The Holy Love Affair of a Billionaire

Chapter 13

As soon as he arrived in the country, Lorenzo called the Paradiso. He will arrive soon to see the progress of his business. This Paradiso club is important and memorable to him. It's been a while since he visited the place.

“Queenie, how's the business?”

___

It's another day for Maria, in a few hours, she will become Scarlet again. The woman was loved by many in the bar. She heard that the owner of the club will visit the place and some say he is firing employees who are slacking off.

Though she was treated specially in the club, Maria as Scarlet never was easy to her. She still acts like any other one who works at the same pace and fasts. She doesn't want to hear complaints from customers and leave a bad review.

Mrs. Queenie approached the moment she arrived in the dressing room.

“Maria, the owner of the club will be here. I know I should not do this but you are the capable one to entertain him. Do you think you can handle it?” Mrs. Queenie asked, feeling worried Maria might turn down her request.

“If that is part of my job, I will be fine.” Maria smiles, comforting the woman who smirks with her response.

“Good girl, now freshen up and make sure he will not get disappointed,” she said and left the room, whistling, hips bouncing left and right. She is a plus-size yet curvy shape woman.

“Okay,” Maria answered and looked at the mirror.

“By the way dear, wear that lingerie I prepared for you. Tonight you will be staying in the owner's exclusive room.” Mrs. Queenie added and finally closed the door.

If that's an order from the owner, she can't complain. She starts to stick the thin soft black sticker to her eyes as part of the costume. Putting on the red velvet red matte lipstick. This time, she will not be wearing long gloves.

Sliding up the thin silk black stocking, Maria noticed a little hole in it. She has no spare nor extra different designs in her drawer but she has not had enough time to look for another set. Maria ignores them and proceeds to another leg. Full of confidence and satisfaction over her look in the life-size mirror, Maria is now a well-known Scarlet.

But today, she is wearing black backless sexy lingeries. In this kind of job, it is her first time doing the service to a customer, no, to the owner. She is a bit nervous, Maria never met the owner and never heard about it. She is not even interested to know. She just wants to earn pounds and save for her daily expenses and bills and once she has enough savings, she will take Morris from Lorenzo.

Suddenly, he remembered Lorenzo. Her heartbeat is faster than usual. Sometimes she wants to go back to Lorenzo's house and beg to become their maid instead of working there but she is afraid Lorenzo will just push her away. After what she did, Lorenzo hates her even afterlife. She was fooled by her feelings chasing Val for nothing. She even compromised her son.

She regrets everything and if only she could turn back the time. She would rather stay with Morris even if they become beggars on the street. But too late for that, the dice is cast and she can't back what is done.

Sipping her cocktail brought by her co-worker, Maria jolted when another knock woke her up from recalling her mistakes in life.

“Maria, he's here. Wear your robe and follow me.” Mrs. Queenie said, entering the room as she checks Scarlet from head to toe.

Maria walks to the mini closet pulling the robe from the hanger without a word.

“You are perfect my dear, please do your best. Tonight is special. We rely on you, honey.” Mrs. Queenie faces her, retouching some powder on her face.

“Yes, I will,” she said, wearing the robe and checking herself on the mirror once more, she let her hair disheveled on the other side, looking more seductive and gorgeous.

Following Mrs. Queenie, they walk down the red dim light pathway stair down to the basement. She doesn't know this part of the club. After all, they are forbidden to enter the place unless Mrs. Queenie asked.

Mrs. Queenie halted, lifting her right hand and knocking three times. Without waiting for the response, she j*rocks her head, asking Maria to enter while twisting the doorknob and opening the door wide enough for Maria to enter her slim body.

“Good luck and enjoy!” Mrs. Queenie whispered as she passed.

Indeed, it was her first time doing the service. Like any other waitresses, some of them entertain the customer by receiving tips and even big cash after satisfying them. Whatever that is Maria, have no exact idea.

Maria entered the room with dim light, it was cold inside, with an erotic instrument playing in the speaker. She saw a man wearing a black tuxedo, leaning his neck on the headrest while eyes were closed.

He must be tired, Maria thought. He wants to relax in this place after checking the situation of the business.

Maria made a fake cough to announce her presence but the man didn't move a muscle.

She saw the e-cigarette on the table, a bottle of expensive wine, and a small glass.

Maria thought maybe she needs some spirit to boost her confidence. She slowly walks beside the unresponsive owner and fills the glass with wine, she drinks bottoms up and before she could place the glass and swallow the wine in her mouth, the man moves and stares at her intently.

Maria almost spat the wine but chose to swallow them. Struggling from it, her eyes wide in shock when she recognizes who is the owner of the Paradiso Club.

Lorenzo? Maria screams in her thoughts. Glad she is wearing a mask to cover her face. How come Lorenzo is the owner of this business? Maria can't believe it but still, she pretended and acted like a w***e.

Why does she always end up with Lorenzo no matter how much she escaped and ran away from this man? She just hopes Lorenzo will not recognize her and discover she is working in this kind of establishment instead of working at the convent. Or rather why she is not coming back to Morris and taking care of her son. The truth is, she has no courage to face Lorenzo. After what she had done, even heaven will not forgive her.

Her hand starts to move. She holds the tip of the necktie and pulls it, making Lorenzo's face closer to her.

“What's your name?” Lorenzo asked, avoiding kissing her tempting luscious lips.

“M-Ma-, Scarlet. Call me Scarlet.” Maria almost made a mistake, but she recovered quickly, distracting the man as she quickly sat on his lap.

She doesn't want to get discovered and ruin the mood. Tonight, their income relies on her. MRS. Queenie said, if she made the owner feel better, everyone might get a bonus.

Maria starts to work, seducing the man with her sexy body, touching her breast to his face from time to time. Instead of feeling aroused, Lorenzo laughs hard. He can tell that the woman is a novice.

“Pfft! Hahahaha!” Lorenzo's laughter echoed in the erotic room while holding Maria's bareback and slender waist.

“What is so funny, Sir?” full of embarrassment, Maria stops grinding her hips, covering her open chest cloth, and slowly retreats but Lorenzo pulls her waist rubbing her private part into growing manhood without any explanation why he was laughing hard.

Maria's body flinched when Lorenzo carried her body that made her cling her legs to his waist tightly.

“W-What the-?” Maria uttered, feeling nervous about falling, gripping her hand to his collar until she managed to encircle her arms to Lorenzo's neck.

Using one hand and balancing himself not to let Scarlet fall, Lorenzo pulled the single erotic love chair made of wood on the carpeted part of the room with a leather touch on the seats.

He seats properly, comfortably allowing Maria to give full access as the couch will restrict the movement as she performs. Lorenzo is aware that Scarlet wanted to perform a lap dance that is why he laughed at her failed plan. But there is always a second chance, a perfect and better chance. Lorenzo smirked, staring at Scarlet's face as if he knew who this woman was under her mask.

Her small face, her scent, her eyeballs, and even the perfect jaw of a woman she memorized since the day they met. Scarlet.Scarlet. It reminded him of the same person she met here in the club. Maria.

She was the reason why he bought the club immediately despite the rush moment with his father's situation. Investigating about Paradiso and later won the bidding and bought the place. This place is memorable for him. The Paradiso Club is the place where his heart thumps like crazy and fell in love with a nun, no other than Maria. The virgin innocent shakes and wakes up his sleeping heart. The same person who left him heartbroken and shattered all this time.

But this woman whose name is Scarlet according to his manager is quite similar to that of his Maria. It feels odd how this woman is so clumsy yet so entertaining.

“What is your name again?” Lorenzo asked, as his hands started to roam at her bareback, caressing her spine, bringing chills and pleasure to Maria's sensitive part.

“S-Scarlet.Mmm..” Maria answered, with a chase of a moan when Lorenzo massages her breast.

“Show me what you've got, Scarlet,” he said, as he started to suck Maria's neck.
