(Chapter 27) Rich?

So the tyrant girl was sent off. Leaving Francesca in two minds.

She was happy that she didn't have to surrender her clothes in front of her friends. But she was also worried about how the girl would respond... She had been on the end of her anger more than once.

Winoa and Astrid noticed Francesca's mood and decided to go get something to eat. They chose a quiet spot to eat.

Astrid looked at what they offered and decided what she wanted. As Francesca ordered something based on her being hungry, Winoa also ordered what she wanted.

The food didn't take long to be sent over to them. As Astrid started to eat, she glanced at Francesca.

Sure enough, some food had made Francesca feel better. But she was still worried, as she couldn't eat with a clear conscience.

Winoa seemed to have noticed this and started to talk about some topics with a smile. Francesca seemed to be infected by Winoa's positivity and started to stop worrying about what happened.

"I'm going to the toilet." Astrid spoke as she finished eating, she had much faster than the other two since she was hungry.

Winoa and Francesca didn't think much of it. As Astrid went into the toilet she pulled out her phone and called her father. "Father, something happened..."

.......

Astrid came out and saw that Winoa and Francesca were both finished. "Come on, let's go." Winoa spoke up, as she saw Astrid coming back.

The girls then went around sightseeing the city. As the sun came down. They ended up walking the streets together.

"Ah, I saw this shop had something good." Astrid then suddenly spoke up, since she had barely spoken a word since finishing eating, Francesca thought she was tired or wanted to go home.

Francesca and Winoa both followed Astrid with no questions. As Astrid's eyes immediately became chilling. 'Thinking you can hurt us with such child's play. You must be braindead.' Astrid paid no attention to her cold surroundings. As she just walked with a slight smile.

The shop Astrid led them to was a small store that handmade scarves. Although the time for scars was nearly over, there was still a next year, and fashion is always changing.

The storekeeper was very happy to see three pretty girls enter her shop, she excitedly told them about her scarves and how she made them and so on...

Astrid quietly took her leave and walked outside the store. Just a few steps away, a group of gangsters were standing smoking.

"Huh, isn't she quite the beauty?" One of them spotted Astrid and immediately spoke up.

The group all looked to Astrid, and they all gave her a dirty look.

Astrid's looks alone could attract attention from men and women alike. But with the gangsters also being paid to do what they were asked... They were more than happy to 'service' her.

Astrid casually took out her phone and sent a message. Thinking nothing of it, the gangsters then swaggered up to Astrid.

"Hey girl, how do you feel about keeping us company for tonight?" The leader of the gangsters walked up to Astrid with a 'friendly' and 'inviting' smile.

Astrid didn't even look up to the gangster, but stayed looking down on her phone.

Seeing he was ignored, the leader was angered. She was just a little girl and she showed him such an attitude.

"Dear to ignore me huh? Boys, let's have some fun." The other gangster showed some dirty and vile smiles while looking at Astrid.

Astrid didn't lose her smile, she paid no attention as the men rushed up to her so they could have their dirty way with her.

As soon as they became reaching a distance to Astrid. A group of 6 men immediately surrounded her.

"W-Who are you?" Upon seeing the group of black-suited men, the gangsters lost their luster.

The men didn't speak but eyes the gangsters menacingly through their glasses the gangsters felt a pressure that trained bodyguards could pull off.

Upon realizing the bodyguards were better trained than them, they immediately lost the luster they had. *Cough* "W-We will be on our way." The leader spoke wistfully, he didn't want to get put in prison today.

"Astrid?" Francesca's voice then came from the shop door.

Astrid turned as the bodyguards then bowed towards Astrid and then took their leave. "Mm?"

Francesca had a strange look on her face, she had seen the shopkeeper's face change rapidly when she saw a group of gangsters suddenly walk up to a girl. Francesca then took a look and saw the exchange...

"You have bodyguards?" Francesca asked with a strange expression.

If Astrid had bodyguards, then she definitely must have some sort of background...

Astrid nodded, she had called her father to send over some bodyguards over to where the shop was. They were faster than expected.

"You... Do you have a lot of money?" Francesca knew that having hired bodyguards was expensive. So how much money did Astrid have?

Astrid nodded. "Come, we should be picked up soon." Astrid offered, for Francesca to come round her house.

Francesca was quiet as she took in Astrid's words. She felt a little sour that Astrid never said that she was quite rich.

'Our?' Then Francesca noticed something, were Winoa and Astrid going to the same place?

Winoa came out of the shop with a scarf around her neck, seeing Astrid and Francesca speaking she joined them. "Our car is here." Astrid said, in which Winoa nodded in reply.

Winoa noticed that Francesca followed them, since she was talking to Astrid she just guessed that her Young Miss had told her something.

The driver opened the doors for the girls to get inside, the car taken out was larger on purpose to allow the girls to be comfortable inside.
