Chapter 150 An Eye For An Eye
At a bar in Jingshi City.
"I just can't wait to learn how Emily met her end this time," said Tina, who was drinking in the bar, as she put on a broad victorious smile on her face, imagining Emily struggling in pain helplessly.
'A girl who has offended me deserves nothing less, ' Tina thought.
She twirled the wine in her glass, with a satisfied look on her face. In just a few minutes, she overindulged in alcohol and ended up getting quite drunk.
A beautiful lady would always be the center of attention in a bar, especially a lady with no man accompanying her. Soon a man walked over, trying to accost Tina.
"Hey, are you here alone?"
"Get lost," Tina blew him off with only two words. The disgust and arrogance in her eyes made the man feel like he was just nothing but trash.
The man was utterly aggrieved by Tina's words, but since he had recognized who the girl was, he didn't dare to say anything back. Instead, he scoffed and whispered,"You'd better pray that your family always keeps its position, or else, I'll have your guts for garters."
However, before he could even finish, he was doused with fine, red wine all of a sudden.
"I said 'get lost'. Didn't you hear me?" Tina exclaimed.
"You! You'd better watch out!" said the man, barely squeezing the words from his teeth. However, since he was afraid of Tina's powerful family, he could do nothing but walk away, with his tail between his legs.
"Trash," Tina murmured, with an arrogant and overconfident look on her face.
After the man left, all the other guests in the bar discovered that the girl who was sitting alone at the bar was Tina Tao. And no one else dared to accost her any more because they didn't want to get in trouble.
In fact, they were more afraid of Tina's family members than her. To be more specific, they were more afraid of her brother Mark, who was extremely protective of his sister.
Although Tina was in a good mood, she got bored after drinking a few more drinks. When she was about to leave, she suddenly heard someone calling her name from behind.
"Ms. Tina, would you like to try some of my cocktails?"
Tina turned round impatiently. The next moment, she froze when she saw the man's face.
His facial structure resembled Jacob's, but not completely.
Tina's instinct kept telling her that this man was not Jacob, but she could not help but walk closer to him. After all, how could she resist the temptation from a man who looked so similar to Jacob?
"Are you a bartender in this bar? What's your name?" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
"Yes, Ms. Tina, my name is Leon," the man answered, as he started to mix the drinks for her. Tina was completely attracted by his agile and proficient move when he was shaking the glass with his slender fingers.
"Leon?" Tina laughed,"Am I in a movie?"
"Actually I aspire to be movie star one day."
Tina grinned, and directly asked the man,"I really like your face. I'd like to give you something for your face. Tell me what do you want? I am willing to give you a gift since I am in a good mood."
"There's no need. I have always admired you, Ms. Tina," said Leon. As he gracefully put the cocktail glass before Tina, he continued,"I just wanted to have your attention."
"Sweet words..." Tina grabbed the glass and took a sip; seeming even more drunk, she continued,"I like them."
In truth, she was quite pleased, not because of Leon, but because those words were spoken out from a man who looked very similar to Jacob in appearance.
She realized that she was somewhat drunk, and not just because of the alcohol.
Tina was aware that the man must have had ulterior motives when he accosted her. She knew that it would do her good to stay away from him, but she just couldn't control herself.
As a girl who always got what she wanted, she had no intentions of exercising her controls any time soon.
However, the pleasant moment between Tina and Leon was rudely interrupted when a girl called out Leon's name all of a sudden.
"Leon, the guest at the bar is asking for his drink." Displeased, Tina turned her head, and saw a waitress running towards them with light steps, as if she were a rabbit. She even made a face and stuck out her tongue at Leon.
Leon shrugged and replied,"Okay, I'll be there soon."
Tina's face darkened. Somehow this girl reminded her of Emily. 'You're just pretending to be adorable and innocent!' she cursed in her mind.
Annoyed, Tina snorted and then doused her drink all over the waitress.
"Oh!" The girl was stunned, as her face got completely soaked in the sugary liquid. Baffled and aggrieved, she looked at Tina and asked,"Why did you do that?"
"Because you're making too much noise," replied Tina arrogantly.
The girl bit her lips and looked around. And she discovered that, even though there were many "annoying" people in the bar who were making more noise than she was, Tina had poured the drink on her deliberately.
When Leon pulled the girl back to his side, Tina found that there was no more smile on his face. "There's just no need for you to behave like that, Ms. Tina. She didn't do anything that offended you," he said.
"So you are trying to protect her?" Tina was really put off by his words. Although he looked like Jacob, Tina felt that she was fed up with him at this moment. Then Tina said,"You are not him after all. Your face makes me sick!"
Leon's expression darkened as he slowly clenched his fists.
Tina took out some money and randomly threw it on the bar counter. With contempt and resentment in her eyes, she said,"Tips for you. After all, you made me laugh for a few minutes."
Then she turned round and walked away.
"Wow, that's just insulting," a guest whispered.
"That spoiled girl always does whatever she wants to do!" another guest said.
"She's rich and powerful unlike the rest of us. I wonder if she is fond of pouring wine on other people's faces. If she gives money to everyone she pours her drinks on, I'd like to have a try."
While the guests were still whispering to each other in the bar, Tina was already on her way to the parking lot. However, she didn't notice that she was being followed by a man in black coat.
When Tina was about to get in her car, she was caught by the man from behind. The next minute, her face was covered with a wet handkerchief.
Soon a pungent odor filled her nose, and then her lungs. In an instant, she passed out.
It was getting dark, but Tina still hadn't returned home. Failing to get any response from her after calling her phone many times, Mark suddenly had a bad feeling in his gut.
Without wasting another second, he quickly ordered his men to search the city for Tina. Before long, one of his informants told him that Tina was last seen with Jacob.
Coincidentally, when Mark first suspected that Tina was missing, the first person he thought of was Jacob. It turned out he was right. Soon, he was on his way to Jacob's mansion. However, when he arrived there, he found that he was too late.
Mark saw his sister lying on the ground, unconscious. Tina's eyes were shut tight and her eyebrows were furrowed, as if she were suffering from something terrible and miserable.
Mark ran towards Tina and gritted his teeth in anger because of what Jacob had done to his beloved sister.
"Jacob! How dare you!" he screamed out in rage.
"Consider this as retribution. Since, she was brave enough to try to kill Emily, I gave her a taste of her own medicine,"
Jacob sneered, and with a malicious smile hanging on his lips, he continued,"I told you to teach her to be polite."
Mark glared at Jacob; his finger bled from clenching his fists too tightly. Driven mad with rage, he cried out,"Jacob, I'm gonna kill you!"
As his favorite sister and the apple of his eye, Tina always lived a comfortable life and was spoiled by him. However, ever since she encountered Jacob, this man had brought nothing but misery and despair to her life. Mark couldn't bear witness to her suffering anymore.
'Jacob, you are dead!' he cursed.
