"I heard about Fred and you," Ashton said while they were walking.

"ohhh.. " Emma was a bit upset.

"I heard that you were working at a Radio Station earlier."

"Yeah..." Emma answered with a smile.

"Seeing your smile, seems like you enjoy working there."

"Working as an RJ is something special to me.."

"Is it!!!" Ashton asked in excitement.

"mmm"

"Any reason?"

By then, they reached Mr. White's House.

"Hello, Mr. White. Here is your order." Emma answered with a smile

"Aaaa.. Emma.. You are on time. Else I would have fainted due to hunger." Mr. White said playfully.

"Then I would call Mrs. White to rush back from the office to check on you."

"I am perfectly healthy just by listening to her name."

Both of them laughed. Emma's smile was back.

"Oh, young man. How are you?" Mr. White asked Ashton.

"I am fine. Thanks to you." Ashton replied.

Just then Emma's phone began to ring.

"Excuse me. I will take the call."

"So, Are you guys seeing each other?" Mr. White asked.

"No sir. You got it wrong. Was just at the cafe" Ashton answered.

"Then why did you accompany her?"

"Fred was out. So .. "

"Oh, this Fred. Emma is a lovely kid. Life has always pushed her into difficulties. With my experience, I can see you like her. You young people need to hang out more. Don't miss your chance."

Ashton smiled.

Emma returned and said, "I need to go to the cafe quickly. Let's leave. Bye Mr.White"

"Young guy, think about what I just said."

"Sure, Sir."

"What did Mr. White tell you?" Emma asked.

"Nothing. Let's go."

As they entered the cafe, they saw Tina waiting at the gate. She had a tensed look on her face.

"Emma, thank god you are here."

"What happened?" Emma asked to calm Tina.

"They are calling me for money. We have spent our savings last month. If we dont pay them, they are gonna harm You. Take the cafe too..."Tina started to panic.

"How much do you own?"

"The borrowed money was 15,000, which has already been paid. Interest of 5,000 and an additional interest of 2000 is also paid."

" So you already paid 22,000, and how much more is he asking for?"

"More 10,000. Have to pay by evening which is quite impossible."

"Don't worry, I have some 2,000 deposit with me. We can try for something else." Emma said comforting Tina.

"But, that all you are left with." Tina said.

"It's fine, I can find a job soon." Emma said with a smile.

"You guys take care.. I will be back in sometime." Ashton left.

As he came near his car with Mark, he said

"Find out the loan shark and deal with it. I shouldn't see him in the city anymore. Ask Reene to handle it. Also make him warn Fred. I don't want him to cause further trouble. "

"Sure, Mr. Miller." Mark said.

"Remember, I need the results in an hour.."

"Yes."

"Also, try to arrange a job for Emma as soon as possible."

"Sure,"
