It was already 10p. m., the cars in front of the “Frozen Bar” were getting more and more, the guests were rushing in, lighting up the bar. People could feel the passion flow through the doors and windows while the loud music was playing inside. Passengers would even turn and take a quick look.
Even before the guests reached the door, the waiter at the door would shout to welcome them, “Jessie, you are early today! A bunch of people have already been asking for you!”
The woman smiled, “Some people in this world still have good taste.”
The other two girls on the side nodded to her, a woman who was wearing exposing clothes was yelling at another pretty girl, “Are you new? Why don’t you greet when you see Jessie?”
The girl bit her lips, “Isn’t she just another customer? Why treat her extra?”
“Lower your voice! Jessie is like a VIP at our bar. Our business almost relies on her. All the rich men come to see her. Her name is Jessie Wynn. Don’t get yourself into trouble not knowing her again.” The almost naked woman told the girl.
The girl squeezed her eyes, “She looks very formal, I thought she was some business woman. Who knew she was also doing this kind of job.”
Jessie actually graduated from one of the top universities, but she has the sexy figure of a southern girl, her skin tone was just right, and she was also 1. 7m tall. She was a hot woman. She believed that a woman’s appeal was maintained through what she was wearing, that is why she spent most of her money on clothes. And she also believed that the first impression of a woman’s face would last, so she would use almost a quarter of her income to buy luxury cosmetics.
Meanwhile at the bar, Harold has collected about a dozen shot glasses in front of him, which he did not allow the bartender to clear off. He just drank one after another.
The colorful liquor, the loud music, the crazy dancers, Harold was using all of this to make himself forget about the pressure in his life, forget about the past, forget about the pain in his heart.
He just poured the liquor into his mouth, like he had nothing to look forward to, nothing to lose. All he could see was unlimited darkness and pain.
Right in that moment, Jessie was watching him. Since the moment he stepped foot into the bar, she has laid her eyes on him, she noticed the elegant suit on him. If she should get to seduce him, it would be a huge amount of money. She couldn’t let this chance go. He was all alone, drinking by himself, this would be the time to start her move.
Jessie walked towards him, using her ladylike curves. She looked at his face and saw the darkness in it, but at the same time it was so elegant. His facial lines so perfect, so handsome. His lashes so dense, in great contrast to his light face. His nose so tall, his nostrils moving slightly with his breath. His lips, so soft and yet so cold, holding its temptation for any girl. Just looking at him made her feel like she has lost her senses. Jessie slid on the bar stool next to Harold.
“Get me the same as this gentleman is having.” Jessie said with her soft voice.
“Okay, just a moment.”
After she ordered, she walked right next to Harold. “Mister, you look like you got something on your mind. I also went through some lows in my life today, why don’t we have a drink together?” Jessie said seductively.
“Get away from me!”
How could Harold not know what she was trying to do, he was just not in the mood to get on her hook. Asking her to leave was nice enough. But that only attracted Jessie even more.
“Oh come on, are you really in such a bad mood? Let me raise a glass on you, Mister Bad Mood.” She finished her drink in one gulp. Jessie thought he would at least look at her, but who knew, he didn’t even bother.
Harold smirked, took his glass and poured it onto Jessie’s hair. The cold liquor was running down along her neck into her clothes. “Okay then, let me give you a toast.”
“Oh my god, my dress!” Jessie yelled. She stared at Harold angrily, her voice sounded annoyed. “I just wanted to to be nice spend some time with you, why would you do this to me?”
Harold raised his head and looked at her amused, “Nice? Spend time with me? Who are you even?”
Jessie only got even more angry, she wanted to call security to beat up this man, but the bar owner quickly came in between and took Jessie to the side. “Are you nuts? Beat him up? Why did you pick a fight with him, there are so many other guys to choose from. Do you even know who that is?” The owner whispered to her.
Seeing the bar owner like this Jessie got a feeling that this guy must be some kind of important personality. “So who is he?”
“That’s Harold Quarrington! President of the Quarrington group!”
As soon as Jessie heard the name it ran down cold on her. She knew that she took a move on the wrong person and needed to apologize to him. The bar owner also went to Harold and apologized for her, since Jessie was important for the business of his bar. If they would kick her out, he would lose so much.
Harold didn’t even want to bother these two, turned around and kept drinking his alcohol. He just wanted to get wasted today, nothing else.
Fortunately they left quickly.
…
It was past 3 a. m., Harold didn’t even know how much he drank, all he knew was that he was feeling dizzy. When he tried to get up, he fell back onto the couch again. The bar owner saw him and dropped him home, he was afraid he might make a scene if something would happen.
The last thing that Harold remembered was how the house keepers helped him into his bed, and then knocked out.
The next morning, sunshine fell through the windows, filtered through the curtains of his bedroom into gray and yellow tones, and shine on Harold’s forehead.
When Harold turned to the other side, it felt like his head was going to explode. He shook his head, and massaged his temples with his long fingers. When he raised his head to look at the time, he realized it was already noon. Harold got up and wavered towards the door.
He just arrived downstairs when his house keepers came to him to tell him Torah escaped.
She escaped?
His hangover was still bother him, now there was another problem. When Harold went to the house where he locked up Torah, he immediately knew how she got out.
He gave order to check the neighborhood for her, to get her back if found, and also asked to see Torah’s parents.
