"That punk, What exactly did he do this time" Maya questioned "The devil of a CEO sent me a text suggesting I sleep with him. His words were aggravating so I lashed out at him after which I handed in my resignation," Mel replied with a mysterious smile Maya just shook her head, Jace was getting worse with his lust by the day. "Mel stay on the low for now, I'm afraid he might come after you for going against him. Maya suddenly said looking frightened "What if I tell you I had brief adventure today" Mel replied with a smile Maya's eyes roamed all over Mel's body. Her eyes stopped on Mel's wrists, they were blood red, it was as a result of the way she was gripped earlier. "No way don't tell me he already did!" Maya exclaimed in disbelief. Mel then told her friend everything that had transpired. Maya's eyes were filled with rage. She moved close to hug her. "Oh poor Mel You were frightened weren't you?" Mel laughed at her friend's reaction, You should have known by now that no situation is capable enough to scare me. She replied defiantly . "Crazy girl. I can only imagine what that son of a bitch had in mind to do to you" Maya said fuming "Maya my scared little kitten, Mel said patting her friends head. If anything, he would be the one to get hurt, have you forgotten how painful my punches are, or how those who bullied you back in school ran off with the fear that I would haunt them down". Mel said boastfully. "Instead of spewing trash, you had better go kneel at the alter on Sunday, thanking God for sending a saviour to you." "You're lucky though, It's rare to meet people willing to help in such situations." Maya added "I already told you he's a sensei. If I were in his shoes I would do the same." Mel replied "O yes, The whole world knows your deeds already, If there was ever an award for those who defended others, I'm sure you would claim the top prize." Maya said and they both burst into laughter Just then, the door bell rang and Maya walked up to the door to see who it was. Just as she expected, It was the delivery man, he brought two boxes of pizzas. Maya collected her package and wished the delivery man a great day, after which she returned back in. "Jeeez I'm so famished. What order did you make?" Mel asked eyeing the package in Maya's hand "Pizza's. Tasty ones at that." Maya said in an enticing tone, she handed a box to Mel and kept one for herself. After eating to their fill. They played girl dress up games, using the multiplayer option, they played against each other. Maya won against Mel in two of the three rounds played. It wasn't a new thing as Maya had a high taste in fashion, She even had a brand under her name. As for Mel, she preferred rocking kidult wears, she always saw putting on evening gowns and rocking the latest designer wears while looking like a fairy princess as Chaotic. It was now 8:00pm in the evening, and Mel was set to leave for her apartment. She looked at Maya and screamed "There's a bug on your face" Maya despised bugs a lot, immediately she heard Mel's statement. She Jumped up and began shaking her whole body rigorously, she was screaming as she was doing this. After a minute, she opened her eyes and looked around for Mel. She was no where to be found, it was then that she discovered that Mel had pranked her "Crazy girl, she couldn't even say goodbye, Just you wait till our next meeting" Maya said smiling mischievously. ***** Ethan was in his office, when he had a knock on the door. Assistant Charles had earlier informed him about Darth's plan to visit the office. "The door is not locked Ethan said coldly. Darth walked in, he had a creepy smile on his face, It was a smile conveying all the evil intentions he had in mind. Ethan focused on a file on his table, paying no attention to the man in front of him. Ethan was disgusted by his presence, he wanted to ask him out of his office immediately but he didn't, he had to hear what Darth came to say. After all he had expected the visit. He knew Darth wouldn't sit still after he fired the heads of department brought in by him. "I see you're doing a good job in reviving the company, You're just like your father you know, so swift in taking actions" Darth said with a grimace Ethan did not respond. "I heard you dismissed the heads of department on charges of fraud, it's such a pity. I employed them thinking they were competent hands, how sad" Darth spoke again. "Isn't It crazy how those lies file out of your mouth so easily, say what you actually came to say and leave, seeing you makes me sick to my stomach." Ethan said without mincing words "You may be the CEO of this company, but you have to operate on the decisions of the board of directors. Liam should be left in charge of the Cloth's department, I believe you're wise enough to comprehend my words" Darth said finally cutting to the chase "Seems you're forgetting something. Let me remind you one last time, I'm the Chairman and the CEO of this company, I take others from no one, absolutely no one not even the board members. So find yourself a better back up. Ethan said Icily. "Let's see how much more you can put up that brave act of yours" Darth said gritting his teeth. "It will be too late when you find out its not an act. I mean every single thing I say. Excuse me" Ethan said turning his focus back to the file on his table Darth grinned widely and walked out of the office. It was obvious that he felt humiliated, he had come to threaten Ethan and now he ended up getting threatened.
