Piper’s POV
His eyes widened, and his brow furrowed. He was quiet for a few moments before finally saying, “Megan, you still don’t understand me.”
Now it was my turn to widen my eyes. I stared into his eyes without blinking. My mind was working extra hard to digest what he had just said. “W-what do you mean? What don’t I understand? I did everything you asked. One thing you should know, I’ve never been this obedient to anyone but you. Ethan, my future fiancé, obeys me. So now tell me what I don’t understand?”
However, before Zac could answer, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in,” Zac replied as he put his cigarette into the ashtray.
As the door opened, two of his men entered. I only recognized one of them. He was a big man who usually stood at the door of the bar.
Zac’s bar wasn’t just any bar. It was a place where all transactions took place, such as prostitution, gambling, buying and selling drugs, and life and death transactions.
Zac’s world is a bottomless black world. All the people involved in it are not ordinary people. They were usually the chosen ones who had been trained.
“What’s up, Boss?” a man I didn’t recognize asked. His body was shorter and fatter. However, his face looked much more sinister compared to the big man.
The moment the fat man walked into Zac’s room, his eyes locked on me, and seemed to strip me naked. I felt bad, like I should be careful of him.
“Take her out and you can sleep with her. Remember, it’s just the two of you. I don’t want her body to be damaged before the men with thick wallets use her services. Understood?” Zac replied with his trademark glare.
Those two men stood before him, nodding and obeying all of Zac’s orders. There was something about Zac that could make anyone bend the knee and obey him. Perhaps he had the aura of a leader.
“Yes, Boss. Thank you for the gift. We’ll leave now,” the two guards replied.
As their gaze shifted to the young girl lying on her back on the table, I could see their eyes light up and their tongues darting out, unable to resist the urge to taste the delicacies deliberately provided for them.
Quick as lightning, the two of them immediately covered the young girl’s body with the blanket they had brought, then the big man carried the young girl’s body, while the other man took her clothes and belongings.
“We’re leaving now, Boss. Thank you,” the two guards said.
“Yeah, have fun,” Zac replied.
Horrible. The girls here must have been touched by Zac’s men, too. That meant they were used to sharing women. If Zac dared to do that to me, he would know the true dark side of me. I won’t let him do that to me.
After the door closed. I looked back at Zac and waited for his answer.
“Well, I will fulfill all the needs of the child. Give birth to him safely. If you want to marry another man and acknowledge the child as another man’s child, I don’t mind, because it will be much better for you and the child. The reason is that my world is too dangerous. I have many enemies who are ready to attack and kill me and I’m also a wanted man by the police. Another reason is that I don’t like being in a serious relationship. To me, sex and women are the same. They come and go without a grip. Do you understand now?” he replied as he lit his second cigarette.
“Ah, okay. I thought you were so afraid of your rich lover that you once called me a mistress,” I retorted.
He laughed so hard that the sound echoed. “I was only joking and didn’t expect you to take what I said seriously. I’ve always emphasized to you I don’t like being in a serious relationship with any woman. They come and willingly for me to touch. For me, sex is just a momentary pleasure.”
“Then I should hurry my engagement with Ethan.”
“Yes. And don’t worry, I’ll give you whatever you ask as long as it’s reasonable to me,” he said as he stood up and walked towards me.
He pushed my long hair to the other side, then planted a sensual kiss on my neck as he slipped his hand under my skirt. Like the previous nights, he asked me to come to his place just to satisfy his sexual desires.
“Zac, you can run our plan now. Jay and his whole family are going on vacation soon. Do as we have planned. Take the twins away from Valdirra. Do you understand?” I asked with a moan. His hands lowered my panties and unfastened my skirt until my lower body was naked.
“You are wet down there,” Zac replied as he stroked my pussy, making my lips release a long moan.
Zac nibbled lightly on my ear, “I think let them be happy for some time. When they let their guard down, I’ll take action. You better get engaged first, then I’ll act.”
“Ok, it is up to you. And one more thing, are you willing to let this child not know who his real father is and not recognize you at all?” I asked.
“For the sake of his safety, I’m willing. After all, the same thing happened to you. I know everything. John is not your real father,” he replied.
I dismissed his hand and turned around, looking into his eyes. “What do you mean?”
“Go home and ask your Mom about your real father. Or go to the Smith Company office and enter your mother’s personal assistant’s room. You’ll know the answer soon enough,” Zac replied as he took a tissue and cleaned his hands.
Waiting no longer, I hurriedly put my panties and skirt back on, then grabbed my bag and walked out of Zac’s room.
Along the way, my mind was in turmoil, and my heart was beating quite fast. No! No way! I’m the descendant of Helen Smith, the richest woman in Valdirra. There’s no way I’m that man’s child. If this were true, I would lose my rights as Helen Smith’s heir. I can’t let this happen.
I stepped on the gas pedal deeper so that the car would go faster. All I could think about was getting to the Smith Company headquarters and seeing Mom. She had to explain everything to me.
I finally arrived at the office. After parking the car in the owner’s parking lot, I got out of the car and took the VIP elevator close to the parking lot, straight to the twelfth floor.
A few minutes later, the elevator doors opened, and I immediately walked toward Mom’s office. Some employees recognized me and tried to say hello, but I wasn’t in the mood to talk to them until I finally arrived at Mom’s office.
I put my ear to the door and faintly heard Mom talking to someone. It was a man and Mom mentioned my name several times.
Whose voice was that? Is everything Zac said true?
