  "There's a lot of women, Hunt! If you want, I'll introduce you to my friends. Just not with that b*tch!"-Tiffany 

HUNTER's POV

I took a deep breath as I stared at the tall glass building in front of me. I was having a second thought if I would really go inside and talk to him. Sh*t!

I turned my back and was about to go back to my car when I suddenly remembered the reason I came here. I swore under my breath and faced the building again. I heaved a sigh before I strode my way to the lobby.

I must admit, even the lobby looked spotless and beautiful. I stared at the decorations from the floor up to the high ceiling. Damn! Stop scrutinizing his building and just go to him!

I went to the information area and the woman there automatically smiled at me.

"Good morning, sir. How may I help you?" I remained emotionless.

"I need to talk to your boss. Is he in?"

"Sorry sir but Mr. N is on leave right now. Do you have an appointment with him?" I shook my head.

"No. I don't have an appointment. Do you know where he could be right now? I just really need to discuss something important with him"

"Sorry sir, but I can't give you any information about that. If you want, you can make an appointment to his EA so that if he would comeback, you can come and talk to him" I gritted my teeth in irritation.

"No, it's okay. Thanks" I said and turned my back on her then strode my way outside. Guess I had no choice than to wait for him to come back. I know where he stays right now but going to his house was the last thing that I wanted to do.

Upon reaching where I parked my car, I went inside and drove off. It's been 2 days since I arrived here in the USA but I haven't had the time to go and talk to Regan because I was with my sister Tiffany; even though she's busy too.

When I arrived at my sister's house, I parked my car and then went inside. I was about to go in her room to check on her when I saw her at the living room with a blonde woman. She looked beautiful and sophisticated but something's off with her.

"So, are you going to help me with my plans?" I heard the woman asked Tiffany.

"Of course. I can't wait to give that woman a lesson" My eyebrows furrowed. Tiffany looked menacing while the blonde woman was smirking.

I cleared my throat to get their attention and I saw how stunned Tiffany was.

"H-Hunt? How long have you been there?" She even stuttered which made me confuse.

"Actually, I just arrived. Who's she?" Tiffany cleared her throat.

"This is Rosie. She's...one of my classmates during college. Rosie, this is my brother, Hunter" Rosie smiled at me seductively and stood up.

"Nice to meet you, Hunter. I didn't know that Tiffany has a handsome brother" She said and extended her hand for a handshake and I accepted it.

"It's nice meeting you too, Rosie. It looks like you're discussing something important. I'll just go upstairs" I said. I threw them a glance before I turned my back on them. They looked weird. I shook my head to shoo any suspicion towards them and just went upstairs, to the room that I'm currently occupying.

I was about to take off my shirt when my phone rang.

"Hello"

"Hunt, I have an unfortunate news for you my man" Stephen said on the other line.

"What do you mean?"

"Angela isn't in the USA anymore. She went home to France the other day" I swore under my breath upon hearing it. I sent someone to watch her from the moment she stepped out of my property in Greece that's why I knew that she went to her friend's place upon leaving me.

The person I sent to watch her continued following her until she went back to the USA. I thought she would stay with Regan so I instructed the person I sent to go back and stop following her. I just wanted to make sure that she would arrive to her destination safe and sound.

Now, I realized that it was a bad idea to stop my spy from following her because she went back to France without my knowledge. Damn it!

"Do you know where she's staying at right now?" I asked.

"Of course. This is Stephen you're talking to, my man. I'll just send you the details" I almost rolled my eyes because of how overconfident he is.

"Okay. I'll wait for it. By the way, I already sent you my payment the usual way" He chuckled.

"Okay, Hunt. Just call me if you need my service again"

"Okay" I answered and ended the call.

If it's possible, I wanted to fly to France right now but I can't just take off just like that without talking to Tiffany. The other day when I arrived here, she was always busy that we didn't have time to talk to each other. Now that she's home, I'll use this as an opportunity to discuss something with her.

After half an hour or so, I was about to go down to check if Rosie already left when someone knocked at the door.

"Come in" I said. The door opened and Tiffany came in.

"Can I talk to you, Hunt?"

"Nice timing. I need to talk to you too" I said in a serious tone. She sat on the single sofa at the corner of the room while staring at me.

"Why are you here, Hunt? I mean, don't get me wrong. I want to see you too but I thought you would never come here anymore because papa already disowned me" I saw the hunt of pain in her eyes.

"What are you talking about? Aaliyah came here because she's worried about you and I came here because I feel the same. Now tell me, is it really true that papa disowned you because you're a drug addict? That you were the one who wronged Regan that's why he divorced you?" She looked the other way and couldn't meet my eyes.

"I-I don't know what you're talking about. That article is nonsense! They're just trying to destroy our reputation and name. Don't tell me, you believe them?" She asked sullenly.

"Honestly, I don't know anymore, Tiff. But I hope that papa is wrong about you taking drugs while pregnant that's why you had a miscarriage. I just hope that you didn't do that because I don't know what I will do if that happens" She looked at me with disbelief.

"Where did you hear that? That wasn't in the article!"

"I heard it from papa. You know what, Tiff? I hurt the woman I love because of my anger towards her brother so please tell me that those things were just lies" She furrowed at me.

"What do you mean by that? Who's that woman you're referring to?"

"Angelique Novell" She shook her head.

"No! You're lying, Hunt! You know what Regan did to me in the past!" She yelled.

"I know and I haven't forgotten about it but that has nothing to do with my relationship with Angela; I love her, Tiff that's why I am here, talking to you now to make sure that all those things in the article and the things that papa told me weren't true because I wouldn't forgive you and myself if those things were true"

"There's a lot of women, Hunt! If you want, I'll introduce you to my friends. Just not with that b*tch!" My eyes squinted in anger upon hearing that.

"Don't you dare call her that, Tiff! She's not like that. She's a decent woman and I love her. Anyway, now that I heard what I wanted to hear from you, I will be flying to France as soon as possible but not after I talk to Regan" Her eyes widened.

"N-No! Don't talk to him"

"What? I need to talk to him to discuss about something" I said and I saw the fear that flashed through her eyes.

"A-As far as I know, Regan is in a vacation right now so you won't be able to get a hold of him until he comes back. Knowing him, he's happy right now because his long lost lover came back" I saw the glint of pain and hatred in her eyes as she said those words bitterly. I suddenly felt bad for her.

"Don't tell me you still love him?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Love? Hmm...I don't know, Hunt. But one thing is for sure. I hate him because of what he did to me" I stood up and approach her when I noticed that she was about to burst into tears. I comforted her by hugging her.

"Stop it. Don't waste your tears for someone like him. He's not worth it" She hugged me back while sobbing. My anger towards Regan liven again because I could still see how much hurt Tiff is. I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down.

We stayed like that until she finally calmed down.

"Hunt, sorry but I just remembered. I saw an article on the internet last night. It's about Angelique" She typed something on her phone before she handed it to me. I reluctantly took it from her and read the article she was talking about.

Looks like love is in the air again for these ex-lovers. Our source spotted Angelique Novell together with her ex-boyfriend Adrien Clément dining in a restaurant. They looked cozy together and we're not going to be surprised if one day they'll admit that they'll back together again....

My hand tightened around the cellphone I was holding as I finished reading the article. There was even a picture of them while dining at the said restaurant. Jealousy was slowly eating out my rationale thinking.

"See, Hunt? She's not worth it. Just forget about her and go back to Greece. I know papa is mad now because you're here. What about the company? You know you're the only one he trusts in managing it"

"No, Tiff. I won't be going back to Greece without taking back what's mine" I said and gave back her phone, then I stood up.

"Where are you going?" She asked confusedly and followed me.

"Looks like I'm going to fly to France now without talking to Regan first" I said while opening my suitcase to get something to wear. I then went to the bathroom without hearing my sister's response. While I was under the shower, the image of Angela and her ex kept on replaying in my mind.

"Damn it!" I shouted in frustration then punched the shower wall in anger. I won't let anyone have what's mine! Wait for me, baby, please...

I stopped my car in front of a huge mansion and I couldn't help but to get amazed of how beautifully made the mansion was. The house was a little bit far from the tall iron gate. I didn't know how long I've been standing there, thinking of what to do and say if I saw Angela face to face. I have a lot of things I want to tell her but I'm not sure if she will listen to me this time or not.

I was about to press the buzzer when a car stopped in front of the gate. Then a sandy brown haired woman came out of the car. She's wearing dark shades. Her long wavy hair is beautifully cascading behind her. She's wearing a short shorts and a crop top. She looked like a model.

"Excusé-moi. Pourquoi vous êtes devant chez moi? Est-ce que vous avez besoin quelque chose?" I couldn't help but to flinch. I didn't understand anything at all!

I scratched my head and cleared my throat.

"S-Sorry but I don't speak French" Her brows knitted together.

"I said, why are you here in front of my house? Do you need anything?" I sighed in relief because she speaks English.

"Ahm. I'm Hunter Hatzis. I am here to see, Angelique. Is she here?" She stared at me intently.

"Hatzis?"

"Yes" She looked at me from head to toe which made me feel a little bit uncomfortable. She even removed her sunglasses and her beautiful blue eyes scrutinized me.

"What do you need from my sister?" Sister?

Now I know why she kinda looked like Angela. I gulped inaudibly before I met her gaze.

"I need to talk to her. It's important. Please, can you tell her that Hunter Hatzis is here?" Her forehead was still crinkled. She typed something on her phone before she sighed.

"Get in" I gaped at her.

"I searched for your name on the internet and I was right. You're Tiffany's brother, right? I don't know why you want to talk to my sister but I want to confirm something" I just nodded my head and get inside her car. She pressed the small remote control she's holding and the gate opened.

Upon parking her car, we got out together. I just followed her quietly while observing every corner of the property I am seeing.

If our ancestral house in Greece was an old style mansion, the Novell's were very much modern. They probably loved flowers because there are lots of flowering plants around. When we entered the main door, I quickly looked around the house, hoping to get a glimpse of the one I love.

It's been more than two weeks since I last saw her and I really missed her so much.

"Just sit and make yourself comfortable. I'll just check my sister's room if she's there" I nodded my head and thanked her. After a minute or so, a maid approached me and asked me what I prefer to drink of eat but I declined politely. I felt so anxious and I was sweating coldly. I just hope against hope that she would come and face me.

This was the first time I felt this way; unsure of what to do.

My siblings and I grew up brave and strong because that's what our parents taught us. We aren't showy of what we really feel. I didn't know how to be sweet to a person because I never learned that nor saw it from my parents but that changed when I met Angela. She was the only person I let to see the sweet and affectionate me.

But now, I felt so tense and I was silently praying that she would give me another chance to explain my side and enter her life again. I clasped my hands together and bowed my head. My heart was beating so hard, it's crazy.

I remained in that position for a minute or so before I heard footsteps coming closer. I slowly tilted up my head and the view took my breath away. She's wearing a spaghetti strap shirt and shorts. Her hair is freely dangling on her back as she walks. My lips parted. I stood up and was about to approached her and hug her when I noticed how cold her eyes were while staring at me.

"What are you doing here?" She asked me with a stoic face. She stopped at least two meters away from me.

I was about to open my mouth and answer her when a maid came out of nowhere and told Angela that she has a visitor. I looked at the visitor she was talking about when I suddenly felt the urge to punch someone. A familiar guy was standing in front of us with a bouquet in his hands. Then realization hit me, this was the guy together with Angela in the article I read. Her ex! 

****

What do you think? Will Hunter make Angela listen to him now that her ex arrived?
