Enjoy----------------------------------------

Hunter's P.O.V.
———————

   I was just stepping into the office when the caretaker just walked out. She's a lady above forties but looks a lot more aged that that.

   I should really tell Dad to hire younger people.

  Almost sitting on my chair when my door was thrown open and slammed shut in seconds.

  Then I was up on my feet again.

" Did you know?" Came Iris's seethed words.

  No good morning or your files are ready?

  The courage she uses will be the death of her.

" Iris are you really going mad? I'm just walking into the office and that's the first thing you say to me? It's not like that question has a logical base " My arms flailing around in contempt.

" Fine, let me rephrase "

  So no apologies from her. Point taken.

" Did you know Mr Reid and Meredith were related?"

So that's what this is all about?

The red hair?

" Did I know Mr Reid and your red haired friend were related? Yes I do. Mr Reid is her father, come sue me " I slumped into the chair.

  Of course I had known, you can't work with Mason and miss out on how much he misses the littlest and cutest red hair he had ever seen.

" You knew? Yet you made me go for that event!?" She shouted like that was a bother.

" First of all, do not raise your voice at me. And secondly what does the event have to do with it?"

" Well listen " She took strides till she was directly in front of my table.

" Meredith is my friend "

" And she's not mine" I shrugged

" Of course she's not and she'll never be. Judging by your personality I'd be surprised if you had any at all" She was most definitely primal at the hour.

" Then I'll like to surprise you "

" Why didn't you tell me?" She asked almost breathing fire.

" It's none of your business "

" We're talking about one of my closest friends here!"

" Like I said, that was none of your business and it isn't mine either "

  Her breathing shallowed and she stared at me like I spoke Martian.

" Huh?"

   So i was right. She is confused.

" Mr Reid and his family is his business not mine. If anyone was to inform you about that it should be him or someone from the Reid family not me. Telling you about it is equivalent to spreading info about a man I want to work with, info which I may add that I'm not sure of" I explained hoping her stubborn skull will open and accept knowledge.
