Chapter 154: His Possession
"How’s your work?" a familiar scent assaulted Thea’s nostrils as the room’s door closed.
It was Leon’s tobacco scent stuck all over his body. Oh, how she hated that smell; for years already.
"Remember? You must behave, otherwise, I’ll throw you back to another country. By the way, your childhood sweetheart has finally moved on. I see that he has a new girl..." he spoke nonchalantly.
Thea heard him chuckle, as he added, "That man, indeed, we both have the same taste when it comes to women. But that pretty woman he has right now is someone hard for me to get. Ah, too bad, she’s so beautiful and alluring."
Thea could see the evil grin plastered on Leon’s face in the mirror.
All these years, she wanted to kill the devil, but she couldn’t do that. She was afraid to kill someone, but even more, she was afraid to die.
"Why don’t you get her instead and let me go?" asked Thea, intentionally giving Leon the idea, as she removed her make-up and looked at her reflection from the vanity mirror. Though she was older than Keira Chan, she remained young-looking.
She was Leon’s woman. She became one, out of her will.
Thea looked at the vanity mirror as if the pictures of her past were flashing in it.
She was three years younger than Zach. She was doing a part-time job as a dancer in a club, endorsed by her classmate to sustain her study and living. And all of that without Zach’s knowing.
At that time, Leon had become her loyal admirer and customer, who was giving her lots of tip and gifts, just for talking to him at his table.
