Amelia took a quick glance at the paper and gave a smile.
She looked at Zara and asked … Then what about the outfits?
Mam! Everything is almost fine. But we ordered 53 outfits including your outfit for the event. But we have received only 50 outfits… She replied.
Ok… And then?... Amelia asked again
And Mam…
Just call me Amelia… she said
But mam! Zara hesitated
I will not repeat again… Amelia said
Yes mam…. I mean miss Amelia…
Now continue…
As for the outfits, we have specially asked for two silk based dresses to match with our jewelry. But there are no silk dresses instead they are replaced with shiny satin…
After she finish Asher and Amelia looked at each other and smiled. Zara was confused. Miss… Did I say something wrong? Is it not satin? She asked with a doubt…
Hahaha… Amelia laughed and said, No… You are right about everything. I appreciate your memory, she said patting her shoulder.
Miss, so you already know everything?
Of Course! She does… Asher said proudly
You are right Zara; the three outfits are our highlights… so they will be delivered at the venue directly. And about the satin replacing the silk, our designer had already informed me that we couldn’t find the perfect silk.so it’s been replaced.
And you didn’t notice one thing, we asked them for outfits designed with sword lily flowers, but they have also designed Hibiscus and Gladiolus… Why is that? Amelia asked Zara
Zara thought for a while and said… May be to enhance the beauty of the Ruby jewelries, Hibiscus is designed…
That’s right… Asher said
As for Gladiolus… I don’t know Miss Amelia, she said scratching her head…
Gladiolus symbolizes strength, faithfulness and honor. It also signifies the “Remembrance” … that’s the reason it’s designed on our outfits…
She saw Amelia with admiring eyes…
Waaah! Miss Amelia, you are really great... She said with her wide open eyes
I know I am… Thank You for the compliment Zara…
You didn’t guess about Gladiolus but you are indeed smart for your age, Amelia complimented her.
While Zara thanking her, someone knocked at the door. A girl with low neck blouse and short skirt entered the room.
Hello mam! I’m Regina, The head-in-charge of the department.
Oh!
Ms. Regina! You used to be the head-in-charge, but now... “You are not”.
Mam…? I don’t understand.
Which means; you are fired. Said Asher
But mam I was late because I had a meeting with client.
Oh really? Amelia said by raising her eyebrow.
Amelia stood from her seat, came closer to Regina and slapped her.
You have such a guts that you lie to me…
I thought of giving you three month salary advance but now, you won’t even get a penny…
Jad… Amelia called her secretary and asked him to throw her out.
Yes Mam, he said and took Regina out of the room.
And Zara? … Amelia called her
Miss let me leave with 3 months’ salary, I didn’t lie to you… she said in a shaking voice
Hahaha… Asher laughed loudly. Amelia also couldn’t control her laugh seeing her innocent scary face.
Why? Don’t you want to work here anymore?
I want I want… she said by nodding her
Amelia smirked and said, I called you because I want you to be the head-in-charge of the department. Zara was startled.
Miss… I… she stuttered. What? Don’t you have the confidence, Amelia asked her.
Yes miss … I will not let you down. She bowed and thanked her.
Okay! It’s already past 6. Let’s leave now. said Amelia
And one more thing, you will be responsible for all the outfits, till the Models finish their show. Got it?
Yes Miss Amelia… she said and left the room.
Shall we leave? Amelia asked Asher and he nodded his head.
When they came out of the company, they saw a man leaning on the bike wearing a black t-shirt along with black leather jacket paired with black jeans. He removed his helmet… Amelia’s eyes were wide open.
She looked at him and also rolled her eye balls and looked at Asher.
The man waved his hand at her and said, Hi dear…
Asher tilted his head and with an evil smile he asked, what is happening my dear little sister?
Zavier came near them and said, hi dear shall we go on a date?
Asher was surprised to death. What? On A DATE? He asked loudly
Yessss… Amelia promised to go on a date with me… he said pointing his hands at Amelia.
Asher was more surprised.
Wow! That’s such big news, the business devil that hates men, has agreed to go on a date …
Amelia got annoyed by both of them, Shut up both of you! She shouted.
I didn’t promise you, I just agreed to go on a date.
So you really agreed to date him? Asher asked her again
Asher! You better leave now or else I’ll eat you alive. She said with a murderous aura.
Uffff…. Seems you don’t need your brother anymore. You have someone to drop you. Asher said wiping his fake tears.
No… wait for me at the parking; I will be there in 5 minutes.
Asher winked at Zavier, and whispered to him “Don’t you dare to play with my sister or else I’ll chop you into pieces” …
Don’t worry I’m serious about her, Zavier whispered back by patting his shoulder. After Asher left, Zavier stretched his hand and said “shall we”?
She slapped his hand and said; I said I will go on a date with you but not now… then when? He asked keeping his hand on his chin. After the Event. She said in a cold voice.
Okay! Now may I have the honor to drop you at home? She thought for a second… but before she could answer, Asher called her and said that they were invited at Penelope’s Mansion for dinner. Her face color changed. She replied, hmmm! I’ll come and hung up the call.
She looked at Zavier, while he was already looking at her. When she was about to speak, he interrupted by saying
It’s fine… I can wait for you the whole life; he patted her head with a smile and left the place.
