“ARE you sure that you are going?”The question that not even a bit took Aaron aback. Especially that he’s been waiting for this day to come. A simple encounter under the mask of a ball that he is perfectly using for his advantage.“What answer are you expecting me to tell you?”With a bit of a disappointed look towards Ash, his best man and best friend that role is like Brian to Sam. Knowing more than anyone else that this particular event is what he’s been preparing for long. He added.“If you thinking about what happened a while ago and my encounter with his younger sister. You do not need to. She is just a little dust that I can wipe away and cleanly out of my face when I need too.”Arrogant and a hell lot of confidence. His personality is like a two-face coin that depending on the situation and the kind of person he is talking with is the type of face and tone that he will be presenting. A hell lot of red flag that he gains with his secret cocky attitude from years of torture and
A hard slap landed and quickly to Ruth’s face. With the disappointment and irritation of Francis so called ‘entitled mistress’.“Are you that stupid?”Dorothy’s insult and blow to Ruth’s character after Ruth blows the plan that should be easy enough to be done by anyone. Yet, Ruth failed to do so, worst she even put everything into dust.“Are that dumb to not get one very simple instruction?”She continues to berate Ruth, who is doing nothing but put her head low and accept such words. From the fact that Dorothy is the one who took her out of prison and giving her this second chance at freedom. And second, she did blow everything up after Cath escape and ends up for the warehouse blowing into smatterings and turning into dust.“I instructed you clearly to take that stupid journalist into a safe place, a hidden one. But guess what? You stupidly choose that one warehouse to hide her!”Dorothy continue to scream in front of Ruth’s face. All in range after the failure of her suppose to be
“WOW!”The twins are awestruck and jaw drop admiring Cath and her beauty as she walks down the stairs and walks towards them.“Mommy, you look like a goddess!”Monique’s compliment that Cole immediately seconded with a cheerful nod and two.“And so are the both of you.”She complimented the twins in exchange and in an adorable way that made the twins giggle in response.“Just like you mommy.”With the twins paired colored dress in a mix of white silk and royal red color. Monique’s dress is adorned with black rose and butterfly from the right side of her dress and to the edges of her skirt. With a bit of sparkles and intricate pattern that shows how expensive it is. While Cole is looking like a little man with his white suit and red tie. Picturing his resemblance and good looking from Sam.“Shall we?”Lindsey asks with a confident smile that Cath didn’t hesitate to agree upon and smiles with the plan at hand. With Brian and Harry escorting them to the ball, the twins are not having the
SUIT and tie. Sophisticated, smart and rich. Aaron waited for a few seconds before coming out of his car when he arrives at the venue of the Governor’s Ball.“CEO sir?”His bodyguard and driver ask him. Indirectly saying that he needs to enter the venue.“You know what to do.”He instructed, giving that plan that only he knew the full extent about. With his bodyguard and driver nodding in response. He opens the door of his car and welcomed by the reporters and some curious citizens who knew that some of their country idols will be they’re at the said ball.“VVIP Mr. Wayeright is here.”The head of the Governor’s security forced informs the HQ using his tiny radio that is connected to his ear pod like tech and a mini circular speaker on his uniform’s coat.“Sir.”Escorted and immediately by the security. Aaron didn’t give a glance nor think of doing so towards the reports and the crowed. Doesn’t care much of any publicity for now, to this night and only this time. With his mind pre-occ
“CATHERINE Wayne.”Eleonore proudly said the name in front of her guess that is currently surrounding her. Placing her self to the podium that she knew everything that no one even had the slight idea about.“They haven’t officially announced to the public of their engagement, but we already know about it ahead of time.”Her words that pertains to her own facts that her family is a close knit to the Lawrence for having such information that no one else does. Feeding that information that she knew that will surely spread like wild fire and establish their good relationship to the Lawrence.“Your family surely have a good family to back you up in the future elections.”The guess words that delighted Eleonore. What she intended them to think. And which means, a good publicity and a good reputation to her husband and the entire future governance of Charles.“Catherine Wayne.”Aaron’s attention and eyes are all towards Cath. Her stunning presence that took almost all of the guess in a breat
“YOU know each other?”Eleonore’s curiosity and immediate reading of the situation that shows her wit in this type of social gathering. But unlike any doubts or alarm that Lindsey and Aaron had in secret to each other. No one notice anything and thinks of it as one of the perfect coincidences that the wealthy people are running in circles before formally meeting.“I just met Mr. Wayeright when my family decided to sponsor an orphanage which he happens to be doing also and such.”Eleonore’s eyes brighten and impress by what she heard. Fully thinking and taking advantage of the new information that she got that will definitely benefit her and her future, along side her husband’s political career and their entire family.“I see.” She smiles. “So, you tow have formally meet each other in a delighted way such as your similar interest in helping and charity works.”Lindsey smiles, riding along Eleonore’s words and her thinking. All to stall Aaron away and in a fair distance to Cath, but she
“HOW come the most beautiful woman in this ball is alone?”Aaron’s compliment that Cath appreciates somehow, yet something from those words in between is making her uncomfortable for some reason that she couldn’t pinpoint. “Mr. Wayeright.”She casually acknowledges his presence. Throwing her current thoughts about him aside, and a bit trusting him. Besides, he is the one who saved her two times in a row in recent days. “Wayeright?”Aaron whispers in disappointment. Cath is addressing him too casually and not the way that he expects to be treated by her. A little impatient, yes. But how could he not? He’s been waiting for this chance for a long. “Thank you for your compliment Mr. Wayeright.”Cath gladly thank him which is not the reply that he expects from her. Nor he wanted to hear from her to say. “Addressing me formally, then does it mean that this is nothing but a kind of business, Miss. Wayne?”His tone and words that Cath quickly get what he is trying to mean. The same line f
“I DIDN’T expect to meet you here and formally, Mr. Wayeright.”Sam’s authoritarian tone, and a bit of a threatening meaning in between his words. While casually presenting himself as the States top Bachelor and the youngest Billionaire ever. Reaching his hand for a handshake and standing beside Cath. “So do I.”Aaron had few words of reply. Taking Sam’s hand for a handshake. Being a civil and businessman alike, but is boiling in rage for Sam’s sudden arrival, his jealousy from Sam’s presence and his oozing presence, and the territory that he has over Cath. “Mr. Samuel Lawrence.”Eleonore and Governor Charles interrupted their little conversation which is a bit going into a heated one because of Cath, yet no none of them is showing it even a little to their faces. “Governor Gideon, Miss. Eleonore.”Sam’s casual greeting and the Governor’s wide smile both them Cath knew that it was all fake. “I apologize for being late.” He immediately gives them a courtesy. “But I guess my fiancée
