Chapter 12: The dinner 3

Mr. Mac applauded the young girl in his head. He gave one of his men a signal and he left.

Kiera swallowed and swore to teach this little wench a deep lesson. She looked at the ladies that came with her. It was as though they had passed a secret message.

After sometime, the crowd dispersed and the party continued.

Mr. Mac used his old eyes to scan the whole place. He wanted to see if Ariel was here already. When he didn't see her, he felt down. Just then, his cellphone rang. He picked it up.

"Little mermaid. Why did you leave this old man here alone to suffer?"

Ariel rolled her eyes skyward. "As if.. anyways, I'm already here. I'm with my friend Tyra".

The old man nodded. "Do take care of yourself".

Ariel hummed and hung up. She looked at Tyra.

"I wonder who the boss is".

"Which boss?", Ariel asked.

"The new boss for the Forbes Consortium".

Ariel sighed. She wasn't really interested in this new CEO thing that everyone was fussing over. She only had one goal in her mind that is keeping her on.

And that is...her revenge.

"How come you didn't know this and you still attended?"

"It's not that I don't know it. It's just that, it's a soil that might help my plants to grow ".

Tyra arched a brow.

Ariel looked down from where she was at the sea of people who had com forbthe occasion. They didn't really come to wish the celebrant well, but they came for their own fetish desires, well, that includes her. Her eyes caught sight of a young man looking at a certain place from time to time. He swirled the wine in his wine glass from time to time and checked his wrist watch.

Ariel followed his line of sight and saw a young girl sitting at a corner. It was that young girl who had given Kiera her own piece.

She looked away. She didn't want to mind her. However....

"Tyra, could you stay here for a while? I need to use the restroom?"

Tyra nodded. "Don't take too long".

"Mm".

Ariel left.

The young girl saw two ladies walk towards her. They had sweet smiles on their face but, she couldn't tell why she found them creepy.

"Hey", one of them said. "I'm Sally".

"And I'm Kimberly. Kim for short".

The youngster smiled.

"Then, what's your name?"

The girl smiled. "I'm not telling".

Sally was pained. She cursed her fate. She wondered why Kiera would make them do this. This wench was so bad!

"It's still fine. You'd tell us eventually", Kim said. She seemed to be more wise and astute than Sally. Sally was always brazen and didn't think straight before doing something.

"Here", Kimberly offered her a drink. "You should drink with us".

"I don't drink".

"Hey, don't lie. We know you're 18 and you're already qualified for it".

"But, I don't want to!"

They were about to badger her when a sensual, smooth, crystal and clear voice came from behind.

"Hey, baby girl, come here. There's something interesting to show you".

The little girl turned. A young lady, clad in black which accentuated her fair skin stood behind her. She had a pure smile on her face and deep down, she knew that she was here to save her.

The young girl tried to walk towards Ariel but Sally held her back.

"We were with you before she came".

"But, I don't want to talk to you".

Sally blanched. So straightforward!!

The young girl left with Ariel and they went to where she and Tyra was staying.
