Chapter 3

Moving towards the parking lot, Andre walks just behind Lena who seem to have forgotten about his existence behind her, she was infuriated and it clouded her thoughts. Andre slid his left hand into his pocket maintaining his ever calm countenance as he observed her. He stopped in his tracks, the crazy demon inside her had ruined their night. They were supposed to talk things out but her wide and lousy mouth didn't give them a chance. It was a tense night for them and he tried everything within his power to stop her from exploding in anger before everyone.

"You walking too fast." He said in an attempt to calm her fleeing steps but she turned deaf to his voice, clicking her heals more aggressively as she made her way into the car. Sam, Andre's driver had the door already opened for them, he looked calm but was bubbled with thoughts and questions to the lady's attitude. It wasn't surprising, she was always high headed and rude with her behaviour, it made him wonder why his boss kept a girl like her paying heavily for her unimpressive services towards him. It all had to do with the contract but he could end it if he wanted so why did he let things drag this much.

"Get out of the car." He ordered in a cold voice. Lena looked at him a hint of shock in her eyes, was he really speaking that way to her. She sighed and kept her focus on empty space not heeding his words. A long silence reigned between them, she was too infuriated that his cold gaze at her didn't matter much. He would bend to her rules soon, she bet he knew whom he was dealing with, she always got what she wanted at the end.

Andre sighed, shutting his eyes, folding his fist down to suppress the anger that buit up in him. He was fed up already but he had three months to the end of their contract, so he wanted to work things out. He had endured her for so long a few more months wouldn't cause any harm.

"Are you deaf now Lena!" His voice startled her but she remained still, not submitting to the threat under his words.

"And do what Mr. Andre?" Her gaze slowly turned towards him.

"Do you honestly plan to leave like this? Is this what you really want, to end it like this?" His voice bore a rising anger but his sanity was still intact. He was doing too much for her but she didn't realize it. He was close to that breaking point where he'd show her the real him that cared nothing about her feelings. He had only tried to be human to her all this while.

She stepped out of the car slowly, the corners of her eyes filling up with anger fluid, he looked at her unmoved by it even though her gaze bore a serious warning in it. What was she going to do now? He didn't get the chance to figure it out when her hands began raining hits on him and her lips showering him with curses. He shut his eyes protecting it from her long fingers, his driver Sam could only stare with bulged eyes unable to do anything.

"Stop Lena...." He said calmly but she kept on with her assault. "I said stop!" He roared seizing her hands at the same time. She tried to free herself but his grip was hard on her making her wince in pain. He maintained a deadly gaze at her which caused her to flinch. A sudden sound steals their attention, turning their heads at once towards the direction of the sound. Andre stared longer even when Lena had waved the sound off as nothing serious. He could swear that he saw someone.

"Are you even paying attention to me?" She asked seeing he wasn't taking away his gaze from the spot. He turned to look at her.

"How can I pay attention to someone who has nothing but Ill words towards me?"

"Because you deserve it... Had you listened and just given me what I wanted we wouldn't be in this situation!" She yelled.

"And what is it that you want? He feigned ignorance knowing exactly what she meant. She scoffed at his pretentious attitude.

"You're kidding."

"How can you be sure when I don't know what you are talking about." He said still maintaining his ground.

" I've been asking for a raise in my monthly allowance and benefits as your sugar baby but you insist on not doing so." She let the words fall out quickly.

"And what right do you have to ask such? He was dead serious. She couldn't believe his boldness now. " Was it part of the contract you signed or you just feeling entitled to something you have no right over?" His words made her legs retreat in shock. His voice was deep cold and uncaring. She had never seen him so unmoved by her attitude. This was new to her.

"Things have gotten really good for you the past few months, more deals and investors have flooded into your company. Your networth just doubled in the space of few months and it's all over the news. Don't I deserve a raise?

"I don't think so." He said coldly.

"Huh? Why? I am the best and most wanted sugar baby, you should be happy to have me."

"Unfortunately you turned out to be the worst. I brought you here to talk things out and give you a chance but instead you complain of how low in quality this place is and still rudely demand for a raise when you have not impressed me a bit. The truth is ... You are overrated and I honestly pity everyone who has wasted their money on you."

W-what? Lena couldn't believe her ears, he just said all that without blinking. Her pride was completely shattered. She lost her self esteem in just few seconds. He made her look worthless. Andre sighed as if getting ready to say what he had held up within.

"That is why I came prepared with a second offer." His assistant James brought a brown long envelop containing some papers. He handed it over to Lena who looked at it suspiciously before opening to read the content in it.

Her eyes widened in shock at it's content. She held the papers up high and pointed angrily at him.

"All my years, no one has ever ended my contract rather they seek to renew it. This is absolute nonsense! I will not accept your offer. Raise my allowance and benefits, I will not walk away like this!"

Andre scoffed before raising his face to meet hers. He could see the dissapointed look on her face. She was speechless at his reaction.

" They must be men without worth or rather you are lying, they merely endured you because you were good in bed. At least that's one thing you are good at. Consider my offer carefully. We'll meet when you have a reply till then never contact me." He nodded to his driver giving him the silent go ahead to drive her back to her place. They were supposed to leave together but now he had to wait till his driver returned to pick him.

Matilda fell her back to rest on the body of the car she had been hiding behind it once she heard the vehicle leave. She sighed heavily, she almost got caught eavesdropping on them but she couldn't help but envy the girl. She was lucky to be a sugar baby to such a breath taking beauty. From everything she had observed, she was earning well from being his sugar baby. How she wanted just that. She stood up clutching her bag to herself. She could now leave without worrying about getting caught.

"I hope you've gathered a lot for your report." That awe striking voice stopped her in her tracks just that this time she could sense the coldness in his voice. Her legs were shaky as she turned slowly to to face him. She could see him taking daring steps towards her and she couldn't resit the impulse to shuffle back.

"One more step and I'll kill you."
