Skye's P.O.V
I came out about three minutes later and ignored the people who were staring at me. I had arrived at the restaurant four minutes early and was surprised to see that Mr. Ootori was already waiting but that his sons, who he said would be joining us, were not with him.
I was seated where he was waiting "Hello Mr. Ootori. My name is Skye, Skye Night."
He looked up from the paperwork he had been looking over and stood. He shook my hand "It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Night. My name is Yoshio, Yoshio Ootori. Please excuse my sons, they're on their way now."
"It's no problem Mr. Ootori." I said back
A few minutes later his sons arrived. I couldn't see the younger two because the eldest was in front of both of them.
"Miss Night, these are my sons." Mr. Ootori began to say. The eldest stepped forward, "This is my first born, Yuuichi."
"Hello Miss Night." Yuuichi said as he grabbed my hand and kissed it, luckily not my bleeding one.
"Hello." I said back
"This is my second son, Akito." Mr. Ootori continued. Akito did the same as his brother and I replied the same as I did with Yuuichi "And this is my youngest son Kyoya he finished with slight disgust in his voice.
My eyes widened slightly as I saw Kyoya repeated his brothers' actions. I said hello and dropped the subject, not wanting to make a big deal of it.
"Where are your parents?" Yuuichi asked, obviously confused
Mr. Ootori looked at me with sympathy. Just as he was about to, what I assume was apologize for his son bringing the subject up and explain he hadn't known, I said in a tone that clearly showed I didn't give a fuck by its monotone "Dead."
"If you don't mind me asking, Miss Night. How did your parents die?" Akito asked
I raised an eyebrow, "I thought everyone in Japan knew."
He shook his head "No."
"They were killed, for being disgusting excuses for human beings and failing their jobs as parents," I said still not caring but before he spoke again I added, "by me."
They quieted down quickly as shock overcame all of their faces including Mr. Ootori himself, except Kyoya. Mr. Ootori cleared his throat. "Well, I'm sure you have your reasons."
"Yes, I don't tolerate people crossing me. Simply put."
The waiter walked up to us and asked to take out orders. Everyone ordered but I just got a water.
"Aren't you going to order?" Kyoya asked me
"I ordered a water." I said plainly
"I mean food." He said
"No." I said flatly
"You have to eat Miss Night. It is essential to your health." Yuuichi said "Trust me I'm a doctor."
I took a deep breath to keep my composure, because I don't think that Mr. Ootori would like to be in business with my family if I kill his son "You're point would be? I need to stay in shape and unnecessary calories aren't going to reach that goal." He went to speak again but I waved my hand and he shut up, "Now why exactly have you called me here Mr. Ootori?"
"Well I have seen your modeling work and would like you to be in a commercial for our company's water park."
The waiter came with their meals as he finished speaking. Just as Mr. Ootori was about to sip his wine I put a hand on it and lowered it to the table before clearing my throat to get the waiter's attention.
"May I help you madam?" the worried asked
"What exactly is the meaning of this?" I asked with annoyance
"I'm sorry but I don't understand." he said
"Do you think I'm stupid?" I hissed
"I'm sorry but what are you referring to?" he said slightly impatient
"Let me simplify it to match your incompetence. Do you know you I am?" I said
"I am aware, yes." he said back
"Then you should know not to play me a fool, nor to interfere with my business." I stood up and picked up the glass of wine "What is this?"
"It is what the gentleman ordered; wine." he scoffed
"Did you prepare it?" I asked rather impatient myself
"Yes. It's Katsunuma, a great selection." he said quite proudly
"And you don't find anything wrong with it?" I asked
"No." he said flatly
"If that's true, then drink it." I said to him and held the glass to him
He began to sweatdrop "I can't drink the customer's wine."
"Drink it. Now." I demanded, shoving it in his face
He hesitantly took the glass and downed the small portion of wine. Soon he began to foam at the mouth and collapsed to the floor, dead. I took my seat again, unfazed. Mr. Ootori began rambling about his life is forever in my debt and blah and blah and blah.
I gave him my fake but convincing smiles "With all due respect," I let my smile drop "shut the bloody fuck up you're getting on my nerves."
He looked dumbfounded for a moment, before nodding
"How did you-" Kyoya began to ask but I cut him off
"I know my way around venoms and poisons. The smell and color of the wine were a dead give away, however," I looked at the waiter and looked back at him "He was Lucas's butler. I knew he was suspicious. He knows how to hold a grudge and this was probably his poor attempt at revenge for me not excepting Lucas as my fiancee, possibly even for his recent passing." I turned to Mr. Ootori "And I'll take the commercial job but you'll have to talk to my agent to get my schedule. I'll text her number to Kyoya and he can take care of setting up a date, since he knows my social calendar." With that I walked out of the restaurant, stepping over the corpse and leaving it where it was
