Rihana led Dylan to a deserted parking lot. She guided him toward her car, to give Dylan a change of clothes as she had promised."You come alone, miss?" asked Dylan, walking behind Rihana."Yes, I came alone.""But, wait a minute... doesn't it seem like I know you?""Yes?" Rihana looked at Dylan."You're Rihana Barney? A famous influencer from New Orleans, right?" Rihana smiled as Dylan recognized her. "You're an influencer who is famous for donating, and you're a cosmetics entrepreneur who started your career without any help from your father, even though your father is a successful businessman. Wow... I didn't expect to meet you here.""You're praising me too much, sir, I'm not that good.""That's not a praising, Miss, that's the truth," Dylan said, already telling the truth but Rihana was treating him as if he was teasing her.She was more narcissistic than Dylan thought."But I'm quite surprised, you don't look this sexy on social media. I'm sorry, I'm just confused as to which on
Victor was still waiting for Dylan to give him a message. Anxiously, he followed Vander's advice to keep waiting even though he could have followed Dylan to the place he was gonna meet with Rihana."Don't let the target think that her meeting with the strange man was something planned. People with faults will usually be sensitive to all forms of traps, because they're afraid of being found out. Let Mr. Rall do his job, let the meeting and their relationship feel as natural as possible."Although Victor felt worry, he tried to restrain himself and remembered that his excessive worry would make Dylan feel insecure."Even though I'm the one who asked him to go, I'm worried more than anyone else," Victor said.Victor tapped his fingers on the kitchen table, then chose to go to bed with a glass of water which he drank as he turned over.But he was shocked. Choking on the water he'd drunk, he spit it out when he saw Violet walking around with a wet body, covered only by a towel that covered
Victor and Violet rushed to the place Dylan had mentioned—a small motel not far from the club Dylan had gone to. When they arrived at the room Dylan was in, they both saw him sitting on the bed, facing the open window. His gaze was blank and empty, like he had just experienced something incredible that he never imagined he would do in his entire life. "Dylan!" Victor called out. "Vic, this is messed up. I messed everything up," Dylan said, looking like he was about to cry, and Victor rushed over to him. "Victor, I'm sorry; I messed up our plan. I fell into that woman's trap and... and... and slept with her." Violet was so dumbfounded that she opened her mouth wide enough to cover it with her hand when she heard Dylan's confession. So that was the reason Dylan was looking so disheveled in an unexpected place like this. "Dylan, I don't blame you. But I want to hear your explanation; how did you end up sleeping with that woman?" "I was drunk. I thought I'd approach her in a natural
Rihana Barney looked tense and shuffled around her room as if looking for something precious for her. She was anxious and looked scared when she couldn't find it anywhere. "Shit, shit, shit... how did I lose that thing?" she said, deeply distraught and with bags under her eyes. She kept biting her fingernails in panic and anxiety, imagining the terrible things that would happen if she didn't find them soon. And her nightmare came true as the door to her room was violently opened by someone who immediately approached her and grabbed Rihana's jaw with his muscular hand. "Are you out of your mind? How could you make such a mess of our important business?""I'm sorry, Rodhe; I didn't mean to mess it up." "You made a mess of everything! Don't you know how much I've lost?" The man named Rodhe pushed Rihana to the ground, not caring how scared she was because of his anger, and he only cared about his panic after his business got messed up. "I asked you to deliver the order to our custom
VVictor threw the small plastic bag of cocaine powder on the table, where Vander, Vania and Violet could see it with wide-open, surprised faces."Cocaine?" asked Violet, almost incredulous, "and you found it in the pocket of the coat Dylan was wearing that night?""Yes, and it's a safe bet who put it in Dylan's coat.""Damn it. Did she want Dylan to use it too? Just because she was using it too? She spreading a harmful virus like that is such a trivial thing!""I don't know if she did it on purpose or not. I found that thing with the paper with the phone number on it." Dylan put down the paper with Rihana's phone number on it."This belonged to that woman?" asked Vania, and Victor nodded. "She was hoping Dylan would contact her again after giving her the forbidden thing? And... just because they spent the night together, she confidently gave Dylan the drugs. She's so confident, it's almost smug.""What do you expect from her, Vania?" Violet retorted. "I'm totally going to destroy her!
Xiel was busy with his computer screen and a dizzying amount of data, when Rodhe came in with a tired face and two cans of soft drinks for him."Thank you!" Xiel said as he received one, and Rodhe lay down on the sofa in the room."Are you happy living in a place like this?" asked Rodhe, drinking his drink while looking at the slightly worn ceiling of Xiel's apartment.Xiel asked, "What's wrong with this place?""The atmosphere is very tense. How long has it been since you changed the lights?"Xiel got up from his chair, walked over to the switch and clicked! The large lamp in the room lit up so brightly that it made Rodhe squint his eyes."What are you so chatty about today? Are you still mad at Rihana?" Xiel returned to his seat."How can I not be angry? She ruined my big deal with that prince from the Middle Eastern business empire. He paid a lot of money for my best cocaine, but now I'm seen as a fraud.""Then what if it is a real scam? They can't use the law to prosecute you anywa
"I don't think I told you my name or where I work before."Rihana was silent, frozen and for a moment she didn't know what to say.Although it was a bit nerve-wracking, but she had prepared the answers to such questions in advance."Or did I forget because I was drunk?""I did find out about you. Of course, I'm going to find out about the guy I like-"Once again, Dylan was stunned. "The guy you like?""I mean... that night was memorable, wasn't it?" asked Rihana, panicking slightly at Dylan's confused expression. "We seemed to like it. Did you feel impressed too?""Yeah... it was my first night, so of course it would impress me.""Oops! Really? That means you had your first night with a stranger woman. Geez, I'm really shameless. I'm sorry, Mr. Rall....""No, you don't need to apologize. As you said, there was no coercion whatsoever and... it seems that I did like that night." Rihana watched as Dylan shyly said it, and how he lowered his voice while averting his face. Rihana smiled and
"So she came to return your shirt?"Victor and Dylan finally met up to talk alone. They chose a café and booked a spot that was not close to the crowd so that they could have a relaxed conversation."Yes, but she said it was just a pep talk because her real purpose was something else.""Oh, I see...." Of course Victor understood. He had predicted Rihana would look for Dylan, because there was something she wanted to take back. "Then, did she talk about something else?""We just talked about things that weren't too serious, I guess you could say it was just getting to know each other-that's not much.""It seems like that woman is interested in you.""Huh? What?" Dylan looked nervous, as if he wanted to rush to interrupt even though Victor said it casually and seemingly spontaneously. "How is that possible? We just accidentally spent the night together and neither of us had any objections to what happened that night.""Yeah, not objecting isn't the same as her liking it? If she likes it
