Third Person's point of View
When Agatha successfully made Alejandro give up on taking Lucretius' from her, she smiled viciously while caressing his hair. Noticing his deep sleep, she openly stared and ogled him from face to toe with a prominent desire.
"Well, well, well, look at you turning me on without even doing anything. Not even looking at me." she muttered as she continued with her caressing act.
The loud night goes on like that without Lucretius' being aware.
'Flashback'
"Agatha, are you crying?" 10 years old Lucretius ask her upon seeing her under a willow tree beside a small lake. She is curled and her back is facing Lucretius. Her soft yet audible sniffle indicated Lucretius that she is somewhat crying.
Agatha, hearing Lucretius' voice, instantly turned her head to her back and smiled lightly to Lucretius even though she is indeed crying.
"What happened?" Lucretius asked while sitting beside her.
Agatha was silent for a moment before replying to him. "Well, mom wouldn't let me take the sandal that I wanted at the shop before and told me that she would take it for me when I turned 10. Now that I am 10, she still doesn't want me to buy it. "
"Why is that?"
"I don't know as well, it's not like we lack money. We are rich and daddy said so. Right Lucretius? Don't you think we are rich like you?"
Lucretius sighed like an old man. "Yes you are rich but no we are not. Perhaps it's not about your money but something else. Did your mother said anything why she didn't want you to buy it?"
Agatha pouted then glared at the lake in front of them as it could convey how angry she was or as if it was her mother. "That's another thing, she said no reason. I am getting upset already."
"Well, I hope you can divert your wish to this. Aunt Amabel wants you to have this. It's her gift to you. Happy birthday Agatha. " With that, Lucretius was about to leave when Agatha held his hand.
"Please don't leave me yet. Can we open my present together" She pleaded as she try to grab him closer to her.
Lucretius being a silent boy, merely sat without any protest. Upon opening, Agatha's expression beamed as she saw the sandal she has been wishing for. Her happy and satisfied yet shocked face turned to Lucretius. " So, this is the reason?! " She exclaimed while almost dancing with the pair of sandals in her hands. "I can't believe it, thank you so much Lucretius!"
Lucretius merely shrugged. "Thank Aunt Amabel, not me."
"But still, you're the one who gave it to me here so thank you. You're really nice."
Upon hearing her lightened feeling, Lucretius stood. "I need to go." He stated as he heeds none of her protests.
'Present'
Lucretius woke up from the sound of a running water from what seemed to be a shower. Slowly opening his eyes, he tried to look at his window to see the sunrise but there was no window. Upon realizing that he's in a foreign room, he immediately stood and cursed under his breath while looking irritably everywhere. When the shower turned off, he waited for the anonymous person to present them in front of his eyes. Seeing Agatha, the furrows in his forehead deepened.
"What is happening?" He started without even acknowledging the only clothed in robe woman.
Agatha smiled. "I'll be glad to answer that, but can you please let me get changed first. Or do you prefer me in-"
Lucretius turned away without even finishing her sentence. "The clock is ticking." He merely stated as he walked towards the balcony of the foreign room. As he asses his surroundings even more, he understood that it was inside the hotel of their venue yesterday. Reaching for his phone inside the pocket of his pants, he called Alejandro. A little bit angry that the old man let Agatha take him.
"Yes sir?"
"Where are you old man?" Lucretius asked in a slightly irritated voice.
Alejandro merely smiled to himself upon hearing his nickname 'old man'. Usually, Lucretius only say that when he is angry towards him. Which means that he is angry at him right now.
"I am on the way to your location sir. " He tried saying to appease him as he drove quickly to where his phone locates his master.
Lucretius turned off his phone upon hearing him coming. Then he returned to where Agatha is. She just finished adorning her body and is currently putting her lipstick while seductively looking at Lucretius through the mirror.
"What happened?" He immediately asked while warning her to tell the truth through her eyes.
"Come on Lucretius, why are you so grump-"
"Narrate it or I will narrate your cruelty to your parents." Lucretius interruptedly demanded.
Agatha, upon hearing her parents mentioned, she instantly dropped her seductive facade and turned back to face him. "Fine, you slept beside me, so I asked the staff to take you here with me."
"Where was Alejandro."
Agatha opened her mouth but closed it slowly as if contemplating what to say. She starts to look worried. "He wanted to take you, but I said I'll take care of you."
Lucretius was silent for a moment.
"Don't worry Mr. clean guy, nothing happened I promise. " Agatha added upon sensing Lucretius' irritation.
Lucretius didn't respond but only took his coat and directly went through the door. Already ringing his phone again. Unbeknownst to him, Agatha inside continued to adorn her face with a mischievous smile, a cunning one as well.
Agatha is a beautiful woman. The typical wealthy and famous celebrity who is blonde and sexy. She has a tall stature as well. Her facial features are akin to a combination of an American and Italian face. With white and soft skin. Although she has been rumored to have a lot of men outside, she didn't do anything to contradict or silence such words. Because it is true. Even her parents cannot do anything because silencing the rumors would mean stopping the air from roaming around. But that was not why Lucretius don't like her. She was a cunning woman who took advantage of her friendship to him and her parent's partnership to his company. Because her parents are the third seated loyal partner of the company, she used it to help her now ex-boyfriend who was a well-known fraud in the world of business. She took their strategies that made the small unknown company spread worldwide in just a year. Lucretius, being a competitive and curious businessman, studied the company and there, he learned that his own strategy was used. That time, he almost removed everyone whom he and Alejandro suspected to be the culprit, but he re-employed them when a hidden security camera from his office was placed, and Agatha was the one who got caught. She was, then and there, immediately interrogated and was removed any right and shares from the company. The parents, unable to do anything, remained silent, because even if they have a strong and powerful influence on the company, Lucretius will still be more powerful without them. They knew more than to challenge the grandson of a business master. So, Lucretius, sensing that they are silent and yielding to his actions, retained their position. He only removed who the unnecessary and traitor one is. Agatha was prideful, so she acted like she didn't care about it, but on the long run, it was the actual reason why she broke up with her boyfriend.
