“F*ck! Who the f*ck are you, b*tch? How dare you kick me?!” The kick toppled Luca as he cried out inpain, while bewildered cries could be heard among the crowd as they looked at Kate and Olivia.
“Who are you? Why did you hit him?”
“She made the first move!”
“What an arrogant woman!”
Unwilling to repeat the vile words Luca spouted, Kate explained the situation in simple terms as sheglared at Luca, “I was trying to invite him to work on a photoshoot for our magazine, but he got allhandsy, so I hit him out of anger.”
Despite showing their sympathy toward Kate, everybody kept their silence while refraining fromspeaking ill of Luca due to his connections with investors and Metrostar Entertainment. Luca wasn’tabout to admit his wrongdoings while he rambled on, “Stop spouting nonsense! I did not get all handsy!You were the one who kept pestering me and making empty promises! I refrained from accusing you ofseducing me, so how dare you bite back at me like that?”
“You’re the one who is spouting nonsense! I did not seduce you!” Kate was getting riled up. In themeantime, a sneer crept onto Olivia’s face while she observed Luca. “You’re ignorant for doing as youplease without a care for your company’s image, and you’re a man without virtue for being arrogantand swearing in public! The fact that you bit back at my friend shows how unfair you are, while hitting awoman in public is proof of your shamelessness! How dare a lowly being like you create a ruckushere?”
“Just you wait, you obnoxious twat!” After he had a handful of insults thrown to his face, Luca left for aphone call after cursing at them, but Olivia didn’t seem to care as she led Kate to get some ice from awaiter before asking, “What happened back then?”
“He’s among the lowliest dregs of society. I was blind to have thought that he might be a nice guy byjudging him using the image of the loyal man he portrayed on TV. Instead, he started off by asking meto introduce you to him because he fancied you, then he began touching my body while saying that hewould consider my offer if the both of us are to sleep with him for the night. Isn’t he such an arrogantprick? So I gave him a slap out of fury, but I immediately regretted my actions.”
“You don’t have to feel regret about it. I would even encourage you to slap him harder.” A look ofcontempt crept onto Olivia’s face.
“Now the cover for my next issue is gone!” Kate couldn’t help but feel dejected about it.
“Scum like him is not fit for your cover anyway. Come, put some ice on your face as it’s all swollen.That b*stard sure hit you hard.”
“You ain’t half bad. He couldn’t stand for a while, so your kick must’ve hurt.”
“Serves him right!”
“But you shouldn’t have resorted to violence. It won’t do if you get into trouble over this since you justarrived here.”
“Look at yourself! You shouldn’t be worrying about me! You should’ve asked me for help if you want tohit him, since you have such a small build.” The ice pack was pressed onto Kate’s face as Olivia spoke.
A commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall garnered the attention of all guests as one of themsquealed, “It’s Eugene Nolan!”
“Wow, he is so handsome! Good gracious!”
“It must be his aura! Just look at how the people around him bend to his will!”
“We can only look up at him!”
The voices of a few women garnered Olivia’s attention, and she gazed toward where the commotionwas happening. Their position on the inner part of the hall determined that they could see what wasgoing on outside clearly without exposing themselves.
It was indeed Eugene who graced them with his presence in a dark colored suit. The look he wore wasone of aloofness as he scanned his surroundings with a sharp gaze, which contributed to the air of aleader that he was born with.
Following behind him meekly was Curtis and the rest who was aiming to flatter him. Eugene was theembodiment of power and prestige in Summer City, and his presence dominated everywhere hearrived at, which included the banquet hall.
