" Is she…the one ?"

" Yeah…Parents don't care about her…"

" What do you mean? They didn't send the ransom?"

" Yeah…They demanded to have their daughter before giving us the money."

" Geez.!! She is their only child!"

" Yes. Apparently…she isn't as important as their wealth. "

" Ughh…We can't just let her go."

" That's right. She is going to be a beauty in the future. She is going to fetch us a high amount of money if we sell her to Mr.B ."

" No! She is way too young! And-"

" That's enough. It's final. I get to make decisions here. "

Two silhouettes of men in a dim lit room, their shadows casting a horrifying picture, were talking as they watched an unconscious bound seven years old girl in a white dress.

They had kept the girl as a hostage. Demanding her parents to give them a ridiculous high amount of money for her freedom.

As usual, her parents refused to send the money until they had their daughter in their arms. It wasn't because they couldn't afford it. Heck! It was a measly amount to them.

Yeah. This wasn't the first time the young girl had been kidnapped. Fortunately, it was the sixth attempt.

The men left her in the room, probably to get the mysterious Mr.B . The young seven year old girl was left in the room.

" I shouldn't have had even a tiny bit of hope. They would never save me. I just suffered for nothing." The seemingly young girl, who was sleeping, spoke.

She had her hands bound behind her back, and her legs tied. She tried sitting upright, since her initial position was lying on the ground. It was difficult, but she did it. The strain from the ropes bounding her hands made her wince in pain.

" Ugghh…This kidnappers are the worst of the bunch. All the previous kidnappers had treated me well. They didn't tie me up like this. They just confined me into a room, and made sure I ate three times daily. "

Yeah, she actually used to stay weeks with some of the kidnappers. And they didn't treat her that bad. Some of them even got her gadgets and toys to play with.

" Phew!!! I am finally free!" The young girl had wiggled the rope off her hands, and untied the ropes around her legs.

Due to the wiggling, her wrists were bright red, but she wasn't concerned about that at the moment.

She walked slowly towards the door, and placed her ear on it.

" There's no one outside."

She had been listening to the sounds behind the door for an hour, and didn't hear anything. She had heard when one of the kidnappers said he was going out, when they thought she was sleeping. So she assumed the other man was keeping watch over her.

She got up , and removed the tiny black hair clip holding her jet hair black hair, and inserted it into the keyhole. After twisting and turning it for a minute, the door opened.

She came out of the door, into a living room. Well…it can't actually be considered a living room, judging by the furniture present. Just two chairs.

The young girl had no time for sightseeing, and looked around the living room. Seeing no one, she ran towards the door, but it was also locked.

" Good ~ That means there's no one here. "

She hadn't returned the hair clip, so she used it to unlock the door. Outside, there was a jungle waiting for her to explore.

The kidnappers brought her to a small cabin in the middle of a jungle, away from civilization. Here, no one can find out what they were up to.

The young girl ran directly into the forest. She encountered different pathways along the way, but she was never conflicted, and just chose a pathway.

Soon, she reached the edge of a road. Turned out she had mapped out the way when the Kidnappers took her , and thought she was sleeping.

" Now…This…is…the…hardest…path." She said breathlessly. It was but an empty road . No cars passing, No people. It was barren! How was she going to make it to civilization?

RING!!!!

The young girl brought out a phone from under her gown. She strapped it on her lap. She picked the phone, and said three words,

" I am out."

She didn't wait to listen to the other person, and hung up. Not long , a black Mercedes Benz jeep appeared. It was dazzling.

It stopped In Front of her , and a female got out of the front seat. She opened the back seat for the young girl, and she got in.

The female dressed like a secretary. And her clothes were quite revealing. She was ' that' kind of secretary. The jeep drove off, and soon entered civilization.

The jeep kept on moving, until it entered into an estate. Standing in the middle of the estate was a giant luxurious mansion. A man and woman were standing in front of the door. Behind them were rows of maids and three butlers.

The young girl got down from the back seat, without waiting for someone to open it for her. She walked up to the couple standing.

The woman moved forward and hugged her tightly.

" My dear~! I was so worried ~ I couldn't sleep for the past two days." The woman engulfed the girl in a tight hug. The said young girl didn't show an ounce of expression, and just allowed the woman to have her way.

" It's good that you are okay! There's this project that came up that you need to supervise. " The man beside the woman spoke up.

" Yes, my darling ~ It's going to be a huge project, and you, my baby ~ is going to make sure it comes out outstanding." The woman joined.

Apparently, these two were her parents. Their daughter just got away from her kidnappers, and the least they could do was comfort her and make sure she was okay. Like seriously! They should have taken her to a hospital, and got her checked. But this…..it was unexpected. A kid no less than seven years old is leading a project that adults should!!

The girl just stared at both of them , with indifference.

" Baby ~ Why is this whore still your secretary? Yeah, I admit she had the skills, but her dressing is unprofessional. You need to sack her Immediately! I have got a number of secretaries you could choose from." Her mother looked at the alluring secretary with a disgusting look.

' You are just jealous that she is more beautiful than you are, and might seduce your husband. ' The young girl thought, as she watched her mother speak angrily at her secretary.

Yeah. Her secretary was a beauty to behold. Having a voluptuous figure, with an alluring beauty. Even though she was concerned about her revealing clothes, she wasn't that affected.

Having seen, and heard enough, the young girl deemed it time to leave. And she did. She walked into the mansion, not sparing anyone a glance.

In her bedroom, she was already cleaned up , had her stomach filled, and was going through some files at her desk.

KNOCK!

Someone tapped lightly at her door. She muttered a soft ' come in' , and the door opened, revealing her secretary.

" Miss, here." Her voice was velvet, and could make anyone become addicted to her voice. She would have been a great singer, but she wasn't cut for it.

The young girl collected the envelope from her and opened it. She read its contents and sighed, before giving it back to her.

" Trash it. Get a chair and sit. We have a lot to do." The young girl said, and continued, what she was doing earlier.

" Miss…But…"

" What! Do you want to get fired?!" The girl asked angrily.

" No. But.." The woman fidgeted with her fingers.

" Good. You are my secretary, and only I can fire you. My mom doesn't have a say in this."

" Don't you have a problem with my dressing?"

" No. As long as you attend to your duties, and give me fantastic results, I don't care whatever you do. You can dress naked for all I care. " The girl signaled the woman to take a seat. But she didn't see the reaction of the woman, since she was engrossed in her work.

They both went through all the files, together.
