"Sir, the DNA test results have come back" My assistant informs.

"I'll look at it later" I say as he places the envelope down on my desk and silently walks back out.

As crazy as Vince sounded it could be true.

But he seemed high..
Or drunk
Or maybe both

I pick the envelope up staring at it like its about to murdered me.

Probably is, not in a literal sense but metaphoric.

I hear clicking of heels ascend towards my office.

"Mateo?" Vee's voice calls out knocking on the door.

I quickly shove the envelope into the drawer.

"Come in" I call back.

I hear the door open as Venus steps in wearing a black suit with a white tank top underneath, gold jewellery and black saint Laurent heels.

"Hi" I say awkwardly.
"It seems like you just got a head or something" She replies sitting opposite me.

"Head? No, God no" I chuckle.
"Is the girl hiding under your desk?" Vee asks leaning back.

"No she's still sucking my dick" I scoff.
"I can't tell if your being serious or not" She replies slowly.

"I'm obviously joking Miss.Lovett" I grin.
"Anyways..I need to ask you something" She trails off.

"So the contract is ending in four more months which means I have to solve everything into place and you Mr.Revker need to help me" Vee explains leaning her elbows on the desk.

"Of course" I reply.
"It's nothing like too serious but I just need you to do some calculations" She says.

I nod even though her words are echoey.

"Mateo?" Vee calls out.
"Yes?" I reply.

"You zoned out for a bit, it's fine if you don't want to I'll do it-" She quickly offers.

"Venus, I'll help you don't worry it's just something is stressing me out" I sigh.

"You want to talk about it?" She asks.

I stay silent.

"How would you react if you figured out something that can change many lives?" I question looking into her deep blue eyes.

"I- that's random but I'd feel pressured" Vee replies.

"But if the secret is too dark, I'd consider leaving it a secret" She continues.

I won't be doing that, or should I?
