Chapter 5 - The Game of Intrigues and Rewards

CHAPTER FIVE

As she struggles through the crowd, she saw a man and a woman standing on her way.

The man keeps touching the woman ass no matter how many times the woman tried to pay off his hand. 'Harassment', Laura thought carefully. With the alcohol in her system, she takes the courage to walk up to them. Laura then punch the man's face. "Leave her alone! That was sexual harassment" she warns the man.

The woman then scream laud " What on Earth are you doing?, He wasn't harassing me!". The man then cover his face with his hands. "Have you lost your mind, you crazy bitch?, She's my girlfriend" . "What…?!"

Laura was confused, then turn to face the girl in any hint that can tell her that the girl was in trouble but then only did she realized that the girl was looking at her in total disbelief. "So he wasn't pestering you?"

Laura still ask. "No he wasn't, that was a little game between us" the woman confirm. "Come on, if you haven't touched her that way, I wouldn't have mistaken the situation!" Laura now put all the blame on the man. "I'm sure it's none of your business how I make out with my girlfriend.

It was you who interrupted us and make a scene! Now look at what you have done to me! I really need competition for my loss" The man said. "I'm really sorry about her action, she's a little stressed out.

Look take this and we will leave" Liam then gave his wrist diamond watch to the man and takes Laura outside with him. He drove Laura back to her appointment and exchange contact with her. "Well, this is my stop. I'll see you later Liam. It was nice to meet you" Laura said her good bye. "Uh, yeah.

It was nice meeting you too…. I will probably call to inform you about the plans" he said "Ok" He entered his car and drove away, leaving her all alone.

The rest of the night, Laura couldn't help but think about Liam's plan to take her revenge but finally, after a couple of hours she fell asleep.

The next morning, it took soon effort for Laura to open her eyes as she groaned and arduously sat up on the bed. "Ooh…" her whole body ached and she could see black dots floating her vision. " How long did I drink last night? I haven't had a hangover for a very long time, but this feelings could hardly be confused to anything else" she complained.

She had a splitting headache and a bitter taste in her throat, her limbs did not obey her as well.

Laura spend the rest of the morning making soup to cure here hangover then took her laptop to check some mail sent by Josephine. For sometime, she was tired and decided to have as much rest as she want. After all, it was weekend and she had earned herself a bit more Dreamland time.

A weak later. 'RIIIIIIIIING', 'RIIIIIIIIING' "I don't…. Want to. Get up. Yet" Laura shout. 'RIIIIIIIING', 'RIIIIIIIIING' Laura phone keeps ringing non stop. "ARGH! Stop ringing!" Laura threw a pillow at the unexpected phone call, Then she decided to answer the call.

"Yawn, Hello?!" she picked up not checking who the caller is. "Laura?! get up, don't you dare miss this opportunity to meet Mr. Gil today" Laura heard a familiar cold voice rang and immediately realized it was Liam. Oh, she totally forgot about the plan of meeting Mr. Gil.

I totally forgot, I will just prepare now" she said rubbing her eyes with the back of her Palm. "Don't make him wait!" Liam said then end the call. 'GEEZ! I have to do this by all means' Laura said inwardly as she reached towards the night stand and grabbed her wrist watch to check what time it was. It was already pass eight, meaning she was left only with an hour to prepare.

But she guess an hour was more than enough for her to get ready. "Well, new day, new plan and new beginning! Now, what should I wear for this meeting?" she said to herself. Looking at her closet, she pick a beautiful business dress , match with a black sandals. Which brings out her beautiful curvy body and her elegant look. She tied her red long hair in a loose ponytail. "Right! Looking great me, and just set to go for a business" she complimented herself.

She quickly made her way downstairs, left the house, enter her car and drove off. Gil's Mansion Liam entered a certain dark room, which looks like nobody has been staying there for years now. "Gilgamesh, can I see you?" Liam called out but got no respond. "I have the most amazing new for you! Well it's okay if you don't want to see me but you can just hear me out first" Liam said but still no one answered.

Gilgamesh has live like he did not exist anymore for many years now since the death of his family. Everything on Earth bored him, nothing seems to catch his interest and the only thing that matters to him was to go on a deep slumber. "Gil, I have found an interesting game for you to kill your boredom.

Why don't you hear me out, you must absolutely must come to like it." Liam insist. "Stop wasting you time Liam, you know what I want" A deep cold voice ran at the opposite end. "But, that's not what we all want Gil. Think of us at least once" Liam said loud. "I don't care Liam, nothing interest me" Gilgamesh said nonchalantly. "Permit me to say, but I wonder how your dark eyes will lit up if you find out about what I have to say" Liam insist. "Still boring" Gil said casually.

"Okay, let's do this. Once you play along in this and it seems boring to you, I will never bother you again! Deal?" Liam said. "Okay, what do you have in store?" Gil reply. Liam immediately start telling him about his plans. Thankfully, Gil was attentive. But Liam notice how difficult it was for Gil to remember some vital things. "Why the heck is it already so boring, Liam? And why do I have to go on a date?" Gil asked. "There will be fun in it, trust me. How about you we try out reward system?" Liam explain. "The what?" Gil was curious. "Yes, reward system.

You just need to do the work and has a reward of your choice" Liam said. " what possibly reward can I get from a little fragile human girl. I already have everything" Gil sigh. "Yeah, that where the fun begins" Liam said "Interesting" Gil said in the most salty tone, his gaze holding Liam down. As they two discuss, Liam notice that this time, Gil wasn't just attending. His eyes were roaming. "Do you have any reward mind?" Liam was curious. "Yes" came his simple respond. "Mind telling me" Liam asked. "I don't want to spoil the fun" Gil reply. Liam felt mission number one successful. He couldn't believe how fluently this information was flowing to Gil. He seems, determined.
