“I completely agree with Debra Zachs too, all this banter ain't going to help us win this battle, not to talk of the war with Lord Lex, his Black Triangle Syndicate and White Lotus group.”

“We need to focus, that's all we have got at the moment.” Sara Gerald immediately added as she stared at Detective Steve who didn't speak again but just held his hand on his tiny waist.

Mrs. Juliet Marcus, the seasoned operative with scars from a dozen missions, stood up slowly, just like General Carl Gerald she had been silent for sometime now, since all this was going on.

She slowly but precisely walked over to the place where Lieutenant Alex was standing and placed a hand on Lieutenant Alex's shoulder, giving it a firm squeeze.

“Detective Steve, I actually believe from the very moment that you began the argument that Lieutenant Alex right here isn't responsible for any confidential breach of any kind…”

“Look at him, this man had done nothing but give his whole being for this mission, Detective S

    Sara Gerald and Zaia Scott's whispers continued, building tension as Mr. Ramos Parker droned on about company history. “My father started with nothing, borrowed money from friends, and worked nights.”“Now, we're worth billions. That's the American dream, folks.”“My father Lord Patrick Parker always reminds me that you can always succeed in whatever it is that you do, that is if you don't ever give up.” Mr Ramos Parker continued bragging about his father, the Parker's family and himself, all this was just way off swaying ladies to him.From behind Sara Gerald and her new friend Zaia Scott, a soft voice joined in. “Even his father is a pervert too. We've heard rumors about Lord Patrick Parker's wife leaving him because of his promiscuous nature.” The voice was cold as if hurt by something…even worst something.Sara Gerald and Zaia Scott immediately turned slightly to see a girl with short hair and glasses, looking equally annoyed. “Hi, I'm Jasmine,” she whispered. “Couldn't help ov

    Sara Gerald stood slowly, her heart pounding a little as she stared at Mr Ramos Parker who has now obviously proved that he is no ordinary pervert but a renowned one…a top G in the game.Sara Gerald could now feel everyone's eyes on her, but especially his, that is the Pervert Mr Ramos Parker.Sara Gerald immediately took a deep breath, remembering why she was here—to build something real, to escape the shadows of her past.Her voice started soft but grew stronger as she spoke, pouring out her emotions.“Hi, everyone. My name is Sara Gerald. I'm from Northcliff, born and raised here, but my life hasn't been easy.”“I…I lost my mom when I was young, in a way that shattered everything I knew.” She stammered before continuing.“It was violent, senseless, tied to some dark forces in this city that I won't go into details about right now.”“But that loss... It changed me. It made me question everything—safety, trust, what it means to really live.”“For years, I felt like I was just survivi

    Zaia Scott took a deep breath, her voice trembling. “It was at a tech conference last year. I was presenting my project, feeling on top of the world.”“Mr Ramos Parker approached me afterward, all smiles, saying he loved my ideas.”“At first, I thought it was professional—networking, you know?”“But then he started getting too close, touching my arm, making comments about my looks instead of my work. ‘You’re as smart as you are beautiful,’ he said, but it felt slimy.”“Any man who does that is a good for nothing pervert!”She paused, eyes welling up. “I tried to brush it off, but he invited me to a ‘private dinner’ to discuss funding.”“When I said no, he got pushy—grabbed my wrist, whispered that I’d regret turning him down, his voice was just like that of a deranged monster.”“I yanked away and left, but it shook me. Reported it anonymously, but nothing happened.”“Turns out, his family, the Parkers, are loaded, connected everywhere. I felt so violated, so small.”“Like my talent d

    Sara Gerald immediately leaned on the counter, relaxing a bit.“Well, I’ve always been into tech—coding, apps, that sort of thing.”“After some tough times in my life, I wanted a fresh start.”“Something happened to me and I don't really want to talk about that part of my life at the moment.”“Venus Hills group seems like the perfect place to learn and grow.”“Your company’s work on secure communications? It’s inspiring.” “I think that is all I can say for now.” Sara Gerald immediately added as she smiled gleefully at Emily, the receptionist.Emily immediately nodded enthusiastically. “Oh, totally! We’re all about innovation with a purpose. What’s your background? Any specific projects?” Emily immediately asked, her voice was laced with a mixture of curiosity and bewilderment.“I dabbled in a startup idea once—a messaging app with tamper detection.”“Life got in the way, but I’m eager to dive back in. How about you? How long have you been here?”“Five years now,” Emily replied. “I s

    “I believe she’ll be safe. Sara Gerald is my sister, she is smart, resourceful. Plus, she’s got that fire in her now.”General Carl Gerald paused, glancing back toward the kitchen where the women were chatting.“Also, Mrs. Juliet Marcus and Debra Zachs have promised to help watch over her.”“But they won’t be following her to Venus Hills. Sara, my sister, needs to do this on her own. It’s part of her healing, her growth.” General Carl Gerald's voice was laced with a mixture of authority and determination as he spoke.Detective Steve frowned. “Are you sure about this General Carl Gerald? I actually spent over three thousand dollars purchasing this nano piece of monitoring tech.” Detective Steve immediately said as he stared at General Carl who had already made up his mind.“Well I really appreciate your efforts, Lieutenant Alex and Detective Steve…but we are doing it my way.” General Carl Gerald immediately added, his voice was laced with authority and regulated precision.“No problem,

    The whole situation was intense as everyone reeked with emotions from Sara Gerald.Sara Gerald immediately turned to Lieutenant Alex.“Lieutenant Alex, your tough love? It kept me sharp.”"You’ve taught me to fight back, to not be a victim of my circumstances.” Sara Gerald's voice was laced with a mixture of happiness and gratitude as she stared at Detective Steve before saying her kind words to her.“And you Detective Steve, your smarts, your plans—they’ve saved us more times than I can count.”“You both treat me like family, and I’m so grateful.” Again, smiling gleefully at Detective Steve, she smiled at him and turned her gaze to Mrs Juliet Marcus.“Then to Mrs. Juliet Marcus: “Juliet, your kindness, your wisdom—it’s like having a second mom.”“Mrs Juliet Marcus, you’ve listened to my fears, my hopes, and never judged. And Debra Zachs, my sister from another mister, you’ve been there through the laughs and the tears.”“Brainstorming with you? It’s what kept my passion alive and I a
