Escaping Reality.

Chapter nine

Blue's pov

I sat in the back seat of a black Porsche coldly staring at the Wilson family house. I don't want to be here . Old master Wilson had been a business partner to my dad before he retired so my father was invited. He directly threw the baton at me, Saying, he and Logan were busy .

How could my dad be busy . Even if he is busy , Logan would never be busy as long as it was related to the company.

When my Dad asked, I naturally refused to be a bait for catching fishes, Knowing that my appearance would attracted a number of business men . To show how serious he was , he even sent me a good amount of the company business card . Through who ? Through Gwen , the traitor!

When I found out about it, I was so angry that I wanted to snap his neck. Unfortunately for me , he is no where to be seen .

I breathed out cold air . Pinching my finger tips , I picked up my phone to call the traitor .

Tapping my fingers lightly in a low rhythmic pattern. I glanced at Cole in the driver seat , he didn't dare breath . He sat still like a robot , which almost made me roll my eyes.

The call rang on for a long time before ending with the last terrifying beep. I lowered my eyes giving a low chuckle.

" Should I find him and let him sleep in a cell for a while or just block his credit card directly " I asked Cole, my personal bodyguard. He looked at me through the review mirror with a cautious gaze before opening his mouth.

" Master Blue, I think everyone deserves a second chance. Let me call him for you" he said picking up his phone.

Second chance? I scoffed. Right before Cole could speak, Gwen call came in through the car's ipad. Cole looked at my grim expression before answering the call .

" Rex , Rex " Gwen called out my second name almost immediately as Cole answered. I turned my face to the window, refusing to answer.

" Mr Donald , please say whatever you will to justify yourself because Master has refused to answer you. Say whatever you will he's listening. " Cole said .

" Ehn , Rex ... Rex " he kept calling my name and I looked irritated.

" Will you stop the repetition and spill " I said annoyed.

" See , I'm really sorry okay . I knew if I picked your call and spoke to you on your phone, you might get too angry and slam the poor thing directly on the wall " he said and I raised my head sharply at his ridiculous thinking.

Cole's mouth twitched a bit. I glanced at him with one of my cold stares before looking away.

' really, has my self control gotten so low?' what a joke.

" You may get involved in the company at anytime from now. You can't predict . So , this is an opportunity for you to build connections with other CEOs ." Gwen stopped talking for some seconds and I looked at the ipad with some resentment. what does he wants to say .

" Well, I'm sure that's what you thought too . Judging by the fact that you are already at the venue. " He said and my eyes grew colder .

" Did you follow me ? " I asked.

" What , haha , of course not" he said laughing dryly and I looked through the window. A black Benz roars and turned around before driving away with speed. It wasn't hard to tell, it was him . My face turned black. All this while I've been searching for him only to find out he was here. How audacious.

" Rex , I'm sorry. I'm really doing this for your good. " He said and I resisted the urge to my eyes at his statement.

" I know right " I said softly " it's just that I feel like I let him go too easily. A man like him doesn't deserve my forgiveness ."

He fell silent for a while. I looked towards the Wilson house as I lowered the window. I watched as people walked in and out.

" What's your final thought ? " He asked .

" To enter the Wilson company and ruin it " I said in a 'duh' tone .

" That's revenge . How are you going to feel after that ? " He asked again and I fell fell silent sorting my thoughts for a while.

" I don't know. Maybe I'll be satisfied or maybe I'll regret it . " I said resting my hand my my sides .

" This is the first time you are not sure about something " Gwen said with amusement in his tone .

" Of all you said , I'm so sure you won't be happy. So why risk your happiness for something so vain ?. " He asked and I sighed.

"Hmm , It's really not worth it " i replied touching my cross pendant.

" Hang up " I said to Cole.

" What ! Wait ..." Cole hung up mercilessly before giving a satisfied sigh .

I opened the car door and stepped out. Cole stepped out immediately too and I glanced at him .

" Wait in the car "

" But master it's not safe" Cole stated and I almost rolled my eyes.

" You are getting paranoid . What could probably happened. I'm not visiting a bunch of crazy fans , it's just business men party " I said brushing him off .

I went directly inside and some servants standing at the door ushered me in as I showed them the invitation card .

I walked into the hall and saw people hanging around in the beautiful hall . Some people were sitting, some were standing and talking over a glass of expensive drink. The decorations were sophisticated, making the hall look luxurious. Men dressed in tuxedos and suits , while women wore different dinner gowns .

After taking mental note of my surroundings, I planned to walk to a seat at an inconspicuous corner before I start to get attentions .

I had bearly walked four steps when a man in a grey suit came over to accompany me.

" Hello, I'm Mr Brown. " He said stretching forth his hand for a hand shake which I received.

" I'm Maxwell Blue " I replied. I watched as his brows raised slightly.

" Oh, so you are Maxwell's son ? " He asked , as much as I wished to say no . I still nodded anyways.

" Oh you are the Blue Mr Maxwell will always brag about. It's really nice meeting you " he continued.

Brag about me? Such a flatterer .

My mouth twitched with annoyance but the man didn't notice. He called his friends or rather peers to come see me . Some people looked over watching me like hawks . Thank God I was used to human attention or I would have wished to disappear.

" Hey , I'm George" a middle aged man said giving me a business card which I calmly received. I reached out from my wallet to give him a business card but he stopped me .

" No need. I know you're from the Maxwell company. You will surely make a beautiful son in law. " He said and I almost chocked.

Looking around , I found out that a good number of people had surrounded me .

" Wow, I never knew Maxwell family had a kid with such a good face " An elderly woman said and I nod at her with a polite smile fixed on my face .

" You have an outstanding aura "

" Not just a handsome face but also a great talent" another woman said showing her a video of me playing piano.

" Kid , call me if you need anything thing " a man said shoving his business card into my hands .

" Me too "

I watched as they put their business cards into my hands .

" The party is about to start " someone announced and they walked away, each of them with a polite smile or nod .

I suddenly felt grateful that the party was about to start . I looked at the bunch of business card in my hands. I shoved them into my pockets. I suddenly regretted not letting Cole follow me .

Everyone's eyes were on the stage thankfully . I moved towards the back of the hall , searching for an inconspicuous seat . I set my eyes on a table at the end of the room . There's no windows at that end ,so it was a bit dark. I moved towards it slowly .

I saw a maid by the table . I was about to take my eyes off when I something about her drew my attention.

Her long brown hair cascaded behind her back reaching her waist. That shiny silky hair, how could I forget it . That was Regina. The stalker... I mean the stranger . She was dressed in the servants clothing with a large scarf wrapped around her face and neck. Does she work here?

My eyes flashed with amusement. I walked close to her and stood behind her . She was so engrossed with whatever she was doing that she didn't notice me at all.

I stepped aside a bit to she what she was up to . The little woman was stuffing a cheese cake in her mouth. After eating the cake, she held two sandwich in her hand , weighing them with a smile on hear face .

" This should be enough" I heard her say with excitement in her voice.

She surely loves food. But who works and steal food at the same time?

She bowed her face to the ground turning around sharply. I didn't even have the time to move , she bumped into me directly. Smearing her sandwich on my black shirt and hits her head on my chest directly.

What a disaster.

" Oops " I heard her exclaimed

She looked up slowly looking at me with shock in her pretty eyes before pointing at my nose.
