6 Her devilish side.

As soon as Kyra was informed that the boy she saved is out of danger, she went back to the hotel where she is temporarily staying.

Although she bought a house, the renovation is still going on, so for the time being she is staying in the presidential suite of the hotel her second brother owns.

"So, you came across a pervert, huh?" her fourth brother, Ryan laughed.

Now, she is on a video call with her fourth brother and she is telling him what all has happened today but he intervened in the middle when Kyra told him how a handsome man was staring at her.

"Don't call him that," Kyra said with slightly pursed lips.

Her voice was like a sad child's voice that Ryan burst out laughing. "Why so?" he asked, holding her laughter.

"Because I stared at him too not once but twice", Kyra said with a pout, making Ryan laugh even harder. His eyes almost teared up with tears and his stomach started hurting.

"Kyra became a pervert!?" Another voice came from the other side and soon a girl of the same age as Kyra appeared on the screen.

"Sofi?" Kyra spoke, already shaking her head in regret. There will be no end to the teasing now. She didn't know that her best friend was listening to her conversation. Otherwise, she wouldn't have spoken about this.

"Baby Kyra, Is he that handsome, tell me! Did you at last take a liking to someone. I want to know, is it love at first sight!!!" Sofia asked in her excited tone, starting her drama and like usual, she started exaggerating.

"What are you doing in my brother's room? Isn't it early morning there? Did you both stay in the same room? Oh God! Did I disturb you both?Did I spoil my niece/nephew's making process? " Kyra asked, imitating Sofia's drama queen style.

"God, Ky!! Just because we are in the same room doesn't mean we are together!" Sofia exclaimed.

"And, in the same way, just because I stared at someone's…*cough* body doesn't mean I fell for him!" Kyra exclaimed too.

Sofia grunted her teeth, realizing that she fell in Kyra's trap.

"Fine! But be careful there, okay." Sofia said her face filled with concern.

She is one of the few who have witnessed Kyra's emotional plight when she first arrived at Oxford.

It still squeezes her heart whenever she remembers her best friend's miserable past.

"This is the hundredth time I am listening to those words today, Sofi. And, yes, I will take care of myself." Kyra sighed.

"We all are worried, Ky. You went to that place all alone and we are worried what will happen to you now," Sofia voiced her concern.

"You know I can handle this, right, Sofi?" Kyra asked, for which Sofia nodded her head. Of course she knows Kyra's accomplishments but what worries her is the emotional scars that still make Kyra anxious and scared. Some things never fade...

Although her friend is strong now, her past was that sad and pathetic and it still haunts her. . People say that the past doesn't matter but as someone whose own past is tainted, she is aware of the brutal truth that it matters to the person itself.

Kyra might be acting all strong and indifferent but, who knows what might happen if she comes across person's of her past??

"Leave about these, Sofi. Tell me how our little mission went today", Kyra asked, her voice suddenly morphed into business like.

Sofia snickered.

"You can expect them to sell the whole company to us anytime this week. The sales went down, the profits dropped to negative and in today's meeting when they saw these statistics, the stakeholders asked her to step down", she gave a whole report.

Kyra smiled, her lips curved into a devilish smirk.

"Buy the company no matter what the price is." she told Sofia, her best friend and business partner.

"May I know why you are buying that company all of a sudden? Is that because the CEO humiliated me on social media? Wow, my little sis and my girlfriend really love me'" Ryan said, smiling gleefully but soon whimpered when Sofia stomped on his foot.

"I am not your girlfriend, idiot!" She muttered.

"Oh yeah! You will soon be," he winked getting near but ran away when Sofia lifted her leg to kick him.

Kyra smiled at their interaction and then continued, "This company was the first and huge contributor of Blue Star shipments, a bridge my biological mother wants to use to expand her business to Europe. I can't let her into our domain can I?", she asked.

"But you had no problem when you let her Banking Company establish its branches here. Why now, all of a sudden?" Ryan asked.

Kyra laughed, sending chills across his spine. His cute sister could be very scary sometimes just like his twin brother, Ian. She learnt it from him!

"Bro, that banking company was supposed to be mine, remember? She is helping me by reducing my work, so how can I be cold enough to reject her generosity?" Kyra asked, her tone made Sofia and Ryan gulp. It's not that scary but when it comes out from her mouth, in her melodious and alluring tone, it's hard to miss the devilment in her voice.

But they of course understood where it was coming from. Kyra's grandmother, who was a mysterious woman herself, hadn't even informed Kyra that she was leaving a billions worth company on her name.
