Chapter 8

Chapter 8- Lie to her

"You're right, I'm not confident in selling myself. Since it's like that, how about this? I'll sell you instead. I heard that gay bars are famous lately. You're handsome and a celebrity I'm sure you'll sell well. I can already see a lot of money coming in."

Jewel said this long dialogue while staring at Lavor, holding her lower chin. She looks like, she was really planning something on Lavor.

Lavor becomes scared because of this. Right now, it's only the two of them in the house. He has no money, no phone, no cars, he has nothing at all. If Jewel really decides to do something to him, then he has no one to help him and nothing to shield himself.

Lavor this time was reminding himself not to tease Jewel again, since it will only come back to him when he teased Jewel.

"Ah! How about I borrow your phone instead?" Lavor said to divert the topic. He said this full of enthusiasm as if he just had a very bright idea on how to solve a very problematic problem.

His face was full of smiles while looking at Jewel, also hoping to influence the person with his smile. In that way, the person would also smile and already stop looking scary.

But instead of what Lavor was expecting, Jewel didn't smile but just stare at him instead. She looks like she was looking at an idiot.

Only after rolling her eyes did she answer him.

"I'll go get my phone." Jewel answered Lavor blandly. She then walks into her room without looking back at him.

Lavor could only helplessly look at Jewels' back and sigh. Now that he remembers, he hasn't thanked Jewel yet for saving him that night.

It also can't be helped, it's because she talked to him like that, that he forgot to thank her.

Lavor 'sigh' again.

Forget it, he's indebted to her for saving him. If she didn't comes that night, he might lose consciousness in the middle of the road, what if the one who drug him caught up to him. He might be all over the news now.

Or if Jewel decides to leave him there, who knows what happened to him already, dying might also be one of the options.

He stopped from his thinking when he saw a hand with a phone in front of him. When he looked up, he saw Jewel looking at him.

Before he could say anything, Jewel talks first.

"Call, after that, give it back to me. Don't use it for anything else." Jewel said, still without emotions in her tone.

When Jewel said this, Lavor forgot again about the matter of thanking Jewel.

Lavor can't help thinking again that this girl was really different from the girls he used to know. She knows that he's a celebrity but still treats him like this. If it was someone else in her position, it would be a different story.

"Alright! What else am I going to use it for?" Lavor can't help but answer back.

When he looks down and looks at the phone. The phone was already set to dial. There's no need and no chance for you to explore, all you need to do was typed the number of the person you want to call, then done.

That girl is really, he can't help but sigh again.

"What are you 'sigh'-ing for?"

Lavor immediately raises his head. Then he saw Jewel looking at him while raising her left eyebrow. The girl was actually still there and was just looking at him.

"What? I'm not doing anything yet." Lavor instead of answering but asked back, showing Jewel her phone. Wanting to tell her that he was not lying.

What does this girl want? He hasn't even touched anything yet.

But instead of saying something, Jewel just gestures her hand as if telling him to call already.

Lavor looks down to look at the phone, then looks up again. Jewel was still there looking at him.

Lavor can't help thinking that Jewel wanted to listen to his conversation on the phone.

'What a rude person.' Lavor can't help thinking like this.

In the end, he just let the person be. He just starts typing the number on the phone. He taps the 'call' button then looks up. But when he looked up, he found out that Jewel was not there already.

Lavor was a bit shocked.

'Was that girl a ghost or what? Maybe she was a ninja in her past life that's why she can come and go without a sound. That makes sense, she has a cold personality too.' Lavor can't help thinking like this because of Jewels' behavior.

Lavor then goes outside of the house to make the call.

______________

Jewel gets the clothes from the washing machine and washes them for the second time. She was thinking of airing the clothes at the back of their house, but when she passed on a certain window, she heard Lavors' voice.

She's not a nosy person, but she just can't help but stopped and listen. She's not going to listen for the whole conversation, just for a bit. Lavors' back was facing the door so he can't really see her.

She didn't even hide, she just stands where she is and listen.

"Can't you give me a vacation? I just finished my concert." Lavor said full of authority.

Lavor can't help being annoyed, his the boss but he can't decide on his own vacation, does he still need his people's approval.

That's right, he's the boss. The entertainment company was owned by his grandmother but since she has passed away, the company was now transferred to him. But not many people know, including his father because on the surface, it was his grandfather who was running the company

This was actually the reason why Lavor decided to become a celebrity, it was because of his grandmother. And now, he was already planning on withdrawing as a celebrity. Of course, he can't be a celebrity and a company's president at the same time.

— Sir, of course, you can have a vacation, but now is not the right time for that. You still need to attend the press conference that was scheduled for next week. If you promise to come back before that day, of course, you can have your vacation.— this answer was from the phone and Jewel can't hear it.

The person on the phone was actually Blake, his manager as a celebrity and a secretary when his the boss.

Blake knows his boss well, this person who just became the company's president was really uncaring. They've been together for more than 5 years. At first, Lavor was the companys' new celebrity that was assigned under him. As the only grandchild of the company's owner, Lavor was not irresponsible but he was really stubborn, bold, and unconcerned. Now that he became the company's boss, he became even more audacious and daring enough to do what he thinks of wanting to do while being unconcerned with the people around him.

" I'm staying here for a month. How about this, you attend the press conference and tell them about the news. The media will go crazy about the news, so it's better for me to be away there for the time being." Lavor said to the phone. Saying full of confidence, as if wanting to also tell Blake that what he said made sense and was right.

But before the person on the phone could answer back, he talks again.

" Right, my car was at Gene's house. My wallet and phone were inside, get it and make some time to meet me tomorrow and give it to me." Lavor gave his order again.

—Lavor ... *sigh* alright, I'll send it to you. Give me the address of where you're staying at." Blake just gives up. He decided to just talk to Lavor in person.

"It's alright, you don't need to know where I'm staying. Just give me an address and I'll come to you tomorrow."

When Jewel heard this, she can't help frowning her forehead. This person was really planning on staying at their house for a month. And base on what she heard, he doesn't have a vacation, he just decided to have a vacation on his own. What an irresponsible person, and it also seems like he doesn't want to let the other party know where he was staying.

But never mind that, the point is, understanding the situation base on what she heard, the person that Lavor was talking to on the phone was actually still here in this country he and he also knew someone from here or someone who lives near here. That means that Lavor actually lied to her, how dare this person lied to her.

These were already the second time. The first one is what happened last night when he gangs up with her family and now she found out that Lavor was just actually lying to her.

Then let him know what it's like to lie to her. You don't want to let people know where you are, then I'll let them know where you are.
