Treachery Affair

It has been a couple of weeks since Harley started working in Richmond’s restaurant, and she never gave him any reason to suspect her. The young lady has been doing her best to convey any useful message she could get her hands on, over to Jay. The camera she implanted in his office has given her clues. Of course, she had known some of his movements.

It was Saturday and because she complained of being tired, Richmond asked her to stay back at home while he go to work alone. That morning, he had dropped by as usual, to say ‘hi’ to her before heading to work. After he was gone, she picked up her phone and started searching through his file. She was able to hack his phone in just a few seconds days ago, and she now got access to all his information, and also to the people he calls.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Scrolling through the files, she read the text message that was sent to him a couple of days ago, and according to the message, it was sent from a new cop who was sent down to help him in the search for Jay, and according to what she read in the text, it happened that the person would be meeting up with him in the evening that same day. Now she understood why he had insisted that she stayed back at home.

Letting out a sigh, she closed her eyes briefly getting frustrated with the whole thing already. She couldn’t wait to get done with everything and get out of this hell of a place where she has been kept like she was some piece of trash. She scrolled through her phone and once she saw Jay’s number, she dialed it and waited patiently for him to pick it up.

“Speak up,” His deep arrogant voice rang through the phone as soon as he picked up, and a scoff tore through her throat. As much as she wanted to yell at him and tell him how arrogant he was, she knew she had no time to waste, so she just went straight to the point.

“Richmond is meeting up with the cop tonight at the Chinese restaurant downtown by 8pm on the dot. Make sure to send some men there to check the place out,” She said and without waiting to hear what he would say next, she ended the call and rolled her eyes. She sighed deeply, seeing the picture of Samir on the screen of her phone, looking as handsome as always with his perfect smile. She had missed him so much and couldn’t wait to see him again. It was just for a couple of weeks, and they’ll get to see again. As much as she wanted to call him, remembering what he told her a couple of days ago, that she should focus on what she was here for.

“See you soon,” She said, smiling at the picture.

Meanwhile, Richmond couldn’t help the smiles that keeps popping up on his face as the thought of Harley filled his mind. He felt charmed by her, though he knew he shouldn’t be doing this, he knew he shouldn’t be trusting her, but then he couldn’t stop the chemistry that was trying to pull him to her. He had never grown attached to any woman all his life, nobody ever pulled his attention like this particular one was doing now, and no one had ever made his heart beat faster like this one was doing to him. As much as he wants to stay focused, he couldn’t bring himself to do it. Even if he wanted to doubt her, seeing the innocent smile on her face, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

After driving for what seemed like forever, he finally stopped in front of his restaurant and hopped out of his car before striding to the entrance door. Stepping into the restaurant, his workers greeted him. He smiled at them as usual and started off to his office. Stepping into his office, he groaned tiredly as he threw himself on his seat and stared into space. A smile laced up his lips unknowingly and slowly, he found himself giggling like he was losing his mind. Of course, she was driving him to the edge of craziness.

Closing his eyes, her image flashed through his mind and he sighed.

“I think I’m losing my mind,” He mumbled, sitting upright. He reached out to his desktop and switched it on. Wondering how come he has a desktop and such a standardized office in a restaurant? Of course, his restaurant is a very big and successful one. He has many influenced men, coming to patronize him. Also, companies are ordering food online, which he delivers to them at their doorsteps, so you won’t be surprised anymore, right?

Different messages keep popping up on the screen of his desktop, some were from customers demanding food to be delivered to their houses, some were from companies and all that. Having expected that, he sighed briefly and picked up his telephone then clicked some numbers and dialed it while waiting patiently for the person to pick up. After a few seconds, someone picked up the call.

“I’m sending you the orders of Valencia group of company, and the other people that ordered too. You have to make sure that it’s delivered to them, right away,” He said and with that, he ended the call and dropped the phone before turning his attention to the desktop. He sent a message to someone and after a few minutes, he got a reply that the order has been made and was already on its way to the receiver’s place.

After he was done, he sighed deeply. His mind drifted to the camera he had set in Harley’s room, and he sighed deeply. He didn’t want to invade her privacy anymore, but then he felt himself missing her and so much want to see her. Letting out a sigh, he opened the laptop laying on the desk and switched it on. He waited patiently for it to load and after what seemed like forever, Harley popped on the screen and his mouth dropped open at the sight and the sound he beheld. That was the beautiful voice of Harley, singing awesomely…
