After I shower and primp, I put on my new dress. I chose the maroon Alex Perry lace number that fits all my curves and is not too short. I found an exquisite pair of Jimmy Choo's in the same colour and I couldn't resist them.

Once I'm dressed I look at myself in the full-length mirror and realize that I don't scrub up to bad. My hearts pangs for Daniel to tell me how good I look.

Jenna arrives at 7.45pm and breezes through the door. She is dressed in a little black dress that sits nicely on her thighs and accentuates her petite frame and long legs...she has GREAT legs and since she has no kids, all her bits are in their original places. Her Louboutins are to die for and she looks like a glamazon.

"WOW" is all she says

I flush a little and she spins me around and gives me a wolf whistle.

"Stop!" I say with a smile.

"You look fantastic" she says. "So do you" I say immediately back to her and we both burst out laughing.

"OK...lets get this show on the road before I change my mind" I say with a bit of reluctance in my voice.

"Lets go," says Jenna and she leads me out to her car.

"What is tonight again?"

"It's the launch of D'Norris Whiskey," she says. "It's being sponsored by Styles Enterprises. I've been working with them for months to get this account".

Styles Enterprises, why does that name sound familiar?

"Oh fuck no!!!" Styles Enterprises?" I shriek. "That is the business that tried to take over Daniel's company." My heart is beating fast. I have never meet Harry Styles but I have heard enough about him and seen enough photos to know that I despise him. He has a different woman in his arm every week. He takes over companies, and hearts, then rips them apart. Luckily Daniel was able to get to the shareholders first before Styles got their hooks in.

We arrive at Jackson's and the place is packed. The streets have been blocked off and security is everywhere. Jenna leads us in through the front doors with a nod to her colleagues from Assign Events Management. She places a VIP card and lanyard around my neck and I can't help but giggle that it doesn't match my outfit.

Jackson's has been decorated in the D'Norris colours and posters of their labels litter the walls. Jenna has done a wonderful job tonight. As we move further into the club I see s few familiar faces from TV, music and movies being interviewed. Lyall Hemsworth is being asked about his affair with the married Jennifer Law and I can see the strain on his face. He is quickly pulled away by his brother, Curtis.

I also see Destiny Cyrus and Taylor Long with their entourage, dancing like the night will never end. There are constant rumors that these two are more than best friends. I can see why.

Jenna grabs two champagne glasses from the waiter and hands one to me. I must admit, I am a little star struck and scared stiff that I will make a fool of myself.

"I have to work for a short while, will you be ok?" Jenna asks downing her drink.

"Sure. You do what you have to do and I will try and mingle. Just don't forget that I am here," I say with a smile.

I'm glad she talked me, well forced really, into coming tonight. I think this is just what I needed. I can't help but think Daniel would have loved it.

It's been a while since Jenna left me to work and the place is really pumping now. There is standing room only and bodies are pressed shoulder to shoulder. The queue to the ladies room is 50 deep and the line to the bar is even longer. I can't make my mind up if I want another drink or the bathroom. I decide on another drink.
