Chapter Three

"MCkenzie's bar, Sydney, Australlia

"What's it dude.. i had to rush here immediately you called.. what's going on? Jerry Austin, Asha's best buddy asked immediately he located Asha in the bar.

Asha was in a disguise or else fans would had flooded him, even in his disguise he still caught some persons staring.

In response to Jerry, he gulped down a glass of wine in front of him and looked at Jerry who had taken a seat.

"Hey buddy.." he whispered but Jerry heard him clearly.

He hit his forehead and sighed.

"Don't tell me your drunk Asha.. for f**k sake what's going on?! Jerry asked his voice rising a little.

Asha chuckled, why was Jerry getting upset? maybe he was having a nice f**k before he called him.. just maybe.

"My dad is gonna hand the company over to Tasha" Asha said and for a minute Jerry could not fathom any meaning out of what Asha said.

"Wait, you mean your dad is gonna give your company to your sister? he asked to be sure he heard clearly.

Asha smiled and poured himself another glass of drink, he raised it to his lips but before he could take a sip, Jerry snatched it.

He frowned..

"Asha, talk to me.. i need to understand.. Jerry said putting the glass away.

"What is it you don't f**king understand huh? the fact that dad is gonna give my sister the company if i don't get married? the fact that Tasha will be returning in a few days? or the fact that i'm about losing an inheritance?! Asha asked slightly upset.

People were looking in their direction although the music playing was enough to keep their voices from being heard..

"W..what?" Jerry asked in shock as he blinked repeatedly.

The company was gonna be Tasha's, if Asha don't get married..

Now, this is complicated.. Asha had sure slept with a lot of girls but he never dated any.. where does he start in finding a bride?

"Chill dude.." Jerry said patting his shoulders as Asha retrived his glass, gulping down its content in a go.

"What do i do huh?" Give the company to Tasha?" Asha asked after a while of silence.

"We will figure out a plan or something.. but.. you can at least get a girl.. for the meantime till the company is yours" Jerry said and Asha smiled.

"Thats what i intend on doing, but who's the girl gonna be? what if she refuse a divorce eventually? You know how these girls could be crazy about 'Asha'.. he said and chuckled sadly.

"We will get a girl Asha, we will" Jerry said assuringly.

"Hope your getting ready Hailey.. Paige asked as soon as Hailey entered her office.

Hailey nodded and forced a smile..

She was ready to accept fate..

"I'm getting ready Ma'am" Hailey said and Paige grinned in satisfaction.

"Fine, you can leave now.. i will text the details of your flight to you" Paige said and Hailey nodded before walking out of the office shutting the door behind her.

Such a good riddance.. she thought and smiled to herself.

*The next day*

"Take care sis, and always make sure you call and send us money" Jasper said as they got to the airport, Hailey was leaving.

She smiled and turned to her parents who had been quiet all through.

"Mum, dad" she started then paused.

Her time was slowly ticking out, she's leaving America.. her birth country.

"Mum, dad.. i would miss you" she said before embracing the both of them at a time, blinking her eyes trying to keep her tears away but it seemed just impossible.

Her parents returned the hug..

"We will miss you too, Honey" her mum said in a teary voice.

Hailey sniffed and broke the hug looking into their eyes.

"You all should take care" she murmured wiping her mum's tears.

"Just be fine Hailey, and if you want to return.. just let us know okay?" her dad said and Hailey smiled at him sniffing.

"Should i not get a hug? Jasper asked as he folded his arms pouting.

Hailey turned to him..

"Your not getting a hug, because your happy to see me gone.." Hailey said and Jasper frowned.

"Says who? if it were left for me to decide, you won't even be leaving our house! I'm junior trying to be strong for mum and dad, you don't expect me to be crying like a baby, do you?" Jasper asked and Hailey smiled before pulling him into a hug.

He was pained, he definitely was..

"How about me?" Jasmine asked and everyone laughed.

Hailey broke the hug and went into Jasmine's arms..

"I will miss you bestie.." Jasmine said as she rubbed Hailey's back.

"I will miss you more" Hailey said and broke the hug looking into Jasmine eyes.

"Take of my family" she whispered to her and Jasmine nodded trying to blink back the tears trying to fall.

Hailey looked at everyone and took a step back.

"Hailey, c'mon now!" Paige said as she stood at quite a distance watching the emotional drama.

Hailey turned to her parents and a tear dropped..

She closed her eyes and opened them almost immediately.

She turned and walked towards Paige, everyone bidding her farewell.. she took a last glance at her family before disappearing into the plane..

*2:00am, chaperlain hotel, sydney, Australlia*

Paige knocked on the door of the Manager of Charperlian hotel Australlia branch, she heard a faint come in and swiftly pushed the door open with Hailey trailing behind her.

"Good day sir.." Paige greeted referring to a man in his early thirties, who looked like a 27 year old.

The man replied her, his eyes stopping on Hailey who fondled her palms.

"She is the one"? he asked although the answer was glaring.

"Yes" Paige said after they were both seated.

"She's pretty" he muttered but Paige heard him as a frown crept up her face.

"Soo.. accomodation arrangements?" Paige asked wiping the frown away.

"Umm, yeah.. we will give her an apartment, but she can spend the night here and tomorrow we look for an apartment for her" Mr. Rex said and Paige flashed a smile.

Rex turned to Hailey..

"Whats your name?" he asked and Hailey gulped down nothing, well, the guy was handsome.

"..Hailey.. Hailey Bratt" she rushed and Rex smiled at her, which took her breath away.

"Good, Hailey what was your position back in America?" He asked and Hailey raised her brow.

Paige should had fed him with the necessary information..

"A receptionist" she said and Paige rolled her eyes.

Rex is acting all sweet towards her.. gosh!

"Umm, we have a receptionist already.. you don't mind being a Waitress, do you? Rex asked rubbing his sweaty palms together.

Hailey scoffed mentally, she doesn't have a choice.. so why is he asking?

"I don't mind really" she muttered and he smiled then turn to Paige..

"Your returning to America today? he asked and she heaved.

"Yeah, i got a hotel to manage.." she said and he nodded.

"Fine then, umm.. i will show Hailey around" he said and stood up.

Paige raised a brow.. he wants to show Hailley around but that's the work of a colleague.. gosh, he likes her already.

"Whatever.." she muttered and stood up, Hailey joining her..

Rex adjusted his cloth and rounded his table walking to Hailey's side.

"Can we?" he asked and she felt like melting already..
