Chapter 71- History
*Fedor’s POV*Trigger Warning
Kurt smirked, “If she’d have me.”
Someone scoffed, “Like she isn’t a vulture.”
A vulture? What did I ever do to these people? And from what I understand, some of them were married from the lower class, was there a school where everyone learned to be some uppity dippity shitty brick… then a deep voice asked, “Fedor, is that you?”
Queen arched her perfect brow and I tried to see who was talking. Of course, my luck wasn’t great but I did not believe it was that bad as well, it was Chuck! He was a usual at a place I once worked, it was not one of my finer experiences since it was a club and I was a server but that did not stop him, he still wanted a piece and that caused me that job because I had well… we have established my anger issues. This was a small world man, “Chuck.” I greeted.
He snorted, “I see you have ambitions. Finally embracing your gold digging tendencies, it seems.”
I smiled gently instead because it wasn’t the first time I had this discussion with him even though I had explained succinctly that I could introduce him to people who offered the services he wanted but instead he took it to mean that I had called him small because I assumed he could not afford me. I supposed that I should have been flattered because he thought I was a high priced whore. I could never understand some people, even though everyone respected the man at the head of the table, it did not stop the vicious comments that followed. Queen put her hand on mine as a gesture of comfort I thought but Mr Carl the something did not find it amusing and he did not try to hide it.
“Is she the one you have chosen for him?” Mr. Carl asked and everyone went silent.
Queen dabbed the corner of her lips with the napkin before she spoke, “She is my escort for tonight, however Kurt’s marriage will turn out, we will leave it to fate.”
“You never do anything without a reason.”
“Why are you paying attention to me today? No meetings that need your attendance?” Queen asked in a calm tone but anyone could feel the iciness and grudge underneath it.
Carl sighed like he wasn’t ready for any trouble and continued to eat quietly. Barbara had other thoughts, “This is why she walks around thinking she is better than anyone. You let her get away with everything even disrespecting you.”
