The Problem

Sophie went outside as she received a message from her subordinates, that there are some movements from her enemies. She did not know whether she could face her enemies or not. But she had to take her revenge. She went to the beach and sat down on a rock as she thought about her life.

Her life was filled with so many obstacles, at times, she felt that suicide would be best. But she couldn't kill herself, for if she killed herself, her mom would have to suffer. She would not be able to leave her mom in this condition and leave. She walked along the beach for a long while and tears could be seen falling non-stop from her eyes. She was standing at the crossroad of her life. She did not know what to choose, what to do. It was raining, and she was completely drenched. The sound of the sea waves clashing and the sound of the rain was like a melody to her. It calmed her down. The rain drops continuously fell and overshadowed the tears falling from her eyes. Her gloomy mood resonated with that of the nature.

After a long while, she regained her senses, and then went to her personal house, here in this island, took a shower and then changed into another dress before heading out to the construction site. All the constructions going on here was under Scarlett Inc. She discovered this island by chance, and from then, this is the training site which both C and she herself used previously. After setting up Scarlett Inc., she bought this island. So this is her private island registered under Scarlett Inc.

On the way to the construction site, she felt very hungry, so she stopped by a nearest restaurant. She was an absolute foodie, and she loved various delicacies. She went to the restaurant and ordered a dish of Korean fried chicken. She loved the taste of this dish in this restaurant. It was hot, spicy and extremely delicious. She really loved it. The walls of the restaurant was made of glass. She sat at one corner of the restaurant and looked out of the glass wall. Few people were playing on the beach. She smiled and slowly put the fried chicken in her mouth. She chewed it slowly, and it melted in her mouth slowly. She savored the taste of her food and she really loved the taste of it. She was lost in thought, and after completing the dish, she ordered another.

She was eating, when a person arrived in front of her and sat down, she raised her head in astonishment.

"You!"

"How have you been Lisa?"

"Well. And you, Henry?" She nodded her head in acknowledgement.

Henry Rodriguez was the CEO of a well known ONGC. He usually comes to the sea and to this island. As he was one of the acquaintances, so, he had the pass to enter this private island.

"Did you come with another of your girlfriends?"

"Oh No!", Henry exclaimed dramatically, with his hands over his chest and again said, "How could you accuse me like that?"

Lisa rolled her eyes at his dramatic attitude, and then said, "That is impossible."

"I came alone, okay?" He rolled his eyes and then said with a glint in his eyes, "Ummm…. Do you know about what is happening at the Atkins family?"

"Mmm. I do."

"Will you attend the event?", he hesitated before asking.

"I'm not too sure."

"Okay. If you go, can we go together?"

"Absolutely not."

"Why?"

"I don't want to die soon."

"What has this got to do with you dying soon?"

"Your girlfriends would get jealous and might kill me. I don't want others to hate me so much."

He rolled his eyes at her, but let go of the topic and spoke about business. They were happily chatting when she got a phone call again.
