As she wanted to make her way down the stairs, seeing the light on in Kaiser's office, she walked over and knocked on the door.

"Come in." His low voice sounded out.

As she cracked the door and poked her head in, she saw that he was standing at his desk, which had multiple monitors as well as his laptop open. Maybe because it was evening and he was home, he looked lightly disheveled with his tie loosened, the first couple of his shirt buttons undone, and the sleeves rolled to his elbows.

As he glanced at her, his face softened, and his eyes curved in an amused smile.

"Awake? What's up?"

"You look busy? Are you on a call?" she asked curiously, taking in the reflections of people's faces in the window.

"I am, but it's not important. What's up?"

The lawyers who had been dragged into overtime meetings for an expedited lawsuit: "......" are we a joke to you? Since they couldn't open their mouths to say that, they just listened intently to the soft, gentle tone of their boss as he spoke to a woman they wouldn't see but could hear.

Was this the mistress of the Grayson house?

Not knowing the lawyer's thoughts, Valentina walked closer while fake glaring at Kaiser.

"You called Luca ugly?"

"Not quite. Did he come crying to complain?"

"Yes. He said you were being a meanie to him."

"Well, he called me ugly first, so I just retaliated." At Kaiser's unrepentant look, she couldn't help but laugh. She couldn't believe a grown man was beefing with a four-year-old.

"You guys have the same face."

"Heh. That's what I told him. Then I showed him my baby pictures. He was shocked. I don't think he knew." Kaiser replied with an amused chuckle as he got out from behind his desk and approached her.

"Petty." She snorted in amusement.

"I am very petty, so don't forget it. Did you only come to talk to me about another man?"

"That man is your son. Who is four, mind you."

"He's almost five. That's old enough to go out and support his family back in the day. Besides, he's competing with me for your time." At his silliness, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"I came to get a drink and make some food, and I wondered if you wanted to join me and hang out. especially since...you know I'm leaving."

"Sounds fun. Give me a moment, and I'll join you."

"Then I'll see you in a bit?"

"Yep." Grabbing her hand, he pulled her into his arms, hugging her and burying his face in her hair. As her arms wrapped around him, he laid his chin on her head.

"Valentina."

"Hmm?"

"You should give me a treat and put on the pink one you held up last time or the teddy bear one the second time I came to your house. It looked good. Not that this one is bad," Kaiser murmured into her neck as he buried his face into it, smelling the refreshing scent of her lotion and the intoxicating smell that always seemed to surround her.

"You are such a vampire. Always at my neck." She teased him as she pushed his head away. His breath was ticklish.

"I vant to suck your blood. And some other parts. Bleh, bleh, bleh." Kaiser whispered in a horrible accent before bursting out laughing at her incredulous expression.
