Women Night Out
[ Chapter 24 ]
It's a sleepless Friday night on the outskirts of Imperial. The moon has long shone upon the dark horizon but the bustling city of Imperial seemed becoming more lively and radiant as the glows of skyscrapers illuminated the city in the grandeur glows.
Imperial was famously known as 'The Aurora of the East' with the most beautiful night view in Asia and one of the world's top three night views. Countless skyscrapers were dotted along Imperial's skyline, when all of them were all lit up with LED strip lights it truly was a remarkable view which many people say looks like an aurora.
Imperial was also one of the world's safest cities, making it a real nighttime stroller's delight. There's nothing quite as romantic as wandering through the city streets at night, seeing all of Imperial lit up.
The beautiful city seemed lost in the liveliness of its citizens and so did the highest part and rooftop of the High Medallion, one of the Imperial's best high end Bar and Restaurants as all of the elite patrons could be found enjoying themselves in the nightly delight.
On the outside of High Medallion, a luxurious and limited edition black Bentley could be seen rounded around the restaurant and halted at the entrance, soon after the passenger door opened, a tall elegant vision was seen getting out the black sedan with such an elegance that everyone around turned their head just to take the pleasure of seeing such a goddess creation of feminine perfection.
The Bentley drove away and the attractive lady began to walk into the restaurant. Even from afar, the people around could see the lady's extreme attractiveness as their breathing escaped a few breaths looking at her gorgeous silhouette that looked classily perfect from all over the angles.
The lady's eyes wandered around to see the place that screamed class and luxury dining experience as she went deeper into the restaurant area. Completely different from the full swing of liveliness of the highest floor, the bar area of High Medallion, the restaurant area offered the comfortable and classic atmosphere as the place was arranged and designed only to serve the elite patrons of upper-class society.
After a couple minutes of walking the lady arrived at the private part of the restaurant to which only VIP patrons could afford to enter and was immediately greeted by a young male attendant.
"Welcome Ms. How may I help you?"
The young attendant couldn't help but blush when he received a faint elegant smile from the gorgeous lady. He took a quick glance at her figure, he dared no more than taking a respectful glance as he's naturally intimidated by the lady's dignified presence and strong charisma.
The gorgeous lady before him stood tall, more than six feet with her three-inch black heels. She's a vision in black shirt and dark brown limited edition blazer with matching olive professional jeans. Her proper yet stylishly graceful business attire couldn't hinder her inborn sexy charm from shining through as it slightly accentuated her sinuous supermodel figure.
The lady told the attendant her name and her reserved table before he turned around began to lead her towards the designated VIP table. Throughout the small exchange, the lady was indifferent looking at the young man's nervousness, as she's used to experiencing most men stammer when they faced her, it's either because of her extreme allure or her regal bearing.
The lady thanked the attendant once she found the reserved table, she waltzed her way womanly and she could see a woman waving her hand at her from the corner of the hall.
"You're pretty late." One of three mature ladies that were seated at the table, Jessica Wen, greeted her as she put down her waving hand.
Another one added, "What can you expect from such a workaholic." Celine Xin remarked the fact that their newly arrived best friend was still in her business attire. It's their kind of women night out which most of time will be taken place once in two week, all of them were dressed in casual gown yet here the lady was, dressing like she's about to attend some business meeting.
"Sorry." The lady, Cassandra Qin, curtsied and curved her lips into an apologizing smile as she put down her purse and removed her blazer. She took a seat next to Miranda Su and reasoned, "Can't help it, I've been too busy lately."
"Seriously, we know so no need to tell me." Jessica snorted lightly. "We're not so busy housewives while you're such a busiest businesswoman."
"Well, naturally everyone is busier than you, you're such a lazy housewife." Cassandra fired back with a beautiful laugh to which earned her Jessica's displeased look.
"Anyway, it's not like that really." Cassandra explained, "You know it that I'm planning on having a next branch in Greece, so everything has been pretty hectic lately. Moreover, the business conference is around the corner so I have to make sure everything well."
"Yes, yes." Jessica showed no interest in business related things but deep inside she's sincerely happy for Cassandra's success achievement. From their younger days, Cassandra had always been the smartest and most accomplished one.
"Cass, I'm really happy for you. Congrats in advance for your third branch." Miranda gently patted Cassandra's shoulder. Miranda and Celine showed their genuine smile.
Their relationship truly reached where they could genuinely share both their sadness and happiness together. Sure no relationship was perfect as they had their own flaws and break up phase but fortunately their relationship managed to withstand the testament of time to reach the closeness they have now. They have been knowing each other from young and as they mature they realised how dearly important to have each other as besties. Such a lifelong sisterhood was a treasure they cherished.
"Thank you." Cassandra curved up her lips. Her heart warmed, only around them could she become a woman she really was as they know her so well.
"How about you take us to Greece once everything is settled, you know it's been an age since our last girls trip." Celine mused as she eyed Cassandra in a suggestive look.
Cassandra pondered for a moment before answering, "Well, that can be arranged." She didn't rule out the possibility but she couldn't tell the date since her schedule had been booked until the end of this year. Her eyes scanned around and asked, "Where's Mia?"
Miranda answered, "She couldn't come as she said that she had to nurse her son's sudden fever."
Cassandra felt bad for Mia as she could perfectly relate her, as a fellow loving mother, her own daughter comes before everything else.
All of them continued engaging in joyful and heartfelt womanly chatting as they enjoyed the luxurious and classy atmosphere. Worth of its prestige, their table was situated in the corner of VIP hall close to the spacious widows, providing them so much privacy and the best view of the beautiful night. The classic golden chandeliers provided them a dim of light and the melodious melody was playing softly in the background.
The female waiter came in soon after Celine called for order. All of them ordered their beverages and meals. Cassandra ordered the most expensive margarita, a grilled chicken caesar salad, maple glazed salmon and low fat peach frozen yogurt as dessert.
After the waiter had walked away Jessica rattled at Cassandra, "Why do you always eat so healthy?"
"That's also quite an appetite for such a slim figure." Jessica added as her jealous eyes sized up Cassandra's well proportional figure that's worthy of million enviousness. Jessica has always been jealous over Cassandra's curvaceous body just like any woman does. She herself had a maintained body but she couldn't hold a candle to Cassandra's feminine curvature.
Cassandra just gave out an impish smile in response as she took so much pride at herself. She has always been living a disciplined and healthy lifestyle as it's fairly reflected on her well maintained sinuous figure and her youthful appearance. Despite the hectic and busy schedule, Cassandra was able to have quality sleep and spend some time to work out.
For Cassandra personally, being physically fit and healthy have a lot of benefits as it also to maintain her state of fresh mind free of stress and anxiety, reducing her health risk and most importantly, she desires to be healthy enough to accompany her daughter through her motherhood and witness the grow of her future grandbabies.
Shortly after their order worthy of the High Medallion satisfying serving claim, two female waiters approached them with expensive bottles of red wine, martini and margarita.
The waiter served the glasses tastefully in front of them while the other classily opened the bottles of the fragrance liquor. Each of the waiters poured the liquor into their glasses. Margarita for Cassandra and red wine for Miranda while martini for both Jessica and Celine.
Finished on serving the drink, the waiters took their leave, the drink was served first as it would take some time for the beverages. The mature ladies then took a sip of their liquor as they let their drink flow down their system relaxing their nerves.
"Well Cass, you can't run away from us anymore." Celine and Jessica turned into gossiping aunties all of a sudden, their eyes gleaming in excitement. "We're thirsty for your juicy story."
Cassandra shut her eyes to hide her eyes from being read by their scrutinizing gaze. It's been two weeks already why they couldn't leave her alone, they could become such annoying busybody sometimes. Cassandra kept sipping her fine liquor like she heard nothing.
"Cih, so stingy." Jessica clicked her tongue. "Come on tell us already." Celine urged as she cornered Cassandra with her vehement gaze.
Cassandra opened her eyes and raised her head, looking annoyed. She knitted her perfectly-structured brows at them. "You're so annoying really. Do we have to talk about it?"
Miranda sighed with a helpless smile as she could do nothing to help Cassandra. Jessica and Celine noticed that Cassandra doesn't want to talk about it but they need to know about it. Aside from pure curiosity, they need to know how far it's for Cassandra's own good.
Cassandra shot them a fierce glance before finally giving in, she knew they would stop at nothing. "I don't know what you mean." Cassandra responded attempting to try her last try.
"Come on, we're talking about your little lover," Celine teased.
Cassandra hissed, "He means nothing to me. Moreover, it's been a long time ago for Goddess sake." She's frustrated.
"How was he? Was he good?" Jessica probed, ignoring Cassandra's discomfort.
"Nothing happened," Cassandra lied without batting an eye.
"Really?" Jessica smiled smugly as she put a 'I'm not buying that crap' expression. "So what did you do really, cuddling with him? Well, that's cute though," Jessica stifled a laugh.
"We saw how passionate you were and the way you pulled him up your room was quite aggressive," Celine remarked.
"Will you two stop doing that?" Cassandra seethed, she sighed in a depressed mood before relenting. "Okay, something happened."
The widening smile on their beautiful countenances were annoying. "What kind of something?" Jessica provoked.
Cassandra breaking in, "We fucked."
"WOW, such a language from a lady." Celine teased as she huffed a laugh, it's a treasure really, to see her always elegant and graceful bestie uttering such a word.
Cassandra snorted distastefully, "That's all you need to know. That's one time thing and nothing more."
"That's what we already knew." Jessica exaggeratedly chimed because of excitement. She had long turned on her pervert mode, just thinking about that aching young hottie was enough to make her hot. She leaned in to the table, her eyes sparkling as she pressed some more, "So how was it? Was he huge?"
Cassandra gasped, digging her nails on her own skin, amazed at how Jessica could become a pervert to such an extent. "I couldn't believe we have this conversation."
Jessica continued without any shred of shame. "Uh-huh. So. How big? Tell me when to stop."
Jessica raised both hands and pointed up her index fingers aligning into a horizontal line. She stretched the line from one to three 3-inch, she then pulled the line wide into 5-inch, still no response, Jessica's eyes were sparkling as she pulled the line into 7-inch. Still no response from Cassandra.
Jessica gasped, "Oh—holy mother!" She aligned her fingers into a long line, she screamed, "9-INCH?!"
Cassandra cast a distasteful look at Jessica. For some reason, Miranda and Celine flushed and embarrassed for Jessica as the latter showed no shame talking about such an unseemly thing. Out of all of them, Jessica had been a wild and free spirit in her younger days.
Cassandra threw her head back and getting breathless. She crossed her legs and chastised herself, for some reason she's getting a little bit hot. She didn't want to talk about him anymore.
Jessica knew Cassandra well as she could read the real answer based on the Cassandra's slightly flushed face. "DAMN YOU CASS! I'm so jealous!" Her eyes went wide. She fluttered her hands around her face, fanning herself. "He is so freaking HOT and PERFECT."
"There's nothing to be jealous about." Cassandra cut off suddenly. "You know it yourself."
Out of the blue at that exact moment, Cassandra showed a changing expression and so did the other three, as their relaxed countenances were nowhere to be seen.
"He's Florencia's son."
