Chapter 31
She looked around the party venue and everywhere she could think of but there was no trace of Gu Yanxi. Other attendees of the party were dancing away their worries. No one knew what was happening.
She took out her phone and called Gu Yanxi but she wouldn’t answer her phone. Emily panicked all the more.
Had someone taken her away? Or has that guy she was with probably kidnapped her?
Was she okay where she was?
Was she in danger?
What if she was having a very difficult time?
“Do I have to be so negative? She will definitely be fine wherever she is,” she said to herself trying her best to pull herself together. She looked at her time and saw it was almost time for Liam’s caretaker to leave. They had only hired her for a while as they hoped to return early from the party.
She took one last careful look around the hall, called Gu Yanxi’s number again before she decided to hope for the best and go home.
“Ahhhh!! Harder…. Jessy…. ohh…”
Gu Yanxi was somewhere in a guy’s house making out while Emily was worried sick about her.
It happened that she found the young man from the party pretty cool and easy going. They talked for a long time and everything ended in the bedroom.
Gu Yanxi gave him her virginity that night and Andy had in turn given her the best sex ever. Gu Yanxi’s phone kept ringing throughout the making out process. Emily called non stop as she was disturbed. She paced about all night and only fell asleep in the wee hours of the morning. What she did not know was that the girl she was worried about was in someone’s arms, moaning and enjoying herself.
The sex was so intense that they both fell asleep immediately after.
Gu Yanxi rubbed her eyes as the sun rays from the half open windows shone on her face. The guy beside her opened his eyes at that time and smiled at her. She couldn’t help but smile back. His smile was very beautiful and seductive. He pulled her closer and sealed his lips with hers. There wasn’t any need to take off their clothing as they were both naked. He grabbed her breasts and gently caressed her nipples. She gave out a soft moan which was like music to his ears. He bent down and took one of the pink teats in his mouth. His other free hand moved delicately between her legs and was soon at the entrance of her delicate part.
Gu Yanxi’s phone rang again and jotled her to reality. It occurred to her that it was morning and a working day. She disengaged herself from Jessy to his greatest dismay and picked up her phone. It was another call from Emily. She had seventy eight missed calls from her!! She grabbed her clothes and bag, dressed up and ran out of the house admist questions from the confused Jessy.
Emily was about locking the door with a dejected look on her face when she saw Gu Yanxi approach her. She smiled broadly and hugged her dearly and tightly.
“Are you okay?”
“What happened to you?”
“I have been calling you. I was bothered about you. Tell me Yanxi, what happened?”
Gu Yanxi didn’t know what to say. How will her friend who had been worried all night feel if she told her she had slept in a guy’s house?This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
She was carried away the previous night that she forgot to inform Emily if her whereabouts.
“I.. I..”
“It’s alright. It’s great to have you back hale and hearty. I made breakfast. Hurry up and go to work. You can’t be late or you will have some nasty explanations to make. I will see you when I get back.”
Emily left hurriedly leaving Gu Yanxi at the door. Gu Yanxi stared at her retreating figure and smiled slightly.
She had a friend, a sister, a mother, in fact, everything in Emily. She felt bad for not informing her of her whereabouts the previous night. She promised herself that it would never happen again. She sighed and entered the house.
The smell of chocolate wafted into her nostrils and she felt her stomach rumble. She was hungry but she needed to have her bath first. She needed to clean up from last night.
She spent more time thinking about the previous night’s affair than bathing. With every thought and memory that occurred to her, she smiled broadly and closed her eyes to imagine the moment again. She could swear she wanted more.
Emily walked into the office building and noticed that many people were staring at her and making faces at her. She normally resumed work one hour after the normal office hours. She was just a designer and had limited tasks. The serious atmosphere changed to a less serious one and everyone had a nasty comment to make. They made such comments in hused tones so she could not find out what the problem was.
“Oh no! This is the last thing I want. Drama! I don’t want this kind of thing at my work place. Heavens please,” she prayed in the silence of her heart.
“She couldn’t even make a simple design.”
“Then it means all her works were fake.”
“Who knows how she got the job? Maybe she had crawled up into the Master’s bed and the beds of so many top shareholders. She’s so shameless.”
Emily was finally able to point out something from their whispers. But they all didn’t make sense to her. What did they mean by she couldn’t make a simple design? Did they see her work the previous day? Or some of her sample works?
She dismissed their comments as plain jealousy. It was normal for people not to be pleased with your success. But what she did not understand was why everyone was suddenly against her that morning. Who could it have been that had sown the seed of discord and enemity? And what was her offence?
