Chapter 632 - Six Hundred And Thirty-Two: She Has A Beautiful Heart (1/2)
The third point of view:
To Anabelle, Isabella and Pedro were the only friends she had. She was sure those ones wouldn't betray her, unlike other females who are nothing but wolves in sheep clothing. To Anabelle, her team and working partners were just acquaintances. She wasn't in the market for any friend ever again.
Anabelle was led to the main table and there she met Alec, the CEO of the multi-global brand, ”Suez” the brand she just modeled their clothes.
She had met him on several occasions but their conversation had been more formal and not lasted more than a minute. Even when she decided to work with him on this summer project, her manager had been the one who handled the procedures. The only time they conversed was during one of the rehearsal sessions, he had come to check up on the clothes in case of amendments, particularly hers - she was the star of the occasion.
Sincerely, Anabelle had not expected him to talk to him since he was known to be all serious during business. But he did and was really a cool man. Having such a big brand at age thirty without coming from a rich background like hers, was a huge feat.. She admired him.
By the way, what was he even doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be selling his hotlines of clothing that would be booming right after the show? Why was he at a party hosted by the team? He was quite a strange man.
”Anabelle!” He called her with that foreign accent of his that was smooth to the hearing. He smiled at her, the two dimples at the side of his cheeks deepening.
Alright, Anabelle was not going to deny it, the man was handsome. Well, that's an understatement, he's kind of hot. He had this blueish green mesmerizing eyes and tousled brown hair that always looks as if he just stepped out of bed. But Anabelle knew the reason for that, she heard the other girls say it. As a designer who relies on inspiration, Mr. Alec had a way of ruffling his hair each time he ran out of ideas. It was as if doing so would bring back the much-needed idea.
Then he had two thick eyebrows and lashes that Anabelle was highly jealous of. How could God give a guy all that? It was so unfair. Hence, on one hand, Mr. Alec was a blessed man. Sadly, Anabelle was now into bad men with tattoos like Julie. She must be stupid to find those features on Julie's body hot - the previous Anabelle doesn't like bad boys.
”Have a seat,” He said, making space for her to take the seat he had kept empty all this while beside him.
Some of the girls who dinned with them at the long table, their features distorted at once the instant they saw Anabelle sit beside the man. They had tried to occupy the position but the man politely rejected them. Well, she's the top model, her treatment would be different. They choose to believe that, instead of the growing suspicion that Alec might be interested in Anabelle.
”Thank you, Mr. Alec,” Anabelle didn't reject the offer. After all, it wasn't every day that you get to sit with such a great personality.
Alec chuckled, ”Please stop that,”
”Stop what?” Anabelle was confused.
”Calling me Mr. Alec,” He smiled at her, ”You're the only one that calls me Alec and it makes me feel like we're standing on tradition. I don't like it, it's too restricting,”
