Legacy Of The Betelgeuse

Chapter 125 – Episode 125: Enjoyable Night.

We are staring at the city from the hill where the restaurant is while enjoying the wine. Chelsea has been telling her story about her life. It's the same as what Ivonna told me when we were about to meet her for the first time in the game, but there's something important part of their lives that Ivonna hasn't told me.

Turns out, they both have been living with their aunt since they were little. Their parents have galleries all over the world. Their parents have been traveling all around the world to create a masterpiece and find inspiration for their arts, so they barely come back to France and see their children. Their aunt has become a parent for them both, and even though they're from a rich family, their parents only send them money that is barely enough for both of them to survive each month. Their parents basically don't have much money since all their wealth is in paintings and art sculptures.

Ivonna used to be working as an office lady, but the money is not that great compared to the time she spent on work. Chelsea felt burdened about it after Ivonna told her that. So Chelsea started to think of getting money from her hobby which is designing a dress and daily clothing. Thankfully, her hobby and her skill finally paid off. They both are now living their dreams basically..

Chelsea is taking a deep breath and exhales deeply.

"This place is really nice, wow."

Chelsea is swirling her glass of wine while looking at me.

"How did you find this exquisite and fancy restaurant?"

I raise my eyebrow and smile.

"I used to pick up or drop off my customers at this place. This place is like a hidden gem and only a few celebrities and important people know about this restaurant, and not everyone can reserve a table in this restaurant."

Chelsea is humming and seems curious about this.

"So, how did you manage to reserve a table for us?"

I smirk and pointing at the host.

"Let's say that we know each other. So he let it slide for us."

Chelsea is squinting her eyes while smiling suspiciously.

"Okay…"

I take out a pack of cigarettes and when I'm about to grab one, Chelsea grabs my hand and shakes her head. I flip my hand and look at her with confusion.

"We can smoke somewhere else."

I furrow my forehead.

"Why? You don't like it here?"

Chelsea scoffs and shakes her head.

"No, I love it here. It's just, how should I say it? Let's go to another place since the night is still young."

I tilt my head and then smirk.

"Alright. Anything for my date partner. Where do you want to go?"

Chelsea is humming while thinking.

"I'm thinking of having a nice and cold beer and a light snack sounds so nice…"

I stand up and walk toward Chelsea. I offer my hand while smiling.

"I know the perfect place."

Chelsea smiles and nods while grabbing my hand.

"Lead the way, Mister."

We are on our way to the bar that I used to spend almost all night when I was still working as a driver. Chelsea is looking at her phone and then she's gasping. I look at her and then she's pointing at her phone.

"That Kingstar guy. He was the MVP from killing Queen Arachne, right? And someone currently bids him 20 million dollars for the Legendary Box. Right now, the auction is live on stream in-game. I wonder how people would bid for that box."

I shrug.

"I have no idea, but maybe that Axel guy is bidding for that Legendary Box as well. He might bid higher than 20 million dollars."

Chelsea raises her eyebrow and looks at me weirdly.

"You didn't know? He got kicked out of the house by his own parents with nothing. It's all over on the internet."

I raise my eyebrows.

"What? Really?"

Chelsea nods.

"Yeah. I'm glad that he paid for what he said. People like him shouldn't be allowed to have power or authority in the future."

I just smile and listen to her rants.

We finally arrive at the bar. I help her get out of the car while she's staring at the bar with a huge smile on her face.

"Now this is what I'm talking about!"

I chuckle and shake my head.

"I'm glad that you like it. Let's get inside because I already book a table for us."

Chelsea is looking and me in awe.

"Wow, you really are a capable man. Not just in-game, but also in real life. I'm seriously impressed."

I scoff and nod.

"Thank you for the compliment."

We enter the bar, and I wave at the hostess and she nods and then approaches us.

"Long time no see, Trev. I already prepared a table for you."

A black-haired woman with brown eyes with piercing on her left bottom lips. Her name is Sara. She's my and Emma's friend. We used to hang out together, but ever since Emma stopped working and I also barely spend the night outside, we haven't seen each other since then.

Sara tilts her head and looks at Chelsea and then she nods in approval.

"Nice, Trev."

Chelsea raises her eyebrows while staring at Sara.

"You guys know each other? How many friends do you have Trev? It seems that everyone in this city knows you."

Sara is giggling mischievously.

"You'll be surprised how many links he has. You'll know when the time comes. Anyway, please follow me. I'll lead you to your table."

We follow Sara to the table she's leading us to, and then we order some beer and fries.

Chelsea and I are lighting our cigarettes and then watch the people in the bar. Chelsea is nodding and following the rhythm of the music. I suddenly have the urge to pee. I look at her while pointing my thumb at the restroom.

"Give me a sec. I need to use the bathroom."

Chelsea nods.

Chelsea is staring at her phone to see the latest news about the auction that Kingstar is holding right now, but then 3 guys are walking towards her and sits on the table.

One of the guys is smiling.

"Hey, are you alone? Would you like us to accompany you for the night?"

Chelsea glares at them from the corner of her eyes and then she sighs.

"Seriously? F*ck off. I'm not interested."

They're looking at each other and then burst out laughing. One of them then sits next to her and starts to grab her hand. Chelsea slaps his hand and then glares at him furiously.

"F*ck off! Are you deaf or are you stupid?"

They become aggressive and start to grab her hand. One of them is smiling suspiciously.

"Oh come on, we are here to have some fun. No need to be angry. We can promise you that we will have a blast tonight."

Chelsea tries to remove her arms from them, but they keep on holding her arms so tightly and it starts to hurt her wrist. Before Chelsea wants to scream for help, she sees Trevor coming towards her with a blank expression while clenching his fists.

Trevor taps on one of the guys' shoulders and as soon as the guy turns his head, Trevor punches him in the nose and grabs his neck, then Trevor slams him to the ground. The rest of them then look at Trevor and open their arms while glaring at Trevor scarily. Trevor tilts his head and then straight punch one of them and then releases a powerful hook punch immediately. The guy falls to the ground and groans in pain. All the people in the bar are staring at Trevor.

Trevor then glares at the last guy.

"Leave."

The guy grits his teeth and throws a punch at Trevor, but Trevor grabs his arm and turns around, then Trevor throws him to one of the tables using his back. The table is destroyed and everyone is gasping. Trevor grabs him on the collar and lifts him up. When he's about to punch him, a huge guy appears behind Trevor and puts his hand on Trevor's shoulder. Trevor turns around and then immediately removes his hand and lifts both of his hands.

An old man is walking towards him and look at Trevor.

"Trevor? I told you not to make a mess in my place!"

Trevor looks at him and then looks at Chelsea. The old man then looks at Chelsea and her dress, then he looks at Trevor and his outfit. He's humming with understanding while he's looking at those guys on the floor.

"Oh, I see…"

The old man then looks at the huge guy and then tilts his head towards the exit. The huge guy nods and then grabs the three guys on the floor and drags them outside the bar.

The old man looks at me and sighs.

"You need to pay for the damages. As usual…"

I nod with understanding.

"Don't worry about that. I'm sorry for making a scene."

The old man waves his hand.

"Every godd*mn time there's a new girl in my place, there's always someone like those guys who love to take advantage of them. Just enjoy your time here, I'll give you both another bottle for the inconvenience for free. Just don't forget to pay for that table."

I smile and nod.

"I know, and thank you…"

I sit next to Chelsea who's holding her wrist.

"Are you okay? Can I see your wrist?"

Chelsea nods and gives her arm. I start to massage her wrist gently. Chelsea tilts her head and smiles at me.

"I didn't know you can fight! Were you some kind of bad guy in the past? Because the owner of the bar said that you did this kind of thing so often."

I shake my head.

"No, not really. Well, I think all men low-key want to be good at fighting, but I was trained a few martial arts as a requirement and a test for applying for the job as a driver. As you know, that I'm not driving a normal customer, but an important or very important client. So I need to be good at fighting. Not only at fighting, but I was required to know how to use a gun. So basically the job is not only as a driver but as a temporary bodyguard for my client as well."

Chelsea is surprised.

"Wow. That's interesting."

I also tell her about the owner of this place and the reason why he said something like that earlier. It was because back then, every time Emma and I were having fun in the bar, there were so many guys trying to hit her. Of course, I was the one who handled them.

Chelsea is getting quiet and has been holding her head. She sighs and looks at the time.

"It's already 1 A.M? I think we should go back. I'm also having a light-headed and I want to hit the bed so badly."

I nod.

"Yeah, let's go back."

Chelsea nods and so we leave the bar and are on our way back to the mansion.

Chelsea is looking at the traffic lights and then she looks at me.

"It was really fun. I really enjoyed everything. Thank you for the date."

I look at her to reply, but she's already asleep.

We are back at the mansion and I'm carrying her on my back. It's 2 A.M. and I believe that everyone is asleep. I'm opening the front door and I hear a TV coming from the living room. I check the living room to see if there's someone who's still awake at this hour. It's Ivonna with her focused face watching the TV on her own while resting her head on her hand.

"Ivonna? What are you doing here on your own?"
