Flashing lights nearly uncounted glistened from the ceiling, and tables laden with food and drinks spanned the length of the space. It was the grand company party being hosted on the highest floor of the building. Many people attended, including the Director of Finance who approached Christian anxiously. He whispered, "Boss, there's an issue. I checked the high-end fashion purchases for an undeclared woman on the company credit card."

Responding nonchalantly, Christian shrugged his shoulders, smiling wryly at his possessive behavior. "Let her. She's my future wife spending all of it." Christian appeared unconcerned by the excessive money wasted on the evening gown, as his sole goal was to meet you. However, since the start of the party, he was yet to see your new persona. Though he had waited for 9 years and dearly missed you, this was his chance to see your transformed self.

After some time, Christian's gaze caught a woman in an elegant red velvet dress. She also carried a Chanel handbag and had Saint Laurent heels on. Christian stared at the woman's elegant ensemble from afar before getting up and approaching her.

"You are an absolutely stunning, Angel." Christian muttered in her ear, his voice carrying a heavy and possessive accent. He wrapped his arms around the woman's petite figure and brought her close.

You, the woman wearing the stunning dress, smiled at his compliment. "You're quite handsome tonight as well, Boss."

Christian chuckled. "Are you complimenting or teasing?" He stood confidently, sported a black suit and tie complemented with a white shirt, looking quite alluring. His gaze made you wonder how many women he has been with, but often enough, this was simply a number.
