CHAPTER 70: FORGIVE US (2).

But what's with the news of you been the original heir to Devan corporation?" Nars asked and Sue agreed with his question.

"Well, my dad was the person who started the company but he died mysteriously and my uncle took over because I was still young and unable to take over but when I got to a legal age he refused to handover but instead he said I was ungrateful instead" Eve said.

"That is preposterous!" Sue shouted gaining the attention of other employees eating in the cafeteria. She was told by Eve and Nars to calm down, "sorry" Sue said covering her mouth while mouthing sorry to everyone for disturbing.

"How can they say that to you!" Sue shouted but this time her voice was as low as a whisper.

"I don't know but it's obvious they used that as an excuse to not give back the company to me" Eve said.

"Is boss Charles aware of all this?" Sue asked.

"Yes, he is" Eve said nodding her head positively.

"And what did he say?" Nars asked. Him and Sue are very curious to know their boss view of the matter.

"He said he would help me get revenge or so" Eve said excitedly.

"That is so kind and romantic of him to help his wife in her revenge" Sue said with bright eyes.

"Ok guys I have to go the lunch break is over already" Eve said standing up from her seat.

"Mm" Sue and Nars said and also stood up to leave.

Eve and Charlie were engrossed in their work when Eve phone rang and distracted them. Eve looks at the caller and is surprised by the ID of the caller.

It is her uncle George Anderson!

Charlie saw her conflicted face and asked who was that and Eve said it was her uncle.

"Well do you want to pick it or not?" Charlie asked.

"I will, so I will know why my uncle who hasn't called me for years is calling me now" Eve said non - chalantly.

"Hello" Eve said.

"Hello Eve" George said.

"I want to tell you something" George said.

"What is it?" Eve asked.

"Let us talk about it over dinner at Sunset restaurant by 7pm" George said skeptical if she would agree or not.

Eve was suspicious of her uncle but agreed to it anyway, "okay see you there" and she cuts the call.

"What did he say?" Charlie asked.

"Nothing much, just that he said he wanted to tell me something" Eve said.

"Aren't you afraid that they would have another plan against you" Charlie asked obviously worried and this warmed Eve's heart.

"Why would I be afraid when I have a capable husband to protect me" Eve said smiling flirtatiously.

Charlie's heart warmed also and he laughed and said, "I will assign secret bodyguards for you" 

"Thanks" Eve said and she blew him a flying kiss.
