Chapter three

The sound of a sweet melody filled the room as those long, thin and slender fingers moved smoothly across the piano. His eyes were shut as he let his mind be engulfed in the melody played. However this scene that seemed like it was straight out of a painting was interrupted by a gentle knock.

His eyes flew open, the music stopped abruptly and then a drown came on his alluring profile, he hated being interrupted during his practice.

it better be something good!

The person outside seemed to have taken the initiative since the other didn't reply.

"I'm so sorry Mr. Ian but Mr. Leo wants to see you" the young man who was his assistant said as he bowed fearfully.

"Don't you know what to do Luke? Tell him to pass his message through you, I'm busy" Ian said coldly.

"Yes Boss" The door clicked shut and everything went back to how it was, those slender fingers moved across the piano ever so perfectly.

Work was over, Ophelia decided to use the nearby cafe to start her research, she needed that money. She brought out her laptop and went on We Chat almost immediately, she needed the latest updates on Ian's schedule but there was nothing upcoming.

Everything he had on his schedule didn't match the spin she had in mind. She needed evidence and then she had to get a perfect plan. She sighed she didn't get what she wanted.

She gave herself some hope about getting some news before packing her bags and leaving the Cafe.

A knock came again as the door open to reveal Luke standing there with a well designed card in his hand. Ian looked at him for a sec before returning his gaze to his phone with that single action Luke began to talk.

"Sir, Mr. Leo invites you to his son's birthday banquet" Ian looked up quietly as he dropped his phone on the couch.

"When is it?" he asked

"A day after" there was no reply so he stood there quietly.

"Drop it" he said calmly and Luke dropped it to the side stool closest to him before he scurried out.

"I just need to tail you for a few days until I find something useful" Ophelia said with a sinister smile and then it switch to a perfectly cute frown.

"Oh! My dear idol, I'm so sorry I've got to do this but..." she paused for a while before wailing out dramatically as she ruffled her hair

"I'm just too poor...."
