"That stupid boy," Michelle muttered under her breath when her driver drove she and Gina, to where juliet worked... She was glad she had such a daughter in law with quick thinking. Gina reminded her of herself in a way... She was ambitious and she liked it... She just wished she wasn't so forward sometimes... it would have been better if she hadn't gone and found things out herself. She would have handled the matter sooner or later... "This is the place ma'am," Her drive said when they stopped in front of a building with a sign reading "DB Publishing company."""" "We are not here to confront her. just to speak with her, " Michelle said, and Gina nodded. They both came out of the car and walked into the building that didn't even have an elevator. They had to go up the stairs... Gina barely placed her hand on the stair railing as she walked behind Michelle... How could people work in such a place... Her boutique that she considered small was far bigger than the place... They arrived at a door, and Michelle pushed the door open... Gina, following behind her life, is a puppy... The place looked close to empty as they walked in. It was still morning, and most of the chairs and table cubicles were empty... it wasn't even lunch break hour yet, and yet the place was so empty... "Are you sure this is where she works?" Michelle said to Gina, who was standing beside her now, and Gina nodded. it had to be... her private investigator had never been wrong... A woman walked out from the back and stopped in her tracks when she saw Michelle and Gina... her eyes scanned both women, unsure of why they were here. they weren't expecting anyone, and Sonia wasn't in... "Good morning," She greeted, the both of them, her curiosity eyes scanning them. Her eyes almost grew wide when she saw the bag Gina was holding in her hand... She had seen it online and it was a designer bag that was super expensive... did they miss their way... "We are looking for Juliet." Michelle said, trying to confirm if they were in the right place or if Gina had made a mistake... She wanted to leave this place already... "Juliet... she is out now. I can call her and tell her you are here to see her, " Lana said, wondering why they were looking for juliet. The only person she knew juliet with was her mother and her mother had passed away... "That would not be necessary," Michelle said and turned away, but lana stopped her and Gina... "Who should I tell her came to see her. so she knows to contact you. " Michelle turned to look at lana and said, "I'm Michelle Graham. tell her that and she would know who i am. " "Michelle Graham," Lana muttered as she watched both women leave... Johnny came out also with a cup of coffee in his hand... "Was someone here. I heard voices." He said, and lana turned to look at him and nodded. "Two women came in and asked for juliet..." She said and took the cup of coffee from his hand before walking away. "You could have asked me to make yours," Johnny said and rolled his eyes, but lana only smiled at him. "I like your own better." She glared at her when she took a sip out of his coffee... "Are we really getting such a big job?" He asked, and lana nodded. "Yes, I hope it works out. I don't want to have to search for a new job, I like it here. don't hand in your resignation yet, " She said, and Johnny shook his head. "I wasn't planning to, I had a feeling that everything was going to work out just fine, but I know you thought otherwise. I saw you searching for a new job online. " "I know you searched for a new one too. Everyone did," "She really works there," Gina said as she and Michelle both headed back to the car. "Don't worry dear, I will take care of this myself, you don't have to worry about a thing like this. I'm sure it's just a fling... I will set up a date for you and Alex, and then we will come to see your parents and pick out a date for your engagement, " Michelle assured. Gina and Gina nodded. She hoped it was just a fling and one-time thing... Immediately after the get engaged, she would rush up the whole wedding... that was her plan... She still wanted to find out more about juliet. She was curious to know the type of person she was. Why did Alex look so happy when he was with her, making she could learn and use it... _______________ ________________ "You are finally back. How did it go!" Lana said when Sonia and juliet got back from where they had gone to... Johnny was back also and wasn't able to get any investors, but it didn't matter anymore... "Yes, they asked us to schedule a meeting as soon as possible, so I need all the support i can get from all of you..." Sonia said, and lana was beyond excited... "Where is Johnny. he should be back by now, " Sonia asked, and Johnny walked out from where he was.... "I'm back, lana made sure to fill me in on everything and also steal my coffee," He said, and juliet chuckled... "Alright, we should all get to work." Sonia headed to her office, and they all got to work... "Two ladies came by earlier to see you," Lana said to juliet as they walked to their break room... "Me?" Juliet said, wondering who it was and then becoming scared the next second that it was her aunt who had come to find her. How did she know where she worked. Even people in her neighbourhood had no idea where she worked... "She said her name was Michelle Graham, and you would know if I told you," Lana said, and Juliet immediately became confused... "Michelle Graham? i don't know anyone named that"... why were they looking for her, where they acquaintances of her aunt, or was her aunt using a different name now..
