Come in"
Diora heard Morana's voice from inside the office, she opened the door and entered.
Morana dropped the pen in her hand as if she's been expecting Diora to show up.
"You are quite late" She smirked.
"Never knew you were this childish," Diora said.
"Childish? You think I intentionally scored you wrongly?" Morana asked.
"You don't have to pretend or act, are you scared of me?" Diora asked and Morana frowned.
"Scared of who? You?" She chuckled, then burst into laughter.
"Then come clean, miss Morana"
Morana stood up.
"With this attitude of yours? You won't go far" she said.
"What's wrong with my attitude?" Diora raised her brows.
"I hate your sharp mouth..."
"What does that has to do with the fact that you fucking manipulated my test score and gave me zero?!" Diora screamed.
Okay, this is like her first time using the 'F' word. She could tell she was already angry.
"So what?" Morana asked calmly.
"So what are you going to do about it? Do you have proof?"
"I wouldn't have gotten all the answers wrong, I'm not that dumb. I'm not stupid like you, I don't fuck around or chase after men around. I mean, I know exactly what I'm doing,my brain functions well,so how the hell would I get zero?" Diora snapped and Morana raised her hand to slap her.
She was breathing heavily, but it was anger burning inside her.
"Touch me and see what happens, and I'm going to give you till tomorrow to correct the mistake you made. I want to see my score or expect to see that person in school tomorrow, I'm talking about my husband, and sorry,I pity your job" Diora threatened and stormed out of the office angrily.
"Hey hey,easy easy" Someone said as she bumped into them.
"Oh sorry" Diora looked up.
"Angelo" she called.
"Yeah that's me," He smiled.
"Sorry about that"
"It's okay, are you in a hurry? Is everything okay?" Angelo asked.
Diora sighed.
"It should be," She muttered.
They began walking together.
"So I was wondering, can I have your contact? We are friends too, right?" Angelo said.
Diora looked at him and nodded.
"Sure"
He immediately smiled and handed his phone to her.
They saved each other's contact and continued walking.
"I think it's gonna rain tonight again" Angelo muttered,looking at the sky.
"I actually love rainy days" Diora said and he looked at her.
"Then we have something in common, I love rain too" he said and they both smiled.
"Your smile is pretty," Angelo mumbled.
"Oh. Thanks" Diora said softly.
They got to the parking lots and Angela waved at her.
"You are still here?"
"Yeah, we shifted the lunch date till tomorrow, because of you" She smiled
"Thank you"
"So, how was it? What did she say?" Angela asked curiously.
"I have to wait till tomorrow," Diora replied.
"Thank God" Angela sighed and kissed her cheek.
"Bye babe, later" she waved.
Diora saw Angelo staring at her and she smiled at him, which he returned before leaving with Angela.
"Let's go. I'm starving right now" She told Martins.
"Wanna stop somewhere to eat? I'm hungry too" Martins said.
"Cool, let's eat together"
Diora took her phone immediately he started driving, she texted Kyros.
*I HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL YOU TONIGHT, PLEASE DON'T BE LATE*
She sighed after sending the message.
Still can't believe Morana could be so low to that extent, zero? That's too harsh, but thinking about it, she was quite bold back there.
She smiled at herself.
'You did so well' she praised herself inwardly.
*
KYROS' COMPANY*
Prince Alfred stepped down from the car and looked around, the door was closed by the bodyguard.
"Whoa, I didn't know this place was so big, wow" he smiled and nodded.
"This way,your highness" They directed and he followed.
As they entered inside, the staff fell into total awe, seeing the crown prince by this time of the day was never part of the plan.
Alfred being the cheerful and social bird, took his precious time to say hello to them as he walked, he could feel the stares hitting his back till he hid away inside the elevator.
"Exhausting" He chuckled.
Finally,they got to the CEO's floor.
"Your highness,you're welcome" Dilara immediately stood up from her seat.
"Hi," Alfred smiled.
"Kyros is in?" He asked.
"Yes, please come with me"
Dilara bowed and led the way in silence till they entered Kyros office.
"Hey dude" Alfred grinned.
Dilara bowed and went out.
Kyros raised his brows.
"How come I didn't know you were coming?" He asked and left his desk.
"It's a surprise. But I got surprised instead, this place is fucking huge and fine" Alfred said,walking toward the window.
"Thanks for coming," Kyros said.
Alfred faced him.
"Lunch together? Or you've had lunch?" He asked.
Kyros checked the time and shook his head.
"Good, I heard there's a good restaurant close to this place, I miss the country food, I'm checking out every restaurant now" Alfred said.
"I guess you are not busy like I thought you would be," Kyros said.
"I'm home to take a rest from the work I've done all these years, I need the rest,like a mad lot." Alfred muttered.
Kyros nodded.
"I know, enjoy," He said.
"We should plan a lot of outings together also, don't be boring. How is your wife coping with you?" Alfred scoffed.
"What are you talking about?" Kyros scoffed.
"What do you mean by that question, you didn't have fun back then. I always force you, you were too focused on making money, even though your family was rich,now you've achieved what you wanted, don't you think it's time to have fun? You're twenty six and should have fun before thirty" Alfred groaned.
"Why thirty?" Kyros asked.
"I planned to get married when I'm thirty,I guess you might plan to have kids too, since you are married already" Alfred replied.
"I don't want kids," Kyros said.
"Why? Does your wife know about this?" Alfred scoffed.
"It's my decision," Kyros muttered.
"Give me a reason" Alfred said as they walked out of the office.
Kyros said nothing.
"You can't just conclude now, remember how you always told me you don't wanna get married? And now? You had nine wives...."
Kyros frowned.
"I told you, I don't consider them wives, we weren't even married. You think just a ring is enough to show off that we were married?" He scoffed.
"So what? You thought you would fall in love with them?" Alfred chuckled.
"No, after the first,second,third,I came to realize they just wanted that title, as my wife, and the money," Kyros muttered.
"Seriously dude? What do you expect? Why else would those women, ladies,get obsessed with you? That's the reality dude, Ladies these days want your money, and maybe because of your face and sexy body. Those things aren't love" Alfred said.
"I know, maybe that's why I've never fallen in love with anyone yet also" Kyros rolled his eyes.
