18 it's time for payback

Leo was a bit taken back at the girl confident but still manage to compose himself.

as he was about to pull his cloth, he look up to see Clara holding her mobile phone, with the back facing him.

what are you doing ? he asked halting his process of pulling his cloth.

oh! I am sure you wouldn't mind me taking videos as well, am sure you would want to see how the whole world will also react to your nakedness. Clara reply him in a mocking tone.

and what would you gain from that? Leo asked feeling like there is more to what Clara said.

at least I will be getting justice for those you sacked for no valid reason and those you took advantage of.

Leo finally realised he was being a jerk, he fired her on her first day at work, if she has received a month salary, he might have the gut to protest since he is paying them double the normal salary, but Clara did not receive a penny,

after, he appeared at her doorstep and ask for her help and she helped him, and now he's angry all because she said she wouldn't bat an eye at his nakedness, it's possible she said that because of the stress she went through since the other night because of him,

he should be grateful, yet he's being arrogant.

seeing that Leo wouldn't go ahead with the cloth removal, she drop her phone on the table and stood up.

I wanted to ask you to sleep more while i take a nap, but seeing how energetic you are just now, i take it back

go and wash up, we will talk after I wake up, she said and walk toward Sonya's bed.

am sorry, and thank you, Leo said making Clara halt in her step and turn back to face him.

it must have been hard on you since last night, am sorry for the disturbance and for ordering for your removal at work.

the only word that went into Clara's brain was, 'hard on you since last night'

about the sorry part, she knew she can't bear to hate him, at least for now, the least she can do is get angry at him.

it seem you are mistaken again, this is your third day here, she replied.

what! you haven't slept for the past two days?

Leo asked in shock.

yes, Clara replied looking indifferent

am so sorry, and thanks for not calling the ambulance, rest well, I won't disturb, Leo quickly apologise feeling embarrassed.

but what supprise him most was how Clara look this beautiful after staying up for that long, there is no sign of tiredness on her face at all.

wait! that's right, "hospital" why didn't I think of that, Clara thought after listening to Leo's word, which annoy her the more she hear it.

if she has called the ambulance and he was taken to the hospital, she wouldn't go through all she went through, and when Leo get better she can still befriend him, since he would feel gratitude toward her and she would stick to the opportunity and achieve her aim,

damn it, am such an idiot, do I even have the right to be angry at him? she was deep in her thought, while Leo was bewitched by her beauty once again

how can she remain so beautiful after not sleeping for two days, he thought looking astonished.

a while later, Clara was deep in slumber, while Leo was charging his phone, which he has went to retrieve from his car, he went to take his bath, after taking his bath, he checked the percentage of his phone battery before disconnecting the charger and dialled Mick' s number.

hello!

master is that you? are you okay? where are you? Mick began throwing questions upon questions at him not giving him chance to retaliate.

hello! hello! hello!, Mick glance at his phone and see that the call has really been disconnected.

the phone ring again and he picked it, hello!, this time he calm down and listen.

how do you expect me to answer those questions all at once, am sorry for worrying you, am all right. Leo said

where are you? I will come over at once. Mick said

don't worry yourself, I should be back today or latest tomorrow morning, you have to do something for me.

what is that?

gather the guards and instruct them to get serious with their training, tell them to be ready, we will be making our moves very soon.

Leonard! what are you saying? what if he expose your health to the world, you will loose the company to him.

just do as I said, it's time for payback, I will explain to you when i reach home tomorrow.

ok, oh wait! he called me and ask why you are not at work, I told him you are not feeling too well but he doesn't seem to believe me, and ask to speak with you

I will give him a call. Leo said and disconnect the call.
