Ivy was wearing an open back black gown, it had a strap of rope that was tied to her neck and it made sure her gown didn't fall from her body.

Ivy felt the tears at her back and this was the first time she saw Darien release tears.

"Are you okay?" She faced her head to the right and she could see his hair rubbing her mouth.

He turned his face to the left and his hair shifted from her mouth. Their lips were almost in contact with each other, it was 2cm apart from each other. Ivy gulped and she was feeling nervous. He was drunk and he could do anything while her lips was no longer connected to her body. Her lips wanted to taste his lips again.

She gave a deep breath and tried her best to over look it but his handsome face and his juicy pink lips were both very tempting.

"I'll take you home." She managed and said words.

He removed his head from her shoulder and she was so happy that nothing happened. He was drunk and she didn't know what to do.

Ivy was confused and was thinking of what to do. Darien dragged her hand and took her out of the club. He stood straight and was still acting formal even in his drunk state.

"Where's your car?" Ivy was trying her best to take him home but he wasn't responding to any of her questions.

"At least where do you live?" She was already frustrated.

Darien was no responding and he was standing straight, he was doing like he was in a meeting or paying his respect to his elders.

"Altina road, number 1 blue." Darien had finally responded and he spoke formally.

At least she knew where he lived now. His face was pink and pale, his eyes were red and he looked like he needed some sleep and he hadn't sleep in ten days.

Ivy didn't know were his car was and it was getting late, she had to take bus to go. She was also happy because that place was very close to her house. She held his hand and took him to the nearby bus stop. They waited for ten minutes until the bus finally arrived.

They entered the bus and they sat on the chair close to the window. They sat beside each other. Ivy was beside the window and Darien sat by her side. The bus was going slowly and Darien was already dozing off.

Darien wasn't feeling comfortable, he wasn't used to taking bus. He saw Ivy left shoulder and he placed his head on it.

When Darien placed his head, Ivy felt like all her worries had gone and she was starting to feel extremely comfortable with him. She didn't want to remove his head but instead she wrapped her left hand around him and she put his head comfortably on her shoulder. She looked at him and he was looking extraordinary handsome even though he was extremely drunk.

The bus stopped at Darien street. Darien was still sleeping but she has to wake him up.

"Darien Darien Darien." Ivy tapped his cheeks and she kept calling out his name.

Darien opened his eyes and they were completely red. He saw his street and he knew he had to go. He stood and left the bus. Ivy was seeing him through the window and he was still staggering. He turned back and waved her goodbye and he gave a small smile.

The bus kept driving and Ivy kept looking at Darien. The bus drove and she couldn't see Darien again.

*****
The elevator opened and ivy entered the staff room. She was wearing a white designer office top, a black mini shirt, a black with sliver stone shoe and she packed her braids in ponytail, she also wore slight makeup which was her usual makeup.

She walked in and she saw Emily
Emily waved at her and she smiled back. She entered Darien office and she was holding a file. She saw him, he was wearing his usual office cloth but this time he was wearing a black shirt, white trouser, white suit and a black shoe.

She walked and stayed opposite him. She placed the file on the table and was about to leave.

"Wait." His voice stopped her from moving and she turned back to him. "I'm so sorry for what happened on saturday and I also want to thank you."

"There's no need sir." Ivy replied with a warm smile.

"It must have been really inconvenient for you, so please allow me to apologize."

Ivy smiled wider and she left to her her office.

Arizona and her parents sat on the couch and they were waiting for Williams to arrive. Williams came down the stairs and he was so surprised to see them in his house.

Williams walked and he reached the couch. He sat and stayed opposite them.

"Oh my, you didn't have to come." Williams spoke so nicely but all of it was just a sharade.

Williams never acted nice to anyone or respect anyone except of they held an important value to his life, which was money. If anyone was the cause of why he was getting money, he made sure to treat them specially. That was the main reason why he liked Darien out of his children. His favorite was Darien because he made him to gain money, do he kept him close to him.

Drake walked in and he saw his father talking to them. Drake had not recover from the shock and he was eager to be the chairperson, for that he had to be at his best behavior in front of his dad. He paused and he wanted to hear this conversation and thankfully his father didn't see him. He shifted to the pillar in the siting room and he started hearing their conversation.

"We came here to bring a proposal to you." Kelvin said.

"What would that be?"

"Why don't you make Darien the next chairperson?" Kelvin gave his reply.

When Drake heard that, he fainted.
