Chapter 39
Inside the store.
Evelyn turned Vanessa into a model, trying on different kinds of clothes and they all looked good on her.
“Baby girl, let’s buy them all” Evelyn declared and didn’t let her bestie refuse.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Babe, take it as me sending you to investigate in the wolf’s den. Of course, I must equip you right?”
Vanessa sighed and agreed to take the goodies that Evelyn gave her.
Then they headed to an accessory shop to get her adornments and shoes.
By the time they returned home, Vanessa was exhausted unlike Evelyn who was jumping about; lecturing her about the do’s and donts of her new job, etiquette etc. Vanessa couldn’t recall how many times she rolled her eyes and sighed but Evelyn continued her preaching.
“I heard you. But can we please have lunch? I’m close to death here. If this goes on, I’ll just commit suicide” she complained.
“Oh! Then I’ll send you to the eagle’s nest after all dead meat is still meat and so as not to waste your bones, I’ll send them to the wild dogs. I’m sure I can have more connections that way. So go ahead and die. I’ll keep advancing fairy ranks and… show off in front of your casketless and corpseless grave. How’s that? Are you feeling… grateful?” Evelyn asked not forgetting to blink her eyes repeatedly.
Vanessa did not reply immediately. She instead stretched out her right hand and a fire chain appeared, floating in midair. The heat from this chain confirmed that Vanessa had indeed increased her fairy rank to level 2. Evelyn instinctively retreated a bit.
“Continue preaching, bestie. I’m all ears. And when you’re done, I’ll burn you to ashes myself and place them in feces. Go on. If you’re not, then let’s set the table with piping hot delicious food. I can make do with cold food too. So long as it’s delicious.” she played with the fire chain like it was a fine toy, caressing its surface.
“What’s your decision?” Vanessa asked.
“First of all, congratulations for leveling up your fairy powers. I can’t wait to see your new fairy self and I choose a piping hot lunch. Let’s get to the dining room shall we?” Evelyn faked a smile.
Vanessa scoffed and stood up from her seat. The fire chain disappeared and Evelyn sighed.
“I know you can’t wait to push me into the wolf’s den in the name of investigating but please be nicer now that I’m still alive.”
“Ok. I’ll do that when we’re filled up with a mountain of food. Who’s hungrier here?” Evelyn dragged Vanny to eat.
Vanessa rolled her eyes again. Bestie, bestie!

Every one who works here must prove their efficiency with their hands not paper.
So who’s the boss? Take a guess your majesties!
A lavender colored Mercedes Jeep of limited edition parked just at the entrance of Disguise company. The driver ( who was clad in black suit ) got out of the jeep and opened the back seat for his boss.
Son enough, two feet came down the vehicle covered in white converse; the boss soon rivaled his full self and it was shocking to the beholders. Their boss today spotted ripped black jeans, a white t-shirt that seemed to proclaim his solid packs, a transparent blue jacket and a black chain around his neck. Today he had black sunglasses on, a pink bow on his hair and he held a small bag with pictures of barbie as a fairy princess. He then helped a little cutie out; a little beautiful little girl.
No need to guess, they are Jack and Lisa. Lisa looked super cute today as she waved at everyone in contrast to her dad who had a stoic face. He squatted and carried her ( made her sit on his right arm). She looked at her dad’s face and kissed his jaw then flashed a smile that melted the hearts of all.
“Sweetness overdose! This is too much.”
“My fragile heart has been pierced but I want more!”
“What a sweet duo. I didn’t know boss could be like this one day.”
“Yeah, he dressed casually and OMG he’s so damn boiling hot. I’m not worthy to clean his feet.”
“Look at his baby. I wish she was mine.”
“Yeah, me too. She’s smells like peach. A little goddess. I wanna kiss her so badly.”
“Their aura contrasts are simply too overwhelming; Ice and charm. Ahh!”
“Mr Dreamy”
“Marry me, handsome”
They whispered amongst themselves. Jack’s got great hearing and he scoffed but this made many legs tremble with excitement.
“Ah, he scoffed at me. Ah”
“Did you see his lips. I want to bite them.”
Jack walked further to the elevator. His bodyguards waited outside it. When the elevator’s door were closed, they returned to their spot- at the entrance. These people only bow to the boss. No on can make them do so, not even the mayor.
Inside the moving elevator, Lisa kept touching her dad’s face.
“So soft! Daddy, you look so stern. Who knew your face was like this? I must tell mommy later hehe.”
She ignored his frown and continued touching his face and kissed it.
“One day, you will beg mommy to kiss you silly. I can foresee it. Hahaha” she amused herself.
Annoyed, Jack let go of her but instead of falling, she was levitating mid-air.
“Daddy, you are so cruel. I don’t want to be near you. I’m afraid I might contact a disease!” she pouted and flew to the extreme of the elevator.
Jack’s eyes turned blue.
“Hmph! It’s good you recognize that. Carrying you is a burden,” he took out his phone and made a call.
This elevator they took was special. Only he and his appointed guests could use it; people like Nelson Woodley.
elevator led straight to the 20th floor. That’s where his office was. Before now, Lisa had never been to her Dad’s office. Now she had this opportunity, of course she won’t let it go to waste.
