Chapter 50

He messaged back: [After my car got fixed, the rain was too heavy, so I turned back. Not coming tonight!] Esme was fuming! She had waited all night, from eight in the evening until half-past twelve, and he just bailed like it was nothing. Was he playing with her?! She was Esme! The eldest daughter of the Russell family! She was the one who stood others up, not the other way around! Esme was livid. She grabbed her phone, ready to tear into him. Then, another message popped up.

Glory M: [Really sorry, letโ€™s reschedule for tomorrow during the day!] Esme squinted. He wanted to set up another meeting?

L (Esme): [You better not flake on me like today. Iโ€™m seriously pissed!]

Glory M: [No way. Iโ€™m really sorry about today! Tomorrow, Iโ€™ll bring that rare ginseng to our meeting! But if youโ€™re too mad to see me, then forget it. I wonโ€™t waste your time!]

Esme frowned. Heโ€™d bring the rare ginseng straight to her? Seeing this message, she couldnโ€™t care less about today. She was dying to get that rare ginseng!

L (Esme): [Alright! Tomorrow at noon, same place!]

Sheโ€™d give him one more chance. If he bailed again, sheโ€™d send someone to find him in Lisbon, chop him up, and feed him to the sharks! If he dared to mess with her, he was dead!

Esme got up and walked out. As she stepped out of the private room, Elizabeth also came out. Elizabeth had a lollipop in her mouth, asking, โ€œMs. Russell, what a coincidence. Youโ€™re done?โ€ She glanced toward Esmeโ€™s side. Esme immediately moved to block her view. Elizabeth squinted, noticing Esmeโ€™s face was ashen, clearly indicating she was angry. But in front of Elizabeth, she couldnโ€™t show her anger. She smoothed her hair and raised her eyebrows, replying, โ€œYeah, Iโ€™m done!โ€

โ€œDid you meet Glory M?โ€ Elizabeth asked, grinning like she was dying to see the big shot herself. Esme shoved Elizabeth away, blocking her from the private room. If Elizabeth found out she hadnโ€™t met Glory M and had waited alone for almost five hours, sheโ€™d never hear the end of it! No way was she giving her that satisfaction.

โ€œOf course, I met him! Donโ€™t bother looking, Glory Mโ€™s already gone,โ€ Esme said, puffing up.

Elizabeth pouted, looking bummed. โ€œWhat a shame.โ€

โ€œGlory M isnโ€™t someone just anyone can meet!โ€ Esme strutted out. Elizabeth tagged along, eyes full of curiosity. โ€œMs. Russell, is Glory M really a guy?โ€

Esme froze. How would she know if Glory M was a guy or a girl? Sheโ€™d heard he was a guy!

โ€œYeah,โ€ she blurted out.

Elizabeth stifled a laugh. โ€œReally? I heard Glory M was a woman. Rumors, huh?โ€

Esme shot her a look. Wasnโ€™t Elizabeth usually the quiet type? What was up with her today? Her chatter was driving Esme nuts!

โ€œIโ€™m outta here!โ€ Esme stormed off.

Elizabeth couldnโ€™t help but giggle. โ€œMs. Russell, why do I get the feeling youโ€™re upset? Didnโ€™t meet Glory M and just faking it, huh?โ€

Esme spun around and snapped, โ€œElizabeth, youโ€™re just jealous! Better think of a decent gift for Lily so you donโ€™t look cheap!โ€ With that, she stormed off without a backward glance. Elizabeth stood there, chuckling. She glanced at her phone, a smirk playing on her lips. Tomorrow at noon, sheโ€™d definitely pay Esme a visit.
