chapter 5 "Stupid reasons"

fu*k

This woman again.

What is she doing with Danila?

Danila needs some good beating from him for sure. Aiden narrowed his eye at the woman infront of him. Crystal just awkwardly smiled at him.

"hmm, Hi," She slowly whispers.

"What are you doing here?" His voice was slight raise.

No outsider or even employees were allowed in here. How can she enter his office without permission, and she even dares to enter the company. It seems he needs to change the security.

Daniel felt like a third wheel standing in between two love birds. "Well, my job was to deliver your women to you. Now I will take my leave. See you later" He winked at Crystal.

"I am not his women."

"She is not my woman."

Both of them yelled at the same time.

"Ya whatever," Daniel said and walked out. He closed the door behind his back and looked at the two women approaching the office.

Daniel looked at them with a raised eyebrow. Noticing him, the two ladies employed stopped and greeted him.

"Why are you two here? No employees are allowed near the president office."

"Sir Daniel, this file needs to be signed by Mr President. We couldn't find Sir Jacob, so we thought to come by ourselves."

"Alright, give that to me. You both can go" Danial took the file from them and went to place it in Jacob office. He opened the door of Jacob office and kept the file on the desk. He was about to go away, but his eye landed on a file that was already opened. It was someone's profile. He grabs it and pulls it closer to read it. His lips turned into a smirk when he noticed Crystal photos and her information.

Till then, Jacob came inside his office. His eyes widen when he notices the file in sir Daniel's hand. He was indeed going to die today. His boss said to keep it secret.

"Sir Daniel...the file", Jacob shuttered.

"Mr President is interested in the girl, hmm" Daniel placed the file back on the desk.

"Don't disturb Aiden for a while. Don't let anyone in, ok."

"Yes, sir" Jacob immediately replied and closed the file. Daniel went away with his hands in his pocket and with a pleased expression. Totally forgetting about his angry wife.

Inside the office.

"Why are you here?"

Crystal bit her lips in nervousness. "I need your help."

" And why do you think I will help you in any way, women ?"

Crystal was shocked and embarrassed. Yes, why would he help her? She decided it was too late to back out now. Crystal felt cold sweat drip down her back. She did so much to come here and ask for his help, but she did not think about the question. What if he did not help her? In her previous life, he made the publishing company disappear in one night. There was no damage done to his image. She was the one who faced everything.

Aiden watches this woman infront of him freeze on her spot. Her expression was very animated.

"Don't make me repeat myself, women. I have much important work to do other than this."

"It's important. It will also help you," She added.

"Help me?

That sound interesting. He murmured 'humm' to himself and leaned back on his chair.

"Who do you think you are to help me?"

Crystal contemplated with all her to explain him.

He fixed his eyes on crystal amusedly. Since he was born, nobody had behaved so senselessly. The first thought that came to his mind was that this woman was too shameless to try to con him in his office. Many women had fallen on their knees for him, but this woman had a unique way to do so. First, she dares propose to him, and now she is here in need of his help. This woman had really perked his interest.

However, his thought was proved wrong as Crystal opened her mouth to explain her situation.

"You see, there was someone who clicked photos of our last night. As you know, my father is a famous businessman and one of your business partners, if the images were licked my reputation will be destroyed in the society. It will also affect my father's business, and in some way, your image will be harmed, so if you help me, it will benefit you too.

Crystal felt her nerves tense up once more after she finished her words. He had a blank expression. She couldn't read what was going on in his mind.

He blankly gazed at her and opened his lips.

" If you think this kind of thing will affect me. You are very wrong. It will just increase my popularity. I don't see any benefit in helping you here."

"It's your own business, not mine. Do you really believe it will benefit me? Just get lost."

He spoke with a frosty expression.

"Huh?"

Crystal's mind blanked out. She has no words to say. If it doesn't affect his reputation, then why did in her previous life he make that media house disappear. If it wasn't him who did that, then. Was she wrong from the beginning?.

His words were considered reasonable.

"It was childish to think you've got a clutch on someone for such stupid reasons".

His words made Crystal guilty. Her expression turned sad. She had been worked up just a while ago, but now she stood in complete silence.

"Then I am really sorry to disturb you, Mr President, I will take my leave."

Aiden didn't like her sad expression. Her eye seemed like they were about to cry. But he didn't said anything and let her go.

After Crystal left his office, Aiden focus was gone. He couldn't do any work.

After thing about Crystal's words, he called Jacob inside.

Jacob immediately entered, adjusting his glasses.

"Yes, the president."

"Check all the CCTV of the bar and outside the room, I stayed in. If you find something suspicious, report it to me immediately. "

"Yes, Mr President."

Jacob walked toward the exit but stopped in his step after remembering something. He turned around and walked toward Aiden.

"Mr President. There was an invitation letter from Hament Eva for his youngest daughter's 20th Birthday party. Would you like to attend it"

"Youngest daughter... Crystal Eva"

Aiden lip curled upward as he thought of something; he looked at Jacob.

"Jacob, do something for me first."

Crystal remembered to call uncle Matt as she promised and directly went home. She had done her best to fight against her own faith. Whether everything progressed quickly was up to the gods now. She had done all she could do.

Some maids greeted her on her way back. When she reached her room, she threw herself on the bed. And slept. She will leave everything to god now.

help….

Somebody help… I don't want to die…. Help…. Crystal called for help. She felt leather wipes landing one after another on her skin, tearing the flesh. She was completely disabled and was pleading for help.

She screamed at the top of her lungs for help. She saw laughing. She saw her mother, her sister and Zean macron laughing at her.

"We won't leave you crystal, you will die with your father and that bitch friend, Slut like you don't deserve them. This is your fath…. Now… Die…." .

"No…. " Crystal shouted as she woke up. Her entire body was trembling as she was sweating all over.

She looked around herself and signed in relief Just a nightmare… just a nightmare….

She took deep breaths, calming herself when she heard a light knock on her door.

Miss crystal, you have a parcel. She heard one of her maids said.

Crystal frowned her eye. She never ordered anything online.

Who send a parcel to her. She went ahead and opened the door. She saw the maids carry a big box and place it on her bed.

"Miss your father asked you to get ready for the party. "The maids bowed and walked out of her room.

Crystal saw the time as her eye widened. It was already 6 Pm. She didn't even have a proper dress. Crystal signed and sat beside the big box. She pulled the string of the blue box, and the rope and wrapping opened.

She removed the upper cap of the box, and her lips curled into a beautiful smile; her eyes shined with excitement.
