Chapter 8 New Face

  • Aurelio had a blank expression on his face, deep down he was boiling up in anger.
  • But should he blame any of them?
  • Aurelio grabbed his bed spread in his hands, squeezing it tightly as he clenched his jaw.
  • The first week is over, what do he do now?
  • He has only next week and he has no single person in mind.
  • Or should he just tell them the reason why he sleeping with them?
  • “That’s absurd!” He clicked his tongue and got up from his bed.
  • A phone call came in immediately.
  • “What now!!” He yelled out angrily and went to reach for his phone.
  • Rowan was the one calling… “what do you have to say now?” he sighed as he answered the call placing his phone on his left ear and placed his right hand on his waist.
  • “Sir how did it go?” Rowan asked him and Aurelio chuckled
  • “it is nothing good, grandpa and father really know it won’t as easy as I thought and now I’m stuck in the middle of nothing” he replied
  • “I am really sorry boss, what do we do now?” he asked him and Aurelio sighed
  • “I have no idea right now.. I’m going out to get a drink, it’s Friday.. probably I should have a good time alone today” he replied
  • “If that’s the case sir then no problem, I can drive you to wherever you will be going tonight. I can imagine how you feel and sir please don’t fret, I am sure you will have it. There’s a week more for you..it is not ended yet” Rowan replied
  • “Yeah that’s true..thanks Rowan, I’m getting dressed so you should come over now” he replied
  • “Okay sir, I’m on my way” Rowan replied and then Aurelio ended the call.
  • Aurelio released another heavy sigh as he walked to his closet to get himself something to wear.
  • About 10 minutes later,
  • He didn’t waste or delay himself but got dressed up in a white shirt on a black long joggers.
  • He had his sneakers on and picked up his bucket hat then left the room with his car key in his hand.
  • Aurelio made his way down the hallway and down to the large living room and met Rowan already waiting for him.
  • “You are ready Sir, in that case let’s go” he said to Aurelio and Aurelio walked to him.
  • Rowan walked behind Aurelio till they got to the car and and Rowan went to the driver seat to drive him.
  • Immediately Aurelio sat in the car at the back seat, he rested his back and then Rowan spoke up
  • “Sir where do you love to go?” he asked him and heard him sigh
  • “I don’t even know, probably an hotel.. a good one” he replied him and Rowan thought of a good one.
  • There are huge and fancy looking hotels around the city and that makes it easier for him to pick.
  • Immediately he remembered SoloChus hotel.
  • “I know one that would be good for you” he smiled and drove away
  • Aurelio raised his brows at Rowan and scoffed.
  • “if you say so then” he muttered
  • Meanwhile,
  • Erica was presently at work. She had been walking all day in the bar and it’d soon be time for her to shift to room service.
  • Her working hours for working at the bar would soon be over.
  • She has already gotten used to it, working in two positions in the same hospital.
  • Though her boss never wanted to give it to her but since she was desperate to work they allowed her to.
  • Minutes later.
  • Aurelio was still in the car with Rowan and again a black Aston Martin DB9 car pulled to a halt before him.
  • “f*ck what is this again” he yelled out and Rowan immediately stepped the brakes as hard and fast as possible sending their head over.
  • Aurelio hit the seat before him angrily “ I am sorry Sir… I don’t know what is wrong with the driver” Rowan said immediately
  • Aurelio raised his brows .. “ something like this has happened before.. wait… Aryan???” he growled angrily and stepped out of the car.
  • “boss wait!” Rowan exclaimed as he got out of the car too.
  • Aurelio stood with his teeth tight against themselves and could see the car door go open. A guy stepped out in a Black suit and a black glass over his eyes.
  • “we meet again… Aurelio Bertram” that was definitely Aryan’s voice.
  • Aurelio scoffed immediately. “is this your thing now? To keep pulling your f*cking brakes before my car? Or wait… you’ve been stalking me?” Aurelio asked him and shook his head lowly
  • “what can I say? Probably yeah… but still no, I wouldn’t want to waste my time on a petty chicken like you” Aryan laughed
  • “Call me petty again and see what I’ll do to your stupid face” Aurelio said to him with a death stare and then Aryan laughed out.
  • “Seriously? Aurelio? Don’t know I Know it all? There is simply nothing you can do.. you are a worthless bread… don’t you know that yet?” Aryan asked him laughing at the same time.
  • “You know you always try to get on my nerves Aryan.. you would hate yourself for it..I promise you that!” Aurelio replied
  • “Chicken! Aurelio you are chicken! Your dad asked you to get a lady pregnant so you can get the position you always want” he laughed out.
  • Aurelio could not deny how surprised he was.
  • How did he find out?
  • “yeah Aurelio, I know every of your single movement” Aryan smirked at him but still he didn’t react but gave Aryan a blank expression
  • “That is why you have been going round and round looking for a lady to impregnate but they are all turning you down!!” Aryan laughed out again
  • “Too bad, I never knew you were this dumb! You can see none of them is working out for you, so why don’t you just live your life under your family roof like you are really good for nothing and I’ll be frank with you.. I love the way your grandpa is taking matters, I’m sure you expected him to hand the position over to you as soon as you came of age but then BOOM! He brought a challenge” Aryan laughed again at him
  • Aurelio gave a side smile and took steps to Aryan.
  • “Aryan….” He sighed and shook his head at him
  • “ Don’t put the fake act Aurelio, I know how hurt you are because of you are not getting anything good, lemme tell you straight.. you will never get a lady pregnant! I know why you badly want that position and it is take your revenge but turned out you can never get what you want. For as long as I Aryan Khan is alive on this planet earth, you will get no Lady pregnant” he said to Aurelio’s face.
  • Aurelio grabbed his collar immediately gritting his teeth
  • “Bastard! This is all your scheme right?” he growled at him but Aryan could only laugh
  • “You are behind this all right?!!” he yelled at him and then Aryan slapped his hands away and pushed him back.
  • “Sir!” Rowan said immediately and went to him to help him so he won’t lose his balance
  • “I wonder how you were able to get this guy work for you.. I bet your parents knows nothing about this” Aryan rolled his eyes at Rowan.
  • “I will advice you to get your ugly face out of here before I deal with you myself” Rowan said to him
  • “This guy got some gut” Aryan laughed lowly
  • “hmm I see you’re looking pathetic, I can imagine how you feel deep inside Aurelio, but like I said.. just give up on getting that position.. you will never beat what your dad had requested for” Aurelio said to him and turned around to leave.
  • “And like I said too Aurelio.. I’d surely deal with you… in my own way, not just you but every of your men.. and whenever you attack you are gonna double of what you started” Aurelio replied
  • “I am Aurelio Bertram Maynard, wait and see yourself” Aurelio smiled
  • “I see you’re still obsessed with that name, you have just next week . You will never get one pregnant, not even a cockroach” Aryan replied and went into his car.
  • Right before them.. he drove away
  • Aurelio released a heavy sigh and placed his hands on his chest.
  • He felt like he had a sharp pain in his heart and then he staggered back.
  • Rowan held him immediately “sir you should not breakdown.. we can definitely get what we want” Rowan assured him and took him into the car
  • He sat Aurelio at the back seat and went into the driver seat immediately and revived the engine.
  • Aurelio eyes were moving around..
  • “How does he know?” he asked himself but Rowan could hear him
  • “Sir.. we will handle him in your own way, I’m afraid you’ll break down if you worry too much, definitely I feel he isn’t just stalking you but something more” Rowan said to him
  • “Just drive to the hotel..” Aurelio replied and Rowan did as he was told.
  • The drive to the hotel was a silent one.. Aurelio could not stop thinking about all what Aryan said to him.
  • They already arrived at the hotel, and Just as Rowan had described it. It really is a fancy one.
  • Rowan walked to the receptionist to pay for the room while Aurelio stood where he was observing.
  • “ A VIP room” Rowan said to the receptionist.
  • Aurelio turned around and could see Erica standing with a tray in her hand.
  • And then another staff walked to her “ yeah I’m done and would he switching over to room service” she said and the other girl sighed lowly
  • “Erica you don’t have to stress yourself”
  • “What do you mean, I have to raise money to feed myself and besides I live alone at home..I really need the money to settle some personal stuffs” she said
  • “if only your parents could see how hardworking you are.. gosh I hate to think of them” the other girl said and Erica laughed
  • “I’ll be going now Sally” she said as as she walked away and Sally waved at her.
  • Aurelio didn’t take his eyes off her but watched her every move.
  • He chuckled lowly at her steps “walking like a model”
  • Rowan turned to see and was wondering who he was looking at the traced his sight and saw it was Erica.
  • He raised his brows immediately.
  • “okay it is ready sir, this is the card” the receptionist said to Rowan and he turned to her to receive the card.
  • “The 4th floor” she said to him as he left with it to Aurelio
  • “Sir, this is the card.. please have a good time, I’ll make sure I find out Aryan’s scheme” Rowan assured him
  • “Thank you.. have a goodnight too, hope you picked a good room too” he asked him and Rowan nodded his head
  • “Great, okay then” he replied and collected the card from Rowan as he made his way to the elevator.
  • And as soon as he got in, he sighed heavily..
  • “all I need now is rest! Drink! And sleep” he said to himself and pushed the button to the fourth floor.
  • About minutes later, he stepped out with his hands tucked into his pocket to his room and used the key card to access the room.
  • Immediately he opened the door and stood taking a good view at the room.
  • “Nice one” he shrugged.
  • The atmosphere was really cool, the room was kept neat and beautifully arranged. He walked in further and could see a large round bed with two wine pillows on it and a wine colored curtain behind the bed.
  • There was another red colored rug before the bed , a couch by the other side of the room.
  • The room was really spacious than he thought. He shrugged and walked in further to the telephone as he picked it up
  • “6th room in the 4th floor” he said immediately
  • “ what’s your request sir?”
  • “dinner..” he stupidly replied without checking his menu
  • “Please check the menu on the table there and select the meal of your choice”
  • He did immediately and after going through all he had his choice
  • “Louis XIII Pizza with Grand Velas Los Cabos Taco, add good wines and alcohol too. I’d be okay with tequila and Brandy please” he replied
  • “Noted! Anything else?”
  • “Not yet” he replied and ended the call.
  • Erica was down the floor and heard her name.
  • “Erica! Room service now”
  • She rushed over immediately to pickup what the client had asked for
  • “6th room 4th floor”
  • “Okay” she replied as she turned to leave never knowing that was gonna be a new start of her life.
