Chapter 12; Are you following me now ?

Canary got up in fury and kicked his desk hard to calm down.

He sat on the Office chair and put his legs crossed up on the desk. He waited for her anxiously.

Lisa came carrying her boxes with Nicky who had offered to help her.

They entered the office together when Nicky bowed before him as a sign of respect and then put the boxes down.

" Thank you Nicky.." Lisa said. Nicky walked out while the other two casual worker's carried her desk set.

After this she thanked them with a smile. Canary had remained in the same posture until all the set up was done and Lisa went to down on her chair.

Canary sighed and got off the seat. Lisa was trying to organise the few files into the drawer when she saw him come towards her and stood right before her desk.

She looked up at him, Shook her head and ignored him.

" You ! " He yelled and hit her desk with his palm hard.

" What's wrong with you ? " Lisa stood up to ask in confusion mixed with anger.

" You think that I will let you sit here peacefully ? " He asked furiously.

" What do you want from me now ?" She asked.

" Out of this company. I will give you as much money as you want." He said.

Lisa sighed in disbelief. " You are so annoying. Do you know that ?" She asked and sat again.

He put his hands on the desk and bent to her level. Lisa looked at him fiercely.

" Isn't it money that you want ?" He asked angrily.

" If you really want me to leave then give me respect first. Don't think that money can solve everything." She answered him very well after looked into her work again.

Canary cursed after this and went to his desk again. Lisa made herself busy while he watched her with his anger burning inside.

It was a round 5 when Canary picked his brief case and put on his coat to leave. When Lisa saw him she also organized her things quickly and he was at the door when she came after him.

" Hi, Are you following me now ?" He asked in fury.

" It's quiting time already. It wouldn't be nice for a worker to depart before her boss." Lisa explained to him with a sheepish smile.

"Hmm" Canary chuckled arrogantly.

" That's a good excuse." He said.

" That's a good excuse !" He said and walked back closer to her. He bent to her ear and said in a whisper. " Better stay away from me, It wouldn't look good if people saw me walking with a low class girl like you !"

After lushing out these harsh words he moved away and gazed her with an evil smile.

These words hurt Lisa so much that she felt small and belittled but all she could do was to clench her fists and if it wasn't for standing in the corridor where many people were passing she would have punched him right away.

He walked away to the Parking. Lisa sighed and decided to walk after him when she met Nicky on the way.

She smiled and went over to her. " Nicky , You are also just leaving ?" Lisa asked.

" Yes.." Nicky answered and they begun walking the together.

" Actually thank you again for helping me to carry stuff." Lisa spoke politely.

" That's nothing. I did it as a friend. How was your work with him by the way ?" Nicky questioned friendly with a thin smile.

" It was fair. He couldn't stop teasing me you know.. but good enough this day has ended." Lisa just said when she received a call.

On checking it was Lucy.

" Mrs Anderson …" she said.

" Did Canary chase you away again ?" Lucy asked.

" No Ma'am. I don't think that he will do it again." Lisa muttered.

" Let me hope so. Endeavor to follow him wherever he goes. Remember your job is to spy and tell me whatever he does." Lucy spoke.

" Okay Ma'am..Thank you." Lisa ended the call after this and Nicky was staring at her.

" Is that Madam Lucy !" Nicky asked with lack of belief.

" Yes…Nicky I am sorry. It's getting late. I have to go." She said and after he left.

Lisa went to the parking and Canary had just left by the time she reached so she didn't have to follow him. After lol she had more work to do as Canary had assigned her to.

That evening Canary actually drove to the hospital and found Lucy there.

" Mom, You are also here ?" He asked.

" Yes. I missed him a lot." Lucy said as she extended for him to sit.

" You were just here in the morning. You can go back home. Since tomorrow is a weekend, I can watch Dad the whole night." Canary said.

" No need to stay for the night. I have nurses taking care of him already." Lucy said.

" So, How about tomorrow?" He asked.

" Sure, We shall come and spend the whole day with him." Lucy agreed with a smile.

***

That Saturday Morning Lisa got up early and prepared herself to go and make the research Leo asked her to. She didn't have a laptop so she had to go to one of the Internet cafe and Library.

Canary also got up early and went for a short morning jogging. He was in a black hoody and black shorts with white sneakers and he listened to music while he jogged slowly.

He went up to the park where he stopped and sat down on one of the benches. There were quite a number of people mostly parents playing with their kids and couples too that sat in pairs.

Canary was still looking around when he saw a bottle of water held before him in space by a hand. When he turned to look up it was Camilla.

" Camilla…?" He called.

She looked so beautiful and sexy in a white cap, A black vest and black tight pants with red sneakers.

She smiled and sat down besides him.

" How did you get here ?" Canary asked.

" This park is just near my house. It's where I met your father the day he decided to employ me." She said

" Wow, I didn't know that your house is just a distance from min." He said.
