Kim Tae-ri’s POV

It had been three weeks.

I’m waiting for Miss Key, our senior bartender, to finish the cocktails I’m about to serve here at SIGA. "Can you carry a bucket of beer and two Bloody Marys by yourself?" She wonders.

I gave a nod in agreement. "Over there, it's for Don Juan." She pointed to the far right. "Just bring the beverages and leave the rest to Reece." 

I nodded again. "Thanks." I held the tray with the two Bloody Marys in one hand and the bucket in the other.

"Why are you here?" Don Juan asked Reece as I reached the table where he was seated. "I want Sinyeo!"

Pffft! So I’m not the only one who dislikes cheap a$$e$.

Don Juan is the youngest son of the Dirhams, one of the Philippines' wealthiest and most influential families. He is in his early twenties, with a great physique and keen facial features. He comes here often since he doesn't have many obligations due to his social position. I could see him two to three times a week.

He is completely smitten with Sinyeo. Whenever Sinyeo attends to anybody other than him, he makes a scene. He even occasionally brings Sinyeo a flower bouquet! Possessive much?

Reece was assigned to Sinyeo since he's currently tending to someone else. Reece is well, okay? But, ew. 

Oh, Sinyeo is the most sought-after entertainer here in SIGA. His allure captivates the attention of practically every male in the room, including the ladies. He has the right shade of rose-colored hair and the ideal petite body type. He has those enticing grayish-blue bedroom eyes that could easily drown any of his victims. Even me, I get mesmerized every time I see him. I wish I were that beautiful. 

Although Don Juan is already a well-known figure, there are still a number of higher-ranking guests  who require the assistance of Sinyeo.

I arrived and proceeded to the table to put the drinks down.

"I’m hurt. I may not be as pretty as Sinyeo, but I could play with you more than he could," Reece entices. 

Yuck! 

I've just got goosebumps creeping all over my body. 

I saw Reece glancing over at me, and I responded by looking disgusted. I acted like I was puking. 

He formed his hands into the fuck you sign subtly, only enough for me to see. After I chuckled mockingly, I focused on arranging the drinks properly on the table.

"Get off me. I prefer quality over quantity." Don Juan resisted as he pushed Reece’s hands away from him over his body. I could see it from my peripheral view. 

"Pfft." 

I paused. My eyes slowly widened. 

OH MY GOSH. 

Did I just snort out loud? 

It’s okay; I’m sure they didn’t hear it. 

"Hey, you," Don Juan called.

I scrunch my face. 

Maybe it’s not me who he is calling, right?

"You’re not gonna look here?" Don Juan says, with menace in his voice.

AAHHHH!! It's me! It's me!

Fuck, Tae-ri, look at what you have done! You just couldn't hold it in and waited until you were a few steps away?! AHH!! 

I instantly turned to face him, straightened my stance, and bowed. "I’m sorry, sir." 

"Come here," he instructed me. 

Ahhhhhh! What does he want?!

Now, it’s Reece’s turn to get revenge. I saw him mouth, “Ohohoho, you’re doomed, bitch!” 

I scrunched my face and rolled my eyes at him.

I inched closer to Don Juan and stood up straight, avoiding direct eye contact. It had been quiet for a few seconds, so I turned to find him staring at me from head to toe. When he saw my eyes on him, he motioned for me to sit next to him. He looked pissed.

I complied. After all, I'm the one to blame for this mess.

When I got close, he shoved Reece aggressively in my direction. "I have no use for this. Find Sinyeo and bring him to me right away."  While I was assisting Reece in standing, he swept his keen gaze over us.

"Don’t touch me, bitch. I can leave here by myself."  Reece shoved my hands away from him and rolled his eyes at me while walking away.

Ugh. The ingratitude of this biatch is astounding.

But, what this bastard of a Don Juan did is wrong. Does he think he's royalty because of daddy’s money?

"Please accept my apologies, sir. I cannot do that. Sinyeo Sunbae-nim is attending an important meeting right now. And try not to be too rough on the staff."  I bowed to him, suppressing my annoyance. 

"What's more important than me ?" The sound of his teeth gnashing told me he was angry.

What, you expect me to give in? HUH! I can even win against Reece, AKA the most annoying person in the world ever. 

 "That's not what I mea-"

He grabbed my arms out of nowhere and drew me very close to him.

You really want to keep me entertained, huh? Rage filled his voice as he spoke in my ear. I was taken aback by the unexpected pressure that was applied to my butt. I looked behind and saw it was Don Juan’s hand.

I was too taken aback to even attempt to respond.
