Chapter 7

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

Jesse smiled and replied, "You mean the one that ran away from you?"

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

"Justin! How many times do I need to remind you to stop calling me boss?" Justin questioned angrily, as he never liked it when Jesse tried to maintain the master-servant relationship between them.

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

"I know, and that's why I want you to call me by my name, probably when we're not at home and in public places like this, to reduce other people's eyes on me," Justin said.

"Okay, Justin," Jesse replied, and 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 to approach her."

"I think you need to man up and approach her nicely. Most young ladies like her would think that you only want to sleep with her and finally dump her," Jesse said.

"But she doesn't even want to hear me out. This is the fourteenth time that I have been seeing her passing by," Justin said as he stood beside his car with Jesse, not minding that the night was rapidly falling and his mother was also calling his phone line, but he refused to pick up.

Jesse's eyes widened in shock, and he asked, "Fourteen times? Wow... I'm only just seeing her for the first time."

"Yes, that's because you cannot see how endowed she looks, as you only have your eyes on the road," Justin remarked, and Jesse only smiled at Justin's words.

"Can we go back home now, boss? No, I mean, Justin. It's already getting late and already after 10 p.m.," Jesse said as he stared at other guys arriving at the club in their cars.

Jesse wasn't just a hired driver to Justin alone, as he was Justin's right-hand man and also a secretly trained bouncer to fight and beat up anyone daring to come near Justin or harass him.

"Hmm... Okay..." Justin replied with a frown, as he knew he had no other choice than to follow Jesse and go back home.

----

As Jesse arrived at the estate gate, he drove the red car into the slightly dark street that was brightened by the streetlights along the road.

After checking with the estate security men, Jesse was allowed to drive into the estate street, even as the security men knew who Justin's father was.

Mr. Emerson Robert was the owner of the estate that they lived in and more other estates in Lemon-hill town.

Justin kept his eyes on the road, staring out at the beautiful street that led down to his father's mighty empire. Just then, a pretty lady in her light blue dress rushed up to his car like she was being chased, and she ran up to his car for help.

"Excuse me, sir... please wait!" Olima's voice cracked, and Justin squinted his eyes to peer at her, as the surroundings had turned dark and with the streetlights shining into the beautiful deserted street.

Justin couldn't see her face properly, and Jesse cursed, "Shit! Who's this idiot?"

Jesse immediately navigated the steering wheel to drive past her, not wanting to stop, as he didn't know if the young lady was a setup sent to make them stop by the way. But as Jesse attempted to speed up the car and drive off, Justin immediately caught sight of the pretty young lady's face and immediately ordered Jesse to stop the car.

"Stop the car!" Justin repeated, and Jesse was taken aback by Justin's outburst. He slowed down and stared back at his young boss.

"Boss, I mean, Justin, you want me to stop the car?" Jesse asked worriedly, but as he stared back at Justin, Jesse saw that Justin was staring out at the young lady, who stood helplessly and stared at their car to know if they would drive back to help her.

"Boss, we cannot trust that lady. What if she's a witch or..." Jesse tried to protest, but before he could complete his statement, Justin had already pushed his side door open and immediately stepped down from the car.

"Boss!!" Jesse called out after Justin, and before he could try to stop Justin, Justin had ran ahead towards the lady, making Jesse curse, "Shit! Who the fụck is that lady?"

Jesse drove the car backward to keep in touch with Justin, instead of stepping down from the car. Justin ran up to meet the young lady in her light blue dress.

Olima saw the red car drive past her speedily after she had tried to stop them. She saw the car stop ahead, making her hopeful to pause and stare back at them. However, she saw a tall, familiar figure step down from the car and immediately recognized him to be the same young man that had approached her earlier in the daytime.

"Oh no!" Olima immediately took to her heels, and Justin was forced to scream out after her, "Wait!!!"

Olima didn't want to stop, as she had previously seen how Justin's eyes shamelessly raked over her body before, from her chest down to her waist. And with the way he smiled at her, she knew he was rather worse than the two previous men that had tried to woo her earlier.

"Wait!" Justin called after the young lady, but she ran and stumbled, fallen to the ground, and allowing him to catch up with her. He approached her, laying on the floor and breathing heavily too.

"Wow... that was an intense warm-up exercise, miss," Justin said to the young woman as he met her beautiful gaze on him.

Olima was extremely scared as she saw the young man crouch in front of her, looking breathtakingly handsome, much more than all the young men of his age that she had seen before. Even though it was nighttime, Olima could see how attractive and well-shaped the young man's black short hair was cut and trimmed to look neat, revealing his handsome, sculpted face and well-defined jawline with thin lips.

Justin was still trying to catch his breath, and he asked her, "What are you doing out here by the road at this late hour of the night?"

Justin stared at the helpless Olima Adams, who was still laying on the floor, having run away from him and fallen to the ground, in her almost transparent nightwear.

"Please... stay away from me. Don't touch me," Olima begged, shivering on the ground, as she was scared.

"I won't hurt you. Come with me, it's very late to be out here alone," Justin said as he extended his right hand to Olima to help her stand up from the floor. 

Olima stared at Justin's hand first, frightened, before she accepted his hand and stood up from the floor.

Justin felt his body electrified as he touched and held Olima's left hand. He helped her stand up from the floor while still holding her closely to himself, so she wouldn't run away from him again.

Olima was still breathing heavily, and Justin's eyes beseeched her body as he saw Jesse finally approach them with his car. He stared back at Olima and asked her, "What happened to you?"

Justin's fist clenched, and his hold on her left hand tightened as he saw Olima's swollen face.

The previous time that he had seen Olima's pretty face, It was smooth and neatly fair, but now her cheeks looked so red and swollen, showing that she had been abused or hurt by someone.

"Tell me, what's wrong? Who slapped you?" Justin asked her, wanting to revenge on her behalf, and Olima finally broke out into heavy sobs in his arms.
