She sat next to them busy eating and she looked at what they were eating. She knew about street foods but she hadn't tried them yet. Maybe it's delicious because she sees the girls eating happily.

"Miss, do you want to try to eat this?" Shaira asked her.

"What are you, Shai? Miss Elodie is not used to eating that kind of food." Lucy said in a low voice so that the salesman could not hear he was just quiet but simply looking at them.

"But it's delicious."

"That's delicious but Miss Elodie isn't used to that if we just eat anything I'm sure she not, that might not digest at her," said Devora.

"I'm still full. I only want soft drinks. I'm thirsty." she said so they wouldn't make any more noise.

"Okay."

While she was drinking she thought of browsing her social media account. So she took her phone out of her sling bag and went to her Instagram. Her brow furrowed when she saw something not good in her eyes. Photo of her wearing business attire. Her anger rose in her chest for a brief moment. She is not a celebrity for her to put on social media. In all respects, she does not want her face or name even in the tabloids or in the news. And what made her angry was when she read the caption on the said photo. Is the sole heiress of the Carlton company single or not? Whoever came up with the plan to put her photo up wanted to tweak it. She doesn't want anyone to interfere in her private life, she will keep a low profile if necessary, but no matter how careful she is, some people will make a way for her. Devora's voice was what she heard. Suddenly her annoyance subsided.

"Are we going home, Miss?" they asked.

"What time is it?"

"Seven o'clock at night," Lucy answered.

"Not yet. We have somewhere to go now," she replied.

"All right."

"Have all of you finished eating?"

"Yes," they replied in chorus.

Elodie entered the car first. While the girls are still paying. She started the car when they all got inside. The second place they go to is a bar house. Elodie looks like she wants to drink tonight. They stopped at a newly built bar around the city.

"What are we going to do here, Miss?" asked Laica.

"We can do a lot in this place, Laica. Drink, dance, and find a man for a one-night stand," Elodie replied while smiling.

Devora's face crumpled as if she didn't like what he said.

"But if you want to go home without a man raping you, you can just drink and sit on one side," she said again and got out of the car first.

They all followed her. But they all collided when Lucy who was in front suddenly stopped. Elodie looked to see why but they were blocked by a bouncer whose body was too big to fit the entire door.

"What's wrong, sir?" Lucy asked in a calm tone.

"Minors are not allowed to enter inside only adults would." answered the bouncer.

Elodie suddenly laughed loudly causing the bouncer to turn his gaze to her.

"They're not minors anymore, sir. They just didn't grow up because they don't like to eat. They're only your age." she said not laughing anymore.

"Are you sure?" the bouncer asked again as if he was not convinced by what she was saying.

"Do we look like we're joking, sir?" interrupted Cheska who was in the back with raised eyebrows.

The bouncer didn't say a word but looked at them one by one.

"Go ahead and go inside."

The girls get inside first.

"Just once in a while, we are mistaken for minors. If I get the chance, I'll drink vitamins because it's too embarrassing." Tonette chuckled.

And they all laughed. When they were inside it was too loud because of the rock music along with the shouts of the people on the dance floor. They are not going to dance but also shout. While the girls danced in their seats. As if they lost sanity. Elodie laughed thinking that if she hadn't taken them to this place, she wouldn't have known that they like very crowded places with discos and drinks. They are not the type of women who just sit quietly on one side. Too talkative indeed. Maybe at first, she was too quiet because he was their boss but now they are like sisters so their shyness towards her has disappeared. The other customers even looked at them because of their noise.

"Just relax, girls. The attention of the other customers here has already turned to us," she said.

They kept quiet and stopped dancing. Mila stood up and waved both of her hands while her waist wobbled as she said,

"Yahoo, Let's go, girls. Let's dance."

They stood up and went to the dance floor. He was left alone as he shook his head looking at them all dancing and jumping to the beat of the music. He didn't know that these girls would be rude when they came to this place and it was too much to dance. Since he was alone, he thought of going to the counter and ordering drinks.

"One martini. Please," she says.

"Coming up, Ma'am."

Elodie knew that they didn't come here to drink but to dance. So she shook her head when she saw them dancing like crazy in the middle. The bartender had already given her wine so she accepted it and drank it but she hadn't finished it when she noticed something cold hit her neck causing her to panic. So she immediately turned around and saw a man clinging to her back who suddenly kissed her neck. Her anger grew for this. Add to that grinning like a maniac. Too bad he's still handsome but has no self-respect.

"Are you alone, Babe?" the man whispered to her.

"Is it obvious? You see I'm alone here and you're still asking?" she said in a sarcastic tone.

The man laughed and left behind her.

"That's the kind of attitude I like in women. Too combative." the man replied.

Elodie raised an eyebrow. So what does he want to happen?

"Why did you approach me? Do you need something? If you don't have anything, you can leave it in front of me. I didn't come here to hook up or something you're thinking about now." she said.

"Really?"

"Yes. You made a mistake with the girl you approached. I'm not one of those girls who immediately clings to you." she said bluntly.

He held her tightly causing her to be alarmed.

"Maybe you're old enough to understand what I want to make you feel, right? Or you're just playing numb."

The man let go of her and he was grinning at her.

"I know a girl like you. You don't like it at first but in the end, you like flirt men badly."

Elodie's nose smoked at what he said. What was this man thinking? She was playing hard to get?

"It's good that you know my personality right away. I didn't know that I was playing hard to get but in the end, I was forcing you. I don't need anyone to talk to right now here. Don't you notice that I was pushing you away? And besides, why are you forcing yourself on me, by the looks of you, you can fool any number of women here. If you said that I'm so lucky that of all women here I'm the one you approached but your wrong I'm not proud of it. Frankly, speaking it's better to talk to someone who had average looks than someone who looks like you so handsome but no respect at all." she said.

Elodie noticed that the man's eyes darkened because of what she said. But suddenly he smiled foolishly.

"I'm not going to like you either. That's why I'm curious about your appearance because you have your back turned and you're sexy on it, but knowing you now, you're not beautiful." the man said to her causing her nose to puff up in anger. And then she scolded the man on her mind too much that she was not beautiful to him. Then Elodie's eyes rolled secretly. This is the attitude of men mostly when rejected.

"Really? So why are you still here in front of me now? Go away." she pushed him away.

"We're not done yet, Miss. I'll get back at you and you'll pay for insulting me. When that happens, you'll be the one kneeling in front of me." the man said and walked away from her.

He saw him walking towards his colleagues in the corner who looks like goons. Elodie was trying to think about what she had said to that man that made him angry or if it would be more correct to say that he was insulted because of her refusal. Elodie gulped when she looked at the man's behavior and his companions gave him a bad look as if they were planning something bad.

Elodie stood up suddenly but her eyes were still on the group of men. They were still talking while she slowly walked toward the dance floor. And they all laughed like crazy and Elodie admitted that both of those men were drunk. She walked into the crowd of people dancing in the middle and was looking for Devora because her mind was panicking and they needed to get out of this place.

When the men could no longer see her, they suddenly stood up and left their table. Elodie started to get nervous because she knew they were looking for her. She approached Devora and whispered to her.

"Let's go home. I have a bad feeling about this place."

"Why, Miss?" they asked.

"No more asking questions. Let's go," she said to them and walked out first.

"Hurry up, all of you get in the car."
