Remember Me, Baby.
Who survives
The golden-yellow liquid in the glass Hansel was holding turned around, making the chunks of ice cubes inside hit each other softly. I don't know how many times he glanced at the big round clock that was stuck on the wall in front of him. The clock hand feels very slow. Suddenly he wants to have the power to turn back time, speed up or slow down ....
The man downed the contents in a glass of two sips. Cold liquid that slides through his throat feels stinging and gives a sensation of heat that travels up to the chest. He snorted and closed his eyes. I don't know how many glasses of vodka have gone into his stomach. Now he started to feel dizzy, but still very conscious. The tolerance to blood alcohol levels is very high, probably because it is used to it.
Ding.
The sound of messages coming into his phone made Hansel open his eyes. He grabbed the object from the table, then read the name of the sender. It's from Lanny.
The party's already begun, Mr. Hansel. Miss Cecille has arrived.
Hansel's lips twitched. He did ask Lanny to monitor in the main hall and to update him on all the developments there, not wanting to appear prematurely.
The man waited for half an hour before getting up and walking out. Wearing a suit that fit perfectly on his body, Hansel looked sleek and sexy. The collarbone line is slightly visible because the tie has been removed and one of the top buttons is open. The color of the skin is white, white clean looks contrast with a black shirt that is shiny and slippery. The disheveled hair and the smell of alcohol emanating from her body gave off a dominant and attractive impression, making every girl who passed by her in the hallway almost nosebleed.
“Mr Hansel.”
Lanny came straight over and pampered her arm as she walked through the red door connected to the main hall.
“Call my name only, no need to use ‘Tuan’. Do your job correctly.”
Lanny nodded obediently and stuck her body tighter and tighter in Hansel's arm. With the age in the early 20s, the girl's body is very well proportioned: a small waist, a wide pelvis, a plump buttocks and chest filled. It makes even though he wears a dress that is closed and long up to the calf, it still gives the impression of sexy and seductive. The dress is dark red, looks harmonious with Hansel's suit and matches the color of the main hall.
When the couple stepped into the hall that was already filled with people, several pairs of eyes stared at them curiously. As an exclusive club, some members have known each other before, they have a scope of association that tends to stabilize. Of course the presence of new people will be very striking. Moreover, that person they had never seen before.
A few men glanced at him with judging gazes, the women scrabbled while whispering, but Hansel kept walking calmly and sat down in front of the semicircular bar. The heavily cooperated Lanny occasionally approached and whispered in Hansel's ear, then laughed very elegantly. Hansel wrapped his hands around Lanny's waist and returned with an alluring smile.
From the top floor, a sharp gaze followed Hansel's entire motions ever since the man entered the main hall. The blue iris shimmered under the light of the colorful flashing lights. Suddenly the world seemed to stop spinning, the surrounding sounds disappeared. His entire five senses were focused only on the man who was chatting with the beautiful girl down there.
“Cecille, who are you looking at?” scold a young man who wears a brick-red checkered shirt and jeans.
“Huh?”
“What are you looking at?”
“Nothing. Johan, where's the item I asked for?” cecille retorted as he retracted his gaze and refocused with the adorable-eyed young man on his right side.
The young man called by the name of Johan grinned with an expression and an imposing gaze. At a glance, anyone could guess if the young man was under the influence of medicine. The young man shrunk his nose with the back of his hand the back of his hand, then reached into his pants pocket.
“You sure this won't fail?”
“If it fails, I will refund your money double,” replied Johan while glancing mischievously.
Cecille excited. He picked up the phone and immediately made a transfer to Johan's account number, giving several digits because he felt very satisfied.
“Do not say this to anyone,” said Cecille, giving an intimidating look.
Johan chuckled softly at the threat. He made a “OK” gesture with his hand, patted Cecille's cheek at a glance, then left while humming lightly. His voice slowly disappeared overwritten by the frenetic music and conversations of others. Cecille let out a satisfied sigh, then turned her gaze back down.
That stupid man, how could he be here? Which woman did he bring?
Cecille tightened his fist and began to step down the threaded staircase made of iron. Everyone standing on the dance floor stepped aside as the girl walked by, some greeting kindly as they raised a glass filled with drinks toast. Cecille's face lifted high, occasionally replying with a thin grin that made him look even more attractive.
Lanny who noticed Cecille approaching towards them immediately brought her body closer and whispered into Hansel's ear, “She came, right next to us. Two seats.”
There were invisible yak ripples in Hansel's eyes, faint smirk appearing at a glance then disappearing a moment later. He pretended not to be aware of the girl's presence, but obviously everyone greeted and mentioned her name quite loudly.
Instead of turning his head, Hansel actually pressed Lanny's back until the girl's body stuck with her arm, growling in a slightly loud voice, “Then in the room ..”.
Such ambiguous words, who doesn't know what they mean? Cecille who had just downed a glass of tequila immediately slammed his glass hard onto the bar table so as to attract everyone's attention. Only one person remained unmoved, the damned man next to him who was still busy flirting with each other with that cheap lady!
He-he .. yesterday asked me out on a date, now twisting each other with another woman. Men .... everything is the same, just use their lower body to think!
“Feet more!” orders to the bartender.
As soon as the drink came, Cecille gulped it down in a single breath, making the air that puffed out of his nose feel like a burning hot steam! Burned like him!
Goddamnit!
Even wanting to ease emotions cannot. Still got to meet that damn Hansel Roux who made him want to puke this blood!
Hansel did not know the girl next to him was drinking alcohol like drinking mineral water, but he still did not want to turn around and reprimand. Just look, who is stronger survives ....
