Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 101

VICTORIA'S POV...

I sat in my personal jewellery making room on the third floor of the mansion. Again, Laess has set it for me. I mostly don't have to go outside for anything and it's very much convenient for me.

Keeping the design draft before me, I am giving 'Vast Eye' an existence. I kept the red and white theme for the stones.

My design also supports peace and love with its beauty.

For now, it's a pendant and later, I will make a set from it.

It didn't take too long like the design draft but a day only. When you have a clear design in mind it's easier to give it a shape.

After I was done, it was finally the fifteenth day. The last date of handing over the jewellery. Keeping it in the black velvet box with a logo of mine, I sent it to the Art gallery.

Tomorrow evening is the exhibition and I am so excited!

***********

Soon the day of the exhibition arrived. My date is my husband of course. We both wore black, matching each other's outfits, created by the famous Jackson D.

Both I and Aless went out. Our limousine is waiting for us and instead of Calvin, Sage is here today along with our bodyguards.

I don't know why, but my husband has set lots of bodyguards around us these days. Mostly, around me. I never asked him the reason though.

Sage hold the car door for us and we went inside. As we settled, the car started moving, the more we moved forward, getting nearer to the Art gallery, the more I am nervous to my feet.

I felt a soft touch on my back. My heart flipped, as I turned to the man beside me. His deep blue eyes are misty in concern.

"Nervous?" He asked, seeing through me.

There is no point in hiding and I nodded. "Yeah, a little bit."

He smiled, pulling me closer. "You shouldn't be. Your design is exquisite, baby." He kissed on top of my head.

"Wh... What if something unwanted happens?" I looked up at him, feeling a little uneasy.

He shook his head, pulling me closer to him. "Nothing will happen. You are over thinking. Everything will be fine."

I leaned against his chest, feeling a little relieved from the stress I am in for the last fifteen days.

Soon, the car pulled before the lavish Art gallery. Adornet Art Gallery.

The car door opened, and I stepped out along with my husband.

Looking around, it felt that almost half of the city has arrived to attend this art exhibition. And why not? The exhibition has been sponsored by one of the biggest investment companies in Europe, which also has a vast investment in the American Market.

Adornet is one of them. The top shareholder is Perficient Global. They recently bought the shares and make it run into the market.

I looked up at the huge Art gallery. The logo 'Adornet Art Gallery' is bold and bright.

One of the biggest exhibitions and my first time as an independent designer on such a big platform.

Once again, I felt my hands turning cold. But, the anxiety could not spread as I felt Alessandro's warm hand on my back, caressing in assurance.

"Take a deep breath. Calm down, sweetheart." I heard his content whisper which eventually helped me to relax.

I plunged my right arm into his left one and looked up at him.

"Ready?" He asked and I nodded firmly.

"Yes," I replied.

"I have to be ready, overcoming my anxiety. This is one of the rare opportunities and I don't want to stay behind.

This one is more special for me because, I wasn't even allowed to enter the competition, but Alessandro helped me to get it. If not for me, then at least for him, I am ready.
