Chapter 84 - Here Now

"Does the name matter? Can't we just sit and chat first? Get to know one another." Director Compton asked as he poured himself another drink.

"I would just like to know who gave the recommendation for us to meet, I will have to thank them," April answered, she had knocked the incense out the window but her head started to hurt and get fuzzy.

Director Compton chuckled, he liked her praise, "Come sit beside me and I will tell you also, you look like you need to."

Hearing his remark April pinched her arm and the pain instantly cleared the fogginess in her brain. She still wanted to know other than Sophie who sent her here to this man, it was indeed a set up. She was glad she had sent Aarna out of the room, even being in the same room as this man was punishment enough.

Director Compton sat up, his large belly protruded outwards as he sat forward before he abruptly stood. He walked towards April confidently as she moved towards the window but he grabbed her arm impatiently.

"Take a seat and I will tell you. Come on I won't bite." He added before he yanked her to the sofa.

April fell against the armrest, it was made of oak and hurt her elbow when she fell against it. This although the impact had hurt her it fully woke her up. She sat up and leaned as far away as she could from the man in front of her gripping her bag in her hand.

"Won't you have a drink with me? After all, it is the polite thing to do" He asked as he held out his glass just inches from her lips for her to drink from.

This disgusted her, did he really think she would drink from the same glass as him? But she managed to hold back her disgust as much as possible from showing on her face, "No thank you. Now we are sitting can you please tell me our mutual friend's name?"

Director Compton sighed, she really wasn't as fun as he had thought always asking questions. Other girls he met all wanted to meet him to get closer to his boss, did this girl not know who he was. With this thought, he downed his drink and sat forward so that he was just a few inches from April.

He proudly announced, "I am the director of finance for Davis Conglomerate, do you wish to get closer to Dean Davis? I have helped many girls with this task… once they have helped me first of course."

April felt bile rise in her throat the man in front of her was obese and his breath smelt like a sewer, how desperate were these girls? She also knew it was a lie, her man never met with women and he would never bed random women. One thing she learnt last night was that they were both each other's first, but without even knowing that she knew Dean enough to know he wasn't interested in girls that would spread their legs for any man they met.

She felt sorry for any girl who had slept with the man before her to meet Dean as it was an obvious lie. She snickered and answered sarcastically, "Dean Davis wow now that is impressive." He defiantly didn't know that she was living with the man he boasted about. This was the downside to their relationship not being publically known she thought.

Director Compton didn't pick up on her sarcasm instead his heart leapt at the thought of her giving in to him so easily so he smiled back at her showing his stained teeth. To him April was stunning and he hadn't had a girl like her before, so pure, sweet and stunning.

He didn't realise this was just the first of many mistakes and misconceptions he had and would make in the future.

Ten minutes earlier in the restroom Aarna had just hung up the phone she sighed in relief he was on his way and he said he would be there soon to help. She held her phone tight as she just had to wait for him to arrive. Aarna left the restroom and approached the private room, she tried the door handle and the man earlier had indeed locked it. She frowned and continued to worry about her friend, she should of maybe have gone inside with her. But then who would have called for help if they were both stuck inside?

She put her ear to the door and heard nothing, but that was maybe to be expected this was an exclusive restaurant and she presumed this situation may happen often. Hearing nothing didn't make her happy, her heart sped up in apprehension. She kept her ear to the door and she held her breath praying for her friend to stay safe.

After what felt like an eternity for Aarna she heard fast paced footsteps approaching. She hadn't heard one thing from inside the private room but she didn't know if that was a good sign or not, she hoped it was a good sign. She looked up and there he was the man she had fallen for. He was breathtaking, he was tall and broad, and he wore an all grey suit with his blonde hair tied back.

Beside him was a man in all black, he moved quickly, Aarna instantly recognised him. She smiled and sighed in relief, it was April's boyfriend Dean Davis. Did her man know Dean Davis? She had thought he was an ordinary worker like herself.

She stood back from the door and waited for them both, "April is in there please get her out the door is locked. She has been in there for over ten minutes if not longer." Aarna squeezed her hands as she was distressed and the man in the all grey suit stepped forward and held her hand to reassure her.

"Not to worry, Dean and I are here now." Those words both comforted her and healed her aching heart, she had missed him.
