Chapter 61 - 60: He's busy

After Daniella dropped Selena at her school, she decided to visit Claire again.

She didn't have time to talk to the doctor because of the party but, she needs to tell someone what she found out about Evan or else her brain will explode.

She stopped in front of Claire's house, parked her motorcycle and entered it as if she owned it.

She found the doctor in the kitchen, Claire is living alone, she does the cleaning and cooking in her house, there's no maid and if she needs help, she would ask for Robert's and Scott's assistance.

Daniella sat on the table, while Claire was busy making herself a smoothie.

"How's last night?" Daniella asked, half grinning.

Claire groaned, pour the smoothies in the glass and drink it in half.

"We finished late, anyway what are you doing here?"

Daniella sighed, decided to tell the truth to Claire

"Remember when I said that I couldn't read Evan?"

Claire who was about to finish her smoothies suddenly dropped her glass, it fell on the table and all of the liquid spilled on the wooden table

"you never told me that," Claire responded with shock.

Daniella shrugged, "well I am telling you now."

Claire angrily smashed both hands on the table, "what is wrong with you Daniella! Why didn't you tell me this before?"

Like a teenager in front of her fuming mother, Daniella bit her lips.

"Well, I am still trying to figure it out. I mean, it was his father who took my mom's corpse so I want to know-"

"DANIELLA!" Claire yelled her name, lifted a hand and tugged her ears repeatedly.

"You!" Claire let her ear go, took a step back and gently massages her back neck.

"You are going to kill me!" Claire continued yelling at Daniella.

"Calm down Claire, it's not that bad," Daniella got down from the table, walked closer to Claire and repeatedly tapped her shoulders.

"I found a way to know his memory," she said, consoling Claire.

Claire sighed in relief, nodded and sat on the chair.

She accepted the water Daniella got from the refrigerator, moved it close to her lips and before drinking, she asked, "what way?"

"I need to kiss him so-" Daniella's body immediately moved backward when Claire suddenly blew the water from her mouth.

"Claire!" she exclaimed.

The doctor clenched the glass in her hand, eyes swelling with anger threw a piercing look at Daniella.

"Daniella, you need to leave that family. I am having a bad feeling about this!"

Claire's heart pounded like she had run a marathon, with weak knees, she sat back on her chair.

Daniella sighed, eyes gloom realizing how much Claire cares for her.

"I am too Claire, I am scared but I need to stay."

She held Claire's hand and buried her face on it.

"something is wrong with that family. Evan's father took my mom's corpse, and Kierry rescuing me the same night. And worse, I just found out that Dr. Lee has a part of Su Financial Bank, and then Evan, I couldn't read him."

She shut her eyes, Evan's sleeping face this morning flashed in her mind.

" Evan's brother and Kierry are dead, I can't get information out of Evan without kissing him. Dr. Lee, I can't replace him anywhere. Evan's father, he hasn't come back home since he took my mother's corpse."

She paused and lifted her face, meeting Claire's perplexed eyes.

"If I replace out that Su has something to do with my family's death, I" her eyes darkened, heart crushed by the thought of destroying Evan.

"Why don't you leave now? We can fake your death, and then you can investigate it."

Daniella shook her head, giving Claire a soothing and delicate smile despite the unutterable pressure in her mind.

"I will stay Claire, I need to know the truth about my mom there must be a reason why Evan's father took her."

With the eyes of a helpless mother, Claire nodded with understanding.

"How are you going to handle Evan?" she asked.

Daniella plucked her lips, relaxed her body on the chair, both arms lay on the table.

A strange feeling rose in her chest, she has never felt so chaotic than now, her goal was supposed to be simple, get the information and leave once the contract ended but…

"what else can I do Claire?" she got up, grabbed a dry cloth from the kitchen closet and wiped the spilled smoothies on the table, "I can only get his memory by kissing him so I guess I will have to visit my dentist today to have my mouth check."

She winked at Claire looking at her with doubt.

"Why do I get a feeling that you are enjoying this?" Claire asked, slightly raising an eyebrow.

"because I do Claire. He's really warm and somehow his lips reminded me of the boy I kissed at the hospital."

Daniella absentmindedly beamed, she washed the cloth and folded it in half.

"I will be going Claire, I have a baby to pick up and deliver to Lyle."

--

At Evan's office.

Evan came to the office with a dark face, blood boiling after his heated argument with his grandfather.

A knock on the door sounded, he sighed and yelled, "I am busy."

Behind the closed door of Evan's office, Daniella was standing with a serious face.

She wanted to see him before she goes to the orphanage to pick up the baby she will give to Lyle but Evan yelled without knowing who was behind the door.

She frowned eyes dimmed with blues.

She walked back to the elevator, pressed the button and waited for it to open.

Meanwhile, Evan's secretary looked at Daniella with pity, she had seen a lot of women who tried to seduce her boss, models who tried to tied up their name to him so that people would think they are dating him but after years of working with him, no woman stays longer than 5 minutes in her boss office.

And the expression she saw at Daniella's face was just like the face of the previous women who were thrown out of Evan's office.

The secretary shook her head, pressed the intercom to inform her boss that his niece's sitter was the one who knocked on his door.

"Mr. Su,"

"What?" there was a fit of anger strained in her boss's voice as he responded.

"I have the list of companies with dues that haven't been paid in months."

"Bring it to me," her boss replied.

The secretary got up, entered his office and lay the doc.u.ments on the table.

Evan didn't even bother to look up, his eyes stayed on the doc.u.ments in his hands.

"Mr. Su," hearing his secretary voice, Evan shut his eyes.

He raised his head and looked at her with irritation.

"what? I am busy!"

"Well, Ms. Chen was here a while ago and she left after you said that you are busy."

Pen on Evan's hands dropped the table, lips gradually parting with surprise.

"where is she?"

"She's waiting for the elev-" the secretary paused to see her boss rushing like a tornado out of the office.

Evan immediately grabbed Daniella's wrist, stopping her from entering the elevator.

"Hey," he said, catching his breath.

Daniella looked at him, "I thought you are busy,"

He shook his head, "no, I am not."

Daniella blinked, watched the beads of sweat on his forehead slowly sliding down his cheek.

"can you help me?" she asked.

"Sure, let's go," without waiting for the reason, Evan pulled Daniella's body inside the elevator.

He glanced at his side with the employee looking at him, "get out and take the next elevator," he said coldly.

With no other option, the employee got off of the elevator.

Evan closed the door, pressed the ground floor button and pinned Daniella on the wall.

Without a warning, he lowered his face and was about to kiss her when Daniella blocked their lips with her hand.

"you can't do this here I mean, aren't you going to ask me what help I needed?"

Evan put a distance on her, he leaned on the wall and jammed both hands in his front pocket.

"What is it?"

"Well, my friend, she ahm, wanted to adopt a baby and I need a man to sign the paper as the kid's father. I would have asked Matthew but he kept nagging me about the rice cooker and Scott and Robert, they looked like a wrestle so I only have you."

Daniella bit her lips, she lied, she could get a baby with no problem, she has connections to make it happen but somehow after she left Claire's house, she suddenly thought of bringing Evan with her.

"Why would you adopt a baby for your friend? Cant, she adopts a baby by herself?"

Daniella blinked, she didn't really think that Evan would have some question, "well," she gulped hard, unsure of what to say next.

"you know what, I will just get her a dog," Daniella eventually said.

The door of the elevator door opened, she rushed out and waved a hand to him.

Evan sighed, watched Daniella as she ran towards the exit.

His hand moved in his pocket and took his phone out, dialed Mark's number.

"Mark, follow Ms. Chen and report to me."
