Chapter 7

Justin stared at Jesse's face in the strip club parking lot, and after a while of contemplating, he said, "You remember the pretty lady we saw earlier when we were leaving the estate today?"

Jesse smiled and replied, "Yes, you mean the young lady that ran away from you when you tried to approach her?"

Justin glared at Jesse, but Jesse laughed out and apologized, "Forgive me, Boss."

Justin yelled, "Justin and not Boss! How many times do I have to remind you to stop calling me 'boss'?"

Justin never liked it when Jesse tried to maintain the master-to-servant relationship between them.

Jesse apologized, "I'm sorry, Justin, but you know your father will be angry with me if he finds out I'm being friends with you and also calling you by your name."

Justin replied, "I know, and that's why I want you to call me by my name, especially when we're not at home and in public places like this, to reduce the other people's eyes on me."

Jesse agreed, "Okay, Justin."

Justin sighed frustratingly and said, "I just seemed to like that young lady. I've been seeing her around, and I don't know how I'll approach her again."

Jesse replied, "I think you need to man up and approach her nicely. Most young ladies like her type would think you only want to sleep with her and dump her, as she looks so innocent."

Justin agreed, "Hmm, but she doesn't even want to hear me out. This is the fourteenth time I've been seeing her passing by and trying to approach her for the first time."

Justin was standing beside his red car, and Jesse's eyes widened in shock to hear Justin mention "fourteen times."

Justin didn't mind that the night had approached and his mother was calling his phone line, but he refused to pick up.

Jesse asked, "Fourteen times? Wow, Justin! I'm only just seeing her for the first time today."

Justin replied, "Yes, that's because you can't see how beautiful and naturally endowed she looks. As you have your eyes focused on the road, so leave her for me to be staring at her."

Jesse only smiled at Justin's words and asked, "Can we go back home now, Justin? It's already getting late, and it's already after 10 p.m."

Jesse stared at the other cars driving into the strip club parking lot, and he wasn't just hired as a driver for Justin alone, as he was also a trained bodyguard and fighter, to beat up anyone that dares to cross boundaries or harass Justin.

Justin sighed and replied, "Fine... it's okay."

Justin frowned, knowing he had no other option than to follow Jesse home. It was already late at night, so he entered the car's driver seat while Jesse entered the passenger seat and started the car engine, driving out of the strip club parking lot.

Arriving at the estate gate, the red car drove into the estate road that was slightly dark, with only the streetlights shining bright along the roadway.

The estate security men welcomed Justin after checking the car, allowing Jesse to drive into the estate street, knowing that Justin's father was the real owner of the estate. But they still had to do their job for the security purposes of other homeowners by searching Justin's vehicle.

Justin kept his eyes on the road, staring out through the car's slightly opened window beside him at the estate's beautiful street that led down to his father's mighty mansion.

Just then, a pretty young lady in her light blue gown rushed up to his car like she was being chased, and she ran up to his car's side and screamed out, "Excuse me, sir... please wait!"

Olima's voice cracked, startling Justin, who quickly sat up properly and stared back at her as Jesse drove the car past her.

The surroundings had turned dark, with the street lights only dimly shining on the beautiful, deserted street.

Justin couldn't see the lady's face, and Jesse cussed out again, "Damn it! Who was that idiot?"

Jesse immediately navigated the car steering wheel as he drove past Olima, not wanting to stop his car, as he didn't know if the young lady was a setup sent to make them stop, for their attackers to assassinate them.

Jesse only attempted to speed up the car and drive off entirely, but Justin's voice stopped him. "Stop the car first!"

Jesse was taken aback by Justin's outburst as he slowed down the car ahead and stared back at his young boss.

Before Jesse could ask, "Boss, I mean Justin, do you want me to stop the car here? We can't trust that lady. What if she's a witch or..."

Justin had already pushed his side door open and stepped down from the car as he rushed up to meet the young lady.

Jesse gasped out, "Boss!"

Justin had already run ahead to meet the young lady, making Jesse cuss out, "Damn it! Who was that lady?"

Jesse drove the car backward to keep in touch with Justin, instead of him stepping down from the car and parking it ahead. He followed Justin downward as Justin ran up to meet the young lady in her light blue dress.

However, Olima saw the red car that had earlier driven past her speedily stop ahead, making her hopeful that the car owner had heard her voice.

She was hopeful that the car owner would assist her in getting to the estate gate on time to meet the security men, as it was already very late.

But she saw a familiar figure approaching her that had stepped down from the car, and she immediately recognized him to be the same young man that had stopped her during the daytime.

Olima swiftly took to her heels and started running away as she saw Justin approaching her.

Justin was forced to scream out, "Wait!!! Where are you running to again?"

Olima didn't stop, as she had previously seen how Justin's black eyes had shamelessly raked over her body from her chest down to her waist, and the way he had smiled at her earlier with desire clearly written on his face.

She knew that he wanted to sleep with her, and that he was worse than the two other men that had tried to stop her earlier, as she didn't see those two men again.

Olima ran faster to get to the estate gate by herself, but she stumbled on a stone and fell to the ground, making Justin finally catch up with her. As he approached her while breathing heavily, and he stared down at her on the sandy floor.

Justin said, "Wow... that was an intense warm-up exercise tonight, miss."

Olima was breathing heavily as she laid on the floor, staring up at Justin's face as she met his dark, handsome gaze on her.

Justin was still resting his hands on his knees, bent and staring at Olima, as he tried to catch his breath.

Olima was extremely scared as she saw the young man crouch in front of her.

She thought he looked breathtakingly handsome, more than all the young men of his age that she had seen before.

Even in the night, Justin still looked neat in his red shirt and black suit trousers, with his short black hair on his head neatly cut and shaped perfectly to highlight his face.

Justin was still trying to catch his breath, and he asked her, "What are you doing outside here by the roadway at this late hour of the night?"

Justin stared at Olima's face as she laid on the floor, looking so helpless to his view.

She had run away from him earlier and only ended up falling to the ground in her almost transparent nightwear.

Olima begged, shivering, "Please... stay away from me."

Olima was scared that Justin might rápe her, and he frowned and replied, "I won't hurt you, okay. Come with me. It's very late now to be outside here alone."

Justin extended his right hand out to Olima to help her stand up from the floor, and she was scared, but she accepted his hand and stood up from the floor.

Justin felt his body electrified the moment he touched Olima's left hand and helped her stand up from the sandy floor, still holding her hand closely to himself before she would run away again.

Olima was breathing heavily, and Justin's eyes beseeched her body as he saw that Jesse had driven the car backward and approached them.

Justin's fist clenched on seeing that Olima looked hurt, and he asked her sternly, "What happened to you?"

Justin couldn't believe his eyes as he saw that Olima's face looked red and swollen. And the previous time he had seen her smooth, delicate face, there was no mark on it, nor did her face look red and swollen.

But now, she looked like someone who had been beaten or abused by someone.

He asked her, "Tell me. What's wrong? Who slapped you?"

Justin wanted to seek revenge on Olima's behalf, and she broke down in tears in his hold.
