Chapter 439: Jack Of All Trades
Daryl heaved a long sigh as he entered the disco bar and again saw Kenzie drinking alone. He had already done a lot of research on the woman and found out she would end up drinking everyday ever since the day the arranged marriage with Liam was turned down.
Daryl shook his head as he watched Kenzie dancing with others in her sexy outfit. If Kenzie continued doing what she was doing she might end up getting hurt seeing the number of people eyeing her beauty.
Soon Kenzie felt tired and staggered her drunk body in the direction of the bar where he was also sitting.
"Give me one more shot of tequila!" she yelled while she was dancing to the beat of the music. She saw Daryl sitting on a stool. She glared at him fiercely and exclaimed, "You again?! Are you stalking me huh?"
Daryl looked at her with a smile and said, "Close to that I guess. I told you I need you…"
"Woah… So brazen! Okay, I will give you a chance. Stay close to me and be by my side and just do whatever I want. Then I will decide if I should help you out or not." Kenzie playfully stated with an evil grin.
Daryl watched her go back to the dance floor and dance like it was her own home floor.
"That girl is so opposite to Liam's taste. It's a good thing Liam did not agree with this arranged marriage. She's a real pain in the ass." Daryl muttered as he gulped down his glass of brandy readying himself for the coming test.
It was the third time that he was meeting the woman. The first time was when he handled her on behalf of Liam and what he received from her was a threat that she would make sure that Sy law firm would end up in a pit soon. The second time was when he asked for an appointment with her and she agreed to meet him in a bar like this.
The third time was him tailing her and she neglecting him treating him like air. If only those clients they lost were not very important ones and had Liam not given him the challenge of gaining them back to get a double promotion. He needed to persuade Kenzie since she was the only weakness of Mr. Chua. One word from his beloved daughter and the clients they lost would come back in no time.
'Look at her bouncing on the floor swaying her hips left and right!' he mumbled as he kept his eyes on her. She was surrounded by men and his expressions changed when he saw her trying to push a rowdy looking man who kept on getting near her.
"Damn!" Daryl hissed as he quickly went towards Kenzie's direction. She was now making a fuss punching the man to throw him away.
"What the heck!" he muttered as he quickly grabbed the man's wrist who was about to hit Kenzie.
"You don't hit a woman but love them you asshole…" Daryl grunted as he punched the man who instantly fell down.
He grabbed Kenzie's wrist and pulled her out of the bar forcefully and pushed her inside his car.
"What is wrong with you? Are you nuts? Didn't you see how huge was that man you were punching down? He could easily crush you to a pulp!" Daryl scolded! His heart was slamming in his chest. Just the mere thought of seeing a man hit a woman like that made his stomach crunch.
"I want to drink more, drive me to where I can drink in silence," Kenzie instructed as if he was her chauffeur.
Daryl's face twitched but he decided to zip his lips since he had to put up with her. He drove to the nearest hotel with a bar.
He followed her inside and watched Kenzie get drunk to her heart's content.
"I can't believe that he can dump me like that?! I mean that woman left him for a whole year? She left him to suffer alone! And he still chose her? And that too when she left without a word and didn't contact him even once while she was away?
Did that make any sense to you at all?! How could he dump a good offer with an excellent package of a perfect woman like me over?someone who left him behind like he was something no longer has any use to her?!" Kenzie threw harsh words at him in her drunken voice.
"Tell me? Aren't I more pretty than his ex?" she added with eyes intently staring at Daryl.
"So you're saying you like Liam for real? Or you're like that because he trampled on your pride?"
Kenzie pouted her lips and cried, "Both!"
"You see… I adored Liam Sy the moment I laid eyes on him. Do I have a dearth of men chasing after me? I'm Kenzie Chua! An heiress!"
Daryl scratched his head and ended up drinking a little more as he silently listened to Kenzie's nonsensical whimper. Obviously, the woman was a spoiled brat who couldn't accept defeat.
"Did Liam send you to convince me to ask my father to talk to his friends and cancel the pull-out?" Kenzie asked with lifted brows.
"No. I acted on my own since I want a promotion." Daryl honestly mumbled.
"Oh, I see. And what makes you think you can convince me, huh? Do you think I, Kenzie Chua will ever change my mind? You see only Liam can do that." Kenzie scorned.
Daryl chuckled since he also was already drunk.
"Erase Liam from your mind since that man is already taken. You see… He's head over heels and madly in love with his ex-wife and now that Lana is back… No one will ever get a chance to hit on Liam anymore. It's just impossible." Daryl snorted.
"You see I'm willing to do what you want just make sure to bring back those clients in our firm." Daryl offered with a grin.
"You?! And what use do you have to me huh?!" Kenzie uttered with a scornful laugh.
"You… I'm a jack of all trades so I can basically do anything you want except for indulging in illegal matters and things of course." Daryl boasted.
Kenzie looked at him scanning him from head to toe with a mischievous smile.
"What?" Daryl murmured. His face turned red with embarrassment. For some reason, Kenzie's meaningful stare was making him uncomfortable.
"You say you will do anything right?" she reassured with a lingering mischievous smile on her face.
"Yeah… As long as you will not tell me to harm anyone." Daryl clarified, seeing the evil smirk on the woman's beautiful face.
'What the heck is inside this woman's head?' he mused with a twitched mouth.
