" Nicolas Newman, age—- twenty-nine, works in an International company in the finance department, salary not impressive. Lives with his parents, and a sister, who was brought up by his Grandmother and what is this? Bwahaha!" Derren clapped his hands as he laughed out loud and wheezed, " H..hahaha—— hates everything that's lawless, reeks of criminality and what —— faints at the sight of blood, Oh God this is fan—- fu*king—- tastic, I must say."
Vanessa glared at him, and Derren tried, noticing the keyword tried to keep his laughter controlled but then he couldn't, shoulders trembling he once again burst out laughing. " I mean my dear sister, what are you going to do now? You Zing'ed with a guy who hates criminals and you-- my dear, you are a not just a criminal" with his hands moving around a lot, Derren pointed at her. " You are a f*cking mafia lord, who shoots more people than this guy kills mosquitoes, and what was that little minor inconvenience that we just read, oh yeah —— he faints at the sight of blood but you ----my Nessie you even like eating your steak rare. How is this going to work, can you please explain it to me?"
She took a deep, calming breath. Though she hated to admit it, her brother was right, this was going to be a lot more troublesome than she thought. Nick didn't seem like the guy who would be shaken by their wealth and she was nothing like the woman, he was seeing. He seemed to like those foo-foo girls who didn't even have the strength to open a f*cking jar of pickles while she was a lot more how should she say it — a dominant, alpha female type of girl. She didn't even like wearing those knee lengths dresses and heels, and from all the photos that she has seen of his match, it looked like he was into those girly types of women. Something she clearly wasn't.
Derren stopped laughing and moved closer, his haw set. " I think it's about time you stop dreaming and come back to reality, V. This isn't going to work that guy, he and we are worlds apart. Hell, if you try to get closer to him maybe he might even call the police. Though the mayor of the city is in my pocket, I don't think that you will like staying a night at the prison before I can break you out."
" I know that, but I don't want to give up. I haven't even tried yet, how do you know that it won't work."
" On the fact that the guy was raised in a family that's filled with policemen and women? On the fact that he wouldn't even accept such a small prank like things as shoplifting? Or on the fact that their family is well—— normal? They don't belong with us, they belong to the innocent ring around a roses world and you know that you get closer to that guy, see how many peoples, groups and criminal organisations target that man."
She clenched her fists. " And here I thought that you wanted to send me to a normal family."
" I still want to but on my conditions, I want you to marry in a family that can protect itself and you as well, I don't want a sissy guy for my sister. Whom you need to protect, that's not the future I want for you."
Vanessa knew that he was right. And she hated that he was right but her heart didn't want to give up. " I can try you know… I can try to get as normal as I can to fit him."
Derren sighed, he hated that his sister was so stubborn. All he wanted was for her to marry in a family with no strings attached, one where she can live how she wanted and without her heart at stake. Since falling in love didn't quite work out for their mother, however, he also knew that no matter how much he tries to stop her, she won't listen to him. Maybe he should let her do this thing and let her see for herself that falling in love and staying in love were two different things. " Very well, if you want to try then try as you wish."
A genuine smile bloomed on Vanessa's face but then Derren turned to Charity and snapped his fingers. " Get her to learn all those girly things that women nowadays do, but first and foremost," he wickedly smiled and added, " Take her to get her eyebrows done and body waxed, since she is getting a makeover she might as well get one properly, and do that as soon as she gets well."
Charity looked at Derren who was smiling like a devil and then at Vanessa who was looking at him like a lunatic and shook her head. The young master was really quite an evil character.
Two months later.
" Oww, what the f*ck!"
" Do it slower!"
" Hey, are you trying to snap my skin off? What's the matter with you?"
" F*ck this and F*ck Derren and F*ck you!"
" Don't…. Don't even think about touching me there!"
" Why… Why do you have to do that place, it's not like I am jumping on the bed with him on the first date?"
" OWW, I am gonna f*ck that brother of mine up!"
" F*ck you Derren!"
Vanessa felt like she was being scratched by a group of rabid dogs, she couldn't even get close to understanding as to why women liked doing this kind of thing? Like what was wrong with being hairy? Like why go through this torture only for smooth skin?
Who invented this thing anyway? She was going to drown that guy! Before pushing him off a cliff!
Throughout the entire process, Vanessa acted like a spicy cat whose tail was stepped on, she cursed this and that and tried to run out of the waxing room like ten times. By the time they were finished not only Vanessa but even the girls who were responsible for waxing her were tired out, as Vanessa slipped out of the parlour, Charity gave a generous tip to the staff members for putting up with them before following Vanessa out.
Once they reached the exit, Charity looked at the red and flushed Vanessa and couldn't help herself. " Are you alright?"
Vanessa stared ahead as she waited for the driver to bring the car and gritted out. " Super, I feel so amazing that I want to file Derren's ass with sandpaper. You in for it?"
