She was a woman scorned, left to watch as betrayal destroyed everything she loved. But the storm she became could not be ignored

CHAPTER 4: THE BALL

LORENZO POV;

Sir, people are arriving, are you ready to go in, my assistant asked.

Let's go.

Mr Lorenzo, I heard about what happened to your company, and its being over a week, but you still haven't brought your company to number one, although your shares bounced up again, THE RAVERS are still not willing to let you pass them, Mr Lim said while pretending to care, but I could see through his lie.

Mr Lim do not bite the hand that fed you, it will be a cause of regret later on.

Other distinguished guest needs my attention if you may excuse me.

I said while walking away, Mr Lorenzo a well dressed but unknown lady suddenly approached me.

I did not recognise her, so i turned towards my assistant who also has the same confused expression as me.

Turning to her i asked, Do I know you and how did you get into this place.

She smiled and said I am the representative of THE RAVERS INTERNATIONAL, I am the personal assistant of the boss.

I gritted my teeth so bad and walked away without even replying her.

This ball was a total waste of time I said to myself, I needed this opportunity to get to know the owners of THE RAVERS, but they just had to send a representative, that was a clear show of disrespect.

Indirectly, that was a show of disrespect, I Lorenzo was not worthy of seeing the bosses face, that was the message they were passing across.

They crossed a line, a line they were never meant to cross, I do no tolerate any form of disrespect from anybody.

Good evening everyone I said once I climbed the auditorium. A single statement from me got the attention of everyone present.

I Lorenzo faced a serious issue regarding my stock price because of miscalculation, but with the help of most of you here i was able to bounce back, raising my cup of wine i rose a toast to everyone, and they all reciprocated.

If you all have new projects or investments meet up with my assistant, schedule an appointment and we can talk about it.

For now let's enjoy our little gathering that the owner of THE RAVERS decided not to grace with thier humble presence as they are more than us.

I added before coming down from the auditorium knowing what i have done will cause a problem of two for THE RAVERS.

I am going to show them who is the boss around here, no company will just arise and suddenly take over the place i have ruled and dominated......

BEATRICE POV:

To be honest Mr Lorenzo was hotter in person than any man I have ever meant, he was so hot and handsome, a tall lean man with a muscular built, you can definitely tell that he exercised a lot, he has a chiseled jawline, sea blue eyes, a pointed nose, veiny hands, I had to raise my head upwards to meet his eyes, and God his voice was so deep.

He is definitely my crush oh lord, I don't want to know what that living Greek God could have done, but if I where to be in her shoes, I would have definitely forgive him once I saw him, I thought to myself.

Hello ma'am I said into the phone immediately it was connected, I debated if I should tell her the truth, but I decided not to.

There was no reaction whatsoever after he saw me and I introduced myself as a representative of THE RAVERS, i lied in a clean manner.

Keep your eyes on him she said to me, before hanging up.

You dare hang up on me you b***h, because of the little wealth you have, you feel like you can control me, you owe me your life, if not for me you would have died. I will get you back for this, I thought to myself

My thought was suddenly cut off when I heard the next word coming from My Greek God, the new nickname I gave him.

Oh noo she was going to here this i thought to myself.

Immediately I called her back, ma'am he was angry he just made a statement that portrayed his anger, and put us in the bad side of the group.

I will deal with this just keep your eyes on him, she replied before hanging up.

You don't know me, I will show you who i am...

ALEXIA POV:

Receiving the first call, I was surprised that he had no reaction at all about me not gracing his event.

The Lorenzo i know detects disrespect, or was he pretending so that we won't see through him.

The sound of my phone ringing. cut me off from my train of thought, seeing Beatrice name on the screen i quickly picked up in case it was something important

.

Ma'am the was pretending, he just made a statement that showed his anger and could put out company in a little trouble.

I became alert immediately i heard a last statement, but staying calm in such situations was the best thing to do.

Ok I will handle it from here, put your eyes on him I said before hanging up.

Lorenzo what did you do this time I said as I switched on the television turning it to the news chanel, I rested back on my seat listening to whatever rubbish he did or thought he could do that will have any effect on me.

I laughed out so loud that my eyes were teary, is this the best you can come up with I said to no one in particular.

That was a cheap method to use, you could have done better, I guess it's because i overestimated you, i said why laughing.

I switched off the television and went back to work.

If you wanted to threaten me you could have used a better method not this cheap trick, your trick won't shake me, but I will give you a taste of your own medicine.

Game on...
