Chapter 4
Leigh-Ann stood with the other girls nervously as she kept looking around. When Catherine had told her that it was a well-known company, she didn’t expect it to be this big and filled with people of high class.
The men wore expensive suits while the ladies wore beautiful dresses with expensive pieces of jewelry. They had their hair styled beautifully and their faces, heavily made up. That was the power of money, Leigh-Ann thought.
While the guys were provided with black suits, white shirts, and black shoes, the girls were given black dresses, white pantyhose, white hand wears, and silver shoes to match. Every other person’s dress fitted well, except for Leigh-Ann who kept struggling with her dress.
The dress was tight and it exposed her cleavages. It fitted her slim waist and flat tummy perfectly so that she could hardly breathe. Adding to that, the dress stopped some inches above her knees while her big ass kicked behind her. She couldn’t just wait for the whole event to be over.
“Listen up everybody. This is no ordinary place where you serve around, this is different and you have to be very careful. Your duties are to serve the guests and put on a smile at all times. You’re not permitted to speak to any of them no matter what and you’re to do as they ask. Is that understood?”
“Yes, Ma’am” They chorused and the lady nodded and looked around.
“Alright, move along everybody, the party is almost getting started”
Leigh-Ann took in a deep breath as they went on to serve the guests. She was extremely nervous, especially when all eyes kept dancing around her as she walked past. Her ash hair was tied into a bun and a little makeup was applied to her face. Maybe that was the reason they were staring hard, she thought.
After serving close to an hour, she returned to the buffet stand along with others who seemed extremely excited about what they were doing. Most of them even made friends but Leigh-Ann stood all by herself. She wasn’t really good at making friends.
“Hey, ash head, you’re needed at that table,” One of the guys said as he came to join them.
Her heart skipped as she stood like she didn’t hear him. She was needed? Why? Why her, why not someone else? When she noticed how everyone kept staring at her, she walked off slowly. She got over to the table which was occupied by three men and smiled as instructed.
“Hey, beautiful!” One of the men said and grinned. Leigh-Ann was tempted to roll her eyes and not smile any more but she held herself. She was only doing this for the money. She reminded herself.
“I think my coin fell over there. Can you pick it for me?”
“Yes Sir” She responded and bent over to search for the coin. When she couldn’t find it, she looked up and caught them peering at her cleavages. When they noticed they had been caught, they looked away.
“Have you found it? Check again, it’s important to me” The guy said again and she took a deep breath before turning back to look for the coin. When she was convinced that there was no coin, she stood up and caught them again.
“How am I sure that you even have a coin?” She asked, folding her arms. She knew they were messing around with her but she tried to keep cool.
“What are you saying? Do you know that I’m a billionaire, huh?”
“Very well then, Mr. Billionaire, you can always replace the coin, can’t you?” Leigh-Ann asked and turned to leave but the man stood up.
“Who the hell do you think you’re talking to huh?” He asked and held her back but she pulled her hand off his grip.
“Don’t you dare touch me. If the coin is so important to you then I guess you should find it yourself”
As she turned to walk off, she bumped into a waitress who was holding a tray filled with glasses of wine. The tray slipped over and the whole content poured on two of the female guests.
“How dare you!!!” The two ladies yelled at once and that got everyone’s attention. Leigh-Ann felt her heart beating heavily as she turned to look at the mess she caused.
“I’m sorry… It’s all her fault”
“You little… ” One of the ladies shirked and slapped her hard on the cheeks. Leigh-Ann sauntered backward only to slip and fall on the ground.
Oh goodness, what has she done? She just created a scene. The lady who hired her rushed over and glared hard at her. How dare she create a scene in front of everyone? This was going to ruin her career as well.
“I’m so sorry, please. I apologize for all the mess that has been caused”
” Sorry?” The second lady snapped, her face red in anger “Is that going to fix my dress huh? Do you know how much I spent to get it done? I haven’t even had the chance to appear in front of the boss”
“Just… Get her out of here. I don’t want to see her face anymore” The first lady said and stalked off.
“Get her fired” The second lady added and walked off too.
Leigh-Ann managed to her feet and lowered her head in apology. How could she lose this job huh? They were paying so much and she needed the money so badly.
“Please I’m…”
“You’re fired!” The manager announced and Leigh-Ann looked up at once. Fired??? “Leave, else I’ll call the guards to throw you out”
She stood, not able to believe what had just happened. Did she just get fired just like that? She couldn’t even plead with the manager cause she had stormed off already, leaving her to her fate.
“Here’s a cheque of 200 thousand dollars” Leigh-Ann heard behind her. She didn’t turn to look and slowly, the man went to stand in front of her. It was the same man who asked her to find his missing coin “But you’ll only have it if you let me fix it there”
Leigh-Ann stared at him and furrowed her brows, trying to understand what he was talking about. Where did he want to fix the check? She looked at his lustful eyes which stared down at her cleavages as he kept licking his lips.
“What?!?”
“Oh, come on. I know you need the money so it’s simple. I’ll have to dip it into your breast.” He said and smirked while Leigh-Ann stared unbelievably at him. Was he insane? She turned to leave but he grabbed her back and wanted to forcefully touch her cleavages.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
The drama attracted everyone’s attention including the boss who walked over dauntlessly. The ladies tried to get his attention while some fainted by just taking a glimpse at him. Everyone made way for him and finally, he arrived at the scene only to meet one of his executives trying so hard to touch a girl’s chest.
“Mr. Smith!”
On hearing his name, he paused and turned abruptly only to meet everyone’s eyes on him, including his boss. His mouth dropped and he bowed, not knowing how else to hide his face.
“I’m… I’m sorry, Sir” He said apologetically and kept bowing with his head almost touching the ground.
Kyler remained silent and that was one thing everyone feared more than anything. He was well known for his coldness and how deadly it was to cross his part. Everyone feared him including the authorities who wouldn’t dare meddle with him.
Quietly, he walked over to Leigh-Ann who had been staring at him all along. He was dangerously handsome with the perfect pair of dark eyes which made her heart skip as he looked at her. Adrenaline rushed, so much that it silenced her thoughts and all she could think of was him walking over to her. Who is he and how could one be this handsome with all manly features?
Kyler took off his jacket and covered her body, Ignoring the stares from her beautiful silver eyes. Leigh-Ann clutched the jacket, her eyes not leaving him for a second. She expected him to say something to her but he turned and walked off. Who was he?
“You’re fired. I’ll give you thirty seconds to exit the building”
Leigh-Ann thought he was talking to her until she saw the man who had tried touching her, running out of the building. What just happened?
