Upon walking along the doorway, a furious thought came inside Freja's mind.
A parallel quantum chip huh? – Freja thought. She had not thought of using it before. It was a precious chip that only five chips were ever created successfully. The FRI acquired only three chips, one was missing, and another one belonged to the Granitz camp It was used during the Frank raid last year, to help her son. But how the new member liked Dianne able to acquire the chip without three permissions from Pierre, Elena, and her. Pierre and Elena must permit Dianne but she was not at FRI last week. Pierre must know something – Freja thought. Freja became more serious. She walked to the left wing, standing in front of Pierre's office.
The office's door slid open. Pierre sat behind his desk, typing on his laptop. He did not notice the presence of Freja, as she approached him. "The cybernetic arm" Freja started, serious, heartless voice. "You told Dianne Scholz to use the parallel quantum chip, am I right?" Freja asked. "What annoys me is how Dianne can get the new chip without my permission." Freja stopped. "Freja, welcome back, How is Jepun?sushi is tasty right?" Pierre smiled, avoiding answering Freja's questions. "Don't change the topic, Pierre, I know it was you behind all of this" Freja started to strengthen her voice. Pierre exhaled. He started to speak in a serious tone, boldly. "Let me correct you, it was Dianne's idea to use the chip," he said. " I and Elena allow her to use it for the sake of science" he continued. "Do you have any doubt on that?" he added. "That's not what I am asking" Freja strengthened her voice, become more angry. "I wanted to know how Dianne got the chip without my voice permission?" Freja hit on his desk. "Wooh, are you hurt?" Pierre teased. He saw rage in Freja's eyes, so he stopped his teasing. "If you were here, you would permit her anyway. " he said, " I just made it simple, and faster by using your voice that I have recorded." he said boldly. "Or would you say, you will not permit Dianne to use the chip" he asked back. "You owed me once, Freja, remember?" Pierre's tone was intense enough to overwhelm Freja's rage. Freja was stunned as she recalled Frank's raid last year. Freja came to ask Pierre to bring out the chip in order to save her son from the battle against Frank. By the end of the war, her son was entitled the war hero. It was that time that Freja told him she was in debt to him. "Yeah, I remembered," Freja said. "And now, I am free," Freja replied. "For a record, I allowed Dianne to use the chip, even if you don't bypass the protocol" Freja said and then left the room.
That man was so irritating. Since he came to this institute, her career, her family were ruined. She was supposed to be the next director due to the experiences and good relationship with the previous director, Edwin Weissman. But that man took the acting director position from her, took everything from her family. Her son had to break up with Elena. Then Elena turned to that man. Because of that man, Pierre – Freja thought. Thinking about Elena, tonight she would finally see his son happy again, Elena would be back to her son again. She had a smile.
"So that's what the situation is, thank you for your update Piere" Elena thanked Piere for bringing the update to her. After being released from hospital, Pierre asked her to stay over his place for a time being. Pierre smelled something might happen if she lived alone. It would be too dangerous to let her stay alone – Pierre told her. Pierre was very certain that Karl, Elena's ex-boyfriend, was behind her abduction. He was not sure what he was intending to do afterward. So he asked her to stay close to him until he figured things out.
"Are you hungry?" Elena asked Pierre.
"What do we have today?" Pierre asked her.
"Pasta alla carbonara" Elena said with a smile. Elena could not stay still, so she told Pierre that she would do housework for him while she was staying here. Pierre did not reject that as he planned to spend his time mostly at the FRI. Until Elena said to him to come back and have dinner with her, because she felt lonely to stay alone. So it turned out Pierre had to come back everyday for now.
"Elena, I appreciate your efforts, but what are you wearing?" Pierre asked about her costume today, as she was wearing only an apron, and panties.
"Do you like it? I chose this while I was shopping with Dianne on that day" She said as if it was nothing. "I thought you might like it" she continued. Her usual tease made Pierre's laugh. No word from Pierre, as he reached out his hand to grab Elena's waist. "Pierre!, dinner will get cold" Elena in a surprised and embarrassed expression. "but tonight I want to have dessert first," Pierre kissed Elena. The carbonara then got cold when they had their first bite.
A few days later, Freja came to Pierre's office again, this time she came with officers.
"You have been arrested, Dr. Pierre Therma" an officer stepped forward and said to him.
"Under the violation of the protocol, you had to use your voice transmutation, shadow your voice as Freja Feta to acquire the ABC's and national property, the parallel quantum chip" the officer continued. "We have confirmed the use of a transmutation voice device," the officer continued. "You will be under detention for a time being, waiting for your judgment" the officer continued. "Please come with us".
"What is the meaning of this, Freja?" Elena, standing and watching the situation, asked.
"As you see, Pierre violated the use of the quantum chip. He must be under investigation" Freja said. "I should have arrested you as well, if you were not my son's childhood friend" Freja leaned close and whispered to her. "I will be alright, Elena" Pierre said. "Don't do anything reckless" Pierre said before two officers led him out.
With Pierre under investigation, my path to become the director of FRI is bright - Freja thought, watching the officers led Pierre out.
