That Adonis is Mine!

Abby looks over Sophie who reclined against the black leather padded chair. Her regal superior aura where nowhere to be found, what left was downcasted young girl who her beloved was rumored of being cut-sleeves.





It had been 2 weeks since Sophie buried herself with her workload. She would take all those high-risk projects that other deem unworthy and turned odd to her wins. She was sometimes curious on how did Sophie know that such projects, even one of it, would able to generate back her previous lavish spending.





Now she had 15 of it running.





Her mind was reeled back instantly when she heard Sophie slammed her palm against the desk and stood up.





"Abby, call Gilligan."





Abby can't help herself from raising her eyebrows. Sophie would only call Gilligan when she needed something to be invented, something that theoretically impossible to be achieved from the current technology market. Gilligan would be her geek expert whenever she wanted something techy. But on what?





Why the sudden interest in calling Gilligan? Though the curiosity bites her inside, Abby still did her task and contact Gilligan on secured channels. After the fourth beeps, the call was established and Abby stood close to Sophie while listening to their conversation.





"Gilligan, how small is your current available surveillance system?"


"Small? Do you mean in size?"


"Yes."


"A size of a rice grain."


"How many?"


"A dozen."


"Great, give me all."


"Sure. I'll ask Wally to send it over to you today."





The call disconnected with Sophie felt excited. Her hazel eyes twinkle with delight like a child receiving a new toy. Standing opposite of her Abby felt goosebumps. After knowing Sophie for a few months, she recognized that look.





'Someone's running out of luck and I'm glad it isn't me. Whoever you are, I gave you a silent prayer.'
