Augustus welcomed them into his office, “I knew you would love her to wear one of the clothes for tonight which was why I tried my best to make sure they were available.”“That’s very good of you,” Sean replied, leading Athena the couch in the office.“How nice it is to see you again,” Augustus took her hand and kissed her knuckles, “I must have you know that designing these dresses with you in my mind is the best work I have done all my life.”Athena smiled at him, “don’t flatter me but thank you.” “It’s not a flatter but the honest truth.”Normally, Sean would have smiled at their conversation but seeing the flirt in Augustus eyes and the way Athena was smiling at him, the smile she hasn’t given to him since yesterday, he felt the same feeling like the night in the party and was enveloped with the urge of shunning him away and reminding him of his place. B

Athena nodded once more while Leo chuckled, damn, why is it that whenever he was near Athena and Sean, he use to have enough fun that would last him till when he would meet them again? He sat back and relaxed on his chair, waiting for the machine to come up, oh he just can’t wait.As they waited, Sean and Leo bid on three different items which they have no mind of taking home and just concluded to let them have their items back and just make the payments. Finally, the time Leo has been waiting for arrived and he couldn’t keep the smile off his lips, he glanced at Frank who was happy and ready to start his bidding and shook his head softly, if only he knows what was coming for him. Not only the fact that Athena would be bidding with five dollars extra but also the embarrassment Frank would sustained during the process, he almost felt sorry for the poor boy.The auctioneer began, “and right now, we have the Malcolm Schick’s legendary sewing machine, t

Not able to get the answer, Sean glanced at Athena, with the street lights, he could be able to see that her eyes were closed and he wondered if she was asleep, he leaned a little closer to her and gazed on her beautiful face, she was more beautiful than the first time he had seen her, and with that he wondered why she couldn’t see the fact, why can’t she see that he is the only man that can take care of her, why can’t she be like other women and go where the money is? But that little difference was what attracted him to her in the first place, how she was different from every other women he had known.Many women would admit to loving him now but only he knew that more than half of them were interested in his money, they love his money and not him. And when he had seen her that night in the club, while a lot of women would have jumped into his arms on first glance, she didn’t even know who he was and had treated their first night as a mistake while someo

Athena tucked her hair that got in her face behind her ear, “I asked us to meet because you said there is something you want to tell me and I remember that I promised to call you when I am free, and this is it, I am free, so, what do you want to talk about.”“Athena,” he sighed, “please, don’t be cold with me.”“Really, that’s what you want to talk about? Need I remind you that you were the first one to be cold? You broke up with me in the street, all because I attended your fashion show and you didn’t want to be seen with me because I was dressed poorly. You didn’t bother to know what became of me, if I got home safely. Then when I came to you two weeks later, you embarrassed me by calling me a beggar repeatedly, then you said to your friends that I am a mother who pleaded with you to give me some money in order to feed my kids and since then I have refused to let you be. You used your fame against me, tell

Athena watched Sean leave and when he was out of sight, she turned to see TB glaring at her, “TB…”“Don’t,” he raised his hand to stop her, “Sean is right, you should do what you want, neither him nor I has the right to stop you.” He sighed, “I just wish he should be really true to you this time, Athena, I will really not want to see you the way you were the first time I saw you.” He forced a smile and heaved a deep breath, then he walked up to her and hugged her, “you love him, I know that now but if I am being really honest, during the past weeks, I had thought you have gotten over him and that you had your eyes on someone else,” he released her and looked the way Sean left and shrugged, “but I guess I thought wrong,” he smiled genuinely this time, “you know what, go try him out, if he hasn’t change, don’t hesitate to come back here, you are always welcome, also, it would be the perfect time to sort yourself out, know what you truly want.”“TB,” she sighed and hugged him aga
