My Little Sunshine

Chapter 150: Is It Done?

Stella twirled the glass in between her fingers after taking a couple of sips. She looked at Adam who was busy replying to someone's text. 

"Put your phone down." She grumbled as she moved a step closer to him.

"Just a moment, it's important." Adam replied without looking up from his phone's screen. His eyes were fixated it as his fingers flew swiftly over the touch screen. 

"It's always something important." She rolled her eyes back before continuing. "It's Saturday Adam, and you are in a party." 

"Are you forgetting that I have to look after some other things besides the business now?" He finally looked up from his phone before locking the screen and shoving in inside his coat's pocket. 

"It means I won't get to spend my weekends with you now." She pursed her lips, her eyebrows furrowing.

"Of course you will. You will accompany me everytime I visit the base." He patted her head softly.

"Really?" Her eyes lit up as her lips curled up in a soft smile. 

Looking at her pleased expression, Adam let out a hearty chuckle. "Yeah!" 

"Why don't you go and look for Lillian and Blake? I think they will be leaving soon." He continued. "I will join you guys in a while."

"Oh, right! I almost forgot about them." She replied before finishing her drink. "I will see you then." Stella replied before walking away from the bar.

Adam looked at her retreating figure until she disappeared into the crowd. He turned his attention towards the bartender and motioned him to give him a refill.

The bartender came to him with a bottle of scotch in his hands. 

"What was it?" Adam muttered under his breath, keeping his voice low. 

"Some sort of powder. She asked me to mix it in the lady's drink." The bartender replied to him, keeping his head down as he poured the drink into his glass.

"Did you?" Adam's voice dropped a few degrees down.

"Of course I didn't. How can I harm my future lady boss?" The man replied.

"Good." Adam added as the corner of his lips slightly turned upwards, adorning his face with a devilish smirk. "Can you recognize the woman?" 

"She's Mr. Liam's daughter." The bartender replied. 

"Add the same stuff in her drink." Adam ordered him without even flinching for once. He didn't want to hurt Liam in anyway, and he knew how much he loved his daughter, but Rachel needed to be taught a lesson.

"As you say, Boss." The man nodded his head slightly before turning around and got busy with other customers. 

Adam gulped down his drink, finishing it in a single go before walking away from the bar and headed to find his beloved little elf. 

"There you go Ma'am."  The bartender placed a martini before her. 

"Is it done?" She asked him. 

"Yes." The man replied to her with a nod. 

"Here's your reward." She added before throwing a thick wad of cash towards him.

"Thank you Ma'am." He replied as he bowed his head slightly. 

"Keeps your lips sealed." Rachel glared at him. She picked up the glass which was served before him and gulped down the drink before heading in the direction in which Adam had gone.

She had a victorious smile gracing her face as she strutted through the crowd, unbeknownst to the situation she had gotten herself into.

------------

Liam was like a fatherly figure for Adam. He had always been there for him, especially after Paul's death. Adam was always worried about his safety. What happened to his father, could happen to Liam as well. They were best friends after all. So he asked Blake to place some men around him, especially in those big parties where anything could happen to one. 

The bartender was one of Blake's men. He wasn't some ordinary bodyguard but a highly skilled assassin from the organization which was now under Adam's controlled. The news of Adam taking over the organization had spread like wildfire throughout the network.

When Rachel had asked him to put the powder in some lady's drink, he was angered enough already at how these rich brats were like. His angered increased three folds when he saw that the lady in question was the one who had come with the Big Boss. And judging by his treatment towards her, she was probably their future lady boss. There was no way he would harm her and put his own life at the line. 

He had agreed to Rachel's demand but didn't put the powder in the lady's drink. He rather took out his cell phone discreetly and texted Adam before he served them their drinks.

'A woman wants me to mix something in the lady's drink who is sitting next to you.' 

-------------

The bartender looked at the thick wad of cash in his hands. He shook his head sideways before shoving it inside his pants' pocket. 

------------

"There you are. I was looking everywhere for you." Adam approached Stella, who was standing with Blake and Lillian. 

Stella raised an eyebrow at him as if mocking him. 'Really? You are the one who asked me to look for them.'

"What's with the look?" Adam asked her before pulling her closer.

"Nothing." Stella shook her head sideways before turning her attention back to Blake and Lillian.

"What do you guys say about it?" She asked them.

"I don't mind as long as Lilly doesn't." Blake replied to her. 

"What do you say?" Stella asked Lillian who nodded her head in a yes. "I am in."

"What are you guys talking about?" Adam, who was standing clueless about what the rest were talking about, finally spoke up.

"I invited them over for tomorrow." Stella replied to his question before throwing one at him. "You won't mind that, will you?" 

"Do as you please baby girl. I won't mind if you burn the entire place down to ashes." He replied to her, placing a small kiss on the side of her head.

Stella beamed at him before mouthing a thank you to him.

"I will leave Katherine and Scott a text as well. Let's see they come together or separately." She giggled. 

The peaceful atmosphere between the four of them was interrupted as a man's voice approached their ears.

"It's good to see you again Miss Stella."
