LYRA POV."It would be an honour for us to help you, Sir." Loren said, getting up from the chair. Just then John arrived holding a tray which had four coffee cups. He was late. John looked at Loren and Stepheno. He greeted them. He even asked for forgiveness for being late and explained why he was late. Seeing Loren get up, Ronald got up too. They both did a friendly handshake. It was finally a good ending in the end. Loren agreed to help Ronald in the Empire case. Whatever it was I was happy they were on good terms now. We were out of Ronald's office and suddenly my gloomy mood was gone. I was happy to talk to Ronald and I was the only one in the entire company who was allowed to address him in his real name.I giggled thinking. So this is how it felt to stand out from the crowd. I told Stepheno that I left my Purse in my desk and Loren insisted on following me. Somehow they figured out the floor where my branch was because I had no idea where it was. In addition to that Stephe

LYRA POV."Do you think you would ever run away from me?" He said coming behind me but in a distance. "I will always find you" He said and I smiled at his words. I turned to him and saw a smug smile plastered on his face. I showed him my tongue. I ran in the living room and he ran behind me. I ran to a room and decided to lock it but couldn't do it and Loren took advantage of it and came inside."Hey!" I protested to him. He didn't listen to me and threw me in the bed. I should be glad it was a soft bed because I bounced back on it twice."Do you want to Play a game?" He asked towering above me. This closeness was making my stomach tickle."Yes" I answered him. He smiled and got up from me. He pulled me up with his hands. I sat straight up."What's the game?" I asked him. He didn't say anything and told me to follow him.Loren brought me to the living area. He went inside the room and brought a few things. He hung a board like thing on the wall. I waited for him to finish. "You loo

THIRD PERSON POV.Lorenzo gets up from the bed and walks up to the bar area. A from behind the living room. He knew he needed to check the details before Lyra came out because Lyra was good at predicting the situation. Lorenzo comes and settles down on the bar stool. He opens his laptop and search for the particular mail he has been searching for. His lips curls at the end and his nose flared looking deep. He had been waiting for this mail for like days and finally it was in front of his eyes. His patience was over. Just then he sees Lyra coming out of the room. He looked at her, her hair put down reaching up her hip. Her hair was wet because she had just showered and the drops of the water were wetting the floor. She looks in his direction and smiles at him and he returns the smile but bigger than her's. He knew there were a few hours left and he had other things to handle now. Lyra didn't hesitate and came to where Lorenzo was. Before she could see the screen Lorenzo changed th

THIRD PERSON POV.Lorenzo fist tightened in anger and his veins started to pop out. The atmosphere suddenly changed and Lorenzo looked more dangerous than ever.The men in the room didn't dare to breathe now. They didn't want to make the slightest mistake by breathing. They had always seen their Boss' monstrous sight and knew to what extent he would treat his enemies. This particular case was different. They knew it was because of the girl his Boss had kidnapped and had kept as hostage. They didn't have any idea why their Boss was doing this for a girl who was already a hostage in their house. They were clueless but nobody had the guts to question him. Stepheno was fuming after hearing his words. He took a step forward to hit the man hanging but Lorenzo opened his fist and signalled Stepheno to stop.It was hard for Stepheno to stop but he needed to respect Lorenzo. Lorenzo was the Boss here and he did not want to defy him.Nobody but he knew how much Lorenzo had struggled to come

LYRA POV. "We respect you Mr. Walton but arranging a meeting without our consent is not what I expected from you." Loren said. He looked calm but the coldness in his voice didn't go unnoticed by me. The tension was forming on his forehead. I don't know why Loren was so sensitive about meeting Todd but I chose to remain quiet. "When you don't understand a thing try to stay quiet." I clearly remember his words and it's better to observe the situation before coming to a conclusion. "It's just a brief talk Mr. Rothschild and he is your Fa.." Ronald told him but before he could finish Loren cut him off. "Mr. Walton, we are helping you. Talking to Todd is your part of work, not ours." Loren said and got up from the chair. Unconsciously I got up too and was ready to get out but before that Loren put both his hands on the table and leaned a bit in Ronald's direction. He said something to Ronald and quickly regained his position. I couldn't really hear them. Ronald didn't say anything
