“All right Maddox, let’s make you something!” La exhaled as they walked into the apartment.


    “Woof!” Maddox barked and immediately ran off as if he saw someone. La walked slowly into the sitting room but was shocked to see Nn there, sitting on a couch, dressed in ck like a grim reaper. A good looking one.


    With him was Maddox who was busy nudging at him.


    “Where are youing from?” He asked after dismissing Maddox.


    “Uhh..” La stammered utterly shocked by his sudden appearance. He has been away for two days and just came in like a ghost, thank goodness she only went out to get Maddox some food.


    “Are you deaf?” He catechized in a cold voice and the stic bag La was holding suddenly fell to the ground out of shock. The devil was back.


    “I went to get some food for Maddox..” She began convincing herself that she had done nothing wrong. So he won’t get mad at her or want to punish her.


    “Okay..” he said softly and La’s face scrunched up in confusion. Just like that he was not mad at her.


    Not wanting to waste anymore time she picked up the stic bag that she had fallen to the ground by mistake and dashed away to make Maddox and herself food.


    **********


    After La had finished eating and serving Maddox, she proceeded back to the sitting room as she needed to speak with Nn.


    He disappeared for two days and just arrived and for those past two days she had not gone to work.


    “Nn..” she called out feeling relieved that he had not left, he was on the exact same spot where he was before.


    “What is it?” He asked and she appeared in front of him.


    “I…I…” she stammered looking for the best way to start her appeal. She was innocent and didn’t want to be punished for something she knew nothing about.


    “You what?” He snapped at her his patience wearing thin.


    “I wanted to ask you if I could return back to work?” She requested picking her words carefully.


    “You can..” he epted as La stilled. Just like that? He just epted, does that mean he had found the culprit.


    “I can?” She grilled feeling unsure, maybe she heard wrong. But he didn’t give her a reply and La immediately got the message. He would not answer her question. He was obviously done with the topic.


    “I promise you Nn, I did not destroy the reports..” she began, even though he had told her to return to work. That did not mean that he had forgiven her or even believed that she had nothing to do with it. So La was adamant to prove her innocence.


    Nn had never trusted her now it’s going to be a lot worse for her.


    “Get out, I don’t want to hear about it” he waved her off.


    Unfortunately, there were no CCTV cameras in his office and that of La, if not he would have checked already to see who destroyed his reports.


    When he checked the footage taken from the hallways, it was only La and Ca that came into La’s office. That means the culprit was one of them.


    “I’m Sorry Nn, I had nothing to do with this. I will never ruin something I worked so hard on..” she uttered. She would be a very big fool to do that.


    “Just leave La. I’ve taken care of it.” He dismissed her but La was adamant on proving her innocence.


    “You must have taken care of it, but I know you still think that I did it! ” She protested.


    “And that’s why I have to prove my innocence to you, that I had nothing to do with this..” she said. The only thing she wanted was to prove her innocence to Nn. She wanted him to know and believe that she had nothing to do with the ruination of his reports.


    “That day Ca came into the office..” she began but was interrupted by Nn.


    “Are you saying Ca did it?”


    “No I’m not saying that but there might be a chance that she did it. She was the only one who came into my office after I left and I’m hundred percent sure that I ced the reports on my desk before I left, I didn’t even go near the shredding machine..” She exined her plight.


    She never wanted to point fingers at anybody but after giving it a thorough thought, Ca was the only one she could me for it.


    As Ca never liked her from the start and only started being nice to her.


    “There might also be a chance you did it. Just leave La..” he said curtly.


    “You’re only denying this fact because Ca is involved..”


    “I know if I was the only one involved you wouldn’t have hesitated to raise your hand on me..” She intoned, raising her voice this time.


    “Get out of my sight La!” He yelled at her.


    “No, I won’t leave. You should trust me more than anybody Nn. I’m your mate!” She emphasized. All of these were pissing her off. It hurt to know that Nn didn’t trust her at all and he would never.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    “You said you felt all of my feelings Nn, so tell me Nn, listen to your heart and tell me, am I the one who destroyed your reports?” She asked as she looked him straight in the eye.


    She could see denial shing through those icy blue eyes of his.


    “Please just answer me, Nn. You know the truth already. You’re the only one I can rely on, so please believe me..” she pleaded with Nn who just kept quiet as he pursed his lips.


    La was right, she was innocent. He could feel everything going inside of her and the only thing he felt was sincerity which only meant that Ca was responsible for this. He’d definitely teach her a lesson.


    “Nn please answer..” she was suddenly interrupted when Nn stood up from the chair.


    “Since you’re trying so hard to be brave, why don’t we try something else instead?” He asked as his lips curved up with a mischievous glint in his eyes as La stilled.
