Chapter 2.2 (1/2)
After putting the finished pieces into her vault, Sei went to the Terrace and hurled the remaining parts into the sea.
“Ha, perfect!”
Taking a glass of champagne in her hands, she leaned against the railing, enjoying the view from the deck. ‘As expected, drinking beer or champagne after sweating is the best.’
People who participated in the bubble pool party were roaming and flirting around on the deck. Guests with families visited restaurants to view the fireworks while dining, while others flocked to casinos and the various other attractions.
The soft foam on her body made Sei want to vomit. Her eyes fell on a little girl who was walking around with a teddy bear as big as her body. Judging from their wonderful smiles and happy faces,they seemed like an ideal family.
As she tilted the glass, the champagne flowed smoothly into her mouth. After watching people with a long face she checked the time and went to the bathroom.
Because of that… Michael something, her skin felt sticky with soapy water. No matter how intentional her approach might have been, she didn’t like getting anything on her body.
Her skin soaked in lukewarm water, was glossy, and the makeup that covered her face washed away.
After taking a shower, she stood in front of the mirror. It had been a long time since she saw her pale face without any makeup. Just as Asians couldn’t distinguish Westerners’ faces, they also found it difficult to distinguish Asians’ faces. It had already been seven years since she used this fact to safely go through this job. Sei gazed at the stranger in the mirror for a long time.
After a while, she flung open her closet and chose a cream coloured mini-dress that revealed her shoulders. Dressed up in a simple dress accompanied with colorful accessories, Sei decided to leave her jet-black hair open instead of wearing a wig. In addition to that she did her makeup in a sexy style which was different from what she did in the past.
She then finished it off by spraying some perfume and left the room with a crystal-embellished clutch. Not long ago, she was dressed as a cruise ship attendant, but right now, no matter who looked at her, they would think she was a customer coming down from the VIP floor.
Every time she moved, people’s attention were inadvertently drawn to her full chest and narrow hips. Their lecherous eyes were glued on her slender but athletic body, wanting to indulge with her in the illusion of a night’s pleasure.
Sei decided to enjoy their gazes for a while. With her shiny black hair tucked behind her ears, she visited the casino on board. The huge security guards who guarded the entrance welcomed her with a polite smile.
“Ma’am, would you show me your passport and room key?”
“Of course.”
After flashing her passport and room key at them, Sei entered the casino.
At the entrance, she was greeted by an extravagant view of splendor and grandiose. The mirror inlaid ceiling suspended countless huge, ornate and lavish chandeliers and there was no empty table in the casino.
Gambling was also dangerous. The tens of billions of won worth of chips on the table looked like toys.
Shouts and sighs could be heard from all over the place. Someone who was spinning the roulette screamed and somewhere a bell rang.
There was no more perfect place than a casino to aim for the big lottery prize, but her purpose was not a game. It was a place where cash, precious metals, and all kinds of art were traded like a joke. The purpose of today’s visit was to distinguish customers and separate them from players and ordinary working class.
