Keira tried her best to stay put as Zach wanted her to do. ”Geez, I'm furious Cobra! What should I do?” she exclaimed as she drank the fresh fruit shake she had asked Cobra to buy while waiting inside the mini garden of their floor at Cooper Network building.
”Hmm, just follow the General's advice Mrs. Liu, that way you and your twins will be safe. Besides, the General is very much capable of protecting himself plus your father will make sure he won't be harmed in any way.” Cobra tried to convince her but was met with only as long deep sigh of Keira followed by a long silent pause.
”Cobra, will you do me a favor?” Keira broke the silence and asked after a few minutes. Cobra knew there won't be any simple words coming out of her mouth and his throat suddenly felt dry and he gulped thinking that the favor Mrs. Liu would ask might cause some trouble. It took him a while before answering. ”What is it Mrs. Liu?” asked Cobra with hesitation that made Keira laugh.
”Make sure you monitor me and always keep reminding me to keep my promises because I'm really stubborn and I'm afraid I might break my promise to Zach, and if such time comes…” murmured Keira with a straight face. She was no longer alone because as Zach said she should consider their twins in her body. Keira knew herself and how stubborn she could be especially when it comes to Zach's safety.
”I got you Mrs. Liu.” Cobra answered with full of conviction.

At Liu Group Building
Megan was smiling widely seeing the cup of tea she made was already empty. ”Thanks Megan the tea was nice,” Zach complemented with a smile and dismissed her. She saw assistant Dave arrive with the president's lunch.
”If you want you can go and eat lunch outside and I will take care of serving lunch to the president. I have my own lunch already packed, so I won't be going out.” offered Megan with her sweetest smile.
”Oh that's really nice of you Megan. I will leave it to you then.” said assistant Dave and gave Megan the paperbag. Four more days… She needed just four more days…
As soon as assistant Dave left, Megan entered the president's room and she smiled seeing him passed out with his head on the table. She looked at her watch to wait further for him to become conscious again.
She looked around Zach's office and put some small chips in every corner of the office. In four days she must complete the task at hand.
After a few more minutes, Zach finally awakened and the first person he saw was Megan smiling at him. ”Did I fall asleep again?” he asked as he straightened his back and massaged his nape.
”Yes you did… I was about to prepare your lunch.” Megan said smiling as she arranged the food from the paper bad on Zach's table. Zach watched Megan's every move and suddenly grabbed her wrist when he noticed something.
”What's this?” he asked as he gently touched the mark on her wrist.
”Oh this! This is just a tattoo.” Megan answered casually
”Yeah… It looks like a cyclone…” commented Zach with curiosity
Megan laughed and said, ”Yes it is a cyclone.”
”That's rare… Does it signify something specific? I know a lot of women like to get tattoos but most of them prefer more of feminine designs. This one on your wrist seems a little off. This tattoo will best suit me or males.” said Zach as he let go of Megan's wrist.
”Hmm, yeah, this tattoo signifies something special, but I will tell you about it later,” said Megan. ”There you can eat now,” she said smiling and was about to leave when Zach grabbed her wrist once more.
Megan's lips curved upward before she turned her head and said, ”Yes?”
”Hmm, eat with me.” said Zach simply and Megan obliged. The hypnotic drug was taking effect and Megan was on cloud nine at that moment..
