Complicated love

"So we going back now?" Lenny asked with a funny smile on her face. She looked at the dorection Ivy went. A while back, when she heard her best friend 'coaxing' the woman to reveal her uneasiness, she almost squirmed in satisfaction. Hell, how she wished the savageness to continue! That was insufficient to her yearning soul.

Camellia nodded and then together with Lenny, they walked for a while until they reached the area where a minivan was already waiting for them. It seemed that their timing was perfect as a tourist guide spotted the two of them and signaled with his hands that visiting time was over.

"Whew, now that I recalled about what you've done, I wish you'd become a little more savage. But, why did you targeted Anna too, was she also related to that incident?" Lenny who was now sitting next to Camellia looked at her curiously.

"She played quite an important role in their scheme," Camellia answered with her eyes closed.

"I knew it!" Lenny exclaimed only to realize that she had attracted some glares from the other tourists. 'Sorry,' she mumbled and flashed a smile to a group of tourists who were still looking in her direction.

"Camey, how come Anna was involved?" she asked, not forgetting to low the volume of her voice.

"Hmm, let just say she toyed with my trust of her," Camellia replied and slowly revealed her pair of brown eyes. Thinking back, Anna was the only confidant she had after her grandfather died. Who knew, even that was taken from her. Taken by the same person she trusted the most.

"But, don't you know how to read..." Lenny touched her head to finish the rest of her sentence. "This kind of gift, at crucial time it could be useless,"

Lenny, upon listening to Camellia's explanation couldn't help but frown. "That was disappointing!" she slammed her fist onto her palm.

Then, all of a sudden she gasped and her eyes slowly met Camellia's probing look. "I was indeed disappointed," the other smirked as she saw the guilty look on Lenny's face.

"Hehe, sorry. So, what's the next step? What can I do to help?" Lenny apologized and changed the topic as soon as she can. Her whole body reaction seemed to show that she was really eager to be involved in Camellia's path of revenge.

Camellia chuckled as she stared at Lenny who was clenching her fists with her lips pursed together. She noticed that the minivan has reached the parking area and immediately pulled Lenny out of the minivan as soon as its door was opened.

"You'll know soon. Today is enough. I've seen what I need to see. I've shown what I want to show," Camellia said as she walked towards her car. Her voice carried a deeper meaning. She knew that what she did today might trigger the residence to enforce their full power in investigating her relationship with 'Ava Willow'. Yet, she felt at ease. This was the first step she should have done a long time ago.

Bringing back the 'dead' Ava into the Cains' life!

Except, she was too meticulous. Being overly calculative and complicated to get her revenge when there was a simpler way of doing things.

Lenny who was following behind was giggling. She was seen walking excitedly but the moment she entered Camellia's car she began to yawn. "Arghh, now I feel so damn tired. Camey, drive faster. I need my bed, my pillow, my blanket," Lenny complained as she leaned on the passenger seat in a rough manner. Almost slamming her whole body in. Her eyes closed as soon as her head found its resting pillar.

Camellia frowned. "You look terrific with your panda eyes," she teased but the concern was still seen on her pair of beautiful eyes. She knew Lenny really well and know that she must have reached her body limit. Now, it looked like fatigue took over the lively character she had displayed earlier.

"Haha...not funny Miss Ava," Lenny's return induced a light laugh from Camellia.

"Take some nap. I let you know when we reach your place," she said. When she heard no reply, she looked to her left and saw that Lenny was already in her dreamland. She smiled before switching her focus on driving.

"Boss, I've got a new intel!"

Charlie who was talking on a phone looked at his assistant with a glare that made the other party almost fall due to the sudden need of restraining his movement.

"Ugh, sorry boss, but this is about Miss Ava," Zachary explained hurriedly. He wiped the invisible sweat on his forehead. He knew he was rash this time, entering his boss's office without knocking. Moreover, he clearly disturbed the conversation that was taking place between his boss and the other party that was on the phone.

Charlie frowned and nodded once before his attention focused on the phone in his left hand. "Miss Yang, I have matters to attend to. Next time, please make an appointment if you have anything to discuss and bring along your proposal. If you called me again, I'm afraid you'll achieve nothing,"

Zachary remained on the same spot as he waited for his boss to finish his phone call. However, when he heard his boss talking he let out an unnoticeable sigh.

Someone must have tried to get 'intimate' with his boss again! Zachary instantly burnt a virtual incense inside his mind. Wishing the woman to have a good time with the way his boss would treat her the next time they'd meet. That, if he gave her the chance to do so. Another sigh left his mouth when suddenly, he felt a pat on his shoulder. He instantly looked up and saw his boss's face was an inch away!

"Boss, god almighty, I almost kissed you!" Zachary patted his chest. He moved a few steps backward, creating a safe distance between him and his boss.

Charlie frowned again and sneered. This assistant of his knew how to make fun of everything! Thankfully, he was numb to it.

"What's the news?" he asked as he sat on the edge of his working desk. Zachary swallowed his saliva as he saw the lack of patience in his boss' manner. The tapping finger and the slightly weird sitting position. He knew his boss was in a not so good mood.

"Cindy finally saw Miss Ava at the residence. She is real!"

"Cindy? Who's that?" Charlie showed a confused expression. He wondered where did this Cindy woman come from.

"Boss, she's the eye I've planted in the Willow residence. Don't you remember?" Zachary explained with a proud look. Still, Charlie's face unchanged.

"Boss, this...never mind, what's important is that all these while we only heard about the unending jobs Miss Ava was attending to and that actually makes me doubt her existence. Now, it seemed that this time she has appeared for real. Isn't this good news boss? Your future wife is real!"

Smack!

"Boss..." Zachary excited expressions dimmed as a hand hit his forehead. It wasn't painful but the shock made him felt pain. He could only whine after knowing that the culprit was his boss. But, why was he hit?

"This is what you called new intel? Who said Ava was fake? Are you trying to anger me?" Charlie looked at his assistant and let the poor man swallowed his saliva again and again.

"But boss, why don't you meet her ASAP, now that she was confirmed to be present at the residence?" Zachary suggested. He was afraid that his boss might miss the chance to meet his beloved woman again.

Now, he was just trying to be the cupid for his boss's love life!

"No, if she wants to meet at the event then let's be it. I've done everything she asked me too, to do another is nothing. We'll meet at the event," Charlie spoke and waved his hand.

Zachary could only nod when he saw the signal that asked him to leave.

'Haiz, being in love is too complicated,' he thought as he walked out of the office.
