Chapter 17 - THE GRAHAMS...

Ding!

Gavin walked out of the elevator,he walked into the open luxurious living room that had two pretty looking maids at it's entrance,the maids bowed and Gavin walked in, an extremely pretty looking lady in her twenties,looked like a mixed race from afar,but she looked quite beautiful than the famous pretty celebrities,she was talking with another elegant and beautiful looking lady that looked like she was in her late twenties,she was practically well maintained, immediately,the younger lady noticed Gavin,she rose up from the couch she was seated,she smiled at Gavin,

"Little Gavin, you're here!, I've missed you so much..."said the lady.

"Sister,mom!"greeted Gavin coldly.

"You're so cool,come over and give me a hug will you?"pleaded Bertie.

Gavin's expression didn't change,he walked over to her side with his hands in his pocket,she pulled him closer and embraced him,

"The quality of your face increases daily,I brought a lot of gifts,check them up later,will you?"said Bertie.

"Hmmm!"

Gavin walked out of the living room,the older lady was Gavin's and Bertie's mother,Mrs. Graham,she was very maintained and looked too equisite,her gray eyes drooped as she watched Gavin leave,

"He's so strange, he's always cold with me and I don't dare nag at him,his cold gaze puts me miles away,he talks too little, I'm worried he's antisocial,I don't even get to know when he's okay or not,he only became like this after the incident..."said Lisa.

Lisa was Mrs. Graham's name, Bertie's face turned stoic after she heard about the incident,

"You didn't find anything about the incident till now?"asked Bertie.

"Till now we can't find any clues, it's strange,the informations were hidden rather deeply and we've sealed the issue since it's too complex to solve..."replied Lisa replied.

"But mom,did you forget Gavin was always cold since he was young?,why are you referring to the incident,he obviously had no damaged physical and mental health,You hired the best world's experts for him,they guaranteed he was okay,you should learn to warm up to him..."replied Bertie.

"Alright,Your grandmother's birthday ball is coming up soon, we're trying to make a list of the guests, could you help me with that?"said Lisa.

"I would..."

Gavin came out of the shower,steams could be seen from the bathroom as he walked out of it,he was already wearing a casual sweater and pants,and was now drying his hair,his phone rang,it was his private phone,he answered the call without checking the caller's ID,

"Speak!"said Gavin coldly.

"You should report to the headquarters tomorrow,you have an order to take..."

"Time?"said Gavin.

"3pm!"

Gavin ended the call sharply without any second thoughts...

He took out his laptop,and a file seemed to appear on it,he looked through,

"She's the girl?"said Gavin in a low voice.

He scrolled through the page at several intervals then smiled,the kind of smile he never to showed to anyone including his family...

*** ASTRID VILLA ***

Bellarose was in her room,she seemed very uncomfortable,and scattering the bedsheets unhappily,

"That silly guy!"

"Who asked him to say that to her?"

"I'm so uncomfortable!"

"Hmph!,so angry!"

Gavin's handsome face was flashing through her mind at intervals, especially,his mesmerizing and enticing voice,was still heard,

"Get a hold of yourself, Rose!"screamed Bellarose.

Her phone rang at this moment,she dashed over to the dressing chest and picked up her phone,it was a strange number,

"Who's speaking?"

"It's Cassandra,I got your phone number from one of your social media accounts, I'm deeply sorry about what happened!"said Cassandra.

"It's okay!"

"But, I must say it's rather strange for the President to look after a girl like that,he has an extremely cold attitude towards girls, it's so strange,have you met him before?"

"No, I haven't, quit talking about him to me, I'm so unhappy right now..."

"Sure, I'll see you tomorrow, do check for assignments of apply for a leave!"

"I'm not applying for leave , I'm okay now..."
