Troublesome Little Girl!!!

Though the little girl is not wearing any fancy clothes and somewhat out of fashion, she has unique aura that caught his attention. Her face was already pleasant to look at without the help of cosmetics which is not common sight for him. Usually, women he knows will always dress nicely, even sexy and put up make-up to improve more their looks and attracts more attention.

This quietly looking woman who never made eye contact to anyone seems like a lost soul who doesn't want to be noticed at all. He looked away seeing the woman waking up but his attention still with her.

Sab hands become numb, she straighten-up and formed a fist few times, she smiled internally. Because her work normally requires physical strength and stamina, she always felt exhausted and sleeps anywhere if possible or if there's a chance, mall stairways, restaurants, convenience store even at the bar with the loud lively music is no match on her desire to rest. She can practically sleep anywhere.

Outside the convenience store, a group of men, 9 or 10 walking very arrogantly, all of them looks intimidating so people passing by gets scared and try to avoid troubles, so they'll usually turn around immediately or go in other directions. The group of men seemed happy with it. Though she can't hear what they are saying, seeing them exchanging glancing and laughing on top of their lungs, the reason is obvious.

She subconsciously hid her face on top of the table. Her almond eyes opened widely, and her heart suddenly beats abnormally. "What if they are the gang whom I was sold to? What should I do?"

"I should hide.. hide.. yeah I need to hide.." she look outside again without raising her head, seeing the group of men walking to the convenience store direction, she immediately panic. She looks around and confirmed that there's only 1 door she can use for the entrance and exit.

She panicked thinking any moment the gangster may enter the store. She immediately stood-up and sat beside the man sitting across the table hoping that he's not a big coward mama who will leave her behind with the gangsters around. She hides her face again on top of the table and used her shoulder length hair to cover the other half of her face.

She did not say anything but one of her hands is holding tightly at the hemline of man's loose hooded grey jacket. In few seconds, she heard group of men laughter and heavy footsteps. Her heart beats faster than ever to the point that even breathing become difficult. She shut her eyes tightly. She doesn't want to face the group of men and/or hear their voices. She must act calm, she can't be caught.

The group of men just entered look around then went straight to the man quietly sitting beside a woman who soundly sleeping. They look at each other but did not say anything.

"Good evening, Boss!" greeted by the group of men in loud voice at the same time.

Henry suddenly greenish a cold and dark aura then look at the group of men standing in front of him.

Their lips are all tightened. They were happy because the mission was given to them was successful but seeing their boss reaction, they don't understand why he was suddenly become angry, but no one dared to ask. They just froze there and waited for instructions.

Henry felt uncomfortable seeing little girl look like a scared kitten asking for protection. He signals the group of men to leave. One by one, the men left the store without saying anything.

He even angrily sent the leader of the group a message to hide when he sees them waiting for him near the store.

Hearing the door opened and leaving footsteps, Sab raise slightly her head to make sure the men are no longer in sight. She even peeks outside. Upon making sure that the gang already left, she loosen-up her gripped without looking at the man beside her and quickly pick-up the untouched food.

"Sorry for disturbing and thanks," she said before leaving the store in a hurry. Afraid that the gang might come back. She did not clearly see the man's face, but she was thankful at him for not being a big mama boy.

The group of men greeted someone inside the store and even called "boss". Though, she was curious, she has no interest to know more about it. All she wants is to leave the place and lie low for a while. It seems, she's not safe to go out yet.

Tom who's waiting outside saw a bunch of men going inside the convenience store. He was familiar with the bodyguard just entered. They are the loyal bodyguards of Henry Montero, his potential biggest rival in business.

He met him few times in a party. They nod with each other as greetings, that's all. Henry's family has big business influence in Country A and X and his family has same impact in Country S and C.

Why are they here? His curiosity risen. This neighbourhood is not elite and considered shabby. They wouldn't be roaming around the area for nothing.

Tom lips slightly curved upward seeing the little girl sleeping beside Henry. Though they don't look intimate, Henry just let her sit beside him.

From his investigation, he's not someone you can get close on even if you have money or part of the socialite. And those bodyguards exited not just hired to protect him from danger but also there to resolve girl's problem especially the one who'll try to get close to him without permission.

Henry live much openly in media that's why he brings bodyguard almost everywhere. You'll only see him drives or rides a sports car and only lives in an exclusive subdivision and condominium where not everyone can buy even if you have money.

Compared to him, he has much privilege and freedom. His parents tried to hide them from media and stayed low profile for so long. But as their business grew, the media and business pressure become intense especially when he started to build his own name, he has no choice but to show-up from time to time and when he does, he'll change his hair colour and hair style right after the shoot or interview so people don't usually recognized it was him.

His aura darkened seeing the two-sitting side by side. He supposed to go in, but the bodyguards left the store one by one. In a while, the little girl also woken-up and rashly ran outside the store. She even passed by his side without looking at him.
