Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

Mona swung to the music as she tossed all her worries aside. She was not a good drinker so she just took a sip. Meanwhile, Ella was urging her to finish up so they can leave.

Mona didn't know how she was going to discard her friend. He knew Ella had been suspicious when she went over to meet one of the bar boys.

She looked at her friend who was also staring at her. In the end, she had no choice but to tell her everything. After all, Ella was a great friend. It wouldn't be nice to keep such a thing away from her. She needs her friend by her side.

She drew nearer and whispered to her friend what she was about to do. With eyes wide open, Ella had disagreed vehemently.

It took a lot of persuasion from Mona before she finally had to give up when she remained stubborn. Though she wasn't too pleased she had no choice but to agree. That was the only solution for now.

"Mona, must you do this?" Ella had asked.

"Yes, that's the only way to stop my father. I can't let him have his way this time around" Mona replied.

"What if he does something bad to you? Mona, why don't you come to stay over at my apartment instead? Just come live with me after tonight"

"You have an apartment? When was that? You never told me" Mona asked in surprise.

"Yes, I do. I never told you because my father just gave me the keys today because I would be starting work at his office on Monday. And since I didn't want to live in the family house, he bought that apartment for me. It was a gift for graduating"

"It's not right. Your parents won't allow it" Mona said.

"I already told them. There are no issues from their side. You know my parents don't have a problem with you"

"Ella, I will think about it"

"No. You have to give me a reply or else I won't allow you to do what you are planning! I know your father, he might do something bad to you afterwards" Ella insisted.

Mona was quiet for some time. Her friend was right. Her father would surely kill her if he finds out that he can no longer sell her out.

She finally agreed to Ella's request but she was worried about her father. What if he later finds Ella's place? She doesn't want to put her friend in danger.

"I know what you are afraid of but don't worry, your father would never have access to us because I would be giving him a restraining order once you move in" Ella assured her friend.

Mona reluctantly agreed but still thanked her friend. She was grateful.

"Alright, let me go prepare an aphrodisiac so you can get started. You will need it for courage" Ella winked at her.

After Ella left, Mona's eyes were roaming around the clubhouse to see if she could see any man that she likes. There were several men eyeing her but she had no liking for any of them.

After about thirty minutes, Ella walked toward her and gave her the spiked drink. She gulped it all at once.

Ella watched as her friend gulped down the whole drink at once and her jaw dropped. She swallowed her next words. Mona was supposed to take only half of the glass so she can stay sane but…just forget it, the deed had already been done.

"Ella, you can leave now. It's getting late. I can take care of myself", Mona reassured.

"Are you sure?", Ella asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, Ella. I will be fine", Mona reassured.

Ella stared at her friend for some time. Then she brought out a mask and gave it to Ella so she could cover her face with it. When she saw Mona had put it on, she reluctantly left the clubhouse.

It didn't take up to ten minutes after Ella left that the aphrodisiac started working. She staggered towards the bar boy and placed a tip on the table.

"I need an escort…for tonight", Mona said to him.

The bar boy looked at her in surprise. This woman was surely bold. Shouldn't it be the other way round? But he could hardly make out her face due to the mask.

"Are you sure, ma'am?", The bar boy asked.

"Are you going to give it to me or not?", Mona asked. She was already getting hot. She was about to unbutton her shirt when she heard a voice behind her.

"I have an escort for you, Miss"

Mona looked at the man in front of her with a raised brow. Her cheeks were burning hot and her lips were looking more alluring.

"Are you the one?", Mona asked the man.

"No, not me. He is already waiting for you in the room", the man said.

"Really? So fast? You must be the manager, right? Good job", Mona praised as she tried to stand up.

But it seems she was already getting riled up, she began to stagger towards the direction the man had pointed.

But she was just too drunk already and a little heated up. Her head was getting muddled up.

She followed the man to the room and the next thing she heard was the clicking of the room door. As her head was becoming hazy, she didn't think much of it.

She walked slowly towards the man who was lying on the bed with his face looking at her. She gasped at the man's well defined body which was already bare.

Hmmm, she thinks this escort wasn't bad. He was already prepared.

As Lester walked into the clubhouse with Gerald trailing behind him, the ladies were all drooling at the icy man who didn't even spare a glance at them. He was looking rather pissed off.

"This would be the last time you bring me to this kind of place or else…"

"Hey! It wasn't my fault. Eric insisted on meeting here. I never choose this place" Gerald defended himself.

Lester threw him a murderous look as they got into their private room. Eric was already there surrounded by four sexy ladies who were all skimpily dressed.

Lester sat down on the couch without a care for anyone. Eric was smiling at him as he beckoned to the girls to serve them drinks.

"Mr Lester, it's nice meeting you. Do you mind any of these beauties?" Eric asked as he pointed at the girls.

Lester wanted to retort but he met Gerald's pleading eyes. Please, don't spoil this deal!

"Not interested in toys. Never had" Lester responded icily.

Eric was taken aback at his words but he smiled at Lester's frankness. He knew he had chosen the perfect man for the contract. He wasn't interested in women also but he was just testing to see if the rumors about Lester were true.

Eric snapped his hands and the girls all started to leave the room except for two waitresses who were stationed to pour their drinks. He then turned to Lester.

"I think we have a lot in common. Surprisingly, I am also not interested in toys. Can we discuss business over drinks?"

"If you don't have interest in them, why did you have them?" Lester asked.

"Just wanted to test the waters" Eric replied with a grin.

Lester knew what he was talking about. However, he wasn't too pleased with the way Eric handled the business. He wanted to back off but then he remembered Gerald's warning.

"I really don't have any objections on my side. We can sign the contract immediately if you are interested too"

"Deal" Lester responded.

A waiter went to the bar in the private room and poured two glasses of wine. He gave one to Lester and the other to Eric. Then they quietly left the room.

Gerald, who acted as Lester's secretary, brought out their contract while Eric's secretary also brought his own. They signed it and to seal the deal, they both clicked their glasses.

Eric downed his glass of wine but had to leave as he received an urgent call. Gerald was overjoyed at the turn of events.

Finally, they had struck the deal.

Lester was still drinking his wine slowly but suddenly he felt hot and strange. Something wasn't right.

Was his drink spiked?
