RED FLAGS

Two

'I wish I had searched about Aiden Kings before leaving my office.' I think as I pace around dad's office. Dad is in a meeting that should be done in about five minutes. I need to see him and know what business he has with Aiden Kings.

My pacing stops when the door opens and dad gets in. His tired face lights up with a smile when he sees me and an involuntary smile forms in my face. I walk to him in large steps and immediately hug him.

"Hi dad." I mumble still hugging him, my eyes shut as I relax in his arms. A girl's got to love her dad. "How was your day?" I ask moving away from him and he lets out a tired breath.

"I've had better days." He answers tiredly and I slightly frown.

"Do you need me to chip in?" I ask slightly worried watching him as he walks to the table with a few drinks. He pours himself some scotch then walks to his chair and looks at me with a warm smile.

"No princess. I got this." He says and I walk to the seat in front of his desk and sit as I look at the scattered work on his desk.

"How about I do half of this and you do the other half?"

"No, no. It's okay honey. You have your show. Don't you have some preparations to do for the next show?" With that I remember about the man I'm supposed to expose.

"I do but I'm free for the day. So dad, you didn't introduce me to that man you were with." I say casually as I arrange the papers and files on his desk. And to think he has a secretary!

From the corner of my eye, I see him furrow his eyebrows and look at me skeptically. "Why? Did you want me to?"

"Yeah. I've never met him before."

"That's because he never attends any events."

"What did he want?"

"I know his father. He agreed to co-host a fundraising event with us."

"Oh!" I respond. "Here is your half of the work and here is mine." I say giving him the files as I pick mine. I stand ready to leave with the files on my left hand. "I need to leave dad. Say hi to mum and Naomi. I promised that I'd come on Friday for dinner." I go round his table and kiss his cheek then start walking towards the door.

"Take care honey." Dad shouts.

"I will." I shout back and go straight to dad's secretary, Dave.

"Dave. This is the last time I find dad's table in a mess, okay?" I ask sweetly. "The next time I do, you'll be clearing your desk instead." He nods vigorously with a small sorry and I scoff. I walk to the elevators then press the ground floor key.

Memories of the man that stood behind my dad start filling my mind. He was so handsome. But a douche. A player. The audience was excited to uncover him and maybe doing something different once in a while might make the show interesting. But how about I make it even more interesting?

Instead of my assistant, Carla, going after the cheating partners, I do it by myself? It will be interesting since people have requested this for some time now. How hard can it be? I'd just have to follow him then disclose him and make him pay for breaking people's hearts.

With that in mind, I smile as I walk to my red car. I drive to the club I had agreed to meet with the guy I found in this Tinder app. I check my make-up in the mirror then lose my jacket. I take my purse and place my phone in it and step out of my car. "What did he even look like again?" I mumble as different faces appear on my mind. I take out my phone once again and check his picture from the app.

"Black hair and green eyes." I memorize as I place the phone in my purse then start walking to the club elegantly. It's one of the best clubs in town and if he chose this place, then he must be loaded. Not that I care. I won't be seeing him again after all. All I need a good time. A really good time. Hope he doesn't disappoint.
