"Wait!" Camilla suddenly called out to the leaving duo.
"What?"
"I want to be your girlfriend!" she panted from the courage it took to say those words.
And luckily, Kyle turned around and approached her again.
He wore the same playful smile he had when he wanted to mock her. "I don't date naive and innocent cry babies like you."
Although his words angered her, what could she do.
He was the devil! The devil didn't care about others.
"I need your help."
"Which help.... I don't do favors without having anything in return."
"I know that... Your the devil." Camilla rolled her eyes at the man.
And the playful smile on his face disappeared. "What do you mean by that!"
"No... Nothing." she swallowed,"I need you help with something. To teach me = to stop being a cry baby." Although admitting those words hurt, that was exactly what she wanted help with.
The first step of changing a bad habit was to acknowledge it first. "To toughen up just like you....For revenge."
"Oh Cryilla, you can't be like me. You don't want to be like me. I don't want to baby sit you. As for revenge. I like that part. But you have to sort that issue out yourself...So, which ever idea you have of being my girlfriend, forget about it."
Having said that, Kyle left. Leaving his words embedded into Camilla's skull.
"Don't want to be like you?" Camilla turned around scratching her head.
"What does he mean by that?"
And just then, a familiar voice spoke behind her. "Don't mind him..."
Turning around, she was surprised by Tailor's sudden appearance.
A while ago, she could clearly see him with Kyle leaving.
And now, Kyle was even no where to be seen in the underground parking.
Just this angelic friendly body guard of his.
"He's always like that.... Anyway I can give you his number." he flashed his friendly smile at her.
"Really?"
"Yes..."
But as he was about to speak again, Kyle's cold voice echoed through the place. "Don't you dare Tailor. Get you ass here right now!"
"Coming!" he yelled back. "He is such a kill joy!"
His voice came out as low as a whisper when he said those words.
He pulled out a contact card from his pocket and handed it over to Camilla. Before turning to leave.
Once again, the sound of a roaring engine filled the silent atmosphere in the parking a black Jeep drove away.
"Kyle Gene...Huh?" with one last glance at the card, she put it in her pocket with a wide grin on her face.
_0_
"You dropped something." Alicia bent down to pick the white card that fell out Camilla's pocket.
She read the contents on the card with one glance before handing it over to Camilla.
"Kyle Gene huh? That name sounds familiar. Where have I heard that name before?" she had trouble trying to remember the name.
So she couldn't help but ask Camilla. "Where did you get that card from?"
Taking off her worn out flat shoes, Camilla fell into the couch she always sleeps in.
And stared at her reflection on the tv's black screen.
"Oh that, yeah. Some guy gave it to me." her gaze lazily fixed in the world behind the black screen as her mind wandered off. With the scene that happened in the underground parking replaying in her head. The way Lorene screamed to her lungs, soothing her troubled heart.
"Why? Don't tell me he is hitting on you! And you took his intentions lightly." Alicia face palmed at Camilla's foolishness, "Oh come on Camilla. You can't trust anyone. Your personality will put you in a jumbled mess."
"He isn't hitting on me... Rather, it's the other way round." with that lazy reply, Camilla picked up the remote and turned on the TV.
"..."
What the hell has happened to her? She's acting weird today. Alicia thought to herself as she stared at Camilla who looked like she wasn't part of this world anymore.
"And the first slot for most eligible bachelor goes to Dr. Trevor Gene!"
Alicia turned her gaze to the television when she heard those words escape its speakers.
And a breathtakingly handsome man was displayed on the television.
His lips thin and moist. Soft and pink.
His glorious long lashes flattered over his black deep eyes that looked like they could see through people's souls.
His handsome could be called beauty.
When Camilla stared at the display, she couldn't help but gape at the man's appearance.
His facial features could only match up to Kyle's. And in her list of beautiful creatures, he ranked at the very top along with Kyle.
Both Kyle and him had the same unfathomable and dangerous aura.
Not even a single emotion was present in their deep black eyes.
The only difference between them was that Kyle didn't care about the consequences of his actions.
While Trevor on the other side, made calculated actions and would take into consideration how it would affect both him and those around.
Hearing that they had the same surname was already shocking.
And now, their similar breathtaking appearance had simply knocked the ration of think out her brain.
If anyone was to tell her that Trevor Gene and Kyle Gene weren't related, she wouldn't believe it.
And not just them, Kyle's other two friends or bodyguards too. She wasn't sure.
But one things certain, they all came from the same place.
"Yes.... Gene! I knew I saw that name in one of those business magazines. So is that related to Trevor Gene?"
Camilla, who had her mouth open in shock replied, "I don't know. But if someone were to tell me they weren't, I wouldn't believe them."
A playful smile formed on Alicia's face as she stared the shocked Camilla;. "If they are related, I can only imagine how handsome Kyle is. I don't blame you if you like him."
Switching gazes from the TV to Alicia, Camilla frowned. "I don't like him. I just need his help with something. It's completely professional. "
Alicia spat out the water she was drinking in shock. "Professional my foot." placing down the empty glass on the table, she continued. "Very soon. I can see my self as your bridesmaid in 2 months time. Escorting you to your husband to be."
"..." Camilla blinked her eyes at her speculating friend.
"Whatever! Anyway I had Kyle speak about Vilatia. Maybe that's their home country. Or village. Though I don't remember any place on the map name like that."
Alicia's brow raised and she stroke her chin after that statement. "Vilatia....?" her gaze fell on the ceiling as she dove in thought. "Vi-la-ti-a. VILA-TIA. VILAA"
Camilla's face lit up when she saw Alicia dive into thought, "You know that place?"
"Nope....not a clue. I was doing that so I can sound smart." Alicia bit her bottom lip.
"..."
"Anyway... Which kind of help do you want from him?"
"Oh... Just a little revenge."
"Oooo.... My friend here's getting devious behind my back." Alicia said playfully, "Well, it's about time."
"Yeah about time." Camilla smirked. "Can I borrow your phone?"
Having been handed the phone, Camilla dialed the number on the card and placed it on loud speaker.
She anxiously waited as the call went through. And after a second, it vibrated on her hand signaling her that Kyle had answered.
Before she could say a greeting, Kyle's cold voice escaped the speakers. "What?"
What a harsh way to start a call! Alicia thought to herself.
"Hello, this is...."
"shhhh! I know who you are? That bastard gave you my number yet I told him not to. Whatever it is you want to speak with me. I am not interested, okay."
Enraged by the way the man on the other side of the line was treating Camilla, Alicia grabbed the phone out of her hand and spoke on her behalf. Angrily!
" Hey mister! Kyle Gene who ever you are! You think that because your related to some rich business man, you can talk to my friend like that. She on you. Didn't you learn manners growing up? That's no way to treat a lady!" she burst into a round of argument. Before hanging up the call, not waiting for Kyle to reply.
"What you do that for?" Camilla raised one brow in confusion. She had expected the hash greeting. But Alicia over reacted.
"You can't let some no body talk to you like that. You gotta show them your not some push over. Let them know your someone out of their reach." Alicia puffed.
Okay! I wish you knew. That man is the devil! Camilla recalled the way Lorene acted but in the end, she still got dragged away like a bag of rubbish.
Acting arrogant won't work on the guy.

"Sorry Lil T. You've disappointed me yet again. Unfortunately, you are of no use to me anymore."
"No Saia, forgive me I..." Before the fat mafia who was hang up with one hand by the bald mafia lord could finish his plea, his neck was snapped.
His hands that had struggled priying open the mafia lord's strong grip around his neck, fell loose as they lost all energy in them. And his legs that kick above the ground twitched.
His eyes had rolled to the back of his head and he dropped to the ground lifeless!
As the mafia king let go of his neck.
Picking up a handkerchief from his pocket, he wiped the blood on his hand then through it on the lifeless body.
"Clean up that mess!" he said. A strange hue of red appearing in his eyes.
"And Find out where that receptionist lives. No one messes with my minions but me. Looks like I have to settle this stupid problem myself."
