Chapter 218 - 217: Celine's Secret
While the atmosphere in Nathan and Eunji's house was festive, inside the most expensive bar in the QPRC, a woman was drowning her nth glass of vesper on the bar counter.
The woman was so beautiful. She was wearing a hoodie underneath her denim jacket with her earphones on. She was wearing a bob cut hair wig and a she's wearing a fake mole.
Maybe because she had drank quite a lot that her face was flushing red and she looked so seductive. However, she was still sober.
Another woman was sitting beside her and had a couple of martini with her.
"Yuki. Come on! Let's go. I'm really drunk! I can't take it anymore." Samantha said in a slur.
Yes, the beautiful girl was Celine in disguise. She's still a celebrity after all so she still had to protect her reputation while having fun.
"Tssk! You still haven't changed Sam. Your tolerance to alcohol was still so low." Celine said in fake disappointment tone.
"Who is drunk? I'm not drunk. I can still drown ten more glasses." Sam drunkenly said.
Hearing her manager saying that, Celine was speechless.
"Let's go...you're really helpless!" Celine said as she tried to help her drunk manager back to their suite.
When she successfully did, she left her manager into the guest room of Nathan's suite, she went back to the bar to continue drowning herself with alcohol. The night was still young.
She's in no mood to celebrate at all.
This was actually the day she was sent for adoption and the exact day when her ex-boyfriend dumped her and be with another woman.
She could smile in front of camera every day but not this day. She would always ask for a day off when this day of the year arrived.
The bartender was quite friendly and decides to have a talk with her while she was sipping on her third glass ever since she went back. The young man was quite energetic and she liked him.
While she was talking with the young bartender, another man sat beside her and was trying to flirt with her.
Though Celine had drunk a lot, she still knew what was happening around her. And she only felt a little dizzy. She had a high tolerance to alcohol. Being alcoholic was quite her dark secret.
Especially when she's emotionally triggered.
"Hey pretty girl! Want to spend the rest of the night with me and my boys?" The man said while looking at the group of men sitting two tables away from her.
From his tone, it was clear that he had bad intention from Celine. She followed his glance and saw that they were a group of third generation heirs together with other women sitting in their lap.
Celine was quite surprised. She thought since she's staying in the most expensive accommodation in the city and was sipping a drink in the bar inside it, none of this would happen to her.
But she was wrong. Wherever she went, scums would always approach her.
From her peripheral vision, the guard who Nathan assigned to follow her was about to approach but she waived her hand. She could handle this kind of horny bastards so well.
Celine flashed her most beautiful smile at him making the latter think that she's also into him.
She looked down on the space between his thigh and she could see a growing bulge in it.
Celine was cursing him deep in her heart. She wanted beat him into pulp and if possible, cut his private parts.
"So, wanna come?" The man was about to place his filthy hands around her waist but Celine grabbed his wrist first and holding it so tight.
"Sure.... but in one condition." Celine tilted her head while looking at the man.
Maybe because she had seen a lot of handsome men while working as an actress, the man's handsome appearance looked average for her.
And besides, she had a very handsome brother and his friends were pretty handsome too.
Seeing that Celine was easy to talk to, the man grinned and said, "Shoot!"
"Are you staying in QPRC, too? If yes, show me your card. I'm staying in one of the rooms on the next building, if the card you're holding is higher than mine, then I'll go with you. However, if mine is higher, then I am sorry I have to turn you down. As a woman, I know my worth so I won't settle for less." Celine told the man.
She knew men had their pride to protect and her way was quite mean but for sure, the way he looked at her, he was treating her like an easy-going and cheap woman because she's wearing a not so flashy clothes.
Aside from the guests, walk-in customers could go on the hotel's other facilities such as the bar and casino as long as they paid the high entrance fee.
The man's face turned red and then white and then green because of anger.
"You!" He was fuming with rage.
Seeing that a commotion was about to occur, the manager immediately came forward so with the bouncers.
"Dear Ms. Sato, Mr. Gu is there any problem?" The manager asked.
"None that I could not handle so far." Celine said while drowning the contents of her glass in one go while looking at the man who had a complicated expression now.
If her guess was right, they entered here by doing the latter than the former.
"Oh. Mr. Gu, can you please go back to your table where your friends are?" The manager told the man as polite as possible.
He had been monitoring the CCTV footages on the admin office behind the bar counter. So he had an idea what was going on.
Before one could enter the bar, they had to present their membership card or any valid ID to prove their identity for security purposes, so they knew all of these people inside.
If trouble arises, they knew who to call to settle the matter.
And the manager knew who was the man talking to right now. Though her membership card was still under Nathan's name, she's still Nathan's sister.
"Oh, I'm just trying to talk to this lonely girl here. I didn't mean any harm at all." Mr. Gu tried to explain.
"Oh. Then what's that knowing from your friends out there when you approached me? Though the manager was here, it doesn't mean that I'll let you off the hook." Celine didn't mind to be petty with the man.
'Is she not drunk? How is she able to hold a sober conversation when she had finished a lot?' The guy said in his thoughts.
"Do you know who I am? I am a Bai." Mr. Gu arrogantly said.
"Oh interesting. But please keep that arrogant attitude of yours in check. You don't want to mess with me." Celine threatened as she was getting irritated at the moment.
"Do you know Nathaniel Bai? I am his cousin!" He arrogantly announced.
"Tsk. The hell? As far as I know, Niichan no longer associated himself to you people." Celine mumbled on her breath.
"Mr. Gu using someone's name is very inappropriate. Please behave yourself if you didn't want you and your friends to be thrown out from our premises." The manager warned him.
'How dare you use Master Bai's name in front of his own sister?' The manager thought.
This made the arrogant Gu to be angry again. Maybe because he had drunk a quite a lot when he approached her, his easily triggered.
He only wanted to ask this woman to be his woman for the night but not only was she hard to get, even the manager was pissing him off. And this was very unacceptable for him!
He was indeed a Bai but he was a descendant from the branch family.
"If my cousin found out about this, then I'm sure he won't let you off! And even so, I am a Gu. No one ever dared to look down on my family!"
"Wanna bet? I'm sure Mr. Manager has Master Bai's phone number. Call him. If he'll acknowledge any of you then I'll bow down to you and agree to be your woman for tonight." Celine challenged.
Her term was already impossible to begin with.
But when she thought that this man had become defensive, she irritated him even more by adding, "And so what if you're a Gu? You can't even afford the membership here." She mocked.
"What? Cat got your tongue?" Celine sneered.
Seeing that the man was silent, Celine turned to the manager and said, "Please prepare any VIP room for me. I want to have a peaceful drink."
"Right away Miss Sato!" The manager said.
"And you! Listen to my last warning Mr. Gu. Master Bai quite had a temper. The last person who used his name to get his way here was sent to prison immediately and was banned from bailing. Do you want that to happen to you?" 'If this man continued to make a fuss, then he's the most stupid person ever tonight.' He continued on his thoughts.
The Gu family was nothing compared to Nathan's influence here in the city.
The manager left to arrange her VIP room. Mr. Gu had no other choice but to retreat for now. However, he held a grudge against the woman who insulted him.
Even if he's only from a branch family, he's still a Gu Young Master and heir and he wanted to teach the manager a lesson for mistreating him.
"Young Master Gu, what happened?" His companions asked in concern but deep inside he knew they were mocking him actually.
"Cut the crap! I want that woman's information and that manager's information now!" He said.
Celine decided to ignore them and proceeded to order another one.
When she was about to go up on the second floor, she decided to visit the ladies room first as she wanted to pee.
But before she could even get inside the ladies room, someone grabbed her by the arm.
She angrily looked back to check who dared to grab her.
"Mr. Jin?" she said the moment she recognized him.
Seeing that the man does not look good at all, she was worried.
She immediately called one of the male staff of the bar who happened to pass by so he could help her in bringing J to her VIP room. Of course he recognized his boss.
"Miss, Master J seemed to be drugged." The male staff told her.
"Then, should we call an ambulance and bring him to the hospital?" she asked him.
"Forget it. Let's bring him into my room. I'll call a private doctor to check him over. If this news go out. It would be troublesome." Celine instructed the man.
"Ask the manager to keep the CCTV recordings. I'm sure when he got better, he would investigate," she added.
With this happening, she was no longer in the mood to continue drinking.
"Okay!"
