Burn Those Who Burned Me novel Chapter 35

-Rabena’s POV:

Aaron dropped me off at Charte‘ Boutique right before 3pm. The ladies were already there, he’d already sent a car to pick them up at the hotel. My–husband–to–be was very thorough, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“What are you over there giggling about?”

Aaron looked at me with a mischievous grin.

“Oh nothing, just admiring how thorough my future husband is. It’s quite the turn on.”

Aaron’s eyes slightly darkened. If Rabena kept up this flirtatious act she might not make to the boutique. The urge to turn the car around and head back to the hotel was racing through his thoughts.

“Well, I supposed I’ll have to be rewarded later on, right President Price?”

Rabena could feel her face starting to burn, he was clearly better at flirting than her. Stumbling on her words, Rabena began to exit the car.

“I…I suppose so.”

Almost tripping as she left the car, Aaron couldn’t help but laugh. He’d make sure she stayed true to her

words.

As soon as Rabena entered the boutique, the hostess Valarie greeted her with a huge smile.

“Welcome to Charte‘! I’m Valarie the boutique’s owner. You must be the lovely Rabena Price.”

Rabena smiled shyly, clearly her fiancé made quite the impression.

“Yes, it’s a pleasure to meet you Ms. Valarie.”

Valarie slightly blushed. She was already anticipating what type of people she would be hosting. When she learned Chairman Michales wanted to rent her entire boutique for several hours just so his fiancé and her entourage could pick out dresses, she’d imagine a bunch of snobby uptight women from the western continent. But that wasn’t the case, all the ladies were cheerful, polite, and talkative. They’d complimented how beautiful her store and clothing were and asked if she was willing to travel for business. Valarie never had that type of respect from some of the elite socialites in Banton, she wanted to make sure she fulfilled

the Chairman’s wishes.

“I’m not familiar with Banton’s clothing stores but I was told your boutique has some of the most beautiful designs and evening gowns, is that correct?”

Blushing.

“Oh, yes Chairman Michaels, you were told correct! May I ask who you would like to buy a gown for?”

Chapter 35

Aaron was looking around the store, from what he’d seen so far, he was glad he chose this place.

“It’s for my fiancé. I’m going to be announcing our engagement at my charity ball, and I’d like her to look like a queen. Would you be able to do that for me?”

Valarie could still remember that gorgeous smile on his face as he made reservations to book the entire store. With the challenge accepted she wouldn’t let him down. She’d turn Rabena Price into the queen of the night, luckily, she was absolutely gorgeous with a petite but structured figure. Dolling her up would be an easy task.

Rabena made her way to dressing room where everyone else was at, laughing, looking at dresses and drinking wine. Gracie was the first to notice her walk in, running over she gave Rabena a big hug.

“Auntie Rabena you’re finally here! We’re picking out dresses!”

Gracie took her hand a led her to the seating area as if she were the shop’s hostess, all the women laughed as she explained some of the different type of dresses the boutique had. Valarie bent down and gave Gracie a hi–five.

“Ms. Gracie, you might have some sales talent in you for fashion! Would you like to be my assistant for the evening?”

Gracie’s eyes instantly lit up as she yelled “yes!” Everyone laughed as she followed Valarie to retrieve some more clothing. Pera handed Rabena a glass of wine as she sat down.

“Alright gorgeous! Your hubby has informed us we’ll need make sure you’re the bell of the ball for Friday’s gala, but you’re going also need something for tonight’s dinner!”
