"Are we really going?" Ruby asked for the umpteenth time as the four of them entered the Pia EV6 SUV.
"Are you doubting your sister?" Diamond clicked her tongue as she settled in the driver’s seat.
"I ...."
"Since sister says that, we will go, then let’s trust her. Otherwise, why will we be wearing such nice clothes?" Garnet stated as she looked at Ruby, wondering why Ruby just couldn’t believe that Diamond was so powerful.
As Diamond’s personal bodyguard, who was technologically advanced, she had been busy talking to Andrea, so she knew how much Diamond was worth.
In fact, she was surprised to see how low-key she was. Otherwise, with billions in assets like that, and yet living measly like she was, how could her former masters even do something like that?
When Ruby heard Garnet, the newcomer, saying that; she was embarrassed a little. Even a newcomer believed in her sister and yet she kept on questioning her.
She couldn’t be blamed, though. Her sister had never mentioned anything related to the club and all of a sudden, she could bring them there.
It wasn’t like Diamond told her or the parents how much she had in total. Except for what she shared about the ring and high tech she got; they knew nothing.
It was a bit upsetting, but at the same time, she understood that knowing too much can be very dangerous for them as well.
"I am sorry, big sis. It’s still very shocking for me that we are going there!" Ruby, in the end, apologized as she looked at her sister through the mirror solemnly.
"It’s okay. I wouldn’t believe myself, either. Now strap on. Let’s go and have some fun!" Diamond cheerfully said as she started the ignition.
Selena was all silent, as she was still doing her best to digest exactly what was going on.
One moment they were at the studio apartment sorting the furniture and the next second, they were back at Diamond’s house.
Moments later, everyone was dressed to the nines. Some of the brands she saw in Diamond’s house made her wonder if she had been living under the rocks all these years.
Just where did she get all these fancy clothes that cost a leg?
Anyway, on the way to the Moonlight Lounge club, Selena and Ruby were the ones doing the talking the most and Diamond and Garnet just listened with smiles on their faces.
[Ding! Do you want to sign in?]
As she drove, the notification suddenly sounded once again.
’Um, sign in!’
[Ding! You have been rewarded with a dessert recipe book.]
Now that was new. Her eyes couldn’t help but lit up when she saw what she had received.
With a dessert recipe book, she could open a café and even sell that red tea in the café as well. With something solid and tangible in her hands, Diamond could now think of truly starting this business.
As the other business would be on halt considering how the renovations would take a while, and she couldn’t be idle for longer, she might as well give Nancy something more to do. Otherwise, wouldn’t the pay she was giving her be wasted?
The two buildings would be housing three companies, the micro-lending business, cosmetics and trading company.
That meant that the other businesses didn’t have a place to go, and that needed to be dealt with. And since she would be finding more buildings for them, she might as well find a nice place to open that café in the process.
