Vincent's POV

After my conversation with her, I lost the concentration to even look at the documents or laptop. As soon as I tried concentrating her tear stained face appeared in front of me. Ho w can this happen? Just in one day, she has made me half mad. I can't work like this.

Taking my phone out, I called Kian.

"Hello Davis." He answered in first ring itself.

"Martin. When you be will be telling Lisa's siblings that she is alive?" I asked him.

"I cannot say, not until their father is sent to police custody. If I say them now, they might resort to some extreme steps and that can send them in prison. Wait for few more days. Thanks dude!" I groaned internally.

"Fine." I said and hung up. Now that i am not working, I might as well search for some good psychologist. She will need one to recover and I can already imagine the fight when I will burst this bomb on her.

I don't understand, how can she fight for smallest thing and yet be so scared when I shout at her. She makes such expressions that I actually feel guilty for shouting when it is actually her mistake. Why she cannot accept that whatever I am doing is for her betterment? I felt like I have committed some sin when I made her cry, but I have no other options. I am getting too attached to her and I know she will never accept me even I give this blooming romance a chance.

At lease apologize to her is what I can do now.

Getting up from the chair, I kept all the documents in the safe and locked my laptop. After locking office door firmly, I went in search of her. I know she will be still crying in her room. Why she have to cry and make me feel like a villain here? I didn't plan to drag her out, but if I didn't her tears would have compelled me to say something that she wants to hear. And that is not right for as of now. She needs support, and I can't be that support because I know for the fact that one day or other she is going to leave me on her own.

"Sir?" I heard  Snow's voice as soon as I was about to go towards Lisa's room.

"Yes?" I asked her while looking at Lisa's room.

"Actually, can you help me in the kitchen? I just need corn flour which is on the upper shelf." She said making me sigh.

"Is there no stool around?" I asked her.

"Yes... Err. It is." She said.

"Then use it." I said shrugging my shoulders making her ears turn red. I don't like when people try to be extra smart with me. I absolutely abhor anyone lying and not showing their true self. Lisa is not like that and may be that is why I feel comfortable with her.

"Sir... But actually the stool is shaking quite a lot. I am afraid, I will fall down." She said making me frown. Whom is she trying fool? I am a detective for god's sake. What would be my respect if I don't know what is happening within my own house? 

"Fine. Let's go." I said and gestured her to lead.

She went to the kitchen and pointed at the the container on the upper shelf. Eventually, she thinks I am mad. I make my own food daily and I will not know where the corn flour container will be? But she needs to be given a good lesson.

"Ms. Snow, I am your boss. Get the stool here and get the container. I will hold the stool for you." I said and after hearing that she was elated.

And... I can exactly describe the scene she is thinking about in her mind. But, actually it is mistake. I was in a hurry to appoint the caretaker that I chose to ignore her advances. No issues, today is the day she will get her lesson to make undue advance towards me.

What is she thinking? That some romantic scene will be created here? That she will "un"intentionally fall from the stool while taking the container and the flour will fall upon and I will save her? That I will catch her in my arms and will be lost in her eyes?

My foot! Just you get up the stool and then I will show you. That Vincent Davis is not someone who can be easily fooled... You cannot brings the ideas from some sappy romantic movies and apply it on me. And on top of that you are expecting that I will fall for such cheap tactics?

Ms. Snow... Dream on!

Would you have enjoyed the same scene if the heroine is replaced with Lisa?

I would have accepted that scene with half-heart in that case just to respect her.

Urgghh! Whatever my mind is thinking? And what the hell is my heart answering!

"Sir... Please catch me tightly or I will fall." Snow said making me snort in irritation.

"Fine." I said and she got on the stool and as she was trying to be in her character she didn't look down on whether I have caught the stool not. And I did bend a little making her think that I am holding the stool. She should receive an award for such acting. If instead of me there was some other man, that man would have surely fallen to this trap. What is expecting that I will give her kitchen sex? 

Some people just don't know there limits and that is why they should be given some extreme measure to get them on line.

"Sir, I cannot reach the table even now. Can you come up please?" She asked making me groan. She is just steps ahead in her seducing techniques.

"This stool was originally made for one person at a time. And if you push you legs more upwards then I am sure you will get a hand on the container." I said to which she frowned.

Bloody bitch! If seducing me was this easy then I would not have become a detective.
