Barry sympathized with her, but he was unable to accept her. Not just any man, but Gerald Laverock is the man he was referring to earlier.
Ali is a novice, and judging by the innocent expression on her face, he assumes that she is unaware of the risks. Inexperienced women are not Gerald's thing. Worst of all, the man was rough with his women, and if he were to handle this one, he doubted her walking step would remain as elegant.
"Are you a virgin?" he asked.
Ali turned red at the question, but she gave a nod.
Barry shook his head, ready to send her away, when his phone rang and he realized it was his assistant.
"Sir Gerald's face does not look good; he is the only one without service, and I am afraid he will not accept any other woman," the assistant said nervously.
Barry cursed and looked at Ali again before saying, "Tell Madam Joan I am bringing a new girl."
After hanging up, he asked Ali to follow him. He led her to the top floor, where the big shots were located. Ali was astounded by the club's opulence and sophistication when she first stepped inside.
Meanwhile, at the Laverock mansion, Harriet Laverock, the old lady of the house, played with her teacup while keeping her gaze fixed on the door. Her family could tell she was waiting for someone or something by the impatient look on her face.
A short while later, the head guard of the family entered and gave her a salute. "Did you find her?" the elderly woman asked, glancing at the man.
A smile appeared on the woman's face as the man nodded. She pushed her family away, saying, "Quick all of you out, now. Tell me about her."
Last week, Harriet had a minor mishap at the market when she went for a walk and nobody was around to help her. Suddenly, a girl showed up out of nowhere and saved her. Before assistance arrived, the girl carried the woman on her back while no one else was in the area.
When Harriet awoke later, she searched for the girl but no one appeared to be aware of her existence. The girl was her savior and she couldn't forget what she did. To find her, she dispatched her chief guard to look everywhere.
"She goes by Alice Wayne. Her mother passed away three years ago, and her father, Lucas Wayne, took a second wife. She is going around asking for help paying for surgery because her brother has been diagnosed with a brain tumor and is in the hospital," the guard revealed about Ali.
"Why does she have to foot the bill? What happened to her father?" With a taut frown on her brows, Harriet questioned.
"He does not care for his first wife's children after he married his second wife, and Ali moved out of his house today because he is pressuring her to wed a man who is the same age as him,"
BAMM
"How could he put my savior through that?" Harriet growled, glaring at the security officer.
He was not Lucas, and the guard tensed, complaining inaudibly. After calming her nerves, Harriet issued the directive, saying, "Let Cecilia pay for his medical bills right away. We will visit her tomorrow."
The guard turned and walked away, but Harriet's rage over Lucas's actions persisted.
Had Ali known that the unidentified woman she rescued would provide assistance, she would not have decided to come and sell her body for cash. It is been said that a patient dog eats the biggest bone and that patience is a virtue.
This is something Ali will later come to realize in the morning. At the moment, though, she is gazing at the woman she never realized she could be in the mirror and appreciating herself. Madam Joan applied her makeup with great care, and as she finished, the older woman could not stop raving about the transformation of Ali's face.
Even when Barry arrived to pick her up, he was fixated on her. Her face was breathtaking, and she looked hot and gorgeous in the dress Madam Joan picked out for her.
If it had not been Gerald that he was dealing with, he would have kept her to himself. He could already picture Gerald's reaction when he sees her.
"Keep in mind to act natural and try to entice him just a little bit—do not go overboard. If you make a mistake, that brute might not spare you because you are not Lilly. I will send you the five million dollars tomorrow morning if you can win him over tonight."
Taking Barry's advice to heart, Ali braced herself for what was ahead. "Anything for Joe," she chanted in her head.
Barry led her through the door and into the private space where the celebration was taking place. It smelled strongly of alcohol, and Ali resisted the urge to poke.
She observed men sitting with their overnight companions and women dancing on the stage, dressed almost entirely in black. But contrary to her thoughts, only a few were fooling around in the room, the rest just sat down drinking and conversing.
All eyes were on her as soon as she entered, and she heard some boys in the room whistling. Barry led her to a man, and she fixed her gaze on him.
He sat in his seat, his gaze fixed on Ali's body, making her conscious and scared.
His aura was no joke. He exerted invisible pressure on people just by sitting there. Had Ali not been adamant about doing this, she would have fled.
Gerald felt a sudden reaction in his body as he observed the woman in front of him. "What are you doing standing there? Are you planning to dance or something?" he asked with a frown. He asked.
Barry motioned for Ali to take a seat next to him. After she did, Gerald took her hand and smelled her hair. His frown deepened as he fixed his gaze on her face.
He pointed out, glaring at the two with deadly eyes, "She is not Lilly and she looks inexperienced."
Ali held her breathe under the man's hostile glare. She began to fidget and had almost stood up to flee if Barry had not interfered and said, "Lilly ran off to god knows where and I thought you could use a change of service. This one is fresh and new." "You should know I have preferences Barry, don't you like your head anymore,'' Gerald threatened the man but his eyes was fixed on the scared kitten that looked like she wanted to bolt from the room. His body kept reacting and by the time he realized it, his member was already turning hard. He cursed, "what is wrong with you?" He asked, closing his eyes. Barry felt sweat trickle down his spine at the tone of his voice. But Gerald wasn't talking to him but was asking himself that. Ali cautiously moved away, wanting to escape however Gerald caught her hand and dragged her back causing her to end up in his arms, "where do you think you are going?" He asked his voice straining. Ali grimaced and tried to breathe out the words "You do
Although the pain from between her legs made it unable for her to think, Ali still heard the man's question. She looked at him helplessly not knowing how to respond. The man already knows that she is a virgin but he still asked her that. Her silence angered Gerald more and he asked again, enunciating each word, "I..asked..are..you ..a.. virgin?" "Yes," Ali whimpered, stifling her cry. "Damn," Gerald cursed. His body trembled slightly causing his member to push into Ali. He felt Ali squeeze him inside her and cursed again. Ali was silently praying that he will pull out and send her out but he did not, instead he looked into her eyes with a fire that threatened to burn her flesh and soul. Like a crazed man Gerald thrust into Ali. For an unknown reason that left him stunned he couldn't control himself with the woman. However seeing the tears that slide down Ali's cheek, he tried to control his strength and movement. Ali huffed and whimpered. Gerald was too into it that all he
"Hello. I know you don't remember me, you must have forgotten about the incident, but I can't since you are my lifesaver," Harriet said, her gaze as she looked at Ali was filled with admiration and love. Ali stared at the woman confused before looking at Dr Wood to hear him say, "Madam Harriet said you saved her a few weeks ago when she collapsed on the way. She came here looking for you." The memory of the accident appeared in Ali's mind as recognition came on her. "O it's you. How are you? Did you get proper treatment?" She posed the questions, one after the other. Harriet laughed, she was correct about the girl. The concern in her eyes was genuine, and it erased every doubt that the younger woman approached her with motives. "I am fine now thanks to you. I heard what happened to you, hence I have been here waiting for your arrival," Harriet had a look of worry on her face as she looked at Ali's eyes. Ali smiled bitterly, she shook her head, not wanting to think about the s
Vivian looked at her niece's face and her heart clenched with sorrow. When her sister was still alive, Ali never had anything to worry about. But after she died and Lucas married Mary, her life changed, and she was forced to cater for her and her brother. Lucas was a bastard, true and through, and she regretted letting her sister marry him. If only her sister had left with the man she loved, then she would still have been alive. She brought her hand forward to caress Ali's cheeks, and said, "You don't have to cry anymore. Everything will get better from here on, Joe will recover, and you will get the promotion you are looking for." "Until that scumbag is fired from his position, I doubt I will be given any sort of compensation for my hardwork. I am not even thinking about a promotion," Ali picked up the bag and began to remove the things inside. "You can't give up. Miracles can happen," Vivian advised. 'Yeah right, miracles that come late' Ali thought, her expression turning
The operation was a success and Ali couldn't help the smile that refused to leave her face. As she watched her brother sleeping soundly on the bed. Madam Harriet proved true to her words and paid for her brother to be moved to a VIP ward. The room and facilities were something an average person could not afford for even a night. Her phone buzzed in her pocket, prompting her to take a look at it. A scowl quickly formed on her face when she saw the message dropped in their office official group chat. It was a notice to her to finish her presentation and submit it tomorrow, because the CEO was reviewing it. Ali switched off the phone with a triumphant smirk on her lips. She devised a plan right there on how to deal with her scumbag superior. The presentation he is eagerly waiting for will never come, and if he can't provide a suitable replacement by twelve tomorrow afternoon, his salary will be cutoff as punishment. The image of his sour expression as he gets scolded tomorrow w

"Grandma, you can't make decisions about my marriage. You can't even force Gerald to get married, he is older," Martin cried out, not liking what his grandmother was planning. "Since you are protesting, let's start with something simple," Harriet smiled sweetly, a smile that brought goosebumps on his skin. Martin's phone beeped, he checked it and nearly fell off the sofa he was sitting on. It was a notice from his bank, informing him that his accounts had been blocked. "No! No! Grandma what are you doing?' Martin exclaimed. His hands trembled as he held his phone up to check it again. "You planned this since a long time ago, right?" He whimpered like a sick dog. Losing his international funds made him feel sick, he could even see himself falling into coma. "Yes. Get married to the woman I choose and everything will be yours again," Harriet resumed stroking her cat. "I will think about it. But please grandma don't go freezing my credit cards unless you plan on losing your gr
Martin returned to inform Harriet of his decision to marry the girl she had chosen for him. As he walked in, Gerald was sitting at Harriet's feet, massaging her foot. Sometimes, he wondered what waves it would create if he someday made a video of him acting fillia and spread it online. It would leave the whole country and the whole of Asia shocked. The personality of Gerald was such that no one would imagine him helping anyone. Popularly known as the god of the business world in Asia, after winning awards for seven consecutive years. He is the king of the Laverock group, ruthless, arrogant and domineering. There was no good adjective they could use to describe his personality, but in looks, he beat even the Hollywood stars and idols. Martin was jealous of him for many reasons and one of them was how people compared them every time. Gerald noticed his arrival but didn't raise his head to look at him. It was his habit to ignore everyone in his family except his grandmother.
