Chapter 49 - She really know how to mess with people

[Next day]

Jemisha woke up and saw Chris was still sleeping next to her.

She gave him a kiss and left the bed to take a shower.

When she was out of the shower and standing in front of the closed to get some cloths, when a pair of arms wrapped around her waist.

"Good morning Rose." Chris gave her a kiss.

She smiled and kissed him back.

'Chris after my meeting with Blake and Hugo, I'll go over to Shanna.'

'While I enjoy what we have now, I sometimes just want a little more.'

"You know how I feel about it, but I do understand your side to it as well."

Jemisha gave him another kiss. 'Don't worry, I understand your point of few and I agree to it, we are just starting to live our lives. I just want to discuss my options that's all.'

"Hmm"

They both got dressed and went down to the kitchen and made breakfast together.

After they were done eating, the doorbell rang, Chris was doing the dishes while she opened the door.

'Hugo!'

'Where is Blake?'

"He will be a little late, somebody screwed up at his company and…"

Jemisha let Hugo inside and picked up her phone.

'Blake I don't care if somebody screwed up, you get over here within 15 minutes and take that problem with you.'

Chris who heard everything was laughing in the kitchen.

'Do you want some coffee?'

"If there is still left then please bring me a pot."

Jemisha giggled.

Chris brought him a mug, "There is more so…"

"Are you living with her now?"

"What? Are you telling me we can't live together before marriage?"

"If so… then no, I'm only staying over."

Hugo started to laugh.

"Rose I'll take Spike out for a run." Chris gave her a kiss on the head.

Chris changed his clothes and called for Spike.

Chris opened the door and saw Blake walking up to the door.

"Your late."

"I know…"

"Hurry up inside before Hugo is going to claim all her attention and there is some coffee in the kitchen, looks like you need some."

"Thanks."

Chris left with Spike for a run.

"Are you two living together now?"

'No he is just staying over.' She said sarcastically.

Hugo started to laugh.

"But aren't Jack and Jake going to nag you? You are their little sister now." Blake said from the kitchen.

'They won't dare.'

"I heard you were adopted by them, what's up with that?" Hugo asked her.

"Humm… Well I would like some peace in my life. Being targeted because I was an Argenti was to troublesome."

Blake was in the kitchen and asked her, "But now that your adopted by Jack and Jake, won't you be automatically somebody of the underworld?"

'No I promised to stay grey.'

Blake came back with a mug of coffee.

He opened his laptop but Jemisha took it.

She looked through the file and found the mistake.

'What an amateur…'

'Did this proposal already got send out?'

"No…"

Jemisha was typing up the proposal all over again within 15 minutes, and again could reduce cost here and there and gave it back to Blake.

'Just fire those incompetent trash.'

Blake looked at it and jumped up and hugged her. "You saved me, I should have you look through all my business proposals as a final check."

'Sure I don't mind.'

Jemisha then opened up her laptop and showed Blake the program he asked for.

"You already finished it?"

'Of course I did, why do you think Warry has dark circles under his eyes.'

Blake looked at him.

"Well that's because I was tasked to try and hack it."

"And?"

"Impossible… I even let it loos on the best hackers in the world and they couldn't even crack the first layer."

'This is your security system of your vault in your jewelry store. Un-hackable and only the manager and yourself have access to the vault, so theft would be easily traceable.

'Of course there will be a database of all the employers who work there, but we need to modify your display cases so they can only be opened by a key card. Every key card will be registered to the employer and will registered whenever he or she opens the display, and the camera's in the store record all day long.'

'What do you think?'

Blake hugged her and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Girl you're a genius."

'Thank you for the compliment.'

"So what's is it going to cost me?"

Jemisha showed him the numbers.

"Is that before or after taxes?"

'After, but since you'll be doing me a solid as to promote my company…'

She showed him new numbers.

"Are you serious!?"

'What… still too expensive?'

"No I thought the first bill was cheap…"

"What will the maintenance cost be?"

'Monthly or every quarter of a year?'

"What do you recommend?"

'Well every quarter of a year is sufficient enough. It will only cost you 25.000 dollars every quarter and the maintenance will not only be software based, everything will be checked, repaired or even replaced if necessary.'

'It will only be done when the store is closed to customers, and only you or the manager is required to be present when this will be done.'

'All the employers have to leave their key in the store, if one is missing…then too bad for that person. But that person would be perceived as suspicious. Also when a key card is lost or stolen you need to inform my company so the access can be blocked. When it's found report in as well so we can lift the block.'

"Damn my store is better secured than the best prison."

'Well as it should be…you currently have roughly over 500mil worth of jewelry in your store.'

Blake laughed. "Is there anything you don't know?"

'There is enough I don't know.'

Blake than drafted up a cooperation contract and they signed it.

She got a copy of it.

Chris returned from his run and saw they were talking about none business related things.

"By the way Blake Rose, how are the permit's coming along in Australia?"

"Well I got half of them already, but there are a few who will take another month."

"And what about Bonnie and Clyde?"

Blake looked at Hugo.

Jemisha showed the picture she took of them before she left.

"Wow they are so pretty now."

'Right… here listen to this.'

She played the sound they make when they are calling.

"No wonder they are called barking owls."

"So when are you going back to Australia?"

'When all my permits are given to me.'

"How long will you be staying there?" Blake asked.

'I don't know… maybe 2 weeks, it depends on the contractor.'

'And I'll be staying at Jake's during that time.'

Chris came back to the living room.

"Rose don't forget you have an appointment with Shanna soon."

'Your right!'

"Don't you go complain about me to her."

Jemisha smiled 'I wouldn't dare…'

Jemisha gave Chris a kiss.

"Why do you need to go to Shanna?" Hugo asked.

Jemisha grind 'To discuss my birth control options.'

Hugo and Blake both spat out the sip of coffee they had took and looked at her with big eyes.

'See you later.'

Chris had taken a few pictures of the both of them and send it to Jake and Jack

Mouse: your little sister told them about getting birth control.

Jake and Jack received the picture with his text and the both were laughing so hard.

Jake: She really know how to mess with people.

Jack: This is gold!
