Brother...?

Dylan adjusted his glasses and shook his head. "What's her problem?" He wondered.

He took one last look at her door before entering into his apartment.

"Home sweet home" He smiled broadly and took off his tie.

Dylan moved to one of the adjoining doors and opened it, which exposed his gigantic and beautiful dressing room. It has various brands of clothing, from suits to designed and casual wears.

There were also neck ties, bow ties, shoes, wristwatches and all of such sort. He stood at the center of the room and watched everything before him. It was indeed a marvelous sight.

Chloe slurped the cold noodles from the cup and quickly drank water when she tasted how chilly it was.

"Goodness" She exclaimed.

"By the way though…" Chloe whispered to herself after remembering who she saw earlier. "What's my CEO doing here? Why…Why" She asked herself.

"Could he be living here? He had better not or I'll be busted. I'll be in deep shît, I tell you" She sighed deeply.

"If he's really living here, I need to be extra careful or else, I don't even want to think about it"

THE NEXT DAY×MORNING

Chloe exhaled and inhaled deeply before slowly opening her door. After peering and seeing the coast was indeed clear, she smiled to herself and came out from the room. She quickly locked the door and ran to the elevator.

"Wait please!" She shouted, seeing the elevator was closing already.

The person in there was kind enough to open it right up, which enabled Chloe to enter.

"Thank you" Chloe smiled and took her gaze to him. However, her smile soon disappeared, seeing it was none other than her CEO.

"Oh shît" She thought and quickly covered her sweaty face with her long hair.

Dylan, who was by her side, kept looking at the weird woman. "What's wrong with her now?" He thought.

Chloe was very relieved when the elevator opened. She sped off like flash, leaving Dylan in awe.

"Gosh. She's indeed a strange woman" He thought, shaking his head.

Dylan went out and entered his Bugatti, which he drove off with. Chloe, who had been hiding in a corner, sighed in relief and came out.

"I hope he didn't recognize me" She whispered and bit her lip.

Chloe looked at her wristwatch and gasped loudly. "I'm fûcking late!" She thought and flagged down a taxi.

*

"Miss Ariel?" Chloe heard a familiar voice and turned back. It was Ellen. Chloe smiled at her.

"The CEO is here already" Ellen reported.

"Yeah, I know. Does that make me late?" Chloe asked.

"Not really. It's still 7am… but how did you know?" Ellen asked slowly.

Chloe blinked her eyes fast. "Uh… I…I saw his car outside, yeah! His Bugatti" She laughed nervously.

Ellen looked confused. She shook her head and said; "I don't think so. He already left with his car. He went to see his sister"

Chloe felt stupid. "Oh, I see"

"How did you know he brought a Bugatti today? You didn't see it outside, did you? You are acting suspicious, Chloe" Ellen smirked and Chloe faked a cough.

"I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, On my way to work here, I saw him in his car. He was leaving"

"Oh" Ellen mouthed. "Anyway, He emailed you based on his schedule this week, and he wants you to go through it. And also, there are paperwork he left on his desk, He said you should shred them at the machine"

"Okay, I will" Chloe said and went to her counter. She inhaled deeply and dropped her head on the desk. In less than a minute, she raised her head up.

"He went to see his sister? Why? Did anything happen?" She thought.

Chloe soon heard her phone ring, and she checked it out. It was an unknown number. After much hesitation, she finally accepted the call.

"Hello?" She said.

"Hello, Chloe" The voice said at the other end.

"Yes, this is Chloe. Who am I speaking with, please?" She asked.

"This is Clover. I've been trying to reach Ariel, but she isn't picking my calls" He said worriedly. "She never came to that date either" He further explained, and she bit her bottom lip.

"Actually, Ariel is... You know what, I will explain later, I promise. I'm quite busy now"

"Sure" Clover said and hung up.

Chloe sighed and kept her phone into her purse. "I guess he really does cares" She thought.

*

The maids and all household workers who saw an angry Dylan walking in bowed in respect. He totally ignored their greetings and walked straight to his mother's room.

"Where's Danielle?" He asked.

His mother sighed deeply and faced him. She was busy with her manicure.

"Leave" She ordered the maid and bowed and left.

"What's it again?" She inquired.

"Danielle pleaded with me yesterday to give her my debit card. I just saw the debit alert this morning. She never told me she would take this much. Damn, I'm pissed right now"

Mrs. McCoy scoffed. "C'mon, don't act like that. She's your sister and even a billion dollar won't change anything. You're a billionaire after all"

"Well, she collected that much without my awareness and I ought to know how she spent that that money"

"Calm down, son"

"Mum, tell me where she is, please" He said with a hoarse voice.

"Alright then. She's at the pool" Mrs. McCoy rolled her eyes. Dylan nodded and left immediately.

"Goodness. What's his problem?" She thought.

*

Dylan went upstairs and met Danielle on a swimming trunk inside the pool. She had sunglasses on, and she was holding a glass of champagne. Two of her old friends were with her, named Sasha and Jenny.

Jenny who's Asian and Korean by nationality has this knack for calling guys, brothers especially when she is familiar with them.

"Huhn! Isn't that your brother" Sasha whispered to Danielle who took her gaze to where Dylan was standing staring at the girls. She smiled at him.

Meanwhile, Dylan couldn't recognize any of the girls who seemed to be staring at him. Finding Danielle had this point was going to be hard.

"Brother!" He heard a joyful squeal.

"Danielle?" He whispered and came closer to the bubbly human at the center, who had her arm raised.
