"And someone just had tipped us with a piece of evidence. Seemingly it has recorded that persons schemes. So here we are, going to play that now."
*Boom*
A pin drop silence shadowed over the hall. Lily stepped into the hall through a side door, she became a lot stable by Mantisha's constant questioning for her and with Sylvia holding her back. Who was she? She was a renowned Young Miss of a prominent aristocratic family, who had received numerous trainings since childhood and was trained to face any situations. She had lost her cool for a few minutes but after getting a little support, she had gained her composure back.
Lily looked back as she tried to find Mantisha once again but could not see her face at all.
She scanned through the hall as her eyes fixed on a pair eyes looking at her with a strange expression on her face. Clenching her fists, she moved her gaze from Evelyn and looked to the people setting up a projector.
Macy's smile froze. She felt like she had just fallen from the high sky to the hard ground. Her heart seemed to be stopped for a moment. Not any of the whispers entered through her ear, not even a single bit of sound made a ripple in her heart.
'How could this be! How could anybody record something! I had made sure that nobody was around me. And what exactly was the evidence? Who the hell gave that!' Macy started to sweat profoundly. She was not understanding what was happening. She entirely forgot about Nate, her possible goldfish; her wish to sign with StarBox Global; her upcoming issue of contract renewal with The Roy's Food and Hotel Chain, her only concern became not to be discovered and be at Adi Roy's bad side for ruining his party.
"Darn it." Macy muttered under her breath.
Nate's face seemed to ease a little as he looked at a corner of the main hall. He gave a light nod to a certain someone but did not make it too obvious.
However, he was completely oblivious that this negligible act of him was being observed by someone. That man's lips curved slightly as he pushed his gold rimmed glasses up a little.
The lights went off, and the projector was set. The hall went into dead silence, as the last tap of the laptop's key was sounded mightily.
Two blurry figures appeared in the screen. It was clear that the camera was a low quality one. One was facing the camera, with a waitress's uniform on while the other one was with a maje white gown. Her face was not shown but the back view of her figure screamed itself that she was one of the upper class people here.
Macy almost lost her balance, but Nate held her somehow.
"Are you okay, Miss Carter?" Nate asked in a low voice. For the first time, he looked at her with his deep eyes.
"Ah yes. I just lost my balance." Macy smiled awkwardly as she told him, "Actually I feel a little suffocated in the crowd here. I think that I'll be fine after I wash up a little. If you please excuse me."
"Alright." Nate replied simply. His gaze was fixed on her retreating figure. A slight mocking smirk appeared in his lips as he thought, 'Only if you can.'
And as he expected, she was stopped by the guards stood in front of the door of the main hall. She had no other ways but to back and watch the show she created by herself.
Meanwhile the recording was still playing. The voice of the waitress was sounded. Though not clear but fortunately it had captured the sound of their conversations well.
"No, I can't do this. I have a family to feed. I still need to pay for my mother's medical bills. What if I get caught Miss? In this city, I wouldn't be able to find a job ever again. I am sorry Miss. Please spare me."
"Two Million."
"Miss?"
"Didn't you just tell that you need to pay for your mother's treatment. I will give you two million to get the surgery done."
"This..." The waitress's firm attitude flustered. She looked a little confused.
"Think about it. I will give you one more million. You can just go to the countryside with your mother for a change and live there for a while. It would be better for her health too."
That waitress clenched her hand into fists as the sides of her perfectly ironed skirt became a little crumpled. The lady in front of her continued.
"After the things get settled here and the things calm down, come back to my assistant in secret. She will arrange a job for you."
Tha waitress left out a sigh, then said, "Okay. What do I have to do?"
That lady gave her a little pouch, containing some white powders in it, then said, "Add this in a drink, then hand that over to her." She paused for a second then continued with a disdainful voice, "Seduce a man in his fifties or more, invite him to the room for change upstairs. Then capture her when she would be on her way of the washroom. Tear her clothes off and send her to him."
People gasped in surprise. Though it was not new for them to ruin someone's future or life for their own gains, but everybody had done it so meticulously that nobody did get a wind of it. But this time, it was done by a sophisticated Young Miss of an aristocratic family, who was raised with extreme love and care; who was raised in a surrounding that was devoid of the darkness of this society. Then how could she be so vicious to arrange something inhumane like this.
"What are you saying Miss? Forgive my rudeness but I can't do this. How could I hust kidnap someone and send her to someone. I would be discovered right away. Her partner would start to look for her if she would not return after a short while."
"You don't need to worry for that. She appeared here without a partner. Who knows, if she was send here to be a 'gift' to someone today. And with that vulgar mouth of hers, she even dared to provoke one of the Young Masters of Blacks. Nobody had a good impression of her. Nobody would come to find her either. So just do as you are instructed."
"Alright." The waitress bowed to her and left.
After her departure, a cold laugh could be heard, "I wonder how the show would go if you were to be exposed naked in front of crowd."
