Suzy's heart skipped a beat, almost leaping out of her chest too. The Judgment time for her was here. She could feel her husband had taken decisions against her.
Raoul continued with a frigid face. "I'll get the servants to pack your things. You'll leave this house till you show some signs of usefulness to my family."
Leave his house?
He was sending her out?!
Roxanne and the Old lady were delighted but Suzy looked like she had lost all the blood in her body after seeing a ghost.
"No! _" she wanted to beg but was cut off.
"I warned you before, if you can't help then there's no need keeping you here. Immediately go upstairs and pick things!"
"hubby wait! I beg you ... Please just... Just give me a little time. A little time and I promise, I'll... I'll get it done"
"you heard my son, don't come back unless you're useful!"
Amidst Suzy's Constant begging and Grandma Andres yelling, Roxanne led her father away from the sitting room. Those eavesdropping for a while now we're finally able to receive the juicy news they were expecting to hear.
These would not be the only watchful eyes that leave with a full of satisfaction tonight.
...
In a medium sized hotel room. The wooden door was pushed open and a chubby man walked in with an apparently excited face. His curious eyes scanned the empty room for a few seconds and then finally lands on the Queen sized bed decorated with this luscious rose petals.
The insatiated desire from four days ago, continued building below CEO Ulan's belly button, especially as he imagined two figures rolling under the sheets in amorous positions.
Hurriedly,, he took out his phone and dialed on a number. The line rang for a few minutes and after going dead for the fourth time, someone eventually picked the call
"Hello who is this?" The arrogant feminine voice rang out from the received. Her voice was sweet and delightful despite the cold and distant tone.
"CEO Ulan. Miss Camille, I'm at Revergent Hotel, let's settle our deal once and for all. Come meet me" The elderly man imposingly said into the phone before he cut the call.
While he thought 'didn't she like competitiveness, my tone should have incited a dominative feeling in her'. The other person on the phone seemed to have been alarmed by the name and the imposing tone, thinking 'CEO Ulan? Why was he calling me? Did my plan fail? How did he even know it was me? Was he calling me for revenge.
Albeit this incensed man had no idea of the worry his toner bought to the call recipient or the slight change in fact. He excitedly freed himself from his choking suit. Not forgetting to take out the special item he had in his pocket and lighting it at the corner of the room. All thanks to that anonymous fan, he would be able to enjoy himself to the fullest tonight.
On the other hand at a certain socialite gathering. Camille could not sit still anymore. Speaking to the couple man in front of her, she could only force a few smile but her heart was not there.
"Did you leave any hint when you discussed with CEO Ulan?" She bent and whispered to her assistant when her manager was busy with the men before her. The young assistant showed as frightened face and shook her head like a pendulum.
"No I didn't, He doesn't even know I work for you, I lied that I was that sl*t assistant manager"
"Then how does he know to call me to speak about our unfinished deal?" Camille asked angrily feeling a pang of fear and worry rising in her heart. What if people get to know of what she did? She would not only get arrested but would also lose her reputation!
"I... He... Maybe he suspected me and had me followed" the assistant stuttered.
Camille's face turned unsightly. If it wasn't for the fact that she was before this company heads, she would have tossed her shoes at this stupid assistant of hers.
"Useless! You don't even know how to make sure you are not being followed? What use are you to me them?!" She cursed beneath her composed smile.
The assistant's face paled. She hurriedly whispered back "I'm sorry miss Camille. I... I didn't know he would do so. Should_ should I go to meet him instead and settle the matter?"
Camille frowned and shook her head " No need! I'm done trusting you! You would just mess things up. What if a paparazzi follow you this time? I'll just go myself, whatever that Old fella has to say, I'll negotiate by myself"
Time passed then she and the group happily walked out of the restaurant, the group had a satisfied look the face while she and her manager had joyous smiles. They had managed to secure a modelling deal with the famous YLD, how could they not be happy.
Together with her manager, she sent the men away then got into her own car and drove to the hotel. She parked meters away then got down and found an alley to shroud herself before walking into the hotel on foot.
"Mr Ulan?" She informed of her host once she was standing at the receptionist desk.
"Who are you?" The receptionist asked curiously, giving strange looks to the lady who mysterious had a shawl on her head as well as a huge sunglass and a mask on her face.
"Just tell him Camille" Camille answered agitated.
On hearing the name, the receptionist had no need to inform the person in the room again. After all, the person who booked the hotel room had specifically stressed that two of her friends were coming, one male and one female, she gave their name and requested they should be directly taken to the room when they came.
The receptionist told her the room number the Camille turned and made her way upstairs. She took the elevator and in no time, she was standing in front of that door with a disgusted look on her face. After much reluctance, she rose her fingers and knocked on the door.
"Come in" the slurped voice came from inside the room.
She opened the door and walked in just to be hit by a subtle sweet scent once the door closed behind her. The scent was so sweet, she almost felt she had walked into an orchard. Sighting the numerous rise bouquet and petals scattered across the room, she didn't need to question where the scent was coming from and so, she didn't feel suspicious.
"Heh beauty, you finally came, why don't we get to business hey?" The man had long been overtaken by the incense burning silently at the corner of the room so he couldn't even see the face of the girl who had walked in clearly. He might have noticed that her beauty had dwindled a whole level compared to the last time but the girl before him was still a beauty so he did not mind, besides which lady had the same face at every occasion. Cosmetic products was literally a second face for every lady.
Brenda took a step forward intending to question him but she suddenly felt strangely dizzy. She thought all the glasses of wine she had taken while entertaining those company heads was starting to work. She didn't think much about it instead She tried to free her head as she asked "CEO Ulan,, what is the meaning of this? Did you call me here to discuss a compensation for signing that contract with Brenda? Is this your idea of a compensation?. There shouldn't be any need for a compensation in the first place as you had also benefited from her signing the contract with your magazine. It's a fifty-fifty win" She hurriedly spoke wanting to get this negotiation over with at the shortest amount of time. She was not feeling right.
CEO Ulan had no recollection of what she was talking about but he played along excitedly, thinking she was in the mood for some kind of role-playing foreplay
"I helped you trap your enemy so why don't you pay me for my service. Such illegal deeds would cost you more than you intend"
"name your price!" She ordered arrogantly
"my price is not so exorbitant. As the Knight that brought your wish to pass, let this Damsel in distress pay with her body!" in one swell move, the intoxicated man harshly pulled the girl an pushed her to the bed. His hairy flabs of flesh press down on her pinning her to the bed.
Camille's heart chilled instantly. She hadn't expected things would turn out like this. She struggled and tried to push the man off but he was just to heavy to defeat.
"Beauty why don't you thank me?. I have gone the extra mile to procure the Pine scent so that you could enjoy as much as you want" he whispered into her ear.
Pine scent!
