CHAPTER-7: LETHAL SENATOR

“Umm yes!” I nervously said.

“I see, I am a regular customer here. I've never seen you here before, that's why I asked you.” She said seeing the reluctance on my face and I sighed in relief.

God Pearl, not everyone is a monster here!

“Oh! Yes. I'm here to spend my holidays!” I said not opening up much. She nodded when her phone beeped. And Annie came out walking towards us at the same time.

“It's really nice to meet you, Pearl. My little one is being impatient now in the car. I gotta go. See you around.” She said in haste and strolled inside to grab her chocolate I guessed.

“Who is she?” Annie asked, looking at her retreating figure as she passed by her. I shrugged my shoulders before we walked to our car.

“Someone beautiful who bumped into me!” I smiled, recalling her beautiful eyes. We stepped into the car, tired by my first day at the workplace.

“Don't tell me you are going for lesbain, forgetting your fiance, girl!” She laughed before starting the engine.

“Oh please, If I were a boy, I could have definitely hit on her. But Lesbian…eww!” I shivered dramatically with the thought.

“Exactly. Don't even think about it. You need a perfect jewel to satisfy your little Toffee…..”

“What the fu…stop Annie. Arghh!!” I slapped her shoulder. She hissed in pain.

“What? don't tell me you are a pretty virgin baby who didnt get her toffee opened by her fiance...”

I slapped her again before glaring at her hard.

“Stop the violence, women!” She screeched.

“You stop your vulgarity. I'm effing virgin for God sake.” I puffed my hot cheeks. This girl has a really dirty mind.

“What the fuck?” She yelled on my face.

Why can't I just curse like her?

‘You are just a good girl. But I can.’ SS boasted.

“You are fucking virgin. For real!” She screamed again.

“Stop yelling! Yes, Iam. Jordan is my fiance, not my husband. I never cross my limits with him because my father is one possessive and protective man on the earth. And I also wanted to know him better before giving myself to him. Is it abnormal?” I snorted. I know in this modern era people don't care about Virginity, But I do. I DO.

It's my body for god sake! My emotions are attached to it. Don't judge it.

“Right!” Annie turned silent then while nodding. Good for her!

“But… Didn’t you try anything with him? Like oral… you know!”

“Can you shut up! Geez! Why do I have to stuck up with this woman!” I facepalmed myself.

“Tsk! You are lucky that you got me, girl!” She flipped her hair back before blowing a kiss at me.

“Don't worry! We will find this fiance of yours and I will make sure you spend your first night with him here!” She promised me. I rolled my eyes. Only if I could find him. I hope he is alright!

We reached her home and mine too even if it was temporary but I was satisfied with my living and job here. We had a lot of fun while making dinner and retired to our rooms.

Next day, the place was too silent and empty as our Manager Callum was making a beeline here and there.

“I want perfection in everything today! Don't make me fire you today! Give your best and don't raise your eyes at them.” He barked at all of us. We nodded even if I didn't get anything.

He dismissed us as we walked back to do our tasks.

“What so special today? If someone special is coming?” I asked Annie in a hushed tone. I looked around to see if anyone was watching us.

“Yes! I told you the owner of the ‘Exotic Cuisines’ is paying his visit soon so today they are coming. We can't disappoint Callum in any way. Do your best and don't get noticed by any of them, be normal, understood?” She pointed out.

I frowned at her, why would I do this? I am not some gold digger.

“Pearl, do you get it?” she asked again. I nodded.

“I get it. Why would I? And how many people are coming?”

“I don't know. Probably three or four. They come every three months to check up and as customers too.” She answered. One girl squealed passing by me.

“What happened to her?” I asked scowling, before wiping the extra water drops on the crockery.

“Excited!” Annie huffed.

“For what?” I didn't know why this man was making me use this dish towel to the already dried plates. Cleaning freak! I think he has OCD.

“To see those handsome faces. I wish I could talk to them in person and ask why they are so eternally handsome.” I made a face seeing her dreamy face.

“You all girls are fangirling over some men. The owners!” I twisted my lips at her. She rolled her eyes at me and let out, “You can't see anyone except your Jordan's face. That man ditched you, alright. Wake up and start seeing some men who can be eligible for you, Babes. There are always other options, you know.” She wriggled her brows at me.

“No thanks! I am not here to flirt with anyone. Even if the Greek God himself was present in front of me.” I said. Suddenly those Acqua blue eyes plagued my vision. And I shook my head. Bloody Hippopo.

“Oh huh! You will forget the Greek God after seeing him.” Annie said.

“And I don't need to see him. I will just do my work,” I announced.

“I don't have any wish to see any middle aged handsome hunks.” I muttered.

“What the….”

Annie almost shouted but I glared at her. She squeezed her eyes before opening them and glaring at me in return.

“Are you fucking crazy. Who told you that they are middle-aged men? The owner of this Restaurant is the Senator of the city. And mind you! He is known as the ‘Lethal Senator’. That's why I was alerting you to behave normal and don't get visible to them. He is a ruthless man.”

I blinked up at Annie. Once, twice and thrice. Senator!

“They are here!”

I heard the girl scream loudly before the main door opened and a few men penetrated inside.
