Phoebe looked at the cheque Jason had made out to her for the dress to be worn to the luncheon and though the amount was beyond what she would have asked, it still did not impress her the way it had done at first. Now, she wanted it all and the way to get it was to become his wife.
The next day, Jason drove to Phoebe's apartment to take her to the luncheon.
She had on a clingy long red designer gown which had a heart shaped opening behind that ended just on her waist, leaving her back bare.
The dress was very daring because the sides of her breasts were not well covered as well. Her full breasts and voluptuous hips were accentuated.
She looked really ravishing and knew it but she still wanted to know what Jason thought of it and got her answer from the appreciative smile that spread through his face.
He held the door open for her and said as she got in, 'You look tempting'.
She smiled her thanks but said nothing. She had wanted to ask if she looked tempting enough to be more than a bed mate to him, to be something more permanent like a wife but she knew that she dared not say that if she wanted to continue to be close to Jason. She knew his type. He would just break up with her if he as much as suspected her intentions.
He went round to the driver side, got in and got the car started. He had asked his driver not to bother driving them to the perty. He wanted to drive himself.
They got to the venue of the luncheon and were welcomed by the people who were already there. It was being held in honour of a business associate based abroad and they were expecting him to make his appearance anytime soon.
Not long after their arrival, Mr. Kim Kwon came with his entourage. He was a Chinese tycoon who wanted to invest in alot of business ventures, Jason's company included.
Discussions were held and of course some men threw glances Phoebe's way.But it could not be compared to the jealous glances Phoebe got from the women who had wanted to be close to Jason but had not succeeded. Some didn't even care that he was there with someone. They still came to him, being too familiar with him and Phoebe had to endure it. Consoling herself with the fact that Jason had brought her and not them to the luncheon.
'Jason, it's so good to see you. It has been so long that you have come to see me'. One said to him.
'Cassandra, you are looking as lovely as always. I missed you too. It is just that I have been very busy with work'.
'If you had really missed me, you would have done something about it', Cassandra said looking at him with a suggestive smile.
'Eh, this here is my friend and companion, Phoebe. Phoebe,this is Cassandra, a very good friend of mine'. Jason said quickly. He wondered why women could not observe decorum when it was needed.
