=============
Vince's mouth forgot to close because he heard his father mention the whereabouts of his mother, who was none other than Ruby.
Kevin saw the change in the color of his best friend's face and he touched Vince's shoulder. The Hong man came to his senses and quickly answered the father who was already busy calling his name on the other side because of his son's silence.
"O-Ohh ... Papa with Mum? Okay, okay ..." Vince struggled to sound as normal as possible. However, his heart was beating fast.
"Vin, Papa hopes you will meet us. If you are currently traveling, come back soon. Papa is waiting." His father's voice on the phone was like an echo in Vince's empty heart.
"P-Papa want to see me? Oh, umm ... well, okay, I understand." Before long, communication ended. Then, Vince turned to his best friend. "Kev, turn around. We're going back to London."
Kevin, who had heard the conversation between the father and son duo, nodded. "Okay. Leave it to me."
So, that night, Kevin's yacht was back at the London docks. And surprisingly ... Benetton Hong and Kevin's father were already waiting there.
It was as if the two bad boys were caught off guard going out to have fun with women. Kevin couldn't help but grin awkwardly when his father smiled meaningfully at him.
Meanwhile, Benetton Hong nodded as if he didn't mind his son bringing a beautiful woman down from that yacht. "How are you, son?" asked Benetton to Vince. "Dad misses you so much." He hugged his son who was standing awkwardly.
"Me … me too, Dad. I mi—" Vince was about to finish his sentence when Mr. Hong's rear car door opened and the figure in red came out of it. Vince's tongue suddenly turned to stone.
Ruby.
That woman stepped gracefully over to Vince. "Hello, Vin. I hope my arrival and your papa don't disturb your fun." Ruby glanced at Neva who was standing awkwardly.
"He-hello, Mother. How are you?" Vince doesn't seem to have prepared his heart if he had to meet Ruby so quickly. However, he must quickly control himself and not act like a disgraceful teenage boy when he meets the lover of his soul. Vince immediately hugged Ruby like he was hugging his own mother.
"Don't you want to introduce ... your beautiful lover, Vin?" Ruby asked, looking at Neva.
Nevada smiled groggily at Ruby. "A-Ah, hello madam. I ... I'm Nevada. You can call me Neva." The girl hastily introduced herself and held out her hand to Ruby.
Ruby accepted Nevada's hand and they shook hands with each other. "Ben, what do you think of your future daughter-in-law?"
Benetton Hong studied Nevada and chuckled. "I don't mind, as long as it's a woman my son likes, then I won't mind at all, ha ha ha ..." Old Master Hong laughed lightly as he patted Nevada's arm.
Vince felt like he wanted to scream that Nevada wasn't the girl he liked! Absolutely not! He only used Nevada to vent his anger.
But ... suddenly Vince Hong caught Ruby's eye flash that had the nuance of ... jealousy? Huh? Is that woman really jealous? In Nevada?
Instantly, Vince Hong smiled a little. "Ah, so Mom and Dad like Nevada?"
Old Master Hong nodded. "Of course, we like her if you like her too, son. Besides ... Papa can see you two are so good together."
Vince chuckled. He reached for Nevada's waist so he could attach it to himself. "So … we match together? Wow, that's great! Look, she's young and beautiful and fresh. Isn't that right?" said Vince, gazing affectionately at Nevada.
Ruby smiled flatly at him.
That night, Benetton took his little family to a business relations party. Nevada was also invited to participate. Mr. Hong's luxury car stopped briefly at a well-known boutique in London so that Nevada could find an appropriate dress.
After that, the two women went into the salon to make up as beautiful as possible.
Meanwhile, Benetton and Vince Hong chose to prepare themselves in Mr. Hong's private residence in the Belgravia district which is famous for its super-expensive properties and the most expensive district in the world.
After they finished bathing and dressed in suits, they also picked up Ruby and Nevada at the salon, then together to Benetton Hong's business relations party.
Throughout the party, Vince continued to stick intimately to Nevada. They chat intimately, dance passionately, and Vince continues to touch Nevada in front of Ruby.
Ruby looked at Nevada secretly. She didn't understand why the young girl insisted on choosing a red dress? Even the shoes, she asked for red ones too. Ruby's brow furrowed uncomfortably. Did the girl want to compete with her in a red dress?
Now, Vince and Nevada are dancing intimately near the band's stage along with several other couples. Ruby watched that too while sitting, while her husband was still busy with his business relations.
Ruby's eyes continued to follow Vince and Nevada's movements. Vince's hands were so actively touching Nevada's body. He still remembers what Vince Hong said earlier. Beautiful, young, and fresh Nevada. Damn it! Was Vince making fun of her?
Did in Vince Hong's eyes, Ruby looks old and withered?
Ruby's hands tightly squeezed the dinner towel on the table. Luckily it wasn't the glass that she crushed or would shatter.
"Ben, I think I'm really tired and want to go home first." Ruby whispered to her husband sitting next to her.
Benetton Hong turned to his wife and said, "I'll call the driver to take you home. Just wait a minute."
Ruby nodded. They had come to the party without a driver. Vince Hong is driving the car. Now, when she wanted to go home early, Benetton would have to call his private chauffeur to come and take Mrs. Hong.
Vince Hong and Nevada came to Benetton's table. "What's wrong, Pa? Why does your face look confuse?"
"Your mother wants to go home first. Papa still has to talk to Papa's colleagues tonight. They don't have time tomorrow, so Papa had to call a driver to take your mother back to Belgravia." Benetton Hong looks sorry for having to let Ruby go home first.
Nevada's eyes widened for a moment when she heard the Belgravia district being called. With that, she was more confident in the wealth of the Vince Hong family.
Benetton Hong had no other choice as indeed he needed to discuss some business with some colleagues at this party which it would not be easy to meet after tonight.
Vince Hong nodded. "Ohh, so you want to go home first. Do you need me to take you home, Mom?" offered Vince.
Ruby shook her head. "No need. I'll just be with the driver later."
"Oh, okay. Then I'll go take Neva home first. And maybe I'll go straight back to the hotel." Vince Hong took Nevada's waist to say goodbye to his parents.
Vince Hong quickly took Nevada out of the party and called a taxi to take Nevada apartement. Meanwhile, Ruby still had to wait for the driver to arrive.
"Vin seems to be in love with the girl, you agree, sweetie?" Benetton Hong whispered briefly to his wife.
"Huh, I'm not sure Vin will be home tonight. Surely he didn't just take the girl home." Ruby sounded dismissive of Vince.
Benetton Hong laughed. "Ha ha ha, let him be, he is still young and full of spirit."
Half an hour later, Ruby arrived at Benetton Hong's luxury residence in Belgravia. She went into the bathroom to rinse off and came out just with her bathrobe.
Tekk!
The voice from the living room made Ruby squint. She opened her room and walked into the still dark living room. "Ben? Are you home?"
Tap!
An arm wrapped around Ruby's waist. "Did you expect Benetton Hong more than me, Ru?"
