sir” the lady studied him from head to toe and she couldn’t help but hold back a flirty smile, “how may I help you sir?” “I am here to see Emma '' Adrian tried to be as polite as

shing. “I thought you were supposed to be flying in today from Australia? Isn’t your phone supposed to be on airplane mode?” “Of course, I am already at your office. I will be with you shortly” “Oh” the smile on her face widened, “office romance?” “I will be with you shortly baby” he answered and ended the call while the grin continued to linger, this was the energy she needed and not the other way round. ***** As Adrian ventured out of the elevator, his eyes opened wide when he saw who was about to enter into the elevator. Wasn’t he supposed to be on a flight back from Australia? “Brother In law?” He called out and the man in front of him froze for a moment, he wasn’t expecting to see him here. “Adrian? You are here?” “Aren’t you supposed to be on a flight? Averia told me you were coming in today, you have a job here?” He was overly curious which was kind of annoying but the man in front of him had to keep his cool, he didn’t want anyone to find out yet. “Yes, i just landed” he lied, “ I have something to talk about with the owner of the property and that’s why I am here” he was lying through the skin of his teeth but it was not like the man in front of him was smart enough to understand what was going on, “why are you here by the way? Are you here to look for a job?” “No” Adrian's lips curled into a small smile, “I came to check on Emma, she works here. The second floor precisely” “Oh, I see” Lu Tan faked a surprise smile, “I didn’t know her office was located here” “Yes it is” Adrian stepped out of the elevator, “I will take my leave now and you can do your thing. I won’t keep you for long” “Sure” As Lu Tan stepped into the elevator, something came up in his mind and he immediately stopped Adrian who was already a few feet away from him. “I don’t think you should tell Averia that you saw me, I am planning to surprise her” “You can count on me, brother in law” Adrian flashed him a smile before finally disappearing from his presence. The moment he was gone, the look in his eyes changed and he pressed a button. *** The smile on Emma’s face widened when her door pushed open and he entered. He looked good as usual in his black tailored suit but something was missing from his face. The smile he always wore. “You took so long to get here” she stood up from the chair
