"I hope I'm not late," Christian stepped out of the cab, slinging his bag over one shoulder, as the afternoon sun cast a warm glow across the pavement."I took only half a day's permission to visit the warehouse, if I were to be late, I'm sure I should expect a rant from that useless manager," he had barely taken five steps toward the company building just then a familiar voice greeted him with a sly edge."Little prince." Christian stopped and turned to find Ezra leaning casually against a lamppost near the side of the building, sliding on the pole to reach him."What are you doing here?" Christian asked while almost being out of breath because of rushing, and his eyes scanning for anyone who might see him talking to thin air. "Didn’t I ask you to keep an eye on Oliver? What exactly are you doing here without doing the task I've given to you?" Ezra shrugged his shoulders casually. "I did, and believe me, I’ve got my eyes glued, but the scene is a little… different inside now, at th

"Young master, Mr. Edward wants to meet you," the assistant whispered cautiously into Christian’s ear while he was busy glancing at the computer screen.Hearing the assistant's voice, Christian checked left and right to ensure no one overheard, slightly tilted his head, amused by the way he got called that too in the work place."Just call me Chris here," he whispered back with a light smirk, "I don't want anyone to know about my identity." The assistant nodded with a hum, and left from there, Christian took a breath in relief that none heard the words of the assistant.Tapping on Luna's table, Christian said, "I'm going to meet my uncle, don't let anyone approach my table, okay?" "Yes boss," Luna grinned.With a chuckle, Christian got up from his seat, and walked down the glass corridor to the executive wing. The moment he entered Edward’s private office, the heavy door clicked shut behind him, muting the world outside giving them the privacy they needed.Edward was standing near

"Everyone can leave," Edward announced, one by one started to leave, the first to leave the room was Oliver, and silently everyone followed to make the room empty."Can we have a short conversation, Mr. Chris?" Rosaline asked, raising an eyebrow, Christian opened his mouth to say no, wanting to escape from her, but someone else is quicker than him."Of course he has time," Edward intervened with a smug smile evident at the corner of his mouth.Christian turned to him with a look of betrayal, his thoughts screaming, "Uncle, you traitor! How can you do this to me?" Rosaline stood up and without waiting for a response, commanded, "Follow me." Christian sighed inwardly and walked behind her like a schoolboy called to the principal’s office. They walked in silence down a long corridor until she stopped in front of a small glass meeting room and pushed open the door.Click.She locked it behind them, and shades covered the glass leaving the room dark.Christian blinked in confusion. "Why

"Huh?" Christian frowned, blinking at Rosaline’s bold whisper, "What the hell are you talking about?" She just chuckled and leaned casually closer to him, "No... I just thought maybe I’m the third wheel between you and your boyfriend, that face of him is too pitiful." "Stop it." Christian gave her a half-glare. "I told you already I’m not into men, moreover he and I are not in any kind of relationship as you're thinking." Rosaline grinned wickedly. "Are you sure? Because the betrayal look on his face saying a different story, he looked like a lost puppy looking for its owner." "Roseeee…" Christian groaned, dragging her name out with an exaggerated sigh.She gasped, placing her hand on her chest dramatically. "This is the first time you’ve called my name like that… So adorable." "Don’t make it the last time," Christian said under his breath, instantly regretting how soft his voice came out, though he wanted to be angry with her.But Rosaline caught it, and her eyes glinting with m

"Luna…"The sudden voice from behind startled her.She had been so deep in her thoughts that the sudden sound of her name sliced through the silence like a blade. Luna turned around narrowing her eyes slightly, only to find Oliver standing a few steps away, offering a gentle smile."Luna, right?" He asked, rubbing the back of his neck but his eyes fixed on the folder on the table which was given by Christian earlier to her.She raised a brow being sarcastic. "If not Luna, what do you think it could be? Tuna?" Oliver blinked at her sarcasm, then let out a breath in confusion as he couldn't understand why she doesn't like him though they never had any fight to be rivals. "Why are you always wary of me?" "Is that a problem for you?" "I’m not here to argue," he said quickly, his tone turned out to be softer than usual. "I'm actually here to apologize… to Chris, I was emotional in the morning, I didn't mean for things to go that far, I always treated Chris as my younger brother, I trul
