Damn it. I secretly glared at Bennedix as he laughed at what Venice said, which I didn’t quite catch. They were talking about something that I don’t know, making me feel a bit left out. You see this man? He dragged me here then left me out of their conversation. I’m the only one that’s feeling awkward. Looks like they know each other very well for them to talk and laugh like this. Maybe Gavin also knows these two? Possible. Since they know Bennedix. I looked at Jasmine and Venice’s appearance. Jasmine is wearing a scarlet colored spaghetti strap long dress that’s showing her perfect curves. It’s quite daring because it’s backless and has a deep V-cut in the front showing her healthy, big… uhh… chest… I looked away from there and looked at Venice’s dress that looks simple yet elegant. It was a black off shoulder with a slit showing her white leg. Her hair is straightened in her back matching her night black dress. It really is a small world anyway. To think they know Bennedix, I
Us three looked at Benedix when he suddenly stood up. We were staying in a room one room apart from Gavin. Jasmine suddenly pulled me here when they saw a product. I sighed thinking that I may look like a tag since she's been pulling me ever since we've met. "I'll just take this call." Bennedix said while walking towards the door. I looked at the man sitting in the room, one room apart from us. He's just sitting there, looking at the stage. I looked at the stage and saw they were auctioning some rare silk from a known tribe. I glanced back at Gavin and saw that he's looking at his watch and then his back. Huh... Is he waiting for me? Well, I do say that I'm thirsty. And I'm almost gone for… I don't know… What time is it anyway? I looked at the two girls that were talking about the silk being presented before standing up. They looked at me synchronously making them look like twins. "Oh. You're going back?" Venice asked. I nodded and picked up my bottled water. They waved goodb
I was a bit startled, Gavin was also startled. My eyes wide open looking at him, it was a bit funny seeing Gavin's eyes widen. "Uh... You... You're waiting for the last item... Right?" I asked awkwardly. "Y-Yeah." He said as he looked in front. I bit my lower lip to contain my laughter. I was scared witless earlier but after seeing Gavin like this... I can't! Ahahaha It's so rare to see Gavin being shocked or whatever. He always looked powerful and such but now, he looks like he doesn't know what he's doing. He's so cute-- No, I mean strange! He's so strange. Tsk tsk. He is strange indeed. I pretended like nothing happened as I looked at the stage where the last item was. I froze for a moment and I saw a cage covered in red clothing. It looks the same as the cage where the girl was earlier... I looked at the people getting wild before I glance back at Gavin. He was wearing an expressionless face as he stared in front. Was it another girl that's inside the cage? I unbeli
A Hundred... Million... US dollars... What... How... No. JUST HOW MUCH MONEY DOES GAVIN HAVE?! I looked at him unbelievably. In my existence, I haven't encountered a real person that would give a 50M easily and I haven't seen a person that'll give 100M to a person. To buy A PERSON. I... What The auction fell into silence as they looked at Gavin. I mean, who wouldn't? He just bid a hundred million dollars! Double to the VP downstairs. I looked in the direction where the VP and the first lady were and saw both of them looking here. One looking with awe while the other one is looking with envy and contempt. I unconsciously let out a smirk at the one looking with envy. She glared at me as she looked at the man beside her. She can't do anything since it's beyond their capabilities. It must be hard on her to lose into a competition that she started. It was nice seeing her looking like that. But I’m too shocked to curse and show my victory to her. Still in shock, I was startled
I stared at her as she looked at me confused before bursting into laughter. She was laughing like I had said something ridiculous. “You’re being rude, idiot.”I looked at Venice as she rebuked Jasmine’s attitude. I looked at them without any expression but Venice just smiled at me before pointing to the table in the corner. “Let’s sit first then we can explain.” She said as she pulled Jasmine that’s still holding my arm, making me pull to where Venice is going. I felt like we’re kids having our older sister pull the youngest one as me being involved even though I haven't done anything wrong. I sighed as I sat across Venice and beside Jasmine, who stopped laughing and picked up the menu as she pointed many things. “I’ll have macaroons and strawberry frappe.” I ordered. I give the menu back to the waiter before looking at the kid that’s been watching me order my food. She’s smiling so brightly that it makes me want to just… pinch her. “I don’t like beating around the bush but let’
"...Yeah." I was taken aback when they suddenly exclaimed. Do they not watch TV? I thought most of the women would probably be into gossip in social media especially the forum for the elites. Ever since we made an appearance in public, the forum went into an uproar since no one knew that Gavin, the richest bachelor, is already married. "Omo! You looked so sexy that I would've thought of you as a rich bachelorette!" Jasmine exclaimed excitedly as she leaned towards me. "So... What is he like? Is he handsome?" "Is he treating you well?" "How did the two of you meet?" "Is he sweet?" "What's his job?" "How many years have you been married?" "Oh where did you go in your honey- ouch!" Jasmine massages her forehead that's turning into red because Venice slaps the shit out of her head. I gulped looking at her forehead before looking at Venice who's frowning at her. "Why would you ask that you little..." "Don't cuss, Vennie. That's so unlady-like." Jasmine pouted as she hid her
I sit comfortably as I observe our surroundings. It’s odd… There’s something odd right now. But I can’t point out what the hell it is. I sat up straight as I became more wary of my surroundings. I looked at the two ladies in front of me and saw that they were already chatting happily after their bickering moments earlier. “Uhh, by the way. Where’s Bennedix?” I asked, trying to change the subject. “I actually don’t know. He just told us that he’s going to meet a friend.” Venice said as she glanced at her phone to check if Bennedix texted her or something. I’m still in shock that they are siblings. I bet they also came from a very powerful family. I noticed Jasmine looking at me intently. I tilted my head a bit as I smiled at her slightly. “What is it?” I asked but she was just staring at me. Venice noticed it and I thought she'd say something but she just sighed and shook her head as she took a sip in her iced coffee. I guess she grew tired of her already. “Say, Maddie. I’m
I was surprised when Jasmine suddenly beamed a bright smile while waving her hands while Venice smiled a bit and nodded her head towards my direction. Gav…? I mentally gasped when I realized that it was Gavin. I froze in my seat when I felt a presence in my back. What... When... When did they arrive? I didn't look nor glanced at him and continued to stare at my almost done frappe. I don't think I can look at his face after all the things I said to these two... "Since when did the two of you arrive?" Venice asked, making me come to my senses. Gavin is the one I knew the most here. I should act normal... Or should I act like a devoted wife? "We've been here since earlier." Earlier... Bennedix answered like he's disappointed. I flinched, I noticed Gavin glanced at me for a bit as if he noticed my nervousness. If... If they've been here while I was talking nonsense then... "Haa... All of the ladies here were looking at me yet you didn't even notice our existence." Bennedix sa
