Lots of Information

"It's been a while Auntie, you look fine. Did you meet Georgina already?" Zairus asked.

"Of course, that ungrateful child didn't change. She's still good at getting on my nerves,"

"How come you hated your own daughter? Until now, I can't still find a reason for you to hate her."

"It's a long history, because of that child... Because she was born... Let's not talk about it. Just thinking about her made my day ruined."

"Then let's talk about business," they heard a rustling of paper. Both glance at them but saw a brown envelope on the table.

"It's the document you want to get from Mr. Watson, like what you want. He didn't notice that the document change."

She scan the document and saw the signature of Mr. Watson. It's supposed to be a project partnership of the two companies but on the other document says an agreement of transferring his shares on Alvarez Corporation under her name.

"Good job Zairus, your father is lucky to have a wise man like you."

"Don't flatter me, Auntie."

"Anyway, I have a job for you regarding the Javier family business." Georgina flinch on what she said. "Pursue those two to sell their company to us. I don't care what kind of way you did, but I want their company to be taken down as soon as possible. I want to teach the brat a lesson for threatening me," she said. It made Georgina clench her fist.

"You've been into the small business of Javier's family, Auntie. What's with them? I thought Gina and her ex already broke up?"

"Broke up? I don't just intend to break them up but severe their relationship,"

"You want Gina to live a life of pain without no one to lean on? You're cruel."

Georgina was about to stand up and face the two, but Jin stop her. A tear fall down to her eyes while processing all of their conversation. She clench her fist tight, almost left a mark.

"She shouldn't be born from the start. One look at her face makes me remember of my horrible past."

"I'll inform you about the process. I really have an appointment to attend, Auntie. Sorry,"

"It's alright. Call me if you need money."

"Okay, let's see each other again. Bye."

They wait for the two to leave the coffee shop before Georgina and Jin came back to the car, where Giovanni is waiting for the news. But until now, her tears didn't stop from falling. A long silence came between the three, but no one interfere with it.

"What happened?"

"It seems she's planning on something beside Van..." Jin look straight at him. "You should inform your parents not to talk with the man before. They are planning to take down your family business."

"Did she start?"

"I think she's been plotting it for a long time,"

"Your family is really cruel, Gia." He said and chuckles, but she wipes her tears away and looks somewhere. "I'll talk to my parents so, the two of you follow her mother."

After saying those words, he left the car and called a cab. They wait for him to leave first before following her mother's car. Silence lingers between them, but at least the heavy atmosphere died down. On their way, Jin can't stop worrying about Georgina so, he glance to her towards the rear mirror but she's looking outside with those sad faces.

"Do you want me to send you home? Are you tired?" He asked.

"No. Follow her, I'm fine."

"Well, I don't want to meddle with your family affair, but I don't understand why your mother hates you a lot."

She chuckles. "I don't know the answer either. All I know is I hate her the way she hates me. Never in my entire existence, I felt we have a mother."

The driving took almost twenty minutes before her mother's car stops in front of the familiar company building. She saw her mother went inside while calling someone on the phone. A confuse look escape into her face, asking herself since when her mother and uncle has been in touch. The one who owns this company building is her Uncle Rex, he's the half brother of her father. Both have the same mother but different father and Zairus Serrano, the one inside the coffee shop before is his son.

Even before, she never seen the two interact, even in family gatherings way back in the States. She feels something off here. Before her mother went inside, she look on her surroundings first.

"Gina, do you know this place?"

"It's Uncle Rex company,"

"Are they close?"

"No. They never talk or see each other beside at family gatherings,"

"You follow her inside first. I'll find a place to park my car."

"O-okay,"

She goes outside the car first and waits for him to leave before she could walk inside the company. Most of the employees here known her, since she's close with the CEO. They've greet each other on the way. She stop in front of the elevator to go up where her uncle's office but as soon as the door open, his secretary came out.

"Georgina, you're here to visit Mr. Serrano?" She asked.

"Is he there? It's been a long time. I want to surprise him." She lied and give a smile.

"He's in the office. I'm on an errand so, I can't escort you but the CEO is available by this time."

"Thank you for the information."

"You're always welcome."

She went inside the elevator and went to the top floor where the CEO Office. As soon as the elevator door opens, she walks towards his Office but for a reason she felt uneasy. Heavy steps with a palpitate heart. Those feelings made her more nervous until she reach the door.

It's slightly open, seems there's someone beside her uncle. She's about to knock on the door but heard a familiar voice. Without even knowing, she glimpse of who's inside but the moment she saw it clear, both eyes widen in shock. Eyes quiver while her hands move to cover her mouth to stop herself from making noise. She steps back in surprise.

"R-Rex, wait... Someone might see us..."

"Don't worry, Coleen, I told my secretary to do something for me. She'll be gone for a while."

It's her evil witch mother and Uncle Rex flirting inside the office. Her Uncle sits on the swivel chair while the witch is sitting on his lap, wrap her arms around his nape. She feels disgusted by the scene.

"Did you talk with Zairus?"

"Our son grows up as an incredible child, not a useless brat like the other,"

'Our son?' She stepped back again while breathing keeps getting heavy in shock at what the witch said. Zairus Serrano is only a year younger than her, but has been in a business field since last year.

"Of course, you take care of him a lot."

"Did the brat came here again?"

"No. It's been a month since the last time."

"You've been too hard on her. Are you not worried? She's still your child."

"Child? I've never accepted her as mine,"

"If my brother hears those words..."

"Who cares? The old man will die in vain soon,"

"Then shall we get married if that happens?"

The next thing happened, made her stomach upset. She steps back again while tears keep falling down as the two kiss each other. All this time, none of them know what she's plotting, but seems like it's worse than what they expect. Georgina run towards the elevator again and go back to the ground floor. This is not what she hopes to see, it's worst. It's not only about her or the witch or Giovanni, this includes both Warren and her father. Lies. It grows as soon as they try to dig up any further. She's scared just to think what would her father will react.

All this time, even after she left a long time and come back again, her father accepted the witch without doubt or hesitation. Despite of it, she couldn't believe her uncle Rex will lie to them too. It's too much of information. Her brain is about to explode.

As soon as the elevator door open, she saw the shock face of Jin instead of talking; she drags him outside the company building again.

"What's wrong Gina? Why are you crying? Did your mother caught you?"

"L-let's leave this place,"

"H-huh?"

"L-let's leave, please."

"O-okay, I'll get the car so, wait for me here." She nods her head as Jin walks towards the parking lot.

It took only a few seconds before a car stop in front of her. Without a word, she came into the passenger seat.

In the middle of driving, Georgina still crying like a child inside the car. Though Jin doesn't know what's going on and couldn't even ask because of the situation, he knows something happened. He never seen Georgina cry like this.

"Where do you want to go?"

Georgina was about to speak, but her phone rings. She got it and saw Mr. Stealer's name. After what happened last night, she didn't expect him to call, but now he's calling again.

"H-hello," she almost choked in tears.

"Hon, are you crying? Where are you?"

The moment she heard his voice, she burst out crying again.

"Hon? What happened?"

"I-I... I-I..."

"I want to meet you. Let's talk. Where are you? I'll pick you up?"

No words came out of her mouth though she want to say a word. Jin noticed it and get the phone to her to answer the call instead.

"Hello. This is Jin Carson. I'm with Georgina today and seems she wants to meet you. I'm about to bring her home so, tell me your location."

"Oh, you're her ex's friend. I'm in Fleur de lis Cafe near the train station. I'll wait for you here and let her calm down, at least."

"O-okay," Jin end the call and give it back to her. "You should calm down, Gina."

"S-sorry,"
