The three of them once again gathered at the dining table. Erick and Bryan looked at each other when they saw the food on the table.
"Wow... I'm so touched. Did you prepare all of this because you knew that I am coming?" Bryan asked Elle
Elle gave him a forced smile.
'Of course not! If I knew that you would come then I would have eaten this food all by myself.'
"There's plenty of food. What's the occasion?" Bryan commented again.
Erick didn't expect also that when she said that she already bought food, it would be this much.
It would be too much for just two people. Luckily Bryan insisted on tagging along with him.
Elle noticed the strange gaze coming from Erick.
'Oh come on, don't give me that look. It was not really my idea to buy all of these, it just so happened that the Moron Charles ordered too much then left me all alone.' Elle thought to herself.
"I just don't know what Erick's like so I just randomly picked these foods." Elle lied.
Erick chuckled "You could have asked me if you really wanted to know."
"I don't want to disturb you with such trivial things. I know you are busy with your work." Elle retorted
"Hehe, You are right. Do you know Elle, we had just a conversation with the infamous assassin Catseye today! She was really rude to Chief Lee so I defended him." Bryan said while boasting.
"Oh really? What did you do?" Elle raised her brows.
"Well, nothing much. I just told her that she is ugly. Hahaha. And guess what, she got mad!!! I won!"
Erick let out a chuckle while Elle was smiling at Bryan but deep inside she was already thinking of different ways to shut his blabbering mouth.
"You really have the guts to laugh now. That was the reason why you insisted to come with me. Are you really defending me?"
"After pissing her off and sensing her dangerous threat, you immediately pushed me forward as a shield and hid behind me." Erick teased him.
Bryan smiled sheepishly because he was guilty.
"Sorry Chief, I already did my best and said too much so I just gave you the chance to talk with her, besides she said she just wanted to talk to good-looking guys."
"Even though I am also handsome but you have an edge. So I nominated you instead of James. He's a civilian after all. What if Catseye would try to pick on him."
Erick shook his head "You really have weird reasoning."
Elle nodded in agreement.
'Yeah, he is definitely weird! Thinking that I am targeting the Arison family just because they are good-looking. How come he became an investigator?'
She gave him a doubtful look.
"Alright, let's eat first," Elle said to them
Elle lowered her head trying to hide her evil smile.
'Sergeant Velasquez, since you delivered yourself to me, then I will give you a lesson later.'
After their dinner, Bryan proceeded to the living room to watch some movies. Just a while ago, Bryan requested Erick if he could stay over for tonight.
He was willing to sleep on the sofa as long as they would allow him to stay.
He didn't want to go home because of the threat that he received from Catseye. In the end, Erick agreed after consulting Elle.
Of course, Elle wanted him to stay because she was planning to give him a lesson tonight.
Erick just went outside to buy some midnight snacks. Bryan suggested with them to have a movie marathon.
Bryan already started to play the first movie. He chose an action movie entitled "Mission Impossible."
Elle saw that he was so focused on the movie. She looked around and she checked whether Erick was there but she didn't see him.
A cunning smile appeared on her face when she saw the perfect opportunity to attack her target.
She approached Bryan. She sat down beside him on the couch. She just came out after she took a quick shower. When Bryan saw her, he greeted her cheerfully.
"Hey Elle, do you like love stories?" Bryan asked her about her movie preference.
"The one playing right now is an action movie. If you don't like it, we can change it. What do you think?" he added.
"No, it's okay." she simply said. Bryan just nodded then he averted his gaze back to the television screen.
"Bryan, can I ask you something?" Elle said to him.
"Sure! What is it?" Bryan said to her enthusiastically.
"Erick and you mentioned during our dinner that members of the Arison Family are all good looking, is that true?" Elle asked him.
"Yes! They are all good-looking. Do you hear about James Arison? He is the new chairman of Arison Holdings and Mining Corporation. He is a young bachelor."
"He is very attractive and charismatic. There are many girls who have a crush on him." Bryan was really talkative.
Elle asked him one thing and he answered with so many words.
"He is equally handsome with Erick. Then I am next. I am just one level below them. Haha," Bryan said while brimming with confidence.
Elle just rolled her eyes when she heard him. Bryan continued to talk.
"His younger sister, Miss Selena Arison. She is beautiful inside and outside. She is like a princess in those fairy tales, very charming and attractive."
"She can capture the hearts of every man just by her sweet smile. If you see her, you will want to make friends with her."
Bryan's admiration for Selena could be seen in his eyes while describing her to Elle.
Elle raised her brows and thought to herself 'Hmm, is that so?'
Then suddenly Elle asked Bryan a certain question that made him shut his blabbering mouth and focused his attention on the girl who spoke up.
"Who is more beautiful, me or Selena?"
Bryan:"..."
Bryan was dumbfounded. He was shocked by that unexpected question from Elle.
He didn't know what and how to answer her. He was puzzled why Elle is asking him about that.
When Elle didn't receive an answer, she faced Bryan and she held both of his shoulders. She repeated her question and said it in a more seductive way.
"Do you think, who is more beautiful, me or Selena?"
Elle was intently staring at him with her alluring eyes. She was slowly moving her face towards his face. Bryan froze on his spot.
'What is she planning to do?'
Their faces were just an inch away from each other. Their noses were almost touching. Bryan could see her face clearly.
He noticed that Elle has dark long eyelashes that complimented her sharp brown eyes. It was so captivating.
His heart started to beat faster and at that moment, he seemed to forget how to breathe. What makes him more nervous was when he looked at her pink kissable lips.
His heart started to run wild inside and his mind went blank. Seeing his reaction Elle's lips curled into a smile that appeared so seductive.
They were in that kind of position when someone from behind saw them. It was Erick.
