"What!" Liz said, not believing her ears
"Yeah you heard me right Lizzy" Raymond said and let go of her hand gently
" And how is she different from Cici?" Liz said slowly
"She's proficient... Competent and good at what she does, just two days here and she has already done a lot... So please , don't do it" he said seriously
" Did I just hear you praise her?, Raymond?, You hate praising another person, especially when your rank is higher" she said
" Well maybe I changed my style" he replied
Liz gave Emery one devilish look
Emery made sure her eyes made no contact with hers
"You can go Emery" Raymond said
She took a bow before leaving
She got to her desk and inhaled hard before taking her seat
"What was that?, Her eyes are piercing, Glenn wasn't lying, she's not nice" she thought, holding her chest that's still beating wildly as a result of fear
She held her cheeks
"It'd have been swollen by now if not for boss, I escaped narrowly, gosh!"

Liz took her seat in front of Raymond but he concentrated on his laptop, not looking at her
"Raymond are you mad at me?" She said
He kept mute
"Raymond...talk to your baby please" she said
Raymond pushed the laptop to another side of the table
"My baby?, My babe who has no time for me when I was in serious pains last night, are you really my girlfriend?" He said , still showing signs of anger
" But I told you I'm out with my friends, we were busy having fun and I can't just ruin the fun by leaving them, and I told you to call the maids right?" She said
He smiled lightly before getting serious again
" Having fun?, When I was dying?, And you were saying you told me to call the maids, for pain relievers? What fucking pain relievers when you know the kind of migraine it is! That no matter how much the pain relievers, it'll only go when it pleases!, Liz stop talking it's irritating to the ears!" He yelled
" Raymond don't yell at me!!!* She yelled back
"Bravo!, just leave me alone ok?, Liz you're unbelievable" he said and took his laptop again
Liz stood and walked up to where he's sitting
" Don't touch me" he said when she made to touch him
" Baby I'm sorry" she said in a pleading tone
" Liz Please...I don't want to tell at you again, just go for now please" he said, not looking at her
" Raymond I'm sorry.. will you spare me just a glance please?, Huh?, Raymond please" she said
She successfully touched his back and he made to move away but she hugged him
"Liz....
" No I won't go, just pardon your baby ok?, I love you very much and you know it, ok I agree I'm at fault, and I'm sorry... Please baby, I won't do it again Raymond" she said, rubbing his chest
He kept mute
" Why do you have to call out your seducing skills now" he said, slowly giving In
" Cos I want you to forgive me, baby I won't do it again" she said
