Bette furiously clenched her fists further into a ball, causing her nails to dig into her palms. She looked down at Mr. Simmons, who still sat with a smirk.

”Mr. Simmons here beat up one of our chicks, when she was providing service for him. As far as I know, we have certain rules…” Bette accented the last word with a low melodious tone. ”And these rules will be no assault and battery towards your lady of the evening without any substantial reason, isn’t that right, Dominic?” She finished, now gloating herself.

”Oh yes, it IS right. But there WAS a reason as Mr. Simmons had reported earlier. Mr. Simmons, could you please voice the reason to my ignorant subordinate?”

”Of course” The man agreed smugly. ”That girl stole seven grams of coke from my house. My bad I hadn’t hide it before. But I thought your chicks are decent and fair to their customers…”

”They are, Mr. Simmons, they are” Dominic was quick to interfere and defend. ”It’s just this particular girl… and this kind of mishap won’t happen again. Bette, apologize”

The pop-eyed brunette uncrossed her arms and put hands on her hips. She definetely had not expected such a dramatic turn of events. Turning her gaze towards the man again, she forced a smile. ”Mr. Simmons, please accept my apologies. I and my people showed total disrespect and agressiveness. It won’t happen again.”

Mr. Simmons nodded in a conceited way and looked at Dominic pointedly.

”Oh, don’t worry, we’ll accrue compensation for your material losses, Mr. Simmons”

”That would be wonderful, Mr. Shaw” He stood up and walked up to the door. Before he stepped out, he looked over his shoulder. ”And do something to teach that rebellious girl of yours”

Dominic and Bette exchanged glances after the man had left. The brunette took a seat with a sigh.

”What’s the chick’s name, Bette” Dominic asked quietly, but unwaveringly, as he played with his gold ring.

Bette ran a hand through her hair anxiously. ”Miranda” She replied. ”Dom, you don’t really think that… Come on, the man is a degenerate, can’t you see that? And she’s just made a mistake, such a poor thinger she is. Pay that pig and we are through with that shit”
