the hidden heirs gamble dailymotion

As I walked into the hotel lobby, a bad feeling punched my gut forcing me to retreat. I didn't want to be here. I didn't want to meet those people. But before I could make my escape someone grabbed my arm from behind. I spun around and saw who it was. Jeremy Frasier, my ex-boyfriend, and on his arm stood Sarah, the girl who used to be my best friend in college.

"Trying to run away are you?" Jeremy asked. His voice laced with amusement.

"Stop teasing her babe, she wouldn't do that. Would you?" she looked at me with that same mischievous smirk she always carried.

"No, I just couldn't find where the reunion was"

"Oh dear, you're just as clueless as ever. Don't worry we'll take you"

They shared a glance making me feel uneasy. I knew how this would go. I always ended up humiliated in these reunions. They would always find something to take a dig at me. It was either my clothes or the fact that I wasn't in their social circle anymore. As we got into the lounge, I watched as everyone cozied up to Jeremy and Sarah trying to curry favor with them. Jeremy had just signed a contract with Grey corporations, which was one of the biggest companies in the city and Sarah was a rising star, an internet sensation. They all pushed past me as they spoke to them. Treating me like I was invisible. I had gotten used to this. I walked over to an empty chair when one of my classmates spoke.

"Selena, how dare you sit there? Don't you know that that is Sarah's chair?"

"It's alright Donald, she's my best friend after all. She can sit wherever she wants"

"Sarah, you're still as kind and considerate as always" he said to her. Then turning to me he shot me a look. "Unlike some people"

I got the message and sat on the next sit. "It's alright Sarah, the seat is yours, and I shouldn't covert it"

Satisfied that I had given up the seat they all sat down. They spoke to each other catching up and talking about their jobs and assets. I sat quietly, eating my meal as I watched them through my eyelids.

"Do you regret leaving Jeremy?" one of our classmates spoke turning everyone's attention to me.

"Don't ask her that. That was years ago, we've all moved on from that, right Selena?"

Sarah said, with fake care. She interlocked her hands with Jeremy and they stared at each other causing everyone to whistle and clap. They all knew that the reason I left Jeremy was because he cheated on me with Sarah. That had destroyed my relationship with the two of them. Jeremy had said that he always loved Sarah and I was just in the way so I broke up with him. They did this every time they got together, asking me if I regretted it now that he became a big shot. I didn't, but they never believed me.

"Even if she regrets it, I wouldn't get back with her. I'm engaged to my first love" he said as he put his hands round Sarah's shoulders.

"Engaged? Wow, congratulations" one classmate said. "I'm sure you'd want to get back together with him, especially now that he just signed one of the biggest contracts. Sarah, you better watch out for Selena."

"Selena wouldn't do that, right" she turned towards me, giving me a mocking smirk

"No" I said finally looking up from my food. "I don't even want him"

"Really?" Jeremy laughed as he leaned forward. "You don't need to pretend. How about you drink this and maybe I would let you spend the night with me"

I scoffed. He was still a jerk. An immature engaged jerk. "There's no need for that" I stood up. "I think it's time I leave"

I stood up, about to leave when one of our classmates grabbed me. "Can't you see that Jeremy is being nice? You're so ungrateful"

"It's alright if she doesn't want me. She might be interested in one of us. How about that? Would you like one of them to be your sugar daddy?" he smirked, mocking me.

I watched as everyone laughed and Sarah came to me with a glass. "Alright, alright. We're all classmates, stop bullying her. Forget about them, here have a drink. If you aren't interested in any of them, I can introduce you to some of my rich friends"

Her words sparked another round of laughter as everyone mocked me.

"Sarah is right. Didn't you come here to get back with Jeremy or bag a sugar daddy? I'll tell you what, go home with me tonight and if you please me, I would reward you greatly"

More laughter. Another classmate came forward. "How much do you make a day? Maybe if you beg Jeremy, he could hire you or recommend some jobs to you"

"She's not qualified for that. How about a job as a cleaner? I promise you, you would make a lot. Or you could be my mistress" Jeremy winked.

I felt disgust surge through me. I was fed up, I turned to leave but Jeremy grabbed me. "I never said you could leave. You didn't even pay for the food you ate. Can you even afford it? How about you kneel down and apologize to me"

"Apologize?" I scoffed. "I hadn't done anything wrong. How much is the food? I would pay for it"

He smirked. "Five hundred thousand dollars" he said. Showing his five fingers

My eyes widened. "Five hundred? For that?"

"This hotel is owned by the Greys. Of course, everything is high end and as such, expensive" one classmate said proudly"

"Well how much is my share? I would pay for that"
