Vell Chapter 7 'Storm'

Northside of Maria City, near Shina Port.

In the highest floor of the 17-storey building.

In the spacious room with simple but elegance interior, there are no single noise despite of a group of people inside. The room is well organized, when enter the room, one can see a huge window facing up Shina Port. There are big work table in the left side of the room, and a set of sofa in front of the work table. The room look like the working room for people in high position in the company, but there are not any sign of name or position of the room owner can be seen.

The sofa seem really soft and comfortable, but no people ever relaxed enough to feel the comfortable sofa. If the sofa have any consciousness, it will surely feel useless and depressed being there.

The person who sit in the main table, as though have turn to ice sculpture. Releasing cold aura and heavy pressure everywhere, while turning the report page unhurriedly.

His face completely being covered by silver mask, leaving only his unwavering cold eyes. His black as night eyes and as beautiful as gemstone is truly a feast to the eyes, but no one dare to enjoyed them due to his usually clear and still as deep water gaze that seems can saw through one soul, and drown them at once.

And now his gaze is being clouded, like a storm in the ocean, ready to swallow anything that traped in it. If usually anyone will take a quick glance at his beautiful eyes but not dare to see for more than 1 second now they not even dare to raise their head.

This uncertainty is like when waiting for jujge to pass sentences, and they don't even know how they become suspected or if they even wrong.

They keep their head low, and staring at white clean floor, almost make a hole on the spotless innocent floor.

This one hour they mind turn like...

'....Hmmm? something is not right' to...

'What wrong?!! who stupid enough to provoke this ancestor?!!' and then...

'I don't do anything wrong... right?' until...

'It is me!? I am wrong!? I was late this morning, what font I use for the report!?, did I give the right report... right!!?? IS IT MY NEW PERFUME!!??? I AM STINK??!!!😱😱😱'

The sofa and floors: "..."

Honestly they are intelligent people... usually. but the pressure make they trow their IQ outside the window.

Clock keep ticking, and now the honestly just wanted to get into their kness screaming and crying 'I WAS WRONGGG!! Buhu.. buhu..😭😭' to admit whatever unworthy behaviour they have done as long as they remember and get punished altogether.

Well, if they just observed their boss expression a little, which they never dare to do. Having go through hell for a life, they will realize that the storm in his eyes seemed to be far away, as if gazing into something it could never hold, into anything but them, those exactly in front of him.

Till the report in his hand reached its end, an unhurried knock sound come from the door, scared those in the sofa's poor little heart and bring back his mind into the present.

"Mr. Grace" The people inside the room hear a man voice from outside, which is weird because the room is supose to be soundproof.

But they not even realize this because the voice they heard is so pleasant and enchanting, enough to make them dazed, well except the person behind the table whose the man called Mr. Grace, who seems to be forever be indifferent.

"Dismise" This one word that so indifferent without feeling bring the dazed people back and jump for happiness, they quickly leave the room almost running, hoping they can just disappear into thin air.

They not realize two man behind the door, even though the two is really hard to not be noticed with one so beautiful that women become ashamed, and the other so enchanting that he can kill. Well they hated enough they can't 'dismise' faster, where the mood to admire beauties.

The two enter the room only when they can't see the people who walking faster than running, the beautiful one bow down to 'Mr. Grace' respectfully and solemnly greet him "Master".

The enchanting one have already used seeing this, for a moment his eyes can't hide the disgust and ridicule when his gaze sweep the beautiful man. He nonchalantly sit on the sofa and greet him to "Hei boss" while let out a big grin.

"Violet?" 'Mr. Grace' who do not even look at the bowing man from the start, asking the enchanting man with annoyance, clearly dissatisfed with what he saw. His eyebrows behind the mask has almost become one.

"I can't contact her, you can ask him for the rest." the enchanting man shugged, his eyes contain a complex emotion.The beautiful man, seems to don't see any of this and calmly said "Master, my sister is not in convenience condition to meet you, please don't take offence."

Hearing that 'Mr. Grace' mood which have already very bad from the start fall to the bottom, and thats mean you should get away from him as far as you can. But... this two pitiful man can not get away from this inhumane environment because job reason.

'Mr. Grace' finally give the beautiful man a glance, he didn't give the beautiful man a word for a while but staring at him with his indifferent gaze which seems to be hiding a violent storm.

"So here you are Lyndel?" 'Mr. Grace' said calmly. But the meaning of his word is obvious for someone who have working for him for a lifetime like the two man inside the room. 'She can't come, you decided you can replace her?'

Yes the beautiful man inside the room is Lyndel who 2 hour ago still feeding his one and only sister Scarlet. And the indifferent masked man is no other than the legendary Master of these sibling Avellon Grace.
