"Stay away from me. Sylvie pointed a finger at Lana. She tried so hard to fight it, but the tears were finally

coming down.

today. I'll make sure you pay?

"You liar! What're you talking about? | didn't do anything" Lana yelled tearfully

Sylvie said nothing else as she turned around and left.

Yeah, to hell with work. She was done for today.

Lana felt embarrassed. She was furious. Although, Sylvie had taken her by surprise and a lot of people had seen

that, it wasn't a good thing she got beaten by that bitch in front of so many others. She hoped Rage would be

doing something about it

She could barely control her anger as she followed him into his office after he asked her to. She figured he was

trying to apologize and get her to calm down

What really happened?" He asked, as soon as they were in his office.

Lana her hands crossed below her chest, exploded.

burnt with the recollection of how Sylvie had humiliated her.

Kage, hunching over his desk asked. "She said something about you making her lose clients and all. What was

that about?" Lana scoffed in disbelief. Why was he questioning her like she was the culprit? "Well | didn't do such

a thing. Kage! There are all lies, obviously. It wouldn't be the first tshe'd be lying, would in

Rage looked away, his hands clenching into fists. Something about the way Sylvie cried didn't sit well with him.

Hold on Lana went closer. You're not trying to fault me, are you? Tellyou're not taking that bitch's side."

"She's not a betch" He snarled, thumping his fist on the desk.

Lana finched stopping herself from jumping back in fear. What the hell?

Rage had been agitated when she called her that the first time, but hearing it from her again. he realized it

for Clupter 36

He gathered his things and left the office, leaving Lana behind.

Stephanie wasn't hwhen Sylvie arrived. She cried smore, wishing there was someone she could talk to

She tried calling Westley, but his number was busy.

After a while, she managed to get sfriends to go drinking with. Its been pretty long since she visited a bar.

One of the things Sylvie's doctor had advised her to avoid while pregnant was alcohol. But the concluded a cup

or two wouldn't hurt. She's missed having it, and after that night, she wasn't going to take any more

Besides, she really needed it, considering what she had gone through for the day. Plus, her tolerance level

was way below one percent. Half a shot and she could already be drunk. She just needed something to distract

her from the pain from the embarrassment she had to endure that day.

She wore a short jean skirt and a big top - big enough to shield her bump. Then, she and two of her friends went

off to Haven Bar and Grill - their favorite.

There were a lot of people there already, drinking, dancing and making merry. Sylvie and her friends sat at a

counter and ordered sshots. And while Sylvie's friends took several shots, she kept herself to one-which she

still hadn't finished.

In no time, her friends were drunk and left her to join the dance floor

Sylvie took another tiny sip from her shot glass. Of course, she was tempted to have more, but she worried for

her babies However, when she thought more on the ordeal of the day, she felt so much pain that she felt the

strong urge to drink more The disgust on the men's f She downed the rest of the drink in her glass.

"One more," she waved at the bartender.

He smiled as he took the empty glass from her. "Of course, pretty

One more shot and she was high as fuck. Whatever the bartender had given to her was pretty strong.

She wasn't the best person on earth. She should be thinking of the babies. Hopefully, after tonight, she was

never going to get drunk, ever again.

"Sylvie, con! You're missing out on the fun!" Cindy returned to grab her hand.

Sylvie was already chuckling. She figured she could indeed, use sdance moves. Happily, she stood up and

blended into the crowd.

'How did | get here?" it was the one question Kage couldn't stop asking himself as he walked into Haven Bar and

Grill with three of his friends.

It wasn't his first tvisiting a club, but it was his first tbeing in that very club. Usually, he did classics. The

type where you'd hardly find so many people because the bouncers did a lot of screening. If you didn't look rich

enough, you wouldn't be let in. You'd hardly find people dancing on the floor due to the fewer numbers. Over

there, strippers did the entertainment.

But tonight, Kage's friends managed to convince him to go to Haven Bar and Grill. His friends were filthy rich

which was the only reason he considered it and convinced him it was better in such places. But stepping foot in

it already, he wanted to go

back out.

There were too many people. He didn't like being in the company of people who weren't worthy to be in his

company Imagine one of them bumping into him and telling him to watch it. On a normal day, a miscreant like

him wouldn't even the chance to be near his company "I don't like it here. Kage mumbled as he and his friends

took their seats at the VIP' corner. Even what they referred to as the VIP corner was still a joke A lot of people

could still have access to them.

VIP was at the top of the room, giving them across to everything below, where the dance floor also w

Relax, K. We just got here," Abel chuckled.

Drinks were served, and while Kage's friends seemed to be having a really good time, Kage was counting his

seconds out of there.

The air smelt dirty-to him. There were too many people, and if there was one thing he hated, it wes crowds. In a

matter of minutes, he'd be out of there.

Sgirls - almost naked - cover to their table. His friends didn't waste any tin grabbing their asses

and doing as they pleased, but there was none of them that attracted Rage.

His mind drifted to the reason he'd agreed to hang out with his friends in the first place. He had been restless

after the scene at the company, seeing Sylvie cry and in so much pain. It wasn't the first the was seeing her

cry, yet that had hit differently.

He had asked around and gotten answers in what happened at the meeting. Instead of her sketch showing up on

the projector. there had been porn images instead. He could imagine how embarrassing it must have been for

her, considering the fact that she was asked to unhealthy reason, they made him feel pity for her.

Her tears made more sense. And for an unh
