"Yes," Tom said. He stretched out his hand and dropped his cellphone on the glass table at the centre.

His eyes darted to the lady's direction not long after.

"We talked on the cellphone for over two hours. Unfortunately, you missed…,"

"That's not a problem or something to be proud of Bro. I can always call him on the phone," The lady now standing close to the centre table said with a confident smile on her face.

She bent and reached out her hands and dropped the files on the table. Her glimmering white suit made her resemble an angel.

"If that was in the past I would have said he would definitely answer your line but at the moment he is too busy to spare you a minute of his time…,"

"Isn't he on vacation so what could he possibly be busy with?" The lady in a white suit let her curiosity get the better of her.

"That is a secret," Tom said standing up to reveal his full height.

He was a tall man with sharp facial features. Even though he was wearing a suit one could easily tell that he had a well-built body.

He was only a few months younger than Kayden.

Tom, the tall guy with ebony hair abandoned the centre table and strolled to his desk kept in the northern part of the vast room.

"Why are you being so stingy with your little sister? Also, why did you mention it when you knew you would not disclose the full reason he is busy on his vacation…,"

"Not even your frowns will make me disclose the truth to you so I will advise that you save your breath," Tom said unmoved by his sister's glares directed at him.

"Don't worry we will be among the first set of people to hear the good news if his plans succeed…,"

"Good news?" The lady asked as she hurried to stand in front of the CEO of Greyson's Corporation.

"What good news…,"

"I have told you I won't divulge anything that has to do with this particular topic so you better heed my advice and return to your office now," Tom said unwaveringly.

He picked up a file on the table and began skimming through the documents.

He acted like the lady in a white suit was invisible.

"You are so mean.," The lady said as she turned and stomped out of the office in anger.

Although his sister was angry, that didn't make Tom change his mind. He proved to be a man of his words with his actions.

Back at Kayden's apartment, Gideon jumped to his feet the moment the King entered the sitting room.

"There is no need to follow me," He said when he saw Gideon try to lead the way outside.

"When I get outside I will call to inform you if everywhere is safe," He said without turning to look at Gideon as he wore his shoes.

In a haste, he dashed out of the house.

"I wonder why he is in such a haste," Gideon muttered, his eyes glued to the entrance.

He sat down on the couch. "I have never seen him so anxious before. It hasn't been a long time since we saw each other but it feels like I haven't seen him for a year. He has changed so much," Gideon said as he turned his head to stare out of the window.

At the campus, after walking for quite a while Audrey and Joanna found a spot to sit and relax.

On the bench despite talking to Audrey, Joanna's eyes were always roaming around her surroundings.

Half of her attention was with Audrey while the other was searching for something Audrey didn't know.

"Drey, for last night's incident don't worry I will make it up to you," Joanna said, her eyes focused on those climbing up and down the stairs outside the art building.

"With how absentminded you are right now, I doubt whether you will remember your words again…,"

"What are you saying?" Joanna asked, instantly shifting her gaze to the lady sitting at her right-hand side.

Although they were sitting in an open area, Joanna didn't feel hot because the sun wasn't high up in the sky.

"Who is distracted huh?" Joanna asked with pointy lips.

"You can pretend as much as you want but it's very obvious that you are searching for someone. And I know that it won't be an understatement to say that you are looking for none other than your boyfriend…,"

"I have corrected you that he is not my boyfriend…,"

"Yes, Madam," Audrey replied in a sarcastic tone as she turned her gaze and looked far ahead of her.

"I noticed that I haven't seen him around, which is so unusual… I mean he is always sticking to you like a glue that I can't help but feel jealous of him sometimes. So where is he?" Audrey asked, averting her gaze to Joanna's face once again.

"Did you both perhaps quarrel?" Audrey added. She was surprised to see Joanna's expression turned gloomy at the mention of his name.

"I thought you both went on a date or did the date turn sour?" Audrey tried to guess the reason why Joanna's mood turned out this way.

"We didn't argue… In fact, it would have been even better if we had quarrelled. That way I would know how to make up with him but…," Joanna trailed.

She subconsciously dug her nails into the hand she was clutching when she recalled how he abandoned her in bed last night.

"Instead of sitting here being all miserable, you can be the bigger man and call him… if you are scared to call him then I will do it," Audrey said as she stood up and brought out her cell phone from her trousers pocket.

With her fingerprint, she unlocked her cellphone and was about to dial someone's line when Joanna stood up and held his hand.

"Don't," Joanna shook her head disapprovingly. She sat down afterwards.

Her miserable expression made Audrey feel terrible even though she wasn't aware of what was going on between them.

"Drey, can I ask you something?" Joanna asked Joanna while looking at Audrey's face.
