Chapter 43 - Chapter 43

The buzzing sound of Juicy's phone awakened her from her deep sleep.

She groaned in pain as she reached out for her phone. Without looking at the caller's ID, she picked up the call.

"Juicy Brown! Where the fucking hell are you? Aren't you aware that we have a meeting with the Royal Crown company!" Her father; Sam, thundered over the phone.

"Dad! I am sorry, I would meet you at the company in thirty minutes time," Juicy said as she hastily got out of bed.

"You have a whole lot of explaining to do when you arrive. I think it is high time I looked into your matter of staying late in the club," Sam added and Juicy froze.

How did her father find out she goes to a club?

"Don't worry dad, I would be there quickly," she reassured him but before she could finish speaking the line went dead.

Juicy sighed in frustration as she was trying to get everything in order.

How the hell could she have forgotten about the meeting?

"Where the fuck are you?!" She yelled, looking for her clothes.

Suddenly, a knock was heard at the door and she opened the door.

"Good morning ma'am, I was sent to give you your clothes," a maid offered and Juicy slowly collected the clothes.

"Thank you," she muttered and the maid only smiled.

"You don't have to thank me but sir Xander, he was the one who asked me to give this to you," the maid added and Juicy only flashed her a smile.

Shutting the door behind her, she checked the clothes out and was stunned to see office wear set with everything she needed.

She beamed a smile in happiness as she gazed at the outfit. She would have to thank Xander later for this gesture.

She hurriedly went to the bathroom and took a quick shower, though she felt sore, she still had to ignore it.

She put on the clothes and it sized her perfectly.

'How on earth did he know my exact size?' Juicy asked inwardly, combing her hair.

She looked attractive as always in her office clothes and she looked like a businesswoman. Her face had a small smile as she took her car keys which were on the table.

She wished to talk to Xander or at least meet him but time wasn't by her side and she had to get going or else her father would skin her alive.

Surprisingly, she did not see Xander until she got to the garage. She looked around if she could see a trace of him but he was nowhere.

Sighing, she unlocked her car to get in when her eyes connected with a pair of grey eyes.

She held his gaze for a while and saw when a small smile appeared on his face.

Xander was at the balcony in front of the house, he had a glass of red wine in his hand as he leaned on the rails.

He watched Juicy as she elegantly walked to her car, and how her eyes seemed to have been searching for something or perhaps someone which was definitely him.

He couldn't help but chuckle when he saw her defeated expression and just when she had given up, her eyes landed on him.

He must say that she was really bold when she held his gaze.

This was the kind of women he liked, independent, bold and fearless though he still hated the fact that she clubs.

She looked beautiful as well as attractive in the formal wear she had on, and it made her look like an independent businesswoman.

He saw her flash him a smile and entered her car and drove out.

He heaved deeply while watching her car till it was out of sight.

A notification beeped on his phone and after reading it. He knew that it was high time he left for work.

Juicy drove as fast as she could and got to her father's company quickly but then the damage had been done.

The meeting had already commenced without her.

"Ma'am, you are late," Susan whispered to her and Juicy nodded her head in agreement.

"I know, can I go in?" Juicy asked.

"I don't know but your father was really furious about your absence. As a matter of fact he kept on yelling how you spend your weekends in clubs and sleeping with men," Susan added and Juicy's eyes almost fell off its socket.

"You mean my dad said all that in front of everyone?" Juicy asked.

"Yes, even Infront of the investors," Susan added.

"My father has killed me, he has ruined me!" Juicy whispered yelled.

"How could he say such a thing about me?" Juicy yelled and she felt so angry.

"You have to calm down, remember that your father is mad at you," Susan reminded.

"And besides, how could you forget such an important meeting?" Susan asked and what she earned was a glare from Juicy.

"You know what, I am out of here. Since he decided to embarrass me in front of everyone, I don't want to have anything to do with this meeting," Juicy said and even before Susan could stop her, she left.

She went home angrily. She was mad at what her father did? Did he really have to go to such length?

"Juicy, what…" Karen trailed off when she saw the murderous look on Juicy's face.

"Mom, I think you need to talk to dad. I need my peace in this house. Why would he go about telling my employees that I spend my weekends in clubs and sleeping with men?" Juicy yelled and stormed into her room.

To hell with the meeting!

She then remembered her friend and decided to call her.

Her line wasn't connecting and she began to wonder what was happening to her?

Fear gripped her! Her friend was in deep shit just because of her!
