The office of the CEO was filled with terror and cold silence, no one dares to speak or was courageous enough to utter a word first when she doesn't make a move beforehand. Her sloe-eyed cast a blazing stare at the man standing at her lovely mahogany desk not moving an inch.
The way she taps her fingers nails in the desk as if grinding the fear of the man in front of her. He sighed excessively frigid sweats pouring insane on his forehead while staring at the bottom of his rugged black shoes not bold enough to look at her face.
" Mr. Levingstay what brings you here? " she asked directly the man forthwith pulled his two knees to the ground and start pledging for forgiveness. The woman secretly smirk a layer of wrinkles spotted on her face when she turned an eye at the three women whose stunned upon seeing their father.
" Mr. Levingstay please fix your posture, I don't want to see you like that " she demanded leaning against her black leather swivel chair and waiting for the man to rise in his feet.

The haft of her body was concealed in her mother's back, wearing a blue dress and her hair was neatly fixed into ponytails. She was quite younger unlike the girl on the other side of their mother who look more mature. Furrowed brow while resting his chin in his hands.
" Why does he look at that girl too attentively? " Ma'am Dorit wondered gazing at his son. At that very moment, a flash of a sparkling idea suddenly entered Ma'am Dorit's mind making her grin and didn't bother to ask her son for some recommendations about the issue of levingstay debt.
With a constant state, she drew and focus on Mr. Levingstay who was also a friend of hers back in high school days. The grimoire entails on her face a while ago vanished a brighter smile greets Mr. Levingstay instead, no wonder his afraid to stare at her face at first.
" Mr. Levingstay you know I'm a businesswoman? And you probably know how this world works. Since you were a businessman back then" She asked.

" Very well then, I hope you wouldn't break your promise this time as well Mr. Levingstay? I'll give you one last chance to pay back you're debt "
Mr. Levingstay was too stunned after hearing what Ma'am Dorit said, bulge eyes erupting gaze at Ma'am Dorit in surprise.
" I, I couldn't utter anything but a hundred of thanking you for reconsidering. I'll pay back no matter what the causes it will be " Mr. Levingstay said in a calm tone more likely than a while restless and frigid.

" But on one condition? " Ma'am Dorit reciprocate making the family flush assuming it was the end of the discussion.
" In one condition? What isn't then? " Mr. Levingstay uttered, Dorit just nodded in response.
Before she can even convey her so-called ' one condition ' his son abruptly stood up in his chair " Is there something wrong? " She murmured.
" I have a meeting to attend, just make sure this issue will be cleared when I come back " Her son demanded and stroll towards the door but before that he once again took an immediate glance at the girl in the right, before passing on them and vanished in the scene.
" Anyway Mr. Levingstay before that, I want to sincerely apologize for what I did to your family " Dorit pointed out.
Mr. Levingstay just shook his head reassuring her that it wouldn't be taken seriously into their hearts as long as no hostility will arise between them. " To show my sincerity, I'll return the house to your family "
The family didn't anticipate Ma'am Dorit just enunciate they froze and flinched with wide stares gazing at her. " it's that true?! Ma'am? " Mrs. Olive Levingstay asked who started trudging beside her husband as her two daughters followed her stuck like glue stick in her arms.
" You heard me loud and clear Mrs. Levingstay " Dorit replied.
The family felt relieved due to what Ma'am Dorit said, at last, they can finally leave and be gone to their inlaw house which is kinda depressing for them to stay a bit longer Mr. Levingstay might end up going to sorcerer because ill-mouthed Mrs. Olive's relatives had.

" Very welcome Mrs. Levingstay instead of the house I want one of your daughters to work at my company as collateral that's the one condition I'm saying earlier " Dorit parroted sneering at the reactions of the Levingstay.
Just like Mrs. Olive thought she is a wonderful woman after all that's why don't judge a book by its cover after all you wouldn't know what is running in their minds without knowing them properly.
" Eh?! " Their Daughters scowled. " sighed, if that's what you want I would not disrupt your decision " Mr. Levingstay crooned.
" Great to hear that! Cause I don't believe in promises anymore I need assurance. Hope you understand my terms " Ma'am Dorit pleased said with secondhand evil hidden in her smile. Her gorgeous bait to entrap his daughters was a dark scheme for the possibility that he'll pay. That's how money was important to her every cent counted.
" I understand, my daughter Zubin can work here, don't worry she's smart and well manner " Mr. Levingstay added pointing at the left side of their mother and also their oldest daughter.
Unlikely Ma'am Dorit wasn't pleased and shook her head with squint eyes making Mr. Levingstay cast a glance of confusion. "Is there something wrong? " Mr. Levingstay asked.
" Not her, but that one? " She blurted out. Fixed gaze looking at her right.
