| AT THE OUELLET'S MANSION, |

Maryse's mom furrowed her brows as she watched the nanny added one more plate and a wine glass on the table.

"Also get the fork and knives, nanny." Maryse happily commands as she poured the champagne on the glass.

"Umm Maryse, Why did you add another plate? We're only three in this table." Her mom curiously asked.

Edge chuckled, "Oh Lita...the love of my life...it's obvious that we're going to have a guest. That's why she let us dress formally."

"Dad, we always dress formally even there's no event" Maryse corrected.

Lita was surprised and turned her attention on her daughter who was now smiling over her ears.

"Is that true? Someone's joining dinner with us?"

"Dad's right, Mom! My boyfriend's coming!" She shrieked out.

Her parents exchanged looks and grinned in excitement.

"Finally! Now we are extremely excited to meet your boyfriend!" Edge exclaimed.

"I'm pretty sure he's a good looking guy!"

"Of course, wife! Our daughter inherited the handsome detector from you!"

"Wow! So you are saying you're handsome?" Lita snorted at her husband.

"Call me Rated H Dad starting today. Rated Handsome as hell dad!" He proudly stated with a big smile on the face.

*ding dong*

"OMG! I think he's here!" Maryse giggled and sprayed tons of perfume on herself in front of the dining table.

She headed right away to the gate to open and it ejected the man wearing a luxurious black suit and sunglasses.

"Good evening, my lady." Mike greeted as he kissed her hand.

"Why so decent, babe!" Maryse giggled.

"There he is, Lita!" Edge yelled from the luxury door and headed their way to the main gate.

"Look who's so excited to meet the most must-see boyfriend in the world," Mike smirked at Maryse.

Edge smiled at him while Lita lowered her brows examining Mike's face.

"Mom, Dad. Meet my boyfriend!" Maryse smiled hugging Mike.

"I'm Mike Mizanin, the most awesome guy you'll ever meet and came from a prominent and wealthy family."

"I'm Edge, young man." Edge nodded.

"Good evening, Dad and Mom!" Mike happily greeted them, extending his arms for them.

Edge was about to accept his hand when Lita chopped it away.

"Hon, what's the problem?"

"Take off your shades, young man."

"Pardon me, Mom?"

"I said take off your shades right here, right now!" Lita yelled that made Mike do it.

Lita nodded after Mike revealed his full face.

"I'll be back. Just gotta find something for you, young man." Lita smiled smugly to Mike.

"Ooooh! I like surprises. Okay, I'll wait, Mom!"

"So, how long have you dated my daughter?" Edge asked while Mike was still outside of the house.

"We've dated for one month if I'm not mistaken," Mike answered formally.

"GET THESE CHAINSAW!!!" Lita suddenly yelled, trying to hit Mike with the chainsaw.

"Mom! What's happening?!" Maryse freaked out as she and her Dad stepped away from them.

"THIS MAN JUST CALLED ME UGLY WHEN I WAS BUYING A MAKEUP KIT! I'M GONNA KILL YOU, YOU DISRESPECTFUL YOUNG MAN!" Lita exposed while Mike was dodging the chainsaw.

Mike bite his lower lip as he remembered that.

"I'M SO SORRY, MOM! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!"

"DON'T CALL ME MOM, YOU RUDE GUY!"

"MAAAARYSEEEE! HELP MEEEE!"

| AT THE FLAIR'S MANSION,
SPECIFICALLY AT CHARLOTTE'S ROOM |

"Becks! You're even listening to my rants!" Charlotte exclaimed with her lips pouted when she caught Becky was busy on her phone.

"I'm sorry, Char. Finn just sent me a message and I don't know what's my reply is going to be."

"Oh!" Charlotte raised her brows and smirked after hearing it was Finn she was busy about. "I mean, go for it, Becks! I support you one hundred one percent!"

"You misunderstood me, Char. Finn's not flirting with me." A frown can be traced on the Orange-headed girl's face.

"Oh? Let me guess? He was talking about Bayley, isn't he?"

Becky exhaled and nodded.

"Poor Becks. That slender man is annoying! How many times should we tell him we didn't know the reason why Bayley cut their relationship off. Bayley didn't tell anything about us. He should stop pestering us." The blonde ranted, combing her hair.

"It really seems he's still head over heels on our friend." Becky sighed and turned off her phone.

"Oh no! Don't lose hope, Becks! You got my back and Sasha seems to push you too so basically you should be hopeful." Charlotte smiled.

"Whatever guys, it's not going to work," Becky said and lay down her back on the mat on the floor, getting ready to sleep. Charlotte also did the same and put her eye mask on.

"Want some more pillows, Becks?" Charlotte asked and threw three more pillows when Becky nodded.

"You know what Char...I keep wondering why he's avoiding us."

Charlotte took off the eye mask and curiously glanced down at Becky with furrowed brows.

"Who?"

"Sami. He's been acting weird lately."

Charlotte rolled her eyes, "Maybe he just got problems."

"Maybe. But I don't think so. Sami is a positive man. Plus, he seems normal talking to Kevin and others. It's like we're the only ones he's not talking to. Quite frankly, I'm not used to it."

"Maybe he really did something 'awful' which the person couldn't take it and decided him to stop pestering."

"What do you mean?" Becky gets up and lowered her brows on Charlotte.

"Whatever. Just forget what I said. Night, Becks!"

Charlotte turned off her lampshade and left Becky confused. Basically, Charlotte hasn't told her argument with Sami Zayn to Becky. She thinks keeping it away from Becky could not lead to a mess. Charlotte was just so done with Sami.

| BACK ON THE BAR |

"Baron!" AJ immediately asked once his shift was over.

"Hush! Call me wolf when I'm in this place." Baron said getting annoyed at AJ.

Baron's phone suddenly rings. The Lonewolf scratched his neck once he saw the caller id.

"Hey AJ, Tiger is still in there. You can talk to her right now. This is your only chance to go!" Baron immediately pushed AJ to the opposite side as he grabbed his bag and walked towards the exit.

AJ was getting confused at Baron's action but ignore him instead.

The woman whose nickname is tiger looks like she's waiting at someone.

"You knew wolfie?" She suddenly asked as she wears her jacket and slings her bag onto her shoulders.

AJ nodded in response.

"Woah! destiny to meet you here. Five months ago, I started working here as a waitress. The pay's good." She started walking towards the exit as AJ followed her.

"Funny that Bar-- I mean wolf said the same thing," AJ commented.

"Wolfie started working here two months ago. He's really unfriendly and doesn't talk much. But sometimes when Lion, our master asked him why he's working here...he complained a lot talking about his friend who kept borrowing money without even giving it back to him." She blurted out and her face flushed when she realized that she's blabbering too much.

"The nerve of Bar--- I meant the nerve of his friend!" AJ almost slipped when he heard the news. He's going to punish Baron for backstabbing him.

The woman simply nodded.

AJ suddenly stopped from walking when he folded his arms, shifting on his feet as he tapped his finger on his arm, "You know wolf's real name?"

The woman shook her head, "It's a policy here that we can't talk about personal lives unless it's related to work. We just know each other by nicknames and faces."

AJ nodded his head, realizing what Baron meant by 'It's not like she doesn't want you to know...it's she can't tell you.' phrase.

"So they don't know your name?" He asked.

"I don't give my names easily." She honestly said.

"Oh." He reacted.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you my name when the time is right." She said as she smiled at him. She called a taxi and stepped inside.

She opens the taxi's window, she's about to speak when AJ cut her off.

"What's your favorite number?" He randomly asked.

She blinked at him but answered nonetheless, "Zero."

"Mine's One." He said as he smirked at her. Then he shifted his gaze from her to the driver, "Hey! Mister DRIVER! Take care of Tiger safely."

The driver simply nods his head. AJ took a photo of the back of the taxi. AJ didn't go home until the cab was nowhere in sight.

His phone vibrated as he read the message loudly, 'It was nice to see you today. Goodnight One :)'

He shook his head as he chuckled. He immediately types a reply.

The blonde woman giggled when she read his simple reply. 'Goodnight Zero.'

The driver heard her as he asked, "Your boyfriend?"

"He's not my boyfriend."

"Seriously?"

The woman stared at the window and muttered, "I wish."
