"Should I fire Rodrigo?" He asked after a heartbeat and Leonica's answer came almost immediately.
"No!"
He blinked twice in surprise.
"I'll handle Rodrigo, so you just pretend like nothing's wrong. Like we never had this conversation." "Handle as in?"
Pressing her tinger against her lips, she smiled. "That's a secret." With that, she pushed off her father table and walked towards the door, but just as she was passing Melvin, she stopped and much to his surprise, gave him a gentle punch on the shoulder.

"That's none of your business." She shot back

Grace of God, the dinner ended rather peacefully and after saying her Goodbyes to her mother and a stiff greeting to her father, Leonica left.
When she returned to the peaceful silence of her home, she smiled and after refreshing and making herself a smoothie, she wandered towards the drawer in her room, pulling it open to gaze at the red velvet box that held ring that Owen had bought for her. Picking it up, she peeled the lid and examined it once again before taking it out and gently slipping it into her finger.
It fit like a lucky charm!
Raising it up, she watched as it sparkded under the artificial light of her light bulb with a smile.
She liked it and loved it's giver even more.
The rumbling of her phone against the table had her loolding away and a different expression overtoolcher face when she saw Rodrigo's name flashing across her
screen
He was calling far earlier than she expected. Well, what is to be expected of a person who is trying to ditch as quickly as possible?
Grabbing the device off the bed, she swiped right on the answer Icon and pressed the phone to her ear
"Hello Mr. Rodrigo, you have an awful habit of calling at random times."
"I apologize, Mrs. Smith, but I promised to contact you as soon as I had the company papers and I do. So, shall we proceed with the business deal? How about set a meeting for tomorrow?"
