Another new day and Elysia had hit the road early.

“What did you say the name of the firm was again?” Elysia asked, stepping gently on the brakes as she spoke to Damon over the phone as she navigated her way. “Silver what?”

“Silverquill,” he answered.

Then silence followed. Although it was short-lived.

“Oh, thank you,” she said while staring at the building, all she needed was a confirmation anyway.

“It's alright,” he sighed. “You should let me know when you settle in, it would be easy anyway, since I called the CEO already, after I knew you would be traveling here.”

Elysia smiled, nodding gently. “I don't think there will be an end to the thank you I keep saying, but nevertheless, thanks once more.”

Without waiting to hear his response, she hung up.

It was paramount to be early, irrespective of the fact that Damon knew someone there.

She finally got out of the car and stared at the huge building of the writing firm; it was only a matter of time before she joined them.

    “Yeah, it has been excellent so far,” Jake nodded even when he could not be seen by Damon who was on the other end of the phone.Damon sighed, holding the doorknob that led to the seminar room. “Are you sure?”Another nod from Jake.“Yeah, I'm sure about that,” he answered, sitting back in his swivel chair. “Or are you gonna question me about something to fully confirm.”“What was she doing yesterday?” He demanded, raising his wrist into his line of sight. “At umm… exactly eight o'clock in the night.”Jake scoffed, taking his gaze to the ceiling for a moment. “That's too easy man, I thought it would be something harder than that.”“You were on a call with them yesterday,” Jake muttered under his breath, handing a plain paper to one of the nurses who approached him.“Go to ward 119,” he whispered, taking the phone away from his ear for a moment. “I need details on the patient's health.”“Okay sir,” the nurse replied, bowing slightly to Jake who walked away.Damon was inside the room al

    “So thank you all for coming here today,” Orion cleared his throat, giving Nessa some files in which she passed around to the board members. “I know I informed you guys on short notice, so yeah, I'll be real quick.”“Anddd…” Nessa dragged the words as she passed the last piece of paper to a man who accepted it with a smile. “That's all.”“Done?” He asked, turning to Nessa who nodded briefly.“Yes sir.”“What?!” In an instant, the man who was smiling after he was given the circular exclaimed, revealing the shock on his face. “ What the fuck do you mean by we are changing construction company?”Other than Orion and Nessa who knew about it already, every other person in the room turned their attention to the papers that had been staring at them.“Please, I won't permit the usage of foul words here,” Orion called out, eyes locked on that of Mr. Benjamin.He was the only one who said it anyway.“Well fuck me in the eye,” he cursed once more, slamming the paper on the table. “You think I'm

    The ember at the tip of the cigarette dimmed before Emily threw it to the ground, crushing it under her foot, irrespective of how hot it was. Without a word, she slipped her hand back into the pocket of her black hoodie.“What's up?” She asked in a low tone, turning to Alicia who was holding a bottle in her hand- one that contained alcohol.“I'm good,” she responded, trying to evade the actual question, but Emily knew her enough to notice that.She smirked, dropping the bottle on the table after she was done using it to wash her throat. “That's not the answer,” she turned her chair towards the direction of Alicia's and with a frown, she clarified. “I mean, what's wrong?” “You've been down ever since we got back from work, did something happen back there in the meeting room?” She added, drumming her fingers on her lap as she waited for the latter's response. Alicia pressed her lips, resting her neck at the top of the chair; that was one of the purposes anyway. “Nah, nothing happene

    For a moment, there was no word between the three of them, just eye contact.Elysia looked back and forth, and even when they said nothing, she understood the silence.She was smart enough to know what was going on anyway; she called Alicia's name but the latter gave no response, just stood there, eyes fixed intently on her.But after what proved to be an eternity, she took it off Elysia and transferred it to Calvin who looked at her all along.Alicia finally tightened her fist, heaving a sigh. “Uhm… I came to tell you that leaders of all departments are expected to be in the meeting room,” she diverted her gaze to her wristwatch, taking it back to Calvin. “Five minutes from now.”“You know the consequence of coming late, even though it's a minute, so I don't think I need to tell you,” she added, waving her hand and the clicking sound of her heels faded slowly as she walked away from their line of sight.Without waiting, Elysia made a sharp turn to Calvin who was about to take his

    “This is where you want to talk?” Elysia asked, pausing mid-step as the breeze brushed against her shoulder, making her rub it for warmth.The wind made her squint every now and then, but Calvin seemed less troubled. He simply leaned back against the wall, hands buried in his pockets, watching her in silence.“So Alicia told me about what you said,” he started, tapping his foot on the floor. “What was it again?” “Uhm, you were feeling guilty for my lateness the other day, or something, am I correct?”A nod was all he needed and she did that already. “Yes it's true.” “I was about to come to you to apologize at the restaurant but someone called your attention before I did,” she added, her words catching slightly as if the guilt was still lingering in her, somewhere.“Oh, about that,” he ran his hand through his hair. “I was also busy that day so I could not see anyone.” Elysia took a step back, shifting her weight from one foot to the other. “Do you remember who wanted to see you

    “The name’s Damon Garrison,” he corrected the receptionist of the hotel as he gave her his card.She nodded. “I'm sorry sir,” in a tone that could be compared to a whisper, she muttered.“Uhm... how many months sir?” She demanded, heaving a sigh.“Four months, VIP room,” he answered, pushing his luggage closer to him. “Meals included, so tell me, what will be the total cost?”The woman pulled out a calculator, pressing some numbers out and when she was done, she pushed it aside, raising her head to meet his gaze.“If it's in dollars it's thirty thousand sir,” she answered, sliding his card closer to herself. “Should I make the transaction?”Damon nodded, motioning his hand towards her. “Yes please, go on.”“Here for the training at Bumrungrad International hospital?” The woman inquired in a respectful tone.Damon shifted his weight, staring at the woman for some seconds, till she gave him the card with a smile.“Done sir, you've successfully booked a VIP room, it's room 294.” She smil
