Tim and Raj joined Roxy and Priscilla at the bar. They didn't delay before heading to the security room for Tim and Raj to see the 'babes', how they called them. They were not disappointed. It took them about one second to start discussing which one of them will hit on Sarah and which one on JoAnna.
Roxy took a chance to snap few photos with her phone. She asked Chuck who works there to zoom in the camera on Jeff. Then she snapped few more photos while giggling. "This is will be for memory."
Priscilla looked at Roxy who was enjoying the feat of having Jeff's photos. "Don't tell me you are in love…"
"He is good looking. But don't think I'm crazy in love." Roxy's tone changed and carried hint of malice. "Getting him to fall for me and to split up with that girl of his will be a perfect revenge. He dares to take away my VIP room? Hmph! He will learn his lesson that in the Spirit Pavilion no one messes with me! I am the boss here!" Roxy is attracted to Jeff, but her desire for revenge is greater. She is insulted that she can't use that room and finds this as a way to release some steam. "Who do they think they are?"
"Why don't you look them up? Now you know their names." Priscilla reminded her.
"Oh, yes. You are right!" Roxy searched for White family on her phone. There wasn't much, but what she saw made her eyes sparkle. "I think I changed my mind…"
Priscilla, Tim and Raj looked at Roxy whose smile was limited only by the fact that she has ears. If not for ears, her head might split open how wide her lips stretched.
Roxy started laughing. "It's not that he is good looking! But he is actually a husband material! Loaded with money and all other good stuff that comes with it!"
"You are kidding! How rich can he be to make you react like this?" Priscilla scooted close to Roxy to see her phone.
"They own White corp. It's billions!" Roxy said as she exhaled.
"Billions?" Priscilla came even closer to the phone. Her eyes were sparkling as well. Maybe she even drooled a little, as corner of her lip became wet.
"White corp.?" Raj frowned. "Are you saying that those people are from White family?"
"Yes!" Roxy exclaimed. "The guys are White brothers! Gold mine! BINGO!"
Roxy and Priscilla excitedly chatted while checking Roxy's phone, ignoring Raj and Tim. And Chuck.
Raj started sweating. "I think I'm out of this. Those babes are not worth me risking my livelihood."
Raj tugged Tim's hand, but Tim jerked his arm away. "What got into you? It's just two babes. We can have fun…"
"You don't have fun with those people" Raj interrupted him.
"What do you know?" Tim scoffed, obviously irritated with Raj's sudden display of cowardice.
Raj was offended that his friend does not believe him. He still tried to explain. "I heard about those guys. My father mentioned White family. They are powerful. You can't touch them."
"Can't touch them? We will see about that!" Tim saw this as a challenge. Also, Roxy and Priscilla are right there! Even if he wanted to back down because of Raj's warning, he can't afford to look weak in front of two women!
Raj made few more attempts to reason with Tim, but he saw that Tim is just getting more stubborn. Eventually, Raj gave up and left the security room. He didn't linger in the club either. He went home. Knowing that Tim and Roxy are working together to mess with Whites, he didn't dare stick around and be implicated.
"What got into him?" Priscilla asked as soon as Raj closed the door behind him.
"Whatever… more for you!" Roxy patted Tim's cheek. "Let's go. The night will not last forever!" Roxy commanded and started walking out.
"What will we do?" Priscilla was following Roxy two steps behind.
"It's a club, party… we start by sending them drinks. To loosen them up a bit." Roxy flashed a malicious smile.
Tim followed behind two girls.
Chuck, the security guy looked after three young people as they left, and he wanted to be included as well. But he was old enough to be their father. And he was not as good looking. And they talked like he does not exist.
At the bar, Roxy called the bartender. "Rob! Prepare four of your signature drinks." She slipped in his hand a small bag.
He glanced and saw four pills inside.
"It's just something mild, to get people relaxed. Nothing to be concerned about." Roxy assured him with a smile.
Rob smiled back and went ahead to make four cocktails. It was not unusual request to add something special in the drink. Him obeying without questions asked only means a larger tip. And everyone is happy.
Roxy called one of the staff members. A lovely looking girl, which she called Ginny. "Ginny, take these drinks up to the main VIP room. Tell them it's from me."
…
Up in the VIP room, two couples chatted happily when Ginny entered. "Excuse me. Miss Carter sent these."
"Carter? How is she related to William?" Jeff asked.
"Roxanne is Boss's sister." Ginny replied politely while arranging cocktails in on the table. Ginny was good at her job, she explained about the drinks, main ingredients and the inspiration behind it.
Sarah looked at the cocktails. They were visually appealing with some powder around the glass edge which Sarah guessed might be sugar. The liquid was a mix of different shades of red. Ice in the drinks had different shapes and it was inviting, nice to look at; one of those drinks which you can appreciate with all of your senses, including sight. But it was an open drink. No matter how good the intentions were, she would not accept them.
JoAnna reached for the glass. Either to take a better look or to taste it. Sarah blocked her hand.
"Excuse me." Sarah called after Ginny who was about to leave the VIP room. "We can't accept these. Please take them back."
Ginny looked surprised for a moment before giving a small nod. It's not uncommon for people to refuse drinks from others. But she was uncomfortable. These were drinks from Miss Roxy. She will not be happy to find out that her kind gesture was refused.
Ginny collected the drinks and JoAnna looked after her with a disappointed look.
"They look nice." JoAnna said softly.
"No matter how good it looks, we don't take it if it's not sealed. No compromises." Sarah reminded her sister after Ginny left.
JoAnna agreed, but her expression showed that she is not happy. She wanted to taste it.
…
Down at the bar, Roxy was talking to Priscilla and Tim. "They don't need to drink it all. One quarter will be fine. In ten minutes, we can head upstairs and introduce ourselves. They will be in good enough mood not to refuse us, no matter what we ask for." Roxy giggled happily.
"How do we know if they had enough to drink?" Priscilla asked, impatience in her voice was obvious.
"In a bit I will go to security room and check. Don't make it sound complicated." Roxy rolled her eyes.
Just as she was about to say something, Roxy froze. Her eyes landed on Ginny returning with a tray while balancing four cocktails on it.
She was frustrated hearing that they returned the drinks without even tasting them.
"Now what?" Priscilla didn't give much time to Roxy to build up anger.
Roxy exhaled sharply through her nose and her eyes narrowed as she looked up toward the VIP room.. "No worries… we go to plan B."
