The Great CEO's Wife is a Gangster 70 CHAPTER 70: HAVE WE MET BEFORE?

"But we might be able to persuade them, again." Robert insisted.

"No we can't! they already broke their alliance with us and choose the Williams instead!" the mysterious guy was aggravated.

"But who persuade them? Ethan doesn't even have the slightest idea about our plans." Robert was curious.

"Someone is working behind my back. I will definitely destroy whoever ruins my plans!" he promised.

"Would that mean that our plans for the annual symposium will be forfeited?" Robert asked.

"No! I am going to make them sign the petition by hook or by crook!"

"Why don't you just leave that to me." They heard a woman's voice, "I will try to convince the others." She smiled slyly like a fox.

"What's on your mind?" The guy asked.

"I'll just talk to them. And also I'll be seeing Ethan Williams today."

"I'll leave it to you then." The mysterious man grinned widely. He has strong belief for the woman in front of him. She would be able to handle those people as well as Ethan. Well, he'll let her play with them for the time being. She'll do her job better.

She tried to remove her arm in her grip.

Angel felt Aisha's nails being buried in her skin.

"Let me go!" Angel demanded.

"Don't test my patience Angel. Do you know I could file harassment and attempted murder against you?"

"I didn't do anything to you, you freak!" She forcedly removed her arms in Aisha's grip.

"Don't you dare lie to me! sending some dummies to harm me? Do you really think it will break me? Then you're wrong. so if I were you, I better get my ass out of here before I ripped that face thickened by make-up!"

"Oh that, well go ahead. File a complaint against me. But do you think they will believe a harmless woman? I wonder how you were able to beat them yourself? Don't you think it's a little bit off to know that one woman was able to handle ten big men? Cause I can't." She dared Aisha.

"Are you trying to get on my nerves?"

"No. I'm trying to get the real you." Angel smirked.

"Be careful for what you wish for lady. Don't try me." Her tone was threatening enough for Angel to step backwards. Damn! This is not the old Stacy that she knew.

"I will." Angel faked a smile then turned her back as she walks towards her car. She clearly can't beat the woman in front of her. She looks like an innocent sheep on the outside but she is a wild lion in the inside. The fudge! Why is she afraid of her all of a sudden? she's just a mere woman! well, she'll just get her one day.

As soon as Angel hurled off, Aisha dialed hunter's number.

"Send me all her information within the day, please. Do a background check as well." After talking to Hunter, she went directly to her office.

"I thought you won't be coming back. What happened?" Caleb asked as soon as Aisha came in.

"It useless to talk to dad right now. he's not being himself as of now." she heaved a heavy sigh. Caleb and Lisa stared at her intently. She looks so down.

Aisha headed to the empty couch and laid her tired body. Why does she feel tired when she didn't even do anything today? she was caressing her temples when Caleb went near her. he touches her head then started massaging it. Aisha felt a bit of relief.

"Thank you Caleb. You really know how to make me feel good." She smiled.

"Of course. I am your best friend after all." Caleb tried to speak comforting words. Lisa gazed at them. She smiled within her. They perfectly understand each other. They look good together as well. Why didn't they end up together? She was lost in her own thoughts while looking at them warmly.

"Are you okay Lisa?" Aisha asked her. she caught her looking at them when she's about to turn sideways.

"Ehm yes. I am just wondering though."

"Wondering what?" Caleb also look at Lisa.

"You both understand each other without a glitch. Also you look good together. Why didn't you end up together?"

Caleb laugh so hard that Aisha spank his head.

"What was that for?" he paused.

"You're too noisy! Your about to damage my eardrum!" Caleb pouted upon hearing her. after a while, Aisha sat up straight.

"Maybe because we're just meant to be friends after all. Caleb and I grew up together in an environment that you won't ever wish to live in. he became my brother. My anchor." She smiled at Caleb, "he is a good person and I have to admit that he is also good- looking, but I will never have wanted to spend the rest of my life with a person like him—a player!" she laughed crazily.

"Hey! I am almost tearing up! Why do you have to destroy the moment!" Caleb yelled at her. Lisa chuckled as she gets back to what she was doing.

"By the way, why did you suddenly ask me that?" Aisha to Lisa

"Nothing." she giggled. Her phone suddenly rang.

"Hello?" Lisa answered, "Kian? Yeah sure, why not. After 5? I'll be out by 6. Oh okay. I'll see you then." Then she drops the call.

"Was that Kian?" Aisha asked while Caleb scoffed.

"You're going on a date?" She teased her while looking at Caleb.

"It's not a date. He just wanted to give me something." Lisa defended.

"Are you sure he's not hitting on you?" Aisha continued.

"I don't usually care about your stuffs, but I don't trust that guy. take it from a man's perspective." Caleb indifferently said.

"You sure? aren't you just jealous?" Aisha was mocking him.

"Why should I?" Caleb irritatingly stood up as he approached the door, "Date as many men as you like, just be sure not to come running for help!" he banged the door. Lisa and Aisha looked at each other.

"She's jealous." Aisha whispered.

"Why should he? He doesn't even care." There's a hint of sadness in her voice.

"You never know."

Aisha went out of the office after their little chitchat. She decided to see Ethan for the meantime. She doesn't feel like doing anything right now. she took two coffees in a styro cup before heading to Ethan's office.

"Where's Ethan?" She whispered to Dorothy.

"He is inside talking to a client."

"Ohh, did I come at the wrong time?"

"No, you're just on time. they're about to end."

"Okay. I'll just wait then." After some minutes, Ethan came out with a woman.

"Thank you Ms. Gray. I hope for a good partnership in the future." She heard Ethan spoke respectfully. She stared at the woman who was with him. she looks familiar though. Just where did she saw this woman again? She was thinking.

"Of course Mr. Williams." The woman paused as she stared back at Aisha.

"Oh," Ethan was able to notice where her gaze is. He was surprise to see his wife. "By the way Ms. Gray, I want you to meet my wife, Stacy." Ethan held her wife's waist.

"Have we met before?" Ms. Gray asked.

"I don't think so. But you look familiar though." Aisha answered back. The woman was looking at her intently. She was staring at her as well. She really looks familiar.

"Anyway, It's nice meeting you Ms. Williams." She laid her hand.

"It's my pleasure." Aisha shook her hand. She was looking at the woman's eyes then her eyes widened when she realized something. No, it can't be! She gulped.
