Janine Carroll Novels & Stories

She considers that he will be able to hack in to it anyway if he is half as good as people say he is. It only takes her a few minutes to collate all the information she needs about the man she had killed earlier in the morning. She turns round again to check on the computer geek before typing in new info. She has a sudden urge to do a check on Karen Anderson, something she has never thought of doing before. An information box pops up on the screen telling her that access to Karen Anderson’s file is denied to anyone without a Sigma clearance level. This surprises her. Only Directors have Sigma clearance.

"Hurry up and arrange the meeting! With my mood today, I might hit the jackpot!” Carol turned to make arrangements, but I asked her, "Hey! You haven’t told me the gender of the representative!” "It's a woman." Carol grinned. "Her name is Eleanor Wallist." "Oh... Who?" I got into character. "You said her name was what?" "Eleanor Wallist," Carol repeated. I slammed the table and burst into laughter. "It’ll be a piece of cake! I realized my ideas are working today. It seems this year’s going perfectly. My luck is unbelievable."

“Are you alright, Carol? What’s wrong?” “That woman was back,” Carol said, her voice shaking. “I caught her going through your office.” “What woman?” Zane asked even as he had a sinking suspicion about who it was. “The woman with the big, blonde hair and the...” Carol paused, uncomfortable about describing anyone in a derogatory way even after what happened. “Well, the one who wouldn’t make an appointment I told you about a few weeks ago.” “Shawna,” Zane growled. Fucking Shawna.

Cole noticed his sister’s smile fading at the mention of Andrew Pierce’s name so he quickly changed the subject, “Jenna Smith’s computer doesn’t have anything else worth looking at…. Hmm, what’s this, a book manuscript?” “I believe so. Jenna is a published author, she has a few books under her name,” Caroline explained.

Also another proof that Andrew was wrong about Carla. “Friends…” Called Carla at the smiling people. “Meet my cousin, Doctor Lila Phillips.” “A doctor…” The curly-haired woman smiled at Lila. She was standing not far from the door, striding toward the door then stretching her hand. “No wonder Carla is so good in helping our script writer as well as perfecting our performance. Turns out, her brilliant gene is in the family.” Taking her hand, Lila’s look was between grimacing and smiling. Feeling awkward because of Carla’s exaggerated introduction of her. For a few minutes they exchanged polite pleasantries with the people in the room.

Ananas was currently using the bag she was carrying. "I delivered it, but who is that woman named Carol?" "You mean Carol White? She's the owner of that boutique. What's wrong with Carol?" "No, I'm not. I just wanted to ask about Uncle Douglas. Did you guys tell him about me rejecting omega pheromones?" Tristan shifted his conversation to Ananas. For a few seconds, Ananas and Gabriel looked at each other even as they looked like they were both trying to find an answer to the question asked by Tristan.

Carter's office was. Carter was already preparing for the arrival of Merry Smith. Sam Jardin had given him the news. Jace could hear Merry's footsteps from the sound of stilettos tapping on the parquet that covered the floor. "Mrs. Merry Smith, good morning. Is there anything I can help you with?" one of J. Carter's assistants asked, greeting and stood in the way. She was a junior assistant under Paul's supervision, named Nana. "Get out of the way! I need to speak to J. Carter right now on urgent business," said Merry Smith arrogantly and impatiently.

She asks sweetly and I happily nod my head while Lucas just stares at her. “So to start with the most obvious one. No, I am not his sister, we just work together.” She answers and my eyes widen. “Oh god. Don’t tell me you work in IT.” I say as I remember Carter telling me his ex-used to work with him. “Oh, so you did tell her about Angela.” She teases Lucas and he just rolls his eyes, “No, I am not Angela, his ex and to put you at ease. I am happily married with a kid. Lucas and I are just coworkers. Well, I am his boss actually.”

Realizing she forgot to ask who they were, she added, "What did you say your names were again? If I am to coordinate with you, I should probably have your call cards." "The name's Mary Rafael. I travel through space and time," Mary reached out her hand for Claudine to shake. Claudine shook it firmly. From behind Mary, Kara waved again, "Kara Rey. The other reincarnator." "And I'm Will Simon. Just your regular handsome jock." Mary threw him a sharp look, and Will stopped grinning. "We'll go check on you tomorrow again," Mary said, "Watch out for any suspicious-looking individuals. We've identified one of the Cleaners that are after you, actually."

I simply don’t know how to protect the alliance, without taking my fiancée as my Luna. As I am about to take her hand, I feel Anya’s hand on my shoulder. “Still breaking it to the little Lily pad that you are rejecting her, Jar?” she asks. “Anya, it’s not that easy,” I start to say. “Oh Jar, it’s super simple. You reject her, she accepts, end of story,” Anya says.
