Diana observed her carefully and asked after a minute, "Why are you hiding yourself from me, Rachel?"
Rachel Foster whom Diana selected to be her assistant, was shocked to the core when she heard Diana's question..
"What? What do you mean by that Ma'am? Why should I hide myself from you?" Rachel asked while stuttering.
Diana smiled at her and said, "How can I give you the answer Rachel? It should be you to tell me the reason.."
Rachel gulped and said meekly, "Ma'am...I don't know anything which you're talking about. You must be mixing up something with me."
Chuckling at her stupid excuse, Diana said, "Did you think I forgot about my own friend Rachel?"
Hearing that, Rachel looked up at her shockingly as she asked, "You...you remember me.."
"I never forgot you to make me remember again.." Diana said smilingly, walking towards her.
Rachel's lips quivered as tears started to fall from her eyes as she stuttered, "I.. I'm sorry.."
Diana stood in front of her and hold her shoulder before asking, "Sorry for what?"
"That I tried to ignore you.." Rachel said in a low voice.
Smiling at her, Rachel hugged her tightly, and said, "Come on stupid. Don't say sorry to your friend. And I missed you very much."
Rachel smiled and said, "I missed you too Diana. I'm happy that you're here."
Diana just beamed in joy after meeting her friends after so many years and said, "Okay.. Now back to work now. Go and quickly inform the other team members to come for the meeting.."
"Right now ma'am." Rachel said and left her cabin.

Rachel was once Diana's friends when she studied fashion designing in city B few years ago. They were in the same class and also under the guidance of same professor...
So most of the time, they had to submit a joint project which made them good friends. They started to hang out with each other, eat lunch together and everything which changed their friendship status from good friends to best friends..
Rachel belonged from a middle class family who was studying her dream course fashion designing, depending on her scholarship.
Whereas Diana was a heiress of a wealthy family of country Z. She was a brilliant student and her designs were all time best so all the professors had loved her.
Though her marks were great and she was nominated for a scholarship, she didn't take it cause she thought more needy people like Rachel would be helpful of the scholarship. Her family could always afford her course fee so why not give chances to other deserving people..!!
Although both of them belonged from different types of families but they never let their family status clashed between their friendship.
But everything had an end written to it and same happened to them..
Diana had to leave her study in midway for some family problems but she came to give her final exam when both of the girls met for the last time and later from then they had never seen or talked with each other as Diana left for country Z and Rachel lived in city B..
It's just two years ago, Rachel got selected to work with a company in city S which later gave her a chance to get appointed by the big company like Lopez Industries few months ago..

Brown Corporation...
"Tomorrow , you don't have to pick me up from my office." Alonzo declared.
"But why sir? Everyday I drive you to your office." Bill asked, being confused.
Alonzo looked up from the file that he was reading and said, "Cole is visiting city S for some of his business purpose along with his sister. So I want you to pick them up from the airport in the morning."
Bill was shocked when he heard that his boss's friends was coming...
Actually he was not at all tensed about Cole coming there as he knew both of the young masters were best friends from their childhood and shared a special bond.
But the matter he was been perplexed about the most, was the visit of Regina Parker who was supposed to be Alonzo's fiance whom not only Alonzo and Myra but also Bill himself detested from the bottom of his hearts...
Still, he was bound to agree with Alonzo's every words as he replied, "Okay Boss. But did you inform young miss Myra about it?"
Alonzo cursed himself in his breath when he remembered that he didn't inform his sister about their visit tomorrow when he clearly knew how much Myra loathed that dirty witch Regina.
"I forgot. But it's okay, I'll call her immediately to come in my office." Alonzo said and Bill left.

Myra was outside of her home to buy some beautiful table lamps when her phone rang and it was her brother.
"Hey bro." Myra greeted.
"Myra, can you come to my office now? I have something to tell you." Alonzo said.
Myra was not far from Alonzo's office so she agreed, "Okay. Coming in fifteen minutes."
She then chose two lampshades which caught her eyes and bought it from the store before leaving for their company.

Brown Corporation…
Myra walked in the office as Bill escorted her towards Alonzo's cabin. Everyone greeted her as they knew that she was the sister of Alonzo.
"Hi brother. What happened?" Myra asked as soon as she entered.
Alonzo smiled at her before saying, "Yesterday Cole called me to inform that he and Regina are coming here tomorrow morning. I forgot to tell you yesterday so called for you now.
I know that you can't tolerate Regina at all so thought you could prepare yourself beforehand if I tell you about their visits."
Shock was an underrated word to describe Myra's expression as she was more scared than being shocked after knowing it.
"Don't worry. I'll not let that Regina come near you or harm you. After all you're my little sister and very much precious to me." Alonzo assured, thinking that his sister was terrified hearing Regina's name but the actual scenario was absolutely different..
