Based on the argunt, it seems that the man comnted on lady's behind and how her Brazilian butt lift procedure was not successful. And that earned him a slap.
Two seconds later, there was a commotion on other side of the party, and then another area got lively, and another... Within two minutes several shouting matches were ongoing simultaneously, two ladies started hair-pulling and few punches were thrown as well.
"Well, it's livelier now…" JoAnna laughed and leaned into Jeff's embrace.
Upstairs, Blanca Fernandez was talking with two businessn with a hope to make them her next clients. Her best smile was on and she talked about great deals she made so far and how her custors are always satisfied. Her pitch was interrupted by loud noise which topped the music. She saw people gathering at the fence. They were looking toward lower level with mix of shock and amusent.
Blanca guessed that soone is causing a commotion. She rolled her eyes and pulled her phone, ready to call for security. Troublemaker needs to be escorted out. Blanca wondered why does she need to call security? They should be around, on a standby, and act as soon as trouble starts. When she approached the fence, she saw that commotion is bigger than she thought. Only when she was all the way to the stairs, she saw that half of her guests are raging, and so are even being physical.
JoAnna observed Blanca standing at the top of the stairs, looking down with a crazed expression. It took her so ti to snap out of it and to make a phone call.
About fifteen minutes later, more than half of the guests were escorted out. Most of them had spiked fruit punch, but so of them were agitated by truth-tellers. A lot of people were present initially, so after security escorted people affected by JoAnna's mischief, the amount of people seed just right.
However, it was not over. That spiked punch was still there. And occasionally additional commotions would start which resulted in more people being escorted from the party.
JoAnna and Sarah thought that this is quite entertaining.
While watching all this, JoAnna thought about what Elanor said and she got an idea. She told Jeff to call his reporter contact, and Sarah got him into the guest list with help from Eve (since she didn't have her laptop handy).
About half an hour later, Blanca was sitting at the bar on the upper level. Her expression was not good. How can it be good when more than half of her guests were escorted out? She was not able to understand what went wrong. Few people can get drunk or under the influence of so drugs, but this was massive. She took a big gulp, finishing her glass of vodka martini.
"Another one…", she told bartender.
"You should try the punch. It's really good." JoAnna sat next to her and smiled. She placed two glasses with punch on the glass surface of the bar and pushed one toward Blanca.
Blanca glanced at JoAnna and froze. She recognized her.
"Are you going to refuse my kind gesture?" JoAnna looked at Blanca and blinked few tis.
"Eh, it seems you don't want to talk to ." JoAnna stood up from the barstool. "I understand. Nothing much I can do about it." She stepped away and patted Blanca on the shoulder.
Blanca felt a prick in her shoulder, twitched on the side and rubbed it while watching JoAnna walk away. She looked at two glasses of punch in front of her and wondered how is it possible for JoAnna to be here. It's not that she could not co with soone, but isn't she supposed to be with Enrique? Tied up sowhere? Things didn't add up.
"Oh, where are my manners?" JoAnna returned to the barstool next to Blanca. "I'm JoAnna… but I guess you know that. Don't you?" JoAnna observed Blanca's confused expression. "You still don't want to talk to ? That is OK. I can wait for another ten seconds or so…"
After so silence, Blanca was not able to keep her questions for herself. She knew that it's wrong to talk, but her mouth moved on its own. "How is it possible that you are here?"
"Why would I not be here?"
"Because Enrique kidnapped you."
"Why would he do that?"
Blanca surprised herself how she openly talked about her Boss contacting her and asking that whenever Jeffrey White cos to visit any of the houses that her agency manages, she should contact Enrique and give him access to video feed which shows who entered the property. She knew that she should not say anything more, she already said too much, but words ca out of her… Her agency 'Heavenly Hos' is a coverup for an international illegal organization, they use properties for money laundering and other illegal activities and to hide criminals who need to lay low and can afford them.
"Real-estate agency for rich clients is perfect, because all owners have multiple properties and there is a high chance that while they are selling their ho it will not be occupied. That ans until it's sold, we can use it."
Blanca also revealed that currently two drug lords are occupying mansions which are between owners. There was so much dirt this woman talked about that JoAnna had difficulty keeping her surprise level down. They hit sothing big.
"Why Jeffrey White?", JoAnna asked when it seed that Blanca finished her explanation of 'Heavenly Hos'.
"I don't know. Boss's orders.", Blanca responded. She also said that she never t that Boss in person. Communication happened over phone and email. It seems that she is not high enough to earn the right to et that Boss in person. She gave to JoAnna phone number and email that she uses to contact the Boss.
"Why do you have files about Jeffrey White and on your personal laptop?", JoAnna didn't want to beat around the bush.
"That is what Boss sent and told to forward it to Enrique."
"Do you have any intentions toward Jeff?" JoAnna had to ask. Sarah planted that seed in her mind.
Blanca looked at Jeff who was standing next to JoAnna and listened to their conversation.
"He is very handso, and rich. If he is interested in , I will not say no… but I know that he is out of my league. So, I would never pursue him."
JoAnna liked Blanca's answer. If all won are like that, her life would be much simpler. At the sa ti, she wondered who is that Boss, and why is he treating Jeff as an enemy… They will ask those questions to Enrique, later, and hopefully get so answers.
JoAnna glanced at Jeff. "Do you want to ask anything?"
Jeff shook his head. JoAnna covered everything.
"Thank you, Miss Fernandez. Have a good night." JoAnna stood up. "Oh, do you mind telling us who is the pastry chef for the desserts served tonight?"
"No problem." Blanca got her phone and shared contact of the agency she used.
"Mr. White, how much of this can I publish?" Man, who was sitting behind Blanca with a recording device, asked Jeff.
"All of it. We will appreciate if you omit our nas." Jeff responded while pulling JoAnna close to him.
"Understood.", reporter said with a big smile. This is not the first ti that Jeff contacted him about publishing so news, so he already knows how things go. Jeff and JoAnna will not be ntioned.
"We will inform police about two drug lords hiding in those properties." Jeff added. "If you want to cover that also, have soone wait outside. Tonight."
Man nodded in understanding.. "Look forward to our morning edition!" He thanked them, got up and rushed toward the elevator happily. He has a busy night ahead, explosive news! And exclusive!
