C4 Chapter four

Lara staggered into the red area but luckily for her, she was too drunk for others to notice her.

The restricted section was dimmed with red and black lights and every single person was busy with a partner whether a man or woman.

Lara staggered into a sofa she felt was empty and decided it was the most comfortable place to sleep on. The occupant and a few of his company watched her in disbelief. Anybody with sanity would never dare do what Lara had done. She had even stretched her legs on the occupant's lap.

"Do..nt.. mind.....I...pay...you". She said finally going blank.

While she was asleep the occupant of the sofa just watched her in amusement while his company was afraid for her life.

"It would be disappointing if I wasted this life. It would be less entertaining." He said to them and their tension eases a little.

"She got lucky because she promised to pay me. Don't you think it would be fun if she failed to keep that promise". He said and their tension returned.

Meanwhile, before Lara's interruption, he was busy with an offender who had decided to go against the contract he signed. It was just a simple agreement but he wondered why it was so hard to keep it. The contract provided everything the signee needed.

But they always got stupid and decide to go against it. sometimes he wondered if the signee read the consequence of breaching the contract.

Although the signee was dead to the world they still had a life somewhere once they signed the contract. But once the contract is breached, everything given to them including their life would be taken away for good.

"You got lucky. I will see to your punishment tomorrow." He said getting up with Lara in his arms.

"You know what to do". He said to one of his company who nodded submissively before he walked out of their sight.

He carried Lara into his black BMW which was waiting for him outside. His driver had the door opened for him and seeing a sleeping woman in his boss's arm terrified him. Nothing good ever came out with the women his boss had ever carried home. This nothing,highly emphasized.

He closed the door and went to the driver's seat while his boss silently sat with the woman in his arms. As they drove silently, Lara broke into an audible sniff and when the man looked down at her he saw that she was crying while sleeping. He looked at her then he made eye contact with his driver through the rear mirror.

Just then Lara held his shirt, squeezing it in her hand. Tearing more like she was having a nightmare.

He stared down at her and something in his heart broke. He wondered why he felt for a stranger who had violected his principles.

He felt pressured as she cried more gripping his shirt tighter.

He wondered for a remedy to get her calm down. Mindlessly, he traced his fingers on her lower back and Lara inclined to his touch.

After a while, she calmed down sleeping peacefully in his arms. He driver was in ewe, he never expected his boss to be patient and tender. He wondered who the woman in his arms was. Arriving at the grand mason, the head butler and some other servants stood in order. Once the car stopped, his butler stepped forward and opened the door. Then He stepped out with Lara in his arms and everyone stared with curiosity.

"I will prepare a ...". The butler tried to say.

"No need ". He said walking up the stairs leaving everyone in a state of confusion. But his butler quietly narrowed his eyes at his master's back, certain that something was about to happen.
