Billionaire Obsession

The sculpted asshole

Lily and Gina arrived at the party looking hot. Lily had worn a short, body con gown that showed off her curves while Lily was killing it in her off shoulder, emerald gown. Lily’s boyfriend Jeff was at the door to welcome them in. He tried to kiss his girlfriend Gina on the lips but Gina turned to offer him her cheeks mumbling something about him spoiling her lipstick. He gave a brief side hug to Lily and ushered them to a corner of the gallery.

There were a few people here and there all dressed like new money that wanted to show off. Lily was feeling bored already. There were a few display of artworks here and there. As if reading her mind, Jeff said, “The more valuable artworks are kept inside that room:, he pointed at a door that you wouldn’t even see until it was pointed out, “those ones are going to be auctioned off soon, Jeff said.

“Well, I’m anticipating the auction because I’m already bored. These artworks hanging here look so mid”, Lily said.

“I told you that your own artworks would beat these ones. You just don’t believe in yourself enough”, Gina said, “You could be making us a lot of money”

“This is modern art”, Jeff cut in, “Not everyone understands it hence not everyone would appreciate it”

“Hmmm”, lily snorted.

An artwork by the other corner of the room caught her attention and she left her friend and jeff to go take a look. As she approached, a waiter passed with several glasses of champagne balanced on his tray. Lily stopped to grab a glass and proceeded to the artwork that caught her eye.

It was propped on a shiny stand that fanned out like hands. It was a painting of a woman that looked to be in distress. She was in the nude, her breasts bare and her hands covering her private area. Her eyes looked like she had seen something that would haunt her for the rest of her life. There was a tag at the edge of the work that stated the name of the work and the price. It was titled: “Damsel in distress” The price was $25,000. Lily marveled at the price. “When will my artworks be valued at these prices?”, She soliloquized.

Lily was so engrossed in the artwork that she didn’t notice someone come stand by her. When she turned, she was so startled that she bumped into him and spilled her drink on him. She was mortified and started to apologize but was cut short by the deep baritone voice of an annoyed man “Watch where you are going, I don’t understand while you all are so careless these days”

Lily’s mortification turned to annoyance. Who was this asshole that was berating her when she clearly made a mistake and was trying to apologize. She looked up for the first time to the owner of the voice and almost caught her breath.

The man before her looked like he was sculpted by the gods. He was extremely handsome with a set of strong jaws that complimented his deep set eyes which were very light brown in color. His muscle build looked like he went to the gym every other day for the bulk.

Lily caught herself on time and managed to splutter “Well you were in my way”

“No I wasn’t. I was clearly out of your way and admiring the painting”, he said slightly annoyed, “Now you’ve ruined my suit”

Lily noticed at that point that he was the only gentleman in the room putting on a suit; a well tailored Italian suit that suited him well.

“Well, I did try to apologize to.."

“Your apology is not going to change anything”, the man said and walked off leaving Lily all alone feeling like a fool.

Lily stood there wondering what on earth happened. What kimd of an asshole does not accept aplogoes simply because a drink was spilled on him. Just then her friend Gina came over and tapped her on the shoulder.
