Stella POV

Stella Regina Williams! Get your ass down here!! 

Shouted my mom. I don't know what has gotten in to her these days. It's actually quite scary when your mom calls your full name. So I rushed downstairs to see what is it. "Yes mom! what do you want? I have lot of work to do" I exaggerated. "Come on Ella it will be fun and what always work! Work! Work!"said my mom taunting me.

"Seriously mom what do you want? " I walked to counter of the kitchen searching for food around. "Ella you have become an work addict take a chill pill ! " chirped my mom in an annoyed way. 

I go to the fridge and take out some left over noodles and start eating without bothering to heat it.

"Ella you're going to come with me to the gala tonight" she danced around as she said.

"Arghhhh! No I am not". 

I seriously hate these high end parties or as my mom calls it "gala". 

All these fake people come to flaunt their money bitching about everything around them.

"Mom but why do I have to go to this "gala" I say as I emphasize on the word the gala

"Well there is a good chance for you to meet hot rich Ceo's there and besides it's good for making business connections. "

"But I don't want to meet anybody." I said pouting making a expression a child would do to get out of something.

Pretending to be oblivious to my pouting face she continued her work.

"OK fine don't come and I'll not talk to you. "my mom said in a monotonous way.

As much as I love her I cannot stand the idea of her not talking to me. She always wins her arguments like this. Moms and their emotional blackmails.

At end I always end up doing what my mom says. I kinda always listen to her since my mom is my only family after dad died. By the way she my only friend she always has been. I was ten, when my father died. I kind of isolated myself after my father died. It was hard for me and my mom especially for my mom.

It was very hard for me to see my mom crying every day after my dad died. Whenever I used to come home from school, I would find my mom hiding somewhere in the room and crying. I just stop caring about it as years went on. As years went, she to stopped crying every day.

I inherited my grandfather's who died soon after my father small company when I was 20. I completed my college early and since I was a bright student I skipped a few grades when I was small. I didn't have any friends so I didn't have much distraction . I worked hard and hard all these years to brings the company up.

My grandfather made my mom the intermediate CEO until I was 20. So I could inherit it. Struggling between work and handling a kid my mom was exceptional. She is my role model. I want her to be happy always. My only goal in life is to make her proud and happy.

My mom broke me out of my thought my tapping on my shoulder.

"What are you dreaming about ?"

"Nothing I ...Just.."

"So you going to come with me to the gala tonight and that's final I don't any excuses".

"Ok but only on one condition you will not hook me up any of your friend's son" I said very sternly

"I promise, you will have fun ", she went on and on while dancing around like a small girl.

I went back upstairs to my room . My mom sometimes behaves worst than teenager . She is the only reason I don't have friends.

Well! Not the only reason but definitely one the reasons .

I took a long lazy shower . When I came outside I found a red blackless full length dress lying on my bed it's probably my great mom. Since I can't fight I had to wear that stupid dress . After getting ready I went downstairs my mom was ready as ever.

As soon we entered my mom wander about quickly looking for her friends leaving me alone . Well I can't stop her she is just late forthies. She had me when she was  .

I walk towards the bar to get myself to a drink. 

I really need one if I am going to survive this night.

By the corner of my eyes I see a girl standing next to me.

"I see.... not a big of parties me neither. "

I turned my face to look towards her. A girl probably the same age as me wearing a beautiful black gown, redhead her tied a nice bun, a little bit shorter than me with beautiful hips. She was in a perfect shape. She looked beautiful.

I quickly introduced myself. 

"Hi ! I am Stella Regina Williams".

"Wait aren't you that famous entrepreneur ".

"Indeed I am! and you are ? "

"Wait I know you aren't you Mia Reynolds? . "

"Guilty" she said while raising her hands in the air.

"I Love your book.......... Love over coffee. "

"Why you don't like my other books? " she said sarcastically.

"Well... It's not that I like that book better than the others. " I said smiling.

We quickly hit it off. As though we had known each other for years. As we continued talking about our interests and other stuff.

After a while I saw two men gawking at us well probably not me at Mia. But anyways........

I leaned closer towards Mia who signaling the bartender for a another drink. "Don't look back but two men are staring at us." I whispered into her ears.

As soon as I said that she turned her head around to look at them.

This is what happens when you ask someone to not turn around and they do.

"Well... They are hot I think we should go talk to them."she almost shouted then slowly coming back to her normal voice. 

"Well I have to admit that............."

"Okay come on now........ act as if we are talking something funny giggle a little and flash a smile towards them...."

One of them gets up and walks towards us. 

He went to Mia obviously.

"Hey! I am Brady"

"Mia."

"Would you like to dance with me?"

I knew this was going to happen.

"I would love too". Mia chirped flashing over a very big fake smile.

As she went by she mummered sorry and a winked at me.

I showed thumbs up and mummered get laid.

She showed me a Shut up look and went to dance with him.

I completed my drink and started walking towards the ladies room as felt the urgent need to go.

As I was walking I hit somebody and Bam!

I looked down to see he spilled his wine all over me.

"I am so sorry........ I am really sorry."

"Yeah you should be!!! ......."

"you've ruined my dress "

"I am sorry ! I didn't see you there."

"Sorry my foot!....... "I shouted.

"See I am sorry!!

I really see you there please don't make a big commotion out of it!!!...."

"Oh .......so I am the one making the commotion!!!...

here you are the one wine all over my dress....

wait aren't you the guy who just offered me a drink. "

"Yes and I regret it...."

"I know all your tactics offer a girl

drink........then talk to her lure her with your lies and sleep with her. "

"You know what you don't even deserve my anger.........

FUCK YOU!!"

I said those words and went straight to home not caring about my mom cause she saw me fighting she come back on her own.

“What a feisty little shit “ Jack murmured and went away  from there.

“Ethan you know who I met just now , that feisty little entrepreneur , Which your dad was talking about , I can see she is really good for you man” Jack spoke bumping his shoulder.

“Jack fuck off”

“why you fu*k me off every time I want to have a bro talk with you “ Jack spoke faking a hurt .

“ I think we are done here , dad wants me to see the girl I saw her , she is not for me , now lets go “ Ethan spoke getting up .

Jack pushed him down.

“such a good party, enjoy it man get out from you mafia face cover an be a lively 30 year old man for just once brother and enjoy life.”

Ethan smirk “this type of life doesn’t fit us brother “Ethan stood up and signal his man .

The bodyguard dragg a nagging jack out of the party followed by Ethan.
