Eden entered the mansion and met Grayson in the main hall. "Good morning," he greeted him with a tired smile.
"Your suit is ready," Grayson told him, "You should start wearing it from now on,"
"Alright," Eden nodded and headed to the bodyguards' dressing room to change. There were about ten lockers with name tags. He smiled when he read his name and opened it to find his suit and shoes ready. He took off his uniform and put on a plain white shirt, black pants and a blazer.
"Hey man," Tyler opened his locker and put his sports bag inside. "How were your classes?"
"Intense, but good," Eden smiled, and then he lifted a brow when he noticed Tyler's abs, "Okay, okay," he nodded, "When did this happen?"
Tyler laughed and pretended to show off his body, "I trained for my whole life to get this."
"I remember how hard you tried to get abs back when we used to do taekwondo," Eden chuckled, "I couldn't get them either. We were doing the wrong exercises, I guess."
"Exactly," Tyler said after he finished putting on his suit.
Eden pressed his lips, "Say, is the Chairman at home? Could I talk to him?"
After Jack gave him only three days, he couldn't stop thinking about the money. He couldn't get it in such a short time, so he needed an advanced payment.
"The Chairman isn't here," Tyler shook his head, "He's on a business trip somewhere in europe."
"I see," Eden nodded, "Do you know when he's coming back?"
"Not until next week," Tyler replied and looked at his friend with concern, "Is everything alright? Don't tell me you want to resign already?" he chuckled.
"I don't have this luxury in life," Eden gave him a small smile.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Tyler lifted a brow when he noticed Eden's pale face and the dark circles under his eyes.
"I'm okay, don't worry," Eden said.
Tyler hummed and squeezed his shoulder, "If there's something, don't hesitate to tell me. I'd be glad to help."
Eden smiled, "Thanks," Tyler was a good friend. He knew him since they were about fifteen or sixteen when he started doing taekwondo at his dad's academy. They kept meeting through the five years until they got their black belt. At that time, Eden went to university, and that was when Olivia got pregnant. With studies and the baby, he couldn't meet his friend anymore. He lost contact with Tyler, and therefore, they were not as close as before, so he couldn't ask him for help. Not when it comes to money.
Eden left the dressing room and rested his back against the wall as he took a breath and tried to focus and find a way to solve his issue. He couldn't ask Kian because he was already having problems of his own. He also struggles between part-time jobs to pay his mum for her cancer treatment. Kian would never hesitate to help him despite everything, and that's why Eden couldn't burden him.
Three days. How could Eden get money in three days? The Chairman was away, and he didn't have any friends that could help him. Olivia was too busy with med school to get a job and help, and she would mention her parents every time he talked about money.
Then he remembered Harvey. He was a rich guy, and maybe he'd be nice to help him just like he was generous to him and Leo yesterday. Eden took a deep breath and climbed the stairs, and then he stopped and went back to the main hall. He had no idea what to tell him. He only met him two days ago, and it would be strange to ask for money. But then, he didn't have a choice. It was this or putting his family in danger.
"Come on. Let's do this," Eden mumbled to himself before climbing the stairs again and heading to Harvey's room. He stopped and asked the two bodyguards standing by the door if Mr Clarke was inside. They looked at each other and smirked before nodding, "He's inside, yes," one of them replied.
Eden scrunched his brows as he wondered why they kept sharing looks.
"Are you sure you want to get in?" the bodyguard asked.
"Why?" Eden lifted a brow, "Is he busy or something?"
"We could say that," he rubbed his chin, and his friend snorted. "But you can come in, of course. You are his main bodyguard, so you have the right to be there,"
Eden hummed and opened the door. What he saw in front of him was the last thing he expected. Harvey was indeed busy. Very. He was sitting on his desk, with his legs spread and his pants reaching his feet. A guy was on his knees in front of him while he gave him a blowjob. Harvey moaned as he put his hand on his head.
"Shit," Eden muttered, but it was too late to pretend not to have entered because Harvey already saw him. "Sorry. I, uh, I can come back later,"
Harvey smirked and bit his lower lip, and before Eden could leave, he stopped him, "Wait," he moaned. Eden gulped and slowly turned around to look at him. Harvey had his university shirt opened to show the tattoos on his chest and his abdomen. He slightly pushed his head back when the guy sucked him deeper.
"That... That file," Harvey moaned as he pointed at some papers spread on the couch. "Take it to Henry. He'll know what to do,"
Eden nodded and walked to the couch, swallowing his saliva with difficulty as he heard Harvey's moans. He quickly organised the file to leave the room, but curiosity was stronger than him. He turned around and saw how Harvey pulled the guy's hair and pushed his head back as he felt the pleasure growing. He took a look at his thighs and realised how thick they were. He didn't take Harvey for someone muscled.
Harvey sensed him looking and slowly tilted his head until their eyes met. His mouth was wide open as he moaned, and his chest rose and fell with the deepness of his breaths. He smirked when Eden quickly looked away and headed to the door.
"Want to join?" Harvey asked with a seductive voice.
Eden looked at him with horrour and slammed the door behind him. He found the two bodyguards laughing outside, and he glared at them, "That's not funny," he faked a smile and hurried downstairs. Now how could he ask Harvey for money?
