Obediently walking to him, she asked, "Uhmm, why did you call me here..." As Conall turned around, Irene felt weird for some reason. 'What would I do if he is going to make trouble for me again? Wait, they say he is a devil, he is a heartless cold man. Now in this place, only we two are here. If... If he murders me, nobody will even know. I didn't even tell Luxury that I came here. What if...'Understanding his movements was a parallel world for her. When weird thoughts circulated in her head, Irene pronounced nervously, "I didn't bring your breakfast while coming here... Uhmm, if you want me to...""I didn't ask you to be here for breakfast." His sincere tone calmed her nerves. "Then why?"Unexpectedly, Conall grabbed something from a bag and he just tossed it towards her. His emotionless eyes were depicting that he was at least not going to hurt her."Mr. Hud... I mean President. What is this?" She stared at the packet in confusion."Put that on. It's yours.""Par-don?" In sheer
'Mr. Angel?'That sweet voice... Conall neve forgotten it. Nor did he forgot her face. The moment he heard her voice and the way she called, he was sure that it was none other than the little girl he met the other day.And for some reasons, Conall felt happy, "Ella?""Yes, it's me. Mr. Angel." Ellaine uttered beamingly.That day when she asked for his number, oddly enough he couldn't just say no. No matter how cold he acts with the world, he couldn't just show her that iciness. So at the end, he ended up giving her his number which only a few people in the world acquired. Though he never imagined that she would even call him one day."Why did you call me?" Seated on one of the wooden chairs in the not so crowded cafe, Ellaine looked at Roma. In her crimes, Roma decided to help. So when she said that she wanted to meet someone, Roma took her to the cafe."I came now in a cafe to play, can you meet me here now? It's called the 'Serenity Cafe'""Right now?" Strolling a little away from
Ring!"Give me a second." As Conall went on picking up the call, Ellaine was disappointed. She almost told him her mother's name but she was interrupted.When he was talking on the call, she noticed that the customers who were there awhile ago were now gone. Turning around Ellaine saw Roma still seated on the chair and enjoying the coffee.'This cafe feels so silent. Where are those people gone to?' Curious, she stared at the men in black who were present there. They had mostly same hairstyle with same dresscode. As if they were from the same team or probably filming some movie scene, she was amazed at the sight."For now, that will be all." Ending the call, as Conall turned to her he saw her staring at him with curiosity. Those eyes having intense desire to know something. "Ella, we have to end our conversation here today."The corner of her lips lowered and she fiddled with the dress she had on, "Are you already leaving?""Yes, I have an urgent meeting that I need to attend so I hav
With an unbreakable pull Maria pushed her to sit on the couch in the less crowded floor. She gazed at her carefully then pulled her in a tight hug."Oh my god, you have become so skinny in some days. Look at you, do you even have lunch properly?"Irene somehow managed to get away from her grip. Every time something bad happened, Maria would start acting like a caring mother. Irene suspected that there was more in the story unlike Maria telling her that she just wanted to drink and chill."Nah, my mother doesn't make me one.""I'm so sorry, I forgot to make lunch. Oh, right. I can't make it since we are meeting after a decade.""Yeah yeah, we talk in video calls everyday. Meeting after a decade, my @ss!" Irene commented grabbing a can from the table. Noticing Maria's gloomy face, Irene got worried."So what exactly happened?" Interrupting Maria while she was drinking like a sad woman in love, Irene asked her.Remaining silent Maria kept going on with the drinks, the loud music made it
ESPLAZA, a renowned five-star hotel. It ranked top among all those luxurious hotels in the city. Apart from the normal services they provided, there were even rooms available for pairs who came to spend time but they had no proper relationship."President, none of what is said in the report card is true. I didn't do anything evil behind your back, they are just conspiring against me. Please trust me." A 35 years old man knelt as he begged for a chance. The others looked at each other, gulping with the thought that maybe their turn was about to come."Mr. Kennedy, what are you talking about? Are we conspiring against you? It was you who held this secret meeting, we were told to come. You didn't even invite the CEO but only some members that you see fit. That's why I've told the CEO to be here so he could see what a backstabber you are." One of the members present there commented."You... You are lying, you all are in one team. President, please trust me. I don't know anything about thi
Too stunned to speak, Conall froze at the spot. Everything went dark and silent except for the palpitations of his heart that was clear and loud. He couldn't move at all as his whole body stiffened, it was the first time ever when he met a woman who was so proactive and bold. Taking advantage of him, she didn't even seem regretful."Wow, what a scene!" Upon seeing them in that position, one of the guys stopped the rests from walking towards them. "Someone is making out here. Geez, they should get a room at least!""Yeah, but good for them. Look at we singles, we don't have anyone to f*ck. What a bad luck!" "I don't think the girl went this way. Let's look for her somewhere else. Let's go." Waiting until she could no longer hear their voices, Irene finally took in a deep breath. Unaware of where her hands were, she leaned a little and moving a bit backwards, she relaxed her body against his big frame.He was so much taller than her that she looked like a puppy in front of a husky. Al
• The Next Day •Tying her hair in a bun, Irene casually settled on the bed. The dark patches under her eyes were clearly visible and she felt somewhat annoyed even though it was only morning. After coming back last night, she tried to fall asleep but his words kept coming back to her mind again and again, and as a result she rolled on the bed most of the night until at 3 am she could finally fall asleep. Heaving a sigh she stretched out her arms and smiled brightly, "Forget about the bad time. Let's see how I can start my day today."As she was about to head to the door, the notification sound in her phone suddenly made a noise. At first she kept ignoring it until it started ringing. Groaning, she picked up the call.As soon as she picked it up, Maria's overly fretful voice spoke from the other end of the call, "Iri, check the messages I've sent you. Oh my God, I still can't believe that it happened. How can it be? Who is she exactly?""Wait, wait hang on! What happened? Who's wha
MacMillan was losing his breath as the hot temperature was too much for him to take. As per Zoe's summoning, he came here an hour ago. Unlike he thought she kept him stand there like a statue without any water.Seeing Zoe appeared there, he finally let out a sigh of relief. "You are probably aware of the reason I've called you here.""Yes, I am. Old lady Zoe." MacMillan answered, showing respect."Then you may tell me who the woman was from last night." Zoe could have scared anyone with that serious tone of hers. But since MacMillan knew how she was in real, he didn't take it to heart. Far more, he had no choice.With his mouth shut and showing no interest in slipping up, MacMillan stood there with a straight face when his hands were crossed behind."Answer me."[You are all ordered to keep your mouth shut about what you saw earlier. No matter who asks, you can't say a word especially if it's my grandmother. Get that?] Remembering what Conall has ordered them, MacMillan bowed his head
