"Ugh, I hate this."
"What's wrong Mad?
"They invited me to organize the annual ball for the charity"
"And it's bad?"
"Too many annoying people, it could be better if they send the checks or bring the things what we need"
"Oh I see..."
Charlotte stopped as soon she saw Sebastian's driver in front of her outside the car.
"Hello Miss, is Madeleine Sullivan's office?"
"Yes."
Then he opened the door and Sebastian came out of the car.
He walked besides her and she walkes behind him.
"Maddie, someone came to see you" Charlotte interrupted to Madeleine who was chatting by phone.
"Mr. Carmine!!! Nice to meet you." The platinum blonde streched her hand and they shaked hands.
"Ms. Sullivan"
"Mr. Carmine, she is a good friend of mine, Charlotte."
"My pleasure, Mrs. Griffin"
He nodded and loose his jacket.
"Oh, do you know each other?"
"I've saw her in the office, her husband works for me"
"Oh, I see. "
"So..." Charlotte interrupted the akward silence "How did you..."
"He have a proyect, and I... no, we like to participate."
"Oh... That's good."
Charlotte felt dissapointed, and a mixture with unknown feelings, seeing a smiling Maddie, happy watching intensely Sebastian's face with those blue dark eyes.
"I'm sorry, I have to go. Marvin... I..."
Sebastian stood, and she gulped. Maddie stood too feeling a little bit sad, because her best friend had to go.
"Good bye, Mrs. Griffin. I was my pleasure to see you again."
"Good bye, Mr. Carmine."
She walked away, feeling somethig in her chest.
"A woman did...
He loved her"
Katrina's words haunted her, so she determimed to eliminate those feelings.

"Marvin, Marvin... I can't see you"
"Buuuu"
"Woah"
Charlotte faked be scared and laughed after seeing Marvin's reaction. It was fun to play with her son, then they got interrupted.
"Daddy!!"
Victor grabbed Marvin and kissed Charlotte on the forehead, she didn't try to avoid him, so that suprised him.
"Did you go with Maddie?"
"Yes, but I came early, Nina had to study for a test"
"I see, wanna go out for lunch?"
"Yeah, why not?"
*
"That's amazing Mr. Carmine! But can I ask you why?"
"Well Ms. Sullivan, my family's company supports this kind of projects, so I believe is the correct thing isn't?"
"Yes. Hmm is time to eat something, do you like to have lunch with me?"
"Yes, of course."
*
"Oh crap"
"What?"
"My boss is here... with Maddie"
Charlotte swallow hard her bite of orange chicken, and slowly turn to watch them. They look so perfect together.
"Mr. Griffin, what a pleasent surprise. Mrs. Griffin, we see us again"
"Hello Vic,"
"Sir. Hi Maddie, are you in a date or something?"
No.
Not again.
"No. We came in a business lunch, for the project that Gustave proposed"
"Ah yes, my bad I forgot it."
"See you later then. It was my pleasure Mrs. Griffin"
"Bye Charlie"
"Bye Maddie"
They continued with their food and Victor was upset. Charlotte felt even more uneasy about those two; until a text call her attention.
"Go to the bathroom"
She did and then, he appeared in front of her, and kissed her.
"So indifferent... I like that."
"Hey, he is, Vic..."
"Your present is ready, and I'm waiting for the ball, your friend already invited me"
Sebastian whispered on her ear, and then she locked her eyes with his, and she kissed him.
"She thinks that I'm gay, so I'm going to keep that, just for you; relax that face"
"Okey"
"I have to go."
She went back after he left her alone, she sat next to Victor and for the corner of the eye, saw him smiling evilly to her, until he tapped his index finger in the table and touched his pocket, she did the same and found something.
Her keys.
