Chapter 4 Missed her

Alexander finished the speech, spoke to several models who were trying to make him interested in them and returned to his table. He enjoyed the food and wanted to ask the hosts about the catering company, they could work together in his hotels. He often organized important and big events, powerful people required quality, and above everything else, they were able to afford it. Luna and Anna went to mingle with other female guests. "Wooo, look at the bar. I see a girl wearing a grey dress, she is so hot. Do any of you know her? Julian talked to his friends.

"No, this is the first time I see her." Alexander, however, noticed a girl wearing a black dress, with beautiful black hair. She had minimal makeup, which only stressed her green eyes. She stood next to the girl Julian spoke about. "Hey, who is the girl in a black dress? Before you think of anything, that one is mine. This is the first time I see her as well" Alexander said. "Oh, I see you found your prey gentlemen." Connor teased. "Well, time to introduce ourselves, don't you think Julian? Alexander chuckled. The men went straight to the bar, but just as they approached Mr. Atkins spoke to Alexander. "How do you like the party, my son"? "It is amazing. I am really enjoying it. How is the business going Mr. Atkins?" "Ooh, fine, we are making progress." Mrs. Atkins approached the girls and said "let me introduce you to a friend of mine. Her daughter is having a wedding soon. They would really like to meet you." Amy was on the cloud nine, she could not believe, it looks like she will finally be able to rent a bigger space. "Mr. Atkins, which company catered this event? I must say, I think the food was delicious", Alexander asked. "Oh, I will introduce you to the woman in charge." Just as he was about to present him to Amy, he noticed that she was not there. After Amy spoke to her potential clients the girls both decided that they had enough and that it was time to go home. Both Julian and Alexander were surprised to find other women standing at the bar. "Well, it looks like the prey run away this time." Connor was rather amused by the situation. "Don't worry, there is enough prey in here tonight" Julian coughed. He was a famous lawyer, good looking and rich, he did not find it challenging to get any woman's attention. Like Alexander, he also considered he should enjoy the charms of women until the right one comes along. Connor noticed a woman with short red dress who has been observing him the entire evening. He decided to have some fun. "Well, I am going to live you now, have a nice evening, lads. Don't get too drunk, we have to go to work tomorrow." The men returned to their table and continued to drink. They spoke about different projects and Alexander asked for Julian's advice regarding some projects. Anna and Luna returned to their table rather bored. "Could we go, home brother?" "Yes, baby sister. You don't like it here" Alexander wanted to know. "Well, the truth is that every girl wants to be my friend only to get closer to you. I am bored by their fake smiles, and none of them is good enough for my brother." Luna was charming, but also very protective of her brother. His heart was already broken once; she will never let a woman do that to her brother again. She looked around and noticed that Connor was leaving with a beautiful model. She was the girl who offended Amy. "Well, how long is this one going to last, probably until the morning, " she thought. She liked Connor, he and Julian were like family, but for some reason she always avoided Connor, she would get easily irritated by his remarks, and he always tried to tease her which made the situation only worse. Ever since she returned from Europe she was rather lonely. She got used to people accepting her for who she really was because no one in Europe knew much about her family background, and they treated her like any normal human being, no fake smiles, and friends who couldn't wait to stab her in the back as soon as possible. She missed all of that. She liked Mila and Amy very much mostly because they did not try too hard to be her friends and were natural. She noticed that the girls probably left the party and decided she should probably do the same. Several other girls approached her and offered to exchange their phone numbers so that they could hang out together, she, of course, knew that the real reason for their actions was her big brother. She felt relieved that her brother accepted her proposal to live at the party. Anna was also rather exhausted and couldn't wait to get home to Nathan. However, as a mother, she was deeply worried by her son's behavior. At the age of 33, although handsome and rich her son was single. She could read about his relationships in the tabloids, but she disliked those women around him. Each and every one of them looked and behaved like gold-digger. They used her son and his family name to obtain their goals. She decided to speak to Nathan about it. She decided that when the time comes she will accept her daughter in law no matter who she is, but it seemed to her that Alexander had no intention of settling down soon. The family bid their good buys to the hosts and left. The chauffeur and the bodyguards patiently waited in front of the hotel. "Anna and Luna, it was a pleasure. Luna, we should have lunch sometimes, I want to hear more about your time in Europe" Julian said. It was not surprising given that they used to go out together all the time. "Oh sure, I just need some time to settle down. I miss Europe already" Luna answered sincerely. "Alexander, thanks for tonight man. I'll call you tomorrow. Let me know if you need any help with that architect of yours." They went their separate ways then.
