CHAPTER 4

Some of the insolent youngsters cheered and took videos of the couple making out in the club. Lips locked and hands rummaging through the bodies of one another.

This was the man who wished to show the world that no matter which clan it was, no matter which girl he desired, he would eventually have her and even the Storms that displayed such hostility were not far beyond his reach, that Alaina Storm was a discarded woman.

The power of media and social influence was such a devastating thing that it had the ability to raise a person to tremendous heights while also pushing another ones' head into the mud. All those who have clicked photos did not hesitate to upload them on various platforms thus this was no less than a disaster for the prestige of the Storms.

The family that was treated with respect in Russia now received the common folk's scrutiny as the 'live' broadcast of the second young heiress was done. People called names and said that no matter how much money these rich females have, they were no better than prostitutes, one sister rejected a man to gain public appreciation while other just the next day went to his bed to keep him appeased, all such was drams that were designed by the Storms. Such heavy allegations and insults were thrown from all over yet the two shameless individuals were unaffected.

Brown honey waves fell on her face, thick locks naturally blessed her heart-shaped face glimmering as a golden liquid in light. Red pouty lips curved down slightly in distaste. Alaina was forced to come to this forsaken place smelling of drugs and cheap alcohol with how the circumstances were, instead of throwing a tantrum observed the calamity with calmness.

"Calliope Vallace Storm" The harsh tone of the voice made the other girl flinch before two bulky guards pushed Kevin off Cally and slapped him in the face so hard that the ones watching the drama unfolding with fascination were startled with fear creeping down their spine.

A red handprint made Kevin's half cheek swell, who then roared in rage.

"Bitch! You think of yourself as someone mighty! you are nothing but a slut-" Another slap made the man sprout out blood and he could not watch Alaina with his bloodshot eyes anymore, since the bulky men in black made him bent down on his knees before the true princess.

"Kevin Lev, you are a small bug in this princess's eyes, do you think that I, Alaina Storm would suffer or endure your arrogance. The woman beside you is the second heir of Storms yet there is only one princess and that is me. Joining hands to bring shame to the entire empire, Calliope Storm you will be dealt by your father while as long as it is someone unworthy like you Kevin, I do not have time to spare."

If it was those who see on the surface, this declaration was as if the woman was establishing her own power over the two and showing Cally her place yet the ones that have stayed in the business arena for a long period of time understood inner working of the clans.

For someone who had no sense of sincerity towards family and shame was often dispelled from the family branch in great clans, with nowhere to go and subjected to criticism and disdain, such individuals had a tough life and some even committed suicide to escape from the tarnished reputation.

Cally's eyes that were murky with jealousy so as to the point she pawned her own body in hopes of bringing Alaina down did not see the favor she was bestowed with, the shareholders and elders would have thrown her out in this situation and by giving a speech infront of the world, Alaina had made her have a way out of this scenario.

The most punishment that the girl would have to endure now was a meager house arrest for a month.

Cally was far from naive and innocent, her brain worked absolutely fine to know what she was getting herself into but nevertheless, she proceeded, her hate had blinded her to see from right to wrong and this was going to be her reason for her fall.

Alaina held Cally's forearm tightly, making her stand up before she looked at the people present at the party with her head high.

"This place is unsuitable for children that consider themselves high above the skies, with the stench of drug and alcohol that even the dogs of Storms would refuse to drink, it does not define your noble and high power, ones that have no kindness and compassion often throw mud at others, before judging other's character one should pay heed to their own deeds. How many of you can say you have never committed any mistakes?"

Neither too cold nor too mild, the attitude made people unable to see any further inside her mind.

The entire arena was stumped to silence, people on the live broadcast were silent for a little while before the entire comment section broke into a war, most of the people sided with Alaina and said that it was not her fault that her cousin could not control herself while the others showed contempt but could not defy the bravery of the young princess to take the matter head-on.

The guards paved the way for the two women and did not rest till the two of them were inside the car.

"You think you are the Princess, how am I, the firstborn child in Storm clan less than you in anything?" Cally fumed but did not give any reaction to Kevin being beaten inside the club as if she could care less.

"Less than me? You are a person who is not completely satisfied by your own self, you say that like people consider you a lesser person but Calliope......the truth is that you are the one having no faith and self-respect. You are playing with fire and hoping to come out unscathed. The hole you are digging .....pay heed that you don't fall in it yourself."
