Chapter 4
I immediately ran away from him and entered the conference room where the other women preparing and fixing themselves for the game.
"I know it's him!" I said to myself.
He can't see me yet because it will ruin my plan. No matter how long it's been, I still know his voice very well.
Dario immediately approached me and noticed that I was panicking.
"You're here," he said with a smile.
"Are you okay, Mon?" he asked.
"Conrad almost saw me earlier. I bumped into him and I know it's him. I know his voice," I answered.
"Are you sure he didn't recognize you?" he asked worriedly.
"No but I need to change my dress to be sure," I answered.
When we left the backstage, I immediately looked in the direction where Conrad was sitting. I almost held my breath staring at him at that time. This was the first I saw him face to face. He has changed and he is even more Handsome and masculine in my eyes. But he can’t erase the fact that he broke my heart and I will never forgive him.
“ They're right. You've changed a lot, Conrad.” I told myself.
I remind myself of the hurtful things he did to me. And I had no other reason for entering his life again than to take revenge. I also promised Daddy that I would give justice to the death of his wife and that I could not fail.
“What will be your reaction when you see me again?” I told myself again.
“You'll see the woman you left behind again and I will make sure to make you feel the pain you made me feel before,” I said with hatred.
“Three Million for number 3!” the other man bet.
I was nervous because a man might win and Conrad didn't bet a bigger amount on me. But I need to stay calm at this point.
“Looks like the battle is hot to get Ms. Number 3, the governor's daughter! Are you sure that he is the one you will choose?” the host announced.
“Yes, I am one hundred percent sure!”
I was surprised by what Conrad said and I was disgusted with myself when I felt a little thrill in my heart. This is exactly why I want Conrad to choose me in this game to take revenge.
“ Ten million,” he said.
“ Twenty Million,” the other man said.
“What, Alpha? Can you still bet for the governor's daughter?” the host asked him.
“I don't know either but there is something about her that is intriguing. Fifty million!” he said, bravely.
I was surprised at what he said because it was a very huge amount without an assurance.
“Okay, you win!” the other man accepts his loss.
Conrad smiled and immediately stood up to approach me and he immediately offered his hand.
“Can I get my reward now?” he asked, smiling.
“Take it easy, Alpha,” Dario answered.
“Are you sure?” Dario asked him.
“Yes, of course,” he assured.
“Before anything else, I want you to sign this agreement,” Dario told him to avoid refusal when Conrad found out that it was me.
“Agreement?” Conrad asked as his forehead frowned.
“To make sure you won't back down. I want to secure the fifty million first,” Dario answered.
“If you break the rules, you will lose everything you have. I’m sure you will not let that happen,” I said, softly.
Conrad just smiled and shook his head at the agreement. He looks so very confident and boastful at those times. I just shook my head while thinking what would be his reaction.
“I swear I will never break the rules," Conrad assured.
“Okay. Sign it now before you can get your reward," Dario responded.
I know if he retreated it would be a great shame for him. He didn't want to beat the other rich guys in that club. That’s all I know from Dario but he just to secure the money first no matter what happens.
He signed the documents and they shook hands. He turned his gaze to me.
“Mon, you can remove your mask now,” Dario told me.
I slowly removed my mask in front of many. Everyone was very surprised to see my beauty and I can’t deny the fact that I’m gorgeous.
Conrad's eyes widened when he saw me and I saw him frown his head as he looked at me.
“Monica?!” he raised his voice as he frowned his head.
“Hi, it’s Moon, the governor's daughter,” I introduced myself to him.
“No, you played me!” he raised his voice.
Everyone was surprised by Conrad's reaction and I just smiled at him and teased him.
“Is there a problem, Conrad?” I asked him.
“What are you doing here? Why did you come back here?” he asked, emphatically.
“What are you talking about?” I asked him, smiling.
“You know you shouldn't embarrass yourself in front of the crowd. Look they are all looking at you,” I added.
Conrad looked at the people around them and tried to calm himself down. I know he doesn’t want to ruin his reputation and he has his pride.
“After all you still have the guts to show me?” he asked, angrily.
“Why? Still not moving on until now?” I teased him.
I just smiled at her seductively and Conrad took a deep breath as he looked at me.
“Me? Not moved on? Fuck, don't assume something unless I said,” he denied.
“Then we won't have any problem then,” I responded.
“I'm just following my father's orders,” I insisted.
“What the heck. Your father ordered you to sell yourself to any man?! he insulted me.
“You still haven't changed, Conrad,” I smirked.
“I will replace you!” he said firmly.
“Are you sure about that? I thought you were the Alpha of every woman in Apollo City. How can you reject the Governor’s daughter?” I smiled, seductively.
“Look, someone is willing to take your place, so it's up to you. I have no problem if you choose them.
Monica pointed out the women were not beautiful when they removed their masks.
“Do you want them to laugh at you? How about the fifty million?” I reminded him.
“Fuck!” he cursed.
“I'm easy to talk to. Dario!” I called.
“Wait!” he stopped me.
“Yes, what now?” I asked him.
“I am claiming my reward now. You win!” he said emphatically.
I smiled seductively at him and he was very surprised at what I did. Everyone applauded while looking at us. My revenge has begun.
