Caroline was
was ready to head back home after a day of busy toil when she received a call. It was Troy, asking her to head to the offers of the Luther Group to pick up Brian.
Brian had been instrumental in delivering Ressula Pharmaceuticals from certain death and feeling thankful for that, she said yes.
Her lips twisted into a wry grin as she depressed the accelerator and her car vroomed into the distance.
She reached the entrances of the group and was walking through the doors when the receptionist at the front desk stopped here. “How can we help you. Miss Green“”
Tm here to see Mr. Luther, Caroline replied frankly.
The front–desk receptionist had recognized Caroline but it did not take long for her to notice that Caroline’s name wasn’t on Brian’s schedule. “My apologies. Miss Green, said the receptionist, I’m afraid that Mr. Luther doesn’t not take impromptu meetings”
Caroline was flabbergasted beyond words.
(I’m just looking for my own husband. How complicated is this going to get?!]
Owing to the surreptitious nature of her marriage to Brian, Caroline decided that there was no need to inconvenience the receptionist She fished our her phone and was about to place a call to Brian when a voice called her name.

Caroline looked up, her finger stopping before she hit the “Call” b
button. It was the cousin of I
Meeting her here was certainly the last thing she expected.
Irene strutted closer with an air of disdain. This is the HQ of the Luther Group, Caroline Green. Not your tiny little kingdom called Ressu. You’d be wise to leave your arrogance outside before coming in”
Arrogance. That was the first thing she labeled Caroline with and the latter’s brows wrinkled into a frown at the insolent remark.
She could still recall what a materialistic woman Irene has always been, after all the advantages she had been picking off her.
And the reason Caroline had allowed all the slights to slide was only because of her c
close friendship with Doris
Seeing how Irene knew Caroline and listening to their conversation, the receptionist said, “Mr. Luther is not the average Tom, Dick, and Harry out in the streets, Miss Green. If you want a publicity stunt, this is the last place you should ever come to.”

had barely said anything at all. All the while, she had been standing there, post listening to the women sprawking like a bunch of chucking hem until the security personnel of the offices appeared.
trem triomphantly gave her orders to the security officers, “Guards, toss this woman out at once!
ng her true identity, the security guards did as they were told.
They marched up to Caroline and spoke as a–matter–of–factly. Mease vacate these premises, Miss Green”
Everyone in the foyers stood still, petrified to the very spots they were at as they waited to watch Caroline Green being escorted out of the headquarters complex.
A tacitum Caroline merely smiled at the gloating Irene Drake. She waved the guards away. “Let me make a call to Mr. Luther and see if he’s more inclined to sack you or, as you say, toss the out.”
Are you suffering from a delusion or some sort screeched Irene Drake crossly at her authority being undermined, “There’s no way you have Mr Luther’s number.”
Group was not at all involved in the fiasco
As far as everyone was concerned, Caroline had only just come back from abroad and the Luther Group was not at surrounding Ressua Pharmaceuticals,
For this reason, everyone believed that this was only just one of Caroline’s facades.
“Are you suffering from some sort of pathological need to show–off, Miss Green? barked the lead receptionist again. “Do you seriously think Mr. Luther would be interested in the likes of you!”
But one of the receptionists, a junior one, was an admirer of Caroline for her great work in salvaging Ressua Pharmaceuticals and resurrecting it all by herself
“But Miss Green has said nothing yet, Elena” she voiced out on Caroline’s behalf, “Are you sure it’s right to do this?”
She had been here long enough to learn that most of her colleagues were all snobs whose penchant to turn up their proverbial noses at anyone relatively modest and humble was a virtual public knowledge. To say nothing of the fact that she was certain that Caroline Green did not come alone and unprepared
“A newbie like you should know better than to stick your nose into places you don’t belong, snapped Elena sharply.
The gruff and annoyed Caroline Green cast her gaze on the woman who had tried to defend her. The naive and innocent face blazed with a patch of pink at her superior’s stern admonishment.
Caroline panned her gaze back to Irene. “Look closely. Watch and learn how I call Brian Luther.”
frene Drake could find no convincing reason why she should believe that statement. Tim telling you all, this is the trollop who’s here to seduce Mr. Luther she began announcing to anyone in the foyer who would listen.
Amidst the ruckus she was causing, the call connected and Caroline grimaced into the phone, “I need a hand, Brian. I’m here to meet you for lunch. but your staff is calling me a trollup.”
Brian had only just finished what was a busy morning when hearing her voice made his heart flutter. But the sentiment was hardly reflected when he heard what was going on. It made him mad.
“Wait there, I’ll send Ralph down to get you.”
Ralph was just beside him, dutifully attending to Brian and he did not know who it was.
Brian placed down his phone and stretched. “Caroline’s downstairs. She’s in trouble”
