We kept on dancing till it was time for the speeches, we went back to our seats while we listened to various speeches and donations from businessmen. Constantine and his father also gave donations, it was like this ball was organized for the rich to showcase their money.

Constantine gave the highest money and a lot of businessmen came to congratulate him and they also inquired when his new collection is coming out. He gave them the same answer

Wait for it

I got a lot of stares from men and glares from women. I'm sure the women were angry because I was in the arms of Constantine.

While Constantine was conversing with some men I went to get a drink. My heels were killing me.

I took a drink from a waiter passing by and I walked outside to get some fresh air. I was sipping my wine

"What's a beautiful lady like you doing here all alone," a deep voice said behind me

I turned around and a young man with blonde hair, hands inside his pocket. He was dressed in a suit, I had not seen him before

    The trip to Dubai was fun in as much as I wanted to stay there forever. I needed to get back to reality, to work.I bought some stuff over there. It's been a week since we came back from Dubai, and the attraction I felt for Constantine was now stronger. It felt like I couldn't even resist his advances. Things had become heated between us especially when we were at work.We stole kisses sometimes when no one was looking and other times when other employees were around and we started walking hand in hand whenever we were leaving the office together.I hear side comments from some people. Most of the comments were something I was already used to. Things like slut, whore, gold digger, or whatever insult you could think of. I wasn't bothered about them. I remembered the conversation I had with Jason some days ago."I've been hearing things that involve you and the boss," he said"And what did you hear?" I said folding my hands over my chest. "I heard you are getting all cozy with the boss

    Constantine drew some designs and he showed them to me. They looked good but he was not okay with it."Babe, these are really good" "They are not to my taste, I feel like they are not good enough. What do you think the name of the collection should be? He asked me"What about Con's secret," I asked jokingly and he burst out laughing"That name sounds very funny. It sounds like something a lady could use""I was just kidding. I think you should name it something that means a lot to you. Like something you hold in high esteem""Hmmm, that sounds like a nice idea. You're very smart""How about you do a father and son collection for your launch. It will sell fast and people will love it. How about that?" his eyes moved to my belly"Are you......" "No, no. I'm not pregnant if that's what you are thinking" he looked sad"I hoped that was what you were going to say. But we can keep trying" he said with a smirk"I thought about my father and brothers when I brought up the suggestion about a

I was still looking for a job but in the meantime, I engaged in baking cupcakes for little children and I also started playing video games. I enjoyed playing video games.I still did not accept calls from anybody that was not Mandy, I couldn't bring myself to talk to anybody apart from her yet. I was enjoying my time alone, I visited parks and eateries. My phone has been ringing since yesterday and Constantine has been calling me non stop but I didn't pick up, I kept ignoring his call. I was not ready to speak to him now and I didn't know what to discuss either. I did not need his pity. I had just finished eating my breakfast when the doorbell rang. I was excited because Mandy was at the door and I had someone to spend my day with. I opened the door and the smile on my face died down. It was Francis and he had a sad smile on his face. I folded my hands and looked at him"Can I come in?" he said calmly. I was tempted to bang th

He looked very healthy when I saw him last. Before I went to Italy I had visited him to ask for his blessings to marry his daughter. He gave me a stern warning"Eulalia is my only daughter and she is very precious to me. I don't want you to break her heart she's very soft on the inside no matter how hard she portrays herself to be. I know she loves you and you love her too so I'm begging you to please take care of her. I'm entrusting her in your care, her brothers will have their own families too and they might not always be there""I promise you sir that I will never hurt your daughter and I will always protect her and stand by her""Then you have my blessings""Thank you, sir, I won't disappoint you""You better not"Now that man was no more and he had so much life in him, he was always happy.
