Director Matthew Porter, being a man who craved recognition, always loved being the center of attention. Whether it was a charity banquet or red-carpet event, if he were invited, he was sure to attend. Especially if someone like Madam Rue would be in attendance. Just being able to say hello to the woman in an open setting was a valuable resource for someone like him.
Matthew was waiting for the opportune moment to approach Madam Rue when a lithe figure diverted him from his task. The woman who had caught his attention looked slightly distracted as she moved from one side of the room to the other. Matthew looked around the woman, trying to see if he could spot any man who looked particularly jealous, but there was no one. There were lots of men staring, but none who dared to move. The beauty before him was alone.
