Chapter Five Hundred“This, this, this and this.” Maya called out lazily, pointing at attires which were hanging from different racks in front of her.She was sitting down on the very comfortable sofa provided her by the sales girls in the mall, which was normally reserved for their very important customers.There were little trolleys filled with assorted cakes and drinks, all for her dining pleasure. There was a salesperson behind her who was gently massaging into her shoulder, while Maya looked her head around, taking everything in.Another knelt before her and propped her foot on a small pouffe, while massaging it gently as well.“You have such beautiful feet, Miss,” they all cooed as they pampered her.Maya was feeling like she was in the seventh heaven by now. She looked at the sales person kneeling before her and massaging her feet and smirked.“All this for a commission,” she scoffed internally, “What a lowlife.”She snapped her fingers and the sales people took off the attires
Chapter Four Hundred And Ninety-NineMaya stepped out of her car, right in front of the HEART BEAT Mall. This was the biggest fashion mall in the city, featuring all sorts of clothing from high end designers from all over the world.She raised her eyes for as high as she could taking in the extremely tall skyscraper where the mall was located.“Ah!” She cried out softly as her neck nearly snapped back from the way she bent it looking at the skyscraper.Oh, it felt so good to be outside!She wanted to squeal and jump and twirl her skirt around, but she knew that would not be beckoning of the status which she was upholding at the moment. She was the fiancée of the chairman of the freaking Romero Empire.Lana Fernandez.There was no way she was going to embarrass herself right outside in public on such a good day. She was going to embody this identity so well that even Lana Fernandez herself would be getting her to take lessons on how to be herself.Her eyes swept the surroundings of th
Chapter Four Hundred And Ninety-EightDirector Evans jumped in alarm as Paul whispered that in his ears. Without a second thought, he hissed at the assistant.“You fool, what do you think you’re doing?” He whispered fiercely at the young man, careful not to draw attention.Confused at Director Evans’s words, the driver reluctantly got to his knees and looked round in confusion for a minute, not knowing what to do.“Get out of here!” Director Evans ordered and the driver took off, unwilling to make Director Evans or Lana pissed once more.He hurried out of the restaurant and only when he was out the door was Director Evans relieved and he breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Lana who had a calm and unperturbed expression on her face as she ate her meal.“Miss Lana,” he started saying, about to apologize to Lana once more.Lana dropped her fork on her plate and glared at him, her eyes almost glittering in the dim light, “Do not even try to apologize. I’ve had enough from you and you’
Chapter Four Hundred And Ninety- SevenThey all boarded their various cars and prepared to drive off.Director Evans’s assistant could not help but give hard looks to Lana as he held the door open for his master. Director Evans was limping as he was led to his car.How could she make him kneel on the cold floor for that long?She really was a vixen and he did not know why his master had ever thought that she would be of help to him.“Director Evans sir, did we really have to come here?” He asked stiffly, raising his eyes proudly and giving Lana a glare once more.Lana did not seem to notice as she boarded her car with the rest of the men and they drove off, revving off dust as they passed Director Evans and his car.Director Evans had settled down in his car when he heard his assistant’s question. He saw the glare that the assistant was giving to Lana and in alarm, he quickly reached out and smacked the head of the young man in anger.“Do you have a death wish?” He asked the assistant
Chapter Four Hundred And Ninety-SixDirector Evans was on his knees without saying anything for a long time, silently beseeching Lana to take pity on him.Lana turned her face away from him but she could not outrightly stop seeing him. She could still see him through the corner of her eyes and she could see that he was being extremely sincere.The other men were thinking Director Evans was not doing enough, however. They sat stiffly with arms crossed as they looked at the old man kneeling before them.Served him right for being so greedy.He almost lost his life because of greed and almost ruined someone else’s legacy.This was a small price that he had to pay. Merely kneeling down in front of Lana and begging for her forgiveness was not going to cut it.However, Lana suddenly sighed, her eyes closed in frustration. She was not a mean woman, except she can be very deadly when anyone decides to touch anything or anyone that belonged to her.Director Evans on the other hand was someone
Chapter Four Hundred And Ninety-Five“Tell me, did Laura ever said anything in direction to what I was saying before she died?” Director Evans asked with a tinge of desperation in his voice.“No.” Lana answered simply, almost throwing his words back into his mouth.Director Evans was frustrated but he decided to try again, “Did she leave anything for you before she died?” He asked cautiously this time,, “Something that might lead in that direction. Possible something like a written note or something.”Lana was about to repeat the same “No” when she stopped as something came to her memory.She had indeed received a parcel from Laura at her death.The purple lacquer box that contained the tapes that revealed evidence of her murder as well as a hand written letter that was addressed to her.She frowned softly as that thought ran through her mind.Could that be what Director Evans was referring to?Surely, it was not right. Subconsciously, she turned slightly in her seat and directed her
