100 She Missed Him Like Summer In The Winter

"What's wrong with Catastrophe? Is she always like that?" Death asked Tequila. Tequila only cross his arms and told him not to be nosy.

Catriona was holding her phone and staring at Enzo's number. Soon, Tequila enter her room and reach her phone.

"What's wrong with you?" Tequila asked and when he realize that the door is still open, he closes it. "You can't call anyone."

"I know." She said and was about to reach her phone.

"I am keeping this. There's no need to deny it, Cat. Let's work on this as soon as possible and be careful. Then we can go back." She nodded. Tequila kneel in front of her and scoop her cheeks. "Hey, I know that no one ever treat you like Enzo did. I know that he loves you so much… but we promise Sabrina about this." He said it in very low voice.

"We owe Sabrina too much. And I can't be with her brother because of that b.a.s.t.a.r.d."

"Don't think about it—sometimes it is better if we take risks than nothing at all. Whatever your decision is—I am here to support you." He pats her head. "Don't be sad now, I've never seen you like this"

Catriona pushes his hands away. Tequila smiled.

"That's my girl. Now, what do you want for dinner?"

"Anything."

As soon as Tequila left with her phone, she show her sadness again and rubbed her chest where her heart is located. d.a.m.n this stupid heart who beats only for Enzo. It was a stony heart before covered with frost. She lay down on her bed and reach the thick blanket since they are in a flat of one of the hotels.

It was cold in Switzerland and the warmth that she always feel after twilight was gone. Her thought swirled on their memories together in the beach. Where he ask her to marry him. He had confess his feelings to her many times but not directly telling her that he loves her.

"Don't be stupid now, Catriona. You need to finish this and make a certain b.a.s.t.a.r.d pay."

She rest for a while and then start doing her tai-chi poses getting ready for tonight. She got out and smell Tequila's cooking and Death had also order pizza. She sat down and reach the pizza and started eating without words.

Tequila serve her veggies and then chicken b.r.e.a.s.t.s. She ate quietly and suddenly thought of his cooking. Tequila's cooking is just good and a little plain but Enzo's cooking was always great that the taste melts in the mouth with explosion. She thought that she'll get fat because of him but—he always tire her in bed.

Tequila pats her head and she smack it away. He probably had read her mind and he washes it away by messing her hair.

"Are you guys that intimate with each other?" Death suddenly asked.

"Would you mind your f.u.c.king business?" She said coldly in love voice. Death suddenly s.h.i.+vers and he lifted his arm showing Tequila his cat hairs that stood up. Tequila gave him a pity look.

After two hours, they gear up and left the flat on their way to the target.

Ethan was checking out from his hotel in Manhattan when a woman in red trench coat came up to him with a smile.

"Mr. Alvarez, do you have time?"

He saw her on the plane four days ago. He check his wrist watch.

"I'm busy right now."

"But aren't you curious of my proposal? My boss is waiting for you in the restaurant nearby."

"Sorry, Miss but I am busy right now." He brushes her off without giving her a chance to say anything at all. But just when he stepped out from the hotel, five men in black gather around him. He scoff and face the woman who is already behind him. They had cornered him.

"What is this about, Miss—"

"I'm Sylvia, Mr. Francisco's secretary. He wants to speak with you about business. We had sent business proposal to your office a month ago and we haven't gotten a reply."

"I am a busy man, Miss Sylvia. And if I haven't seen the proposal—it only means that it didn't pa.s.sed on our company's standard." He said it straightforward and didn't care if they have guns. "Threatening me like this won't work. This is the work of a gang, don't you think?" He said it calm and still manage to smile in businesslike.

Francisco never thought that Ethan wasn't someone he could messed with. Around Manhattan there are always agents around. He has his own body guards that was settled by his sister without their knowing. Once—he almost got kidnapped in New York to threaten him to sell his shares but invisible body guards appeared.

"I apologize Mr. Alvarez, but it wasn't our intention. We just want to talk."

"Okay." he set up his smart watch. "I'll give you five minutes to talk."

Sylvia didn't waste time in bringing him to the restaurant. Soon, Ethan sat down in front of Francisco and announce the four minutes of time for them to talk. Francisco suddenly laugh.

"I never thought that you'll be different from your father."

It shook up Ethan but he didn't show it to his face. He just remain calm letting Francisco get puzzled if he knows about his father.

"Then I'll get to business." Francisco give him the proposal.
