lled with his accolades and recognitions in the business world. She went around and sat on his chair. "Allison, is this how you work? Be professional!" She said, trying to mimic Callum's voice, and

I.. uh... I'm not sure sir.. I.. I didn't check the time" She stuttered. Callum sighed. "We'll check the CCTV footage sir, the security is on it" Mr Micheal, the head of the IT unit said. Allison's heart almost flew out of her chest. "CCTV?!" She asked, her voice almost a scream. "Yes, CCTV, is there a problem?" Mr Micheal replied, "Oh no, that's a great idea." She said, her heart was beating fast at the thought of being caught on camera. "What would she say?" "Great. Get the footage from the security, Allison as soon as possible." Callum said "Yes sir" "You can all go back to your offices" As they dispersed from the meeting, Elena, a colleague walked up to Allison."I knew you were up to something". She said her voice barely a whisper. "Sorry?" Allison replied, wide-eyed. Elena was one of the ladies she didn't like in the office with her piercing red hair and complementing blazing red lips stuck."I hope nothing is found on you from the CCTV. Be careful" Elena said and walked away. Allison ignored her. She thought of confessing to Callum but it was not a good idea. He might even hand her over to the police. She stood before him as he went through the CCTV footage on his laptop, biting her lips. Callum raised his head to look at her. "You left immediately after me yesterday?" He asked.

As she left, Callum could not help but wonder who the bugler was. He picked up his phone and dialed Lucas's number "Hey dude" Came Lucas's voice bouncing over the phone "I know it was you who came to my office last night?" Lucas's laughter echoed across "Your office? To do what?" "Common Lucas, don't try to play dumb. Someone tried to open my private drawer and I know only you would dare try!" "Wow.. so now you have come to terms with the fact that I'm your enemy, not your buddy. Well, I didn't come to your precious office but I'm flattered you are finally acknowledging me as your enemy" You choose to be my enemy, Lucas, it's high time you accept that you are a loser. Leave me alone! I don't want to have anything to do with you. Focus on reviving your crashing company instead of plotting to bring mine down" "Lucas's voice dropped to a menacing roar "I won't stop until I bring you down you motherfucker so watch your back" Callum heaved "You can only try" "Oh! I see you have gathered enough courage. Those little secrets in that damn drawer will soon be out in the open and you end up groveling and begging before me" "You are..." The
