Chapitre 119: Under attack (4)

Jeff noticed that Aiden's mood is changing and decided to step in. "Let's try to stay on topic... for today's incident. Did you do anything else, other than altering scripts?", Jeff asked Evalina.

Evalina snorted, "Why would I tell you anything? Ask the genius, new girl... she should be able to figure it out."

Aiden looked at Evalina with a complex expression. 'She seemed normal until Sarah joined. How can a person snap so easily... she looks unstable.' Frown on his face deepened, the longer he looked at her.

Evalina noticed how Aiden is looking at her, and she didn't like it. Her face twisted from anger, and she burst, "Why are you looking at me like that!!? "

Evalina was breathing heavily. She remembered how Aiden is looking at Sarah, with eyes full of love… and she snapped forgetting her situation, "Why do you smile at her!? What does she have that I don't? Three years! Three years I only have eyes for you, but the moment she appeared you give her all of your attention. What am I lacking? What method did she use to get your approval? How come I'm not worthy? What am I lacking? ..." Her voice was getting weaker.

Aiden looked at Evalina and realized there is no more point talking to her. He turned to Jeff, and they understood each other. Jeff gave a small nod, gesturing to security to take Evalina away. Two more security guys entered Jeff's office and they carried Evalina who was kicking and screaming again. "This is what I get?!! That bitch! I will kill her! I will kill that slut! ..."

When Evalina's cries could not be heard any more, Jeff looked at Aiden and spoke in a flat voice, "This is why I say that women are only causing trouble... and I prefer to keep it simple."

Aiden's angry expression softened, "You can say that only because you never fell in love."

"Get some security for Sarah, and a restraining order for Evalina.", Jeff advised.

Aiden didn't respond.

Jeff looked at him few seconds before continuing, "...or do you want us to handle this quietly?"

Aiden sighed. "I will handle it, it's my mess... I need to decide if I will tell Sarah about this."

"You need to tell her. That woman looks crazy. Sarah will not be able to watch out for herself if she is not aware of the danger.", Jeff advised. "Maybe nothing happens... but what if Evalina decides to take some action? What will you do if something happens to Sarah?"

"I can watch out for her.", Aiden responded without hesitation.

"Don't be stupid! You always think that you can handle everything by yourself!" Jeff took a breath, and his voice softened. "I don't doubt that my little brother is capable, but this is something that Sarah needs to know about. Evalina is not someone rational, and you don't know if she is working alone. Can you be confident that her actions are just to seduce you? Or is there something else behind all this? I don't need to remind you that you are not a person with a simple background... Also, don't forget that you have an older brother who can help you."

"Thank you." Aiden nodded and left the office while thinking of his next steps.

Jeff picked up his phone, and called his assistant in. "Make sure to blacklist Evalina Robinski. She is not allowed to come inside any property of White corp. Effective immediately. Treat this as a high priority. Send an internal secure mail to all employees that Evalina Robinski is banned from White corp. and anyone who assists her in any way will be terminated immediately."

When assistant left, Jeff turned and looked at the city view from large windows of his office. He spoke silently, to himself, "Since you said that you will handle this, I will stay away from this, my brother... for now. "

Aiden went straight to Sarah's office. He got in and locked doors behind him. "Get your things, we are leaving.", he spoke with urgency.

"I'm working on a report.", Sarah protested.

"You can finish from home."

"...and we have a meeting with Jeff later in the afternoon.", she reminded him.

"I will cancel it.", he was sure there is no reason for them to stay. Everything can be canceled or postponed, and she needed to get away from Evalina.

"No", Sarah was stern.

"We need to leave.", Aiden was frustrated that Sarah is stubborn.

"You want to say that I need to leave... why don't you just say what you are trying to keep from me?" Sarah wants him to stop hiding things from her.

His expression softened, and so did his voice. "It's not safe, let's go home... we will talk there."

Sarah squinted her eyes and looked at him. "Let me say things instead of you... I just got an email about Evalina being banned from company. That means you fired her, and she was not cooperating... did she threaten me?"

Aiden looked at Sarah for a second, then started patting himself, "Did you put some of your spying gadgets on me?"

Sarah laughed seeing how silly he looks. "I don't need to spy on you..." She stood up and hugged him. "Evalina is a jealous woman, and she is on the losing side... it's rational that her irrational mind thinks that by getting me out of the picture she will get your favor back."

Aiden hugged Sarah and kissed her forehead, "She never had my favor."

"That is not what she thinks. In her mind, you belong to her, and I came in and snatched you away. In her mind, I'm the thief, and she wants you back." Sarah hugged him tightly. "She will not stop until one of us is not able to stand any more. She will follow me no matter where I go. But this is better, because now this is something that will not implicate White corp. anymore, and I can take off my gloves."
