"Want to dance?"

"Don't you save my number on your phone?" then I realized that voice.

It is Maxim's voice.

"Oh.. What do you want Mr. Daxton?" I said lazily.

"I'll pick you up at 7."

Is he asking me to go on a date with him?

"No, I'm not asking you to go on a date with me." Shoot!

I'm sure I'm not saying that out loud. What is he now? A mind reader?

"There's this business party invitation from Global Company today. I'm not going by myself and of course you should come with me, because as you know you're my personal assistant. I don't care If you're sick but you should come with me to this business party." he explained.

I keep quiet, my blood is boiling already.

"It's 6 pm now and I'll pick you up at 7." then he hang up.

What a jerk?!

I got up and went to my bathroom to get ready. I don't have any time so I just took a quick shower and got out.

I went to my closet to pick a dress. Damn! I don't have anything to wear. It's a business party, the dress that I just bought this afternoon is not formal enough for a party like that. What should I do now?

Drrt.. Drrtt..

I heard my phone vibrated on my nightstand.

'There is something at your door. Maxim.'

I frowned and went to my apartment door. There's a black box with white ribbon adorned it at the top of the box. I pick up the box and bring it to my room.

I open the box and there's a note, it says 'Wear me.'

I unwrapped the tissue paper and pulled out the most gorgeous dress I have ever seen.

The dress is vermilion in color, it falls elegantly to the floor covering my legs. It is made of a chiffon-like material, only a thin layer for the top while it is layered thickly for the bottom. The chiffon is crossed at my chest area before joining again at my back, leaving my arms and the small of my back perfectly visible.

The beautiful dress fits me like a glove, showing off curves I didn't know exists in my body.

It's already seven when I put my lipstick, then I heard my phone ringing. It's Maxim.

"I'm in your apartment lobby." He just said that and hang up.

Jerk.

I took the elevator and looked at the number counting down.

As I arrived at the lobby, I walked out of the elevator. Everyone in the lobby looking at me like I have had grown another head.

I see a man standing in the middle of the lobby, under the chandelier.

Oh wow! That jerk knows how to dress himself.

He looked at me. Mouth hangs open.

"Let's go. We're going late. And don't forget to shut your mouth." I said with a smirk and walk past him.

we got in his sport car and he drives his car to wherever the party being held.

 After 20 minutes ride, we arrived at the ball. I stay quiet throughout the ride.

We walk to the entrance of the ballroom. Just before we reach the door of the ballroom he whispered "Call me Maxim." then the butler opened the door for us.
