Chapter 9

I pulled out a beautiful sequence off shoulder red dress with a slit travelling up my thighs.

"Wowwww" Liam and Alexia said at the same time with adoration for the dress showing on their faces.

"This is looking so damn expensive" Liam said gaping.

" Of course it is a designer's dress" Alexia replied.

" Who could have sent this".

I saw a small note pecking from the under of the box, I checked the box and found a small note at the bottom.

Make sure to wear it tonight.

"Jessie , so you have been dating someone without letting us know" Alexia said while scowling.

" No I would have told you if I was" I said while still staring at the note in confusion and shock.

" But I do have my suspicions" .

"Really, who could that be?" alexia quirked her eyebrows in joy.

I was about to tell her who I suspected when I glanced up and my breath got stuck up in my thoart.

At the upper level by the railing stood Damien Knight gazing down at me with a devilish smile playing in his lip. He looked down and waved to me  and walked away. Immediately he did that I knew he was the one who sent the dress.

...

" What is  this, this is so absurd" I exclaimed seeing the crowd of reporters and paparazzi gathering where the functions is going to be held.

I glanced to the side and my eyes met one of the reporter in front of us who was broadcasting the situation and the state of the function live.

"As you all can see we are outside the Rosia Hotel where the event of the day is taking place" she turned to the hotel while pointing towards it. Today is the 50th anniversary of Knight Industries and most importantly today is the day he introduces to us to his fiancée.

" You have got to he kidding me" Liam snapped

" Obviously, they are paparazzi they are not here for the anniversary , they are just here for the fiancée introduction" alexia said

" Obviously, why else will they be there" I said sighing frustration.

I know you all have been waiting for this day, But the D-day has finally come and we MRU are here to do a live coverage tonight" The reporter continued.

" Can we just go inside?, I'm already getting frustrated"  Liam complained 

" Exactly, I'm going to have  headache  because of the flashes" alexia grumbled.

We were waiting and watching the paparazzi and camera men who were taking photos and celebrities and business tycoons on the red carpet.

" Let's just use the side door"Alexia said while pointing towards the side entrance.

" Very good idea" I said while holding up my red gown and walked over to the side entrance.

We made our way through the door and entered from the entrance to the hall where the event was holding.

The hall was beyond awesome. It was beautiful, and I was wowed. I have never seen anything like this before. But Knight industries has always been like this either it's endowed with luxury or nothing.

" Wow, I can't believe this, I'm so wowed"i thought alexia was commenting the hall but instead when I looked at her i found her staring at all the men in tuxedos while fanning her self " They look so hot".

" I need to get a drink, do you guys want one?" Liam asked while walking towards one of the waiter to grab a champagne for me and him since alexia ficus wasn't on us anymore.

...

As I was about to sip from my champagne, someone tapped on the mic and we turned to see our Vp there.  " Good evening my lovely ladies and gentlemen. We're very pleased to have you today, Thank you for all for joining us today.

" Ohh my gosh, the welcome speech is going to be a disaster if she is going to be taking it".

" Well if that's the case, does any one need ear plugs to block out the disaster?". Liam went on asking people..

After doing that he came to give us our ear plugs and also took his own. He then plugged his into is ear, tuning out the horrible voice if our Vp.

" Wow you must really be annoyed" I chuckled and shook my head in dismay.

I scanned the hall and noticed many popular faces surrounding us. Our board of tycoons, actress, models, business tycoons, politicians and actors. They were all in groups talking about everything and nothing, standing around the tables wearing the most expensive clothes in the all of new york.

And at the end of the hall I spotted the almighty Damien Knight talking to a small group of people.

His face was angled away from me but I could see the side of his soft lips,his prominent jaw and his long lashes. He was so perfect.

I found my myself blushing hard. What the hell his wrong with you jess? I tried to path down the redness on my check, perhaps I now share the same weakness with alexia.

"Ohhh my God, He is here" alexia squealed" he is looking flaming hot".

"Who is that?" I asked.

" Our crush" she pointed to a tall and huge man standing across the room, it took me a couple of seconds to recognize him.  And when I did he was no other than the 29 years old supermodel IAN SMITH.

All the thoughts of Damien immediately left me when I saw him.

" Wow, he is looking so freaking handsome"i squealed.

Okay, so let's go say hi and maybe he can sign on my breast" Alexia said almost crying out in joy.

" You dirty minded girl" I scolded her.

"But I don't think we should go"

" Let's go" alexia said dragging me along.

I immediately started protesting against it but alexia didn't bother to listen and started dragging me towards him but before we could talk to him a model like woman jumped I  front of us.

I was shocked

"Ian Smith isn't it?" She kept a seductive hand on his shoulder " Well I'm Elizabeth Save but everyone calls me lizzy"

" How could that idiot..." alexia was about to go up to Elizabeth to fight but I quickly grabbed her hand and dragged her back to our table.

Immediately we got to the table, alexia turned towards me wearing an angry look

" Why would you do that?, I was about to give her the taste of her own medicine, did she think she could just do that and go Scott free? Well if you want to leave her no problem but I will go back there to show her that she maybe popular but she is nobody to me" alexia ranted out angrily

As she was about to go back there I grabbed her hand again " Don't, if you don't want to get I  trouble".

" Why would I get in trouble?".

" Apart from the part that you would cause a science and give the paparazzi something to feed on, you will also tarnish the image of the company and most importantly you would be fired for beating up Mr.Knight fiancée".

" Did you just say Fiancée?" Alexia asked confusingly.

" Yes she is the one and only devil's fiancee".
