atasha's P.O.V
The black strapless long dress fit perfectly on me, matching with the black stiletto and dark red lipstick. My brown hair just get refreshed and the false lashes and cat eye shaped eye liner makes my eyes look more intense than usual.
I look gorgeous, i have never thought the color black would suit me and my skin complexion, so i tend to avoid it, and because it's a color of mourning, but somehow, it fits perfectly for the situation i am in.
Tonight, we are having dinner with Helena and Nicholas, unlike the party we have planned, we decided to keep it a simple formal dinner instead, hosted in a five star restaurant in this big city.
Well, isn't it obvious ?
"Are you done yet ?" Angelo enters the room in a sudden. "How do i look ?" I ask him, just making sure it doesn't look weird, since he has more experience than i do.
"Wow... i am speechless, you look stunning, kind of, different" he says in an honest expression. Thank God it doesn't look weird. Since it is the first time i pick everything by myself since i arrive here.
"Young Sir, Miss, the car is waiting" i see John.
Remember ? The butler who witnessed our wedding. It was only him and the priest, making him kind of special somehow.
Now that i think about it, i haven't really see him or talk to him that much after the wedding. Is it possible that he was out ?
Never mind that, i need to focus on tonight's dinner party.
We head to the car and John drives it. Angelo usually drives but since we have guests, i guess we need to make it more formal, right ?
Also, i am kind of excited, there is something spices up inside of me, maybe i have reached a whole new level of myself ? That sounds weird, but i really feel like that.
We arrive at the restaurant that has exclusively been reserved for tonight. It's a bit spacious since there are only the four of us. John would wait somewhere else so he is not going to join us.
When we arrive, they aren't there yet. So, i make the setting for the seatings.
Not long after, as expected, they arrive here. Helena just look like her usual self, wearing a emerald green dress with matching jewels and a pale golden heels.
Meanwhile, Nicholas is there, being his usual self, wearing a formal suit, but this time, he puts a slightly more effort into his appearance.I wonder why ??? Just kidding, i know why.
"Now, it's nice seeing you all here" i start the conversation. We just have an usual talk. Nothing too interesting, until, i hit a more personal topic.
"So, how did the two of you met" i start speaking. Nicholas avert his gaze from me, meanwhile Helena put on a confident look on her face.
"Well..." regarding her look, i hope this is going to be an interesting one.
"He first entered our company as an ordinary man, at that time, i didn't even know about his existence" she starts while slightly playing with her loose hair.
"But he was such an excellent worker, i recognized him first amongst the other" he stares at her while smiling slightly. Annoying.
"And i never expected that he would be such a fine man"
"We started dating-"
I cut through her words for a moment, just out of curiousity (note the sarcasm)
"Was he single when you dated ?"Nicholas expression changes in a blink of eye. He has this uncomfortable look on his face, almost as if he just remember something bad.
Of course, honey, from now on i will be your nightmare."Yeah, he said he was single" she says while doing a certain hand gesture. She is definitely lying. It appear that she knows from the beginning that he was not single. But she just doesn't want to admit she is dating a married guy with a wife waiting for him in his home country. After all, for such a woman with lots of pride to fall for a 'poor" man to begin with, is already a shame in public eyes, nonetheless if they know he is married.
Those two, how evil.

Helena's P.O.V
"Ah, excuse me, i need to go to the bathroom" i excuse myself from their sight.
"Let me accompany you" suddenly, Sasha offer to accompany me to bathroom. I guess there is nothing wrong with letting her do so.
"Sure" both of us headed to the ladies room. I enter one of the toilet stall as she tidy her hair and clothes in the sink.
After doing my business, i leave the stall and see her reapplying her red lipstick.
"Helena, do you know ruining someone's relationship is bad ?" She says out of a sudden.
"Hm ? What do you mean ?" I ask her, utterly confused.
"You know what i mean, after all, you've done it"She finally finishes tidying herself. But, what does she mean by that.
She couldn't possibly know, right ? There is no way she would know the relationship i and Nicholas had other than what i have told her.But such a powerful woman like her, she might be able to find out in a blink of eye.
"You never know, it might hit you back in the end" she says those last words before leaving the bathroom before me.
That woman, i have a bad feeling about her. It just, it seems like she knows something, and it wouldn't be beneficial for me.
I should be more careful around her now.
She is dangerous.

Nicholas P.O.V
Helena has been acting strange ever since she got out from the bathroom. Did something happen ? Or is she on her period ? Women are complicated.
We finisb our dinner with The Cavier and head back to the house. On the way, Helena says something.
"You, be careful around that Sasha woman" she says as she put on a serious expression.
"She, seems to know something" i chuckle, there is no way someone would know about our relationship that far. Why would important people like them bother to dig in to my personal background ?
"Don't worry" i hold one of her hand on mine.
"My eyes are for you alone"
