She Knew She Loved Him(Completed) - Chapter 6:Girls Night Out
Club Zen happened to be one of the most notorious clubs in the area, where the rich and famous came to have a good time.
After his meeting with a few investors from the top construction company in Fort City, Alexander Zi decided to head home.
As soon as he left the parking lot, he received a call from his Australian friend Hunter Brown, asking him to stop by the night club for a few drinks. Feeling tired, he decided to head back to his condo to freshen up before heading there.
When Alex arrived, he went straight to private room seven. Since his friend was the owner, the workers were familiar with him and allowed him to walk right in.
Hunter was talking to a few guests when Alex entered the room. He excused himself and came to greet his long-time buddy.
“Went home for a bit.”
“What’s good mate?” Hunter asked as he pulled a chair to sit at an empty table.
Just as he was about to reply, he noticed two women sitting three tables to their left. One had her back to him and the other was busy chatting with her.
He knew the girl facing him was the heir of Luo Fashions, Sanua Luo. However, Alex had no idea why, but the girl with her back to him seemed oddly familiar.
“You know how things are.” Replied Alex as he sat at the table.
———-
Club Zen stood in the heart of the city, so it took them a while to get there. The atmosphere in the room was already lively when they got there.
“Are we going upstairs to dance later?” Asked Sanua as she took a sip from the strawberry mojito in her hand.
“And if I said no, would you listen to me, your best friend?” The beauty sitting opposite from San replied and they both started laughing.
“What can I say, I need to relieve some stress,” Sanua giggled.
“You can do whatever you want. Just remember I’m driving us back.”
“Yes ma’am!” She saluted Zunnie trying to put on a serious face but failed horribly.
Two hours passed, and Sanua really wanted to head upstairs to dance. Just as she was about to head to the washroom, a loud voice spoke over the noise,
“Everyone the dance floor and bar upstairs are now open. You are free to head up now.”
Most of the guest were waiting to go dancing because as soon as the person made the announcement, they all headed to the door.
To avoid the crowd, Zunnie and Sanua finished their drinks and waited to leave. When most of the people had gone out, they stood up to head upstairs.
As soon as Zunnie turned, she made eye contact with a pair of cold and beautiful amber eyes. She had never seen such fierce looking eyes. She smiled and nodded at the person staring as she walked by.

As the night went on, Alex found himself constantly staring at the girl in black with her back towards him. He was finding it difficult to take his eyes off her; and every time he did, they wandered right back to her.
There was something about her that made him overly curious. Deep down he knew he was not interested because he had no idea who she was or what she looked like. Yet still, he seemed curious as to whether she was the same girl he had seen walking into the condo building he was renting.
After staring at her almost the entire evening, he was starting to think she was most definitely the girl he had seen.
As the night went on, he greeted a few on his business partners who were most of the people in the room. Nonetheless, he couldn’t help but peek in her direction occasionally.
After an hour or so, Hunter went up to make the announcement. Hearing Hunter over the speakers he peeked three tables to his left only to see it was still occupied.
He wondered since when had he become so curious about how someone looked. He had been staring in that direction for most of the night, simply out of curiosity.
Hunter came back to find out if he was going to the dance club upstairs. Alex opened his mouth to decline but stopped when he saw the back he had been peeking at standing up.
He stopped and continued looking at her hoping he would see her face. However, he got more than that when his eyes met hers.
Surprised by her beauty when her deep blue eyes met his, Alex completely forgot he had been speaking with Hunter.
She politely smiled at him showing her perfect white teeth when she walked by and even if she was gone, he could smell the faint yet sweet scent of her perfume.
“What are you smiling at bro?” Hunter erupted his thoughts.
Alex was so dazed he didn’t realize that Hunter had stopped speaking and was now staring at him like he was crazy.
“Nothing,” he replied.
“So, are you coming upstairs or not?”
“Mhm”
Alex along with Hunter and the other guest headed to the dance club on the second floor.
