Debt

Back at the Reigns mansion, Chloe who was still standing after apologizing to Liam for endangering his brother's life rubbed her foot against the other . it's been thirty minutes after she tendered her apologies but Liam is yet to give her a reply and her legs are beginning to ache her badly. After much contemplating she decided to apologize further, maybe her earlier apologies weren't accepted.

" Mr Liam , I'm deeply sorry for endangering your brothers life , I will be more careful in the future"

Chloe said and bowed her head to show how sorry she was.

" There won't be—" Liam trailed off when her phone rang .

Grin ! Grin!! Grin !!!

Chloe fished out her phone from her pocket and answered the call.

" Hello "

" Hello, am I speaking with Chloe Adams ?"

" Yes '

" There's a man at our bar with the name Stanley Adams he is owning us $ 470,000 he told us to call you to clear up his debt "

" 470,000 what ? " Where do I get the money from, as a matter of fact I don't have it" she replied honestly

" You have till 8 hours to bring the money or we will chop off your father's hands"

" Please don't— " but the call ended in her ears , she clenched her fist and gritted her teeth. How selfish and greedy , how on earth do I have such a man as my father ! She thought and forced back the tears that were threatening to fall any minute from now. 'Chloe brace yourself now is not the time to act pitiful ' she chided herself.

" If you will excuse me Mr Liam I have an emergency that needs my urgent attention " she bowed again and strolled out of the house.

.

.

. After he heard her retreating footsteps he turned to watch her leave. " Come in here Blaze " he called out to the shadow hiding behind the pillars, and he walked in.

" How did you know I was standing there " he asked Liam who gave him the look of ' what do you take me for '.

" How can I forget, Liam Reigns master of the Mafia world "

Liam eyed him , and concentrated on the issue at hand : ``how dare they bully his wife ", no one else is allowed to bully her except him . It seems like he has to remind them that she's now a Reigns not Adams .

*********

Chloe after leaving the Reigns mansion phoned her friend Daisy to meet her at a nearby cafe where they normally gather as bff .

" Are you gonna live this way Chloe ? " Daisy asked and sipped her cappuccino

" Yeah , Daisy, what can I do ?" Chloe sighed and smiled bitterly

" Alright, I will support you,but promise you won't hide anything from me, maybe there's nothing I can do to help but we can still share our feelings together"

" Okay" Chloe said, Daisy reached out and squeezed her hands reassuring her.

" I happen to need your help"

" With what"

"Do you know any fast way to make money, I need lots of it and it's urgent"

" Uhmm, my brother's friend Harry, who works at the imperial club once told me they were in urgent need of waitress "

" Really ! "

" Yes, and there pay is around $250,00 per night and if you're lucky to be picked to serve at the vvip section of the bar I hear their pay is much more bigger "

" That's huge!" Chloe screamed excitedly, her eyeballs shone with dollars as if she's already working and earning it.

" Give me a minute let me call him " Daisy said and stood up to make the car outside the cafe

" Yeah, sure , take two " Chloe replied

After a few minutes Daisy walked in bearing good news, excited to help her friend.

" Guess what Chloe!"

" What ?, You am not good at guessing .Tell me already" she chided her friend.

" Harry said you can start working tonight, and it happens that some big shots of the club are coming tonight, maybe you will be picked to serve them " Daisy anounced excitedly

" Cheers to that" Chloe said and they clicked their cups together.

" I'm m so sorry about your car" she said and bent her head

" Don't worry about the car the insurance agency will take care of it " Daisy reassured her

Chloe who was expecting Daisy to scold her was surprised at how selfless her friend was, once again tears filled her eyes she thanked God for gifting a friend such as Daisy

" Thank you for being there when everyone abandons me "

" Aww , come here " Daisy pulled her in for a hug , after staying for some more minutes they footed their bills and left the cafe .
