She was brought back to the present, when her phone rang."h.e.l.lo? may I know who"s calling!" the number is not registered in her phone
"h.e.l.lo, Carah Zander here. Look I don"t mean to pressure you. but I really need your answer to my proposition. Asap." he really didn"t mean that but he needs a reason to be able to call her just to hear her voice.
"But you are pressuring me and you know that! " she a.s.serted. "OK meet me in 30 minutes." she told him the location. before addressing the mechanic."When will my car be available? Was every thing settled by my company?"
"Yes ma"am everything settled you"ll have it in a week"s time, you"ll not report what we discovered to the police? he ask.
" No need I"ll deal with it personally, Thanks Jimbo." she will have her men investigate on this. Her men consists of men and women who works with her giving and extracting information needed in her cases that allow her to get valuable evidences, they work with her father before, now she have their loyalty.
When she arrived in the restaurant Zander was already waiting for her.
"I already have the liberty of ordering food, I hope my choices was to your liking. If not feel free to order your preferences." He made sure he ordered her favorites.
"It"s OK I"m not picky on food. Let"s discuss while we"re waiting." she said to get the discussion over and done with in no time.
"So this is what we"re going to do, since I cannot work for your company, you know conflict if interest since I am prosecuting you cousin in behalf of my client. I am sending someone on my behalf. he or she will infiltrate your company and you Will not have the benefit of knowing their ident.i.ty. they will be my spy and they have to report to me only. In turn I will report to you of whatever we may dig out." she said.
"Why is there a secrecy on their ident.i.ty? Am I not trusted in my own company? I am the one hiring you and the same goes with them."Zander complained.
"Sorry I am just protecting my men, don"t worry they are the best, but I don"t want to compromise their safety. I don"t want it any other way CEO Chen. Take it or leave it." Unknown to Zander, Carah have long have her men nfiltrated the company and they are making slowly but sure progress and she doesn"t want him to know.
"Ok, I"ll take it, on one condition you will report to me directly of any development." in this way he also have reasons to see or contact her.
"Very well then, that"s settled and I"m warning you I charge highly. " she raise her brow challenging him.
He smiled and said "money is not a problem just get the job done."
"No problem. " she said. He couldn"t help but admire her self a.s.suredness and the way she handled things, gone was the naive and innocent girl he married who he can easily manipulate. Their order arrived and they ate in silence but Zander keep stealing glances when Carah was unaware.

"Yehey!!! so this calls for a reward . how about going to the theme park on Sunday and we"ll eat out. how about it princess?"
"Yes!!! yes!!! granny mama will take out on Sunday." her daughter dances and calling out to her grandmother.
As she crosses the living room she couldn"t help but notice the box on the corner to the kitchen. "Mom what is this package contains?" she asked.
"Oh your uncle send it belongs to you father, I was thinking of asking you of placing it in your study since it contains paper, recordings and some thing you use in the computer from his cases and his studies.You may find some useful things in there. I told your uncle to send your father"s belongings, since they will be occupying our house while theirs is under renovation."
"OK no problem mom, go ahead. have someone to help you . by the looks of it , it is heavy." hmmmm that box looks mysterious she thought.
