Secretary Found

"Where're you?"

I needed not further of her talk, the next was a track on her location. It felt so real, after the long wait my father was finally gonna be proven innocent and those in guilts would be behind bars, that was a sure.

Corporative Bullet got the car racing to the limits I ordered him on. There was no chance to give to who ever that was behind everything to catch on to her, she was the key to the puzzles of the Black family.

“Alice” the voice squeezed out catching my attention to the dark corner. The building wasn't one to recommend anyone to shelter in , not even that of my enemy,well Steve might just get a recommendation from me.

There wasn't a roof to the building As it was half way built for two or more floors. The lines cracked it ways through the walls and pillars, chewing the foundation was probably years of rain or unkept construction.

With steps close by I caught a clear glimpse of her done in curls that was pulled in straight and dyed in red, odd. As she wasn't the type to go in for such styles, from the years worked under my dad I came to understand but of her character. She was the slow rated girl with little to say , much like an introvert that seek nothing with others. But her appearance that day made me question all I knew about her.

Her body was coated in a slim dress that barely kiss her knees with heel that she found quite easy to rule.

No hating, but she used to feel more comfy on flats and short dresses?. The last Samantha and I took her out on a shopping day, yes Samantha and I used to work on projects ,more of a compelled team works but we still pulled it off everytime .

She was in refute to have any short dress above her lower knee, she said not to be comfortable in them.

In a flat sigh I skipped the thoughts of her short changes in personalities to the main subject.

“ Who was behind dads' attack and who framed him?“

“Not now sweet heart. First you assured me my security and provides me with a well hidden house with no one to haunt me down “ she stayed. Her dull innocent tone was gone for wild and experience, it all felt off. Did she changed in such short period or was she pretending to be a dull person?.

“What're you waiting on, let go” she yelled out, her heels took chase for the car nob that froze on her touch. Bullet pulled her reach from the car, he sent a look at me to grant order of what to do. He was damn serious with his job, the last Dave measured him being a wrestler before joining the security team. There was denial to that, his whole figure was an evidence to every word.

“Let her in” his hand released her two tiny arms that were folded behind her back .

“ Ass hole” Sarah cursed before storming in the car, Bullet giving no reaction to her word,opened the door for my entrance.

“ You went missing the day that got the accident, why?“ I turned a sore eyes on her, granting no familiar face. “You better start talking or I won't render you any aid” I scolded out, those words I meant each by each. Even if she was the key to solving the puzzles I would have trash her out the second she kept glueing her lips.

“ I was paid to leave , since I witnessed everything they didn't want me foiling their plans.“

“And you did just that?, You left when you know my father's innocent “ my anger couldn't contain in the firm tone, she was so selfish or perhaps I was. But she knew who the real culprits were yet kept….

“Hey princess keep you judgement tone for yourself. You weren't the one kept on close eyes, my life was in threat, who am I kidding it still is. Call me selfish all you want but anyone in my place would have chose the easy way out that's to accept the deal and flee”

“Who are they?, the ones that paid you to leave and shut your mouth. Who are they Sarah?“ her finger tickled on the slim side on her phone, her pinky finger drew out the flat sim slate and snatched it out. In confusion I watched her bite the sim in pieces then sent it for the rugs.

My eyes scrolled at her quick pull of a button phone from the depth of her chest, then crept a wary smile at me. “Don't be so shock, life changes every second. The Sarah you knew was just a cover of this Sarah ”

That detail was needed to straighten my thoughts. It insane how people fake an identity, guess you never know who they're till the cover start coming off.

“I'll only tell you their names after you find me a secure house. Till then let have zero conversation of this topic”

“ Thanks again Peter” I combed in. When violet assured to have found a secure place I had no idea it belonged to Peter , the sole person I was crossing red dots on. It was a last minute call and was sure she did her best.

My new husband, whom I was sure would have such facilities but dare not inform him , there was just little trust between us and let be frank the guy was a complete stranger to me.

“ Like I said , you need not thank me. Am glad to be of help to you” he said stalking his gaze on Sarah who's hands couldn't rest off the vases on the stools.

“Hmm..mmm” I grunted out with hard look on Sarah to stalk out her fingers from the vases. They looked quite valuable and wanted nothing to do with refund cost from her spikey nails crawling through the thin lines laid on the vase.

“ So, who's she again?“

“ Sarah, am Sarah coal the runaway secretary of her father that holds all the secret “ her big mouth went blabbing everything, oh fuck.

Don't even ask, my crossed and twice squinted eyes were all rejected by her, as she folded her fingers on Peter's, fluttering her lashes with tight flinch when his fingers came in contact with hers. Oh…great.

“ She's the lady that you've been looking for?“ his sneaked out his fingers from her grasp then storm to my reach. My eyes went honking the second the brain grasp of his statement. “How did you know that?“ my eyes followed his feet that sprunt to the bar like and stole a bottle from it shelf, fished out the wooden seal and ordered himself a portion.

“Peter how the hell did you know of her ?,or that she's the one I was looking for when I didn't tell you anything of such?“

“ I searched on you, like I said before I only came back because of you. I know everything about you Alice, how your father got the embezzlement case and was sued, you losing you Black assets and how the secretary is the only one that can testify your dad's innocence. I know everything Alice, I also know you shouldn't trust Dave” his voice cold on his name. That was expected, they were rival in business sure a beef of two or more was a must.

My brain at time was too focus on the secretary to take notice of the pieces lying around.

“ Peter am grateful for your help but I think my personal issues are your limits “ I said stabbing my fingers on my temples. The morning was chaotic and the noon was nothing less.

“ Alice am being serious, you know nothing about him, trust he isn't who he present himself to be. He's dangerous, he's responsible for your d….“ His words were shut my phone tune, in haste the fingers scrolled through the green.

“Yes”

“ Beth's caught stealing and the police are here to arrest her”
