Chapter 81
“You’re amazing” she smiled and said “I know right Audrey always believes in my talent since we were just kids he always knew what I was good at” she said with her hands scanning his whole body Stephanie didn’t like the way Ivana kept staring at her man and making her look like the third wheel and said “you know Audrey he always knows everything he is just perfect” as she moves her lips to his they began to kiss all over again ivana couldn’t stand the heat and immediately said excuse me I will be back when she left Stephanie immediately remove her lips.
Audrey smiled and said “are you that insecure you think she can take me away from you?”
She smiled and said “she can try but she can’t compete where she can’t compare before you met me she was your better half but now am your soul mate and trust me love no one I mean no one can come between us”
They both took glasses of champagne or wine from the waiter and they gave a toast to forever ” no one can ever come between us” Audrey said.
Ivana stood on stage and said “may I have everyone attention please” everyone attention turned to her ,”I want to say a big thank you to all my family friends fans that came out to support my talent especially my very special friend Audrey Brown” she said well looking directly at him and ” also for buying one of the most expensive painting tonight thank you Audrey for always supporting my dreams accepting my invitation at such short notice.”
“You’re always welcome” he whispered Stephanie felt offended all-over again as the waiters brought red wine for everyone present at the exhibition she also carried a glass raise it up and said “let’s all give a toast to success, love and Audrey Brown”
“Cheers” they all said at the same time and drank their wine everyone was smiling except Stephanie she could feel ivana was up to no good, she had the guts to flirt with her man right in front of her.
Ivana immediately said “everyone this isn’t just like other past exhibitions the floor is also open for a dance” she said while smiling as the music began to play “, stuck with you” by Ariana grande and justin bieber, the music was already playing when ivana in her elegant high heels stepped down from the stage with her killer walks she already had a change of outfit to a black short hot dress she went direct at Audrey and said “can I have this dance “he smiled looked at Stephanie and asked “is it okay if I have the first dance with the host?”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Stephanie found his question very insulting he was supposed to give her the first dance and he decided to choose Ivana over her she was trying so hard to control herself she faked a smile and said “sure why not” she was putting on a very big smile on her face as she watched ivana and Audrey leave for the dance floor Stephanie was still burning in rage she didn’t notice when she drank all the wine he in her hand stopped the waiter and grabbed another one.
At the dance floor it was so obvious Ivana was still into Audrey with her hands all over him he immediately felt uncomfortable and said “don’t you think we are overdoing things Ivana my girlfriend is watching” she smiled and whispered to his ear “really?”
“Is she the jealous type” Ivana asked he looked at her and said “wellll she has every reason to be considering how tightly you’re holding on to me me” she smiled again and said “I still can’t believe you’re speaking to me in this manner I mean I was your first love the first woman in your life the hot sex we use to have should I remind you again of those amazing moments Audrey we where so perfect” he looked deep into her eyes and whispered to her ear “we were just teenagers back then ivana and so?”
“Does that even matter” she replied “after all those years I still haven’t forgotten you our time together should I mention our encounter in the woods” she threatened
“Don’t even go there” he grabbed her hand. Why did she reply?
“I kept your secret safe with me all those years I never said anything to anyone but can that woman do the same for you? Ivana said
“Only I can keep your secret safe with me no one else” unknown to themStephanie was behind them and she had heard everything, she then said “well you’re wrong because I know his secret and I have been keeping it safe well can I have my boyfriend now” she said well smiling Ivana felt like dragging Stephanie outside with her hair she had gotten enough of Stephanie interfering with her make up with Audrey she looked at Stephanie faked a smile and said “sure you can take him”.
“Thank you” Stephanie replied as she grabbed Audrey’s hand so they could move to another side Audrey immediately put his hands around her waist and said “you know you look cute when you make this jealous face” she pushed his head and said you and that ivana girl where all over each other”r he smiled and said point of correction she was all over me.
Babe” he said while holding her face “the night is still young let’s not spoil it for anything in the world, now let’s enjoy the moment my love”as he gave her a kiss her forehead then moved to her cheek and to her lips “dancing with a stranger” by sam smith and Normani was already playing the lovebirds were lost in each other they were no longer going with the music.
Ivana was watching them feeling so envious she badly wanted what Stephanie had with Audrey she wants her man back one of her friends came closer to her and said “Audrey Brown looks so happy” she turned to look at her and replied “are you my friend or my enemy? Valerie”
Valarie knew how ruthless Ivana could be so she faked a smile and said “of course I am your friend ivana I am always on your side” she smiled and said “good then because the only woman meant for Audrey Brown is me he loved me before he can do it again and that Stephanie girl isn’t much of a competition I can easily get rid of her” she said while having this evil grin on her face.
Stephanie feet’s where already getting tired she holds Audrey hand and said can we go already “babe I am already so tired and it already getting late I have classes I can’t miss tomorrow” he looked down to her legs and said “you’re tired?” Yes she replied well then he say’s as he carries her up she immediately screamed everyone had to turn to look at them “put me down please babe” she kept begging him she was already embarrassed with everyone looking at them but Audrey doesn’t care he still took her to the car “why don’t you ever listen to me” she screamed he grabbed her Waist and said “because you drive me crazy” her heart immediately melt before she could utter another word ivana interrupted “leaving already Audrey without Coming to say goodbye to me” he smiled and said “I am sorry Ivana it actually slipped my mind Stephanie feet was already hurting I need to get her home”, is that so she said while looking at Stephanie well then drive safe as she went closer to him embrace him tightly and whisper to his ear thanks for coming we will keep in touch as she kissed his cheek Stephanie became insecure again and held Audrey’s hands tighter “we will be leaving now” Stephanie said “sure” ivana replied “you’re a pretty girl Stephanie take care of Audrey lots of girls will do anything to have him” Stephanie smiled and said “I will keep that in mind” she said and faked a smile and said “let’s go Audrey” she had taken enough of Ivana’s insult
The drive home from the art exhibition was a very silent one as no one talked to each other on the way just their breathes and the looks on their faces reassuring each other of their love for each other, Audrey tuned on the speaker of his car playing “thinking out loud” by Edsheeran.
