16 - De Raizel

Agnes lowered her head as her heart was fuming with blush, which presented a contrast to her outer cold body. But for some reason she had been growing warmer. Jairus again stretched his hand in a princely manner and Agnes slipped her arm into his as they walked out of the shop together.

"Uum...boss, where are we going? Can you please tell me now?" Agnes again questioned him assuming that maybe he would answer this time as his mood was quite good now. To her surprise he did reply to her this time and with details.

"We are going to a ball party. A lot of business tycoons from different countries will be attending and you are accompanying me as my partner Miss Regena." Agnes felt relieved as her secret wasn't out and all that was just her stupid assumption. But she felt a new feeling, nervousness.

After thirty minutes of driving they reached their destination. Jairus parked the car and took Agnes hand. While Agnes stole multiple glances with him while admiring how wonderful she looked.
