A Fate Foretold

Chapter 8

It was a beautiful sunny day, Avyrain happily ate lunch with Valt as usual then she went into her brother's office

The moment she stepped inside his office, Avyrain was caught in a surprise as her brother smiling to a woman came into her sight

"Avy, you're here" Reinhardt uttered as he gazed at Avyrain

"Yeah, I had the documents you requested" Avyrain stated

"What were you doing with her?" she asked

'You never smiled at any woman aside from us before' Avyrain thought to herself

"We just had some discussions" Reinhardt replied

The woman who was so innocently beautiful gazed at Avyrain as she said "You must be Miss Avyrain Wisteria, nice to meet you"

"I'm Leal Rose, a newly hired intern" she uttered with a graceful smile on her face

'There's no way my brother would let an intern enter his office' Avyrain thought to herself

"Why is a newly hired intern get to have a discussion with my brother alone in his office?" Avyrain stated as she crossed her arms

"Oh Miss, please don't misunderstand" Leal uttered

"I'm not asking you, I'm talking to my brother" Avyrain stated

Reinhardt sighed as he said "She just made a clumsy mistake so I reprimanded her, nothing more"

Reinhardt looked at Leal as he said "You can now go"

Leal politely nodded her head and went out of the office

"What was that smiling all about?" Avyrain stated

"Am I not allowed to smile at anyone?" Reinhardt stated

"But you usually show an evil smile to anyone" Avyrain uttered

"Anyway, give me the documents" Reinhardt stated

'He's changing the topic' Avyrain thought to herself

"So why were you smiling so softly at her?" Avyrain asked as she handed him the documents

"I was?" Reinhardt uttered

Avyrain gasped as she said "You were not aware?"

"Stop exaggerating and go back to work" Reinhardt stated

"You're already chasing me out, it's the beginning of rebellion" Avyrain uttered in surprise

'Why do I have such a dramatic sister who draws a conclusion by herself?' Reinhardt thought with a sigh

"Call in my assistant when you go out" Reinhardt stated

Avyrain nodded her head in response then she got out and called Reinhardt's assistant

"Tell me honestly, is Reinhardt treating that new intern different from others?" Avyrain asked with seriousness

"I don't think so but I've seen them together a few times despite that girl being newly hired, rumors have also been circling on here about them" Reinhardt's assistant replied

"What kind of rumors?" Avyrain asked

"The employees call her the white rose because of her beauty so they were saying that she must be the only flower that will bloom in our boss' cold winter romance" the assistant replied

"That's absurd, I don't agree with it" Avyrain stated

"Don't they look good together though?" Reinhardt's assistant uttered
