An huge smile etched on sofie's face as edie shut the car behind.
"just the perfect girl for my brother" she mumbled to herself.
Edie on the other hand had already lost her boldness after stepping out of the car. She wore a gloomy expression.
"what wrong ed" kate asked worriedly.
Edie forced a smile 'it's nothing kat, let's go to a fast food restaurant " she dragged kate with her.
Noticing edie didn't want to tell her the problem, kate went with the flow" ok"

In the ceo office of draka group, dave walked into the office after Nathan told him to.
"mr dravis, mrs sofie is back to country A"
"hmmm" was all Nathan's response
"and.. And" dave stuttered finally getting the full attention of nathan.
"one of the men you sent to watch over miss edie said that mrs sofie and miss edie met" he paused
"and" Nathan wore a frown
"and miss edie was in a bad mood on getting out of mrs sofie's car"
Everywhere fell silent. Dave broke into cold sweat noticing Nathan was in a bad mood.
"prepare the car" Nathan spoke before standing up.

"hello there brother" sofie had an huge grin plastered on her face"is so rear of you to see your elder sister"
"what did you tell her"
"who" sofie asked
"dont get on my nerve sofie" sofie could feel her brother's rage but she wasn't bothered.
"oh you mean edie" she paused"your play thing"
And then, nathan lost his cool. "how dare you"
"easy there bro" she felt a little scared
"you cant be serious about that poor girl, moreover what's so special about her? She looks more like a nerd with those stupid glasses" she shrugged.
"what gives you the right to talk about her that way"
"am your elder sister"
"don't you ever" he looked her straight in the eye"i mean ever, see her again. She is my business, not yours"
"mom would never accept her"
"I'll take care of that" with that, he strode out. Sofie squealed excitedly.
It's been a long time her brother had lost his cool, not even when he dated his ex anna. 'it seems edie has a huge effect on nathan' she mused.

In the evening, edie was surprised by the large amount of food on the table. She looked at carlos and asked" are we perhaps having a feast i know nothing about " she had an innocent expression.
Carlos wanted to burst into laughter but refrained himself" no miss edie"
"then why are there a lot of food"
"miss edie, this food was asked to be prepared by mr dravis."
"oh" she nodded.
Edie took her seat at the dining table. She looked over at the food sprawled all over the table, she suddenly felt lonely. "would you like to eat with me" she proposed to carlos and the rest of the maids around. They were all shocked and surprised.
"miss edie, we will never do that" carlos immediately declined
"oh ok" edie mumbled.
Nathan strode into the mansion as a maid assisted with his brief case.
"where is edie" he asked no one in particular.
"miss edie is having dinner at the dining" a maid replied.
Nathan walked over to the dining, everyone bowed their head as they greeted "young master" they chorused. His eyes was fixed on edie whose expression was gloomy "what's wrong" he asked concern vivid in his voice.
When edie heard Nathan's voice her eyes lit up.
"don't you like the food, should they change it"
"no.. No, it's fine" she spoke immediately. She didnt wear her glasses.
"how was your day" nathan spoke casually as he started eating.
"normal" edie shrugged. She had decided not to tell nathan about her encounter with sofie. Why would he even care if she met anyone of his family. moreover, their relationship was a contractual one.
"ok" was all nathan reply. 'it seems she isn't willing to tell about her encounter with sofie'.
"how was your day" she directed the conversation to nathan.
"it was ok" was all Nathan's reply.
