Recap
I absolutely loved the painting, thank you😘“
“Looking at the emoji I should have given the gift in person” Henry replied.
“☺︓(shy)
“Don’t provoke me Julie, I am in the middle of a dinner meet”
“How come you get aroused by a text message 😇 (innocent)”
“Should I send you a picture of my b*ner?”
“I believe you D”
“D?? Whats that? My mind suggests me all inappropriate names already”
Julie laughed and replied,
“I will leave you to assume D..😘“
She looked at his photos in gallery and said good night D and she dozed off in her new home.
Henry racked his brain for a long time that night regarding the D word. All he could think of was only dirty and explicit words.
Clara and Henry were finalising the design and concept for the next series launch. Julie came in with the model portfolio, when Clara announced, “I would like to name the series as project D”
“What??!?!?!?” Henry and Julie said together in shock.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Holysh…, you both startled me, I meant Project Diamond, what’s wrong?” Henry covered his mouth holding his laugh.
Julie came closer and said,
“Project D is going to be a grand success, what do you think Mr Kingston?” She winked at him, sedectively to see how he reacts. Henry choked on his own saliva, as he was utterly shocked and unexpected Julie’s behaviour, when Clara was around. It was so new to him, Julie is getting bolder every passing day, he is so sure that he is going to lose the challenge to her very soon. He cleared his throat and asked,
“What?”
“D! Project D will be a big success is it not?”She stressed the D.
“Of course! It will”
She likes teasing him.
Clara did not want to know whats up with these two. She wouldn’t bring her personal opinions into business. Thus she had decided to ignore them as their personal matters may not benefit her in any ways.

That Friday, Henry was invited to his friend, Eric’s birthday. After work, Henry left to the party, sending off Mason and Ben as he drove by himself. The starlight club is known to host high-end parties where usually celebrities and people from elite society chillout, so the entry was strictly prohibited to random people without invitation in order to secure their privacy from paparazzi.
Henry met some of his friends after a long time so he was chatting with them. Couple of girls entered the party, Henry recognised the one girl in a smoking red outfit, whose eyes instantly lit up on seeing him. She came straight to him and hugged him tightly. Henry stepped back at once, gently holding her away from him not liking her proximity.
“Hello Miss Hebrews” Henry used a formal tone to let her take the cue. She was the daughter of the Senator who he has high regards for.
“Henry, just call me Bianca” she whined.
Henry nodded with a small smile. Henry averted his gaze to his friend to whom he was talking to. Bianca also left to greet Eric and joined the girls. Henry noticed that they were playing games and preferring only strong drinks.
“I don’t think they can handle the hard drinks considering the speed they are taking, anyways fun guaranteed” one of his friends commented. They were very loud playing truth or dare. Bianca had already planned her move once she saw Henry’s name on the invitees list. She had a thing for him and wanted to have a romantic relationship with him. She expressed it to her friends and decided to use this party to woo him. When they gave her a dare to kiss someone in the party, she walked straight to him, she was confident that kissing Henry unannounced will be a shocker to him, but deepening the kiss with make him fall for her charm and he would eventually give in after all, men will be men.
Bianca atrociously walked towards Henry, as one of his friends said,
“She is up to something” as Henry was also looking at her approaching figure and guessed that she would definitely make a scene.
She came extremely close, literally thrown herself on to Henry, locking her hands around his neck, giving no room for him to escape the kiss. Considering her inebriated form and respect for her father, Henry tried to tone down his voice yet said strongly,
“Bianca NO” with a clenched fist he turned his face and took of her hands off.
“Baby, don’t bottle up your desire, come on, let’s bang tonight” she hugged his waist and stood on her toes.
The girls shouted, “kiss him, kiss him”
Henry could not control his anger anymore,
“Enough,Miss Bianca Hebrews” he roared in fury and pushed her hard that made her fall flat on her bum and glided few feet away due to the force. Everyone was frozen and startled at Henry’s outrage. He took two steps towards her and warned,
“Stay in your limits and keep your lusty thoughts and plans to yourself if you care about your self-respect.”
Henry was about to leave, but Eric stopped him, “Don’t let this ruin your mood please stay.”
Bianca was too stunned, so she retreated to the bartender and gulped few more glasses of alcohol. She was not convinced yet, her desire to get physical with Henry grew up further, as she doesn’t want to be a laughing stock amongst her friends, she vowed to seduce or trick him into get laid tonight to satisfy her ego and pride.
Henry came out to leave when he found a small, fragile figure sitting on the floor and leaning on the pillar. It was Bianca, she was nowhere compare to the seductive, bold girl inside the party sometime ago. Her skimpy clothes and boozy state garnered the attention of the roadside Romeo’s. Henry went close by and asked, “Didn’t you go home?”
“I can’t” she said in a feeble voice.
“Why?” My parents wouldn’t approve me partying this late and entering the home intoxicated. I was supposed to go with Natasha, but she left with a guy and wouldn’t pick my call”
“Get a cab to her place”
“I don’t have the keys” Henry rolled his eyes.
“What if someone click your picture in this state and leak it in the media, don’t you care about your father’s image and reputation?”
“I’m sorry for being reckless Henry, will you please do me a favour?”
Henry waited, “will you let me stay in your place tonight because I have nowhere to go”
He did not respond.
“I won’t trouble you, I swear” she pleaded.
“No” he said and walked off to his car.
Henry’s mind was in a big conflict, whether to shelter her for the sake of Mr Hebrews or to stay away from a girl like Bianca, because you don’t know if that’s one of her tricks to persuade him. Other reason for not taking her with him was, it would be a big trouble if someone spot them together at this late hours. Given her state, rumour mills would go crazy and fabricate dirty stories. If he leave her in a hotel, either of their IDs has to be produced for check-in and it’s again risky that people might see them together. Henry drove past her when he saw a biker flirting with her and touching her against her will.
He reversed the car, open the passenger door and yelled, “Get in, Bianca”.
She abruptly pushed the biker away and got in like a scared rabbit. Henry gave her his jacket as she was quivering and to cover her up since she was wearing a small dress.
Henry helped her with the seatbelt as she fidgeted in the dark. His scent excited her desire and she advanced to kiss him, but Henry moved away quickly. She was not disappointed as she dreamt of having a whole night of fantasy with him.
She slowly turned to the window and shown a thumbs up to the dark silhouette of a girl standing behind the pillar. Bianca grinned in triumph and waves of steamy thoughts crashed her mind as she had finally succeeded in executing her plan to be with Henry.
