Chapter 7

Justin stared at Jesse's face in the strip-club parking lot, and after a while of contemplating, he said, "You remember the pretty lady that we saw earlier when we were leaving the estate today?"

Jesse smiled and replied, "Yes, you mean the young lady who ran away from you when you tried to approach her?"

Justin glared at Jesse, but Jesse laughed and apologized, "Forgive me, boss."

Justin yelled, "Jesse!.. How many times do I have to remind you to stop calling me boss?"

Justin never liked it when Jesse tried to maintain the master-to-servant relationship between them.

Jesse apologized, "I'm sorry, Justin, but you know that your father will be angry with me if he finds out that I am being friends with you and calling you by your name."

Justin replied, "I know, and that's why I want you to call me by my name, especially when we are not at home and in public places like this. It reduces the eyes of other people on me."

Jesse agreed, "Okay, Justin."

Justin sighed frustratedly and said, "I just seem to like that young lady. I've been seeing her around, and I don't know how I will approach her again."

Jesse replied, "I think you need to man up and approach her nicely. Most young ladies like her type would think that you only want to sleep with her and then dump her, as she looks so innocent."

Justin agreed, "Hmm, but she doesn't even want to hear me out. This is the fourteenth time that I have seen her passing by and trying to approach her."

Justin was standing beside his car, and Jesse's eyes widened in shock to hear Justin mention "fourteenth time."

Justin didn't care that night had approached and that his mother was calling his phone line; he refused to pick up.

Jesse asked, "Fourteen times? Wow, boss! I'm only just seeing her for the first time today."

Justin replied, "Yes, that's because you can't see how beautiful and naturally endowed she looks. You have your eyes focused on the road, so leave her for me to stare at."

Jesse only smiled at Justin's words, and asked, "Can we go back home now, boss? I mean, Justin. It's already getting late and after 10 p.m."

Jesse stared at the other cars driving into the strip-club parking lot. He wasn't just hired as a driver for Justin alone; he was also a trained bodyguard and fighter, too, to beat up anyone that dares to cross boundaries or harass Justin.

Justin sighed and replied, "Fine... it is okay..."

Justin frowned, knowing that he had no other option but to follow Jesse home. It was already late at night, so he entered into the car back seat while Jesse entered the driver’s seat, started the car engine, and drove out from the strip-club parking lot.

Arriving at the estate gate, the red car drove into the estate road, which was slightly dark, with only the streetlights shining bright along the roadway.

The estate security men welcomed Justin after checking the car; they allowed Jesse to drive into the estate street knowing that Justin's father is the real owner of the estate.

They still had to do their job for security purposes for the other homeowners by searching Justin's vehicle.

Justin kept his eyes on the road, staring out through the slightly opened window beside him to admire the estate’s beautiful street that led down to his father's mighty mansion.

Just then, a pretty young lady in her light blue gown rushed up to his car as if she was being chased. She ran up to his car side and screamed out, "Excuse me, sir... please wait!!"

Becky's voice cracked and startled Justin, who quickly sat up properly and stared back at her as Jesse drove the car past her.

The surroundings had turned dark, with the streetlights only shining dimly on the beautiful deserted street.

Justin couldn't see the lady's face, and Jesse cussed out again, "Shit! Who was that idiot?"

Jesse immediately navigated the steering wheel as he drove past Becky, not wanting to stop the car as he didn't know if the young lady was a setup sent to make them stop and for their attackers to assassinate them.

Jesse attempted to speed up on the gas to drive off entirely, but Justin's voice stopped him, "Stop the car first!!"

Jesse was taken aback by Justin's outburst as he slowed down the car ahead and stared back at his young boss.

Before Jesse could ask, "Boss, I mean Justin, do you want me to stop the car here? We cannot trust that lady. What if she's a witch or..."

Justin had already pushed his side door open and stepped out of the car, rushing to meet the young lady.

Jesse gasped out, "Boss!!"

Justin already ran ahead to meet the young lady, making Jesse cuss out, "Shit! Who the fụck was that lady?"

Jesse drove the car backward to stay in touch with Justin instead of stepping down from the car and parking it ahead. He followed Justin down as Justin ran up to meet the young lady in her light blue dress.

--

Becky saw the red car that had earlier driven past her speedily stop ahead, making her hopeful that the car owner had heard her voice.

She was hopeful that the car owner would assist her in getting to the estate gate on time to meet with the security men there, as it was already very late.

But Becky saw a familiar figure approaching her that had stepped down from the car, and she immediately recognized him as the same young man who had stopped her during the daytime.

Becky immediately took to her heels again and ran away as she saw Justin approaching her.

Justin screamed out, "Wait!!! Where are you running to again???"

Becky didn't stop, as she had previously seen how Justin's black eyes shamelessly raked over her body from her chest down to her waist, and she remembered the way he smiled at her earlier with desire clearly written on his face.

She knew what he wanted and that he was worse than the two other men that had tried to stop her earlier, as she didn't see those two men again.

Becky ran faster to get to the estate gate by herself, but she stumbled and fell to the ground. Justin finally caught up with her as he approached her while breathing heavily, staring down at her face as she lay on the sandy floor.

Justin said, "Wow.. that was an intense warm-up exercise tonight, miss."

Becky was breathing heavily as she lay on the floor and stared up at Justin's face, meeting his dark handsome gaze.

He was resting both hands on his knees, bent down, staring at her, and breathing heavily as he tried to catch his breath.

Becky was extremely scared as she saw the young man crouch in front of her.

She saw that he looked breathtakingly handsome, more than all the young men of his age that she had seen before.

Even as it was already night time, he still looked neat in his red shirt and suit trousers, and the way his short black hair was neatly cut and shaped perfectly highlighted his face.

Justin was still trying to catch his breath when he asked her, ''What are you doing outside here by the roadway at this late hour of the night?''

Justin stared at Becky's face as she lay on the floor, looking so helpless to his view.

She had run away from him earlier and only ended up falling to the ground in her almost transparent nightwear.

Becky begged, shivering, ''Please... stay away from me."

Becky was scared that Justin would rápe her, and he replied, ''I won't hurt you, okay? Come with me. It's very late now to be outside here alone."

Justin extended his right hand to Becky to help her stand up from the floor, and she was scared but accepted his right hand, standing up from the sandy floor.

Justin felt his body electrified the moment he touched Becky's left hand and helped her stand up while still holding her hand closely to himself before she could run away again.

Becky was breathing heavily, and Justin's eyes surveyed her body as he saw that Jesse had finally approached them with his car.

Justin's fists clenched upon seeing that Becky looked hurt, and he asked her sternly, "What happened to you?"

Justin couldn't believe his eyes as he saw that Becky's face looked red and swollen. The previous time he saw her smooth, delicate face, there was no mark on her face, nor did it look red and swollen.

But now she looked like someone who had been beaten or abused by someone.

He asked her, "Tell me. What's wrong? Who slapped you?"

Justin wanted to take revenge on Becky's behalf, and she finally broke down in tears in his hold.
