Her evil payback smile...
Even Denzel and Corrie were surprised how she made them confess
"She's so cool" Corrie muttered as she stared at Darcia with admiration
"How did she even?..." Denzel shook his heads still surprised
"I know right?" Corrie asked shaking her head too
"And this is also a means to tell you that I have my eyes everywhere" Darcia said looking around the hall
The stare send shudders to some people, her eyes rested on two people and she smirked
"That's all, you can all continue your partying" She said and left, the spotlight also went off
The music was back in buy no one was ready to party, especially the people Darcia just looked at
Darcia walked straight to her office with Livia behind her, they both packed their stuffs ready to head back to the mansion
Suddenly the door opened, Denzel and Corrie walked in
"Whoa ma..." Corrie trailed but Darcia cut her off
"Please, call me Adrielle not ma" she said shortly
"Miss Adrielle" Corrie said and Darcia nodded
"You were so cool" Corrie said
"How were you able to make them confess on your own?" Denzel asked
He stared straight into her eyes, those lazy eyes that held no emotions, those eyes were unpredictable just like her
"We have our ways" Darcia replied
"That Susan, she confessed on her own" Livia laughed and Corrie joined
Darcia just stared at Denzel for some seconds before grabbing her phone
"Good night Corrie and Mr Washington, have a goodnight and weekend" She said
"And.... Continue the search, this time on the marketing team, tho I already suspect two people, I hope you'll be able to confirm my suspicion" Darcia said
"Yes Miss Adrielle" Denzel said
"Good, happy weekend" She said and left with Livia
"She's so freaking cool" Livia said
"She's smart" Denzel responded.

As soon as Darcia and Livia got to the mansion, Jevin walked out as if he had been waiting for them
"Good evening ma'am" Jevin greeted
"Hello Jevin, and it's Darcia" She said
"Yes Miss Darcia" Jevin said
"Won't you greet me too?" Livia pouted and Jevin almost rolled his eyes
"Miss Livia, please don't trouble me" He sounded helpless that Darcia almost laughed
Poor guy.
"I can't help it, I like when you frown it makes you cute" Livia giggled
At the sound of cute, Jevin frowned causing a louder giggle from Livia
From his face, Livia knew that he hated being called cute, but he was too cute for her to stop calling him cute
"Don't call me cute" he said but Livia shook her head stubbornly
"I can't, you're very cute" she said mad wiggled her brows looking troublesome
"Miss Darcia if I may" he said and Darcia stopped walking and turned to them
"Yes?"
"Am I permitted to throw her out for an hour?, Or can I file for a restraining order?" He asked and this time Darcia laughed
She actually laughed
Jevin was surprised, he thought she was always serious, but he was serious too why was she laughing?
"Well I don't know how to answer that" she said and went upstairs into her room
Jevin sighed again and turned to Livia who was still holding that annoying grin on her face
He turned and walked upstairs but she rushed behind him
"Wait for me cute" she mumbled as she ran, trying to catch up with his pace
His legs was long as he was tall but she was the opposite, she was shorter than him, way shorter. He was even taller than Darcia but not as tall as Denzel
"Com'n, you can't ignore me" she said as he kept walking and she kept following him
When they got to the king corridor, she made to grab his hand but he beat her to it as he grabbed her unexpectedly and pinned her against the wall, her hands above her
Her eyes were wide cos she never expected it, her heart was racing at his sudden closeness
"Don't tempt me" he said
Livia could hear her heartbeat at this rate, his soft masculine smell made her legs go weak, his strong intensive gaze made her breath hitched
She was suddenly nervous
"What...." Before she could finish, hie lips went to her ears and suddenly his voice felt so magnetic and addictive
"I'm not someone you should mess with" with that he left her and walked away
Livia stood frozen on her spot for minutes, her heart was beating frantically she was trying to calm down
Why did she suddenly find him very attractive?
Livia turned her head again to the place where Jevin just walked to
She shook her head
"It's the result fir being single for a hundred years" she said and walked into her room.

Meanwhile in Darcia's room, she was in her usual black fits, black pants, black simple top, black boots and black jacket, her black hair was in a simple ponytail
When she walked into her room, she suddenly felt the urge to go see her father, how he was faring at least
A portal opened and Darcia walked into it, in the next minute she was in the Dark side, inside of her room
Calculating the time in the human world versus their world, theirs was faster, so a few hours or a day would be like through out the night in the human world
It was enough time for her.
Getting into her room Darcia looked around, it was normal but clean, it seems the cleaners do their job everyday
Darcia walked down the hall silently, whenever he met the guards he would hush them so they wouldn't say a word
Her eyes suddenly felt sharp and caught some voices, it was coming from Rosella's room. Darcia vanished from her current position to her stepmother's room door
"Is it done yet?" Rosella asked
"Yes, the maid is going to serve it to him" Amber replied
"What?, Do it yourself you idiot, he's going to suspect that idiot is annoyingly smart " Rosella snapped and Amber nodded
"Alright, lemme go quick" She said and Rosella smiled
Amber added the portion into Luciano's favorite wine as he had asked for it, getting to the door of his room Amber glared at the guards
"Is my father in?" She asked
"Yes princess" One of the guards replied
"Tell him the wine has arrived, can you give it to him?" She said and stretched the tray to them
"No, he said he needed you to give him personally" the guard said
Amber frowned at first but shook her head, not thinking much of whatever she was thinking
"He can't know" she thought
"Alright" She said and they opened the door
The room was quiet when Amber walked in and it was empty
"Daddy?" She called
"Over here darling" Luciano said from his study
Amber smiled slightly, cos she knew whenever he was there he was always stressed out meaning he could take the drink without thinking twice
She knocked in the door before opening it, but she was shocked to death when she saw Darcia sitting beside him, looking at her lazily
"Hello sister" Darcia's mocking voice sounded
Amber knew Darcia hated calling her sister, except she has something in her sleeves. She wasn't going to let Darcia see her sudden change of emotions
But what she didn't know was that Darcia already saw through her
"Daddy, I brought your wine" she said and dropped the wine on the table, she turned to leave but Darcia's word stopped her
"Why did you bring it yourself?"
"We don't trust the maids with daddy's wine" Amber replied looking innocent
"Then can you taste it?" Darcia asked
"Off-course not, that'll be disrespectful" Amber said and forced a laugh
"Alright then...." Darcia stood up but before Amber could react
Darcia charged towards her and grabbed Amber's throat with her left hand, the drink was in her right
"I'll force you to" She said opening Amber's mouth and poured the drink down her throat
"Gilkllghhurrggliiuttgghh" came Amber's resisting sounds as the drink ran down her throat
"Good" Darcia smiled in satisfaction as the entire drink went down Amber's throat
Luciano sat behind as he looked at the scene in front of him, he had his usual smile on
"What can I say? I'm a proud father" he shrugged ....
