Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress Chapter 787
Advertisement
Camila has been called in the HR and she showed the evidence that Gerald has been harassing him. She didn't expect that Gerald is terminated and there are a lot of complaints to him. He's married and he's also dating someone from Finance. For being a playboy, Gerald had a lot of loans in the bank and the company is giving his last pay.
She filed her complaint and other incidents that she kept on recording. Gerald's eyes are on her while the HR is facing them together. She shuddered and moved a little away. She already felt bold in front of Gerald but then, the manager came and said that there's a message from the Chairman.
"Miss Sanchez," Her Manager said. She stood and followed him. "Nice ring you got there." The manager said. She was trying to hide it by putting her left hand on the pocket or twisting the stone to the palm but it seemed like it's just catchy.
"Thank you. My best friend finally proposed." Camila said. The manager laughed.
"When will be the wedding. I am willing to be a Godfather."
She smiled at him.
"There's no plan yet. However, you will be the first to know."
"You are marrying an heir from the Dragon Empire, I heard."
"Y-yeah," She nodded. "That's because he's always carried away and accidentally impregnates me."
"Well, congratulations."
"Thank you."
They went to the conference room and there's Rhys which she's surprised about. She told him not to visit her ever again but then, there's the CEO and Rhys's father. Rhys approached her and kissed her lips. She pushed him and pursed her lips.
"What's this?" She asked.
"Have a seat first." Rhys pulled a chair for her. She sat down and he also gave her a bubble tea. They all settled down including the manager.
"The man is in so much debt." The Manager said. "So, we are giving him a second chance."
Camila nodded.
"He hasn't touched me further, because if he did, he might've got a black eye," Camila said. "He has a family feed, so whatever the decision you make, I'm hands-off from it."
"We are transferring him somewhere far." The manager said.
"Transferring him to production would be good. But he'll be monitored by the Security Team." Chairman Gabriel said. "We'll give the guy a chance. He had a lot of affairs inside this office. Not only from your department but also to finance. We are still investigating everything."

Camila nodded.
"I also think that giving him a second chance would help the company produce more. He's good at his work, the only problem is his urge to get to the top. So, we need to pull him down a little and let him do it all over again." The Manager said. "Attitudes matter at all but Miss Sanchez, it's up to you to want him out of the company."
"Me?" Camila was confused and he looked at the big boss who nodded.
"An employee like him is replaceable," Gabriel said. "But, it's up to your decision. Still, he will be under investigation."
"Okay, I think transferring him will be good," Camila said.
"You have a big heart for business," Gabriel said. "Just like your manager. But, sometimes, you need to be heartless."
"Well, he didn't go further. But if he did, I might have reported it to the police." Camila said. Gabriel nodded.
"Truthfully, Camila. I've been receiving reports from the Accounting Department that there are few losses. Or maybe miscalculation. He's involved with someone in finance. I am letting you know."
Camila nodded and thought about the woman he flirted with. She saw it many times.
"This is highly classified and I hope that I can count on you with the investigation."
"Well, sir, I know that Gerald has been with many women in that department."
"Good, I need names right away," Gabriel said.
"Will do sir." Camila nodded. Camila looked at her manager who nodded at her. She felt nervous this time.
<><><><>
The sun of Delhi India made the city something beautiful. With skies setting orange and yellow. All of them are laughing at each other throughout their flight. However, they knew deep inside what was going to happen. All they have to do is to get the former president's daughter out. No one knows that she's been kidnapped and she's part of the Philippine Navy. She had her vacation in India but ended up getting kidnapped.
It's not only her that is going to be at risk. There are also the stolen files that are designs of their suits and other gadgets and they take advantage of it. So, everything they had would be very useless if they had those laser guns.
"When we get home, I will propose to Demi," Christian said.

"When we get home, I will do the same," Noah said. "I think it's time that I should marry her right away."
"Damn, there are lots of weddings that are going to happen," Mason commented.
They thought about Rhys and Kale's wedding.
"I think Kale should go first," Christian suggested.
"Let's bet on it," Jaxon suggested.
"We are going down," Ashton said. The only guy who could be a pilot among all of them. But Ashton is another guy from the Empire. He's silent and minding the controls. But he's been with them ever since their mission. He's there as a sidekick, picking them up with any car or any helicopter or even a jet plane.
They landed soon in a private area and they carried their things out. They soon reached their hide-out by using a tinted van and the man with them followed them around. By driving them, picking them food, and so forth.
"Pal, what's your name?" Christian asked. He made a sign that he is muted. Christian nodded and checked his name on the dog tag. "Dynamite?"
Dynamite nodded. It's his call sign. He took out a paper and gave it to him. Christian unfolds the letter with a seal of the four empires.
Christian, Noah, Ashton, Jaxon, Mason,
This is a very dangerous mission. You can trust Dynamite and he will run as an incognito. Let's stick to the plan. Stick together and save our subject. Don't mind other stolen data. Our main goal is to save one's life that has been truthful to us. Please be safe.
-Dmitri.
Christian felt like his heart got bigger. Dmitri loved him like his own son. They all love them like a family. The five of them.
"What is that?" Noah asked and Christian extended the letter to him. "This is Dmitri's penmanship."
"Yes." Christian sighed. "Alright team," He held out his hands at both sides as they made a circle and held each other. "Let's be safe for the people who love us. The Four Empire loves us."
The six of them have their prayer and they eat rest and plan. Each of them is in good fit at that moment. They have no time to waste.
"Jax, check everyone's connectivity and make sure that the Double A's could respond. Noah, check the guns and bullets. Ash, checked the suits and others."
Jaxon is checking everything one by one.
"Double A's come in," Jaxon said. "This is Panther, Double-A do you copy?"
"First A, I copy," Aria answered.
"Roger." Jaxon takes another and then another as Aria answered.
"Now, is this another wedding?" Mason grinned. They all looked at him and to Jaxon. Then they all laugh including Dynamite except Jaxon. He's too puzzled about their reaction.
"Panther, bless your soul," Asher said. They all hear what Asher said and they make a big sign of the cross in front of Jaxon.
"Bless your soul." They said at the same time.
"What the hell?" Jaxon mumbled.
"Team, get ready," Aria said and they all scrambled and put their gears on. They put their earpiece one by one and check the connection again to Aria and Asher.
Dynamite helped them by putting another bulletproof vest over their clothes. They are wearing the bulletproof vest yet it won't stop those laser guns to cut them off. This is a suicide mission but what they need is to save Pamela Rodriguez. The former President's daughter and who is also working in the Navy slash a pilot.
Dynamite drives the four-by-four car while Noah drives a motorbike following them with Jaxon. Christian is chewing on his peppermint gum as he checked the location of Pamela Rodriguez.
"The location will be very tight. She's surrounded with armed men."
"Do we have another team on standby?" Christian asked.
"Yes, this is risky. Dynamite will standby." Aria said.
"Don't worry guys, we got you," Asher said.
The plan is to rescue Pamela and they will have snipers around the area but they also don't know how many snipers they have hidden. At this moment, Andel is working in the background working with few people to check on the snipers.
Christian exhaled as he thought about Demi at this moment. He will come back to her.

Shades of the Moon
I'm rewriting this story! I have taken down Arc 2 and Arc 3 already to avoid spoiling my new novel. The only reason I'm keeping the first 10 chapters is nostalgia; the writing is awkward and the story is not plotted out properly, but it's here if anyone wants to compare it to the new one. If you'd like to read a more professionally written version of this story, I highly suggest checking out my Synergy. Synopsis version too-many-to-count: “I see,” Kiona said. “But . . . you’re changing once again, aren’t you?” The entity considered her question, lifting a clawed hand towards the night sky. They observed the back of their hand idly, watching the glowing orange veins pulse alongside their pitch-black exoskeleton. The wind picked up right then, and Kiona shivered—just as much from the cold as from the savage grin on the creature's face. “That’s right,” the entity said, clenching their hand slowly into a fist. They let out a quiet laugh, staring defiantly at the Moon as it rose from behind the clouds. “We are shades, yet not exactly. Not like the others. Here, in this world, we've become something more. We are the Shades of the Moon.” There was a heartbeat of silence, during which Kiona joined the entity in their skygazing. The light-green Moon loomed over the city, shining like the entity's eyes. It promised otherworldly knowledge and terrible secrets. It promised progress. It promised change. In that moment, Kiona couldn't have imagined anything more beautiful. “Shades of the Moon, huh?” she said, smiling a bit. It had a nice ring to it.
