Chapter 7 Gold necklace with Ancient pendant
- ***
- Kyle's POV
- I walked into the house only to meet the usual event, Dad and Mom yelling at each other. I'm so used to it, I am so sure this house is gonna collapse one day.
- I put on my headset and headed to my room right away, I didn't even bother going to the kitchen to get my dinner because.. I have lost my appetite.
- I layed on my bed- So tired and sad. I was starting to feel bad
- What have I done?
- I really need to work on this habit of getting angry unnecessarily.
- Did I really have to snub Audrey all day just because she was staring at my worst enemy?
- Not just staring, she looked like she... Oh no, I think I'm the one who is jealous. Jealous that one-day, Simon could use his wealth to have Audrey when she belongs to me
- Yeah Audrey and I deserve each other because we both have something in common.
- Simon already has almost all the girls, she shouldn't look at him that way, it hurts...
- But seriously am I supposed to snub a girl like her? The same girl I liked at first sight most especially when she told me about her background.
- Ah, she might hate me after the way I treated her, I've got to apologize to her tomorrow... Tomorrow?
- Why not now? Afterall , I know where she works.
- I stood up, changed into a casual home outfit. A sweater top which has a hood and jeans trouser.
- Looks like the rain is about to fall heavily, so I quickly took an umbrella and left the house.
- My parents won't even ask of where I am going to since the rain is about fall -because they were busy, busy quarrelling.
- I'm sure the kid they are quarrelling over, will be happy whereever he is ..of course, he would be so happy that he isn't staying in a quarrelsome home like this.

- Audrey's POV
- "Pasta, cheese, chicken" Simon ordered "As take home" He added.
- It should be because of the rain that's the reason why he can't wait to have some now and eat. Why do I even care, it's not like I enjoy watching him eat.
- When i turned to go get his order, he suddenly said "I wonder when there would be a menu list instead of some crazy people coming to ask for what I want"
- "I'm not crazy" I murmured."But maybe you are..."I added before leaving.
- Is it my fault or problem that the restaurant do not have menu lists?
- This guy has a big problem.
- I went and got his orders then returned to give it to him..
- There was a sudden thunderstorm then the rain began to pour heavily.
- He grabbed the food from me, then took out his phone and made a call, he just said "Now" and not too long later, I saw a car drive to the front of the restaurant.
- "Leave my way" He stood up and said.
- My bad, I've been standing in front of him since I served him.
- He hit me cruelly with his shoulder before leaving, I felt something drop on me then to the floor.
- Aw! And The fragrance it was so unresisitable. His cologne is so strong and sweet.
- I wanted to walk away when I saw a necklace on the floor, it must have been Simon's.
- A beautiful pure gold necklace but with an ancient pendant. I almost laughed.
- The necklace itself is gold and new but why is he using an inferior key pendant? Isn't there money to get a new good one?
- "Everyone, attend to no more customers and leave... Looks like the rain won't stop till night falls" We heard Mrs Blakeston's voice from up the stairs.
- Felix went to the door immediately and turned the small chart on it to "Opened" while the outside revealed "Closed".
- Customers began to leave and I saw Vivian walked over to that man and pecked him on his cheeks, He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out some money and gave it to her.
- Ah! Now I understand better, the man is her Man friend and this man here is old enough to be her father.
- She waved at him then the man walked to the door.
- When Vivian turned back, he grinned and waved at me and I felt like slapping him ... I wish I could.
- "So, let's hurry and leave" Vivian said when she saw me.
- "Uhm Vivian, can I talk to you about something? "I asked her when she came closer.
- "Of course "She said with a little smile.
- "That Man is your manfriend right?" I asked her and she raised her brows and kept mute for a while when she wanted to speak, the rain began to fall heavily.
- Geez!!
- "Kids , aren't you leaving" One of the older chefs yelled at us.
- "Come on, let's go" Felix said to us.
- We received our daily pay and picked our things then came out of the building.
- Oh my God, It's raining so heavily, I'm so gonna get drenched by the rain.
- "Is there anyone with an Umbrella?" Felix asked.
- "No , none of us knew rain will fall today" I half-yelled at him..
- "We are gonna pass through this together then" He pull off his shirt.. Gosh, his chest, his abs and the red pointed nipples.
- No, Audrey, No!.
- "Let's go Vivian" He said.
- Oh I seem to have forgotten that we don't pass through the same route.
- "See you tomorrow Audrey" Vivian said as Felix raised his shirt above him, in place of an umbrella and he used it to cover himself and Vivian.
- "Maybe you can pull off your shirt or skirt too.. "Felix said and I shot him a Stern glare.
- "Just joking babe" He chuckled.
- "Let's do this Vivian and make sure you don't swim in the Rain Audrey" He said to me and I nodded gently.
- "One, two, Jump! "He and Vivian jumped into the rain and scurried away.
- ****
- Once again...I was the only one left, Oh God,I'm stuck here.
- A drop of the rain hasn't touched me yet but I was already feeling Cold and shivering.
- As the rain poured down heavily, the day became darker..
- I took my backpack off my back...
- "This should do the trick"I muttered
- I raised my bag above my head and ran into the rain.
- I continued to run without stopping but I had to stop at a time and walk because I was tired.
- Sduddenly a car sped passed me and stopped in front of me.
- Oh tell me, it's a helper!.
- The door opened and a man came out of it..
- "You? This man! "
- Vivian's Man friend.
- He smiled; "Come on baby, should we do it here in the rain or in my car?" He said with an evil grin.
- I frowned and walked away from him as if no one was talking to me.. But he grabbed me from behind and my bag fell on the wet ground.
- He held my two hands tight from the back.
- "Leave me alone "I screamed.
- "You are too sturbborn, you are so sweet to be resisted. Didn't I say I'll pay you but you won't listen. Now I can get it all I want without giving you a dime" He said and dragged me to his car.
- "Help me" I tried to scream but he covered my mouth and I kept struggling with him
- "Leave her alone" A muscular voice echoed.
- I continued to struggle, in the midst of troubles and bad luck, I still turned to see who it was.
- It was... It was him.
