6JsDGwI
Amanda. "Just arguing over what to have for supper. You know your mother663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHRLqRYUkF
hates it when I try to take over the kitchen for a day."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMcqpofVJL
"Okay. I'll be going to work then."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxriArqFwCD
"Have a nice day."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX6KpYT9cA
"Have a nice day, Leo," said Mrs McDonell.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabzPu8Kdcz
Leo nodded his head in 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqRlY9atcm
acknowledgment. He looked at Angel and Angel looked back at him. They 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwnghosobU
stared at each other for a little while before Leo nodded his head at 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc9uDMQdGH
her and she did the same back to him. Then he walked out of the house 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmJ9w573U4
through the front door.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuL4NMDzoO
"Where were we?" Amanda asked looking up at Mrs McDonell.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbp33G0DkrC
"You're unbelievable," 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU18rVjk8m
said Mrs McDonell with her hands shaking in the air like she couldn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO2pFHjh9x
take it anymore. "I'm going to have my breakfast."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yonV8Zyb7
Mrs McDonell quickly left the living room. Angel looked on as she left. This family had some drama for sure.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz65JVMSrVy
"I'm sorry for that, 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WaXlqhwah
dear," said Amanda as she took Angel's hand into hers. "Don't mind her. 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQKWl7tVXc
She could be a bit cranky sometimes."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkATKdfM9nU
"You don't have to remind me," said Angel, remembering how Mrs McDonell reacted upon seeing her and Carly's luggage yesterday.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxmcYXRcyE
"I think I argued too much I need to take a little rest. I hope you don't mind."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfidvMquBt
"No, I don't. You need the rest. Come to think of it, I think I'll take a little nap too."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG8DB1gqBs
"Alright, let's go to our rooms then."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3FhC12jiK
Angel slowly followed 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWEeG21RfM
Amanda. While she rolled herself out of the room, she couldn't help but 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpqpp6RWI0
think about Kim. She could only imagine how devastated Kim was after her663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweBrt8fdPz
wedding was called off and then your fiancé ends things for good. She 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDEvDuW6Yb
must have felt awful.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUFkVYj0iK
Angel couldn't help but feel sorry for her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHOJa326Pt
***663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztOFXPKAt2
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9DCTiWIwf
couldn't stop smiling to himself as he looked up at the ceiling 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84BShkvLDD
wondering why he couldn't stop getting lost in his own head.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0XFq1blBw
He663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjUPGyw6EG
propped upright on his chair as he went back to looking at his 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JEWgnDoML
computer. He bit his lower lip as he leaned back further in his chair 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTwQqF8EOi
and went up to looking at the ceiling again.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnhcgijs1o
"Oh, Angel, what are you doing to me?" he asked himself with a smile on his face.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWbXCBiC9K
Since663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y7JgIQmDU
he left for work this morning, he couldn't stop thinking about Angel. 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfg52cXRCh
As much as he has been seeing her everyday even when she was in 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1wpHFrskD
hospital, he never thought of her as much as he has today. He wondered 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRPfohXUOV
why he couldn't stop thinking about her. Did he like her that much?663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rAbb1pzOK
Who663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkD0gf6rX9e
wouldn't? She's nice and very beautiful, almost like an angel. And her 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeIniEwd5w
black and red hair made her look strikingly more beautiful. And her soft663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bz5C32Rr4
brown eyes were intriguing to look at and get mesmerised.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHfugIRgoy
He663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7UqCTZroG
imagined looking into those eyes right now that he didn't hear his 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF7xeIIMIF
landline on the desk ringing at first. It was when it rang the second 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FzI9Q9UTi
time that he managed to get out of his daydream and answer the call.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqaiuZxHW1
"Yes?" he answered knowing that it was his secretary, Emily.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB50HtWNIRw
"You've someone here to see you."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVar8ptBETe
"Who is it?" Eric rolled his eyes in irritation. He really didn't like being disturbed when he was daydreaming.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GzKGve903
"It's Trina."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwK4GNBu2k
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMHuabLNn8
hadn't heard that name in a long time. Trina? What could she be doing 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8Gnmnosvs
here? They hadn't been in touch for a long time since the wedding got 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpYsfeeyJ8
called off.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwhqQhbDKr
"Tell her to come in," he said putting the hand phone back on the receiver.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAs41UYYK3
The door to his office flew open and and Trina stepped into the room.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNLZsxIdX8
"Hi, Eric," said Trina with a smile on her face.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHkmqq60Y0
"Trina, hi," said Eric as he got up from his chair and went round the table to her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeb3oLf4Hy
Trina663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJpzelfR3R
gave him a hug and Eric didn't feel that much comfortable as he used to663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcMjIizeBh
when Trina gave him hugs. The two were friends. They weren't so close, 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmRAim65mA
but they were friends anyway, because of Leo and Kim. The four of them 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K7guYy2kG
were almost like a gang during their school years though they used to 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5FSoGOGYp
fall out sometimes but still get back together.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUPU54kLi3
Now663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekYWB9FY1J
that they were all grown up, they weren't much as friends as they used 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iTDwdqAeN
to since Kim and Leo fell in love with each other and started dating in 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ602rttgUsx
high school and straight throughout college. It still didn't mean they 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH1Me7l8Eu
weren't friends.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7pdk0xxCK
While663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmaO90SYwv
Kim and Leo were in love, Eric was more of a play boy. He was handsome 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjah6jl0YU3
after all and everywhere he went, ladies fell for him. It wasn't that 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9ydg6MQoR
Leo is handsome. He really is. It's just that he was already taken and 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CEzLWAjjr
way too early for that matter, so he didn't get to have as many 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MLd9fOGTF
girlfriends as Eric did during his college years.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLpFbYxHNA
One663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUqOlQZd04
of Eric's flings happened to be Trina. Trina has always had her eye on 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyY2AA7CZL
him for as long she could ever remember. She hoped that Eric would be 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gFiG6R5IJ
serious with her and the two of them would get into a relationship. But 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAy7w0tOlTm
that was far from happening. Eric seemed too far to be committed into 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrM3ZbRcY9
one.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlNAcKZM45
Not until he met Angel.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh5OduKGGk
Trina663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xtQ4uVgAV
smiled back at Eric after hugging him. She felt so excited to see him 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrbJjVskB0
in what felt like forever when it's only been close to two weeks.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRo72KgMVc
"I haven't heard from you like forever," said Trina. "Are you ignoring me now?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BFEjlPjzx
"No, it's not like that," said Eric. "Please, take a seat."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eSxCZCPlg
Trina663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOMUCTOg3h
did as she was told. She wore a sky blue sleeveless dress, flared and 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiFvwZCeg3
reaching above her knees. She wore white high heels and she had a cream 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou7hBSaVRR
coloured handbag and lovely gold neck chain. She looked really 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6Lqbe8OhQ
beautiful.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qaond16Im
But to Eric, not as beautiful as Angel.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaVuncBRBz
"Then663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmMnOFJhgG
what is it, Eric?" Trina asked. "I thought we were friends. And after 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDZ54r17ln
what happened on the wedding day, we're supposed to be by each other's 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4Vrl6vq1e
side to try and work things out."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6atLPQnaNE
"Work things out with Leo?" Eric raised an eyebrow as he soon settled down on his chair. "You already know how stubborn he is."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgNPbqlTT8
"I know. I do feel so bad for Kim."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzCmwytLps
"Ya, me too."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCGobuR2ds
"She didn't deserve what Leo did to her."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhuQv3BMAC
Eric didn't say anything as he went back to looking at his computer.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPgyhorsrW
"Do you know something, Eric?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtcV88jzI4
Eric went back to looking at Trina. "Know what?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCvKhDs8BG
"Why Leo broke up with Kim? Do you know?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDdY1FUjzf
"No, I don't," Eric lied without hesitation. "After all that happened he just changed his mind."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH492qnjO8C
"But there has to be a reason. Is it because he fell in love with someone else?" Trina asked with an eyebrow raised.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnRfCC4Mzu
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKJ7Xhk29M
almost gulped but that would only show Trina that he was lying and that663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZUb9SuMK5
he was definitely hiding something. Instead, he playfully rolled his 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWXTnrAlwx
eyes with a corky smile on his face.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUyIHYcGB8
"Please,663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TeMI0Mpfe
Trina, if there was someone, I would know. Besides, he never told me 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uOfsR2zpF
why he changed his mind. So instead of interrogating me, why don't you 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6wrOS3BB9
ask him?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXanKSI0w3
Trina663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCUBBMudQS
almost dropped her mouth wide open in shock but she quickly said, "you 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJod6GiAWSa
know I can't do that. Leo is scary to talk to sometimes. I asked you 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSNygcFZHz
because you're almost like his best friend and he tells you everything."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqu7NXajg9
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kIEpV1Y12
smiled. "He is. But this time around, he really didn't tell me why he 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6ALz27ysp
did that. I guess he had a change of heart of some sorts."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE9hvkXsiZ
"Do you think it has something to do with that girl he hit his car with that day?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtb3Muw6Qi
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgNOfQQP6s
soon went pale as he didn't know how to answer the question. He went 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQLCKx5IPx
back to looking at his computer screen and tapped away on the mouse, 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLPm7ejX5W
clicking on the desktop, pretending to look busy as he thought of what 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrOYZ9ptjg
to say next.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnhvbpgdKF
"Uh, Eric," Trina called out to him. "Aren't you going to answer me? Does it have to do with that girl?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA9bvAb59Z
"You're asking me the wrong question, Trina," he answered, looking at her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuPsXxAJ4P
"What do you mean? You were there, weren't you, when the accident happened?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblMHFhkjgf
"Yes, but to be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with her."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8OBRgwQIk
"Are you sure? How is she by the way?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2N0KlWT86
"She's663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHxUugdpeO
okay." Eric didn't want to give Trina any more details about the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXYHUBWbXr
Barclay sisters. If anything, Trina only knew about Angel and not Carly.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbWqy4YeNA
He was afraid giving her more information might prove to be lethal in 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUMmRkK7C9
the end. She was Kim's best friend after all and he knew she was only 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy38KIAjQbS
here to get information from him because Leo wouldn't talk to her 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9l8vdQ8nC
anymore.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpXRe25wDc
"Is that why you have been completely ignoring me? Because of the accident?" Trina asked.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp1DTOqgnA
"Ignoring you?" Eric chuckled but blushed at the same time. "What do you mean?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgJzGx57dJ
Trina663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53l2Rrv83r
soon stood up from her seat and the smile on Eric's face soon died 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa7ZjvslGM
away. She came over to where he sat standing behind his chair. He 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GafnyAcGJ
suddenly felt her hands on his shoulders as she slowly started to 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJzDhg38Qh
massage him.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGA3HZwBfns
"You've been ignoring me, Eric," said Trina, slowly. "Was it because of the accident or did I do something wrong?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucB7orpJzd
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUq7gVtSIA
raised an eyebrow as he tried to figure out the right words to use. 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3PvDFajCs
What happened to Angel had kept him a little busy but that wasn't the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneBqFdthi5
full truth. He had grown fond of Angel from the very first day he saw 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnac2JDTZBM
her. When she was involved in the accident, he felt like it was his duty663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNqScezkDq
to be by her side and take care of her. That's why he was always there 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5s6Istbcil
everyday at the hospital to check up on her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf2x2rwKcF
He663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEvgHvE1Z5
didn't know he would care for someone who wasn't his family that much 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwnHiNsYw9
like he did for Angel. There was something about her that made him think663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCImr1UMTk
of her always. Nowadays even when he was to see any beautiful lady 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYG1ZJpfiF
walking across the street, he would end up thinking of Angel and how he 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR36HBJevHZ
just wanted to be by her side at that very moment.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne3ZuWCxmv
"Hey?" Trina brought Eric back from his thoughts. "What are you thinking about?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrGq8jDEyg
"Nothing," he answered. "I just realised I have a lot of things to do today."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJ3DWkzjte
"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."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSlIwpKYJa
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqe5pJPrRp
felt a sudden discomfort on his shoulders and he soon propped up on his663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BijlpVcZy
seat giving Trina a sign to stop what she was doing.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNuok9SVHJ
"What's wrong?" Trina sounded a little worried. "Don't you like my massage?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cSfpwCvOA
"It's not that, Trina," said Eric. "I just have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done today."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62QnJiGS32
"Oh,663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZDVB6yZte
I'm sorry." Trina soon walked away from Eric and went back to her chair663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrGEhiKjcE
to get her handbag. Eric couldn't help but blow out a puff of air 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpliHHtuVx
silently from his mouth, relieved that Trina was leaving.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEisUPMccc1
"Maybe we can try and catch up with each other sometime," said Trina as she turned to look at Eric.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpp0U3pEGi
"Ya, we should," he said hoping that it wouldn't be any time soon.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDarkfi8mm
Trina663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86oBrNQ22Q
smiled at him and just as she was about to walk over to him to give him663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yS7hrKnU1
who knows what, the door to Eric's office flew open.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTXfi9bwXt
Leo663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOSkczxjt6
stepped into the room and he paused when he saw Trina. Trina couldn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzrlwJu5IQ
help but feel her cheeks blush in embarrassment upon seeing Leo.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbYCx7hEMD
"There's a thing called knocking, you know," Eric said feeling rather glad that Leo was here.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb78RgpXL3w
"I didn't know you had company," said Leo as he turned to look at his cousin.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTJt8TVL1N
"Isn't Emily at her desk?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4U4YunUc0
Leo show his head. "She must have stepped out for tea."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8RqS6C1LO
Eric rolled his eyes. Typical Emily.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYXu5MERhN
"I was just leaving," said Trina.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC7547kL2T
"Okay," said Eric. "I would have loved to escort you out but I'm rather busy as you can see."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgubCh5GK8s
"It's fine," said Trina giving Eric a bright smile which soon faded away when she turned to look at Leo.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIT96ruvne
With663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dlg5RqanO
her bag in her hand, Trina quickly made her way for the door. Leo stood663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEAnb6H0av
aside for her to pass and she was out of the office in seconds.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHrtxyUK1q
"What was she doing here?" Leo asked as he closed the door after her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCHvdKmqf8
"What do you think?" Eric asked as he went back to sit on his chair.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoIwt5j8W2
"Acting as Kim's informant, I presume," Leo answered as he approached Eric's table.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVP8LLBRMyH
"Yep. But don't worry, I didn't tell her anything."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVSRoOo86B
"I know you wouldn't. You're too smart for that."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHQpsHqO0D
"She thought the reason why you broke things up with Kim was because of the accident."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIscQUqhrcT
"It's best they think that way. I don't have to explain anything to anyone."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZcsLJPCov
"Well, you would someday."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWzdxcY7oO
Leo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLscQAvYMoL
"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?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogTJgOVHi0
"That would be fine by me."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4U1WXXGrN
"Oh,663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNG7SZFplN
really? Then how are you going to explain yourself to Kim? Because at 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsvd3W8t0Q
that time, she would realise that the person you ran over is Angel who 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0uTNz9Ayt
happens to be the sister whom you fell in love with and the reason why 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYtypti6WK
you broke things off with her."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftdhhSSpAR
"Please, it's not like she's going to figure it out."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSRGZ0kl9E
"She will. Kim isn't that much of a blonde, you know."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3I2qmsSxH
"Okay, enough about Kim. It's already hard enough that Trina was even here. She annoys me sometimes."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRYCoq9bk1
"And she's afraid of you. Your presence in my office made her run out of here like she had met her worst nightmare."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAErTDnSZrU
"I am everybody's worst nightmare." Leo smirked.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtxMLnJBJV
"Not to Angel." Eric smirked back. "If anything, she seems like one who always puts you back in your place."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjffgqLFta
Leo663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNvMZTiQav
blushed as he remembered his conversation with her back home at the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPyBPrwtW1
patio and how she made fun of him because Amanda made him apologise to 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcczitb6Xw
her.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJLDgglagi
"Now what's with that face, dear cousin?" Eric asked in a mocking tone.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtsFWK9nmO
"What face?" Leo asked trying to be stoic.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDalyFhGfDA
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNSy0josBA
smiled as his index finger made a circle in the air as though 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs1PKJUp3T
highlighting Leo's face. "The look on your face tells me you were 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMF2X3alkZy
thinking about Angel just now."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnKHmULocJ
Leo shook his head. "No, I wasn't."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hq6Hh2GCX
"Yes, you were," said Eric with glee. "Did something happen between the two of you before you came here?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlxaAneVsJ
Leo663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAgPMfSWHg
was caught in between telling Eric the truth or keeping what happened 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1KSBCxxBj
all to himself. He couldn't tell him that he had apologised to Angel 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd2cTmsGoD
because his grandmother made him do so. It would hurt his ego.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptF0ya082H
"Hey? Aren't you going to tell me or not? It's the reason why you're here, right?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNYokdm8WY
"What makes you say that?" Leo asked see with his arms folded.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtU9G2jLVO
"Because,663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNnCiJ89iR
whenever you want to let something out of your chest, you want to let 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUN82tfCxR
it out or else you would burst. And besides, you just came in here 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBO15EI8O42
without even knocking first meaning it's really bothering you and you're663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHm53kGtNt
in a sense of emergency to release it."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo9m8DVbKZ
Leo looked at Eric as he settled on the chair Trina had occupied minutes ago. "You know me so well."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw34ux3eTCY
"Of663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAfl611urj
course, I do," said Eric as he raised his eyebrows. "I'm your best 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4bCM8mNGu
friend after all. Now, tell me what happened between you and my sweet 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiL2Jta2I9
darling, Angel."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzKIG2ymWf
"Angel isn't sweet. She's a pain in the neck and she's only out there to get me."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvD2YnqCLNV
"Continue." Eric couldn't help but grin.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJYy8nKESB
Leo ended up telling Eric all that had happened with Amanda, Angel and himself back home.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNDoK4K3wc
"And you think it was all Angel's fault?" Eric asked after Leo finished his story.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXfbOrAhU2
"Well, ya," Leo answered. "She even made fun of me about it after grandma left."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvFavNmyRC
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."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7Ag5QGkpk
"Grandma663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpKT0gPJVD
already likes her, that's why. And I'm afraid this might not be the 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvbH6hjViZ
only time she will ever get the upper hand in things."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPdeNoUD7W
"What do you mean? Is there something I should know about?"663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxnTBsz6Cv
Leo663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMYE6yYVnY
wanted to tell Eric about his grandmother's suggestion of bringing 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUBh6N0xJ6
Angel to work at the McDonell company. But he promised he wouldn't say a663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSKAOxgmbL
word to anyone.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uWF7P8VqH
"I'll leave that up to grandma to tell you," he said. "I simply can't say anything."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2OSgMHr1G
"Alright," said Eric. "It seems grandma has a surprise for us, right? Then I better hear it from her then."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSta7hSjhD
"Yep,663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jYNtMZAr1
it's a surprise indeed." Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Anyway, I663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ959J4n8Wqu
better get back to work." He stood up from the chair.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7SvBBEHOX
"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.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPLhBvYMKg
"Let me guess, the Lady Supreme."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnV2XurA21
"Just because grandma favours her, doesn't mean that she will always have the upper hand, Leo."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXDzNhWG1z
"You'll be surprised. It seems things are all going in her favour."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRtxLqWsxn
Eric663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVu8d5AGOaf
smirked as he closed his eyes. "You're just upset because for once in 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk4cOkqFVc
your life, you've met the one person whose up to your level in terms of 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3fIAk2jji
attitude that's it's difficult to bring them down."663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYyfbbBjCu
Leo663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZf7DkHGqG
looked at his cousin and he didn't know whether to give him a slap, 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLmVljV5xq
which he was wanting to do so badly, or just let him be. He slowly 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT9LlQ7aMT
turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf23fDY7jtl
He663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroB7UneZ7g
couldn't get what his cousin said out in his head and it stuck in his 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH6f3GHdtG
mind even as he reached the office and looked at the documents on his 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qC1QMU3O2
desk that he had to look at today.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARano7hbSw
Could it be that Leo and Angel were alike in terms of attitude and that somehow, Angel had the upper hand?663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIoZ6S1o4F
Leo663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR7ONAs2lA
shook his head as he finally settled down behind his desk. He wasn't 663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOwcVfE7QZ
going to dwell on the issue forever. He had a lot of work to do.663Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HTcgyLV97
And it would take a lot more time for him to finally realise that he might have finally met his match.
