Astrid walked into her room and found her elder sister in bed with her fiancé. She was furious. "Astrid, I can explain," her sister said, but Astrid didn't want to hear it. She shut the door and stormed out.
She stood in the hallway for a while unable to move,she had been betrayed by her blood sister and her fiance,she felt tears crowding her eyes,her face was flushed with anger but she decided that they weren't worth crying for because this wasn't the first time it has happened. Rather she must have her revenge with Mira's fiance so Mira would understand how it feels.
She felt sad because she had already developed feelings for George and seeing him doing this was heart breaking. As she stood outside the door trying to hold back her tears she heard George telling Mira not to worry and reassuring her with kisses saying he'll handle me. WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN,DOES SHE LOOK LIKE A TOY?
Astrid returned to their banquet and searched for her elder sister's fiancé, Mr. Thompson. "Mr. Thompson, there's something that's very urgent and it needs your attention " she said. "Follow me."
They slipped away from the party, and when they were alone, Astrid said, "It's in your room." Mr. Thompson swiped his card wondering what was so important,they entered the room. Astrid kissed him abruptly ,but he pulled away, confused.
Mr. Thompson's expression changed.
"What's the meaning of this?" Mr Thompson asked in a stern tone.
"Mira cheated on you with my fiance George,so we need to get our revenge."
"What would I get if you get your revenge?" he asked. "I don't have anything against Mira, and I'm even happy she's doing it so I can break off the engagement. What do I get if you get your revenge?"
Astrid smiled. "You'll get paid," she said. "How much do you want?"
Mr. Thompson smiled back. "Let's talk about that later."
Few moments later
Mira walked into their room so she can have a shower and change into a different clothes, her eyes widening in shock as she found Astrid cuddling Mr. Thompson. She let out a loud scream, waking them up. Astrid smiled slyly when she saw Mira,she locked her eyes on hers and dropped a kiss on Mr. Thompson's bare chest, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction.
"How dare you?" Mira spat, her face red with anger.
Astrid sat up, a triumphant smile still plastered on her face. "You started it first," she replied, her voice dripping with malice.
Mr. Thompson, tired of their bickering, interrupted with a dismissive tone. "Go home and argue, don't bother me." He stood up, his movements abrupt, and began to get dressed.
Mira's face twisted in anger, she turned and stormed out of the room, leaving Astrid and Mr. Thompson alone. Astrid lay back on the bed, a smug smile still on her face, as Mr. Thompson got up to get dressed.
"Are you satisfied with the outcome?" Mr. Thompson asked, a hint of amusement in his voice.
Astrid nodded, a triumphant smile spreading across her face. "I am."
Mr. Thompson's expression turned serious. "You owe me, Astrid. Five million."
Astrid's eyes widened in shock, her smile faltering. "WHAT??!! That's too much"
Mr. Thompson shrugged, his shoulders barely moving. "Any problem?"
Astrid's mouth dropped open. "Five million for one night..."
Mr. Thompson nodded, his face unyielding. "Yes. I'm not cheap. You should have known that before you dragged me here."
Astrid's eyes narrowed, her mind racing with calculations. "There's no price tag on you."
Mr. Thompson smiled, a cold, calculating smile. "How do you want to pay? Cash or..."
Astrid's face paled as she realized the enormity of the sum. "I don't have up to half of the money."
Mr. Thompson shrugged again. "You can take a loan."
Astrid's eyes widened in horror. "How would I pay back?"
Mr. Thompson's smile grew wider. "That's up to you."
Astrid's mind reeled as she tried to comprehend the situation. "Who would pay five million for one night?"
Mr. Thompson's eyes locked onto hers, his gaze intense. "I would, depending on the product and the outcome."
Astrid was speechless, her mouth hanging open in shock ."Let's take it like it never happened."
Astrid shook her head, her eyes still wide with shock.
Andrew spoke up "I'm a businessman, and businessmen care about profits. I'm not interested in losing five million."
Mr Thompson didn't say a word and Astrid's face fell as she realized the gravity of her situation. "How do I pay you back?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Mr. Thompson's face was straight, his eyes glinting with a hint of challenge. "Well since you don't have money then you can be my mistress."
Astrid stood firm, her voice steady. "No way. I'll find a way to pay you."
