Standing Right Next To You - Chapter 424

‘No man can resist my temptation.’ Rita, the waitress smirked when she saw how she was so close to making Manager Lang one among the slaves who knelt before her, slaves to their desires and their lust.

However, just as her lips were about to land on the man’s, she felt nothing.

Her soft lips were puckered and ready to be pressed against the man’s lips but sadly, all she was kissing right now was the air.

Manager Lang had effortlessly scooted his seat behind and thanks to the wheels on it, he did not have to exert any pressure as well.

The view before him was of the woman whose one knee was on the table as though she was trying to climb on top while her hands were supporting her weight on the table as she leaned forward.

Her lips were puckered but her eyes were wide open in shock at his obvious rejection of her advances.

“Did you seriously think that would work, Miss Rita?” Manager Lang questioned, a tinge of mockery and contempt evident in his tone.

This made Rita’s cheeks flush in embarrassment as her tricks had been uncovered by this man who seemed unaffected by her charm and her sly methods of getting closer to him.

“Especially when you appear like this?” He added while lifting his finger and pointed towards her face then brought the finger down to her thighs.

As Rita was too busy trying to save her job until now, she had failed to notice that the product of her earlier exercise was visible for everyone to see.

When she glanced down, she caught sight of the line of thick, viscous, white liquid that had flown down the length of her thighs.

In her attempt to enamor the earlier gentleman she had slept with last night, she had left her panties along with her phone number on the bedside table for when he would come out of the bathroom.

Hence, right now, she was going commando which meant that the thick liquid that had been inside her womb until now was leaking out.

Manager Lang who had noticed this when she first raised her leg to climb on the table felt irked that she might stain his precious table.

‘Not that I care who she sleeps with, just don’t try to sleep with me when you haven’t even washed up properly.’ He sneered at the woman who hastily took a step away just before the liquid could drip on his table.

This brought a sigh of relief out from him which she had caught as well.

If his speculations were right then Rita was just coming out from one of the guest’s rooms.

This only proved that she had been engaging in sexual relations with their guests which was strictly prohibited for the staff.

‘Another reason to fire her.’ He surmised as she had already passed the threshold of his tolerance.

First, she tried to seduce Mr. Ming then she just tried to seduce him.

If all of this was not enough grounds for getting fired, he had just found evidence that she slept with another guest who had not resisted her advances like Mr. Ming and him.

He did not care if the guest was the one who made the first move or if she had done so, what mattered to him was that his hotel’s reputation would be tainted if word about this ever got out.

‘I do not run a motel here where people only come to sleep with women!’ He sneered at the thought of getting a bad reputation while he was still in charge of running the place.

Therefore, Rita’s own actions had now strengthened his resolve to send her far away from this establishment.

“Miss Rita, effective immediately, you have been dismissed from your position as a waitress.” He announced clearly on the off chance that she would try to pull some other tricks once again.

Rita stood rooted on the same spot, wide-eyed and stunned that she had lost her job and also failed in her attempts to seduce him.

“You may fetch your last paycheck before you leave this hotel.” He reminded the woman as he strode towards the door, holding it open for her to leave immediately.

The Deputy Manager had been waiting right outside so he had heard the last statement that his superior had made.

This made him call the finance and HR department to prepare everything needed for dismissing the waitress who walked out of the room with her shoulders slumped.

Both Manager Lang and his Deputy did not look at her but made sure to ask a security guard to escort her outside the building once she had finished her work at the HR department.

Once he had completed his task, Manager Lang sent a quick text to Mr. Ming to inform him of its completion after which he looked at the security footage to make sure that she left without causing any scenes.

None of the other employees were aware of Rita’s dismissal as they were all busy at work.

The two managers and the security guard who was escorting her along with the people dealing with her dismissal were the only ones who heard the news.

Just recently she had failed to seduce Master Ming which was a big blow for Rita and today once again she had failed.

Her confidence was at an all time low as she accepted her paycheck before the guard led her towards the exit of the hotel.

The guard watched as Rita left the building without causing a ruckus then turned around to inform his Boss of the same.

The Manager too had logged off the security footage and hence had not seen what was taking place before the hotel.

Rita stood with her handbag in one hand and the other gripped the paycheck that she had received.

Her eyes were burning with tears of embarrassment and even shame for what she had just experienced.

She was well aware that what she did was wrong but she needed to make a living somehow.

The men who all slept with her never made a fuss and willingly gave her money, clothes and one had even gifted her the apartment where she lived right now.

However, twice she had been rejected by men and these two men, Master Ming and Manager Lang, had cost her this high-paying job.

Though she was a slacker at her job, she found many men who were interested in her and sought to pay for her living expenses if she gave them a few special services in the night.

Recalling these men, she remembered the man from last night.

The only man who had treated her well and had even respected her instead of treating her like a piece of meat that had been bought to serve him.

In fact, she had not even received any favors or payment from him for the night that she had spent before she was ever so subtly thrown out of the hotel.

‘I don’t even have his phone number.’ She grimaced as she had left hers on the table but had never asked for his.

Even if he never bothered to contact her she would not lose out on a lot.

However, the thought of never meeting that gentleman again made her frown.

While she was frowning at the paycheck, lost in her thoughts about that man, a car came to a halt before her.

She had been standing on the pavement all along so she only had to look up to see who it was.

“Get in the car, my dear.” A sweet voice was heard as the tinted window of the backseat rolled down.

If Lina and Reuben were here then they would have recognized the middle-aged man who was inviting Rita into his car.

“Hello, Mr. Long.” Rita greeted the man who happened to be one of her frequent patrons.

This was the man whom Lina and Reuben had met when they had first kissed at her Debut banquet.

He was the same man whom she scorned after hearing about him cheating on his wife with the woman with him on that day.

Now, Mr. Long was leering at Rita’s body with lecherous eyes as he unlocked the door of the car.

Rita would just have to take her seat inside and they could drive away to some other place and spend some time alone.

However, today, she was not in her right mind and felt hesitant to enter the car.

“100,000” Mr. Long stated his price when he noticed the reluctance written on her face.

She had been one of his favorites over the years so when he saw her standing desolate on the street before the place where she worked, he had understood what might have taken place.

In his eyes, she was nothing but a woman who would do anything for money and for a major part, he was right in thinking so.

However, the humiliation she faced today made her uneasy and unwilling to enter his car.

“You want more?” Mr. Long sneered when she stood without moving an inch.

Just as he was about to place another bid before her, Rita’s purse vibrated.

Pulling her phone out, she found that it was an unknown number calling her.

“Hello?” She answered with hesitation and a wide smile appeared on her lips when she heard the voice coming from her phone.

“Why did you leave? I was looking for you?” A man’s gentle voice laced with concern was what echoed in her ears.

Rita did not know what took over her but in that moment, she broke down and hot tears flooded her eyes.

“I was fired.” She sniffled and revealed her true emotions which she had never done with any man before today.

When Mr. Long noticed that one of his favorite ladies was busy conversing with some other man, he scoffed at her and asked his driver to leave this place.

The woman on the phone was a sobbing mess and she did not have time to bother about the car that had driven away.

This one decision that she had made today, of not entering the car would turn a life in a whole other direction.

The man on the phone was stunned to hear her cries and got dressed in a hurry before he reached her location to console her.

He hailed a cab for them and decided to take her back to her home to help the woman who was a weeping mess right now.

Rita too, did not hide anything from him and gave him her address while he hugged her tight and rubbed her back.

Her decision to open up her heart to the only man who had treated her with care would be the beginning of her new life.

One without any of the things that might make her lower her head in shame ever again.

Her journey with him had only begun.

Though their journey might not be smooth because of the decisions that she had made in the past, she would certainly find her home in him.
