"One Château Lafite Rothschild wine at table six, two bottles of Masseto at table nine, and another tray of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti on the third table from the stairs." Mia said beside me, following me to the bar while looking down at the piece of paper in hand.
I almost groaned loudly. I was tired as hell. My legs were aching and while I was no longer conscious of the bikini, it still felt uncomfortable whenever I saw men staring down at me.
I dropped
**This chapter is dedicated to Choo Ana, for the amazing comment you left in the lady chapter. And to those who reached out on Insta You are appreciated in every way. ♥️Ava.I cried softly as Mikhail took me out of the club, the cold air hit me as I realised we've stepped out, but I didn't raise my head, instead I snuggled closer to him, shivering slightly.I felt humiliated and used, and even though the Mafia hadn't touched me, there was something about my dignity that had broken and everyone watched.A part of me felt angry at Mia or everyone else who couldn't come to my rescue and while I knew that they couldn't challenge the Mafia, a part of me was upset they just watched silently.I sudde

Thank you all so much♥️Ava."I literally have nothing in here that's good for lunch! What is the appropriate outfit for a lunch anyway?!" I yelled, slamming my wardrobe door shut in anger before flopping on my bed, picking my phone once more."Calm down, let's think of something. Potty would be here any moment to take her phone." Avery said over the video call I had with her.It was a few more minutes to twelve and I was dreading having lunch with Mikhail Ivan
**This chapter is dedicated to Diana RzG for the review you dropped. And Shawna LeBouthillier for your continuous support. I appreciate you both♥️Mikhail."The construction of Alpha Base is in progress. We have a little issue with the Architect. Mr Sam, a very proud fool who's been wasting time in the designs. But finally, he's back to business as usual, and the-"I zoned out on the presentation from my team. I glanced at Zach who was paying attention, taking notes from our Manager who was standing in front of the board, explaining the current progress on our latest project.After five minutes, I was out of their conversation, and with one of the shareholders complaining about the slow progress, it wasn't hard to totally ignore them and thin
**This chapter is dedicated to Ambika Ramlogan for your continuous support, here and on my media pages. I deeply appreciate you. Thanks a lot♥️Ava.I followed Mikhail into the restaurant and was immediately blasted by the level of exquisitely of the building. On the outside, it looked like a regular restaurant. But stepping inside, it was a whole different interior.The first thing that caught my attention was the chairs, they appeared golden and glittered under the bright and huge chandeliers dangling from the high ceilings. There were mostly tables of two, but some families had four chairs.In front of the chairs were glass tables with a tiny vase that held what I figured was a rose in it. But none of these made me feel out of place, not the objects but the people in it.
Ava.I sat frozen in my seat as the lady who Mikhail had addressed as Karina, smiled wickedly at me.While she smiled, her eyes spoke of many emotions, hatred was buried in those bright blue irises, as well as a hint of jealousy.Why would she ever be jealous of me? I wondered.She had just called me trash. Would anyone be jealous of trash?I said nothing else, feeling gazes boring into me, and the tears gathered around my eyes. I finally snapped my gaze slowly to look at Mikhail.But as usual his expression had turned back to normal, unreadable but the way he fisted his palm on the table told me he was pissed. His eyes never left Karina who was still smiling at me, wai
Ava.I walked out the restaurant, my head bowed in shame, tears running down my face and my heart clenched in unfathomable pain. I could hardly breathe with all the emotions running into me at once, from pain to anger to sadness and back to embarrassment.I walked back under the blazing sun, glancing briefly at my watch to see it was almost four already. I had to be at the club at five.But standing outside the restaurant, the building towering behind me, I couldn't find it in me to move another inch. Everything was weighing down on my shoulders and it was getting harder to stay standing.I glanced down at the money peeking out of my purse. It was almost five thousand dollars from my rough counting. It was enough to get Avery her violin at least, a smile almost brok
Mikhail."What the hell were you even thinking?!" I yelled, stomping towards my desk as I glared hatefully at Karina who backed away from me.After leaving with Karina from the restaurant, I had felt guilt clawing at my heart to go back and comfort Ava who had been crying. There was something about watching her cry that sent shivers down my spine.And the words Karina had uttered were rude and hurtful. But what annoyed me more was the fact that I couldn't do anything about it. I was too shocked that Karina would go to such lengths to hurt someone else.However, it didn't shock me as much as when Ava took out her hand to shake Karina as a greeting. Did she have no shame? No pride?Greeting someone who just called you 'Tra
Ava.I walked into Billionaire's Club, waving at Jayden who had dropped me off."I might come pick you up when you close." He called out and I nodded, before turning away from him, nodding at the bouncers at the entrance.Loud music blasted off from the speakers as I entered the club, bright lights flashed around, illuminating the large room. I saw a couple of strippers gossiping at one of the small stages centered at various corners of the floor.I nodded at them when they glanced at me and they snickered before laughing and going back to their discussion.Seems like Aiden had hired a couple of bitches to work for him. Because everyone had an attitude problem here.
