David fell back laughing. He had heard the whole conversation between Andriana and Karlye.
"Oh my God, now I understand why you're so interested in her ", he laughed.
Karlye scoffed.
"So now I am a stalker " he smirked.
David sat back trying to catch his breath after laughing so hard.
"I don't think you will be able to crack this one " he breathed.
Karlye sighed.
"Any updates on our guests ?" he asked trying. To change the subject.
David nodded.
"We have their location, but they haven't made any movements, so we are observing them now," he reported.
"Keep me updated ", Karlye got up, heading to a meeting.
"Alright, but wait what will you do now ?"
"About ?".
"Her ?" he raised his eyebrow.
Karlye smirked and walked away.
David smiled, "Guess she is in trouble "
.....
"Will you be alright ?" Mira asked Andriana.
Andriana nodded getting out of her car.
"Thanks for dropping me off " she said.
"Well after what happened this morning, I'm worried about you "
Andriana sighed, "I am sorry about that ....I still don't know what happened ".
"It's alright, let's think about that later . Call me in case of anything ". She said.
Andriana nodded.
Mira watched her walk off and sighed.
"I need to fix this ... it's my fault after all, she murmured, then drove off.
Karlye had just got back from his second meeting when his assistant announced he had a guest.
He frowned.
"Do I have an appointment with them "
"No, but she said her name was Miss Greenwood"
Karlye leaned and smirked.
"Let them in " he said.
A few minutes later Mira walked in.
She had never seen Karlye face-to-face or ever dreamed of meeting him, but here she was in his huge, expensive-looking office.
"Miss Greenwood, what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?" he muttered, gesturing for her to sit.
Mira gulped taking a seat.
"Since you know who I am, I will cut to the point ", she uttered.
"And that is ?".
Mira met his gaze, his deep blue, calm eyes stared down at her, but something else hid behind those beautiful orbs, making her look away.
"I came to apologise about what happened last night and this morning ", she said.
"I believe that was between Miss Davison and me," he said.
"Yes, but all this happened because of me, if I had attended the event as I should have, then she wouldn't have been there and ...."
"So what exactly are you apologising about ?" he cut in, "Did I say she offended me in any way?"
"Huh...but ...wait but " Mira stammered.
"Did any of my actions make it seem like she offended me ?" he asked.
Mira frowned thinking about it.
"No " she said.
He had invited Andriana to dinner and sent flowers to her, those weren't the actions of someone offended.
"Then the consequences bit ...meant ?!" she murmured.
He chuckled, "That is for her to find out".
Mira chuckled awkwardly, his smile didn't reach his cold yet beautiful eyes.
"And since you're here, I believe we can help each other ", he let out.
....
Andriana got a call from Samantha during her lunch break.
"Hello Samantha, something wrong ?" She asked.
"It's Mira ", cried Samantha.
"Mira ...what happened to her "
Samantha was crying, "She left for Mr Lockhart's office a while ago so she could apologise about what happened between you too, but hasn't returned yet ".
"How long has it been ?" Andriana asked.
"Three hours now ....I tried calling her, but there was no answer. And I tried calling the offices of Mr Lockhart, and they claim to haven't seen her," she cried.
Andriana got up grabbing her bag.
"It must be him, let me go check, then get back to you ",. she said.
"Okay, be careful and call me when you get there ", Samantha sniffed.
Samantha hung up and turned to Mira, who was seated back, holding back her laughter.
"Satisfied?" She asked while sitting down.
Mira nodded, "You need to try acting that was so believable"
"I hope my monthly bonus will be huge" said Samantha.
"It will, now I hope Andriana doesn't kill me before that " she muttered.
Samantha sighed, "I feel bad for her having a friend like you . She sounded worried ".
Mira leaned back sighing.
"I know, but Andriana deserves better ...after everything she had gone through, if there is a chance for her to be happy, I will give her away happily ".
Samantha breathed, "But you forgot to ask if that is what she wants too "
