The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapters 13. What do you want two hours with me?
Laura frowned catching the figure of Fredy walking towards the middle of the gathering of people there. Wasn't that Xavier's voice? but why did Fredy show up? Laura's eyes rolled and found the cold figure at the end of the room. Laura raised one corner of her lips. It came too, Laura thought.
Rose who heard that became annoyed. His face seemed to sulk towards the confused Sam. The price was too high for him to raise.
"$ 3100 for Rose." Sam's voice hesitated a little. He's reached his limit. Fredy heard it immediately looked towards Sam with his sharp gaze. Because the man offered again, the task was not finished.
"Wow, it's still going on! alright, this time if anyone wants to bid back above $3100 then the auction will be closed, how? anything else?" ask Andy spirit. The higher the amount of money donated. Moreover, this auction is increasingly fierce, becoming its own entertainment for party guests.
Fredy threw his gaze towards a very dim corner of the room. Graceilla followed Fredy's view. He saw the strong-bodied man nod. Somehow Graciella was even afraid of the numbers that Fredy would mention.
"$5000 to Doctor Graciella," said Fredy made everyone uproar. They were shocked by the offer. $5000 for just two hours together with Graciella, everyone frowned? what a woman's specialty is that even her lips pale without the use of a lip-splitter.
Graciella couldn't believe the man had offered her such a high. Graciella bit her lip and so felt bad, why would that man do something like this?
"Yes! it's finished! the winner was Graciella to Mr ... ?" ask Andy to approach Fredy.
"It wasn't me, I was just making the offer. Mr. Xavier offered Doctor Graciella," said Fredy a little misbehavior highlighted all eyes there.
"Oh, okay! Master Xavier! Graciella belongs to you for two hours!" andy announced the announcement. Everyone just clapped their little hands, still shocked and confused, the result was not what they had imagined.
Rose looked cynically at Graciella who was still processing everything. His brain, which had been contaminated by alcohol, was slow to think.
"Okay, you win now! you must be so happy now!" rose said with her face down.
Graciella looked at Rose. To be honest no, making people humiliate themselves is not him. He knows how to be humiliated. So he thought he didn't want to embarrass others either. Even now the more dominant in his brain was his curiosity. Why would that man spend so much money just for himself?
"You don't have to do it. Let's just say the deal was off. If you stop, the hospital's got a shortage of doctors." Graciella immediately wanted to leave Rose who was still looking upset. He wanted to immediately meet the man who only looked like his silhouette from there.
"Hey! you think I can't afford to say it?" rose asked who was getting upset, feeling Graciella's 'sook' attitude was good to her.
Graciella turned her head for a moment then looked at Rose with a flat look, "That's up to you. But I've cancelled the deal, if you feel like embarrassing yourself, go ahead."
Rose squeezed his hand. He's confused what to do? he was sure he could win from Graceilla, but why? Who's the guy who's been bidding for Graciella so high. Rose only looked at Graciella who was walking towards a table in a dim corner of the room.
Graciella stopped in front of the table where Xavier was sitting, she was sipping some liquor on her desk. Graciella played her lips, wanting to ask Xavier the reason for doing so, but feeling impolite without further ado.
"Why did you do that?" asked Graciella who was already sitting sweetly in front of Xavier.
"Please say I want to make a donation." Cold Xavier said it without a tone. Pour a little Bourbon whiskey into a crystal glass filled with ice cubes. Only half of it filled it.
When Xavier wanted to take that crystal glass. Graciella quickly snatched Xavier's drink. Xavier just looked at him with a slight frown on his eyebrows.
"Then ... " Graciella paused for a moment to drink up the drink that Xavier was pouring. He needed that to be able to accompany this cold ferocious man. After that he immediately put the crystal glass down a little hard, "What do you want to do these two hours with me?"
Xavier did not answer immediately, only analyzing Graciella's face that began to blush. "Nothing" he answered briefly.
Graciella knitted her two eyebrows together. Looking at Xavier in disbelief, the time he had already auctioned Graciella with so much money but there was nothing he wanted to do?
"Good then. I've been imagining accompanying you must be very boring." Graciella started not being able to filter what she wanted to say. His head was dizzy but it felt like he wanted to continue drinking the golden brown drink. Xavier didn't pour that liquor again. Graciella therefore took the bottle that was in front of her and immediately drank it. Just a few sips away, the bottle was instantly pulled by Xavier.
"Why taken? I'll pay for it! give me! I need it to forget what happened to my life! right here! i paid!" racau Graciella with her eyes that look cute, a sign that she is drunk. He grabbed his jeans bag. Surely I didn't find a penny of money there. He didn't bring any money. "Ops, I don't bring any money. Can you lend me some money? I want to pay for the drink."
Xavier just silently watched Graciella's already chaotic style. Graciella poked her lips out because there was no response from Xavier. "Why did you come?"
"Someone invited me to come." Xavier actually knew he didn't have to answer Graciella's question, this woman was drunk enough to process what she said. And actually, Xavier had no intention at all to come to this party even though Laura invited him. But this afternoon he got a report from Fredy that because of the promotion he recommended. The whole hospital was talking about Graciella sleeping with the hospital director so she could get the job. Xavier felt responsible for it.
"OH!" graciella's voice is rising. Fortunately, they were in the corner of the room. "You're not spying on me, you're a fierce commander! who are you saying is stupid! I'm not stupid! I'm a doctor who can't see my patients get sick! that kid! you don't feel sorry for him! he's scared! that's why I wanted to trade my life for him. My life is nothing compared to his life, my life .. is of no value."
Xavier catches the gloom in Graciella's eyes as she tells him about her life. There is a deep sadness implied that makes anyone uncomfortable to see it. Xavier just silently looked at those beautiful eyes.
"And! You are! Why not say thank you to me! if it wasn't for me! you can't get rid of that criminal! You are! Why can't all men see a woman's kindness! why only look at the ugly side! why is it because of one mistake that you can be so angry! You!!!" Graciella was whining to the point of screaming, she even pointed at Xavier's face as if she wanted to hit Xavier even she was about to climb the table.
Of course Graciella's behavior makes Xavier initially shocked, suddenly Graciella exploded in front of him. Fredy, who was nearby, was shocked. She quickly wants to appease Graciella by trying to block Graciella from going up to the table. If Graciella had made it to the table, she would have attacked Xavier. Fredy immediately pulled Graciella to sit back. But when Graciella got on the bench, she fainted. Fredy was confused to see it.
"Prepare the car" said Xavier saw Graciella lunglai on his front desk.
"Ready Commander" said Fredy firmly. Still a little confused seeing Graciella.
Xavier just looked at Graciella. A crystal-clear tear melted from the end of his eye, flowed down his nostrils and fell dripping down on the table. That makes him really uncomfortable.
