140- She Is Mine!

Marissa could sense lingering gazes from the men around her when she stepped into the nightclub. The grey shimmery dress she was wearing was catching the light with her every move. It was hardly covering her thighs, but Marissa wanted to take advantage of the chance when the kids were staying with their father. 

Though Sophie and Flint kept encouraging her to unwind, she never went with it.

She scanned her surroundings and found Gerard sitting at the bar.

"Hey," she greeted, sidling up next to him.

"Woah! Look at you!" His eyes lightened up, "You look beautiful. As always!"

Marissa laughed. Tonight, she felt different. Her black hair was down and was just secured from the front, "I know. Now you can keep your flattery to yourself, G." she then looked at his glass, "What are you drinking?"

"A whiskey. Want one?"

Marissa nodded and then checked her phone. She was sure that Rafael would try to contact her when wouldn't find her at home.
