Chapter 59 - The Deviation Tactic

Rosa tells Graysen that Brie likes fawning over good-looking and physically fit guys with good abs. Hermes Marco might develop some kind of liking to Brie since she is the one who constantly entertains him as Rosa tries to avoid him as much as possible.

This time, Brie's flirting can be put into good use for once. Well, Rosa has noticed how Brie flutters her eyes and flexes her body every time Hermes shows up.

He talks to Rosa about his idea of setting up Brie and Hermes on a date. Senator Graysen lays down the idea going into his head, "Is it okay with you if we go on a date with Brie and Hermes in tow?"

"Why not? If that can be our first step in setting them up together," she quickly answers.

Graysen taps his fingers on the island table staring at Rosa.

She adds, "I'm fine with it as long as the both of you, men, won't stir up trouble and fight."

They discuss how to go about it.

Rosa dials Brie's number. "Brie, let's have dinner at my bakeshop tomorrow night."

Graysen keeps his gaze at Rosa, waiting.

Rosa smiles at him, "Expect Brie to come. We are talking to her about food. And it's a free dinner."

He takes his phone from his pocket and composes a message and presses send.

Graysen hears a message notification right away from Hermes Marco: 'Would Rosa be there?'

Graysen: 'Yes'

Hermes Marco: 'Ok. See you.'

The bakeshop is turned into a private diner the next day. Rosa's staff announce to their customers that they have an exclusive event to justify them closing shop in the evening.

Brie looks perplexed once she steps inside the shop. She knew the shop is doing better than before according to Rosa's stories to her. Her eyes look around. But where are the customers? She looks at the table set for four.

Rosa comes out from the kitchen holding a tray of pasta and Angus steak followed by Graysen holding another tray.

"Please take your seat, my lady," Rosa instructs Brie.

Brie retorts, "With pleasure, your royal highness. I am so humbled to be served by two royalties of Ronia."

Rosa stretches her lips with a bright smile. Graysen helps in putting the plates on the table and takes the tray back to the kitchen. Rosa sits down as soon as Graysen returns and pulls a chair for her. Brie enjoys watching the couple's sweet moments.

Graysen already cozies in his seat when they hear the shop's entrance door opens.

"Hi, guys. Sorry, too much work at the office. I hope I didn't make you wait that long," Hermes Marco greets them as he settles in his chair.

"Since when do you have to work hard?" Brie lifts her left brows at Hermes, "You seem to always have so much time showing up to almost all of Rosa's shoots and events."

Graysen glares at Brie. He tells her with a hushed tone, "I thought you are helping me."

"Well, I am," Brie snickers.
