CHAPTER 49: BIRTHDAY BANQUET 5

What she didn’t know was that many people had been keeping an eye on her and the second she left, others also followed behind with the excuse of going to touch up their makeup.

Elektra found an empty cubicle, locked it, and settled her business there. When she was done, she was at ease and she walked out after straightening her clothes.
When she got out of the toilet, she found several ladies retouching their makeup which looked like a rouse since there was nothing that needed touching there.

Elektra didn’t talk to them but simply washed her hands as hygiene was very important.

“Some people are just too shameless! Clinging onto a man who already has someone and flaunting around as if they are worth it! If it was me, I would have hung myself already!” a young lady wearing a sexy black dress sneered as her words were directed towards Elektra who was about to leave.

“Only ugly people hide behind veils! If she isn't ashamed of herself, why can’t she show her face already?”

Elektra truly didn’t want to cause trouble or entertain others but what she really hated the most was to be called ugly. How can she be ugly?

Elektra who was about to go out, turned around and this action was seen by the girls and since they were daring enough to do this, they were ready to confront her and teach her a lesson.

Elektra chuckled as she looked at these kids who reminded her of her previous self. Back then she was also like this, when she was jealous, she would cause a tantrum and act like a tyrant and yet, in the end, she died.

“Before you open your mouth, you should first reconsider whether you can afford the consequences of provoking me! I am not your friend and I literally don’t care about any of you, so if I hear one more word coming out of your mouths, I will make you regret it!” Elektra slowly threatened as her gaze coldly kiss everyone who had been mocking her earlier.

“Tch…tch……you think just because you are married to Kasper you can flaunt your authority like this? How can you be a bully?” a familiar voice yelled at her and Elektra who didn’t think that she will hear this from this person was shocked for a second before turning around to look at this person.

Hartley had been dying of jealousy for hours, after arriving at the venue, her intestines nearly came out. How can Elektra afford such a place?

She was a child from a rich family and she knows how difficult it is to book a room at this hotel. Hartley was very upset and she hated Elektra to the bone. Seeing so many famous people coming for the banquet, Hartley couldn’t take it anymore.

But when she saw that the sugar daddy that Elektra had been flaunting for a while now was Kasper Murray, she felt as if she had been deceived and her hate meter rose to the highest.

She didn’t find time to talk to Elektra and to make it worst, she and Elektra had not been talking for a while so she was too embarrassed to go and talk to the other but when she overheard Elektra threatening the girls, she was so angry she decided to seek justice.

Hartley didn’t even care that she didn’t hear what the girls said before she arrived, to her it was okay as long as she teaches Elektra a lesson. She arrogantly looked at Elektra with a provoking gaze.

She firmly believes that Elektra will not do anything to her since she has a reputation to hold but she thought wrong. It was on this night that she learnt that Elektra was not a sheep that anyone can bully. Elektra had not been taking her seriously before and it made her so angry she nearly coughed out blood.

Elektra glared at Hartley and she was emitting a cold aura that scared everyone in the restroom, “Hartley as someone who has been my friend for a while, I will give you some face and give you one last warning. If you do something crazy like this again, I will make you regret knowing me. I don’t care about what you say about me anywhere but don’t you ever talk about my husband like that again!”

Hartley was so shocked hearing this from Elektra, every time they have argued, Elektra never said a word but tonight she……..how can she do that?

“Y……you……………….how can you threaten me like this?” Hartley stammered as she looked nervously at Elektra who didn’t look the same as before.

“Ha ha ha ha, Hartley if I were you, I would disappear right now and go home.
If I see you anywhere near me tonight, I don’t know what I may do to you and that goes to all of you. Before you start condemning others and talk about them, make sure that you don’t want the same to happen to you!” Elektra glared angrily at the group of girls that still didn’t want to admit defeat.

“You………. What can you do?” another girl asked courageously but her hands were sweating at the moment.

Elektra scanned everyone in the room before making her final statement, “I can make your lives a living hell!”

The words were very chilling and no one said a thing or stopped Elektra as she elegantly made her way out of the restroom. Elektra finally joined Kasper and his gang before sitting with Anisha and joining the little girl to have some cake.

The rest of the night was beautiful and Elektra didn’t meet with the girls that made trouble for her which was a huge relief. She met Molly and Faith who told her that Hartley had left and she nodded her head as she didn’t have anything to say about that.

Molly was a bit different and her actions were something that Elektra put to mind. Her carefree friend whom she met a while ago was no longer acting the way she used to know her.

With one glance, Elektra could tell that Molly was seeking connections and the eyes that were looking at her now were filled with greediness and Elektra didn’t want to be friends with someone like that anymore.

She hated shameful people the most and the same went for Faith, she was just too good to be true. Elektra had always felt that Faith was the dangerous one and Hartley the safest as Hartley would always shoot off her mouth all the time making her very predictable.

So, Elektra who had just turned nineteen didn’t mind starting a fresh year with new friends or none at all, as she was too busy to play around with fake people.
