Though I already knew, while my mind kept screaming inside that I was gambling with everything, and my heart ached, yet I mustered the brightest smile I could and replied sincerely, "I trust you with my entirety. Who else can I trust if not you?" ******** He was a man known for many things. He was intelligent, smart, handsome, rich, powerful, talented, charismatic, charming, famous, celebrity, et cetera, et cetera.

But not everyone knew about his other side where he was broken, cold, calculative, secretive, dangerous, imposing, manipulative and a great actor.

"What voodoo stuff did you give me, you Bokor?" The tunnel that his loud shout created in my ears is not far from competing with Laerdal tunnel. I frowned at him and gave him a pouted angry scowl. "That is called a charm. A charm is an object that can help you with your wishes." "My wish was to win the bid for the project. Then why did my opponent win it?" Huh? His opponent won the bid. Shit! Did I mess up again? Not possible right?! Someone did win the bid so the charm did work its part. I looked at the angry handsome devilish gentleman and scratched my head awkwardly. "Your wish was to win the bid. You did not say who should win the bid. So, the charm did its magic, you cannot blame me for your incomplete explanation."

"You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting.
