Chapter 495 - Come With Us

When Alveena returned to their private booth inside the restaurant, Tristan and Matthew were already there, talking with Zhen-Zhen and Sophia.

She observed them for a few moments without interrupting the two couples. She was so happy for them, two men loving her friends so much. She wondered if she would also experience that kind of love.

Her heart was still in pain, knowing that she would never be with the man she loved. She thought it was impossible for Andrew to love her since he already had a beautiful fiancee.

Alveena was thinking that Hannah was more likable than her. Hannah was the kind of woman any men would like because she was like a fine lady and so feminist, unlike her. She was too noisy for a girl matched with her fierce and boyish attitude.

Alveena tried her best to mask her sadness before facing them. She didn't want to show others how heartbroken she was today. She had just said her last goodbye to Andrew.

She knew that they would never be the same as before. She would try to avoid seeing him from now on. She could no longer annoy him or tease him. Just thinking about it, she felt like her heart was being pierced by daggers and it's bleeding right now.

She had to avoid and forget Andrew, that's the only way she could move on from this heartache.

'You can do this, Alveena. Fighting! I know you are stronger than this!' Alveena reminded herself.

After gathering her emotions, Alveena finally entered the private booth to join her friends.

"Oh, Alveena, you are here. Where's my brother?" Tristan asked her. He looked at the door of their booth, hoping to see Andrew but he didn't come.

"I think Boss Andrew is busy. He can't join us here," Alveena promptly responded to Tristan.

Tristan chuckled when he heard that. "He rushed here just to see you. I don't think he is busy. Ahem, you called him Boss. Does it mean he was able to convince you to go back and continue working for him?"

Zhen-Zhen looked at Tristan helplessly. She had the urge to seal his mouth. He had no idea that Alveena's and Andrew's relationship right now was very complicated.

"My brother was in a bad mood for the past two days because his personal assistant went AWOL!" Tristan added, informing Alveena.

Zhen-Zhen noticed that Alveena didn't look well. She wondered if Alveena and Andrew had finally talked regarding their feelings towards each other

Seeing the gloomy aura surrounding Alveena, Zhen-Zhen could tell that Andrew had chosen Hannah. She sensed that Alveena was just pretending to be fine in front of them.

She wanted to comfort her but she didn't know what to do. Zhen-Zhen had decided not to bother Alveena now, or else, she would get tired of pretending that she was just fine.

"Hmm, I think we should go home now. Alveena needs to take a rest. Her schedule became hectic because of her new job," Zhen-Zhen suggested to the group.

Alveena looked at her, feeling grateful. She knew that Zhen-Zhen was doing this for her. She also needed time to be alone.

Tristan was saddened after hearing that. That statement answered his question. Alveena would not be coming back to Heavenly Star anymore since she already had a new job.

"Alright, let's go home," Tristan said, wrapping his hand around Zhen-Zhen's waist.

"Bianca, why don't you come with me? I'll drop you home." Alveena said to Bianca. She was thinking that it was better to accompany Bianca since Tristan and Matthew were already there to pick up their women.

"Yes, Bianca. No need to accompany my wife now. You can go home early and rest. Next week, if you will agree, I want you to stay with us in the Davis Family Mansion so that you don't have to travel back and forth every day."

After paying for the bills, the six of them left the restaurant going to the parking lot. Andrew had already left as Alveena could no longer see his car in the parking area.

Alveena and Bianca said goodbye to the two couples and left the parking lot first. Zhen-Zhen and Sophia just watched Alveenas car leave.

Matthew and Tristan also brought their own cars. The two men were about to join the girls and guide them to their respective cars when suddenly several men came out of the two black vans and surrounded Zhen-Zhen and Sophia.

Matthew and Tristan felt alarmed the moment they witnessed that. They ran in their direction only to be stopped by the other men. Ten people were blocking Matthew and Tristan while there were four men grabbing Sophia and Zhen-Zhen, restraining them in place.

"Who are you? What do you need?" Matthew asked them through his gritted teeth. 

"Don't touch my wife! Release the girls!" Tristan demanded them with his stern cold voice.

From the appearance of the men, Tristan and Matthew could tell that they were members of a gang. They had tattoos all over their bodies. Most of them were bulky, having muscular build.

Despite that, Matthew and Tristan could fight them since they were also well-trained when it came to fist-to-fist combat. Two vs Fifteen people would not be an easy fight but they could handle them.

But the problem was the men who were holding Sophia and Zhen-Zhe. They were pointing knives at Sophia and Zhen-Zhen, holding them as hostages. 

Zhen-Zhen could easily fight the two men on her sides if she would use her strength. But Tristan looked at her meaningfully, warning Zhen-Zhen not to use her power in front of everyone. He would try to negotiate with them first.

"Do you need money? We can give them to you now. Just release the girls…" Tristan said to them.

It did not take long when the leader stepped up and talked to him.

"Mr. Davis, we don't want money. But don't worry, we will not hurt them as long as the two of you will cooperate with us. We wanted to invite you to come with us."
