Around two something in the afternoon the a.s.sistant had received a call from his boss, who seemed to be extremely livid, to search an area for a girl or any sign of her. Shortly after he received an image of a beautiful smiling Asian woman with deep blue eyes, like midnight, and coordinates of a square area. Her gaze looking directly at whoever held the camera with admiration and adoration and a touch of shyness. He and his men had eventually found a beat up wallet, with the woman"s ID, stating her name and address. Miss Dumont, Chang Xie.."Hmm who is this woman that has our boss pursuing her so." He had wondered. Mr Liang had then ordered him to inquire around the area with the Miss Dumont"s ID card and that as soon as he found a lead he was to follow up for further instructions. After an hour he had come upon Canary Sue"s and was then instructed to stay there until she arrived, and that he was to go there every night of necessary until she showed up. He was also instructed to keep all the individual karaoke rooms rented out so that she couldn"t seclude herself in there privately, when she came. Mr. Liang stated his a.s.surance of her arrival there being a "when" not an "if." The a.s.sistant felt most aggrieved and almost wanted to cry at his boss"s inhumane orders, especially as the hours pa.s.sed of him sitting there. He desperately wished the clock would strike two so he could return to the hotel to sleep, but dreaded the next day of doing it again and again until she came, if she came..
After several hours on the first day though she had arrived. Far more ravishing than the ID picture could even begin to capture, she looked like a queen of the night there to capture men"s hearts. When she walked in, many of the men in the giant room had stared openly including himself for a few moments before he caught himself. "No wonder his boss went to such lengths to find this woman." He was dazed several times by her but tried to keep his eyes firmly averted from her exposed flesh in fear of punishment his master would dole out if he knew. The sight of her on the stage and her song was riveting. She had completely captured the souls of everyone in the room, when Chang reached closer to the end of the song a repeated the bridge
"Ladies let him know he"s got your love
Look him right in his eyes and tell him
We"ve been
Too strong for too long
(and I can"t be without you baby)-
And I"ll be waiting up until you get home
(cuz I can"t sleep without you baby)!
Anybody who"s ever loved,
ya know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothing can replace it!
Call the radio if you just can"t be without your baby~
Heeeey! ooooohhh
Hey ohhhh, "
As she sang the low note of the ohs after the release in the heys, she felt a few tears trickle out unbidden. She continued on repeating the first few phrases a few more times before she stopped with the music.
After a second of stunned silence everyone in the crowd stood to applaud her. Chang came to and left the stage to return to where Justin stood beside their table viewing her with a whole new appreciation. People congratulated her and gave her their compliments on her way back to her friend but she hardly heard anything after her release. She smiled and sat next to him without a word, wiping the two small tears that still stubbornly tried to roll down her cheeks. She grabbed her drink and downed the last of it. He stared at her for a moment more before realizing that this was his moment, he pa.s.sed her the last of his gla.s.s. This was her fifth or sixth, so she definitely shouldn"t have anymore after this, he just wanted a little more liquid truth serum in her to be ensure that the mystery was unveiled tonight.
The a.s.sistant in the corner sent the video to his boss and within five minutes of it having been sent he received a text reply stating "I am coming, stall her if necessary."
