You did well

In the stall

Just when she was about to sit on a chair inside, Cynthia held her hand and stopped her from sitting. Valerie eyed her for an explanation. Cynthia just shook her head and looked at Victor to explain, this made Valerie furious. Can't they take her Side for even once!

"Yeah, yeah I know I shouldn't have done that. He was a suspect of the mission, I need to befriend him. Would you please wait till I eat something, then continue with your lecture." She said in a very tired and frustrated tone. They couldn't even let her eat peacefully,what a cruel brother. She wanted to go home badly.

But unexpectedly to her, they both just gave a gentle smile while Victor patted her shoulders and said "you did well Vale, completing the mission is never above you." He took a pause and looked back. "But I am afraid you still would not be able to eat." even Cynthia gave her an apologetic smile and said " I wish we could help but.."

But before she could further elaborate, the sound of steps halted her, and she turned back. The other two also looked in that direction, and there it was, the manager Henry, the owner of the stall and two other people God knows who they were.

"I am sorry miss but we are not taking more clients today. The stall is about to be closed." said the owner of the stall to them

 She was stunned to hear that, and looked around. People were coming and sitting freely, giving orders and eating food. It didn't look like the stall was about to be closed. But faces of victor and Cynthia told her rest of the story.

'LEONARDO SMITH I WILL KILL YOU' are you a tyrant or what? You were narcissistic, fraud, and trickster but now.

"Fine, We will go." She said through gritted teeth but went out gracefully, like she hasn't been sent out, but came by herself. Her class and grace can't be avoided.

Ellie, Adam and even Leo who were still waiting out for seeing her angry face or stomping her foot were stunned when they saw her mesmerising smile and graceful walk. tired of her bun, she let her hair loose which increased her beauty and for a moment Leo was lost.

"I think you really know how to use your powers boss. since I can't eat here, I think I should go home. Afterall office hours are finished" she said with a very beautiful smile but inside she was speaking profanities. ',just you wait, one day I will take you to the highest peak and throw you from there.'

"Who said you can't eat here. In fact we were waiting for you, so that we could eat together. After all I am a very kind boss." he said with a cool smirk like he just helped her in having a good dinner.

"It's so kind of you boss, But we don't want to disturb you anymore." But just when she was about to turn.

"I didn't ask for your opinion, Miss Edmonds, Did I? or are you forgetting about the report?" He said still with a smirk and started moving without turning because he was sure she would follow him, and she did.

"Are you coming with me or going home.?" She asked the couple who was looking at her in a confused manner.

"Of course you can join us. The more the merrier. come let's go" replied Adam dragging fuming Ellie, with him and trying to keep her mouth shut.

Although they were confused. they still decided to follow her as she was looking pale and tired. Thankfully the dinner went well. Rest of the time no one spoke anything annoying. Ellie was controlled by Adam, while Leo was mostly busy on the phone. Victor and Cynthia although sat with Valerie from time to time they kept looking at Leo as if trying to assess something.

But just when they thought everything was fine, a loud shriek was heard.It broke the trance of everyone, and they came out from their thoughts.

Ellie was crying holding her feet while Valerie just stood there blinking her eyes. "Brother Leo, Brother Leo she.. she stood over my feet with full force. she wanted to break my bones, so that i would have a fracture."

Hearing this Valerie rolled her eyes."Miss Ellie, I am wearing shoes, not high heels and seriously fracture on foot?"

It's too much, Since no one has seen anything they can't give their opinion. So they just looked at both of them with confusion.

"But brother Leo she knowingly did this." Said sobbing Ellie right now she was again looking very pitiful.

"And how do you know that?" she asked, folding her hands and Arching a brow amused.

"I ... I saw you." She said pointing at her.

"Of course you did. I asked you to move aside so that I can go to the restroom. So I just moved who knows you would take so much time to move. I was too tired to concentrate." said Valerie shrugging her shoulders.

The truth was, she had seen her stretching a leg in an attempt to trip her, so she knowingly used her powers and put all her pressure on a single point and pressed her with full force 'I am already too pissed to handle you gently'
