Chapter 17- The Beginning (Part- 4)

Aleina was standing right behind the nauseating men who were molesting the waitress, despite the fact that she might be even younger than their daughters.

Aleina had a sinister smile on her face, which she suppressed quickly and spoke in a chilly, freezing tone while taking out her phone from her purse. She pretended to talk on the phone with someone, and the conversation shocked all the sleazy, perverted old men.

"Brother Edward, I'm in the corridor right now and I think I saw some of your managers who are acting like animals in heat!"

Perverted Man 1: 0_0

Perverted Man 2: °_°

Old Man 3: ●__●

Old Man 4: ╥﹏╥

Although Aleina was shorter than those men but she gave them a condescending stare, as if looking down on them from above.

The men instantly stopped what they were doing and straightened their backs; shocked to their bones at being caught.

The men were probably 45- 50 years old. They were all clad in expensive business suits and their appearance could easily fool anybody into thinking them as sophisticated rich old men.

But this was the reality of life.

All that glitters is not gold.

The immoral men were shocked at the mention of Edward and the contents of her conversation. They did not had to think twice before they came to the conclusion that the Edward mentioned by Aleina was none other than Edward Roberts; the President of Glory Entertainment, their boss.

The perverse men turned around to face the intruder while shaking in nervousness. They looked up as their sight shifted from the ground and they were shocked when they a say a young girl as beautiful as a nymph standing with an intimidating aura, with a phone on her fair exquisite ear.

One of those men was not present when Edward, Maria and Aleina made their grand entrance so; he was oblivious that the young lady standing in front of him could cost him his job at Glory Entertainment. He just took Aleina as a naive rich little girl who was trying to play the hero.

While all the other men were shaking nervously as soon as they recognised Aleina as Edward's close acquaintance, that one idiot old man who seemed to be in his late 40s and also the richest among those men, Mr. Charles came forward, and started staring at Aleina while shifting his gaze from her head to toe.

Aleina was perplexed at this new predicament. She was getting anxious but tried her best to hide it as she continued her facade of talking to Edward on the phone.

"Brother Edward, I'm in the corridor that leads to the ladies room..... Oh... okay.... you are sending some guards?.... Sure, I'll be waiting right here with these employee of yours"

If any director would have seen Aleina's acting, he would have surely cast her in movies!

Aleina was really acting to the best of abilities which made her whole act seem true. But even though she kept talking on the phone as if she was having a real conversation, she was anxious from the inside.

She knew that these conniving men would not be easily convinced and her goal wasn't even to convince them. No. She was merely buying herself some time in order to find the perfect moment to escape with the young waitress.

Almost all the men were convinced and started having an ominous feeling after listening to Aleina. Even Mr. Charles was partially convinced and frowned as he thought about what was about to happen but, years of being a businessman had led him to be astute about everything.

Just as he was about to retreat and leave the girls alone, Aleina's phone had an incoming message which made screen of the phone which she was holding near her ear, light up.

Mr. Charles got suspicious again he saw a light near Aleina's phone. He took a step closer to Aleina in a bid to have a closer look at her phone.

When Aleina saw him stepping closer to her, she became more anxious and hurriedly started talking on the phone again to scare those men.

"Ah! Brother Edward! I think one of these men wants to talk to you directly. Wait a second, I'll pass the phone to him so that you can talk to him NICELY" Aleina purposely emphasised on the word 'nicely'.

After speaking those words she removed her hand with which she was holding her phone, and extended it towards Mr. Charles who was standing just a few inches away from her.

Aleina was portraying a confident stance on the front but deep down she knew was doing a dangerous bargain as she tried to pass the phone to the middle aged man; Mr. Charles, who was standing there with both his hands in his pockets as he stared hard at the phone.

He had a complicated gaze as he kept looking at the phone while the other men were equally nervous to not offend both the parties.

After a minute of consideration, he hesitatingly, grabbed the phone from Aleina's hand.

Aleina was shocked, and with wide eyes she let him take her phone from her hand as she thought

'This is my chance. I have to grab the girl as fast as I can before they catch me.'

After thinking this, she exactly did what she thought.

While Charles was placing the phone near his ear to speak, Aleina shoved him which resulted in Charles falling on the group of men standing right behind him and they all fell on the carpeted ground like rolling pins.

"RUN! NOW!"

Aleina screamed as she grabbed the dishevelled young waitress and started running aimlessly. She didn't see where she was going and just ran as she knew those nasty old men would definitely be furious at the realization that they had been played a little girl. And she wasn't wrong.

As soon as Charles knocked down along with the other men, it didn't take him long to understand and realise that they have been played like a fool by a little girl.

"AAAH! FUCK! Catch those bitches and drag them to my feet. NOW! I don't fucking care who the fuck that girl is! I want them and especially her on my bed tonight! GO!"

Charles screamed at the top of his lungs as he furiously ordered the group of men to do his bid.

One of those men hesitated at Charles's words and said,

"Mr. Charles, I don't think that girl is to be messed around with. I saw her entering with Mr. Ed-"

SLAP!

Before the man could even finish speaking, Charles had slapped him, hard, right across his face as he was fuming red with rage and screamed,

"SHUT THE FUCK UP! I don't care if they are acquainted with even the fucking mafia! Get them to me right fucking now! I will teach that fucking vixen the consequences of fooling me! I am going to make her fucking scream my name all night after I'm done with her! Fuck off now!!"

The men immediately dispersed after having a look at Charles fury. They were hesitating previously as they had seen her making an entrance with Edward but after witnessing as to how Aleina fooled them, they thought that maybe she wasn't so close to Edward otherwise she would have called him for real.

With this thought, they started chasing in the same direction as Aleina and the young waitress ran.

Charles, who was rubbing his sore butt after the abrupt and hard fall, didn't know that his words would really come true and that in just a few hours, he would be regretting his words as he would beg for his life.
