146: Deadly warning

Deadly warning

Lolita and Jeslyn stayed silent before Jeslyn spun the bottle. It chose Ruben again. 0

"Why did you choose to be a musician?" Jeslyn asked. 

"For someone I love." He replied.

The bottle was spun and it chose him again.

"Does she know about it?" Lolita asked with interest.

Ruben shook his head, "I'm not sure she does. She was my only friend but suddenly left and became a musician. Now she's popular and has a celebrity boyfriend but I haven't given up… until she says she doesn't want me." He glanced at Jeslyn.

Lolita sniffed, "why do I feel like crying? In my case, I…" 

Jeslyn spun the bottle, shutting Lolita up. Coincidentally it chose Lolita. "Now you can keep talking." 

The three of them laughed before Lolita started to tell her story.

"I first saw him at one of the concerts I went to… of course, it was teacher's concert. He was walking into the hall with other men. They were…" she counted in her mind before she continued. 

"Four guys with so much darkness surrounding them, especially the middle one. He was simply unforgettable; like a boss with unimaginable power. Although I didn't see his face, if I saw him again, I'm definitely going to know him. I was actually admiring that one but he sent chills down my spine. Just when I was about to look away, I caught sight of the one with a lazy attitude and he had short white hair, unlike the smallest one with blue hair. The white-haired guy looked bored as they walked into the hall. As fate would have it, I was sitting behind them and I could hear them talking. That was then I realized he was a doctor…" she smiled. "I love doctors." She purred. 

"I tried searching for him in the whole of Country Y but couldn't find him. Even the internet was useless. First I didn't know anything about him, so I tried checking with the guests that arrived at the concert as it was a VIP space. Their names were supposed to be somewhere but those guys' names couldn't be found anywhere. Their seats also had no names." 

"So you don't know him?" Ruben asked. 

"No… I don't." She chuckled while Jeslyn and Ruben shook their heads.

"Your case is…" Jeslyn sighed. 

"Pitiful and funny." Ruben finished the words. 

"Then I dare you to laugh." Lolita glared at him.

"Hahahahaha…" Jeslyn and Ruben couldn't hold it back in and laughed. 

Lolita spun the bottle while pretending to be angry. Seeing the bottle was heading towards Ruben, she stopped it on Jeslyn. Ruben saw it but said nothing. Jeslyn on the other hand wasn't aware. 

"Tell us everything about you, Rose." 

"I'm just like you. I was betrayed by those I loved and then I thought I found love again however, it has crumbled down. Now it's proving hard to move on. I thought it would be like the first time where I didn't feel too much pain." Seeing the sad looks on their faces, she smiled; "don't think about it. I'll be fine. It will only take a few days before everything goes back to place." She picked up her bottle and drank from it. Although she hated alcohol, she felt she needed to drown herself in it. 

"Are you giving up?" Lolita asked incredulously.

"Why not? If the love is toxic, sh– she should quit." Ruben intervened.

"Stop influencing her. Your ideas are bad." Lolita hissed at him. 

"I don't fight for what's not mine. It's more complicated than you think." Jeslyn chunked down her drink and in no time, the bottle was empty, so she grabbed another.

Seeing that she can't be convinced, Lolita also started to think of her case but a few seconds later, she seriously shook off all the stupid thoughts. She can't let go of her crush. She must look for him and marry him unless he's married. 

The game continued until both girls became drunk and fell asleep. By now, it was already late into the night. 

Ruben called Lolita's guard to come take her home while he had the intention to get Jeslyn home. 

After Lolita's guard left with her, Ruben picked up Jeslyn but just as he was about to leave, he slipped and fell. However, instead of letting Jeslyn hit the ground, Ruben instead turned and became the cushion for Jeslyn to fall on.

The position was so suggestive that one would think the 'couple' were being shameless in a space like this. 

Ruben was lost in Jeslyn's mesmerizing beauty. He brushed the hair off her face to take a closer look. Although her eyes were closed, it didn't diminish her charm. Ruben swallowed a few times, reading whatever scriptures he could to get his mind away from the outrageous thoughts. She is simply beautiful and he wondered why any man in his right senses would hurt a delicate, gentle, sweet, charming, and gorgeous lady like this. 

At this moment, the door was kicked open and a tall man looking like the bringer of doom stood there with his hands in his pockets and eyes casted down, but could still stare at the two lying on each other.

If it was before the news about this man was spread, Ruben might still be lying there with his hands on Jeslyn's waist but after knowing that this man was none other than the infamous Alpha Chaos', Ruben hurriedly pushed Jeslyn off and stood up, standing there meekly like a child about to get reprimanded. He wasn't sure why this man was here but whatever it was, he must not be offended.

"H– hello," he managed to say when the man started to walk towards them. 

The man ignored him, lowered himself, and carried the sleeping Jeslyn into his arms before he turned to walk away. However, he stopped at the door and turned his head to the side. 

"There shouldn't be a next time." His voice made Ruben tremble. It felt like ice water was poured on him from head to toe. 

After he left, Ruben let out his breath and fell back to the sofa. It took a long time for him to catch his breath before he frowned. Everything was weird. From his appearance to taking away Rossa, and the warning he left behind. 

"What does he mean by that?" He murmured.
