Chapter 125: Soliciting a reaction
Piper could be seen with two other girls in the VIP area of a club. From where they sat, they could get a proper view of everything happening on the dance floor.
With a wine glass in hand, she stared boringly at the stripers enticing the men.
"Piper, what’s going on with you? Your mood these days speaks of heartbreak. Who is the good-for-nothing?" Muti, one of Piper’s foreign best friends asked while brushing Piper’s hair off her face. She was wearing a fiery red gown.
"Is there a man that would dare to break Piper’s heart? I don’t think so, unless they are courting death." Clara shook her head. She was clad in a black off-shoulder mini gown. She looked simple but drop-dead gorgeous.
Both girls were from Country Y and came to Country M only for Piper’s birthday.
Piper hates to celebrate her birthday because her brothers don’t show up. However, since her friends came this time, she decided to bring them to this club, owned by Maverick, hoping she could use the opportunity to see him.
She had asked the Manager if her brother was there but the Manager, just like her cold brother, didn’t give her a straightforward answer. Now, admitting to her friends, she doesn’t have the zeal of a birthday girl or of someone who could be entertaining her friends.
"I envy this b!tch as f*xk! She is the only sister to three sought-after men. If I were her, I would have long broken the barrier surrounding the damned stalemate of my relationship with my brothers." Clara stated with undisguised envy in her voice.
"Not when you’re in her messy situation." Muti sighed and picked up her drink.
"That’s right, Piper’s situation is beyond help. Why did her heart choose to beat for the wrong guy? Why not the last guy in the circle?" Clara mourned on her friend’s stead.
"Who goes near Psycho? Any lady who falls in love with that madman would automatically be giving her life as a lab rat for free." Muti said with disgust.
