Chapter 27 - How About Me?

Meanwhile...

Bam!

Mira slammed her hands on the table. Anger filled every nook of her body. Everything in the room was in a mess after she trashed them, releasing her anger.

"Urgh, I hate her!" She kicked on the chair. It fell with a hard bang on the floor.

She was dead angry at Jennet because she had totally won Luca's attention over. She found out he even asked her out and that slut was acting all hard-to-get by declining his request!

She had warned her several times to stay away from Luca but it seemed Jennet didn't heed her warning. In fact, she had the nerve to tell him to wait for her. It was like she had been trying to make him her lackey!

"I have enough of being the nice guy. Guess I will have to take it the hard way since you never try to stay away from what is rightfully mine!" Mira smirked. She will have her way with that witch. She will crush her with what she had even if she had to use the dirtiest way ever.

She should have done that years ago ever since Jennet appeared in the company and stole the limelight from her. Though she's still the well-known one in the company that isn't what she wanted. She had always wanted Luca's attention. The attention that the witch got from him was what she had always craved for.

It took her lots of time to plan on a way to get rid of all those women beside him before and when he was finally available to be unavailable, she appeared and took it all away!

"Argh!" She grunted angrily.

Ring! Ring!

Mira glanced at the table. Her phone kept ringing earlier. Her heart burned again looking at the name appearing on the screen, Danny Stanford, her current boyfriend.

She hastily grabbed the phone before pressing it to her ear, "What is it Danny?!" She roared. Her patience was so thin and it exploded like an active volcano.

"Whoa, sweetie, shimmer down, honey." Said the voice at the end of the line. His voice was cheerful but it can't even tone down Mira's anger.

"What is it that you want?" She asked once again, getting even furious by the minute.

"Well, wanna go for some drinks? My treat. I wanna help you sleep well tonight as well." Said Danny again.

Mira grunted on the phone. "I am not in my best temper right now so I will not join you."

"Well, honey. You sounded so angry. Must be because of her again, right? Why not chill out and let loose all of what you wanted to let go. With a clear mind, you can think of anything nasty that you wanted to do on her."

Mira went silent for a while. Well, he might be right. Her mind was not in order at the moment and staying alone in this messy apartment will make her feel even worse.

"Well, tell me your location then. I seriously need to clear my head off this matter somehow." She said at last.

"Cool, I'll be at the usual place. Meet you there plus, I have been craving for you." He chuckled at the end of the line.

"Hmm..." Mira ended the call. She grabbed her handbag and left the apartment after giving instructions to the housekeeper to clean her messy room.

She arrived at a bar after hailing for a taxi to drop her there. Danny Stanford had been waiting for her with a wide smile as soon as she appeared at the door.

"Honey, you're here." He smiled and took her hand and escorted her to sit beside him. He glanced at the sour face beside him and said again, "Well, enough with the sour face. Strong liquor as always?"

Mira glared at him but didn't say any further. She just nodded her head. After a few minutes, their orders arrived and she immediately took one and gulped it down her throat. The burning sensation travelled through her body.

She took another glass and did the same and as she was about to go for the third one, Danny stopped her by grabbing her wrist.

"Slow down honey. You will get drunk easily." He said and took the glass away from her hand. He drank it down instead.

Mira clicked her tongue and poured herself another glass. She gulped it down and slammed the glass back on the table.

She exhaled a deep breath after a long pause. "I need to crush her!" She said.

Danny looked at her and asked, "Who?" His expression showed he didn't know who she meant.

Mira glared at him. "Don't play dumb with me before I kick your balls!" She looked away.

She poured another glass of whiskey for herself. This time, she sipped it slowly. Her mind was working hard, turning its wheel on how to execute her plans.

Danny chuckled beside her. He took the liquor bottle from her hand and poured for himself.

He looked at her and said, "Looking at you now made me wonder who is this Jennet Lockhart that have always made you moody. She must be a wild one, " then, he drank it.

Mira snorted and gave him a mocking laugh. "She's a b***ch! She used her so-called innocent look just to gain attention from the higher-ups. Loveless Woman that's what she was called."

"Loveless Woman? How come she had that name?" Danny asked getting more interested.

"Well, she doesn't date anyone in the company. Before she moved out of the apartment, she had always gone out at night. She was probably loitering around, looking for rich men to sleep with to get their money. Then, she afforded a car after a year working in our company."

"Well, that's amazing. She's hardworking."

"Tsk, her salary is not enough to buy a car in just a year. Mine is triple her salary." She said, looking proud of herself.

Shortly after that, she continued, "Then after that, she moved into a villa up the hill, outside the city. She may have been a mistress for someone. Some claimed she's the hidden mistress of Luca Tybelg. It really infuriated me!" She grunted angrily.

Danny smiled, "Well, she seemed to be so interesting. I have never seen you so angry with anyone before. I wonder if I can meet this Jennet Lockhart with my own two eyes."

"Well, she's an eyesore!" Mira slammed her glass on the table.

"An eyesore to you but a pleasure for me."

Mira raised an eyebrow at him, "What do you mean?" She asked.

"I have been looking for someone like her, innocent on the outside but evil from the inside. She must be so good in bed." Danny licked his lips which made Mira shot him another glare.

"Eww, you s** maniac! You're so tasteless if you slept with her." She said and clicked her tongue again.

Danny smiled widely at her, "Well, you know how my taste is. I don't even care. In fact, I would like to know how she tastes. I haven't slept with anyone since last month. It's good that you talked about her today."

Mira poured herself with another shot of liquor and gulped it down. Her head was getting to get a bit dizzy. It must have been because she gulped it down so ferociously before.

She shook her head, trying to lessen her dizziness. "Well, suit yourself then." She said and cupped her warm cheeks in her palms.

"I don't want to see her around Luca." She added and inhaled a deep breath. "Luca is mine."

"Then, what about me?" Danny asked and leaned closer to her with a wide smile over his handsome face.

Mira pushed his face away harshly and said, "You're my pet."

"Aww, that hurts!" Danny yelped playfully beside her. "This pet is hurt so much." He added by grabbing his chest and acted pitifully.

"That's the truth." Said Mira again and poured another glass of liquor for herself. But as soon as she was about to drink it, Danny took it from her and emptied the content into his mouth.
