Cohen's PoV

"Tessie."

/Yes Sir. Cohen?/

"Gather some members of Black Rose Moon at Midnight Moon Bar."

/Okay Sir./ I ended the call as soon as I said that. I avert my gaze outside the window of the car and think on how I would torture the bastard informant who gave us wrong information.

"Sir, we have already arrived at your building." I nodded and got outside, I fixed my attire before walking. Since I'm away for a week I wonder what they've been doing in the company. I know Tessie's the one handling the company while I'm gone, updating me each day what happened but of course, I also want to see in my own eyes what they've been doing here.

As soon as I stepped inside the building, they immediately stopped whatever they were doing to pay respect to me, nothing new to me so I just went straight to my office seeing Tessie waiting for me at the door.

"Sir, I already informed them and they will head there in the evening." She said while walking behind my back.

"Good." I said as I sat down on my swivel chair and checked the papers I left.

Great, Tessie did an excellent job managing the company while I'm gone, I should give her some vacation days after we find the informant.

Hours passed by and I'm done checking some papers.

"Do I have any meetings?" I asked as I checked my phone.

"Yes sir, you have a meeting with Sir. Embay at 3:00 p.m." I look at my clock and it's still 11:00 a.m, maybe I should grab a lunch with Neo before the meeting.

"Alright, I'll head home first, call me before the meeting start." I said as I stood up and grabbed my phone.

"Noted Sir, I will." Sabay yuko ni Tessi at pinagbuksan ako ng pinto.

I wonder what's Neo doing right now, since pinagpahinga ko muna ito ngayon dahil baka pagod pa sa biyahe namin galing England.

Habang palabas ng building ay nakasalubong ko si Reiner, I wonder what's this guy doing here.

"What are you doing here?" I asked as I stop on my tracks. Napatigil din ito at hinarap ako.

"Can't I visit you here?" Napangisi naman ako sa nasabi niya.

"Visiting me or visiting someone else?" He chuckled.

"Whatever Ryder. Oh, by the way, where you going?"

"Going home for a lunch." Kita ko ang pagtaas ng kilay nito sa nasabi ko at biglang ngumisi.

"I see, first time going home for a lunch huh, I wonder what's your reason is." He gave me some meaningful look before going away. I just shrug him off before heading to my car.

While on our way home may nadaanan kaming dessert shop, I think for a while since I wonder if Neo will like sweet stuffs. Nag-park muna ako bago punasok sa shop.

"Good day Sir! How may I help you?" I wander my eyes checking each dessert I see. Hmm... I wonder what Neo will like here.

"What's the most popular dessert here?" The lady smiled as she get something at her drawer, may inilagay siya sa taas ng lamesa at may tinuro.

"This one sir, its very popular among girls." I look at the photo she pointed at and its Gâteau fondant au chocolat a dark and rich cake. Will Neo like this?

"I'll get one of that, is there anything else?" She pointed at something again, "This Alfajores Sir, ladies love this because it melt in their mouth and filled with dulce de leche and rolled in desiccated coconut." I nod as she explained that, sounds good indeed.
