在野外被三个男人躁一夜

Chapter 377 - Dressed To Kill

She finally opened her eyes to confirm that he was not by her side. She felt his side of the bed, and it was already cold. He had left without saying goodbye.

"Hmmm." She did not know what to feel about that.

Although it was not the first time it happened, she was still concerned since they barely made up for their recent misunderstanding. She could not help but feel a bit insecure.

She checked around the room and already saw the telltale sign that he had already gone to work. He was not in the kitchen or on the balcony, preparing some form of a surprise for her.

"It\'s ok, Dani. At least you made up last night." She reminded herself, remembering his arms securely around her before she fell into a deep sleep.

That should be enough to reassure her that their relationship was doing fine. She had nothing to worry about it. She should not doubt love because it conquered all.

She finally slid out of bed and went straight to her vanity mirror. She was about to brush her hair and tie it up before going to the bathroom when she noticed a note with a rose on top of it.

I told you so. Dani could not help but admonished herself for doubting Alex. She could not blame her subconsciousness for feeling like a mess. It was her who could not keep it together.

D,

I am sorry if I have to leave early. There is an emergency at the office. Have dinner with me tonight.

Love A.

She could not help but feel the butterflies flying around her stomach due to his thoughtfulness as she placed the rose near her nose. She could smell the lingering perfume that he usually used when he went to the office.

Her earlier doubts quickly vanished, replaced by the excitement of seeing him again. "I love you, too." She uttered as she placed back the rose on the top of the table.

She excitedly went through her cabinet and checked the line of clothes inside, already thinking of what she would wear for their date.

She had to look extra beautiful for him tonight, she thought. She selected one dress after another, deciding whether she should wear something classy or a bit sexy.

It was times like this that she missed Jacky and her impeccable opinion regarding fashion. Although she also had a good fashion sense, still having another point of view was better than one.

Eventually, she found the perfect dress. It was classy and sexy but not too vulgar. It was just the right ensemble that could make Alex have a second look.

Her thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of her phone. "Hello, Jacky." Dani was excited to hear her friend\'s voice. She could not wait to share with her what happened yesterday.

But before she could tell her anything, she rattled on about one of the cases she was handling. There seemed to be some issue with it, and David wanted her at his office at the soonest time.

She had to set aside all thoughts of the dinner date for a later discussion. Her mind started thinking about the case, already analyzing the situation.

"Where are the files I told you to prepare?" She asked Jacky as soon as she arrived at her office.

She had worked hard on making this deal smooth, so she wondered what could have gone wrong. She quickly took her files with her and brought them to David\'s office to discuss the case.

After spending almost an hour at his office, she was glad that they found an easy resolution to the problem. The client and the other party were satisfied with the outcome of the meeting.

"How was the meeting?" Jacky asked as soon as she returned to her desk. She followed her into the room with another stock of files in her hand.

Not because she had successfully dodged a bullet, it did not mean that the fight was already over. She looked at the new case that was already waiting for her.

"Thankfully, it was just a minor issue. The clients were only being stubborn, but we managed to settle it without further conflicts." Dani told her as she settled comfortably on her chair.

She did not want to take the credit since David did most of the negotiation. She only did the paper works. But she was happy that their teamwork paid off.

"That sounds good. At least another case was closed." Jacky stated as she dropped the files on the side of her table, but she stopped as she noticed her clothes. "Anyway, you look fabulous in that dress."

She was surprised that her friend was wearing something special for dinner. As far as she could remember, she only wore business clothes when she went to business dinners.

"Do you think this is ok for dinner?" Dani excitedly asked as she stood from her chair and modeled the outfit to her friend.

It was not a new dress, but it was something that was in her rack for some time, waiting for its time to shine. She did buy it for a special occasion but never had the chance to wear it until now.

"Well, it is very eye-catching, definitely, a head-turner." Jacky complimented. "If that is what you are going for, but do you think it is appropriate for the dinner tonight." She questioned her intention.

She did not know what was going through the mind of her friend. But she liked that she was coming out of her shell and trying new things.

Being more daring about her outlook in life, maybe Alex did bring out the best in her.

"I was counting on the dress to work its magic," Dani explained to her friend, but before Jacky could respond to her, the phone on her desk started ringing.

Jacky had to excuse herself immediately and leave the discussion to continue later. But she was still confused with her friend\'s statement, but she had no time to follow it up at the moment as her load of work started filing up.

Dani, on the other hand, was quite satisfied with her chosen clothing. She could not wait for dinner to arrive, already seeing her date drooling over her.. She was indeed dressed to kill.
