"I've kept my own end if the deal, aren't you going to keep yours?" Krystal asked Jonathan as she entered his office to hand him his files. "I can't believe you wanted to fire your current secretary because of me." She huffed.
Jonathan smiled sweetly at her before replying, "don't flatter yourself, I would never fire Vincent. Do you know how much easier my life got when he was in charge? Why would I choose a loud mouthed, irritable college dropout with an enormous sense if justice over a calm,humble guy with a college degree?" He asked all the while keeping a sweet smile on his face.
Krystal scowled at him, not a lot of people knew this but behind his facade of righteous and kind, Jonathan was the most calculating and sly person she'd ever met. He was the type of person that would plan your death and destruction, or hate a person so much he could explode but still keep a sincere smile on his face in front of his enemy. And that honestly scared her, but at least for now he was being honest. And she never did anything to get in his bad books right?
"How reassuring." She smiled back. "So, are you going to leave me hanging?" She asked.
"You know the cafe across the street right?" She nodded. "I'll meet you there in fifteen minutes. I'll explain everything okay?"
"Fine, I'll be waiting for you then, since I'm an under qualified brat with nothing to do." She smiled sarcastically.
He nodded at her, after a few minutes he had covered some reasonable grounds with his work he decided to finally go meet her. Walking off the elevator he nodded at the people that greeted him until one person walked past him and caught his attention. There was nothing special or particular about the person but he had seen those shoes somewhere. Sandals, where had he- no way! It was Jessie Marin!
Turning around quickly he followed after her as she walked into the elevator, but he was too late. It seemed like she was with someone, and he couldn't tell what the situation was because he couldn't see her expression through the mask. So he waited. After a while he saw her step out of the elevator again, then walk towards the toilets. Then the most surprising thing ever she ran into the men's toilet? After a while the man that followed her walked into the ladies' room to look for her, and out of curiosity he followed. But by the time he came out she was gone, she was no longer in the men's toilet either. Jonathan groaned as he bolted out of the building, searching, ugh! He should have waited.
1:45 PM.
Krystal was getting furious, was all that just a ploy to get her out if the office and to stop pestering him? If he thought that was going to work then he had another thing coming. How did fifteen minutes turn into and hour and a half? That jerk! She would teach him a lesson, but first she would order coffee and place it on his tab. Fitting for the less than gentlemanly behaviour, and she was just getting started. If she remembered correctly from the few days she worked, Jonathan was basically a caffeine addict, the owner seemed to offer only him a tab. At the time she wondered why, why a rich man that could probably buy an island wouldn't be able to pay upfront for his coffee, but now she couldn't be more pleased.
She stood on the line unconsciously fiddling with her fingers, thinking of all the things she could do to get back at the annoying man. But all those thoughts flew out of her head when she heard the voice of the woman ordering. She immediately became attentive, straining her ears as though it would help her listening. While most people recognize faces, she had a talent for voices. But she didn't want to jump into any conclusions so she tried to peep at the woman from behind the people in front of her. The woman walked past her to the table beside the window. Long legs, shapely and elegant curves, a familiar voice. Could she really be this lucky? She wondered.
She stepped away from the line and sat on the table opposite the woman, wondering how she never so much as got a glimpse of the actress when she was... well supposedly still alive and now?
Krystal almost withered when she stared in her direction, immediately she was up and basically running out if the cafe. Krystal got up immediately as well, did she figure out that Krystal knew her? Shit, she couldn't afford to lose her, she was too close. Krystal grabbed her purse as well and made a mad dash out of the cafe following the actress.
1:30 PM
Jamie walked towards his car but decided to ditch it and take a walk to clear his head. He could seem to get Lenora out of his head, well in defense he just saw her. But with the day he's had he shouldn't be thinking about her.
"Detective Anderson, how many times have I told you, you can't go after a family as powerful as the Lee's if you didn't see them commit murder and have the evidence on video and you have mere speculations?" His chief asked him.
Jamie kept his head low and refused to look into his superiors eyes in respect, "sir with a due respect, isn't that what detectives do? I believe it wasn't a coincidence that Patricia Lee's room happened to be in the list of rooms in the blindspot. We've started investigations for far less, what different this time?" He asked.
The chief scoffed, "you're not going to learn are you? Do you even realise what you're getting yourself into, going after the Lee family?"
"So I shouldn't investigate because they're powerful? Isn't that above the police? You can't really be biased as well, if even the police are biased then this country is doomed." Jamie said looking into the chief's eyes for the first time.
"And juniors are supposed to take orders from superiors without questioning them, you're relieved of your duties for the day detective Anderson. I believe a break would do you some good." The chief informed him.
Jamie's jaw dropped in shock, he has not even started doing anything and he was fired? Or rather suspended, he didn't even argue he just bowed his head and left.
Unconsciously some how he ended up where Lenora was doing her report on the accident scene. Outrighly accusing the government for being lax in care of the city, since this was the second accident that happened in just a mere two days. This was why he fell in love with her, her confidence and bravery. The fact that she was brutally honest and refuses to bow to authority, it made him feel a little better knowing someone else was fighting for good, even if she wasn't doing it intentionally. No, Lenora would never do the right thing intentionally or maybe that's what she wanted people to think.
Soon enough the report was done and she sighted him, he smiled and waved at her only realising she wasn't looking at him when she didn't respond. She was looking behind him, he turned around to see what grabbed her attention, the woman in the brown bob? What was so special? He looked back at Lenora to make sure that was what she was looking at. Before he could say or ask anything, she started to move and judging by her frantic mannerisms she was panicked. Jamie looked back at Lenora who's eyes were following the woman, he pushed his way through the crowds as quickly as he could and she finally noticed him.
"Jamie, quick that's was Jessie Marin!" She snapped.
