Inside the private room, some guys surrounded Alec, trying to find out who the boy he had brought today.
"How have you been, Alec? After witnessing the CEO of Ren Corporation's behaviour today, I was worried about you! It appears that working for him is quite a stressful experience. Isn't it?"
" What are you talking about? Being a subsidiary of that company is a privilege, you know!"
Alec's thoughts were focused on the strange expression he had seen on Hirvan's face before departing. As a result, he was not paying attention to them until he heard one of them speak.
" What stress? Did you not see he was with his little boyfriend? Oh boy! That small waist of his was something! Alec, I didn't page you as being this wild."
He laughed and brazenly patted Alec's shoulder with that.
Others went silent. The financial and political situation of all of them was lower than that of Alec's family. From their childhood onwards, they were constantly reprimanded for not being as good or talented as Alec. Alec was a source of deep hatred for them, and they were always willing to ridicule or insult him at any chance they had. However, they were not crazy enough to do it in front of the said person.
Alec took a sip from his glass of wine with a calm demeanour. He initially thought it was okay to let them assume Hirvan was his boyfriend, but the comment he heard made him furious. He and Hirvan were approximately 10 years apart in age. So when his godmother gave birth to the wrinkled boy, he was there and had seen his growth completely. What led him to tolerate others insulting his little brother?
The difficult aspect was the concealment of Hirvan's identity. From the outside, he seemed like a country boy, but given his family circumstances, it was not wise to be prey to these horny beasts. He knew bringing Hirvan here would give him a headache.
" If you want to keep your precious job, Shut up!" Alec said while glaring at the young man.
" Why? Did I hit a nerve?"
Kyle retorted to him. He had never heard about anything that wasn't related to this guy in all his life. He wanted to subdue and break him, make him cry under him. For a while now, he had been being tortured by this dangerous thought. He thought he was crazy. In the right mind, who would choose a relationship with a big, muscular man instead of a girl who is soft and cute?
" I am leaving." Alec stood up abruptly and walked briskly towards the exit.
The response he got from his provocation was just that! Simply disregarding him! Kyle was seething with anger when a petite girl held his hand.
" Oppa, you promised to introduce me to that famous DJ! Why are you arguing with that man?"
Despite his cold reaction towards her, Kyle complied with her request and escorted her away.
Alec was searching for Hirvan in the hallway while pondering the reason why he still tolerated this group of hypocrites. His father was right. His attempt to hide his true nature from others would eventually result in an explosion. The only one who knew his true temperament was the man he respected the most. Remembering that, his chest was tightened by the sadness he felt.
He felt a sudden grab on his shoulder from behind. Alec looked behind him irritated by it, but all of his complaints were stuck in his throat when he saw the man's face.
" What were you thinking? I called you several times."
A tall young boy with a gentle temperament asked him.
Alec gulped before speaking.
" Nothing important. Due to my mother's request, I took my younger brother to the club and now He has run off to somewhere."
"It's good to have the chance to be a big brother once in a while. Do you need help?"
Ren YuZe made a kind offer to help him. But in Alec's eyes, it was like a death sentence. If the Demon king knew that he used his little brother as his manpower to find an insignificant boy, he would be finished.
"Don't worry, I'll be okay. There are plenty of idle people in the room willing to help me. You should go to Brother Mengsheng."
Alec waved his hand in refusal.
" Okay. When you are done, come to our room. I have to see that troublesome boy you are complaining about."
Alec received a sudden smile from Ren YuZe as he patted his shoulder. His smile was so bright and warm, that Alec lost his mind as if he saw a dazzling sun come down from the sky.
" Sure."
Alec emerged from his daze after a while.
' Ah, he is really a calamity! Just a small smile of him and I was bewitched and accepted to go!'
He held his forehead with a sense of dismay.
His biggest mistake was coming today with Hirvan!
'Let me find that boy, if I don't shed half of his weight from his body, I won't be a man!'
Alec's fury escalated with each passing moment, as he couldn't detect any sign of Hirvan in the club.
He decided to go to the manager's office as his last resort. It was fortunate for him that he had connections with this club in the past.
"Minch, would it be possible for you to help me locate a friend of my family? I'm worried about him as he just turned eighteen years old."
A man with blond hair and thick glasses glanced at him and spoke with a chilling tone.
"Show me his picture or the specific time and place where you last saw him."
Alec sighed in relief and explained the situation.
" He left our private room 30 minutes ago. I am in a rush not only because of his unfamiliarity with clubs but also because Ren YuZe wants to take him to their room. You understand what that implies."
Alec made another attempt to contact Hirvan while relaxing his body and leaning on the wall. He was certain that this person could find even a needle in a haystack from CCTV footage of the club.
" Found it."
Alec jolted and gripped the desk. " Where?"
" on the rooftop of the west wing with the grim reaper."
" What?!"
Alec felt confused.
" What did you say?"
" You better get going if you want to see him in one piece. That boy got physical with him."
Mitch's robotic and cold voice shattered Alec's hope to pieces thinking his hearing was wrong.
" Ah, I am fucked! He hates strangers touching him."
