In the sky, a bright moon outshone all the stars. A black convertible Porsche is galloping on the empty road.
Strong winds ruffled the long hair of the woman in the driver's seat. She looked as cool as the Moon Goddess.
Marie sat on in the co-pilot and looked at the woman with admiring eyes.
A man with a story was fascinating, and so was a woman. The woman just rescued Marie like a savior sent by God. Marie was curious about her now.
"Who are you?"
"Why did you save me?"
"Where did you buy your leather jacket? It looks so cool!"
Marie couldn't stop asking questions like a baby as soon as she got in the car.
However, as many questions as she had asked, none of them had been answered yet. She was getting tired of being ignored. Just by then, the woman answered casually, "I saved you for the sake of Leo."
She wanted to stop Marie from asking more questions with that answer, which only made Marie more curious.
Marie stared at her with great interest and asked, "You know my brother-in-law?"
"Brother-in-law?"
In a surprise, the woman looked at Marie and asked, "Is he married?"
"Yes."
Marie didn't realize that she had exposed Leo's secret.
"Really..."
The woman's face changed, and she looked disappointed. Moments later, she smiled brightly, "Send my congrats to him if you have the opportunity."
There seemed to be a story behind that smile.
There were upsetness, disappointments, blessings, happiness, and... reminiscences!
She had mixed feelings.
Marie was stunned. As a woman, her intuition told her that the woman and Leo had a history.
She didn't ask much, and after a while, they arrived at the International Commerce Center.
"Get out of the car," the woman ordered.
Marie still wanted to ask, but the woman glared at her and scared his questions back. She got out of the car reluctantly.
The woman hit the gas and drove away. She was as unrestrained as when she came.
Lydia hugged Marie as soon as they walked into the President's Office. Lydia asked, "Marie, are you alright?"
"Lydia!"
Marie revealed his true feelings after going through the disaster. She hugged Lydia tightly.
It hadn't been long before Leo was back and saw them hugging each other. He finally felt at ease.
"Wait a minute, Leo!"
Marie reacted fast and stopped Leo, "I need to ask you something."
Leo seemed to have realized something. His eyes were avoiding contact with Lydia's.
Lydia saw what he was doing and seemed quite confused.
After she got out of the office with Leo, she asked with a prying face, "What does the woman has to do with you?"
Leo looked at her and said, "You met her?"
"Yeah, she's so cool, but she's a bit distant."
Leo fell in silence. He looked out of the window. Marie didn't know what was going on in his mind.
After a long time, he said in a low voice, "She's Sharon Bell, my sister-in-law."
Marie opened her eyes widely and almost dropped her jaw.
"Promise me not to tell Lydia about it."
Leo looked seriously at Marie and whispered.
"Okay, I will..."
Marie stuck out her tongue and put on a bitter face. She felt lucky that she hadn't mentioned this to Lydia, or she might have gotten Leo in trouble.
Marie would be a fool to haven't told the woman's admiration towards Leo; however, she turned out to be his sister-in-law...
A smile emerged on Leo's face. He then said, "Go back with Lydia later."
Marie paused and asked, "Aren't you going with us?"
Leo shook his head. "I've got other things to do."
He said as he walked into the elevator.
As the elevator went down layer by layer, the smile on Leo's face had completely disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look.
A Rolls-Royce was parked downstairs, and Nadine had been waiting for a long time.
Leo nodded at her and opened the trunk. A man was lying in there, body covered with cuts. It was Peter.
"Sharon, how can I refuse such a big gift from you?"
