THEME: Signing a deal
THE MARTIN EMPIRE : Mrs Elaina Martins Office
Mrs Elaina Martins couldn't take her eyes off the document on her desk. She leaned forward to look at the resume on it. No doubt Knox won't object to this idea.
"I am pretty sure he will convince her to work for him or even be a model at his agency." Mrs Elaina thought deeply.
The chairlady was stunned out of thought when she heard a sharp knock on the door. "Come in," Mrs Elaina said and her secretary walked in.
"I am sorry to interrupt you ma'am but a young woman is here to see you." Tracy said.
"What's her name?" Mrs Elaina asked.

He handed the glass over to her."Thank you, Oliver." She sipped from the drink."Did it go well? I mean...the job." Oliver asked again.Eretia didn't know how to tell Oliver about the offer she got from the chairlady."Is something wrong?" Oliver noticed the perturbed look on her face."No..why?" She asked."You look disturbed
EPISODE SIXTEENTHEME: Letting her goOLIVER SCOTT HOMEEretia rolled on her bed when she heard a soft knock on the door. She looked at the time on the alarm, the red light beeped 6:30am. Then she hopped out of bed and wore her soft slippers."Good Morning, Ereria." Oliver greeted when she opened the door."Good morning." Eretia replied."Can we talk?" He asked.Eretia nodded. "Come in." She stepped aside for Oliver walkin. "Oliver, I have decided that I would call Mrs Elaina and turn down the job." She said before he could say anything.Oliver tucked his hands into pocket as he studied her expression."Look, I am not going to do anything you do not support." She added."What about you?"

And when it was time for her to leave, Mrs Elaina ordered her driver to take Eretia to Knox's house."Well...maybe he doesn't want me to come in."

Eretia smiled but it soon faded when he snapped at her."She is not my mother!"A deep frown crossed his face."And why are you denying your mother?" Eretia met his gaze but Knox was quick to look away."How much did she offered to get you to agree to work for her?" Knox asked."That's between your mother and I." Eretia answered."Tell me..I am willing to pay more right now." Knox offered."Why?" Eretia scrunched up her face."I don't need anyone around here." Knox replied l
EPISODE NINETEENTHEME: Drowning in the snowKNOX MARTINS BEACH HOUSETWO HOURS LATERThe cold air made Eretia gasp and she pulled her jacket more tightly around her. Eretia stepped into the snow to see if the lights inside the apartment were on. The snow immediately penetrated the boot she had changed into and cold air tickled her exposed skin and the howling of the wind scared her a bit. She started forward, the cold made her barehand and knee ache so she pushed her hands into her pocket immediately. The cold was freezing her system."Mr Knox Martins!" She called but her voice was lost in the wind."Mr Knox!" Eretia yelled again and it was lost again.

EPISODE TWENTYTHEME: HypothermiaKNOX MARTINS BEACH HOUSEEretia woke up with a start to darkness. She blinked, a panic of not knowing where she was or what had happened choking her for a minute. Then she remembered everything. She closed her eyes for a moment and lay very still as she remembered the whole drama with her new boss. Eretia was in bed, she knew that and she was feeling so warm.Eretia opened her eyes slowly trying to focus. She slowly turned her head toward the light source in the room. She looked beyond and her breath caught. Knox was there. He was sitting on a couch about two feet away from the bed and his eyes were on her."You.." Her voice trailed off too soon."You are awake."

He was tempted to check on Eretia in her bedroom but he walked on. When he stopped at the entrance of the kitchen, Eretia was there working her way around the kitchen as she hummed a song he couldn't make sense of.Knox cleared his throat and she turned to face him.“Oh! Good morning boss!" She greeted cheerfully.Knox made his way into the kitchen. "Good morning my maid."Eretia raised her eyebrows by what he just called her. "My name is Eretia."
