His Purchased Wife

Chapter 34.

I unlocked the pendant from my neck. "This is the original design I took inspiration from. My

grandfather made it for my mom. You can read it in his memoir, it is available on the internet under his Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

name. The design is not available due to copyright as he wanted the design to be his legacy. But a

rough description of the design is available."

"It means she stole it from someone else!" Evelyn pointed out.

"That's my legacy, given to me by my grandfather and my mother. I am the owner of it and an owner

does not steal from itself Miss Evelyn." I snapped.

Alexandrios stood up with the microphone in his hand. "It's not easy for us to decide here as both

parties define the description beautifully. I know it's not fair to other contestants but it's a special case

we have. So today we all are going to study the design and decide the real culprit here. After that we

will continue the second round."

Everyone in the auditorium nodded. "In the meantime, Miss Kings, we need your necklace to study it to

make our decision. So you have to submit it to us for today."

I nodded and handed my necklace to Alexandrios. "Please take care of It. This is very precious to me.

It's my mom's last gift for me…"

He gave me a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, Miss Kings. I will take care of it as if it's my own."

"Alright, contestants. You have a day off. You all can enjoy the weather for today as the judges will be

busy handling the case at their hands. Enjoy the cruise because tomorrow the contest will start again

and we are going to choose our three finalists."

We all walked out the auditorium. I was angry and irritated over the situation. Susan and Emily followed

me. "I am so sorry, Aurora. I swear I didn't leave the box even for a second. I don't know how they

managed to steal it from us." Emily said in a low voice. I patted her hand in assurance.

"It's not your fault, Em," I assured her and she gave me a hug.

"So the loser is hugging goodbye…" George and Evelyn came to us. I turned towards them.

"Oh no! You both are not going anywhere that easily because once the design proved mine I will not

leave you both. I will take you both to every court in the country and won't stop until you both rot in jail.

And what did you call me, yes! A rich brat. Just wait, miss Evelyn Rodriguez because this rich brat will

show you what she could do or what my dad will do to both of you when I tell him about this incident."

"You bitch…" Evelyn took a step in my direction while George held her back.

"Let's go girls," I said and we walked away from those thieves.

"Aurora, calm down. Tomorrow everything will be fine and you know what, let's go to the bar area and

lets get wasted to forget today," Susan said and Emily agreed with her.

"No, I am not in the mood."

"Oh cmon girl!"

After a lot of persuasion I accepted going to the bar area to get drunk. And by God! The atmosphere

took my breath away. Neon lights were making our skin blue and green, loud music was a treat to my

ears.

"Let's forget the sh***y day!" Emily yells over the high beat music.

And I smiled, letting myself loose in the world of music and liquor as Emily bought another glass of

vodka.

"Let's have a bet," Susan slurred.

I frowned. "What bet?"

"Leave bet, is that Alexandrios?" Emily asked, pointing her finger towards the entry gate.

"Wow! He looks edible!" Susan whisteled, Emily turned her head towards Susan, growled and she

gave her a middle finger.

My mood got bad again seeing one of the judges here. "I am going to my cabin. You both enjoy it."

"Hey, why would you leave? You are not going anywhere. And you know what, behave as if we didn't

see him. I won't even call him here," Emily said as she ordered the waiter two bottles of vodka.

Alexandrios slanted his eyes to Emily but she just ignored him. Plain and simple ignored! Alexandrios

raised a brow at the show of Emily's ignoring him. He walked to the opposite of our seat and sat down,

ordered himself a drink and when he had one in his hand. He mocked Emily a salute by raising the

glass slightly in the air and then taking a sip from it.

"That man!" Emily gritted out. She slanted her eyes to Susan. "Fill me a glass of Vodka!"

"Okay!" Susan opened the bottle and gave her a glass of It. "Em, you should not be drinking this

much!" I told her as I was worried.

She ignored me totally and made another glass and placed it in front of me. "Let's get wasted tonight!"

"No, I already had three glasses. I won't be able to handle it."

"Oh come on! Drink it, Aurora…" Emily shouted as Susan held my face and almost poured the fourth

glass of Vodka in my mouth.

And then I lost count how many drinks I had.

"Wow! I want to dance!" I slurred going to the Dance floor with Emily and Susan who both are drunk

like me.

Suddenly Alxandrios came to the dance floor and grabbed Emily by the waist, turned her towards him

and nodded at me and Susan then out of nowhere he picked Emily in his arms and walked away with

Emily beating his back with her fists and cursing him.

"What the hell was that?" I asked, astounded.

"Em, is going to have a wild night ahead! Fuck, I need someone tonight."

I looked at her and giggled. "Really I want someone to. Any willing fucker here?" I shouted.

Susan giggled and then walked to a blonde man. She whispered something in his ear then she turned

towards me, waved her fingers and left with that blonde man with his hand pinching her butt.

And I was left alone here, again lonely!
