The three men, especially Damien, felt like a bucket of cold water was dumped on their backs. They immediately got on their feet. The clicking of Katherine's heels as she walked towards the desk was a little haunting, making them gulp. She had a smile on her face but she looked like she was a predator waiting to catch her prey and eat it alive.
Caleb and Jeffrey stood up straight as if they got caught red-handed. How funny was it that she entered the room just in time when Damien said those words. Surely she wasn't eavesdropping, was she?
Damien watched as she strutted towards him, a paper bag in her hand of what he assumed was their lunch. "Hey…" he muttered, not knowing what else to say in this situation. If it were any other person, he could have made up a lie and say it without batting an eyelid. But this was Katherine, he knew better than to lie to her.
