"Father," Kane answered the call, already picturing the smile of satisfaction on his father's face. "To what do I owe the pleasure?"

"Kane, it's good to hear your voice. I trust you've settled in nicely," his father's hoarse voice sounded exactly as it had always been; confident and strong.

"I'm sure Gladys has already beat me to it and told you all about my settling in," he responded sarcastically, referring to the eternally loyal housekeeper. "Are we really going to pretend to have this conversation?"

Thompson King laughed out. "I'll tell you what, that woman is good at her job. I'm sure you know it too. But, it's not Gladys I want to talk about. I'll take it you've agreed to our deal, now that you've come back home."

Thompson was a man who had made a name for himself and was respected in the business industry. He was the driving force behind oil exports and imports. Things always went his way and he hardly had to beg. However, in that moment, he sounded every bit desperate —the des

    When Kane had walked out of the dining room, his intention had been to go back to the study and check again if there was anything amiss. However, that had been the first thing he had done as soon as the mystery woman had run out of the study. And with how good he was at paying attention to detail, he knew exactly what to look for. And to his surprise, everything was exactly where he had left it and nothing was missing. Provided he had done a very good search of the study in case she had left things like secret cams and anything that he needed to look out for and still not found anything suspicious, it was no use to go through the entire process again. Hence, he welcomed the distraction to see this maid that was clearly lacking in proper basic work ethic. His stroll to the garden was slow, unhurried. He took in everything around him with a slow appreciation for nature. However, the glint in his eyes died when he entered the garden and spotted the big rock that was sitting right in t

    Her thoughts stumbled upon each other as she waited for her captor to finally free her. She couldn't exactly relax when she had promised to explain herself to him and he had actually listened to her flimsy words said out of desperation. Now, she just had to come up with an excellent excuse or explanation for her actions. And that alone seemed to be an impossible task even to herself because any sane person would find her actions suspicious.Keisha wasn't ready for the suddenness of the action, but the next thing she knew she had been roughly flung onto the leather chair. The chair protested under her weight and it rolled into the desk. Keisha made to get up when he spoke then. "I would be careful of my next step if I were you," he said, the warning clear in the grave tone of his voice. She sat back into the chair and although it felt very comfortable, she couldn't afford to indulge in it's plushness and rather sat stiffly in the air. He walked backwards and her eyes widened anxiousl

    "You know, you seem to have this talent for disappearing without a trace. Where have you been?" Grace asked a distracted Keisha and caused her to jump."Geez you scared me, Grace," Keisha answered with a small frown distorting her face. She removed the hand that had instinctively found its way over her heart and glared at Grace. "It seems to me your talent is to scare people. Don't you have better things to do with your time than lurk ? Mrs Patterson to make proud?"Grace chuckled at Keisha, while she closed the door to the garden. "Whatever could you have been up to in there? Nobody ever goes inside the garden now."Keisha turned around, disbelief painted over her face. "You can't possibly be serious. It's so beautiful in there, I would just love to get lost in the beauty of it all. By the time I'm found, I'll probably make up some excuse about how big and confusing the place still is to me. What with me being new and whatnot."Grace rolled her eyes at the wink Keisha threw at her. "

    When Mr King arrived, Keisha had missed the memo as usual, too busy trying to figure out how best to gain entrance to the person in question’s study as well as bedroom. Luckily, according to Grace, he had been too tired to really notice any of his staff, new or old and had retired early. Grace had been in a hurry and obviously nervous, by the looks of it, and had not given her enough time to ask her any further details. That was last night, when she had woken up early.Today, that was not the case. Keisha woke up with a start, having dreamt of Rodrigo cackling like a hyena and a grumpy old Mr King, confronting her about being a thief. She had been running endlessly, when she had finally woken up.With her heart beating fast underneath her chest, she muttered something about dirty old men. With a gasp, she grabbed her phone off the table and blinked. It was four hours past the time she was supposed to have woken up. With lightning speed, she ran into the bathroom took a shower. She ma

    Grace closed the door to her room and turned around to face Keisha with her hands folded over her chest. She opened her mouth to speak, really looked at Keisha and groaned instead. "Gah, it's hard to be serious with those eye bags under your eyes. You could carry all my belongings in there."Keisha twisted her mouth and touched her eyes. "Don't do me dirty like that. I know it's bad.""Oh, you do know how bad it is? And here I was thinking you probably didn't even know you looked like a zombie. Explain," Grace commanded in a hard tone. "Explain what?" Keisha blinked, poking the eye bags like they were her new object of interest. "What has been taking your time away from your sleep, hmm? Just what have you been doing at night, that you haven't been sleeping at all?" She asked exasperatedly, throwing her hands in the air.Keisha stopped her fingers from prodding her eyes and leaned back to sit with both hands planted behind her on the bed. "No need to get yourself worked up. I'm no n
