( Whites POV)
We also have a diner where you can go for a break or refreshment, and there will be seat for everyone present at the ceminar, also we can make available some snacks and drinks if you don't have that handles already; it seems he hasn't been listening to me, Mr Eric are you listening? snapping him out of his thoughts; Yes I understand everything you said and I will keep them in mind , If you don't mind I'll like us to have dinner so we can talk a little more on what the event will look like and the protocols needed, he surprisingly asked. Immediately I noticed a lump in my throat, why is it so difficult to respond to this man, his like every other client, what is up with today? I would be rather busy today Mr Eric, I replied almost unsure. I believe I am a client and should be treated as such, except of cause the treatment promised on the flier you gave me is just hand written, Miss Right? I knew at this point he didn't just come for the business; ok Mr Eric we can have dinner but please it could be strictly business, I said a little rudely. That's a date then I'll have my driver pick you up at 7 please do not disappoint, have a nice day miss White. he walks out.
What just happened? Did Mr. Eric, one of the Richest men in the world just ask me out on a date indirectly? I knew the minute he walked through that door he wasn't just here to discuss business, his actions portray power and confidence, too confident to be precise.
Sitting on my chair I thought for a long time before it hit me, that was why May sounded tamed and self controlled, his aura made her submit, I mean any woman in his presence would. looking at the clock I realised I had just 2 hours before the dinner , "date".
Looking at my reflection I put on the finishing touches of my make up, a little red lipstick to compliment my all black outfit and my little diamond pendant. l packed my hair back and held it together with some fancy pins, I do hope that would do the trick. Putting on my black hills I give a final glance to the lady in the mirror, satisfied at what I was seeing I walked to my door to lock up and head out. Mr Eric's driver has been outside waiting for the past 20minutes, I can't help but delay him a little, I had to look good tonight.
steping out the door I see the driver standing beside a limo with the door open; good evening Miss Right, please sit comfortably he says as I sit in the comfortable interior, he walks over to the drivers sit and takes one last look at me from the rare mirror before he drives off, am not sure I responded to his nice gesture.
So Mr . . . . . trying to break the tension in the air, Ray, just call me Ray he responded coldly. Ok Ray how long have you been working for your boss? I asked ,. about 20 years now he said coldly again. Twenty years that's really a long time I said with my eyes wide open and lacking what to say we share a moment of comfortable silence.
Reaching out destination Ray steps out and opens my door gesturing for me to high light the vehicle. I stare in awe at the the flamboyant restaurant, this place is expensive I thought to myself. Approaching the front desk I meet the receptionist, smiling broadly , Good evening madam, welcome to sweet Italy do you have any reservations? she asks in a nicely balanced tone, almost like a robot, I think so, am having a dinner meeting with Mr Eric I said noticing the light in her eyes fade even though the smile was still there. Ok I'll take you to him she said grabbing a notepad and leads me to him. Welcome miss Right I was beginning to think you wouldn't make it he said rising to his feet; I am a keeper of promises Mr Eric, I reply as we exchange pleasantries. He gestures for me to sit down as he waves the receptionist away not glancing at her for once. You look absolutely stunning miss Right, I have to confess you have a good fashion light, flattering me, Oh Mr Eric you seem to have a slick tougue there, can we head straight to why am here I say showing no interest in his actions at all, at least that's what I think am doing. He smirks at my words in a rather impressed way, We just got here can we at least place our orders first, you won't want to waste your efforts of looking this beautiful only to do business, let's place orders please he said. Ok then let's order I say picking up the menu. What's your favorite Italian dish he asked in a very excited tone. What's with this guy?
