Chapter eight.

After the dancing challenge part had come to an end, it was now time for everybody in the club to enjoy themselves. People around were now dancing with their partners while Anna had nobody to dance with.

When she had gotten down from the dance floor, almost every man in the club wanted to dance with her but Anna wasn't that type of vaguely dancing around with random guys. Though she had urged herself to have a one night stand with any enticing guy she sees in here, she didn't mean all these guys swarming around her. All thanks to herself for irresponsibly attracting all this unnecessary attention she was plentifully getting now.

The way the men had behaved that they hadn't pounced on her yet when they had been lustfully staring at her puzzled her ' That's why partying with your brother and brother-in-law is the best, they become your bodyguards.' she thought as she shrugged.

Anna was currently sitting on a bar counter taking multiple shots in one go, she wanted to totally get wasted and forget about her problems but she wasn't.

" Urrrgg!" She groaned, " I hate my boring life!" She yelled at the top of her lungs but luckily, the speakers were blaring and everybody was now minding about their enjoyments to hear her stupid grunts. She grabbed a whole whisky bottle and started drinking from it directly; after all, she had gotten a lot of money on the dance floor to pay for all the bills.

Anna got up from the bar chair and and started lookin for a prominent partner, to be precise, for a one night stand potential candidate to accomplish her mission.

As if on cue, a handsome guy made his way to her in an instance. " Hmm! You're a hottie" Anna said as she scrutinized him up and down. The guy said something but Anna was too intoxicated to hear it. As any other couple around, they started rhythmically dancing together; their bodies zero inch apart.

Unknown to Anna, the guy was a robber. While other men were wishing just dance with her or perhaps have a taste of her, he wanted to take her money she had gotten earlier.

"Eww! This feels so good." Anna said out loud. The more contact hers and the man's body were making, the more horny she was getting! She knew she would regret this big time but she wanted to live the moment.

Anna was still dancing merrily not bothered with what tomorrow brings when someone grabbed the guy from behind. Anna narrowed her eyes in suspicion when she saw who it was. ' What the hell is she...' Before she could even finish the sentence in her head, a blow had already landed on the guy's jaw. The guy winced in pain and Anna tried to protest but Lexie beat her to it.

" Where is the money?" Lexie asked in rage, " I want the money now."

The guy shrugged her hands off of him but the grip was so firm and manly. " Or what?" He asked with a mischievous smile.

" Or this" Lexie said and double punched him in the face then kicked him in the stomach. Anna's eyes and mouth was now as wide as a saucer.

Before Anna could process everything in her mind, the guy's companions about six or five in number had gathered around.

" Let go of him right this instance before I book a flight for you" One of the guys who seemed to be their leader said in a commanding tone. " You're not in US where they don't hit women, this is Africa, I can even kill you and nobody does nothing to me"

" Try her." A deep voice said behind Lexie, it was a guy wearing all black from head to toe accompanied by another guy wearing the same uniform-like- clothes like his. Anna narrowed her eyes at the guy, ' This the same guy I always see with Liam....'

" It seems like it's me who gonna book him a flight to hell" Lexie said in her American accent that the robbers partly understood. "And nobody will do anything to me" She was meaning 'Anna's would be one night stand' she was still gripping, she pushed him to the second black dressed guy who hasn't said anything yet. Anna was now like dreaming or watching an action packed movie.

Even before Lexie could ask for another time, the robbers leader had handed whatever Lexie was asking for, not after seeing those robust scary looking men having pistols.

Anna's eyes widened at the site of her wallet full of money, she quickly checked her panty pockets to make sure it's hers; to her surprise, they were empty. Anna glanced at the guy she was planning to give herself to. Fear, shock and disgust chocked her. '

When Lexie got what she wanted, her body guard let go of the guy and the robbery group left as fast as they could. Lexie looked at a frightened girl besides her and chuckled.

Anna was looking around in hopes of spotting Liam but couldn't, ' If his wife and bodyguards are here, it means that he could be in here as well...'

" Are you looking for somebody, my lady?" Lexie asked, ' Foolish girl, you're looking for him when am the one who saved your ass ' Lexie complained internally but gave her back her items anyway.

"Huh? I-I-uh" Anna fidgeted, "Yes, I was looking for my brother"

'Liar' Lexie internally shook her head at this naked lie. " You can go find him and go home"

"Thank you so much, miss" Anna said, Lexie just nodded and left with her companions. Anna went in the restrooms still terrified, she had already sobered up. She washed her hot sweaty face and stared herself in the mirror for minutes, her nerves chaotic. Good enough, the scene hadn't caused any commotion, even her crew hadn't known what had happened.

She looked at her wallet, ' What would I've done if that foolish motherfucker had taken my important IDs in here? Good enough I had left my cell phones at home.' She thought. ' However much I don't like you; Lexie, for marrying my crush, you saved my....'

Anna left with her crew after telling them what had happened leaving the one night stand mission part. They dropped her at her residence and everyone left for their homes as well as they all had to work the following day. Anna slept immediately due to her exhausted bones.

The next day, she was woken by the endless calls from Mr. Balaji. When she finally received the call, Mr Balaji told her as he hadn't fired her and perhaps miss and mister Salvatore had ordered him to promote her; from waitress to supervisor.

Anna went to work and her colleagues weren't less happy to see her back. She wanted to thank Lexie for her generous manner but she hadn't shown up at the café again. Even Liam himself nor his bodyguard; Max had shown up at all.

Besides the above, Anna was so happy with her new job spot. She didn't have to work so hard or meet nasty customers, all she had to do was to supervise how work is done, what's missing in the kitchen, report any blockage in café's system.

She is now second to Mr Balaji, meaning that even her payment had been upgraded.

Her colleagues told her how everything had gone when she had left the café. That the two black dressed men took the guy for causing chaos.
