Uncovering The Secrets of Addilyn University

36. WE MUST GO NOW LIKE CINDERELLA

"What was that about?" Claude followed me as I walked out of the cafeteria. "I just told him to back off but honestly I don't know what happened between you two. Might enlighten me for a bit?"

He stopped on his tracks.

"So he's a childhood friend of Andrea. I heard them talking at the locker earlier." I bent down, holding my knees, trying to catch my breath. "Andrea was like slapping her left and right, and then she told him he's useless since he wasn't able to get me."

"Wait, what? What do you mean by "get me"? " He moved a little closer, unpacking his bag, he offered me a bottle of water. "Here, drink this." 

"She's mad at Grey because Daniel and I got close. It was all in her plan to use Grey and manipulate me, manipulate what I feel. All this time I thought he was sincere."

"Well, I thought so, too." He placed both of his hands on his hips. "Now I wanna beat the s**t out of him."

"There's no time for that. We need to go to the hotel where Cleo stays." I stood up straight again, regaining my composure.

"Next time, Grey. I'll definitely hit you next time." He hissed.

"He should be here anytime soon." Claude said as he sipped his glass of champagne. "Good thing the organization has budgets for spying with a champagne on. This makes it a lot more fun." He chuckled.

"How could you say it is fun if we are spying on someone. Anytime, we might get caught." I slowly placed the beef in my mouth.

"There he is. six o'clock." His voice changed from being playful to being serious.

"Can't see from here." I replied.

"It's okay, I got my eyes set on him." He smiled at me, a fake smile that would look like the two of us are having a very sweet conversation. "He's going up on the elevator." He said, still smiling.

I wiped my mouth with the napkin. "Let's go?"

He glances one last time before he agreed. "Let's go." With an upward lip on his face, he called on the waiter.

He swiped the card then off we go.

Pulling out the chair for me, he offered his arms for me to cling on. "Casino." He whispered.

"How did you know?"

"He's carrying a suitcase, just a hunch." He laughed. "If he's not there then sorry."

I gave him a hard look. "Thought you wanted to help."

"There's nothing much we can do, he's being surrounded by his guards."

Moving away from the restaurant, we walked towards the elevator.

While waiting, he fixed his black suit and rolled his hands on his hair. "Do I look like a million dollar daddy?"

"Yeah, but you don't have a suitcase. So everyone knows you are just an audience."

"Aw. That hurt." 

The elevator ding opens and we were greeted by a lady operating it. "What floor Sir?"

"Casino." He said plainly as he fixed his tie and look sternly at the woman.

When we reached the casino, I held on his arms again. "Ready?"

He smirked at me. "Always."

"Be cautious okay, don't fix your eyes on anything. Look as if you're admiring the place." He fixed my hair and leaned closer to me. "There's a lot of body guard."

I just nodded at him and we started to walk again.

Roaming my eyes everywhere, I can see dozen of security guards, armed, not armed, wearing civilian uniform, roaming the place.

I saw him at the poker table. He's standing up as he grabbed the chips of his opponent.

"1 o'clock, someone's trying to bag more millions." Claude said.

"We won't look suspicious, everyone's watching them."

"Let's go."

We started to move closer to where he's playing.

For thirty minutes, we were just there, watching him play, being mindful of the guards when he stopped and answer a call.

"Be there." I read his lips.

"He's about to meet someone." Claude said, leaning closer to me.

"I'll follow, he won't suspect me/"

"Be careful/" He kissed my forehead and I smiled shyly.

It was a great team work how we could act like a normal couple during the mission. We didn't even plan this out yet I think it's working.

As I saw Cleo walked inside the bathroom, I followed him. When I saw a guard about to stop me, I make sure he sees that I took out a tampon from my bag. When he saw it, he immediately retreated.

Before the ladies toilet, you'll make you way past the men's toilet first. When I heard him closed the door of the cubicle, I sneaked outside the men's toilet.

Slowly walking inside the first cubicle, I shut the door in complete silence.

"Hi there." Cleo said. I could hear the level of seduction he put on his voice.

"Be fast, I need to be back there in thirty minutes." I heard the other guy whispering.

The next thing I know, I heard them kissing.

Both were moaning, I could even hear the breathing from here.

"I miss you." Cleo said as I heard the pants unzipping.

This is not what I signed up for.

I heard them unpacking a condom and obviously, I heard the moan when he inserted it to Cleo.

"That's so good, big boy, keep on coming." I heard him say in between moans.

It's been roughly ten minutes of hearing them have s*x in the bathroom and I was just here, waiting if I will find something.

When I heard them zipping their pants, with their muffled breathing, Cleo talked to his guy. "See you at The Fashion Night."

I suddenly placed my ear closer to the door.

"Make sure you bring a lot." I am trying to familiarize his voice but due to his panting, I simply cannot.

When I heard the door shut, I sneakily make my way out of the toilet.

When I was at Claude's visibility, I signaled for him to follow me.

Without any further ado, he did.

When I was out of everyone's eyes, I ran as fast as I can to see who he was talking to.

I reached the bottom of the emergency stairs but I found nothing.

"What's' the rush?" Claude said as he caught up to me.

"Heard him having s*x with a guy at the bathroom then I heard the word "Fashion Night". So possibly, he's the student."

"Very nice to know you were able to maintain your focus after all those moaning." He laughed. "But anyway, no signs of him. Our guy sure is fast."

"Yeah, he was gone in a blink."

"Expect that on the Fashion Night, too. If he was this cautious, what more when he's inside the university."

"I know." 

"Let's go, we should head back before the curfew." He assisted me.

"Do you wanna grab some coffee first? Take out." Claude asked but he's already opening the door at Glider's.

I was waiting for him outside when I saw Demetry and Daniel walking towards the University gates.

I was about to turn around but Demetry's sharp eyes caught me.

"Aly!" He yelled.

I gave him a small wave.

They walked towards me. "What are you doing here? It's almost curfew." Demetry asked.

"We just took a dinner outside. I'm with Claude."

I saw Daniel glanced at me, but he wasn't talking.

"How about you guys?"

"I just picked up Daniel, his meeting was just few blocks away from here. So after I jogged, I waited for him outside." He tapped Daniel's back.

"You were late though." Daniel's deep voice occupied the awkward air between us.

"Alright, so before anyone sees that the President and Vice President is still outside five minutes before curfew,  we must go now like Cinderella. You should hurry too. You don't want to spend time at the detention."

"Don't worry, I won't. I have a shortcut."

"Bye, Alyanna." Daniel said before he turned around.
