Chapter 9

"I'm sorry, Kia..." Francis pouted his lips, trying his best to act like a cute pup. Trying his best to make his best to woo me.

I rolled my eyes on him, crossing my hands on my chest. "I'm facing a big problem right now all because of your men!" I tried to sound like I'm mad but I am not really mad at all.

I don't have the time to be mad anymore. I just have to think of ways on how to deal with my problems instead of just getting mad here.

I sat on the sofa before I removed my shades. Francis is in front of me as he puts some documents in front of me.

"I want to calm you down so I immediately investigated this." He said in a firm voice before he opens the folder. "Leah is a daughter of a royal guard from the palace, she's also been with Prince Jackson ever since she was a child. She's from a small family and her only resources come from showbiz." He said.

He's trying to sound proud and as if he really helped me a lot. I looked at him with a straight face. I heard Addison clearing her throat.

"We already know that, Francis..." it was Addison who said that. She looks at Francis before she showed a wry smile, trying not to show any awkwardness but it's really awkward right now.

"Huh?" That's the only reaction from Francis.

I rolled my eyes once again. I went here to scold him but I think it's better if I just use him to help me with plans regarding making Leah fall down into pieces.

"And I thought I searched something good," he scoffs a bit and sat down beside Addison, pushing her slightly so he could fit the couch we're sitting right now.

"Aw," I groan a bit. We're fond of each other since the three of us grew up together.

Although I am the daughter of their boss and sometimes they really respect me as one of their bosses. Sometimes they really act like this too, clingy and comfortable around me.

"What can I do to make up with you?" Francis asked in a small voice. He's really trying his best to make him look and sound cute. I don't know how many times I rolled my eyes already but I rolled it again because I'm so done with Francis acting all cute all the time.

He's the chief of this agency and everyone is scared of him because they all think that he's intimidating or something. But the truth is, Francis is a big baby.

He's 6'4 and still acts like he's a toddler.

"Good question," I said.

"Get away from me Francis," Addison whined, trying to push Francis away from him but he just keeps snuggling her.

"What is it, Kia?" Said Francis while his chin is resting on Addison's shoulder blade.

"I want you to make some research inside the showbiz industry. I want you to know whom we can use and pay to bring Leah down." I said before a smirk form into my lips.

Addison and Francis both look at me. I look back at them and raised my eyebrows to them. "What? That's been my plan ever since." I said and shrieks a bit.

"But why do you need to make some investigation? You can just easily ask your parents to..." I cut Francis from speaking by slamming the folder to his face. But slightly only, I'm not a fan of harm or whatsoever.

"Aw!" He whines at me and I just sat properly.

"I realized that I can't ask my parents about this because I don't want them to be included in my schemes. And I don't think my mother would even allow my father to help me because of the chaos I have caused." I explained to them.

That's the truth.

If I were myself then, I'd definitely gonna whine the whole day just so I could make my parents say yes to me but I realized that it will always not work if I use my parent's power and connection every time.

The reason why I come into this mess is that I asked my father to help me become the personal assistant of Jackson. I let him use his connections just so I can get what I want. That's why I cannot be just mad at their accusations to me that I used my family's power to get what I want.

A spoiled brat!

That's why I should just keep this all to myself. To use my connections alone.

I can't always just depend on them.

And I know my mother would really oppose it even if my father would agree to me. That's how everything works inside our house. I know my father would yes to me but I will feel bad if that's going to happen.

"Do what I am telling you to do or I'm not going to forgive you." I hissed at him and he just looks at me with puppy eyes.

"What about me?" I asked Addison when she realized that she's not getting mentioned to our talk. I turned my look at her and smiled. "Well, you'll be by my side. We're going to stalk Jackson today!" I excitedly said to her.

She looks at me with disbelief in her eyes and she sighed.

"Why would you stalk your jerk ex-boyfriend?" She looks at me with a straight face and sighed.

"Don't you get it?" I asked back.

I'm planning to stalk Jackson right now to know what's up to now that Prince Jacques is currently missing from his watch.

If he's investigating right now. I wonder if he is suspecting me.

I'm planning to talk to Jackson and pretend that I'm going to fix things with him. But I also don't think it will work since he's a jerk.

"I need to know what he's doing right now," I said and smiled.

I want to know if he's getting stress already. I think this is an act of better revenge, he's still suffering.
