Elina followed the man in a suit who appeared to be a guard of Chief Brennon. Taking her to where he was seated, at a reserved spot in the restaurant. The part he was on, was like a minibar and he was clearly being entertained by a stripper.
The smoke from his cigarettes, drugs, and white substance all around him, made her feel sick.
“He’s in here, ma’am.” The guard ushered her in.
Elina nodded curtly and took in a deep breath.
This was it.
She steps in while sliding the curtain.
He held a pipe in his mouth and there was a gun on the table. He looked young for an old man like him.
How come he looks so young? Like a man in his late forties. She could see the replica of Kenzo, in those composure.
He should be counting the sixties now.
This was her first time seeing him. His face was narrow and dark eyes like Kenzo's, he was tall, and there was no potbellied as she had pictured him to have.
He was the opposite of what she had been thinking of, this was the man they called Chief?
Was it Chief Brennon?
He looked so much like Kenzo.
What was this?
He is his father, right?
But why was Kenzo talking about finding his identity again, when he’s the son of Brennon?
What exactly was he trying to find out?
It would stir up war between the two men, that’s what he wanted.
War?
Is that what Kenzo wants?
Well...
She has to find all that out tonight.
She had to stop thinking about him, or else she might ruin the moment because Chief Brennon's eyes had been on hers.
“You’re Celia Morgan.” His baritone voice came up.
“Yes...” She gave him a flirtatious smile. He sat upright, taking his legs off the table. He told the stripper in the room to leave.
She scurried out of sight.
Then, slowly he stood up with the pipe in his mouth, marched down to Elina, and wheezed smoke into her face.
“You’re beautiful.” He complimented.
She forced out more smile and held back her breath for a moment.
“It’s an honor to be flattered by a man like you.” She mouthed.
He took her right hand in his and kissed it.
Her smile almost turns to a grimace.
Geez!
So-called married men!
She stares at her hand with disgust, hiding it with a bright smile. She just has to play along for Kenzo’s sake.
She was fucking doing this with his father, Kenzo is so shameless!
Argh.
The thought was getting her pissed off.
“Sit.” He points down to the two-seater he was seated on before.
She sat beside him with a crossed leg.
Showing off her thighs. Since the gown was slit at the side, stopped just a few inches away from revealing her underwear.
She was exposing them all to him, his eyes were fixed on her body.
“I was surprised when someone like you asked to meet me. Can I ask why you wanted to see me?” He asked with a smirk.
“How about I get us a drink, then we can talk. Drinks on me.” Elina grinned, turning her head to the side, so he doesn’t see her fake smiles.
So he wasn’t the one who set up a meeting but it was Kenzo who did?
He lied to her.
Asshole!
“I like the sound of that.” Chief Brennon chuckled.
“Sambas...” Kenzo called.
“Yes, Boss,” Sambas answered immediately.
“Has she got in?”
“Yes. She’s in, right now.”
“Keep an eye on her and don’t hesitate to pull the trigger if anything happens.” He ordered.
He was in the restroom, staring at himself in the mirror. She wanted this to end quickly and he doesn’t want her to get hurt in his mess.
Chief Brennon was smart, and he would have looked into her, search about her to know If she was fake or not, but he had got that all arranged. Her fake parents. Her college degree. And everything, he might be smart but he wasn’t close to him.
He smirked at the mirror and splashed the water on his face.
When he found out about her and see that there was nothing to worry about her identity, he might decide to keep her at his side as one of his mistresses.
He rinsed his face and wipe them with a towel. He had to change his suit because of Zara. Aziel must’ve taken her home or maybe she’s still around, drinking.
He ruined the date, what the fuck should he have done when his thoughts were entirely on someone else?
“Ah Fuck. I should have told them to fix a camera beforehand. Why did I fucking miss that?” He grit out angrily.
He should have know what was going on in the room with Elina but now he can’t, because of a silly mistake he made.
Elina came back with three bottles of vodka. He dropped it in front of him and uncap. Pouring it in his glass and hers.
“So what did you study? You look young,”
“Business.” She winked at him.
“What type of business?” He seems amused with her.
“Men.” She mouthed.
He laughed.
Elina smiled and sip from the glass.
“Mind introducing me to your sons, I might
get lucky to get married into your family.”
“Interested in my sons now?” She watched him to a gulp of the drink and drop the glass. She gladly refills his glass. She runs his callous hands down her bare thighs.
“Or you just wanna f**k them?” He turned and met her gaze.
“I might as well do that.”
He chuckles.
“Just stick to me.” He muttered, his voice sounding hoarse.
“Will you make me part of the family? I wanna be called Mrs. Brennon.” She took his hand away from her thighs and kept them on his laps.
“You have a lot of ambition.” He chuckled and took another swing.
“I have a son. That I can't tell the word he's my son, after what I did,” He slurred, his eyes were fluttering. He rubbed them furiously.
The drug she slipped into his drinks was probably working already.
It was the drug that was gonna make him talk, Kenzo was the the one who gave it to her.
“I book a room, we should discuss there. Let's get to know ourselves better.” He kept on blinking his eyes as if forcing to keep them open.
She nods and stood up. Taking her purses along with her.
Brennon was up on his feet, he staggered backwards falling back on the chair.
He forced himself up again.
“Let’s go together..”
He places her hands on hers. So she could help him walk. They walked out of the room they were.
“Chief are you okay?” The guard who has led Elina in asked.
“I’m fine...” He waved the guard off.
“I’m going to have rest. Go somewhere with the rest and have a drink. I’ll pay.” H
“Chief...” He tried to protest.
He quelled him with a look. The guard gave Elina a suspicious look and walked away.
He was leading her out when they met Kenzo coming out of a restroom along the hallway.
They both halted.
The private suite was upstairs and it was given only to VIPs.
Chief Brennon stares at Kenzo for a moment too long, Kenzo’s eyes were fixed on the hands on her waist.
“C’mon on.” He urged her after a while.
They walked past Kenzo on the door whose eyes were fixed on them the whole time.
He couldn’t leave Elina alone after what he saw, he followed them upstairs.
They entered a room and shut the door behind them, Kenzo leaned on the door but couldn’t hear anything that they were discussing.
He clenched his fist when he started to hear a sound, which sounded in his ears like a moan.
He wanted to barge in, and pull him away from her and ripped him to pieces.
He was having a lot of self control at this moment, Elina should be grateful.
He peeps through the keyhole. What was she doing to him?
He was fighting with the urge not to open the door. Else he would have broken the door and dragged her out of the room.
“Boss!” Sambas whispered yelled.
He hadn’t expected to see his boss in that position, guess that was the room they'd entered.
Why was he peeping through the keyhole? It couldn’t be what he was thinking could it?
He smiled but quickly hide it.
His boss was worried about her. Wasn't it obvious?
Kenzo moved away from the door pretending he was doing something else.
He made his lowered his voice and dragged him into a room that was opposite, the one Elina entered.
“Chief knows I’m here, I don’t know if he would suspect Elina now because she stopped walking when she saw me.”
“I don’t think he would, Boss.” Samba rubbed his jaw though he wasn’t sure.
“.The drugs should have been making effect now don’t you think.” He sat on the bed, tapping his feet impatiently on the ground. He clamps his hands together. He was worried.
“Had Zara left?” He looked up and stare at Sambas.
“She’s still at the bar. Aziel is keeping his eyes on her.”
He nodded and run his hands over his hair.
“Why is she taking so long?” He whispered to himself.
He couldn’t help but worry about Elina.
If anything happens to her, he will never forgive himself.
“Argh!” They heard a scream.
Kenzo jumped up from where he was seated.
He heard the voice, that was Elina’s voice. What’s happening.
The shout came again.
Kenzo ran out of the room. Without giving it a second thought.
If something happened to her, he won’t spare that man.
“Boss!” Sambas yelled but he was already out of the room.
