Why deceive me??
33. At The Party

"Alan, can I ask you a question"?

"Go ahead ma," he said.

What's the best way to get someone's trust without them finding out?

Alan was speechless for a few moments before he finally said. Miss Katie, the best way to gain someone's trust without them finding out is by being yourself no matter how difficult it might be. "We will arrive at the venue soon," Alan said.

"Ok, and thanks for the answer right now."

Not quite a minute later we arrived at the venue of the party which is a five stars hotel in town.

At the entrance of the hotel, many prominent business tycoons stood exchanging pleasantries.

Alan pulled over and hurried down to open the car door for me to step out.

Immediately my leg was out of the car, you can see the lust all over the eyes of the men standing at the entrance and all the ladies present were all jealous of my look.

I was walking steadily. I have been practicing how to walk with heels and a ball gown for some time now, I am confidently walking with my head held up high as a princess would.

As I was approaching the entrance steadily, I saw Damon waiting for me with a smile on his face.

I slowly walked up to him and our eyes were locked on each other, Damon was looking at me with surprise and awe. This was the first time I saw him look at me with such lust evidently on his face.

I was right in his sight but his mind was still drifting around. He only regained his sanity when someone beside him call him of his daydreaming fantasy.

"Ahem" Damon cleared his throat." Come, let us not keep the host waiting."

Damon offered his arm. I held it with my hand gently.

Immediately we arrived at the party hall, I saw many business magnates, high classes celebrities, and high officials from the government wearing beautiful dresses and suits. Some are chattering, some are eating and some are dancing on the dance floor.

After we got inside the hall, a waitress walked up to us with glasses of champagne which we accepted to toast to the host.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you are highly welcome to this dinner party arranged to raise funds for the fewer privileges." As you support humanity you are creating a favorable and peaceful world for generations to come." Enjoy your night, eat and drink to your fill.

All the guests applauded. I was overwhelmed this is my first time attending a Charity dinner party. And here now I was the center of attention because of my look.

"Since I am now the star of the night, I must make judicious use of this moment to meet some of these celebrities."

"Hahaha Damon," a middle-aged stout man approached us. "I don't know you were hiding such a beautiful Lady."

"Oh Mr. Cameron," it's nice meeting you at this party.

To my surprise, the Stout man extends his hand to me for a shake.

"Oh Mr. Cameron, let me introduce my fiancee to you." Damon's countenance was altered as he looked at the man's hand in mine.

"Damon, you are such a sly fellow to predict what's running in your head."

If you don't mind, can I take her to dance?

Immediately Damon heard the word he was so infuriated that his wolve line blood pressure skyrocketed.

But he slyly took Mr. Cameron's hand off mine and said, you have to wait for an eternity to get the chance to dance with her.

He turned to me and said, "Dance with me."

"Hey "I was confused. And he wasn't going to take no for an answer. He pulled me gently to the dance floor.

Once we got to the dance floor, all eyes were upon us. The chattering from the guests slowly stopped.

The guests who were dancing on the dance floor came to a stop and gave way to us.

Once we are at the center, Damon turned toward me and took me into his arms. We were now in a dancing position.

"I believe you know how to dance the waltz." He asked with a teasing smile.

Dancing was one among many other things, I learned to impersonate Katie Rowland without being suspicious. "Y-yes of course," I answered.

Then the musicians started playing the waltz.

Damon guided me into dancing. I have been a klutz while learning how to dance. But with Damon guiding my steps, it was like I have been dancing all my life.

The feeling was ecstatic. And every twist and turn we do was graceful and elegant. I didn't realize that I was wearing a smile on my face. Damon was leading me smiled while looking at me, and I immediately composed myself and looked at his deep dark red eyes. They were enchanting, and am feeling like I would let them engulf me in their depths anytime. It was like we were the only ones in the hall, we were in our world.

Then the music came to its climax and we started to slow down until the music stopped. A huge round of applause was heard in the hall.

We stared at each other for a while before the cheers of the crowd got to us. Damon bowed in front of me and I gave him my courtesy. We walked back to our table but I can't stop thinking how could a cold-blooded fellow like Damon knows how to dance without flaws.

"How come you know how to dance?" Are you a dancer from your former life Damon? The voice brought me back from my imagination just to see Mr. Cameron sitting next to our table.

"Mr. Cameron," it looks like you need my mentorship for dancing and weight loss right?

"But I'm preoccupied for the next ten years."

Mr. Cameron instantly frowned and was about to refute Damon's claim but it was already too late. Everyone present bursts out laughing at Mr. Cameron for his stoutness and unbridled manner.
