Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 52

She Could Have Anything But His Love 

Austyn closed his eyes. Drive me there.” 

“Yes, Boc 

Twenty minutes later, the Hummer pulled up outside the karaoke lounge, but Austyn made no move to get out of the car. 

“Um, Boss,” Kai twisted in his seat to look at his boss. ‘We’re here.‘ 

Austyn made a sound in his throat, but he remained motionless. 

‘Come on!‘ Kai said to himself. ‘Let’s get a move on! I’m going to get a ticket soon!‘ 

But he dared not rush his boss. 

Instead, he asked, ‘Are you here to see Paul?” 

Austyn finally opened his eyes. 

He glanced at the brightly lit entrance of the lounge. “Kira’s here.” 

‘I see. Kai said. 

The conscientious assistant was about to ask if Austyn was here to pick up his wife, but he recalled the dressing–down he got the last time he made that suggestion. 

So he ventured, ‘Would you like me to go inside to fetch Young Madam? 

Austyn pondered the idea. 

Kira was with her colleagues now. 

Kai’s appearance would cause a stir. 

Austyn shook his head. ‘Just give her a call.” 

“Yes, Boss.” 

Kai dialled Kira’s number. 

When it was finally picked up, the assistant was assaulted by a din. 

Dama Il You to And Damned if You Don’t 

Damned If You Do And Damned If You Don’t 

‘Hello! Who is this! Kira shouted above the caterwauling of a colleague’s ‘Club Can’t Handle Me.” 

“Young Madam! It’s me!” Kai shouted back. 

Kira didn’t speak 

Kai winced as he listened to one of his favourite songs get butchered, but he couldn’t help tapping a foot to the rhythm. 

Kira seemed to be moving away from the singer. 

She whispered into the phone, ‘Oh, hello, Mr Scott. What’s the matter?” 

“We’re outside Sam Palace right now,‘ Kai said. ‘Me and the boss. You can come out now.” 

“No!‘ Kira whisper–shouted. ‘I’m busy! You guys go home first!” 

“What are you busy with?” 

Ruining more of the century’s greatest hits? 

Kira sounded like she was in tears. “You have no idea how much I’ve lost today! These guys are brutal! They took me to the cleaners! I’m not leaving until I recoup my losses!” 

“Young Ma-‘ 

Beep beep. 

Kira hung up. 

The assistant stared at his phone. 

A minute later, he turned around to look at Austyn. ‘Boss, Young Madam says she’s not leaving till she wins back all the money she lost.” 

‘Still gambling!‘ Austyn huffed.
