Who is Keith Johnson?

His temperament scared Gisele a bit. She took a few steps back but was blocked off by the wooden frame of her Queen sized bed. He looked like he was ready to rip out her throat any minute.

Rules?

She didn't need to ask which? He was probably talking about the rule of not going out without his permission and also going out with the guards. She did remember this but thought it wouldn't matter if she breezed out and in quickly. But who knew this tyrant would throw such a fuss for a few stupid rules.

"It was not intentional. I had to attend to an emergency" She defended.

"Emergency?" He chuckled again and his eyes darkened in displeasure. Remembering what he had just been debriefed on brought a very unpleasant feeling to his heart. He really hated that she had dared him.

"I'm less concerned. My rules were simple still yet you broke them" he repeated again icily.

Gisele felt him to be very unreasonable. Her eyes darkened too and her brows rise in anger. What was all this tantrums for? She had only been gone for a couple of hours, did he really have to creat such a scene? He surely was acting like a child!

"I might have but it still not a reason to be making this scene"

Like a crack in glass. Her words only fueled the anger in his head.

"I'm making a scene?" He scoffed lightly "wait and see what I have in stock for your friend" emphasis made on friend. It was sure he didn't believe her when she said it was a friend. He turned and began walking to the door.

Doubt flashed past Gisele's eyes and she rushed to intercept him "Devon don't be unreasonable!"

Unreasonable?

"it's just some stupid rules and if at all there is anyone to be punished, then it's me!"she hurriedly said while blocking the door with both hands stretched out. The last thing she wanted was him making trouble for miss Claudia. All though she knew Claudia had a high status she wasn't sure if her family status was higher than Devon's. Who knows how much of trouble the heartless man would make for them. If only she knew the truth then she would be totally unfazed with the threat he just made.

Devon's eyes furrowed more than it already was. The girl willingly sacrificed herself to save this friend, just how important was this friend to her? His eyes fleetingly glanced at the report in his hands.

"I've made it clear. As long as you keep him hidden I would turn a blind eyes to his existence. But you just had to break that rule too, now I'll deal with this like I said I would. Your Keith Johnson would be an example to never break my rules again" he said with a rigid face and harshly pushed her out of his way "oh and don't worry. You would also be punished. You're not leaving this room till I say you could" With that he walked out of the room banging the door behind him. Leaving Gisele dumbfounded and confused than she was few seconds ago.

Him?

She had gone to see Aunty Claudia who was clearly a female, so why was Devon mentioning a him?

Who was Keith Johnson?

Gisele became unsettled. She wanted to call and ask Aunty Claudia but her phone was confiscated from her. Devon must have misunderstood that she had gone to see her lover, even still how did he come about this Keith Johnson? Perhaps had Aunty Claudia booked the room in that name? What if it was her family member or someone close to her? Does that mean the person would get targeted for what he didn't do?

Sigh! What could she do to savage the situation? He definitely wouldn't listen to her explanation unless he finds out by himself. Plus... What did he say?

She couldn't leave her room till he said so?!

That's... So-so.

...

Over at the Montero Family Manor. Old man Hugo had just finished having his breakfast and he was debriefed on what was going on in his son's house.

He had a frustrated look as well as a confused glance in his eyes.

The girl had gone out in the middle of the night? Where had she gone to?.

"Apparently she went was seized at Cloud hotel and Devon's Intel says she had gone into a room booked by a man named Keith Johnson" Secretary Jim continued narrating.

Grandpa Hugo's eyes furrowed lightly. He had his doubts. The girl wasn't someone who would do such a thing. He wondered why she had suddenly gone to see a man in the dead of the night and what connections she had with that man.

Wait... What did they say?

"What is his name again?" He asked hastily dumping the cup of tea in his hand on the thick glass table.

"Keith Johnson" Secretary Jim replied. Looking into the tab in his hand to make sure he was correct.

Keith Johnson?

Keith Johnson?!

It couldn't be right.

"Where was Claudia last night?" He asked in haste again.

"apparently she had another fight with First Master and had left the house late at night. She appeared to have slept in a hotel."

The Old man sighed and shook hiss head. He didn't need to ask or investigate to know what was going on. Claudia had finally used that room. That hotel room he had passed down to her years ago was finally put to use but in return it had also caused a great misunderstanding.

The person the girl had gone to see was no one else but Claudia but Devon had gotten the wrong information. He wasn't wrong altogether, the room was really booked by Keith Johnson but it's such a coincidence that the same Man who was now taken as a love rival is actually the girl's biological father.

That room special reserved for the man was handed to him by his friends after his son's death. He in turn had handed it to Claudia since he had no use for it. Who knew it would end up creating such a misunderstanding.

Sigh! Fate could really not be predicted.

"That brat had made a mistake" The Old mna muttered.

Secretary Jim inquired curiously "Grandpa what do you mean?"

"The main culprit is Claudia. I personally handed her that room. The girl must have gone to see her at that time. Now that brat think she's having an affair with the one who the room was reserved for. how could shr be having an affair with her own father?"

Thr young Secretary eyes were open wider than his mouth was. The twist of event was indeed shocking. He never would have guessed it to turn out this way. Of a truth he too had been suspicious of the young lady after hearing the news, but now it was all a huge misunderstanding.

"Then shouldn't we tell Young master? I bet he has sent one or two people to fish out this man. It would all turn out ugly if the issue is dragged on." He suggested hurriedly. No Father would take it lightly if he was accused with having an affair with his own daughter, especially not by his own Son-in-law. Even if everything is eventually cleared as a misunderstanding, it still would definitely leave a stain in the relationship.

The Old man shook his head "just leave them be. Let them settle it out themselves. Which couple hasn't had a few misunderstanding at the onset of their marriage. If they can't solve this one, they wouldn't be able to solve the ones coming in future. Besides even if Devon climbs to the end of the Earth, he would never find out who Keith Johnson is." As he said the last sentence, a dark light flashed passed his eyes. That entity was erased from all forms of existence, never to be brought to light agsin. If even his old pal could only pretend to be never have had such a son then who was he to resurface what is meant to be buried. Not even the Montero Family could rival that force.

Secretary Jim was intrigued by such a declaration but the old man's face showed there was no chance to ask about it. It seems the girl's background was steeper than it already was. Just what secret lies behind her?

Grandpa Hugo continued "Devon would eventually cool off when there's no one to vent his anger on."

"What if he decides to take it on Miss Gisele? I heard he's already bound her to her room. Master Devon could make things really difficult for her"

"He wouldn't dare!" The old man turned grim "He knows his limit. Plus do you really think the girl is Pushover? She might look frail and gentle but if there is anyone to meet Devon's fury, she is the one."

Secretary Jim lips twitched awkwardly, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this point. Why did it sound like the Old chairman was waiting to see the miss match with Devon's fury? His masochistic mind couldn't help but picture the scene. Could their new Young miss really tame the Young master with her own fury? No doubt they were bound to witness a show.
