Chapter 4: A tease to prove loyalty

As she sat by the entrance with Sam, her security guard, Diva, the owner of the restaurant who had been seen with the tycoon on the rooftop by Sandra, saw Sandra waiting for the private cab. Sandra had argued with the tycoon on the rooftop. Diva had also witnessed Sandra pay for the supper she had consumed while being invited out by the tycoon.

“I suppose I messed up their union. Why is she leaving alone now?” She asked the security guard as if she was feeling bad about her previous behavior with the tycoon. Sandra was still waiting for the Taxi like if she were a lost pet.

Everyone who walked by saw her in anguish, and some even sympathized with her. She felt unremarkable and resented her time with the rich Mark. As they spotted Sandra at the hiking place inside the mall, Diva and Sam continued to talk as they stood by the door.

“It appears that there was some misunderstanding between the two.” Sam, the security guy murmured, glancing at Sandra as she waited for a private taxi outside the restaurant. He knew it was because of his female boss, who was discovered on the shopping mall’s tower rooftop and accused of having an affair with the billionaire.

“Where has her boyfriend gone? Does he still hang out there?” Diva inquired with security while examining her messages on her iPhone.

“I guess so, since he didn’t follow her.” He responded, but his boss lady saw this as an opportunity to return to the tycoon and spend more time with him. She took the elevator up to the rooftop to see whether Mark was still there. When she got out of the lift, she observed the tycoon alone, admiring the beauty of the city. It appeared to her that he didn’t care about Sandra, the woman he had invited to a picnic. She noticed the tycoon and approached him with a smile on her face.

“There you have it, papa. I’ve been looking for you everywhere.” As she reached Mark on the rooftop, where he had been since Sandra had left him, she said this. Mark noticed Diva and looked at her as she approached.

“I was still waiting for the lady who had brought me up here to come and take me to my Bugatti and ride with me to my hotel room.” When Diva approached him, he responded. He folded her in his arms, just like his new lover. They started kissing while looking out through the opening at the beauty of the city. While the tycoon was enjoying his time with the restaurant’s owner, Diva, Sandra’s auntie observed her brother’s daughter.

“You came with a man and now you’re going home by yourself. Where is your rich man, my baby?” Naomi, Sandra’s auntie, enquired as she passed by Sandra. Sandra folded her arms, looking perplexed and unhappy.

“My love, come here. You are not permitted to wait on the street when your auntie is present.” Naomi said this as she wrapped her arms around Sandra. When she experienced her aunt’s consolation, she sobbed. She could even now interact.

“The billionaire requested an evening out but expected me to pay for everything.” She said this while wiping away her tears. Her auntie was enraged by her remark. Her brother’s child was identified as the girl who had been played. She pulled away from her and looked at her, intending to side with Sandra.

“What a stingy mean-spirited miser he is. He extorts every little penny your mother gave you while he has billions in his account.” Sandra saw her auntie was outraged and bewildered by the forty-year-old tycoon’s treatment of her brother’s child. She grabbed Sandra and walked to the shopping mall’s elevator, which would take them to the roof top where the billionaire was relaxing.

“Where are we going, aunt?” Sandra yelled as she realized her auntie was about to confront Mark. She worried that her auntie’s rage would make Mark and Diva seem bad.

“To make fun of this stingy, selfish aristocrat. How can he ask you out on a date just to spend your money?” They entered the lift when she responded. Sandra entered the lift with her aunt, her purse clutched tightly in her arms.

“Please don’t aggravate the situation. Maybe he was just trying to put me to the test.” Sandra expressed her concern as she witnessed her aunt about to embarrass the billionaire, who is still on the rooftop with the restaurant boss, Diva. She spoke to her as the lift moved up to the rooftop.

“No, I will not.” She responded to Sandra’s concern until they reached the rooftop. Sandra and her auntie were observed by the restaurant’s security when they entered the elevator. He suddenly remembered his boss lady, Diva, who was at the moment with the billionaire. He intended to strike quickly in defense of his boss lady.

“I’m expecting something fishy. I agreed to check into it.” He kept thinking to himself before taking the elevator and accompanying Sandra and her aunt up to the rooftop. Sandra and her auntie had already arrived to the rooftop and were on their way to where the tycoon was relaxing with Diva. She became more enraged as they got closer. She even contemplated shooting the tycoon if she had a gun.

“You’re such a womanizer. A Billionaire extorting the remaining funds from my child. How dare you ask her out and persuade her to pay the full amount for the meal you have ordered for both of you.” Naomi yelled at Mark after approaching him and finding him with Diva folded in his arms. Sandra trembled when Mark approaches them, frowning.

“I was teasing her because I believe that this new era understands that there is no such thing as man or woman anymore. She chose to scold me before fleeing.” Mark yelled at Naomi, but security, Sam, approached the bickering people closer to settle the situation. However, the debate continued without any mention of the law enforcement officers.

“Aren’t you the first to abandon her with this whore?” She inquired, indicating Diva with her finger. Diva had been proven and was forced to interfere.

“I am the restaurant female boss, not a whore. Correct yourself, old lady.” When she pointed the finger back at Naomi, Sandra’s auntie, she threatened her. The Melon security agency was witnessing the rooftop altercation but chose not to notify Joel, Sandra’s father, about the incident. They would only intervened when things got out of hand on the top of the building.

“You are, in fact, a whore. Mark has been behaving suspiciously since requesting that you bring him up to this rooftop. We’ve got you wrapped in his loving embrace now.” Sandra yelled at Diva, but her actions enraged her. She slapped her and fell unconscious after Diva slapped her. The security guard arrived to enforce the law.

“Pause right now!” He yelled while resolving the fight. Sandra was being assisted to her feet by her irate auntie at this point. Sandra had predicted the exact same thing that was happening. Diva walked to the elevator after smacking Sandra, leaving Sandra in the care of her auntie, while the tycoon stood with his hands in the pockets of his black Louis Vuitton suit. Naomi yelled at Diva, who was making her way slowly to the elevator, after she had helped Sandra stand and face the billionaire.

“You orchestrated this. You ruined my daughter’s first date.” Diva laughed as a result of her yell. Sandra’s night out with Mark appeared to have been wrecked by the boss of the restaurant where Sandra had chosen to dine.

“Was this her very first date? I imagined they came to play because Mark needed someone to entertain him this evening.” Diva responded while on her way to the elevator, leaving Mark facing Sandra while her auntie looked at her. Sam, the security guard, stayed since he realized that the wealthy man and his lady’s fight was still raging.

“Go home, people, and stop fighting in public.” Sam stated, looking at Mark. At this point, the tycoon’s four guards stood next to him but did nothing but wait to hear from their master. Sandra began to cry as she looked at the billionaire who had promised to take her out only to ruin her evening, but the tycoon had an alternate strategy.

“Please give me your account information; I’d like to give you some money as a thank you for coming to meet with me.” Mark made a remark while standing close to Sandra before reaching the lift. His security surrounded him. Naomi’s heart was filled with hope as a result of Mark’s words of promise. While standing next to Sam, the security, she heard Mark ask for Sandra’s bank account details. There was no need for the lady to be reluctant. She needed the money so that her younger sister wouldn’t tease her about her night out with a tycoon.

“Oh, my God. That sounds fantastic. You’re such a wonderful person.” Naomi complimented Mark as Sandra handed over her banking details to him. He sent a hundred thousand dollars right away. Sandra felt like a tycoon’s queen as a result, despite Mark’s idiotic conduct at first. She was grateful to her auntie for encouraging her to visit the billionaire in person.

“I’ll take her home and then go back to my hotel. I’m not a womanizer.” Mark responded as he approached the lift, flanked by the members of his entourage. At this moment, he anticipated Sandra to follow him so he could take her home. Sam observed that the feud was now over. It was time to depart the rooftop of the retail center.

“It appears that we amended the relationship.” Sam, the security guy stated as he looked at Sandra. Sandra intended to deliver the money to her auntie right away as a token of gratitude.

“Give me your banking information, aunt. I’d want to express my gratitude for your aid in attaining this level.” Sandra stated, looking at her aunt.

“You are always my daughter, and I defend my family.” Naomi reacted when the ten thousand dollars transfer from Sandra showed on her account. At this point, Mark was already waiting for Sandra in his Bugatti, and Diva had chosen to return to the rooftop to see if the billionaire was still arguing with Sandra.

“Do you believe you’re the only girl who gets the game? You made every mistake. This game is not yet over.” Sandra was threatened when Diva emerged from the elevator. Sandra stood tall because the hundred thousand dollars Mark had given her had given her the trust she needed to brag about her night out with the tycoon.

“I enjoy playing it. I’m certain that a billionaire handed me a hundred thousand dollars to spend on myself tomorrow. What do you have?” Sandra mocked Diva before strolling to the elevator with her aunt, both of them were smiling at each other. Sam followed, but Diva was alone, staring at Sandra and her auntie as they went slowly to the elevator.

“I’m heading back to work, my lady. As promised, Mark will accompany you home to assure your safety. Don’t be afraid.” Naomi replied as she and Sandra boarded a lift to the ground floor. Sandra smiled and lowered her head. They split up when they arrived to the ground floor. Naomi returned to her salon, which was located next to the restaurant, while Sandra visited Mark’s Bugatti. The restaurant’s boss lady and her security guard remained on the rooftop. They then walked to the lift while conversing.

“Remember, he’s the main investor in our restaurant.” As he returned to work in the lift, Sam remarked glancing at Diva.

“I understand that, but he’s a man with a girl’s lust. By the way, security, how do you know that?” she inquired of Sam. She spoke as if she intended to demonstrate the security guard that she was his boss, despite the fact that she was involved in the argument.

“You told me about Mark a long time ago, and I read so much about him.” Sam said as they exited the lift.

“Keep that to yourself, and then go guard the people at that door before you get fired.” she criticized the security, and they both went back to work.
