Evan suddenly vanished into thin air for almost two weeks not telling her what to do or if there's any meeting she needs to attend without him.

Nada

She's looking at her desktop, with only its background on it. She doesn't have anything to do! It's like a punishment for her part! Good thing Cyril invited her to factory during his Monday round up so there's something that made her busy that day. But after that?

Nada

Mari stalked into Evan's social media to find out that he's in China the first few days of disappearance then currently in Vietnam. Food mostly appeared on his photos with him but sometimes he snapped with him women with different looks and attire. Domy said Evan usually goes out of the country to see how side streets evolved in the other side of the world and women sometimes goes along with it. So much Evan

The guy appeared on Thursday the second week of December just in time for interviews to fill in Stef's position. Of course he hired another woman but this one seems very jolly, waving excitedly to everyone as the woman walked in. That seems contagious that Mari was excited to have in the office only the girl will be joining January next week. Evan repeated the invites for Saturday to everyone then went out again.

"Oh wow," Primo gasped with a jaw that dropping to the floor. "This is not a condo!"

It's a penthouse actually and she did expect that it will be that grand knowing Evan's lifestyle. The only thing that's different with Evan is his van. A lot of artist portrait hanging on the wall. Most of it got a partner of exquisite tables below it with various beautiful bottles of alcoholic drinks. Whiskey, vodkas, Scotch and all. Billie knew some of it and also know how expensive are those. It's like a bar for every corner of the house.

Billie looked down on her tube leopard printed blouse and fitted jeans, "I think I'm underdressed"

"We are underdressed," she said laughing because there's too many modelesque people already walking on that party with various sleek dresses and suit. "Come on, we're here for free drinks"

She's nursing her second champagne drink and too many to mention finger foods when Evan found them. Mari saw Evan ealier with group of girls surrounded him so she didn't have the guts to greet him.

He's in a jeans and button down shirt. Very different to his guests.

The guy nodded to her, "Hey!"

"Happy birthday!"

The guy smiled, "Oh you know, huh?"

She wriggled her brows and produced a small box, "Of course I should know my boss' birthday"

Evan offered a small smile and looked at her right. Of course, Billie would catch his attention, specially know that she's blonde. "Ahm, Evan this is Billie, my bestfriend ever since I can't remember"

The guy already lifted his left hand to offer at the half of her line with those smirk she only see through his social media account then spoke, "Evan by the way, single and ready to mingle."

Billie laughed as Mari and Primo snorted, "Yeah me too, only I'm sure we both like chicks"

The guy took his hand very quickly and Mari laughed at Billie's statement. She cleared her throat, "And this is Primo, another bestfriend. He completed our trio"

Evan nodded once towards him and Primo wriggled his shoulders and offered his hand, "Me, I like guys and single too. I don't know if you want to mingle with me"

Evan looked at her in confusion even if he accepted that hand politely. "He's….?" Evan spoke then pointed Billie, "And she is….?"

Mari laughed, "I'm kind of in between isn't it great?"
