My Princess In The Golden Cage

"He's so handsome... But when did he arrive?"

" I haven't noticed but it seems like he's the boss of this place."

"Pinch me, damn! How handsome... I wish I had a boyfriend like him."

"He's too handsome... but why does he seem so familiar?"

"Yeah right? I feel that too."

His gaze swept through the crowd before landing on Aadhya, "So you're the important guest?" He examined the figure ahead from head to toe. Although he was dumbstruck upon glimpsing her beauty, he concealed it perfectly as if he was not at all bothered by it.

Aadhya merely spared him a glance before looking at the stylist and said, "I think it's time for the appointment?"

Startled at her sudden question, the stylist remained still for a bit with a dumbstruck face.

"What the hell is going on? Hey...You? Is she your mistress? Oh! So you're the sugar daddy? So that's exactly why she's being so gutsy, no wonder." The moment she finished, a cold sensation on her back caused her to jerk. She lifted her head in a certain direction and met the cold and indifferent eyes of the man which instantly made her shiver.

Everyone's gaze landed on the lady fuming from rage.

Natasha who was initially smitten looking at the man, snapped out and glanced in the direction of the voice with an extremely awful expression. The moment he entered the room, she was captivated by his charms and had already planned out her scheme to trap the charmingly handsome man. She came up with several strategies to attract the man towards her but now peering at her foolish lackey, she began to fear the worst.

Moving forward, she hurriedly held onto her arm and chuckled awkwardly, "I sincerely apologize from her behalf. She's just blinded by rage for a moment. Please, excuse us." But who would've thought that not only would she fling her away but also tow her to the bottom of the sea?

"What are you scared of Ms.Long? Didn't you say that your father can buy this place for you in the wink of an eye? Since you already own this place, why don't you just kick her out? Didn't you also request the bald fat man to sell this place to you? " Unlike before, she turned over and interrogated her without even thinking twice that the question could make them down in the next second.

"Bald-fat man?" Darting his gaze towards the pair of clowns, he felt perplexed.

Everyone in the staff knew that he was the only owner of the salon. However, the young lady seemed to have varied thoughts to speak out. therefore he turned around and looked intensely, heightening the tension in the room as if forcing her to reveal the facts.

Under the indescribable pressure radiating from the man, she shivered and spoke out almost immediately, " Few days ago, Ms.Long planned to buy the place and discussed a deal with the owner. Today we came here to inspect the salon. The agreement has been signed and the salon now practically belongs to her." Her lips quivered under the tremendous tension.

As soon as she finished her words, the room fell into momentary silence, their eyes landed on the man who was standing there while his frosty expression. " Why don't I remember selling this place to you... Ms.Long?" His chilly voice drifted into every corner

His sudden declaration induced a sense of doubt inside their hearts, the crowd was dumbstruck at the sudden turn of the tables. They darted their confused gazes to the lady.

"That-" Looking up, she couldn't dare to bring out words to explain. The aura surrounding him was terrifying at the moment. Originally, she was only faking the subject to imply the amount of wealth she possessed. Nonetheless, she never imagined that her initial tale would be exposed in such a way.

"Evy? Didn't she just say that we're here for inspection? And that the man who sold the place was an ugly man?" Chloe blurts out loud without even realizing as it made the silent figure jolt up in surprise. Her eyes darted back and forth before she nodded dumbly.

The sudden interruption left her speechless as she glared in the direction of the two senseless tools. The crowd was instantly dumbfounded while their eyes traveled back and forth.

Aadhya stood there as she watched the entire scene play in front of her eyes. Glancing at the dumbfounded faces, she had an urge to laugh out loud. "Amy, do we have a popcorn?" She asked sarcastically.

"Huh? No..." Then she continued ogling at the man before her.

"What's with the one-word reply? "

"He's HANDSOME" The voice filled with affection caused the latter to jerk.

"Really?" Turning her head, she sighted his gentle features.

The man surely is handsome but not as handsome as that man, She reckoned.

"Huh?" She blurted out inwardly at her own thoughts.

"What's wrong?" Amy retracted her gaze reluctantly and inquired.

"I don't know but I seemed to have met a man before who looked even more handsome than this guy but I don't recall where."

Ever since the incident, her mind would flash an image of a man once in a while as if reminding her of his existence. This made her distracted as she couldn't recall the incident nor the image later.

"Oh. Might be some star from any series." Amy replied to which the latter replied by nodding her head.

This was the scene that came into his sight just as he turned in her direction. She stood there silently nodding her head looking as if she was in deep thoughts. The blazing eyes from earlier were retracted the minute he glanced up. She looked adorable as she nodded her head with an innocent expression plastered across her face. Although his expression resided as identical as before, If one studied closer they would spot the subtle smile in his eyes.

Natasha spotted his softened eyes gazing in a certain direction. Her face turned green with envy and hatred. With the eyes glaring in her direction she blurts out in impulse. "Yes, I can afford this salon but what about her? Can she? After all, she's a mistress." Feigning innocence she spoke out loud.

"What evidence do you have Ms.Long? Do you believe that I can sue you for defamation? Ms.Long does not bite off more than one can chew... Right?" Even though none of them knew her identity in the beginning, they could now assume that she held an important stance in some field. Seeing the stylist snap out and escort her towards the cabin which was meant for prestigious people while the oppressive aura around her and underlying threat in her tone cleared every suspicion in their minds.

Glancing in the direction of the only lady left, an elder woman asked: "How do you know that she's a mistress?" The women sounded skeptical.

Natasha was instantly alarmed but before she could respond another voice resounded in the place, "Isn't it obvious from the dress she wore?" Chloe rolled her eyes and spat out disdainfully.

"So it was an assumption?" From the looks, one could tell that this group of women were envious of her and hence concluded to defame the lady earlier. As soon as they concluded the whole scenario, their hearts sank and expression deteriorated. They felt played in the hands of these sly women.

"Preposterous, they played with us."

"One could never judge a book by its cover."

"I don't think that woman is pretty as they all claimed it before. She looks ordinary."
