Chapter 54 - 54: ckmail


    The next day, during breakfast, Danie skipped it and waited for Selena at the parking lot.


    She didn''t have enough sleepst night, something she was used too but,st night was the longest night she had since she left theboratory, she kept thinking of Evan''s motive and if all the kisses they shared and the date they''d been were fake.


    She sighed, turned to look at the door and found Selena walking next to her two uncles.


    She acted normally, face t even though inside she was tense, she was never like this. She used to be tough and take everything easy but right now, with her feeling conflicted and her inability to read Evan''s mind, Danie felt as if her life and heart are in danger.


    She sat on the motorcycle and put on her helmet, avoiding to meet Selena''s eyes.


    "Quick bratty, we arete," Danie said even though they still have 30 minutes before Selena''s ss will start.


    Just like an obedient kid, Selena hopped on to the motorcycle and wrapped her arms around Danie''s waist.


    Before Danie could start the motorcycle, Selena pokes her back, "Uncle asked me earlier if you sleep wellst night."


    Danie looked at Selena, perplexed as she replied, "yes."


    Selena shrugged and turned to her uncle Evan who was about to get into the car.


    "Uncle Evan, Danie said she slept wellst night," Selena yelled.


    Evan halted and gave a nod, he looked at the woman who has been avoiding him sincest night, during dinner and even breakfast, she didn''t even greet him while she greeted everyone with a smile including their guard dogs.


    Evan hesitated whether to talk to Danie now. When he finally decided and walked towards the motorcycle, Danie suddenly drove away.


    Evan rose an eyebrow, lips pressed together.


    His senses came back when he felt an elbow poking his arm, he looked at his side and found Matthew in a suit, a grin on his lip, "Lovers quarrel?" Matthew said and winked at him.


    Evan didn''t respond to his tease, instead, he lowered his eyes to Matthew''s suit and gave him a lopsided grin, "why are you wearing a suit? Your only going to clean the toilet," then Evan turned and get into the car, he closed the door before Matthew could even protest.


    Matthew scoffed with disbelief, head shaking, heughed, "look at this Evan! Aish!" he scratches his head, soon his eyes narrowed as he remembered how Danie avoided Evan.


    Right at that moment, Matthew wickedlyugh, he rose an eyebrow as he took out his phone, "someone''s going to be jelly today!" he squealed with his lips widening in a smile.


    He dialed Danie''s number and when the voicemail activated he spoke, "E, remember the y you did at the university? I have all the pictures and the embarrassing videos so if you don''t want it to b leaked, go to Evan''s office and help me with my work." He pressed the end button and waved a hand to signal one of the guards to bring him his car.


    -


    After Danie dropped Selena to her ssroom, she noticed the voicemail on her phone. Seeing the familiar number, Danie''s expression closed up.


    "Hey bratty, I will be back," she whispered.


    Selena looked at her with piercing eyes, who wouldn''t, Danie adjusted her time and set an early rm, instead of waking up eight, she woke up 6 six in the morning, ironed her uniform even though they have maids to do it.


    Danie left the hallway, went straight outside the building next to her motorcycle.


    She sighed, took out a cigarette and lit it up.


    Inhaling the smoke down her throat, Danie felt an intense feeling, her mind wonders how can she avoid Evan given that they are living together.


    Her phone buzzed, she took it out of her Jeans pocket and looked at the screen.


    It was a message from Matthew.


    She opened it and the cigarettes in her hand almost fell to the ground when she opened the file he sent.


    It was her, braided blonde long hair, huge sses and the colorful braces on her teeth.


    Her face paled in shock, if Matthew had this photo it means he also has the video of her in the university where she yed in the theater as an Ugly Duckling Princess.


    Jaw gnashing with anger, Danie opened the voicemail he sent.


    Danie shut her eyes, took a couple of deep sighed and told herself that Matthew''s life doesn''t worth jail time.


    She turned the fire off of the cigarettes with her shoes and shoved the cigarette butt in the trash bin next to her.


    Selena''s ss will end in five hours, giving her enough time to travel and help Matthew with his work.


    -


    Meanwhile, in the Su Financial Bank Building.


    Evan rxed on the couch with his friend seated opposite him.


    Glen Hei, he owned a Law firm and currently the legal representative of Su Bank.


    His square-shaped face, ck small eyes, sharp nose like it was curved by a famous sculpture and his grey suit, one could guess that he''s either a businessman or awyer.


    He''s two years older than Evan, and they have been friends since they were kids.


    Same school, same environment and same status, Glen Hei, Ken Chu, and Evan Su were close like brothers.


    As Glen stared at his friend Evan with mind wandering somewhere else, his hands picked up the paper on the table.


    Roman Lee.


    The man who owned 30 percent of the Bank, thirteen years ago, the Su Financial bank had a set back causing for the previous head of the bank, Evan''s father to sell some shares, in result, the Su owned seventy percent of the bank while the other 30 was owned by the man Roman Lee.


    Evan had never met Roman, but he heard a lot of story about him, mostly on how much money he takes and put in the bank, his father and brother had never asked the man where did he get the money, they just let Mr. Lee bring and take money as long as it won''t bring danger to the bank''s name.


    Evan looked at Glen, he grabbed the paper from his hand and handed him another folder.


    "Are you meeting Ken today?" Evan queried.


    Glen shook his head, "he said he wille here and meet us for lunch."


    --


    Danie parked her motorcycle in front of her apartment''s building. She got down and proceeded to her apartment.


    She went straight to her bedroom, opened the closet, took some man''s clothing and a short wig.


    With a rush, she squeezed her b.o.o.b.s to make it t, put on the clothes and sat in front of the mirror in her bedroom and contoured her face with makeup.


    Bushy eyebrows, thick lips and few wrinkles on each side of her eyes and lips, Danie transformed into a middle-aged man.


    She smiled, making her wrinkles to go deeper.


    She dressed this way for one reason, and that is to scare Matthew.


    Back in London, Matthew used to date a woman who was a mistress of the mayor in their city. When the mayor found out about Matthew and his mistress rtionship, he sent a few hooligans to beat up Matthew and since then, every time Matthew sees the mayor, he always runs like a mouse.
