Chereads / Her Darling CEO / Chapter 52 - Drink

Chapter 52 - Drink

Ever since they met at the park, Adira didn't get a view of Liam, not that she initially wanted to see him, just she had gotten used to seeing him.

It was the holidays so Theo wasn't going to school, he always had Adira or Jenner with him.

Sitting round the table, they were playing chess.

"That reminds me, I got the lead role."

Jenner said out of the blue, though her eyes were still focused on the game, she was so surprised how Theo was about to beat her in her own game.

She was a pro when it came to chess and the only person that defeated her always was her brother, Liam.

"Wow!!!!! that's great to hear." Adira commented.

"Mmmm, your sister got the second lead role, she was furious when the results came out." Jenner said with a chuckle.

"She's not my sister, we aren't even related." Adira replied briefly.

"What???? Tell me more...."

Jenner eyes glimmered when she looked up at Adira.

"I don't really want to talk about it, you know (she discreetly points Theodore)."

"That's fine, that's fine. I need to concentrate on my game with my little champ." Jenner spoke competitively.

"Check." Theo said, winning Jenner for the fifth time today.

"Uhn???"

Jenner had her mouth hung open after seeing this. Adira felt Jenner's competitive nature dwindling and knew she had to make her feel better before she sulk like last time.

"Look... it's your brother's assistant." Adira said with a small smile.

"Hello." Adira greeted

Arranging herself, Jenner turned towards the door but she didn't see anyone there, turning towards Adira only to find her with a huge smile on her face.

"Adira!!!!!!" Screaming, Jenner ran after Adira.

********

"Let's celebrate my first work!!!" Jenner shouted.

"How what do we need to cook??" Adira mentioned, she felt very happy that Jenner got the lead role.

"No, no, let's go for a drink??" Jenner said whole stretching her hands towards Adira's shoulder, she had been chasing Adira around the house since and she was tired.

Hearing Jenner say this Adira heard a little voice in her head that said the same thing to her.

"I don't think so, there will be no one to stay with Theo." Adira replied while throwing a quick glance at Theo.

"Argggh, just two bottles only, please....." Jenner pleaded.

"We would come back immediately, please....." Jenner said again.

**********

"Sir, we still aren't getting any information about her, it may seem as though, someone cleared all trails."

"knight go deep, make sure the next time I see you, I will be hearing something better, leave!!!" Liam said.

He really wanted to figure out what she asked him to.

"Tsk tsk tsk." Carl tsked while walking in,he had a wine glass in his hand.

"Is Knight slaking????" Carl asked while taking a sit on the long coach.

"I don't think those words rhyme.... Knight..... it's just a covered up stuff but he'll be done with it. I am sure." Liam replied to his words.

"Indeed... the guy is always looking stuffed up." Carl commented.

"Same goes to you bro, why don't we get a drink.... what do you think???" Carl continued noticing that Liam was not going to reply him.

"Let's go, sometimes you free yourself.... I am a doctor, so trust me bro.." Carl said.

"You are only serious when you are inside your office, when you come out then...you are the opposite!!" Liam said while dragging on his tie.

"By the way, Alan will be angry if we don't tell him... give me a minute to call him okay.

******

Sitting on a chair in front of the bar tender, she had an almost empty glass in her hand. Her hair was tied back and rolled.

"Can I get another glass please??" her babish voice sounded causing the other person sitting next to her to turn.

"Ashlin!!!!!" Adira screamed because of the loud music there.

She and Jenner had come by the bar, this was the best bar so far, it controlled the population that entered and they were mostly elites.

Jenner had walked forward leaving Adira behind to dance after she had taken a few glasses.

"Adira, it's so good meeting you here."
