POV: Louie
What is up with Sungah being flirty and seductive to my body all of a sudden.. doesn't she realize... that ISABEL IS FURIOUS AND STEAMING WITH ANGER.
We both remained silent as we stood there... Isabel slightly looking at me.. I can sense her trying to keep herself together but she's a rampaging beast inside..
"Hello? It is indeed nice to see you again." I offered to break the ice. Her eyes turned to me.. giving me a disgusted stare.
"I thought I would have gotten rid of you already.." She whispered to herself.
"What?! Did you say something?" I asked her for clarity.
"Oh.. it's nothing! Don't worry about it Grace! My bestie!" She smiled.
NOTHING MY ASS.. I CLEARLY HEARD YOU SAY.. I HAVEN'T BEEN ELIMINATED YET OR SOMETHING...
Does this has something about what happened last time?
FLASHBACKS
"Oh remember that time during the reunion... when you were going to your car.. Grace kind of like was almost kidnapped by people.. Good thing Greg was there." Sungah said to me.
"Wait? What?! Grace!? What almost kidnapped?!"(edited)
"While we were returning to the car... I saw a group of men, they were taking Grace when she was unconscious... I didn't know what their motivation was on taking her.. but I knew they meant business... so I had Sungah call the police." Greg narrated.
"And then Greg just swung by and kind of beat the shit out of them.. and Greg was like.. YOU TRY TO KIDNAP HER! I WILL KILL YOU!" Sungah imitated Greg's speech.
"Hey! Stop that.. that's embarrassing.. yes.. although I did ask them when I pinned them who was behind the kidnapping.. but the police kinda got to them first.. I was going to torture them to get the info out but apparently that was illegal.. so I didn't try it." Greg sighed
FLASHBACK ENDS
Could it be that... she's the one who was in charge of Grace's kidnapping! I mean I'm sure this woman is already insane.. and sick in the head.. she did try to drug me a lot.. she could have the tools to hire a few bad guys to do her bidding..
"Oh.. you've been staring awfully close to me.. is something wrong?" She asked me innocently.. [10:44 PM]I guess I'll poke a hole in that fake act of yours... I'll have to find out more anyway... how do you act when you're not with me...
"Hm... I've been feeling a lot insecure lately.. going outside and all..." I said to her pretending to me weak and helpless.
"Oh why is that Grace my bestie?!" She smiled
"It's just that after the reunion... I have been almost taken by a group of men with masks... although good thing my bodyguard was there.. although if my bodyguard wasn't there... I would have been taken.. that's why I'm quite worried about going outside now.. especially during night time.." I ranted to her...
"Oh. It's very dangerous for ladies like us to go out in the night. It's great that you have your bodyguard to protect you. Although." She puts her arms around my shoulder.
"Is there a man you've have your eye now for a while? You are a very gorgeous lady and I think a few men have their eyes on you."
"Oh.. no.. I have no man in my mind.. honestly I prefer to focus on my business first... I've been quite busy since my work as a C.E.O takes a lot of my time. Getting a husband would just take my time." I replied to her...
"Anyways.. who's the woman with you? She's your secretary yes? I do recognize her from somewhere but where is she from?" She looked at me awaiting for an answer.
"Oh.. you mean Ms. Tan? She's my secretary.. she's a grade higher than us when we were high school students.. as I remembered..."
"She's quite a person isn't she? I feel like we would really be good friends wouldn't you agree!? Can I ask you for her phone number.. so I can talk to her more." She hands me her phone.
"Oh.. it would be really rude.. if I just hand Ms. Tan's phone number... perhaps you can ask it off from her.. I can tell her to talk to you.. if you would like or I can give you her phone number.. and then she'll decide whether to text you or not." I responded.
"Oh please do.. you already have my number right. Please pitch in for me." She touched my hand, giving me a giggle.
As I turned around.. I see Grace coming back... Huh? Where's Sungah? She must have returned back to our table.
"I must be going now! See you." I waved goodbye to them.
I took a peek at the back of me as I saw Isabel smothering Grace... Now I kind of feel bad Grace taking my life... but I guess going to the charity is gonna be payment.. haha!
Although.. where did Sungah go? She should have been here...
As I looked around.. I saw her.. Speak of the devil... "Hey! Where did you go Sungah?" I asked her.
"Grace! It's terrible... I'm in danger.. can you help me with something?" Sungah said to me stumbling over her words as she nervously held my arm.
"Why?! What's wrong Sungah.. What happened?!" Could it be because of Isabel or something?
Although.. it's a bit odd.. since Sungah usually calls me... Louie... I guess she chose to call me Grace today.
"No time to explain! I need to outside of the building right now! There's a catastrophe! Please.. help me!" She tried to drag me out. "Wait! Shouldn't we ask for Greg's help?! He's like mega strong.. If you have a problem with a problem he can definitely take care of it." I suggested to her.
She remained persistent... "No. Don't tell anyone..so just hurry and co-" She stopped midway her sentence as Greg said "What are you guys doing?"
"Did you get your charm Sungah?" Greg asked her.
"Oh.. I didn't... I must have forgot it over there! Silly me! I'll go ahead and be right back!" She ran away... making a clumsy pose.
What on earth is wrong with Sungah... Did she like to take drugs or something? She's acting super bizarre today.. Extra bizarre than she usually does.
Without a few seconds of waiting.. Sungah came back.. with a big grin to her face. "Did yall miss me! I got my pendant from Grace."
"What did you need help with Sungah? You said that you needed help with something outside or something...so what was that about?" I asked her.
"Help? What do you mean? I was in the bathroom.. this is the first time I've seen you guys after I talked with Grace..."
Wait...
What?!
