Chapter 15 Shopping

Oliva Morton Pov

My mother and I went to Foushee Elegant boutique to find me an elegant gown that would complement my curves. We were looking for hours. I then spotted a dress that was tucked in the corner of the rack. It is a velvet black off the shoulder A-line floor length gown that has a trailing train. It has white bead and lace work that starts at the left shoulder and extended all the way down to the right hip. There is also a very high slit. Oh, I think this is the one for me.

Mother off handedly mentioned the news about Samuel's run-in with the paparazzi on Monday at the night club, the Solar Star. I said the information that the reporters have is not false. It is more of a percursor for what is to come for Samuel and me. After all, I have a formal date with Samuel this weekend. Samuel will be picking me up, and we will be arriving together at the gala.

Let the reporters and the paparazzi speculate, after all that is what they do best. My mother asked me if I had anything to do with what happened to Samuel on Monday, I just smiled and said, "a lady never tells." Mother just looked at me, with a half smile and a half frown.

Seeing Avalette coming out of her shell with her best friend Isabella, I made the right call in contacting her.  I did hear they are planning on going shopping tomorrow and then going to a night club, the Solar Star on Friday.  I think I will have Avalette small surprise show-up at the night club.

I called Marco's into the office and tell him Avalette and Isabella will be going out tomorrow, shopping.  Marco's gave me a big smile, "great to hear Avalette is going out!"  I told him that they need a detail.  Nothing huge.  Just a small detail that can keep them from harm.  Marco said, "yes, boss"  "They will take one vehicle Avalette and Isabella will be accompanied with Louis and Fernando."  I said, "perfect."

I also informed Marco's about the two of them will be going to the night club, the Solar Star on Friday.  Marco's gave me a frown.  He reminded me, that particular night club is ran by Chad Leyman, and that night club is off limits to us.  "Hmm, you are right, it slipped my mind."  "We will have to have the girls detail stay in the vehicle and they will be accompanied by Avalette special surprise," as I smiled devilishly at Marco's.

I also wanted to know what our little shit head has been up to lately?  What Marco's told me was hilarious.  Samuel was put on a very short leash by his father; ever since he got caught in a photo being hauled to his car by his driver and his friend Chad , wasted.  I asked with a grin on my face, "oh, who took the photo?"  I was hoping to get some copies for later use.  But Marco's frowned, "looks like the father took care of the photographer."  "He bought all the photos and the negatives, he had them destroyed."  Of course he did, "is there any other evidence?"  My fingers are crossed but I am not hold no to any hope of that.  To my surprise with a shitty ass grin Marco's said, "there is."  I said with great pleasure, "where and by whom"?  Marco's handed me the photo's that our boys captured of the incident.  I smiled, "good work!"  I put the photo's in the file and locked it away in the safe.

I am so exicted about going shopping with my best friend, Isabella.  I hardly slept last night.  I have been dreaming of this dress, ever since I saw it at Foushee Elegant boutique a couple of months ago.  I of course at that time was just window shopping.  God, that seems like a life time ago.

I freshened up and I put on a simple floral dress.  Then I headed over to Isabella's room.  Of course, she has been up for hours.  Isabella's makeup is fully done.  Her hair is immaculate, everything is in place.  Everytime I see her, she makes me smile.  I asked Isabella if she was ready to go?  And of course her whole face lite up as she said yes mischievously.

Both of us slid into the waiting vehicle.  The driver was Fernando and in the passenger seat there sat Louis.  I told them both good morning.  Of course they smiled and said. "good morning princess and Miss Valentino."  The two of us smiled at them.

Fernado, with a half smiling smile, asked, "where are you two heading too?"  I laughed, "oh you guys know, then both Isabella and I yelled, "shopping until we drop!"  Our first stop is Foushee Elegant boutique in New Haven.

When we arrived at the boutique I had a huge smile on my face.  As we where browsing through the dress racks.  I noticed two ladies walking into the boutique.  One seemed to be the daughter and the other the mother.  They both seem to carry an aura of arrogance and self righteousness.  I rolled my eyes, I have seen too many of these rich pretentious asses to last me a life time.

As I was about to look away the younger lady glanced around the store and I caught a really good look at her.  Oh my, that was the woman I saw at Roman Italian restaurant kissing Samuel.  Oh hell, fucking no!

I pulled out my phone and snapped a couple of photo's of the young woman walking around the boutique.  I then sent the photo to my papa with a text message stating that the woman in these photo's is the person I saw kissing Samuel.  Then the next text I sent I asked papa if he could find out who she is for me?  Papa replied came immediately, anything for my princess.  I typed back thank you papa, you are the best.
