Turn of events

At the coffee shop across the streets from Svetlana's office, it was crowded as usual she with everyone rushing to work. She ordered caramel latte and some donuts to go.

She crossed the streets and went to work. The detective was busy taking photos of her, he was packed right outside the building where she works.

'I have to come up with an answer for Recce by this evening.' She thought.

Recce has not communicated since the lunch date they had, she has been hoping that he would call her, she missed him.

Recce on the other, he went for a morning run to clear his head. He woke up anxious, since Svetlana has not communicate since there meet up. He did not have high hopes of a positive answer or she may even not contact him again.

Gradually, as hours went by, a sense of tension crept on Recce. He couldn't take it anymore so he decided to call Svetlana 's cell phone, nobody answered.

He took his coat and left to find her .

'Hello Mitchell! Am here to see your boss. Is she in?' Asked Recce

'No! You have just missed her, she left early today.' Replied Mitchell

He felt frustrated.

Perhaps do you know where she went?

'She did not say. Do you want me to let her know you're looking for her?' She asked

"There is no need,"Recce said curtly. And he turned around to leave.

While on his way to his car, he called his personal assistant.

'Find me Svetlana's home address right now.' 

'Yes sir.' His assistant replied.

He got in his car and the driver drove off.

His emotions were taking a control of him, he thought.

"Why am i bothered that she hasn't called to say anything, i can just find another woman to do it. And they would gladly do it. No woman can resist my charms."

He got a text Message. 

Her address is Killaloe, 27 Rocky Shores Lane, Round Lake Centre,ON.

Then he turned to the driver, take me to Killaloe.

Svetlana was at home alone, Kith was still at school. She needed some time to herself. She had realized that she has feelings for Recce and it will be hard for her to pretend that she was his girlfriend. And she also can't turn his down because he has been kind to her and Kith. She was torn in between.

Her thoughts were interrupted by her doorbell. 

'Who could it be at these time or it's Lucia. But she has her own set of keys.'

She unlocked the door.

Recce was standing at the door.

She had a mixed reaction, Shock, shyness. She wished it was her imaginations playing a tricks on her.

He went very close to her.

'Are you not going to invite me in'. He asked

'Sure am sorry, i just did not expect you.' She responded leading the way in.

While inside he pinned her to the back of the door, smelling her scent a mixture of roses and chocolate. Are you avoiding me Svetlana? 

Getting so close to her, she could feel they bodies touching, it aroused electric spark between them. He brushed off a hair in front of her face.Their lips almost touching, Recce withdrew.

'Am sorry, i didn't mean to'. Straightening himself, he felt embarrassed but he still had the urge to kiss her. He thought, whats going on with me.

She replied. 'Its okay.'

she thought ." May be he does not find me attractive enough."

Have a seat, she said finally.

'What did you decide about my proposal?' Recce asked

She remained silent for some time.

'If i agree to it i have some conditions'. Finally she spoke

So it's a 'yes'. Recce was so excited that he could not hide it.

'Yes i agreed'. She laughed.

'Let me hear your conditions.' He said

No kissing or touching in front of my son since its a fake. No sex involved and lastly no kissing or touching when its not necessary.

He smiled. 'I accept.'

I have some conditions of my own too. He said

Don't have any romantic relationship while we are together. No going out with other men.

' I hope it's the same for you too.' She said curtly

'Fine no problem.' He replied.

Then he continued, am free to visit you anywhere i want at all times. You also be spending the night at my place occasionally since your my girlfriend. And most of all we will be going on night date twice a week. Starting today.

'For how long are we going to pretend?' She asked.

'A whole year.' He replied

'That's too long! I can't put my life on hold for this.' She remarked

'Okay six months, its has to look convincing for my grandfather.' He said.

'That's fine' She replied.

I will pick you up at 20:00 hrs for our date. Am going back to work. He finally said while getting up to leave.

He kissed her on the cheek. 

'Laters babe.'

Her face was flushed.

The private detective was still packed outside Svetlana's House taking photographs of them both. He couldn't approach the house because of Recce bodyguards. But he had gathered more information and photos of her.

'I have more updates of the assignment. ' The detective texted Mr. Carson the Lawyer.

'Meet me at Mr. Nicholai's home in one hours time.' He replied back.

At Mr. Nicholai's home the lawyer and the detective were at his study room waiting for him.

They Stood up out of respect for him, he is the head of the richest family in Limerick.

'Sit down gentlemen.' He said.

'Here is the latest update of your supposed grandson's girlfriend.' 

The lawyer handed him the photos.

'Did you find out who she is?' Mr. Nicholai asked.

'Yes i did.' She is the owner of Philips pharmaceutical company. She started the company own her own , four years after graduating from the University of Adelaide. She is not from your social circle, but she had built some wealth of her own.

Her family background, i could only find her mother ,sister and son. Which she got pregnant on her final year of her studies. The child's father has been out of the picture since the boy was born.' The detective concluded

'This is interesting, i did not think my grandson is so responsible to have a relationship with a single mother.' Mr. Nicholai remarked.

'I want you to continue following them, i want to know more information.' Mr. Nicholai said finally will rising.

" Gentlemen, if you will excuse me."

Mr. Carson and the detective rose to their feet as he left.
