"I am so happy we finally meet Miss De Luna. I heard a lot about my grandson great progress since you became his teacher."

The so called Madam Trina said to me with a smile while we are inside a nearby cafe. After our encounter inside the Lockhart's Enterprise's lobby with Mr. Thomas. Madam Trina invited me to have a coffee with her.

I know I should declined. I also know that Mr. Thomas is giving me signal to say no and run far away from here. But there's something on Trent's mother elegant face that I can't understand. And just like my boss, I can't also defy her.

"I want to express how grateful I am to you for taking care of Triston." She said still smiling but I have a feeling that it's not genuine.

I try to return her smile.
"Oh M-Madam Lockhart you don't have to say that, I'm just doing my job."

She smiles again and I gulp. Her smile is giving me goosebumps.

"I bet you are really good at your job Miss De Luna. You're very passionate to your work, as well as to.. other things."

I slightly frown. Why I have a feeling that there's a double meaning about that hmm?

I'm thinking of what will I reply to her when his body guard, leans towards her and whisper something on her ears.

I see the change in Madam Lockhart's expression but she manage to hide it.

"Oh Miss De Luna, I'm sorry but I have to go now. As much as I love to talk to you about my grandson, there are some important things I can't abandon today."

She said and we both stands. I'm feeling quiet relieve that we're going to separates now.

"I understand Madam Lockhart I know you and your son are very busy person." I said giving her an understanding smile.

Yes very busy to keep your billions of moniesssss.

"Oh yes, the amount of work is really overwhelming. Especially now that the Lockhart's family are having an important celebration. Which reminds me..."

She raises her right hand and one of his security put a gold, shining, rectangular invitation on her hand.

"Of this." She put on my hand the golden invitation.

"Here take this, it's an exclusive invitation to the engagement ball of Trent's distant cousin on his father side. As a sign of gratitude to you Miss De Luna, I want you to attend this special celebration."

"O-Oh Madam I-I think I can't--"

"No, no Miss De Luna. I will not take a no for an answer. Don't worry I will provide the transportation that you will use for the ball ok? All you need to do is take a beauty rest and be ready for tomorrow. I want you to be there Sierrah, I want you to see for yourself our family."

She said then walk away, leaving me standing inside the cafe with confusion in my face and a golden invitation in my hand.
