Chapter 130: 130. Background Check.

The sky darkened until night fell upon the city, but that did nothing to dim the city, for it looked more magnificent in the night. And it was a splendid sight, from the top floor of the grandeur mansion. An architectural wonder that houses all the most exquisite and fancy businesses. Right now Patricia enjoyed this view from the Mace restaurant a seven star establishment she loved to frequent. It was the only place that wouldn't bend to her will and power. She didn't have the power to send out other customers when she ate her, and for that reason alone she liked it. She was born with a lot, some might call it a head start but she always thought it was already the like she was standing at the end of the race. She had power to get anything and everything and she did. So when she came across people that didn't cower before her she either really hated them or really loved them. Like this restaurant right now, and oddly Jason was slowly crawling to the other side of this spectrum. She hated him right? Why was he getting more and more under her skin these days? She sighed and looked away from the glass wall that covered the side of the restaurant. 

Looking straight she saw a familiar silhouette 

"Lenora Han?" Patricia called out to the woman sitting before her.

Lenora turned around and her eyes widened as she saw Patricia. She hoped she seemed sincere, her acting skills were pretty good but she couldn't be too sure with Patricia. 

"Fancy meeting you here Miss Lee." Lenora smiled at her.

"Why don't you join me, you don't seem like you brought a date either." Patricia offered. 

"Are you sure? You seem like you want to be alone." Lenora asked, never accept an offer too quickly, leaves room for doubt.

"If I wanted to be alone I wouldn't have asked you to join me." She said bluntly. 

Lenora gave her a tight smile and quickly agreed, before her pride made her take back her offer. She needed to go to that ball. And befriending Patricia was her ticket to both covering the event and attending as well.

Lenora gestured to the waiter who pulled the sit aside for her. "How about some wine?" 

Patricia gestured to the one she was nursing and Lenora shook her head. "A new bottle, if I'm joining you we should share the same bottle don't you think?" 

"Fine how about another bottle of red wine." Patricia said to the waiter. "Do you not want red wine?" She asked when she saw Lenora stiff expression. 

"I'm more of a white wine person." She replied.

"Well I prefer red wines." Patricia retorted. 

Lenora frowned. "How can you prefer red wines? It not only stains your teeth but it not as healthy." She snorted.

"Really, that's just a coward's point of view, and besides it takes skill and elegance to drink red wine without stains." Patricia said. 

"Really? I'd just say it a lot of experience." Lenora gave her a tight smile.

"Experience? Are you trying to say I drink too much?" Patricia scoffed.

"Well I'm I wrong? Not that there's anything wrong with it." She shrugged. 

"Ladies, how about you settle for a Rose' it's neither white nor red, I'm sure you'll enjoy it." The waiter said before they could start hurling actual insults. 

"Fine." The said simultaneously.

"This is all your fault, share the same bottle of wine? Tch." Patricia scoffed.

"Don't forget to thank me when you love it." Lenora scoffed as well.

As Patricia opened her mouth to reply, her phone began to ring. "Excuse me, Riley?"

"What is that supposed to mean? I hired you because you are the best or by chance did I make a mistake?"

"I said the venue and theme are changing, I don't care about the cost, do whatever you want with the decorations and arrangements you already got. Just change it!" She said forcefully.

"No you cannot see the venue, I don't know. I guess I'll take pictures and send them to you. Wait a minute... didn't I already send you the head servants number? Use it, don't fuss over useless details. Make this work or you'll regret it." She threatened cutting the call.

"Party troubles?" Lenora asked.

"Something like that, I'm planning a ball." Patricia stated. 

"Ah... that's strange." She mumbled. 

"What's strange?" Patricia asked.

"No... it's just it's strange your planning a ball and Jason Kang is throwing one as well. Unless... oh my goodness, is he the fiance you spoke about on television? I've always been curious about that." She said with the look of subtle shock on her face. 

Patricia features suddenly became serious. "Is that a joke? Do you really expect me to believe you just pieced that together just now?" She asked leaning towards the table and placing her jaw on her palm.

Lenora smiled at her, refusing to be intimidated. "Alright you caught me." She said leaning backwards and crossing her arms. "So I did a little background check on you, are you going to be a baby about it?" She shrugged. 

Patricia gave her a wicked smile. "Not a lot of people would dare call me a baby." She said emphasising the last word.

"Hmm well I'm not a lot of people." Lenora returned the smile. "Besides it not as if your engagement with Jason Kang is one big secret, all that remains is officially announcing it."

"So did you also stalk me here? I've been coming here for years and I've never run into you before." Patricia asked.

Lenora smirked, "can't I enjoy a quiet steak? I only recently heard about this place, it was a coincidence." She lied. Of course it wasn't, the food here was not to her liking at all. Why the hell people came here she had no idea.

"Oh? I expected that to be the reporter in you." Patricia stated bluntly. 

Lenora brows rose, she knew?

"Um neither, I don't care much for looks, I mean again it doesn't benefit me directly. And he doesn't need to have money, I already have that. I like a man that's exquisite in bed"
