During Lunch time in TRUNTS, you have to share tables with stuff you don't ever meet in person except for meetings, conferences, and sales inflation, is not a theory or conspiracy TRUNTS staff do not know each of their names except for the names tags and sort.
Brie sips her drink as she flipped the new bridal vogue magazine, from Kourtney Kardashian's and Travis Becker's wedding in Italy with the whole dolce & cabana customized wedding dress for Kourtney alongside the whole family that attended the wedding from Kendall the supermodel to Kim k and Kylie the business mogul with kris the mum-manager before I forget to mention Khloe as well. Brie sucks her teeth these people have so much money that their lives become the center of attention.
She flipped again reading about Paris Hilton's wedding as well plus Victoria Beckham's son's wedding with the billionaire daughter a model and actress. The poor average people don't get in magazines like this thinking about all these will drive you nuts do these people have personal problems or money solves it for them jade better take her job serious thousand out there will fly to that opportunity cause is not easy down here, she continues her reading when someone clear his throat putting his tray of lunch on the table it was a sauce, fried chicken with potatoes chips these lunches are common in Nigeria and mostly eaten every day of one's life especially if you're a fan of KFC.
"When do you start eating doughnuts with sprinkles- Brie look up to him after glancing at his food like she didn't notice he had KFC without hesitation she cut in again.
"Only jade eat that now you have to eat what she eats for what exactly Dominic". Dominic looks up to her as he chews his chicken.
"Slow down before you become all judgemental I don't see jade's name is written on the sprinkle box so stop" Dominic cuts in, Brie sigh resuming her magazine touring, it was awkward because Dominic never shares his table with anyone and that was making Brie uncomfortable.
"When was the last time you heard from jade- Brie take her eyes off the magazine for a sec glaring sternly at Dominic. It's really disturbing how much Dominic seems to be obsessed with jade while she was in TRUNTS all he did was make the innocent girl's life miserable and now he wanna act like he's missing her.
"What's with you about jade, are you sick because she's a millionaire now you can't get over it can't you," Brie asked sneering from her magazine still holding the magazine and talking to Dominic.
"No-no-no I mean I'm not surprised about girls like jade they are uh..- Brie sighed loudly this time about getting up from her seat Dominic hold her back.
"I was a dick right," he said surrendering his hands in the air.
"And you're still a dick no one is sharing that position with you" Brie interrupted him confidently.
"You did not mention the job she got and how miraculously can jade turn a millionaire within a week and that doesn't bother you how come she isn't she on Alex Perry's clothing model list" Brie quietly sits back and glances at her watch she has thirty minutes before getting back work.
"Is TRUNTS worth like a million dollars"? Brie asked furiously looking at Dominic who looked confused not knowing what to answer, she do sound sarcastic though!!!
"TRUNTS is worth more than that I mean I dunno the owner should know better beside I'm not in the finance department Lucy should know that not me-
"Jade can buy this building if that's what you wanna know and if is more than that she can as well stop nosing around Dominic and accept the fact she's rich now," Brie said dumping the magazine on the table taking her phone and got up on her feet walk to the door but came back for the magazine again perhaps it might have skipped her mind.
"I don't get tired of reading about celebrities so I might kill boredom with this since watching the movies in my office is now a crime-
"People like you make the Kardashians rich I don't see how someone make six figures with a camera on her face practically her whole life on camera-
Dominic cringed saying it like if the table is to turn around he won't rather be a TRUNTS superior to film his life for six figures.
"Are you talking about Kim Kardashian's because if you are then you need to wake up she can buy your life" Brie cut in defending.
"Yeah, I know that, have you ever thought for once what benefit do you get making whatever you call her rich-
"Don't get mad because I watch the Kardashian worry about yourself Dominic because I'm pretty sure if TRUNTS get close down god forbid your life will be pretty over get your life together and stop worrying about people that their life is accomplished for life" she sucked her lip on the straw in his Pepsi and left, the reason about the whole bridal thing wasn't about the Kardashian's she feels Anthony is going to propose she hasn't believed in love for a long time however getting involved with him after his split with his girlfriend live has been pretty awesome perhaps when jade is back they can make a good choice about wedding dresses pickup not like Kourtney or Paris Hilton she can't afford dresses like that may be something of luxury will do.
Anthony and Brie's relationship has been serious although they don't live in the same state is like five hours from here to where Anthony lives so she visits him by the weekend and they are perfectly okay with the distance. Just as she pull the door of her office open Anthony called talking about the devil Brie nutter to the phone as she picks it up and sat on her task chair with excitement the turnover is this Anthony had just lost his father and his mom is been diagnosed with cancer the way he sounds on the phone bickering and shivering his tone was anger specifically blaming someone for it, jade told him she will have to take the weekend off and come over.

Clinton and jade are in their separate rooms. (ECLIPSE OF THE HEART) plays in the background, having their separate stylist put them in their best outfits, jade feels nervous this isn't some Dominic bullies or a first date night with guys she doesn't like only use them for food or a nice time out this was something that feels she was going as Clinton girlfriend the fact all these is based on a lie wasn't hitting her, in six months she will walk away from all these techniques with enough cash that will settle her for life realizing not able to see Clinton again hurts her, she has to do it like is her last like Brie always says it can turn out very well and sometimes it's a lesson, either way, the experience is locked with you so make the best out of it.
Jade look so beautiful not the cost of the dress this time she wore a genuine smile somehow this gets to her so much if Clinton feels any type of way towards this ball, is a business ball specifically however she wants it to be something memorial to them not just attending as a fake couple.
Jade came out of her dressing room the hotel maid told her he was waiting for her downstairs, jade smiled at her not as broad as the smiles she shows Clinton, and the stylist helped her to the elevator while she was in the elevator with the stylist and the rest makeover team all she kept thinking about was Clinton, felt like he came in last night however with the whole pizza and movie thing she was so tired until now she hasn't finished stranger things and a new season is out.
Clinton smiled from the huge Mercedes Benz travel van, they helped her get into the car jade could see how all eyes were on her people taking pictures and videos of her dress, she felt at that moment like one of those times she just wanna be noticed by people, those lonely nights, those times she feels invisible, those times are skincare got to finish and she will ask Dominic for part of her salary because her ex will put her down blaming her for always using creams that are way too expensive, nights she weeps bitterly because her life is a mess filled with mistakes, nights she thinks how backward she is in life feeling stuck and her life will never make meaning at all, she will end up alone as an old 50 years old woman who was an aspiring beautician who didn't have money to start her brand so now she only has two dogs and a duplex downtown!!!!! Thankfully is not going to end that way at least her life is revolving and that's how it should be
"You look beautiful jade and your dress is gonna steal the show" jade thank him for sitting right beside him. She slayed haute couture dress she doesn't only feel like Kylie Jenner she felt Jade is taking London plus sooner she's going to be a rich girl representing her brand all over, her confidence boasts up Clinton look so amazing hopefully six months doesn't get anywhere closer.
"I love your suit as well, you absolutely slayed it" after the whole exchanged compliment they became so quiet they did not say a word to each other until they were closer to the museum where the ball is holding, bars where set side by side in other not to get mixed up with the media people, bloggers, photographers who were everywhere taking pictures of everything a lot of famous people will be in tonight that alone freaks jade out how can she be contagious towards this seeing someone like Beyoncé or Elon musk, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Bernard Arnault, Bill Gates, none of these matters significantly however they are high profile people that the whole world respect she is going to minimize the champagne drinking habit, only speaks two words I prefer a low profile and I'm into a beauty line for once she never doubt herself about owning a beauty line even if she did four years ago anytime she does say beauty line she feels inferior how are you an entrepreneur without a brand or space like shop or stand unit is totally different.
"Are you okay jade" Clinton finally asked, she told him she was fine this was not a time to nag like a baby for once showing him you got everything under control.
They both came down from the Mercedes van camera flashes on their faces as they make their way to the museum, well celebrity life is what celebrities themselves always say oh no I hate the cameras, I don't want my pictures taken I don't always want to be in the spotlight and she will wonder in her small living room facing her smart TV probably tired from work taking popcorn into her mouth simply watching one of those interviews of Travis Scott and Kanye west spitting about cameras being the most hectic things they will wish taken away from them.
jade had seen something like this in her life, the paparazzi were screaming famous people names as they clicks their camera she didn't quite get their attention but her dress actually did they didn't know her name or what section of celebrity she was in but seeing how much of attention she got from the paparazzi, Clinton pose for the camera as well she outdid herself as well, she had spent so many of her time watching METGALA, BET AWARDS, GRAMMY, etc how they poses plus been her self owning herself and fitting in makes everything seems so cool, Clinton kissed her making it known they were romantically attracted to each other she didn't quite read meaning to it if it was real or was for the attention in his eyes it shows he was into her he smiled at the right time, took her hands at the right time, place his hand on her body touching the perfect area without thinking twice she saw people blushing for them as they walk inside from the red carpet locking hands with the most handsome looking man on earth with his signature box braid he did this morning he had loosen them from the two French weave he always keeps she prefer the box broad to the French weave. His diamond watch reflected in the lights, and his tattoos engined on his hand matched her fair skin with her white acrylic nails.
the building is very tall without elevators which means every person whether bill gates or jade would have to walk down to the big hall where the ball is held, The British Museum is a public museum dedicated to human history, art, and culture located in the Bloomsbury area of London. Its permanent collection of eight million works is among the largest and most comprehensive in existence. It documents the story of human culture from its beginnings to the present.
"In museums, elevators can be so subtly integrated that you have to ask where they are. Sometimes, however, they're easy to find, because they are works of art themselves" Clinton said pressing a button jade to look so surprised she had thought there was no elevator because of how the building looked like, as they get in the lights where so dim you can barely see your partner, the chatter where low they only whisper. Clinton located their table holding jade hand.
Is later told the CEO of cola farms will be giving the speech regarding today's ball, back in the day it was always Clinton's dad who always give the speeches and he did that six times in a roll,
"It doesn't matter if they didn't appoint you as the speaker this year maybe next year-
Jade said supportively one thing that attracted Clinton was she is always supportive however he felt she pitied him, not only did they see him as the bad boy, playboy, they feel he should be a rapper or model a filmmaker was totally out of the line like they knew his intentions although the rapper thing wasn't his things he loves rap!!!
"I don't care about this stupid thing, my father took it seriously though as his life depends on it, I know how it feels to be here, and to other people is like you aren't" Clinton's tone very low jade barely could hear him anyways she did correctly heard him now she understands why they need him to have a wife maybe his child will change him or supposedly they will groom the child into what his father is like what if that's not what he wants perhaps he's still in love with his life is so much trouble to be rich.
"You mean your mom actually," jade said sharply the waiter brought in champagne towards them they both took one each as the waiter went to the next table slow classical music plays in the background.
"Yes, she thought somehow they will make me do the speech after her whole theory of getting married she said the cabals haven't seen my progress ever since my dad left so I'm like some piece of shit or some boy who can't take over the business-
"Hey slow down you don't need to say all this right now, 's fine Clinton I mean what does it any way we are here and that's what matters may be the cabals will see for themselves that you're more than capable to run this mutherfucking film making firm" Clinton held her tightly.
