Chereads / Ruthless Goddess / Chapter 8 - Date

Chapter 8 - Date

The night quickly fell and Freya parked her car in front of the house. She walked in and found her sister on her usual spot, near the fire place.

"you were not in school?" Dahlia asked.

"I went to your new company today. I went to see it with you" Freya said while seating "but I came and you were gone. I met Eder and your secretary" Dahlia looked up at her.

"Eder Galann" Dahlia said with narrowed eyes. "stay very far from him" she warned, with the kind of voice that made Freya shiver. Freya blinked a few minutes feeling nervous all of a sudden.

"okay" she replied and stood up " I will go to my room" she started to walk away

"Freya" Dahlia called again and Freya froze. She turned back slowly and looked at her sister.

"yes" she replied. Dahlia watched her with narrowed eyes that made Freya feel uncomfortable.

"heed my warning" Dahlia said finally.

"okay" Freya said and walked hastily to my room. Whens she walked into her room, she closed the door and leaned on it. She took a deep breath and sighed to calm herself down. Dahlia was truly scary when she wants to be. Maybe she should abandon the idea of completing this mad game of hers but then she would loose her dare. On top of that, their was something interesting she needed to verify. So sorry sister but I am not going to stop here, she thought. If her suspicions were confirmed then life will become even more interesting. A small devilish smile curved on her lips again. Though she will have to be careful with her sister's warning.

As Freya was lost in her thoughts, her phone vibrated in her bag. She brought it out and it was a message from an unknown number. She opened it.

[ hey Freya. I hope you did not forget about our appointment tomorrow.?] a smile spread on her lips. She went to seat on her bed first thinking of a nice reply.

[hey, Mr Eder. I haven't forgotten don't worry. Where do we meet and by what time?] she sent the message and smiled but her smile slowly disappeared when he was taking time to answer. She thought that maybe he was busy so she dropped the phone on the bed and went to shower.

A while later she came out and looked at the phone, there was still no answer from him but he had seen the message. She started to over think whether the message was not well written or was their something wrong. She read and read it again but she could not find anything wrong. At the end she dropped the phone and slept off.

The next day when she woke up, Freya went to take a shower first. She had totally forgotten about the phone and the messages. She went ahead to prepare for the day. She had to go to school. When she was ready she went to pick her phone and that was when she remembered. She sat on her bed and looked into her message box. He had sent her a message.

[ come to the oil company tomorrow at 11 Am. I will come and pick you] A smile appeared on her face and she stood up happily.

When she walked down, she found Dahlia getting ready to leave. She greeted her sister and left. From the rear view mirror of her car, she saw Dahlia standing their and watching her car speed away. She felt a pang of guilt for what she was about to but she quickly dismissed it.

Eder walked into the building of the company and replied to some greetings. He then went up to Dahlia's office expecting to see her their but he found another person in the office. It was a woman dressed very formally with blonde hair and brown eyes. She was packing a few papers in a bag. When she took notice of him she looked up at him.

"oh, Good morning Mr Galann"

"who are you?" he asked instead of answering her greeting.

" I am Georgina, I am an envoy from the Quinn corp to pick those papers" she replied

" you are not taking them anywhere" he said simply.

"but sir, Mrs Quinn ordered me t-"

"I said, you are not taking those papers anywhere. if she wants them she should come here and get them" he said with a simple but authoritative voice that was foreign to his usual playful self. He walked out of the office leaving the bewildered envoy behind. Georgina picked her phone and called Siara.

***

Dahlia sat in her office lost in thoughts, when Siara knocked on the door. She did not reply but Siara came in nonetheless.

"excuse me, boss" Dahlia looked up at her , leaning back in her chair. "I received a call from Georgina, the envoy. She said that Mr Galann refused that she take any paper out of the company" Dahlia's expression darkened. She stood up and walked out of the office.

A while later, Dahlia pulled her car to a stop a few meters away from the building entrance because she saw Freya standing in front of the building. She narrowed her eyes but she did not move, she wanted to see what her sister would do. After a while she saw a black car stopping in front of her and her sister happily walked in it. Dahlia narrowed her eyes and followed the car as it sped away.

The black car stopped in front of a restaurant. Eder walked out of it and opened the car door for Freya. Together they walked into the restaurant. Dahlia drove forward so as to be able to see through the restaurant's glass windows and she saw Eder pulling a chair for her sister. Then he went to seat across her. They started talking and smiled. Dahlia narrowed her eyes. A weird feeling she had never felt before came forth. picked her phone and called her sister. She put the phone to her ear and watched her sister from her car. She watched her sister pick her phone from her bag. Freya's expression changed as she watched the screen of her phone. However, she did not picked it. She just put down the phone and returned to discussion with Eder. Dahlia's aura flared as she dialed Freya's number again. This time she picked the call after having excused herself from the table.
