108 Is it guilt? (1/2)
Isn't a little black dress common and go-to style by many girls?
Aren't lean girls in the mall numerous?
How many will he check thinking of her looking at the black dress?
Aarvi held the layer of cloth at the neckline of the dress and pulled it off with a little force. Then she snapped the elastic that was holding her long hair to shorten the length.
A layer of dress gracefully cascaded down to the floor as she took short steps, a dark multicolored colored cloth cowled around her slender neck, slightly shaking her head to cataract her long hair that rolled down resting at her waist. Her right hand gently parted her hair sideways while her left hand put on the sunglasses on her ears.
A complete transformation in just five seconds bulged Secretary Sawyer's eyes out of the socket without believing the sight. The transformation was like a crash on his thoughts.
Dax and Secretary Sawyer were yet to compose when she turned around and flashed a bewitching smile, calming their hearts instantly by bringing a smile on their faces.
'Boring?' Dax felt like nobody could adorn the elegance and gracefulness that she carried. 'My Dum Dum is out of the world.' He thought.
Going against his wish to follow her to see what unfolds, he returned to the office to wait for the news that Billy will face when Aarvi won't even face him yet she assured Dax that Billy couldn't pester him or other board members after that day.
'How could a dress transformation of my Dum Dum bring such trouble for Billy?' He has to accept the fate that he will burn with curiosity every single time she does something.
The curiosity wasn't only killing Dax, Secretary Sawyer was edgy to know what was going to happen to Billy when they weren't using any power or resources to shut him out. He had to force himself from asking Dax when the words were on his lips threatening to slip out.
On this end, Aarvi strolled to an open cafe in the mall which had a clear view of the large hall in the center of the mall. ”Excuse me, Miss, What would you like to have?”
Aarvi glanced at the waiter who had a faint professional smile trying to discern her identity, Aarvi didn't bother his gaze and ordered, ”Sweet and sour lime water, Thank you.” as she ditched the thought of coffee that came to her mind.
The waiter gave a modest bow and quickly left feeling mysterious about the air around the woman.
Aarvi saw Billy's secretary running out from the other hallway and flabbergasted. He held his chest breathing heavily watching the huge hall full of couples and youngsters.
”Ahhh... Boss...” Secretary groaned in pain and turned to Billy who was holding the wall to take a breath.
The hallway Aarvi walked was only 100 meters but the hallway they used was double of it so it was in Aarvi's expectation. She waited for him to look at the hall and pale in shock after seeing her first surprise.
Billy yowled at his secretary without caring about his public image, ”What are you looking at? Go and find...” His jaw dropped deep down, his eyes were popped out watching the hall full of people.
He felt his limbs weaken at the sight of many girls in the black dress. His face morphed with misery trying to count the girls in black dresses.
His secretary thought Billy was on the verge of tears and quickly patted his back, ”Boss, it's alright. Let's leave. I don't think Skylar International President could engage in common people activities.”
'Thap'
Billy slapped his secretary's arm and stood in compose as though he didn't feel his heart at the throat by the sight. ”Don't pretend like you know the President of Skylar. If she wanted fame, she would be trending in the news every day, she wants to live like common people hence she has hidden her identity.”
Secretary: ”...”
'Who is pretending like they know the President of Skylar International?' He thought and again tried to persuade him with another topic, ”President Craft, I don't think President of Skylar is a woman. I heard that it was just a rumor to keep Skylar trending.”
Billy sneered at his secretary without trying to understand uncovering the President of Skylar is like finding a needle in a haystack. His stubbornness won against his secretary's little brain, ”You are just good for nothing. Don't dare to slack at a crucial time. Find the lissom woman in a black dress.”
