They are going to keep teasing me all night now.
We left for the party. Thank god the after party was held in the same building only a few floors above on the rooftop of this stunning building. We all entered together. Now Evelyn's fencé Alex has also joined us. We all looked stunning in our clothes. As soon as we were inside we started to mingle with people from the industry. I always believe in making connections in the industry. It boosts your business and puts it on track for success.
“Oh! Hello Andy,” I said hey to one of the renowned names in the industry. He is very famous for his funky design and people go crazy for his unique design.
“Oh, my darling Grace”, he said immediately when he noticed me. He excused himself and then walked to hug me. We air kissed the cheeks.
“You are looking so stunning like always” he said once he broke the hug and then checked my fit.
“Wow I love the fit,” he said with a gasp, looking at my dress.
“Thank you, and you are looking so dashing like always,” I said, looking at his clothes. He is very fashionable. He smiled at me.
“By the way, your show was such a hit. I have only heard good words for all the guests,” he said, surprising me. I was not expecting it but I was happy. He was telling me how he liked all my designs, and he even gave me a few suggestions, and I carefully listened to them. It is very important for me. We were joined by a few more renowned names. Area and I were talking when I heard the murmurs becoming loud, and it made me look back. My husband entered the party like fucking show stopper in his all-Balck three-piece suit. He has also changed his clothes. His hair was nearly pulled back with few strands on his forehead making him look no less than a model.
“Fuck he is so fucking hot” Andy said as soon as he saw Erick.
“I will give anything to spend a night with him sucking his huge cock for once”, Andy said without any shame because he was so open about his sexuality and his needs. My face turned red because of anger because he was talking about my husband.
“Only if he said yes, I would have tasted him long ago,” Bailey, a well-known model, said while looking at him with a drooling mouth. She joined the conversation.
“He said no to you,” Andy asked, looking at her in disbelief. She is very beautiful and half of the businessmen are behind her.
“He didn't even look my way when I approached him,” she said with a sad yet disappointed look on her face.
“You think he is a man?” Andy asked with his eyes fixed on Erick who was busy talking with a few people. I boy on my lower lip when he said that.
“Nope! He is straight” Bailey said while sipping her.
“What if he turns gay for me?” Andy said with a smirk. I looked at him in disbelief when he wiggled his eyebrows at all of us. Aria chuckled while looking at my face. Andy was indeed a beautiful man with his cute French accent. Bailey chuckled but then her breath quickened.
“Oh my god, he is looking in our way”, Bailey said excitedly.
“How do I look?” she asked while pushing her hair back and showing her deep cleavage.
“Perfect!” Aria exclaimed while hiding her smirk behind her glass. I shot a glare at her but she was enjoying the conversation. It made her clear her throat and press her lips together.
“Fuck my sweet lord! He is looking here” Andy said with new excitement.
“Or rather, he is looking at me,” Andy said while giving his fluttery smile with newfound excitement. I immediately turned my head and looked at Erick. He was indeed looking here. I gulped the glass of golden liquid in one go before grabbing the other one from the passing waiter.
“Grace, darling just move a bit. Let him get a full view of my beauty” Andy said while flashing me a smile. Aria pressed her lips tight when he said that. She cleared her throat to hide her laughter. I was burning inside from a newfound fire.
“You guys must know him. After all, he walked for your winter collection, right!” Bailey exclaimed as soon as it came to her memory.
“Yeah, he did,” Aria said while sipping her champagne with a smirk on her lips. She knew what they were going to ask next.
“Let's go and talk with him. You can introduce us to him,” Bailey said with a sweet, innocent smile with not-so-innocent thoughts in her head.
“I will but don't get your hopes high. He is already taken” Aria said, clearing it while I kept drinking my champagne. I grabbed one more glass to quench the fire I was burning in. It only kept increasing by every passing second. Not only Andy and Bailey but every other person was looking at Erick with hunger in their eyes. They were looking at him as if they had never seen a man like him. Come on! He is not even that handsome. I scoffed internally, but I knew how true my statement was.
“What!” Andy exclaimed with a sour face. “I don't believe it” he refused to accept it.
“How do you know, and how are you sure about it?” Bailey was the next to throw the question at her. They refused to believe her. Before Aria could answer them Erick started to walk towards us.
“Oh god, he is coming in our way,” Andy exclaimed, making them look at him. I slightly turned my head to look at him. He was walking to us. I once again gulped the champagne in one go and then averted my eyes from him. I saw how his brow raised looking at my face. I didn't want him to notice it. Andy and Bailey were excited to meet him.
“This time, I will make sure he doesn't ignore me”, Bailey said with a newfound determination. I rolled my eyes when she said that. Erick stood behind me, and the very next second, his arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me to his hard chest. I was scared that people would judge me if they came to know about our relationship, but now that I know how all of them had their eyes on him. I wanted to show them who he belongs to. Erick had already made it clear that he didn't want to hide our marriage. He pressed a kiss on the side of my head before asking.
“What's wrong?” he whispered, unaware of the fire burning inside me. Andy and Bailey gaped looking at us.
“Andy and Bailey here are excited to meet you,” I said with a tight smile while looking at them. Aria once again hid her smirk behind her glass. She loves to enjoy the drama.
“Hey, nice to meet you”, Erick said politely, and I had never seen him talking like that. Their eyes widened and almost fell out of their eye sockets when he said.
“You must be my doll's friends?"
