Chapter 149 - Introductions (1/2)

”Why aren't you back in Amsterdam by now?” Stella spoke up. ”As far as I know, you don't have to be here anymore, the contract has been already signed.”

”What contract?” Katherine looked at Stella before looking back at Scott, who was rooted to his spot, glaring daggers at Stella.

”He signed a contract with Levinson's Corp. I mean his company.” Stella replied to her before shifting her gaze back to Scott. ”You didn't answer me man. Why aren't you going back? Don't you have en entire conglomerate to look after?”

”Cong-conglomerate?” Katherine shifted her eyes to Scott. ”Y-you lied to me!” It was more like a statement. ”You as****e!” She cursed him before walking away.

”Nice work, Stella.” Scott threw an accusing look at her before he walked away, going after Katherine.

”Did I say something which I shouldn't have?” Stella asked, still looking at their retreating figures which soon disappeared in the crowd.

”Looks like you did.” It was Blake who replied to her.

”Crap!” She pursed her lips before shrugging her shoulders. ”But serves him right. Who told him to lie to Katherine?”

”So how is it going between you two? All good?” She turned her attention towards the other couple as she leaned her head against Adam's shoulder.

”Yeah!” Lilian nodded, she was about to continue when Blake interrupted her.

”More like steamy.” He added with a wink, making her roll her eyes.

”We need to find Mr. Nelson and then leave. We have a meeting to attend.” Lillian grabbed onto his arm before dragging him away, leaving Stella and Adam to themselves.

”I am getting bored.” Stella murmured as she looked up at Adam.

”Shall we go back?” Adam asked her as he moved his hand to her face.

”Not yet!” She replied, leaning her face into his open palm.

”Let's grab a drink then.” Adam added before guiding her to the bar.

”You know what to do with this, right?” Taylor purred next Rachel's ear.

They were inside her bedroom and he had her pinned against the wall, right next to the door.

”I do! I had to make her drink this and then send her here.” Rachel replied in between her breaths. They had just shared a hot kiss, and her mind was still hazy.

”Good girl. I will give you your payment next time.” Taylor spoke up as he began to fix his coat. ”Just give me a call when it's done.” He ordered her before walking out.

Rachel looked at the closed door before shifting her eyes to the small transparent packet in her hand which contained some light yellow crushed crystals. She had seen the powder before and knew what it was, a very potent aphrodisiac. One dose of this can make you crave for sex for an entire night. Nothing else could cure the rising temperature of the body. She had taken it one before, more specifically she was forced to.

”Let's see if Adam can even look at you after tonight.” She muttered under his breath.

She put the packet inside her clutch and walked out after fixing her gown, her lips were already curled up in a victorious smile.

”Katherine? Listen to me, please.” Scott was almost jogging now, trying to catch up with her as she walked towards her car.

”What new lie do you want me to listen to now?” Katherine replied to him without turning back to look at him.
