Sherina's POV
"So, how's your first night here, Sherina?" Grandma Delaila broke off the silence while we are eating breakfast.
"Uhh... It was okay" I smiled back.
'I'm not sure what's happening but I feel weird, they all seem to be in a good mood, even without talking, it looks like they are communicating through their eyes'
After I ran away from the man, I went straight to Delly's room to find my phone and called her, I know it was night time in the island but I really have to call her straight.
Flashback
Ring ring "Hello.?"
"Delly I'm sorry!! I didn't mean to sleep with your boyfriend! But I swear to my grave that nothing happened between us!"
"Uh, W..Wait but I..." I couldn't let her finish her words, I'm scared to hear her answers after I confessed to her what happened last night.
"I saw your boyfriend drunk last night, I just wanted to help him but I think he was so drunk he thought I might be you, so maybe that's why he didn't let me go the whole night. But I swear I tried my best to resist and to run but I really couldn't. he was so strong I couldn't even breathe!. I'm so sorry!"
"Wait Sherina, calm down first!" Delly raised her voice a little, I heard her chuckled and continued,
"I... I don't have a boyfriend. Who was it?" I froze.
'Yes, who was that guy? He doesn't look like an ordinary man. So who is he?' I didn't answer her, I am as confused as she is.
"Well, could it be my half brother? He always visit Grandma and Grandpa at my place when he has no work to do."
End of Flashback
All this time, I don't know anything about Delly. She doesn't want to share anything about her past, I didn't even know that she has a half brother.
"Oh Leon! Come join us" My heart stopped after hearing Grandpa Diego called the person who just stepped inside the room. I turn around and saw him.
Its him! but a little different than last night. He look so much better, I can now completely see how perfect this man is, I say he is a total hottie!
"Have you met Sherina Sze?" Grandma Delaila said.
He walked straight to us and sat down in front of me, before looking to my direction, our eyes met and I blushed, I don't know if he saw through me, but I saw him smirk a little.
"Yea, we met last night" He answered.
"Oh goodness, Sherina must be the one who helped you this time" Aunt Donna chuckled while sipping her tea.
"You should be more careful in driving, Leon. And please don't drive in the middle of the night, no one can help you if you were in an accident" Grandma Diego said.
"You're lucky that Sherina was able to help you last night" Liliana added.
The coffee came back up after I sipped it . 'Eh.. So they knew what happened last night' I glances at Liliana, she looks back at me and winks while smirking.
'I feel so betrayed' I whispered to myself and sighed. 'So this always happens, I wonder who else are the victims of this man'
But looking at him, I can see clearly now, how handsome this man is,
Slim yet athletic with a deep voice and a commanding presence. A healthy looking skin tone. His black tank top is complementing his finely sculpted muscles and his height is imposing! He has a strong jawline and a piercing brown cat eyes. His dark hair was thick and wavy, falling carelessly over his forehead.
His facial features are a little intense, way different than Delly who emits light and a soft aura, how can this guy be Delly's half brother?
End of POV
"Leon, You are on a break, right?" Delaila said.
"Until next week." Leon answered while eating his toast.
"Perfect! Will it be okay if you take Sherina with you to show her some places."
"Hey, but we have plans tonight! Our friends would like to see Leon, after all, Leon has been working nonstop, he should enjoy his break time with his friends" Landon interrupted.
"It's okay, We can take her with us tonight" Leon said and quickly glances to Sherina.
"Sherina will feel a little bored if she just stays here" Liliana added before, she carries her son Don, who is about to cry.
Landon sighed and looked at Sherina "Will that be okay for you?" Sherina smiles and answered.
"Of course" She glances at Leon and smiles "Ill be in your care"
The sun set and Leon is driving his Bugatti Roadster car while Sherina is sitting right next to him, looking at the surroundings and enjoying the ride, Landon is right in front them, driving a high-end green motor bike.
"Just a heads up! My brothers are really really rich, so please don't get surprised" Delly's last words popped up in Sherina's head.
'Look at you, This car is much more expensive than my life, but I dare to sit on it, and the owner is even driving just for me.' She sighed and looked at herself in the side mirror.
"So, how long have you known Delliana?" Leon broke off the silence.
Sherina glances at him and answered "Its been 2 years, I met her when I was just new in the island."
He take a quick look at Sherina in the rear view mirror before looking back at the road.
"Do you.. still have a boyfriend?"
Sherina tilted her head and her one eyebrow raised.
'Still?' She whispered to herself 'Did he know I had a boyfriend?'
"Well I don't have, But right now I'm just focusing on myself" Sherina answered.
The ride took half an hour before they reached their destination, Sherina get off from the car and saw the place, it is an exclusive VIP club in the middle of the town.
Sherina notices the butlers fall in line in front of her, and the guy who opened the door for her is a little different, A good looking man with a gray colored hair, wearing a full black suit with a gray tie, he then walked around and opened the door car for Leon,
Leon get off from the car and stood up for a moment, the man offered Leon a stick of cigar, he gently placed it at Leon's mouth and light up the cigar for him before Leon looks at Sherina to offer her a cigar.
"You smoke?"
Sherina looked away "Nope"
"What about drinking?" Leon added.
Sherina stares at him for a moment and nods.
"Can you hold your liquor?"
She then looked away and smirked a little "Yeah"
Sherina feels like laughing after Leon asked that question. He may not know, but Sherina has a very high tolerance in alcohol, that's why she worked as a Champagne girl at an exclusive club 5 years ago. Even until now, she never experienced passing out because of alcohol.
They waited for Landon and they all went inside together. The VIP club has an exclusive and upscale venue, high-end decor and stylish atmosphere.
"Landon! Leon finally, you've come!" A tall man wearing a suit and holding a high-end bottle of an alcohol approaches them and escorted them to an exclusive VIP lounge. Sherina sits on the side of the couch while Leon and Landon are busy greeting the other men. They all seem to be young rich men, all of them are wearing handmade suits, custom shoes and unique, customized perfumes.
"Hello. I'm Veronica" A woman approaches Sherina and offers her a glass with red wine in it.
"I'm Sherina" She gently took the glass and make a toast with her before sipping a little.
"So, Are you Landon or Leon's girl?"
Sherina blushed and quickly waves her hand "No no, I'm just a friend of Leon's sister."
"Sister? "The woman's face was filled with confusion, "Leon has a sister?" She questioned.
Before she could answer, A man behind Veronica suddenly sits in the middle of them and extends his hand to Sherina.
"Hi, My name is Karl, such a good looking lady like you looks a little lost and went here. Are you single? Would you like to hang out"
"Ehhh..." She froze and couldn't answer, the man seems to be a playboy and have a persuasive personality.
"What do you say? I'd like me some fresh and young woman tonight." The man takes his hands back, gulped his wine and slowly gets closer to Sherina's face. But before he could get more closer, Leon who saw the situation suddenly sits in the middle of them, blocking Karl's face with his wine glass.
"Oh! sorry sorry" Karl said while giggling before he turns to Veronica, he grabs her and kisses her straight without talking.
Sherina gently pulls Leon's suit and whispers, "Thank you" Leon looks at her and smiles
"It wont happen again" He whispers back before offering his glass for a toast. Sherina raised her glass, clink with his and sips.
Sherina didn't notice how Leon raised his hand behind her to make a sign. The gray haired man who is standing not far from them nods and walk towards Sherina.
"I have to greet the others, I'll be back as soon as I'm finish, Mr. Kang will accompany you for awhile."
Sherina turns around and saw the gray haired man bowed down while standing right next to her. Leon took his last sip of wine before standing and leaves.
She also sips her wine and sighed, he glances at Mr. Kang and said "Sit here with me, I have no one to talk to" Mr. Kang who is a bit unsure sighed and follows her demand.
He gently sits beside her, Sherina reached a new glass and pours some wine before giving it to Mr. Kang.
"So, What's your name?" Mr. Kang looks at her and answered "Kang Minho"
"Sherina Sze. How long have you been working with Leon?"
"A very long time ago."
"Do you know Delliana Liu? His sister?" The man paused for a moment and didn't answer.
"It seems no one here knows about Delliana?" Sherina added. Mr. Kang sighed and answered.
"Ms. Delliana Liu's identity was remained hidden from the public due to some private reasons"
"hmm...Okay." Sherina said before offering a toast, Mr. Kang clink his glass with her before sipping again.
"If its something private, I wont ask about it anymore. Besides, I respect Delly's privacy just as much as she respects mine" She smiled to Mr. Kang.
Leon who is looking straight at Sherina's direction and not paying attention to the people around him, feels a little jealous, seeing her laugh and talk with Mr. Kang.
He knows that Mr. Kang is only doing what he was ordered, but he can't stop feeling uneasy and jealous, hoping he should be the one who's talking with her right now and not Mr. Kang.
Leon let out a huge sighed and drinks his wine in his glass straight.
"Whoa! Whoa! Careful with the wine" Landon chuckled, It is obvious that Leon is taller than Landon but Landon still rest his elbow at Leon's shoulder, before pouring some more wine to his empty glass.
"Do you want to take some girls tonight?" Landon added.
Leon glances at him. "Damn right I will"
"Whoa! Someone's growing up, This'll be your first time taking a woman home huh."
The men laughs and added "Have you picked someone already?"
"If not, we can help you choose a woman"
"Do you even know what Leon's type?"
Leon smirks and gulped his wine again, "Actually, I already found one"
The long night has passed, Landon was picked up by the family butler. While Leon and Sherina was escorted by Mr. Kang to a different high-end black car.
Mr. Kang sits beside the driver while Leon and Sherina are both in passenger seat. She notices Leon who is resting his head in the car window, She pulls him gently and puts his head to her shoulder, She looks at Leon and holds his cheek to support his head. She saw Leon opens his eyes a little before closing them back again.
"I'm glad you are here now.." Leon murmured but Sherina heard his words. She was surprised after hearing that from someone who she just met but before she can answer back, Leon already wrapped his hands to her waist and embraced her.
"I love you" He suddenly whispers to her ear before getting his face close to her neck and gently bit her, leaving a kiss mark on her neck. "Oww.." She quietly moaned.
Sherina who's a little shocked, still smiled and whispered. "So cute" . She doesn't understand if its because of the wine she drunk that's why she acted like that, or maybe she just couldn't take it seriously.
For her, Leon is just one young man who is seeking for attention that's why he was able to say those words to her. She already knew that she is 2 years older than Leon, so its impossible for her that Leon will like him in a romantic way.
Mr. Kang who is looking at them in the rear view mirror smiled and inhaled,
"Does the beast has been tamed?" He whispered to himself before looking away.
