13 A Ruckus Remember to wait for Aunt Gianna under that shade after school dismissal … Athena pointed to the shade she was referring to , as she and her children came out of the principals office .
The twins nodded , smiling adorably at her .
They jumped excitedly , holding her hands , as she walked them to their classroom .
And please dont make any trouble in class … Kathleen pouted at her mothers implied reprimand .
Mom , we are not trouble makers ! Athena nodded solemnly , causing Nathaniel to chuckle .
His mother knew them well enough .
We w try , mom if no one looks for either of our troubles .
But we will keep our troubles safe , and out of reach .
Athena hoped , for the sake of other children , that they hid their troubles properly .
Her children could be problematic when they chose to be .
When they got to the classroom , she squatted to their height , and dropped a kiss on their forehead .
Listen to your teachers , sweethearts .
I will ask you questions when you get home … The twins nodded , before dropping a kiss on her checks .
We will pay utmost attention ! Also promise us to be safe today … Athena furrowed her eyebrows at the strange request , but nodded all the same .
Just at the same time , the twins exchanged furtive glances ; Kathleen brought out a toy watch from her bag , and handed it over to her mother .
To remember us … even while you work … Athena chuckled , wondering at the sudden need for remembrance .
They didnt give her this when they had lived away from the city .
Why now ? But she took the gift , happy to have it .
Its cute .
She spoke as she wore it on her left wrist .
She didnt care that the watch looked childish .
Because it came from her children , she would treasure it with her life .
She was so engrossed with dropping another round of appreciation kisses on their cheeks and foreheads , that she didnt notice the red light that blinked twice and stopped at the edge of the watch .
Good bye … She waved after them , as they walked into their class , feeling bereft as she always did when they parted ways for even a second .
It reminded her of those days that had been bleak and drab .
She sighed , drew herself away from the sad memories , and turned toward the exit gate .
Her driver was waiting .
Last night , after working , she had emailed Zane a resignation letter .
He had given her at C Last night , after working , she had emailed Zane a resignation letter .
He had given her a response Two minutes later , as if he had been expecting her email .
He hadnt accepted her resignation .
Rather , he had booked her a dinner , to discuss some things .
Already , Athena knew it was about Ewans stupid speech .
However , because of Zanes father , she had agreed to meet him after work today .
She checked her new watch , the time was actually working .
She chuckled as she entered the car , and told Aiden to drive .
She loved her kids ! When she got to the hospital , she sigh when she saw a queue behind the reception desk .
Looking to the other side , she followed the back door , and went up to her office , refusing to be swamped by overzealous patients , or their families .
It was too carly for that .
As she got into her office , she said a little prayer for the day , and set about arranging the documents on her table .
After that , she informed her personal assistant , through the telephone , to send in her first patient for the day .
A few minutes later , there was a knock on the door .
Athena righted herself on her seat , before beckoning on the knocker to come in .
When the door opened , Athena saw the surprised look on her assistants face noting it must be because she hadnt come through the front door before she saw Fiona .
But Fiona already saw her first , if the contortion of the latters face with fury was any indication .
Oh well .
What a bad start to a work day .
Athena mused , waiting for the other shoe to drop as Fiona stepped properly into her office .
you What are u doing here ? Fiona demanded , after scrutinizing the large office as if it was too pure to be tainted by a strange woman causing Athena to pique her eyebrow at the disturbance she wasnt ready for this morning .
When Athena gave her no reply , Fiona hissed and turned to the personal assistant .
What is the citys whore doing here ? She was fired a few hours ago ! The personal assistant was lost for words .
She didnt get the memo .
Athena inhaled and exhaled tiredly .
She looked at the name tag on her assistants shirt .
Ciara , take the mad woman out of here .
I dont think she is ready for treatment .
Me ? A mad woman ? Do you know … Fiona pushed Clara away when the latter tried to pull her out of the office .
You stinking secretary ! If you touch me again , Ill make sure you spend your remaining days on earth in jail ! Clara kept her hands to herself .
She knew who Fiona was .
Athena chuckled softly .
Clara , dont be afraid .
Call security to throw her out then .
Dont waste a 2/3 13 A Ruckus Athena chuckled softly .
Ciara , dont be afraid .
Call security to throw her out then .
Dont waste a second .
Ciara obeyed instantly .
Athena was still her boss .
Picking her phone , she dialed the security , watching with curiosity as Fiona glared at her boss .
What could be the history between them ? Theres a mad woman in our boss office .
Come take her away .

Fiona glared at Ciara again , but Athenas calmness gave Ciara the boost she needed to remain rooted in the face of Fionas anger .
Do you know who I am ? You stupid secretary ? I will make sure you lose your job today ! Ewan Giacometti will make sure of that ! Caira faltered then , but Athena wont have any of that .
See the fool bragging with a mans name ! Athena chuckled again .
They arent even married yet .
For all we know , he might be using her to warm his bed .
Fiona saw red .
She was about to walk up to Athena , when the guards arrived .
The guards looked at Athena for instruction , having recognized Fiona as Ewans fiancée .
Throw out the mad woman ! Athena ordered , a sly smirk on her lips .
How dare you ?! Fiona screamed when the two guards bundled her up .
As they carried her out , she turned to Athena , her eyes flashing with fury .
I saw Zane and Ewan this morning .
They were talking about your position .
Zane promised to fire you .
And I know he will , you whore ! You will be fired by the end of today ! Ewan will come for too , wait for it ! Athena snorted , and let the chair swirl her in a 360 degree motion , twice .
She will wait .
She loved the waiting game after all .
