Sarah's POV

" You convinced him?" Paris asked me.

" Yes. I told him the whole situation and he said he doesn't have any rush to do anything with grandma's house currently. We can talk to the asset attorney and settle things." I lied.

I don't want her to be so worried about this. She needs to have some rest and study without any worries. Because she has her exam coming soon. I can't make her worry about this now.

" He left it that easily?" She asked me narrowing her eyes.

" Yes." I said to her.

" Are you hiding something from me?" She asked me.

" No. Not at all. What will I hide from you?" I asked him.

" You are lying I can say that from your face." She said.

" Yeah, yeah. I got it that you don't trust me like before. I know you have changed." I acted a bit.

" Drama Queen!!! What do you want me to do now?" She asked me.

" Aright if you don't trust me then you can come with me and talk to me about this with the new owner yourself." I said to her and she sighed.

" Ok. I trust you. If you are saying then let it be. I will not complain." She said.

" Yes, you should trust your best friend. I am a good and responsible friend. You shouldn't have to worry about anything until I am alive." I said. She chuckled.

" You are a crazy girl." She said and I giggled.

" Yes, I agree." I said to her.

" I have some works to do. I have to leave now. See you in the evening." She said and I nodded. I waited for her to leave first then I came out of the apartment. I called Tony to reach near the office of the jerk with the money.

I reached there in awhile. I was searching for Tony but he wasn't still there. I was roaming around. It was nice to enjoy the weather. Suddenly I bumped into someone.

" Oh, I am so sorry." I said to the person.

" It's ok." I found a tall guy with blonde hair who smiled at me. He was charming but it didn't work on me still I smiled back.

" I am really sorry. I wasn't looking at the way." I said.

" It's ok. No worries." He said. " By the way I am Mason Wyle." He said extending his hand towards me.

" Abigail Miller." I said shaking his hand.

" Nice to meet you, Abigail." He said.

" Same here." I said.

" Will you mind to have a coffee with me?" He asked me. I chuckled.

" Are you trying to hit on me?" I asked him.

" Just friendly asking. If you don't want to then it's ok." He said.

" No hitting on me?" I asked him.

" Do you want me to hit on you?" He asked me and I chuckled.

" No, not at all. If you are trying then you better back off." I said.

" Then it's a friendly invitation only." He said and I laughed.

" Alright, let's go then. If it's a friendly invitation then." I said to him.

" No worries it's a friendly invitation only." He said chuckling.

" It better be a friendly invitation." I said to him.

" It is." He said chuckling again.

We went to a coffee shop nearby to have a coffee. We sat near the window.

" So, Abigail what do you do?" He asked me.

" I am a student." I said. " What about you?" I asked him.

" I have a law firm nearby. You can say I am an entrepreneur." He said chuckling.

" That's great. So you are a businessman?" I asked him.

" Not in that sense but I am a lawyer if you ask me about my occupation." He said smilingly. I nodded.

" So sad that I am not a law student." I said and he laughed.

" You are funny." He said.

" Sometimes." I said sipping the coffee.

" You live around?" He asked me.

" Yeah, exactly 3 km from here." I said and he chuckled.

" Alright. I won't ask for your address." He said. " But I might can have your phone number." He said.

" If you don't keep annoying me then yes." I said.

" I won't." He said.

" I have personal experience. So if you even do then it won't work either." I said and he chuckled.

" You can relax. I am harmless." He said and we exchanged our numbers.

After spending some time together he left saying he has an important meeting to attend. But he promised to make it up next time. I wonder if we will meet again or not.

I then called Tony to get the money from him. I found him reaching me so I cut the call. He handed me the cheque and I thanked him before crossing the road to reach the office of the jerk. I hope after today I will not see him ever again in my life.

I entered the office and the same receptionist greeted me. I talked with him for awhile. I come to know that the sl*tty secretary has been fired yesterday. Strange!!! A guy like the jerk should like a girl like that secretary. Cause he doesn't like the decent girls. She was perfect for him. But whatever. I don't want to think about it. I reached his floor and knocked on the door. I waited for him to allow me to get in.

" What are you doing here?" I jumped a bit listening his voice from back. It was hell cold. I don't know why for the first time it started to scare me.

" I came to give you the cheque." I said to him without looking at him. I was feeling like if I look at his eyes I will be frozen. I could feel his eyes on me. I started to feel a bit uncomfortable then when he decided to speak out something to vanish that awkwardness.

" Come in." He said opening the door and he let me enter first then he himself came in and closed the door behind. I don't know why I was feeling like he was raging inside.

" Come, have a seat." He said.

" I have some works. I need to go." I said. " Here, keep this." I said to him giving him the cheque and he raised one of his eyebrows.

" Where did you get all the money overnight?" He asked me and I looked at him coldly.

" None of your business." I said.

" Is that Mason who get you all the money?" He asked me. What!!! How does he know him?!!

" What if yes?! Mind your own business. You have your money now stay happy with money." I said and was about to leave but he hold my hand to stop me.

I felt some kind of electric shock ran through my body as our skin came to contact. I tried to pull my hand out but I couldn't as his hold on me was firm enough to break.

" Stay away from him. He is a bad news." He said seriously.
