" It's Aaron's, I'm I right?".
' There she goes again! '. Clara rolled her large lifeless eyes, She sat down comfortably and cleared her throat.
" I don't know who that is! What are you even talking about. Just forget it! Lets not talk about irrelevant things when we have so much to discuss ourselves"
Lara frowned. " What? "
A faint smile appeared on Clara's lips, somehow after a horrible night something changed in her and she was no longer hesitant. " I heard someone is swallowing all our family's subsidiary companies and what's worse it started three years ago and nobody noticed ".
" Well! That's news. Could it be one of your families clan playing tricks "
" That's unlikely but maybe it's possible if they have an accomplice from outside, we would have known if it's our people"
" What if it's other families of Mo clan who live abroad "
" There is no reason for them to come after us, we are weakest of all so why would they attack us ".
" I dunno! It's a family matter I shouldn't intervene... I'm glad to help though! If there is anything I can do just call me "
Lara gave her a cold smile and nod, there wasn't much to talk about, Clara begged her to visit her for the past few days since it would be their last time together before they completely saved ties,
" Here ! You are welcome to Empire's golden ball tomorrow. I don't know if you could make it but you played a big part of all of these ".
Lara handed her a golden and white part before she left. Clara who was calm and composed all the time when she was with Lara expression suddenly changed and clenched her hands heavily till her pale hands turned purple.
The paled complexion suddenly darkened, ' It's you Lara it has to be you. Nobody but you. All my calculations pointed at you, I can't believe you are also one of us and that number at that! Lady in veil never been wrong'
It started with a mere curiosity which turned into obsession.
Such kind of obsession which turned into something worse...
Madness.
Clara's eyes landed on the small tattoo between her two fingers on her left hand and smiled. There was a number ten written on a very small Roman number so unless one views it with a microscope one wouldn't understand what it meant and so the number ten was revealed,
Clara or you may call her Ten Of Hearts.
After getting back everything went back to normal and Kyle was adopting well while Lara was a star rookie of the company, not just her looks and charms she had an enormous number of luck as well,
The difference between their status remained whether here while pretending or when they were back at their true jobs Lara was still someone she couldn't touch,
It gap was like heaven and earth.
Kyle was getting ready to leave by herself after seeing that Lara was so busy with some other people. She packed the necessary files and headed to the elevator when a hand gripped her and forced her to the exit of the stairway. She knew it was Lara all along because of her unique intoxicating scent that's why she didn't resist and followed without even glancing at her,
She had so many thoughts as to why Lara was doing this ' Maybe she is going to apologize ' or ' Maybe she is going to tell her the truth ' Her thoughts revolved around one of those as she waited for Lara's confirmation.
However,
The warm lips suddenly fell onto hers and kissed roughly and since it was unexpected Kyle opened her mouth to take a breath but Lara used that chance to sneak her tongue in her mouth,
It was soft and hot while ruthlessly sweeping Kyle's mouth. Her hands fall on Kyle's chest and started to pinch her middle-sized cup tits. Kyle who was still dumbfounded could only follow her lead but when Lara's hands started to undress her she snapped out of it and pushed her away,
" Wait! We can't do this ".
Lara frowned. " Why? "
" How much is it? "
" What? "
" Since it's the debt I'm paying how about we set a price? Here! It's on my part but you can compromise "
Lara annoyingly took the piece of paper on Kyle's hand and scanned it before her already dark complexion turned into the darkest shade of dark.
Kiss- 1000$, Cuddle-5000$, Foreplay - 10000$, Hard core sex - 50000$
If there is any other request apart from those we can discuss and I will only fulfil it if I see fit. Part B ( Kyle) will have nothing to do once the debt is settled.
" Whatever! "
Lara threw away the piece of paper on the ground and left furiously. Kyle was puzzled ' Did I do something wrong? ' she wondered and shook her head before she left as well,
Her time here was running out and she had to leave as soon as possible before it got out of hand again.
" What is it? You look awful " Soo-Hyun grumbled.
Lara "..." ,
Lara looked at her and ignored her question. She walked towards the sofa and slowly sat down. " How are the preparations "
" Everything is perfect so far and Maggie is adopting so fast in the team "
" Good ! "
Apart from companies under Empire solely owned by Lara herself she has some subsidiaries that ain't under her noble name and Han-Sect Technology is one of them, Although it wasn't well known by normal people, politicians and chaebols known that name very well,
Behind the veil of the rule-abiding company there was so much going on, a way more than one could imagine and thus, Someone with a talent and a background like Maggie that was a perfect place for her.
" As long as we have our gun on her temple she won't do anything fun " Lara coldly added and Soo-Hyun agreed with her. " Aah! Before I forget, I need everything about that Aaron dude don't leave a thing. And did you receive Ayra's report about that incident, right? "
" Yes! Honestly, I didn't know that Morningstars' were one of the families in the Mo clan, It seems that her grandfather left the family to pursue his music career, the family disowned him completely, that was the legendary Mr Morningstar himself,
Because of this, people didn't know the clear root of the ill-fated relationship between Morningstars and the Mornachs when their granddaughters became as close as sisters
Aysel was a music prosody just like her grandfather and was praised by many, she led a fruitful life with the support of the Mornach family due to the close relationship with the daughter of Lidia Rhee Monarch, Olivia and so Ayra was able to get a free ride, or so they thoughts so
Morningstar's sisters were estimated to be one of the legends in the music industry but all those wishful thinking was crushed when Aysel got into an accident and lost her life and Oliver who was with her that day didn't survive either, she died three days after fighting for her life and in her deathbed she cursed Ayra and those were her last words "
" Mhh!....? Who heard them ? ".
" Her mother herself and her cousin testified that as well ".
" I see! This is one hella of scheme, we will lose more if we jump into it however If you come up with a way to minimize damages on our side I'll think about it ".
Soo-Hyun smiled and handed her a USB,
" See it for yourself ".
