The next day Lena went to pick up the rings especially early. She planned to deliver it to Eva at lunch. She came to work a bit later than usual. Lena came up to her office holding the box with the rings. Diane quickly greeted Lena.
"CEO Yang is in your office waiting for you."
"Me? This early in the morning... did he say why?"
"No."
Lena nodded and handed Diane the rings. She did not want to give them to Andy because she wanted to give to Eva instead. She walked into her office.
"Andy!" Lena went and give the big man a small hug. "Why are you here so early?"
"Why are you here so late?"
Lena laughed and went to sit on her chair. "What"s up? I can see that something is bothering you."
"You can tell?" Of course, Lena had been with him for so long to know so many little things about him. "I have a favor to ask."
"Anything for you."
Andy took out a small bag that had the white pill he discovered yesterday. He handed it over to Lena.
"Can you get that tested for me? Break down the elements for me."
Lena took the bag and looked at it. It was the pill from before. Lena kept her straight face not to give away that she knew exactly what this pill was. How did Andy get this? Or did he get it from Eva? "Sure. I can rush the results for you."
Andy sat down on the chair across from Lena and stared to her eyes. "When did you start doubting me when we were engaged?"
"I always doubted you." Lena smiled. "But I think most of it was just my stupid tantrum. I had always trusted you, that you would never cheat on me even though you never loved me."
Lena could see that Andy was probably doubting Eva now. Her heart enlightened a bit. She did not even need to do anything and Andy was smart enough to open his eyes and see the suspicious activities himself. Good for him.
Lena continued. "And you did never technically cheated on me. You fell in love with someone else of course but it"s not like you were seeing her behind my back. People can fall out of love, and find new love, but you respected our relations.h.i.+p. You only approached her after the engagement was canceled. Andy, you"re a good and faithful man. And you deserve someone who would do the same to you."
"You"ve really changed a lot." Andy complimented Lena.
"I am guessing you are in the stage of a relations.h.i.+p where you are doubting your significant other? I think it"s fine to question them but just confront that person. Look at our relations.h.i.+p in the past. I may not have given you the details of my troublemaking, but I admit that I did something bad. There should be no lying in a relations.h.i.+p. If she said that she can"t tell you, that is better than a straight lie to your face. Remember Andy, she will be the one you will marry."
That last sentence struck Andy. She would be the woman he would marry, there should be no lies in their relations.h.i.+p. Andy stood up and thanked Lena.
"Wait." Lena called out. "Do you need help dealing with the trouble with your artist at your company?"
"You know?"
"Hazel is not really a person who can keep her mouth shut..." Lena walked up to Andy. "Deal with your relations.h.i.+p. I can give you a hand with the problem. Considered it as a wedding gift."
Lena went to the door and opened it for him. Andy thanked Lena again and left. Lena watched as Andy left. She smirked... Luck is always on her side huh? She was indeed a blessed child.
She walked to grabbed her phone and dialed Kris. After a few rings, he finally picked up.
"Kris?"
"Hmm?" Kris answered.
"Are you busy?"
Kris looked at the man on the floor and his right hand pointing a gun at him. "No. What do you need?"
"I need to borrow your dog?"
"My dog? I don"t have a dog."
"Oh.. wrong name. Uh... what was his name again. Oh yeah, Lay. Can I borrow him?"
"Why do you need him? He"s not that good. I can do a better job." Kris pressed his gun on the flesh of the man"s head, making sure he did not dare make a single sound.
"Naw.. Lay is the one causing trouble to Andy so he is the one I need. You just finish up your work and come back in one piece. I would not know how to dance with a person who is split into two."
Kris chuckled from the other side of the phone. "You can have him. He should always be in his normal hangout place."
"K. Good day! See you soon!" Lena hung up the phone.
Kris looked at the silenced phone and closed it. He handed it back to Keso. Kris bent down and pulled the hair of the man, so he was looking at Kris. The man"s face was heavily beaten. There were bruises and blood, gus.h.i.+ng out of his face.
"It"s your lucky day, I am in a good mood." Kris smiled.
The man let out a small breath of relief. Kris removed the gun from the man"s head and instantly shot his both of his legs without hesitation. The man screamed from the pain.
"Be thankful I shot your legs... a thief like you deserve your hands to be cut off. But I pity you... a man needs his hands." Kris left the man to bleed on the cold floor. Keso followed Kris out.
"Are you sure you want to keep him alive?" Keso asked.
"It"s fine. He should know better than to steal from me."
This was the first time that Keso had seen Kris let a man go alive. He did not question him further and opened the car door for Kris. Keso closed it and went to the driver"s seat.
"All done?" Collin asked.
"Mhm." Kris nodded. "Get in contact with Lay.. tell him that he is Lena"s dog until I come back."
"Lena"s dog?" Collin looked at Kris and then at Keso in confusion. "Oh.. ok, I"ll text him that."
