Mother"..Leon called out.

"Save whatever it is you're about to say. I'm not willing to listen to you. You've already disrespected me enough by bringing that girl in here.

"Where did you learn to talk this much? Peter asked. Both leo and Lisa turned swiftly looking at Peter chewing an apple.

"It's 9:30am and there's no food on the table. Can somebody explain what is going on in this mansion. Are we bankrupt or something?

Lisa parted her mouth about to say something but peter stopped her in midway. " I don't need you explanations Lisa. I can see you find it very interesting to taunt your son's wife.

"Leo follow me to my study we need to talk...

"Peter"

"Don't Lisa ,Peter blurted harshly.

"And what is that? Leo asked with a confused look on his face.

"Our branch there is loosing money. I think the managers there are draining the company of it's resources. The situation in the country is not helping as well.

Alicia changed into a yellow sleeveless round neck flay dress resting slightly above her knee. She walked to the locker that contains her jewelry. she opened it with a card that was placed beside it.

She stared fascinated at the now open locker full of jewelries worth a fortune. she selected a diamond bracelet and wore it around her wrist.

She walked further to where her shoes were arranged, she chose a white kitten heel.

The dress was okay so as the jewelry and foot wear. I walked into the bedroom and sat behind the dressing mirror. I applied a light make up and rolled my hair into curls. As I was working on my hair. I could feel someone's intense gaze on me. I turned swiftly to meet leo standing right beside the door.

Leo's P.O.V

Dad is really annoying and frustrating. I feel bad for Alicia. Mom was soo hard on her. Urgh whatever...

Leo opened the door quietly. He scanned the room and finally his eyes fell on her. It was the most beautiful sight displayed in front of him. He's come across tones of beauties but Alicia's own was one of a kind.

She looked lost sitting in front of the mirror while she rolled her hair in curls. Her relaxed face was soo adorable in his sight. she suddenly stopped making her hair turned swiftly. Oo my God she caught staring again.
