XAVIER
It's been a few days of my men trailing her and I've gotten some information about her.
Strangely, she had no parents history but had only been in contact with a female who was hospitalized. But from their different last names, they weren't related.
She sold my gold watch the same day she stole it from me for some huge cash but she didn't use the money to get a house like I presumed or flee from the city, instead she took the bunch to the hospital and gave it all for the treatment of her friend.
On a normal day, I'd go through the club and have her pay back my watch even if she has to work twice the usual for years to pay me back and my guard must've been expecting the same thing as he called my attention.
"Boss, should we let the club take it up from here?" He asked, his face expressionless.
"No, I actually want to see how things would play out. Leave the clubhouse out of this, I'll handle J myself." She hadn't shown up at work since that night and it was expected that J, the man I put in charge of the club would try to reach her or even try to investigate.
She was however an interesting case and I planned to keep watching her. She probably thinks I've lost her or I let it slide but whatever thoughts she had surely didn't hint that I had her on my radar.
As much as it's quick and easy to approach her and have her pay me back every dime, it was fun watching her and it's been long I've had fun watching a person. I loved this game and loved the fact that she was clueless.
"One more thing," I directed to the guard who stood before me like a statue.
"Get back my watch and arrange a meeting between J and me tonight." He nodded and excused himself with a bow.
It was smart of her to sell the watch in a high grade thrift store. It would be easy to get it back with some cash and receipt of the purchase. No hands or necks are going to be twisted in the process.
I arrived at J's office just in time, well, I might've come early seeing that the club hadn't even begun its full operation. No, I didn't come here to stop J from finding out what was going on or to stop my fun, I was going there so J won't be involved in my revenge plan. I want to make her pay and nobody would get in my way.
"Welcome boss, to whom do I owe this meeting?" J started with a welcoming smile as he fought hard to hide the surprise of seeing me.
"I think I haven't told you that you put a lot of work into this business and you bring lots of profit." Okay, now, his brow has arched and he's visibly confused.
This was unlike me but I had to sound as natural as possible when telling him about Nylah, so he won't read any meaning to it and try to dig things up on his own.
"You've raised one of the best dancers I've ever seen and I decided not to waste my time coming out to the club again, I'm taking her from you. I want her to be my personal dancer." My voice was low but my tone was sharp and my words precise.
He understood what I wanted and didn't have objections, or tried to stop me.
"Uh -- uhh, you know... Nylah's our best, she's made a lot of people pay extra to watch her. Taking her away would be reducing the club's assets and earnings." He explained logically but he should've known that I already thought it out.
"Then raise another best dancer. She's mine now." I didn't know when I almost lost my cool.
The thoughts of other men watching her with lust filled my mind with rage but I had to remain calm if I want J to believe my story.
He opened his mouth to speak but shut it when he probably thought that speaking was of no use.
I got to my feet to leave but got a call instead.
"Boss, she's on the move, what do we do?" The voice from the other side asked, waiting for a reply from me.
