Chapter 9 - I dont hate you (1/2)

Everyone turned to look at the person who spoke. It was a soft and sweet angelic voice.

'Eva… why am I not surprised.' Lena thought to herself.

Eva walked over with soft footsteps. Following her was two new bodyguards that Andy assigned to her. She told him that she did not need them, but for Andy, she kept them by her sides.

'Andy never gave me bodyguards.' Lena pondered.

”You should not bully Lena.” Eva spoke again, her sweet voice was calming the situation down.

The three girls were not scared of Eva but only the two hard-looking men behind her. They all knew that Eva was just a woman with no background. Even though Andy favored her, she was not very much likable.

”Count yourself lucky Miss. Shen.” They all turned and left.

”Are you alright?” Eva asked Lena.

Lena threw the shirt over the rack and left the store too. Her mood to shop was now sour by this angelic figure. Gary quickly grabbed the shopping bags and followed Lena out. These girls ruined his chance to have an outfit picked by Lena. He will make sure to remember them.

”Lena, wait.” Eva shouted, running after them. ”Please, wait a moment!”

Lena stopped and turn to look at the small girl. ”Miss. Wu, I don't remember us being close enough for you to call me by my name.”

”I… uh.. Miss. Shen, can we speak?”

”Are we not speaking now?” Lena rolled her eyes.

”Uh.. I mean somewhere else.”

”Look..” Lena walked towards Eva. The two bodyguards stepped up to block her path.

”Chillax men. Didn't you hear your lady? She just wants to talk. Women too can have civilized conversations.”

Lena sized up the men. ”And I wouldn't be stupid enough to go against you two. Does it look like he can too?”

Lena pointed at Gary in which the two big guys looked at him. They saw him as no harm.

Gary, at that moment, felt like his man pride being crushed. He may not look buff or strong, but he was still tall and handsome.

The two men opened the path for Lena. They made sure to be extra alert if this woman pulled a move on their lady.

”Are you expecting me to be thankful?” Lena continued the conversation.
