Chapter 667 - A.d.u.l.ts Part 2

New York

Athena had graduated last year in Business Course. Nathaniel and Kale take business together but the two skipped a year and they said that they rather chillax than going to school. So, at this moment, the two are still in college to finish the four-year course.

After her graduation, she chose to stay in New York for a while and managed her father's business a little. The rest, she had fun going around, disguising, and hooking up a little. But she's not completely flirting. Men go to her direction, initiating s.e.x. She never likes it until she's attracted to someone.

A one-night stand is fine. But, he should be someone that attracts her and someone who is good and expert and would please her for a night. Athena is very picky about it.

"Tequila with salt and lime." She told the barman of the Elite Bar branched in New York near her apartment.

The barman nodded and fixed her a drink. She took a sipped on it and licked on the salt and lime. She finished it and she ordered another. This time, she stared at her glass and played with it.

"Tequila, please." A man sat down beside her and she turned to him. "You are always alone?"

"I am fine being alone, Laurence."

Laurence is now 23 years old and he accelerated on courses and finished the four-year college into only 3 years. Now, he's taking a break and checking out their business in New York, as she does.

"So, I was thinking of leaving before Esme's 18th birthday. Let's fly together back to the Philippines by next week."

"Hmm." She thought for a while. "Next week, huh?"

"Yes." Laurence grinned. "What? Are you finally going to bring someone with you?"

"Yes." Athena smiled. "I'm bringing my cat."

He laughed at her.

"Okay, if you say so." Laurence looked around and men keep looking at Athena's way. "Is it I or the men are into you or me?" Laurence asked. She shrugged at him and finished her tequila.

"I think men are into you." She said pointing him then, she laughed. Laurence shook his head. He looked around and few hunky men are looking in his way like seducing him. He shuddered. He's not gay and he won't f.u.c.k a guy, even if the guy is a bis.e.x.u.a.l.

Athena left the bar and Laurence escorted her to her apartment before he went to his penthouse just nearby.

Noah's Penthouse

Bea woke up a little stiff but she smiled when Noah entered the room with three red roses and a tray for breakfast.

"Hey," he grinned and he kissed her lips as he gently put the table tray down. His kiss goes further to the hickeys around her b.r.e.a.s.t. She gasped and pinched his abdomen. He stopped and sat beside her.

"Please get my dress, please." She pouted at him.

"You look good." He told. She mooed at him and pinched his sides. He took his shirt and put it on her.

"I have one subject later in the afternoon." She said.

"Hmm, then, I'll wait for you." Noah took the mug and gave it to her. She sipped on it and sighed.

"It's for one hour."

"Hmm." He nodded.

"Where are we going after?"

"Anywhere you go? I can book any nearby hotel." He grinned at her. She laughed. "It's been two months since we had s.e.x. Last night was first for a while…"

"You didn't let me sleep." She frowned at him.

"I like it when you are riding on top of me." He whispered. She giggled and started eating.

New York,

Kade drove his car to the boutique. Laurence waved at him and he parked his simple car to the parking lot in front of the shop. He got out and follow Laurence inside.

"What are you getting to your siblings?"

"Well, I have a customized bow here for Esme with her initials. Then, I have bought pretty clothes for Rosie just at the other shop."

Kade shrugged and followed Laurence inside. They picked up the bow in a beautiful wooden case with Esme's initials.

"Oh, you are spoiling Esme."

"Yeah."

"Then, it's okay if I date her, right?" Kade asked, and Laurence left brow goes up. "What? Esme is cute, and I don't have a girlfriend. I think we'll suit well. Maybe on her eighteenth birthday?" Kade shrugged.

Laurence shrugged back and took the wooden case of the bow that is wrapped beautifully.

"So, it's fine with you?" Kade asked.

"Find someone at your age." Laurence patted him. They left the store and drove to another and another to picked up the things that Laurence had ordered. Then, they met Athena in the café.

"I already bought things." Athena pointed out the paper bags.

"That's a lot," Laurence said.

"Yeah, tell that to someone who didn't know what your sisters and brother like."

California Institute of Technology, Pasadena California

Natalia rubbed her forehead. She needed facial care because of pimples popping up making her face read. It's too much sugar and stress with all of the exams and research. Cyra is twenty-two and she goes off to college at the age of eighteen. So, Cyra caught up with her easily. She's the youngest student in the University and she surpassed a few stuff and moved on to another level. That makes her sit in the same class as Natalia.

"Your boyfriend is here," Cyra said and Natalia turned around to her boyfriend who is also a medical student like her.

Cyra needed to see how they kissed and she rolled her eyes.

"Hi, Cy." The man named Robert greeted.

He's wearing that one thousand dollar light blue long sleeve and denim pants. His hair sleek back and he wears that Versace perfume every time. Somehow, she thought that Robert once tried to flirt with her. But she didn't know because she simply didn't care.

He's also wearing a sports watch that Natalia gave to him on his birthday. It's an expensive watch and she didn't understand why she would buy something expensive.

"We are going to the café. Do you want to come?" Robert asked. Cyra looked at Natalia who nodded. She shrugged.

"Sure."

"I am with my other friend. Is that okay?" Robert asked, flashing his white perfect teeth.

"And, you plan a double date already," Cyra said with a smile with a little hint of sarcasm.

They indeed went to the café with Robert's flashy Audi car. His friend, the one she knew about who is in taking History and Philosophy of Science. She exhaled and the boy extended his hand to her.

"I'm Luke," he said. She scoffed a little.

"Great," She mumbled.

"What is it?" He asked politely.

"I said that you have the same name as my brother."

"Oh," Luke nodded and he escorted her inside as he gestured and put a hand over the small of her back. She stopped and put his hand away from her back.

Natalia sneered as they went to the good spot in the café. Cyra pulled a chair for herself and she watched as Robert become busy with his phone and Natalia pulled a chair for herself. She rolled her eyes. A waitress came.

The petite girl smiled and extend two menus. Luke took one and Cyra glanced at Robert as he typed fast on his phone and slid it to his pocket. Natalia ordered her food and Cyra only order a vegan burger and milkshake. Cyra looked at the name tag. Kelsie.

"Your order sir?" she asked.

"I'll have that double cheeseburger and macchiato," Robert said and then, Luke gave his order. Kelsie smiled, doing her best to do perfect customer service.

Cyra watched as Robert talked to Natalia sweetly. She rolled her eyes as they flirted and then this Luke guy tried to talk to her more than once or twice.

Yes, she's an a.d.u.l.t and she wasn't interested in dating. This is probably the second time or third that someone sets her up on a date. It didn't go well because she'll talk nasty things to turn them off. Today, she will make Natalia laugh.

Their order came and the same waitress came. Luke waited and Cyra could see the impatient expression of Luke. He concealed it. However, his body language speaks. Kelsie took the tray and Luke accidentally smacked his drink that fell on and poured on his expensive shirt.

"Shit!" Luke exclaimed.

"I'm so, sorry sir," Kelsie said.

"F.u.c.k," Luke kept cursing. Robert stood and give him a tissue. Cyra smirked.

"I'm so, sorry sir. I'll take another one for you." Kelsie seemed to panic.

"Please give us another," Cyra told her with a smile. Kelsie nodded and clean up the mess.

"Excuse me," Luke said and left to the bathroom.

"The waitress is careless," Robert commented. Natalia saw it too, so she looked at Cyra who only shrugged.

Then, soon, the drink came and Kelsie apologizes one more time. Soon, Cyra finished her drink and they still kept on talking until she started talking about medical.
