Chapter 29 - The fish has taken the bait!

The next day Mick returned back to his former self and resumed his duty as usual, while Leo also return back to being his boss.

Clara, on the other hand; avoid Mick like a plague. It would have been better if she had discussed it with Leo.

At least she would get the gist and also need not take Mick behaviour to heart, but in fear that she does not want Leo to make fun of her; she has kept mute about it, and Leo also feign ignorance and kept enjoying the show.

.....

Leo request for a meeting at his company immediately he returns. He selects some certain staff to be present.

These staff are Jerry's eyes and ears in the company. He had recommended them and Leo didn't mind but kept record of their identity.

When they were all presented in the meeting room, they were a bit shocked. Not many staff has the privilege to look at Leo up close like this, and now they were present in the same room with him.

What they weren't aware of is that, they are all related to Jerry. They were recommended separately, so most of them believed they are the only one, and that, it was a secret.

Leo sat up straight in his sat, dressed in a navy blue suit, with his hair permed all the way back, looking as handsome as always.

"Since I have your attentions, I would like to express my gratitude to you guys, for being a wonderful staff. You're all good at what you do and I really need your help." Leo begin, ignoring the shocked expression on each of their faces when they saw him.

"How would you like us to be of service to you?" one female staff that was closer to where Leo sat, asked with a smile on her face.

Leo looked at the sharp tongue lady and smirked. She did not even let him give them permission to talk before speaking up He admits to himself that she is indeed a bold one.

"I need your help to recruit a capable staff like yourselves. There will be an interview in the next two days and I want you guys to be responsible for selecting a better candidate irrespective of your positions, someone as good as you." He said.

They all look at Leo with an astonished expression. They all felt that they were being ignored before, but it seems like the boss is taking note of their hard works and request something this important of them.

They were confused at first but after thinking it through, they believed the new worker might be needed for the other branches. 

"We will do our best." the same female worker spoke up again as if she is a team leader speaking on behalf of her teammates

Leo looked at her and nod, "good!"

After the meeting.Some of those staff brag about how highly the boss thinks of them to the other staff, making them envious and determine to work harder to be able to get such chances as well.

When Jerry receive up to seven different reports stating what Leo ask of them, from his people at the company; he wasn't sure what was going on, but on other thought, he believed Leo was trying to get on his good side after annoying him days ago.

He doesn't really concern himself much with work-related issues. He only enjoys the wealth, and make a grand entrance at occasions that required Leo's presence like the real owner, so he was not sure if the other branches are short on staff.

He's only concern about the main company, so he brushes away all the worried thought on his mind and smile, 'it's good that he's knowing his place.' he thought, but still crave a direct apology.

....

Clara on the other hand, has nothing much to do concerning her job as a bodyguard, so she spent her times studying her prey, and tonight was her first night at beginning her hunt.

At an exclusive club around midnight, Clara was seen rolling her waist on the dance floor, but her dance step did not match the song that was being played.

Actually, she has gone through YouTube and with her copycat ability; she downloaded different dance step into her system, and just kept changing dance moves, which does not tally with the music she's listening to, and this made her stand out among the crowds.

Sitting not too far away from where she was; were two handsome fellows. They occupied a large area of space at the club as no one dared to move closer to them.

They have their legs crossed and fixed their gaze on the beauty dancing not too far from them.

Clara was putting on a pink crop top, which exposes her tiny waist and flat tummy, with a black bum short, which hugged her hips, and a zip-up black high heels, which was zipped up close to her knees. The upper part of her hair was tied in a ponytail, while the lower part cascade on back

As she twisted her waist and wiggle her body nonstop; the two guys couldn't take their eyes off the two dimples above her bum, it's so enticing.

Clara is adorned in materials of high quality. Her targets are filthy rich people. Even though she's a great beauty, they still prefer quality, and the Clara they are looking at is adorned with it from head to toe.

Those people have eliminated their business rivals and remain at the top. Many companies were burned down, with innocent people present inside, by them.

Even though Clara is not doing any work in particular at Leo's mansion; others might feel bad for doing nothing and was given whatever they asked for, but Clara think of it as her right, and compensation for part of what she went through.

She complained to Leo that she was not able to buy things she desires because she's feeling shy that a man accompanied her to shop. Leo has casually given her his black card to get whatever she will be needing.

For the past three days now, Leo has been receiving numerous debit alerts and Clara has not returned the card.

All her wardrobe were filled up with designers clothing of high quality, shoes of latest edition and all. She even took the card with her to the club and spend lavishly.

When Leo received the alerts; he only shook his head and wonder what exactly he has done to Clara. He didn't mind the money, but no matter how he looks at it, he felt that Clara was doing all this intentionally. 

Clara suddenly felt a strong energy approached her from behind, and gave a mischievous smile.

The fish has taken the bait!
