The Wife I Never Met -
Chapter 133
When she got out of the car she saw Alex in his black tux waiting for her outside, instead of walking toward him, she looked down at herself and how under dressed she was.
” I thought we are going to Greece, what’s up with the formal wear?”
She asked looking at him in suspicion.
Seing that the woman was not about to move an inch from where she was, Alexandra took it to himself to approach her.
” You look beautiful as always, how do you do it?.”
She looked down at her clothes again and was even more surprised.
” How am I beautiful when I’m only wearing travel joggers? Hey Answer my question then, do you still need to go to the office or do you have a function to attend to first?”
He pulled her closer to him, and kissed her on her lips.
” Yeah, something like that. There are people I want you to meet.”
” Looking like this?”
If there were people he wanted her to meet, and he was even dressed formally that meant that those were some very important people and she was not about to go with him looking like a traveler.
” Who said anything about you going while looking like that, and so you know, you look hotter like this. But for now you can change in to these.”
He said this as he grabbed on to her buttocks and squeezed them a little, and then took a black box from one of his men who was also present with them and passed it on to her.
Boity took the box and allowed Alex to show her the room where she could change her clothes.
She had also taken out some of her makeup from her bag and applied some to her face and by the time she got of that room she looked like she had a lot more time than just a few minutes to get ready, she looked like a goddess.
She returned her makeup bag in her suitcase in the car and was led to another black tinted limousine which took them to the actual venue where the party was held, she tried peaking out of the window to see where they are going but the windows were just too dark for her to see the road, hence she looked at Alex for clarification.
” Don’t worry, you will know when we get there. “
For some reason Boity chose to trust him, maybe it was because of all the things Alex had already done for her.
She nodded her head and focused on the glass of champagne that was in her hand.
Finally the car came to a stop and the door on Alex’s side was opened by the driver, once Alex was out he too extended his hand to her, so that he can help her out. They slowly walked toward the mansion hidden in the bushes, as they approached the door there were waiters on either side of the door with welcome drinks on the trays they were holding and the other had a tray full of finger foods for the guests to nibble on before food was served.
” Not anyone gets an invite to these kind of parties, you should consider yourself lucky to even be here.”
Alexandra whispered to her ear, which caused Boity to look at him in a confused manner.
She thought what kind of party was it , that she should consider herself lucky to be invited. She grew up in a well off family and had been invited to all sorts of parties.
Her confusion though was soon cleared as they got in to the building, she started seeing A-list celebrities in the room.
Although she had been to a lot of parties organized by their friends and acquaintances from the upper class, this was her first time being with so many celebrities under one roof. She tried acting normal so as to not embarrass Alex in front of his associates, but the further they moved in to the house, Boity was even more astonished, so much so that she ended up looking at Alexandra with her mouth wide open.
She could not believe that she was under one roof with the president himself, and many other respected politicians and businessmen whom she had only seen on the television and the political news bloggs of the country were in the same room as her. Most of them were married men, but that didn’t stop them from bringing their celebrity girlfriends to this particular event.
She wondered what kind of a man she was with, who was able to befriend such elite people.
Alex gently tightened the hand around Boity’s waist and leaned over, then whispered in to her ear.
” Even if you notice anything off, don’t make any comment to anyone that can potentially offend them, okay?”
She nooded, then started searching for her phone, as she definitely needed to take some pictures with these amazing idols of hers. Alexandra then again whispered to her ear,
” No phones or cameras are allowed in this house, not even your president has one with him as we speak.”
Hearing this Boity was clearly disappointed, what’s was the point of being there if she couldn’t get the proof that she knew the people in that house.
Alex then reminded her of their purpose for being there,
‘ Right, if I can just build a friendship with them, then there wouldn’t be a need to prove anything as the evidence would be right in everyone’s eyes.’
Well that was what she thought, what she didn’t know though was if she would even be able to befriend any of them.
” Come!”
Alexandra’s voice interrupted her from all her day dreaming.
When she raised up her head, she noticed that the president was coming their way, so she nudged Alex with her elbow, as her nervousness started building up. Alex reassured her though, as he gently squeezed her hand, while also pulling her towards the president so that they could meet him Halfway.
” Ah my man, how’s everything in the presidency seat. You are still holding it well, are you?”
They both shook their hands like old buddies, while Alex joked while greeting him.
” Hey Hey, I’m still the man in charge here, so don’t play that game. Tell me, who’s this lovely lady next to you here?”
Alex looked at Boity with a smile that covered his whole face, then back to the president.
” See this right here is my beautiful woman, Boitumelo.”
He then winked at the president, only he could understand what that wink meant.
” oooh I get you, so It’s Boitumelo right.”
” But you can call me Boity, everyone calls me that anyway.”
Boity added shyly to Alex’s answer.
The president only nodded with a smile in response, they then continued talking for a while, leaving Boity clueless about the whole conversation, hence she kept herself busy by eating all the snacks that kept on passing in front of her.
” Woo slow down, aren’t you scared you’ll gain weight?”
A woman’s voice sounded from behind her
” With all the nerves killing me right now, gaining weight is the least of my worries..”
She then froze in one spot, probably because it had finally registered in her mind who the voice belonged to. She then slowly turned around to replace the woman I’m front of her smiling.
” Then you better calm yourself down, because we’re all here for one purpose and that is to have fun while building business relationships to help with our careers. Under this roof, we’re all equals, okay?”
Since Boity didn’t know how to respond, she only responded with a smile and also nodded.
” I’m Pearl by the way, and you are?”
” Well my name is Boity, great to finally meet you.”
