23 CHAPTER TWENTY TWO: THE RUINED DRESS

"Ma, a guy brought this, he said it is from Mark" her secretary told her.

"What else did he say?" She asked as she collected the bag.

"He said his boss said to leave tomorrow".

"I know that. Thanks" she said with a smile and the secretary left.

Melissa tried on the clothes and she got a shock at what she saw.

"What the crap is this!" She shouted that Monica, had to rush in.

She saw the clothes and was surprised herself.

"Maybe it is not your clothe ma" she said.

"It is definitely my because I was the only one that asked him to give me a big rose" she said confidently.

"But why did he make such mistake?".

" Mark is definitely not someone who makes silly mistakes and this is not the first time GE is sowing for me" she said with a frown. "Excuse me"

She took her coat, wore it and left for Drew's office. She opened the door immediately.

"Do you think my office to be a place you can just walk in and out as you wish?" He asked looking at her.

"Sorry it's an emergency" she said quickly because of the pressing issue.

Drew gave her a queer look. "Where exactly is your trousers?"

Melissa looked at her leg as if she just discovered that she's with no trousers. "That's exactly why I'm here" she replied with a frown.

He quickly gave her attention.

"One of Mark's guy delivered my dress now and when I tried it on, it is very bad" she rushed the words out.

There was a relief in his heart and he looked back to what he was doing before she came in.

"What's wrong with it?"

"It's too short".

Drew gave her a plain look as she raised her coat for him to see. He didn't say anything but went back to his work.

"You dont have anything to say?" She said in ire.

"Why are you getting angry at me? Did I sow you the clothe?" He asked.

"You are not taking it serious?" She replied.

"What do you want?" He asked blankly.

Melissa felt like crying. She didn't know why he is acting like that.

"Drew!" She called palely.

"Maybe it's not yours" he said softly.

"It's mine. I was the only one who used this type of rose" she said.

The day they went for their measurement, Drew met them there but they were almost through. He didn't even expect to meet them.

"Mark is not someone who makes mistakes" he said with much confidence.

"I know" she said softly.

"Manage it".

It was as if she heard it wrong. "What!" She glared at him. "How can you say that?" She said.

"What do you want from me?" He said sounding like she is really disturbing him.

"This is so not fair Drew" she said like she is going to cry.

"And what have I done?" He looked up at the pouting lady.

"If I'm to be your little sis will you have told me to wear such clothe to the anniversary?"

Drew dropped his pen and looked at her supporting his hands with his jaw.

"If I'm to manage this, will I also manage this?" She said wanly.

She opened her coat and revealed a full bouncing boobs, well colored and fresh. Drew was wowed that he opened mouth wide in shock and covered his eyes with his hand stylishly. Melissa felt so ashamed as she buttoned up quickly.

"What on earth is that?" He asked.

"Didn't you say I should manage it?" She frowned.

Drew closed his eyes, touched his forehead. The picture of that sumptuous boobs kept flashing on his mind which made him swallowed and gave a long sigh.

"Go dress properly and meet me at the garage" he said arranging the file he was treating.

"Where to?" Melissa asked bewildered.

"Don't be silly. Who would you want to see for the situation?" He asked arrogantly.

"Mark" she called happily and dashed out happily like a bairn.

They got to Mark's place very fast.

"Dr Kmetko" Mark called respectfully.

"Hi Mark. How are you?"

"Good sir. Miss O'Dell" he called Melissa and she bowed.

"What can I do for you sir?" He asked after offering them a seat.

"Her clothe is bad" he replied making sure the looks wasn't exempted.

Mark quickly looked at Melissa. "Bad?" He couldn't remember the last time someone sad the job is did was bad.

Melissa nods and handed him the clothe. Mark quickly brought out the clothe and his look wasn't different.

"Ma'am I made sure I followed the instruction given to me. I was damn careful with your. It was personally down by me" he said assuring her.

"The clothe is too short" she said softly.

"Please put it on let me take a look" he said and Melissa shook her head. "Ma'am I can't know what exactly is wrong if I don't see it" he said politely.

Melissa stood reluctantly and went to were she was directed to. She came out still having her coat on.

"Ma'am the coat".

Melissa slowly removed the coat. She was so shy as Drew's eyes was waiting for her to remove the coat. This is so bad for her.

"Perfect" Mark said smiling.

"Perfect!" The two said in amazement.

Mark gave them a little frown.

"See Mr Mark, this is nothing but nakedness. Just take a look at the back" she turned to reveal her well colored flawless back.

Drew frowned looking at her. "Why so her this? You have her measurements" he asked firmly.

"Don't be cross sir. It was one of your staff that came to me that ma'am sent her to do a little adjustment to her clothe" he said a little afraid knowing he just messed up.

"I didn't sent anyone" she snapped.

"But a lady came to me even my auxiliaries can testify" he said with so much guilt.

"And you couldn't contact her to confirm?" Drew asked thinking how silly he could be.

"She called you right in front of me ma'am".

"That's sure a lie. Did you confirm if it is my voice?"

"I don't recognize your voice".

Melissa knew that's is true because she seldom speak to the guy. She walked back to where she changed her clothes.

"What did she tell you she bears?" Drew asked.

He is trying to figure out who it could be.

"I don't think she mentioned it but she is one of the ladies that came around to measure" he replied.

Drew didn't speak for some seconds, he was trying to figure out who the lady could be.

"Who do you have in mind?" Melissa asked Drew as she came out.

"I'm surely getting my thought on someone but I don't want to accuse wrongly. Mark can you give a little description?"

"I can't really do that but I've got a hint" he said. "It's that lady who was trying to cling to you when you walked in. The very white on.

"Joanna" they chorused.

"I knew it" Melissa said under breath. "I don't know what I've got to do with that girl" she said in smothering anger.

"And you believed her?" He asked.

"Sir, she was quite convincing. I'm so sorry my mistake" he apologized.

"Sir, you better tell your wife to stay off me before I do what she will hate forever" she said sternly looking at Drew.

Drew didn't reply her.

"I'm damn serious here" she yowled.

Drew covered his ears. "Was I the one who instructed her to do it?" He eyed her.

"I don't care. Just tell her to stay off my gentle Lion before i devour her" she warned loudly.

He gave her a queer look. "Go tell her yourself and stop screaming into my ears" he said firml.

"Sir, that lady is your wife? I thought you aren't married" He was surprised that he is already married.

"Don't mind her. She made that up" he replied. "So what's the next solution? You sure know she has to put that on this weekend".

"Give me few minutes let me see what I can do" he replied.

Melissa was thinking of what to say to Joanna if he clothes couldn't be amended. This time she won't let it slide.

"I think I've got one" Mark said and they focused on him. "I'll just feel it with your material sir" he said.

"The one I used?"

"Yes sir. The customized one. I still have excess of it" he replied.

"Are you trying to say we are going to wear a match that day?" Melissa asked.

"Are you more concerned about your dress or the match?" Drew asked rudely.

"Hey don't be harsh. It's not my fault my clothe got ruined" she snapped.

"Is it mine?"

"Exactly yours. Isn't it because of you I get to be treated bad?" She replied with pride.

"Ladies can never be satisfied, especially this girl" he sighed. "If you don't like the match, you can wear the clothe like that or better still wear another" he said firmly.

"Never will that happen" she said quickly. "So that your girl will go about jubilating triumphantly that she won" she said with a derisive look.

Mark who has started working smiled at them.

"Then why wag your tongue at me?"

Melissa snorted. "What do you mean that I'm wagging my tongue. Am I a dog?" She asked angrily.

"Answer that yourself" he said with a plain look.

"It is only me that you know how to annoy. If it is Joanna that is trying to pull down your underwear, you won't breathe a word" she said impishly.

"What the heck!" He exclaimed.

Melissa removed her tongue in mockery and Mark couldn't help but smirk.

"I should have just let you come alone, instead of ignoring my precious work and ending up with the most insulting lady in the universe" he said looking sternly at her.

"You know the situation was your fault and you needed to come fix it yourself" she mocked smiling.

"Since I've fixed it, you can head back yourself" he said and stood up.

"Where to?" She stood with him.

"Where was I coming from?" He asked.

"You can't leave, how do you expect me to return?" She asked almost a shout.

"Catch a taxi or has taxi stopped working?"

"I didn't come with my bag" she said with a frown.

"Since it's trekkable, trek" he said and wanted to leave but she pulled his hand.

"You must be kidding me! How on earth can you say such thing with the distance we covered before getting here" she asked with a foul look.

Drew intentionally said that knowing she's going to explode if she hears it.

"Since you know it is trekkable, why not give me your car key while you happily trek back to the office" she suggested smiling.

"Do you two always act like this? Mark asked smiling. "No wonder you are their target ma'am" he added.

Drew went back to sit.

"I thought you were leaving?" She asked in mockery.

Drew stood to leave but she pulled him back.

"I've shut my mouth" she said holding her lips.

She held Drew's hand with one hand and brought out her phone with the other. Drew looked at the hand that held his and he snorted.

"Will you holding me stop me from leaving?"

"It will alert me" she replied.

Melissa concentrated on her phone until a text entered.

What are you doing?

She pressed her lips together raising her nose when she saw the sender.

Chatting with online boyfriends? He texted again.

She looked at him sharply and decided to ignore him.

Don't be shy. Another text.

Why will I be and how is that your business? She texted.

I saw you grew silent and it is only when a lady is chatting with online boyfriends that they do grow silent.

There wasn't an expression on his face that if she'd tell anyone that he is the one texting her, they would deny.

What if I am? Does that in any way disturb you?

Why would it. I just want you to communicate to them to come to the hospital if they have any kind of disease affecting them. If it is STDs, we would treat them in private and that's because of you even if you have a bad mouth.

She looked at him again as she saw the text.

"Are you insinuating that I date diseased guys?" She talked in ire.

"Never. I'm only saying, nobody is above diseases and if they by chance have one they should come quickly so that they won't infect you" he replied.

"I hate this guy" she sworn. "Is it because you are said to be good looking that's why you think you are disease free?" She asked and grimaced.

"Yes I am" he said arrogantly.

Melissa eyed him. "Everybody might be of that thinking but not me. I know you have a serious and incurable disease that is really affecting that your mouth" she hissed and eyed him.

Drew laughed. "You are only saying all that because I know your guys have diseases" he mocked.

"My guys doesn't have disease but those girls that follows you around. And I don't care if they infect you" she retorted.

"That's why I am there to treat their diseases but yours..." He couldn't complete his sentence before his phone rang.

Drew call was an official one and it is a very long one.

"Ma'am come try the clothe" Mark called.

By the time she came back form where she went to try it on, Drew was already done with his call and laid on the sofa.

"Whoa! This is super amazing" she shouted as she looked at herself in the big mirror.

"You like it?" Mark asked smiling.

Even he himself didn't know it would fit so well.

"Like is an understatement. I love it" she said happily. "Drew's girl will definitely cry on Saturday" she said looking at Drew who pretends to be asleep. He didn't even shake. "Can I get few shots" she went to pick her phone and gave it to him.

"Sure"

Melissa took her pictures while stylishly talking to Drew and his lady fans. Drew never did as if he heard.

"Sir won't you take a look at the dress?" Mark asked.

"Not interested" he replied.

Melissa did as if she want to hit him but quickly put her hand behind her when he opened his eyes.

"Ma'am, I have a gift for you" Mark announced.

This made Drew sit up looking at Mark who went to get the gift.

He came back with a very attractive hair clip. It was decorated with beautiful stones and feathers.

"When I saw it, I couldn't help but getting one" he said giving it to her.

"What about your girl?" She asked softly.

"I was going to give it to Dr to give his girl but now I saw that you are the perfect one to have it" he said smiling.

"It's beautiful" she admires it. "Thanks" she said still scrutinizing it.

Melissa placed it beside her hair and it really added to her beauty. She smiled.

"Mark you didn't tell me that you have a thing for my assistant" Drew said.

"No I don't. Just like her personality" he replied.

"No worries, I give you the best assurance that she's free. Just that she's extreme stubborn and naughty. If you can cope with that, you are good to go" he said and Mark laughed.

"Hooking up with him isn't bad. At least I will be free from Lion ladies that wants to tear me raw if it is to be you" she said in disdain. "Thanks Mark for putting them to shame" she grinned.

Drew looked at her and shook his head.

"I'm so beautiful" she said rolling stylishly.

Drew smiled as he watch her flunct her perfectly shaped body in front of him.

"Won't you go change and let's head back" he said firmly and she dashed him a look.

Then something dropped in her mind.

"Mark, are you done with the clothes?" She asked.

"Yes ma'am. Was about to send it".

"Whose clothes are those?" Drew asked when Mark handed it to her.

"Do I have anyone aside my sisters?" She smiled at the clothes.

"Sir, who did you designed the clothe for before your staffs decided to use it?" Mark asked.

This question has been bugging him because he took his time on it.

"Why do you wanna know?"

"It's really a nice and time consuming one" Mark replied.

"Tell me if it is Joanna, so I can tell her as fast as possible. She will die with happiness" Melissa mocked laughing.

"It's someone special but since she stole it, I'll have to do another" he replied plainly.

"Oh I'm so sorry I didn't know I ruined your plan" she said with an apologetic look which was vividly fake.

"What a pretense" he said softly and she gritted her teeth at him.

"Mark, where did you get this?" She asked looking at the hair clip.

"You want more?" He asked.

"Yes for my sis".

"I can't say because I just bumped into it that day" he replied.

"Huh that's too bad. I want my sisters and I to wear it with our dresses" she said with a little frown.

"Then don't" Drew said.

"No it's too beautiful to ignore" she disagreed.

"What about online shop then" he asked.

"Yeah that's true" she jacked up.

The took a picture of it and start to search for it online but later stopped.

"Let's use your phone" she told Drew.

"Why?" he frowned.

"Your phone will be faster" she replied.

"No" he demured.

"Please be a Darling for once" she cajoled moving closer.

Drew looked at her with a skeptical look and adjusted but she moved closer.

"What?" He asked

Melissa looked at him and blinked her eyes severally.

"Oh gosh" Drew said and he gave her the phone.

"You are such a Darling" she ruffled his hair and she received a stern look, she just winked at him. "Let's do the search together" she said giving him back the phone.

Drew didn't argue, he collected the phone and helped her.

"Oh oh oh we found it" she shouted happily.

"You are too loud" he hushed and she eyed him in a funny way. "Which color do you want?"

"Let's get all the available one" she replied.

"Done, it would arrive by tomorrow" he said and put his phone on the stool beside him.

"At the office or home?"

"Office"

"Hmm thanks so much" she said hugging him tightly.

"Don't squeeze me to death" he said.

"With this your large body" she chuckled and pulled his nose.

"Melissa" he called touching his nose with a shock smile.

Melissa shrugs with pressed lips and went to give Mark a high five while Drew laughed at her.

"Thanks for the clip Mark" she said then went to remove the dress.

"I love that lady" Mark smiled.

"Then go for her" Drew said dryly.

"Will you allow that?" He asked smiling.

"Why not? It's not as if I own her or something" he replied plainly.

"Why do you go for her instead" he said calmly.

"Who? Melissa?" He asked and snorted.

"Yes. She's pretty nice".

"It's suicide" he shook his head.

"That's not true" Mark disagreed.

"She's beautiful and charming but when I'm ready to get married, I'll stay clear off her so as to have peace of mind" he said with a serious look.

"Drew" she called as she came out. "Why not buy one for Joanna, she will almost run crazy" she said just to make trouble. She was grinning from ear to ear.

"What did I just tell you?" He asked smiling Mark.

"Have you two been talking about me? What has poor me done?" She said with an innocent look.

"I told him you have a birth mouth" he replied.

"Am I?" She asked Mark and he shook his head. "You see, you are the only one that thinks like that" she mocked.

"That's because I'm the only living one" he said proudly.

She giggled. "If anyone is to be called nonliving, it should be you". She said with a belittling voice.

"Evidence".

"I have lot. You that do behave like a walking statue..."

"What!" He scoffed.

"You don't know? Now you know" she said laughing.

"Only heard it from you" he said casually.

"Do you think those your lady fans will want to tell you? They are too much in love. I'm in the best position to let you know" she said.

"Don't you have hidden feelings for me?"

"Me? Never can I. That your looks do annoy me. It looks like that of a dying plant" she said haughtily.

"I need to pull that lips of yours"

He pulled her to himse and tried to pull her mouth but she didn't allow him so he pulled her ear instead. She wanted to talk but she tried to pull her mouth which made her put her head down.

David came in and informed Drew that there's are someone people at the door.

"Who are they?" Drew asked.

"One said he is Mr Ben and wants to see Mr Mark" he replied.

"Let them in" he ordered.

"I can tell them to come later" Mark quickly asserted.

"No. Let them in" he said.

"See how you ruffled my hair" she complained.

"I can help straighten it" he said ruffling it the more.

"What is wrong with you" she said sternly handcombing her hair.

The door opened Chris and his boss walked in. The almost gave Melissa a shock. She didn't know they would ever get to meet again. She quickly laid on Drew's laps and this made him snorts and smile.

"Hello Mark" Ben greeted.

"Hello Mr Ben".

Then he saw Drew. "Is this not Dr Kmetko?" He was surprised to see Drew, he moved closer to greet him.

Drew gave him a bow to greet.

The man quickly took his seat right in front of them. "How are you Dr?" He asked with enthusiasm.

"I'm fine and you sir?" He said politely.

"Same" he smiled. "Is that your girl?" He asked d curiously.

"Sweetie, sit up and say hi" he whispered but he was clearly heard.

As she raised her head, Chris was so surprised to see the lady to be Melissa. Ever since he has been dealt with, he has been at the hospital. Unlike Melissa he still has scars on his face. If not for his boss, his face would have been totally ruined. Although his boss didn't know what he did because he had to lie that he was attacked by competitors. Even his arm was affected and he was warned by the doctor that if he love himself, he shouldn't try to over work it else it would be paralised. Him now seeing Drew today oozed all the pain out. He wished he was as powerful, he would have just make him feel the same pain he felt. Now seeing Melissa on his laps built his hatred.

Due to the fact that Melissa's hair was a little ruffled, Ben couldn't recognise her as she bowed to greet but Chris did.

"You look familiar" Ben said trying to think.

"She's Meli..." With the way Melissa looked at him, his words hung and he quickly corrected himself. "Miss Melissa O'Dell" he said clearing his throat.

"Yes that's true" he smiled. "No wonder you refused so many offer" he joked.

They understood him quite well.

"This is my personal assistant, Chris Declan" he introduced. "I think you should have met him" he added.

"Yes we have. It's quite a number of time" Drew said looking at Chris impassively.

Chris felt he was mocking him and he was sad.

"I never knew that" Ben said to Chris.

"We met at a friends place" Chris replied then looked at Melissa who wore no expression.

"Didn't know Mark is your guy" he smiled.

"He's the reason I'm here. He owns my meal ticket" Mark said smiling

"I should have known" Ben said.

"So what brought Mr Ben?" Mark asked.

"When I heard you were in town, I couldn't believe it. So I came to see for myself" he replied.

"My boss ordered me to come".

"Let me then use that opportunity to get a dress before you are sent back"

Mark and Ben begin to do their business while Chris sad head bent. Melissa looked at him and shook her head pitifully, then she clinged to Drew.

"Do you want to give the guy a heart pain?" Drew whispered to Melissa.

"How is that your pain?" She did in same manner.

"I'm acting for you. He feels like killing me" he smiled.

"Shut up and let's do something reasonable" she pinches him and he laughed.

"Do you want me to kiss you for prove of love?"

"Drew!" She called.

* * * * *

"I'm home" Melissa announced.

"Why are you this happy?" Tyndall asked smiling Melissa.

"If you see what happened at the office today" she smiled

The ladies gave her attention with a curious look.

"What happened?" They asked.

"My dears, sometimes life is very funny. Can you imagine, that when Mark brought my dress, it looks exactly like a call girl's" she laughing out loud.

Her sisters didn't find it funny at all.

"Call girl? How come?" Tyndall asked in grimace.

"When I wore it, it has a big opening by the chest that it hardly held my breast and also very short" she replied.

"Are you sure he didn't give you another's" Somaria asked.

"No. Just listen. I raced to Drew's office immediately. You know how he behaves now, he told me to manage it because I covered myself with my coat but when he saw the real thing....." She pointed at her chest and laughed.

Her sisters were looking at her, they don't really know what so funny about what she just said and they smiled looking at each other.

"He covered his eyes straight away. Like he couldn't take a second glance" she was still grinning.

"Why is he covering his eyes? All those his ladies do showcase theirs now" Tyndall mocked.

"Don't compare. We are talking about Melissa's not just anyone" Somaria said now laughing.

Melissa frowned. "And what does that suppose to mean?" She asked firmly.

"I was only answering her question" Somaria smiled.

"So no dress for you this weekend?" Tyndall asked.

"Don't you trust Drew? He won't sit back and watch. We head straight to Mark's. It was there we got to know that it was one of the staff that came to lie to him claiming I sent her" she replied.

"Who the hell would do that?" Tyndall asked astonishly.

"Who else could than my sworn enemy" she replied twisting the edge of her lips.

"And who is that?" Somaria asked.

"Have you forgotten the lady I told you about, who mad herself a rival for no reason?"

"That lady that acts so cold because of your closeness to Drew?" Tyndall asked.

"Yes that same lady" she replied.

"What an effrontery! She didn't even mind what you will do to her if you find out" Somaria said with disgust. "What exactly is her aim?"

"What else than not wanting me to wear same match" she replied.

"Did Mark fix it?" Tyndall asked.

"Of course he did. The funniest thing is that, that guy and I is going to where match now" she said as if she is not happy about it.

"Which guy?" Tyndall asked.

"You should know it is none else but Drew" Somaria replied.

"Wow! That's interesting" Tyndall laughed. "See what her silly plans turn to".

"It is called destiny" Somaria grinned.

"Your dress" she announced

They quickly collected it and checked it out.

"Whoa! This looks so gorgeous" Tyndall said with elate.

"Take a look at this" she brought out the hair clip.

"Wow!" They said in unism looking astonishly at the clip.

"This is so extravagant. Did Drew buy you this?"

"Why must it be Drew? He doesn't give such" she criticized.

"Not true" Somaria disagreed.

"Where did you buy it?" Tyndall asked.

"Mark gave it to me?" She smiled at it as if she is seeing Mark in there.

Her sisters gave her a suspicious look.

"Why would Mike give you such?" Somaria asked.

"He said he was going to give Drew to give his girl but when he saw me he changed his mind" she said smiling.

The girl understood immediately what Mark did and they giggled.

"What a nice guy" Somaria said now laughing.

"He's so nice and cool" Melissa who was oblivious to her message agreed.

"Hmm" Tyndall nods.

"That crone will almost die if not die when she sees you at the party" Somaria said smiling.

"I can't wait to see her face my dear" she said happily.

"She will sworn" Tyndall said.

Melissa smile. "Drew and I ordered for more and it will be delivered to the office tomorrow" she informed.

"That's nice" Tyndall said with elan.

"Try your dresses on"

They quickly changed and it fits so perfectly.

"This is a killer" Tyndall said unbelievably.

"I wasn't expecting it to be this perfect" Somaria said examining her dress.

"When it comes to Drew, expect perfection" Melissa said grinning.

"Big sis, let's just pray that we come back home whole especially you because those ladies are gonna be shocked" Tyndall said with an exaggerated voice. "So Big sis, you is your date?"

"Do you want to get me a date?" She asked like she was curious to know but all was a joke.

"She'll be sitting beside Drew so that's not a bother" Somaria said with a teasing voice.

"Drew has more than enough date to see me" Melissa said plainly.

"That's a lie. You two will sure seat together. Remember you had a date and you still sat with him" Tyndall reminded.

With that she remembered she saw Chris.

"That was for some reason but this year is not going to be like that" she tried to take them off the issue but the girls are much interested in it.

"Let's make a bet. 5000 dollars" Somaria said to Melissa.

"Mine will be 10000" Tyndall said.

"Don't be silly. Me sitting close to Drew might happen at times since he is not married" she said giving up.

"Drew is suppose to bring a data but he won't" Tyndall said confidently.

"How sure are you about that?" She asked with a mocking look.

"Let's bet" she replied.

"I saw Chris today" she said.

Immediately she said that their excitement flew.

"Where?" Somaria asked with a frown.

"His boss came to Mark's" she replied.

"Is his boss invited to the anniversary?" Tyndall asked with a grim look.

"Yes".

"I don't wish to see that guy ever again" Somaria said.

"If you see if. He is not as cute anymore. His face is full of scar. The person who dealt with him really did a good job" Melissa said.

"That's good for him" Somaria said.

"Well I don't hold any grude against him anymore. Let us both go our different ways" she said casually.

"He is a devil. Seeing you and Drew will almost make him cry" Tyndall said.

"Yes now. His boss even said I am Drew's girl" she smiled.

"What did Drew say to that" Tyndall asked curiously.

"Nothing. He seem to concur and it pained Chris" she said smugly.

"That's a tip of an iceberg. At the party, he will surely cry home" Somaria said in disdain.

Their security, came to inform them that there a guy who wants to deliver a package for Melissa.

"Let him in" she ordered.

The guys walked in. He doesn't look like a delivery guy to them. He got closer and bowed.

"May I help you?" Melissa asked.

"I was told to deliver this package to Miss Melissa O'Dell" he said handing the package to Tyndall who gave it to Melissa.

"From where please?" Melissa asked.

"I wasn't told ma'am. I was only instructed to deliver it from our company" he replied politely.

"Thank you so much" she smiled.

The guy bowed and left.

Tyndall ran to give the guy a tip but was cut off at the car he entered. It was even an entourage that opened the door for him.

"Who could send you a gift" Somaria asked.

"I don't know".

"Maybe secret admirer" she smiled.

Tyndall came back. "I'm suspicious of that guy" she said.

"Why?" Somaria asked

Melissa was still trying to search the list of her toasters if one could strike a plus.

"The guy came with escorts and luxurious car. A normal guy can't do that" she replied.

"I'm even scared to open the gift" she said looking queerly at the box.

"I'm really curious to see what is inside" Tyndall said with the look.

"Likewise I" Somaria added.

"It might be a bomb" Melissa got them scared.

The ladies looked at each other. Somaria carried the box and shook it.

"I don't think so" she said.

"How would you know?" Melissa argued.

"C'mon Big sis be positive" Tyndall gave a scolding voice.

"Who can send me a gift?" She soliloquize.

"How will you know if you don't open it" Somaria asked.

Before she finished her words, Tyndall was already pulling out a pair of gold shoe.

"Whoa!!!" Even Melissa wasn't exempted from the shock.

"This is super beautiful" Tyndall exclaimed.

She brought out the remainder in the box and there was also a matching bag.

"Who could send me such expensive thing?" Melissa asked.

"Maybe Drew" Somaria suggests.

"No. He will never send me something this way" she declined.

"Let me check how much it cost before we start to search who could afford it" Tyndall said picking her phone and in no time she saw it.

As they looked at the sparkling gold shoe on internet, it was written to be one of it's kind which its launching date is indefinite.

"Melly, how come you got a shoe that hasn't been lunched?" Somaria asked astonished.

"I don't know" she shrugs.

"This is surely a shoe few people can afford" Tyndall said.

"Yes. What do you think about that guy that works for your company?" Somaria asked.

"Anderson?" She called. "Definitely not him. This is a shoe that billionaires alone can afford not just a staff" she said firmly.

"I think Drew is the number one suspect. He is the only guy I know that loves to where things that has no replica" Tyndall said.

"I said that already" Somaria said with a confident look.

"I don't think so. Drew will never want to give something to me and do it this way. Moreover I know all his guys" she disagreed.

"Don't just conclude. Give him a call first" Tyndall suggests.

Melissa picked her phone and called Drew.

"Why are you calling me? Didn't we just leave each other?" Drew said immediately he picked his phone.

Melissa looked her sisters and frown.

"Just want to ask you something?" She said firmly.

"What?"

"Did you by chance send me anything?"

"Like what?"

"Did you send me anything?" She snapped.

"Why would I send you anything?" He asked arrogantly.

"You've started" she frowned.

"What is in the package?" He asked with a serious voice.

"It's a shoe and a matching bag. Drew it's looks so expensive" she said

"Is that why you think I'm the only guy who can afford it? Ma'am I'm not the richest in the world" he smiled.

"Be serious Drew. I'm scared of it" she said like a child.

"Why?"

"Because I don't know who could spend that much on me".

"C'mon Melly, you are popular amidst guys. It could be any of them. Sometimes this are reward of been beautiful. Trust me it doesn't need your fear" he calm her down.

"Ok" she sighed.

"Moreover the buyer should leave a note to give an hint. That could lead you to him" he said.

Immediately Tyndall searched the box and found a card.

"Yes there is" she told him.

"What's the content?"

"What's the content?" She asked Tyndall.

"See you at the anniversary" she replied.

Melissa told Drew

"Then you have to wear the shoe to find your sender".

"I won't wear what I don't know the source" she said with a frown.

"You business not mine".

"Thanks for the help".

"Don't worry your dream man will surface" he said in mockery and ended the call before she could reply.

"What a silly guy" she said and hissed.

"What are you to do now?" Tyndall asked.

"Nothing. I won't wear it" she said shaking her head.

'Then you won't get the answer to your question" Somaria said.
