Liar Liar Billionaires

Adrenaline.

She was high on it and she was so close to nabbing her tar…

“Ow!” Chloe howled, her flour covered hand grabbing the foot that had just hit against an iron thing, her body struggling to maintain balance.‘I always knew this shit would injure me some day.’

A maniacal laughter from afar off suddenly reminded her of what she was up to. Smirking to herself, thumping her hurting foot on the cold ground, Chloe's eyes waved towards the fat, bald man who was presently running the most distance he probably ever has, thanks to her. “Oh no, you don't.”

And… after that statement came; some catching up, grabbing, tossing, punching, groaning, pressing, choking and finally… Chloe nabbed her target who she had worked for, for four freaking months.

As she bounced onto the big belly of the man who had just been caught red- handed dealing with blood diamond- the ultimate evidence that she had been anticipating, Chloe took a second to rest. And, to be honest, the belly was being a good bean bag.

Ignoring the groans of the hurting man, she proceeded to dive into her fantasy. A holiday on the beach after her four months ordeal in some God forsaken flour making company didn't sound so bad at that moment.

“Good to see you finally taking some rest.” Snapping her eyes open, her instant reaction was a sneer.

“How...” Her eyes chose to rest again. “...on earth do you manage to arrive so fucking early?” Immediately, she made eye contact with the silver haired man whose firm signature look was still very much in use.

“Are you people tracking me? You thought I was going to fail this mission at some point, didn't you? I don't believe this!”

Allowing her to be adequately melodramatic, the frail looking man stood there, looking down at a ranting Chloe Pepper as patiently as he could. “Are you done?" his firm voice asked.

Brushing off the strand of hair in her face, a sassy look on her face, she replied, “Yes, I am.”

“Well, Agent Pepper. I came into town two days ago to visit my daughter. And I decided to check up on you. But...” Conner stole a glance at the sprawled man on the floor who had already accepted his fate. “...it looks like you have everything under control.”

“Oh.” She immediately felt embarrassed. And grateful. She could have been penalized for her attitude considering that she had just talked to her senior angrily. “So, sir…” A huge grin covered her face as she slowly got up. “Do I get to go on my break now?”

Conner sighed. He knew how stubborn and egoistical Pepper was. He just knew she wouldn't apologize for her unruly talk. “You have just a few hours break Pepper.”

Frowning, the dark haired whined, “But I was told I would be able to get two weeks to myself after this mission.”

“Agent Pepper... “ with his firm voice hardened and the side of his face clenching Chloe knew she had to pull herself together and guide against getting in Agent Conner's bad books. “... even your seniors do not get two weeks break. Besides you have just concluded your second mission, you don't get to say anything about a break. Is that clear?”

“Yes sir.” As her response was being murmured, her eyes stayed down on the ground.

Conner gave a deep sigh. “You know you have a long way to go in this agency right? Don't be in such a hurry. Anyway, there is a new job for you and this one is quite huge. So, leave this mess to me, go get refreshed. David will come get you and we all will talk about this new mission. Okay?” Chloe gave a short, accepting nod.

“Good job Agent Pepper. Don't forget, the next one is quite huge, so brace yourself.” Conner reached for her arm and patted it in a fatherly manner.

“Well...” Chloe said with her breath heavy, her dream holiday being tucked away. "... I do like them quite huge.”

“Are you getting leaner or what?” The young man who the question was directed to, turned in the wheeled leather office chair, a large welcoming smile on his face.

“There she is.” Chloe, who was happy to back took a little bow before having her seat. “How was Chicago?”

“Crazy. I got hit on a lot of times.”

“Who wouldn't want to hit on a hot lady working in a Flour company?” Chloe flashed Steve a side look, deciding to ignore his subtle compliment.

“So, what happened while I was gone?”

“This place was boring while you were gone.” The blonde pulled his chair towards her, his face lighting up the more. “Agent Skipper was caught masturbating though.” Chloe's eyes opened.

“He was doing it right here.”

“Right here?” Chloe took a quick look at the circumference of the conference room as though she was just seeing for the first time.

“Over there.” His right hand pointed to the end of the large oval, polished, specifically structured wooden table. “He was doing it to Agent Sarah. She was on the phone and unknown to her, she was being wanked off to.”

“It really happened?”

“You can ask around. Agent Sarah was so embarrassed when Agent Conner walked in to the scene.”

“You most definitely are not telling Pepper about Agent Skipper, are you?” At the voice of their superior, the two immediately sat upright.
