Information

Silence reigned. Alexander kept his gaze fixed on her as she ran down the stairs in a hurry.

"Master, Welcome back." Alyce greeted the silent Alexander with a bright smile.

All the while he said nothing, just staring at her fixedly.

"Master come eat, I'm sure you must be hungry." That away, Alexander was pulled by the girl towards the dinning area where he took a seat and looked at all the dishes placed Infront of him.

He gazed back at the girl who he thought had not realized that she was in a bathrope in his presence. Trailing his gaze from her face and then down to the rope, he cleared his throat, hoping to alleviate the situation.

But Alyce had no hint what was wrong, she stood there smiling at him.

"These are…."

"Oh, Master I didn't know your preference, so I made anything I could think of." She responded.

Alexander nodded slowly. His brows squinted. "You made this?" He asked her.

"Yes I did." She replied quickly.

"Didn't you loose your memory? How do you still remember how to cook?" Alex asked with obvious doubt in his tone.

"I…. Don't know."

"Meaning?"

"Don't get me wrong Master, I honestly don't know how I remembered this. When I saw the ingredients I just followed my instincts. Everything felt familiar but I didn't know how I got it." Alyce explained, when she saw the doubts and suspicion in his eyes.

Alexander mellowed down his aura seeing the girl already getting frightened.

Without further inquiries, he picked up the cutleries and dug into the meal, unexpectedly it was good. But he didn't show it out, he turned to Alyce who was standing by the side with her head buried low.

Obviously, he could tell that her mood was down. He had to admit, this was the first time he has ever seen her being all bubbly and active. And she looked better that way.

Now, he had gone all the way to drain that happiness off her.

Exhaling deeply, he spoke. "Had dinner?"

"Huh?" Alyce did not get him, she understood but it was too sudden that she didn't get to understand properly.

After another deep exhale, "Have you had dinner?" He repeated. Judging from the expression on his face, it was as though he was not used to repeating words.

"Umm no not yet." She hurriedly replied.

"Are you just going to stand there and watch me eat?"

"Huh?" Again she was caught off guard. Hearing the sigh from him this time, she knew she was not supposed to be told. She instantly replied.

"No, no, no Master, I'll get going now." She immediately started to rush away when suddenly a startling loud bang echoed in the living room.

Only for her to turn to see him already stopped eating, his cutleries placed on the plates and his palms moulded into fists on top the table. Meaning that he had just hit the table.

Alyce, started to wonder internally if she had offended him in anyway. But looking back, the was nothing she did apart from standing there while he had his dinner.

'Maybe that could be the case.' She said inwardly. Taking that as a conclusion she thought scrabbling away was a solution.

"Stop right there."

Alyce immediately halted.

"Where do you think you are going to?" Alexander asked her.

Unexpectedly, his voice didn't sound as infuriating as he looked seconds ago, making one questioning their reality.

"Back…Up…to.." She began to stutter.

"Come eat."

Silence!

Alyce was shocked with what she just heard. He was calling her to join him?!

Turning to give an awkward smile, Alyce respectfully refused. "There is no need for that master, I'm not feeling hungry."

"You are making me repeat my words." Alex voiced out with a daring tone.

With no more words said, Alyce found herself moving, she gently grabbed a seat opposite him and sat.

It was awkward at first, but she got adjusted to it. She ate with abandon, not minding if her boss was watching her or not.

With food smeared all over her lips, she looked up at him. "Master, why aren't you eating?" She asked, noticing that he had since stopped eating.

"I'm full." He gave a curt reply, watching her discreetly.

"Oh, then, I'll go drop this." Alyce said and was about standing up with the dishes when he stopped her.

"You are not done yet, you can continue."

"....Okay."

Alyce found it difficult to continue with his eyes watching over her like a halk.

"Master, your bath is ready, you can go shower I while do the dishes."

He got reminded of the fact that she was still in her rope and seated right Infront of him. Her slight movements had made some parts of her skin on the chest area to be exposed.

Seeing she was getting uncomfortable, Alexander outrightly agreed with a nod. He stood and left for the stairs.

With a sigh, Alyce immediately grabbed the dishes and ran towards the kitchen, after she had made sure he was no longer in sight.

Upon reaching his room, Alexander pulled off his shirt. He walked into the bathroom in a daze. 'Could she be telling the truth?' His mind pondered. Shaking his head, he turned on the shower and let the water drain him completely.

Thoughts of her danced in his mind. He wasn't used to this, but in his mind, he wished he could get used to this.

After exiting the shower, Alex strolled out with a towel wrapped around his waist as he wiped his hair roughly.

Something crossed his mind, he walked into his walk-in closet and pulled out his pajamas. After putting them on, he strode out to the direction of the bedside stool, picked up his phone and sent a call across.

In less than five rings the call was connected.

"Hello, Boss?" The person from the other side spoke up in a lethargic manner.

"The girl. I want her information on my desk tomorrow."

That being said, the call was ended, leaving no room for the other person to give a retort.
