Chapter 32 - Where are my Gold Bars?

Ayesha is closed her eyes as soon as she was comfortably seated in her chair, her head is leaning on Knight's shoulder. Mrs. Gonzales looked at her daughter in the mirror.

"She looks tired." she uttered while staring at her daughter.

"She slept late last night because of that game she played." Knight honestly answered, it was his fault for introducing that game to her. He then holds Ayesha's head to prevent it from falling.

The sight of him doing that gesture made the single Aria to feel giddy at the same time a little bit jealous, she too wished of meeting a man like him.

When they arrive at the mansion and the car stopped, the two elder Gonzales immediately went out from the car, they were ȧssisted by Aria and Mr. and Mrs. Gonzales also followed.

Knight carried Ayesha all the way to her bedroom, she was in a very deep slumber that she never woke up when he picked her up in the car. He gently place her in the bed and cover her body with the blanket which have a pikachu design. He then went outside after tucking her properly, while he was walking along the corridors, his phone suddenly rang. He took it from his pocket and looked at the caller's name.

"Hello Louise?" he answered as he strode his way to the living room.

"Boss can you come to the office right now?" Louise asked his boss. Knight frowned because Louise's voice seems odd.

"Okay I'll be there in a minute." he replied and ended the call. He saw Mrs. and Mr. Gonzales, sitting and talking in the living room.

"Auntie Lucia, Uncle Felix," he called their attention. "I need to go now, I still have something to do." he looked at the two couple as he was trying to bid goodbye to them

"Oh okay! Thank you for taking care of Ayesha last night." Mrs. Gonzales uttered and Knight made his way out.

"Auntie and Uncle would you like to eat something?" Aria came out from the kitchen and asked the two elders, but they just shook their head. "You can prepare something for yourself there Aria, me and your Auntie are still full." Mr. Gonzales said and the couple continue talking while Aria went back to make herself something to eat.

Knight arrived at the company building, his employees greeted him. They were quite shocked to see their boss visiting the building for the first time again, they knew that he decided to become a professor for an unknown reason. He walked straight to the elevator, he pushed the top floor buŧŧon and the elevator went up. The door opened and he walked towards his office. When he opened the door, he saw Louise sitting on the couch, he was staring blankly at the table.

"What the matter with you?" Knight asked when he got inside the office.

"Boss, I... I think I'm in love." Louise said as he looked at Knight.

Knight looked at his secretary, "Did you ate something? Is this the reason why you asked me to come here?" he asked Louise.

"Boss I just saw the most beautiful girl in the entire world." he dreamily uttered again. Knight just shook his head. "I probably gave him to much pressure and responsibility." he thought.

"You can have a one week off, I think you are just to exhausted that it already affected your brain." Knight once again said and he went to his chair and sat down. Louise was just staring at Knight who is now reading a document.

"Stop staring at me. It's creeping me out." he uttered without looking at Louise. "And where did you find the girl whom you think you're in love with." he asked, he is also curious because this is the first time that Louise declare that he is in love.

"I saw her in the hospital this morning. I went to buy some medicine for Auntie Wanda before I went here in the office. Boss she was so cute and so beautiful." Louise said and he again stared at Knight.

"You have one week vacation so go find the love of your life, I can't let you be a single man forever." Knight said and he drove his secretary away. After Louise left the office room, Knight decided to go home and bring all the documents to his house.

Ayesha woke up at the sight of her bedroom and Aria's face who is until now munching and stuffing some food on her mouth.

"You're awake." Aria uttered when she saw Ayesha sat down on her bed.

"Yeah, how long have I been sleeping and who carried me here, I remember I was sleeping in the car." Ayesha asked while she rub her eyes.

"You've been sleeping for hours already and Mr. Salvador was the one who carried you." Aria replied. "He also mention that you were heavy despite your petite body." Aria jokingly said to Ayesha. Ayesha just rolled her eyes. She then remembered her Gold Bars.

"Where are my Gold Bars?" Ayesha asked while looking around her bed and table, she then looked at Aria who is still munching.

Aria also looked at her, "It's with Auntie Lucia" Aria replied and munch again. Ayesha immediately went out from bed and run towards her parents room.

"Mom where are my Gold Bars?" she asked her mom. "I've kept them." her mom just leisurely said.

"I want them back mom, it was a gift." Ayesha calmly said. "No it was not a gift Ayesha. It was an instrument to-" Mrs. Gonzales didn't finished what she said because Mr. Gonzales handed Ayesha a box which was the same box where the Gold Bars where put. Ayesha took it, she said thanks to her dad and went back to her room.

"Why did you gave them back?" Mrs. Gonzales asked her husband. "You don't want her to get mad don't you?" Mr. Gonzales also asked back. "You can't do anything about that Gold Bars Lucia, it's hers now. The only thing we need to do now is to prevent Ayesha from receiving any gift from him. Mr. Gonzales said and hugged his wife.
