"did they turned off the ac? why is it suddenly hot here?" Madam Zhi complained.

"aiya~ isn't that...what a very handsome lad! I can't believe ill see him here in person, such lucky day!" Thea giggled with an astonished expression.

"what is it Thea?" Madam Zhi casually asked.

"the king of business world whose all over the headlines recently, s.h.i.+n Keir! aiya if only im few years young-"

coughed! coughed! coughed!

Yeri almost spit out the frappe she's drinking, did she just heard her utter that foreboding and spine-chilling name?!

"are you ok princess? something wrong with your drink?" madam Zhi worriedly ma.s.sage her back.

"here tissue...is the frappe bitter?" Stan gently pa.s.s her the tissue but Yeri didn't failed to notice the change on his demeanor.

"no...", Yeri force out a smile and look at Stan's mom. "uhm...madam you know CEO Keir.?"

"not personally, but who wouldn't? the man is a sin himself! no wonder the media cant get enough of him." Thea happily spoke.

"mother how can you say that in front of your son? your saying that his more good looking than me?" Stan snorted.

"It really is him..." Madam Zhi muttered.

Yeri couldn't be bothered any longer after hearing the confirmation from her mother. Did h.e.l.l froze over? Is this his important matter to attend to? hanging around a cafe?!

He didn't see her acting flirty right? its not like she's on a date!

'yeri dont look! dont look! don't ever turn around!!!' Yeri internally advice herself.

While Yeri is on her own world, Stan is clenching his fist trying to suppressed his anger.

This is also the first time his seeing s.h.i.+n and he can't deny the imposing and oppressive aura he exudes. He have to tread carefully if he wanted to take back Calin.

"he might be handsome and wealthy but i don't really have a good impression with him...you know with the news going around." madam zhi nonchalantly explained.

"Madam Zhi is very insightful... i too feel the same." Stan quickly agreed.

Yeri frowned, somehow she didnt like the weight of those words...was it because she's more familiar with s.h.i.+n? It still doesn't feel right, she's evil not someone righteous.

"are you alright?" Stan asked and held her hand.

Yeri abruptly pulled out her hand, that feeling when someone's drilling holes on your back!

"uhm-sorry i nneed to go to the ladies room." Yeri awkwardly spoke seeing Stan's startled face.

She quickly left not waiting for Stan's response, her freedom is at stake! she needs to think of a credible explanation to the crazy bipolar.

Same time,

At an abandoned building, south of Sin City

"hehe boss are you impress of me now?! i did exactly what you asked!" the man loudly boasted.

There were a lot of pictures scattered on the table while the said boss is looking through a file handed to him.

"Yeri jewel Zhi heiress of Zhi company who owns the upscale cafe zhillion...she's just 18?" the boss muttered.

"as expected with the boss, his ability to pluck an expensive flower amid the vast garden is so bada.s.s!" one of the men exclaimed.

"honestly, i've never seen a woman this pretty...hey did you use some filter with this pictures?" another man chimed in.

"are you questioning the authenticity of this pictures?! don't you know how hard to take close-up pictures of her, i have to use long-range zoom camera otherwise ill get caught!"

"caught?"

"tsk! so you all thought it was just another walked in the park? daughter's of rich folk usually have bodyguards plus she lives at her school! I have to wait all day outside of her school just to capture some pictures! sometimes i can't even caught up where she goes... f*ck*n bodyguards!" the man complained.

"she doesn't have a boyfriend?" the boss asked.

The man scratched his head, "i dont think so boss...those sissys I randomly asked at her school all claim they are her boyfriend, f*ck*n r.e.t.a.r.ds!"

"hahahaha no wonder she have bodyguards! her parents must be having a hard time choosing her fiance with a long list of suitors!" some men said.

"boss as you can see from my report...this woman is really treasured and pampered by her parents, they have gone to the extent of hiring that much bodyguards! i think there were 4-5 of them...hehe surely they won't even hesitate to pay a huge amount of ransom money." the man spoke while rubbing his palms.

"how are we going to do that when you said so yourself it's hard to get close to her?" one of the men asked.

"hehe boss i found us an opportunity... " the man grinned evily and discreetly told something to his boss.

The boss deviously smiled upon hearing it, "good job, from now on you will be my right-hand man."

"yahoo! i won't fail you boss! ill hand the pretty doll to you unscathed and fresh for you to enjoy!"

The group burst out laughing and started spouting obscene words except one of them.

He didn't like the idea of abducting some rich woman since its not what they initially came there, they already raise suspicions after the boss killed some woman from that city, as much as possible no one should know of there existence.

A picture fell-off from the table and the man casually pick it up- Yeri can be seen holding her laptop while her other hand is holding a coffee cup, her hair is blown by the wind as she look down.

'beauty is a blessing, but it can also be a cursed' the man recalled some famous saying.
