The next morning, Kyle and Sarah had breakfast together in her apartment.

  "You should also start to wear turtlenecks now," Sarah teased with a grin, eyeing the masterpiece she created on Kyle's neck.

  "I will buy as many as I can later. I really don't mind wearing turtlenecks the whole year." Kyle answered before he sipped on his coffee.

  Sarah's mouth twitched realizing she could not win against him when it came to teasing.

  "I will meet Kenzie this morning so we will have to go separately," Sarah informed and Kyle nodded.

  "I will take my leave first. I need to stop by my apartment and change into a turtleneck," he added with a teasing grin. Sarah pouted her lips and mumbled, "We will definitely look suspicious if both of us are wearing turtlenecks. You should avoid marking my neck next time."

  Kyle chuckled and said, "I will keep that in mind later…"

  "Huh? You plan to sleep here again?" Sarah shouted with rounded eyes.

  Kyle scratched his head and whispered, "Hmm, if you want me to sleep here then just tell me… Uhm, you see, living alone can be quite dangerous especially for a beautiful woman like you."

  Sarah pressed her lips and said, "I think having you around is way more dangerous."

  Kyle chuckled as he shamelessly stated, "I'm only dangerous in bed."

  "Go now. You're late already," Sarah murmured, her cheeks blushing.

  "Alright. I will go first. I'll call you after I reach home," Kyle whispered as he stood up. Sarah followed to walk him out the door.

  She creased her forehead when Kyle stopped at the open door. He turned around and gave her a quick peck on her lips. "See you later…"

  Sarah nodded and watched him leave. She closed the door and leaned against it while she subconsciously touched the ring on her necklace. She removed the necklace from her neck and fit the ring on her finger.

  "It looks beautiful," she whispered, staring at the sparkling pear-shaped engagement ring. It fit her perfectly. Kyle was definitely sincere about marrying her, seeing how he had already talked to her mom and dad about his intention of marrying her without even telling her. Kyle only told her about it last night.

  She heaved a sigh, still staring at the ring on her finger. She removed it and wore it back on her neck as a pendant. She definitely had feelings for Kyle but she did not know what was stopping her to accept the marriage.

  She grabbed her bag and left to meet Kenzie in her mansion.

  As soon as she arrived at Chua mansion, Kenzie immediately pulled her inside her study room and handed her an envelope.

  "What's this?" she asked.

  "That envelope arrived this morning…" Kenzie answered and Sarah looked at the photos.

  "This… Isn't this Mr. Tak?" Sarah burst in disbelief.

  "Precisely. Someone seems to be helping me in the shadow and I don't know who…" Kenzie replied.

  She and Sarah were trying to persuade the board members in cahoots with her Aunt Lenny and Mr. Tak, who was one among them was a tough nut to crack.

  Kenzie stared at Sarah intently and asked, "Are you keeping something from me?"

  "Me? Of course not, why?! Wait… Are you suspecting someone? I mean… No one knows about your case…… Oh, wait… except for Daryl. Do you think he is the one who did it?" Sarah mumbled.

  Kenzie pouted her lips and whined, "How I wish it was him… But I don't think he would involve himself in this matter. Besides, I bet he's happy that he can finally breathe now that I'm gone from his side and no one is pestering him. I think it's someone from inside the company who wants to help me out. No one outside the company can get this file easily so I strongly believe it's someone inside."

  Sarah had a smirk on her face as she teased, "Well who knows…"

  "Stop that! Don't you dare give me false hope okay?! Anyway, let's finish off those bastards next week as Mr. Tak is the only one left." Kenzie said.

  "I guess you already miss Daryl very much right? I was really surprised when you asked me if I was hiding something. It was as though you were waiting for me to say that Daryl asked me a favor to keep this a secret from you but he actually monitors your case since you opened up to him about the company problems you are facing now," Sarah teased.

  "He really didn't ask you?" Kenzie asked hopefully.

  Sarah laughed and said, "Hmm. If Daryl had personally asked me to keep it a secret from you then I should honor it. The same goes for you as well, whatever you ask me to keep a secret will remain a secret since my mouth is fully shut…"

  "Hmp! I hate you!" Kenzie scowled.

  Sarah laughed and said, "Well, we can look for that anonymous sender if you want…"

  "I already instructed my security team… Then I suddenly realized that you were the one who referred that team to me…" Kenzie mumbled in squinted eyes, looking suspiciously at Sarah.

  "What? Stop being so paranoid and focus well on your training. In a few more days, you will step inside a battleground and there's no looking back Kenzie. You know that…" Sarah reminded her.

  "Yeah, I know. You'll be surprised to see how I will be transformed in a few days. Geez… I guess I still can't believe this is my fate. You know my dad's condition is improving and is looking more optimistic now. Seeing him fighting for his life like that so that he could have a long life to watch me grow as a mature woman is what's pushing me forward," Kenzie said as she wiped her tears.

  Sarah held Kenzie's hand and said, "You're doing great Kenzie. And your father is very happy seeing you finally stand on your own…"

  "Yes, I can feel it. He is so ready for the surgery but I'm the one who is now more nervous… I know all of us eventually will be back to dust where we came from but I was hoping that God would spare more time for my dad and let him live with me… Just the thought of losing him like this makes my heart break into pieces," Kenzie whispered, suppressing the tears that threatened to fall again.
