The bell rang. 

Ivy narrowed her eyebrows. It was only seven in the morning. She wondered who it could be at this time of the morning. She was not expecting anyone. "Who could it be?" She looked at Noah with her eyebrows raised.

"I think it\'s my guard. He must be here to deliver my clothes. I\'ll get it."

"Oh, now you are staying overnight and getting clothes to your girlfriend\'s house. How cool is that." She chirped.

Noah sniggered and went to open the door. As expected, it was Ronnie. He was always sharp on time. "Boss, these are your clothes." He handed a bag to Noah.

"You can go."

"Okay, Boss."

"Hey, what are you doing? Call him inside." Ivy said. She was already standing behind Noah. He did not know when she had come there.

"It\'s fine."

"Are you sure? The poor guy has to wait for a long. Let him have some breakfast before leaving. Let him come in." Ivy said and then she smiled at Ronnie.

"It\'s fin...."

"Noah." Ivy gave him a look and he sighed. He opened the door wide for Ronnie to step in.

"It\'s okay. I am fine here. I\'ll be leaving." Ronnie tried to object. But when he received the same look from her, he obliged like a meek puppy and came inside.

"Now, shoo. Go take a bath." Ivy shooed Noah away much to his astonishment. Ronnie too looked at her bewildered. It was the second time he was seeing something like this. First, it was Aria who did not have an ounce of fear for his Boss and now her twin was also showing the same behavior. To them, he was not the great businessman, Noah. Instead, he was just Noah. "And you," She turned to Ronnie. "Come in."

Noah chortled and went to Aria\'s room. The drunk woman was still sleeping and occasionally she would roll over to the other side. Noah glanced at her for a second before he went to take a shower.

Meanwhile, Ivy led Ronnie to the living room. "Please take a seat." Seeing him hesitate, Ivy stated, "Don\'t worry. This is not your Boss\'s house. This is your Boss\'s girlfriend\'s house and as the girlfriend\'s sister, I guarantee you that Noah will not come after you."

Seeing Ronnie finally sit down, Ivy heaved a sigh of relief. She had her reasons for allowing Ronnie to come in. She had to ask him some questions about Noah now that he was in a relationship with her sister and who could be a better person other than his guard who was with him most of the time.

"Do you want some tea or coffee?"

"I am fine. May I have some water though," Ronnie replied. He could feel Ivy\'s scrutinizing gaze on him and it made him uncomfortable. He had faced a lot of people since he started working for Noah and nothing had fazed him other than his Boss\'s devilish smile. This was the first time he was feeling fidgety with the way Ivy was looking at him. It was as though she was trying to see through his soul.

Ivy brought a glass of water and placed it on the table. But Ronnie did not pick it up. 

"I have some questions I want to ask you about your Boss. I hope you don\'t mind." Ivy\'s words made Ronnie look up. He pondered what she wanted to find out about his Boss when she knew everything about him, almost everything. He was a business tycoon and the tabloids loved him. So, she could look up on the internet and would find a lot of articles on him.

Ivy noticed Ronnie\'s confusion. "I am not asking as a journalist. I am now your Boss\'s girlfriend\'s sister and I am concerned about her. She is the only family I have and as an elder sister, it is my responsibility to see to it that she is happy. I also need to make sure that the man she likes is actually the best for her. She should not end up hurt later."

Ivy cleared her intentions and Ronnie understood what she wanted of him. "Sure, go ahead."

"Please answer honestly. It\'s my sister\'s future in question." Ronnie nodded to her request. She was doing what she had to do as a sister and Ronnie had no objections to it.

"How long have you worked for him?"

"For more than fifteen years."

"Practically, you have been with him for half of his life. So, you must be knowing a lot of things about him. How is he as a person?" 

Ronnie furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "How should I answer this question?"

"I mean, how is he as a Boss? Is he good? Does he treat his employees well?" Ivy started off with an easy question.

"Yes. He is the best boss anyone could ask for. I am not saying this because I am obligated to and I work for him. I am telling the truth. He treats his employees really well."

"That\'s good. How often does your Boss encounter danger?" Ivy question startled Ronnie. He was expecting her to ask about Noah\'s past lovers or anything about his love life. Never had he expected her to ask something like this.

"What?"

"Yeah. Since he is like the top in the hierarchy, it is not uncommon that his life is often threatened. There must be at least one person who he is enemies with."

Ronnie did not know how to answer her question. How could he say that the first time Aria met Noah was in the hospital when he had been shot? 

"Tell me honestly."

"Can Miss West handle the truth?"

"Yes."

"Okay. My Boss\'s life is always in danger. Many people want him gone as he is the heir to one of the richest and most powerful family in the country. There are people waiting for his downfall. So, I will not deny that his life is not peaceful. But I can guarantee that none of those people will even get near Miss West\'s sister."

"Fair enough. Even if something were to happen to her, I will not blame Noah. The world is filled with dangerous people."

Ronnie\'s respect for Ivy increased a lot more. She was a lot mature and open-minded than he had thought. 

"How serious do you think your Boss is about my sister?"

"Miss West, I have never seen Boss behave the same way with other women the way he does when he is with Madam. His feelings for Madam are genuine and honest. I am not going to deny about the women he was with in the past as you would already know about it. But he was never this caring and loving with them. It was only after Madam entered Boss\'s life did he change."

"Are you saying the truth?" Ivy bent forward slightly with her eyes fixed on Ronnie to check if he was lying.

"Why would I lie about it?"

"Fine. I\'ll believe you. I have this one last question. Is Noah hiding something which Aria needs to know? I am not asking about his business matters or his family matters. I am asking about the things that are important for Aria to know about."

Ivy\'s question rendered Ronnie speechless. His Boss had a lot of secrets which he was hiding from Madam, one of them was even about her father. Also, she did not know he was related to the Underworld. How was he supposed to reveal all of these to Ivy? This was a matter that even Noah would hesitate to tell, let alone Ronnie.

"Miss West, I am not sure what you are talking about. But I do not that think that my Boss would not hurt Madam ever. He has some secrets about his life and I am sure he will reveal them when the time comes."

Although Ronnie\'s answer was vague, Ivy did not feel anything suspicious about it. So, she did not give it a second thought. "Thank you for answering honestly. Please make yourself comfortable. I\'ll go prepare breakfast for all of us."

Ivy went to the kitchen leaving Ronnie alone in the living room. The man immediately took a deep breath after she left. He had been worried about her questions. Except for her last question, he had replied honestly to all the others. The entire time he was being questioned, he felt as though his head was on a guillotine, ready to be chopped off any moment. He had become nervous and it had taken him great strength to keep himself calm.

He picked up the glass of water and gulped it at one go. It was only later that he could relax a little. But this was short-lived when Ivy came back.

"Sorry, I forgot to ask this one question." Ronnie stiffened at once. "It\'s not about your Boss. It\'s about Joshua Martin, your Boss\'s friend."

Ronnie gave her a suspicious look. \'Why was she asking about Master Martin?\'

"Yes?"

"Does he have a girlfriend?"
