The Devil's Sweetheart

23

"They are worse than kids Austin."

Austin and Leah exhaled a loud sigh at their quirks. They could accept Jennie's actions. But it was getting hard for them to digest Lisa's childish behavior. As far as they remembered, he always maintains a reserved front since they have been seeing him. Now that they are watching him turn into a lovesick, both shook heads in disbelief.

"We need to pull them apart Austin. It would be no end to the banters and we need their help right now." With that, they dragged both off them into the house. Quietly, Jennie and Lisa also followed when they realized their behavior looked like silly gaffes.

"Please help us first," Austin begged the moment they entered into their room. "We will leave you alone after our problem is solved."

"You better be," Lisa whispered. My sweetheart's sleep is already ruined because of you both.

"Give a call to him, Leah. Convince him and make him believe that you are really in short of money. But a little careful, don't stammer with your words while speaking." Lisa elucidated.

"Ok." Composing her emotions, Leah went out to call him. Watching her leave, Jennie began praying with all her might to receive the good news from her friend when she is back.

"At least show some expressions. You are looking like a bot." Lisa whispered taking her rigid statue.

"I am no robot, no unicorn. If you call me with those funky names next time, trust me, I will make your AK DRAGON doesn't work for your future generations to come." Lisa instantly shut his mouth with the threat.

With a victory smile, Jennie got up to bring her system for tonight's work.

"I will go and look for Leah." Austin got up looking for Leah when she was not showing up for an hour and just then the door also opened.

"He agreed," Leah said. She could still sense her hands were shaking in fear when Bernard was interrogating if she is trying to trick him as she did five years ago. Only when he didn't trace any suspicious calls in her mobile, he reluctantly agreed.

Austin breathed a sigh of relief. Now that one of the tasks is completed, they have another big mission. To destroy the evidence of their company secrets from his computer.

"Asshole! I will kill him once I get everything back." He balled his fists in anger.

"I will hire someone to hack into his computer," Austin stated.

Even though he was taking risk of allowing another intruder, he doesn't have a choice now. Austin barely heard Jennie talking about removing something from Bernard's computer, but he brushed off the thought reasoning she was just bluffing to make Leah comfort at that time.

"You don't need to. She can handle herself." Pointing towards Jennie, Lisa stated.

Scared, Jennie looked at him with a sunken mouth. How did he know about it?

When Jennie unlocked her laptop a while before, Lisa peeked into it too and he was amazed to see hundreds of high leveled technical tools installed on her computer. For a moment, he thought she is a skilled programmer.

There was only one question running in his head. How does a fashion model aware of the most high level and advanced languages? When he looked into his darlings wiki, except that she is a model, there was no other information, be it her studies, her likes, dislikes.

"What exactly is your identity sweetheart?" He wondered. When she bragged of destroying the data to Leah, like Austin, he also believed she was only cooking up a story to comfort Leah. But now that he has witnessed everything, he had a gut feeling that she must have hidden her identity.
