Chapter 25: Michael

I walk out of the study laughing loudly with my father. We have been discussing Mr. Leonardo's embezzlement of the company's fund. And he was extremely happy when I told him how I disciplined him according to the law.

My heart skips a beat when I notice that Nina was not on the seat. Maybe she went to the washroom. I relax a bit, as I walk down the stairs with my dad.

"Deborah?" My dad said, with surprise as my eyes flew to the woman in question who was standing at the door staring up at me with a smile.

"Hello, Daniel" She greeted my father smiling, dad walks up to her and hugs her" How are you? How is my old friend, Melton?" He said.

"He's fine, I was just passing by and decided to stop by. I'm surprised to see you here, Michael" She said as she came to hook her hands around me.

I step out of her hands as I went in search of Nina. I look in the washroom and outside, at the garden but she was not in any of those places. On my way to the sitting room, I met my mom.
