"I got an invitation from your company for a dinner party," Patricia said.
"I got one too, Dad said it had something to do with a new project we got," Alex said.
"Oh, I love parties, especially dinners".
"Cause you will eat fancy food," said Eric.
She frowned, "You're coming or not," she asked him.
He chuckled, "I can't let you go alone or Some weird man might be attracted to your weird eating habit"
"So your saying is weird," she said.
Alex laughed, "but that makes him weird too since he fell for your weird habits".
Patrica laughed, "Oh, then it's fine, we are both weird".
Eric smirked, "you just realized that" Patricia moved closer to him, "So honey, will you sponsor my dinner dress," she asked.
"But you claimed last time that you were making more money than me. Which is weird cause you work for me".
"I do make more money than you, I have an online store where I sell my designs, so I make more money," she said.
"Why don't I know of it, keeping secrets from each other are we?" Eric asked.
"No, it's just that I wanted it to first pick pace and then tell you. I didn't mean to hide it am sorry" she said.
He chuckled, "Don't worry, I know about it already. You can do anything behind me and I don't know of it. Who do you think has been supporting you, buying all that stuff?" he said.
"Huh, you? But they are women's clothes so if you don't buy them for me then where do they go?"
He smiled, "I did buy the first collection you put out and gifted it to my mother and sisters. And they loved them so I recommended them to your site and soon all their other friends were supporting you too," he said.
Patrica blinked, "So you mean your mother and sisters and all their other rich friends have been buying my clothes.".
"Yes, and they love them. I wanted to tell you but since you kept it a secret I also waited till you tell me"
She ran to him from the kitchen, jumping into his arms, her legs wrapping around his waist, "I love you so much" she said.
He laughed kissing her neck, "I love you more"
Alex giggled, "you're both so cute"
....
Eric had arrived at the dinner before Alex and Patricia who took their time to get ready arrived later.
"You look amazing," he said kissing her shoulder bare shoulder.
"I know, thank you," she said.
Alex was with Mark who couldn't take his eyes off her.
Jack walked in fully dressed in a black suit.
"Oh, what are you doing here? " Patricia asked.
Eric held her hand," "He was invited too".
"Invited, Alex did you invite him here? " she asked.
"Patricia I invited her to remember" Alex laughed.
"Then the person who made that guest list was probably high" she glanced at Jack and walked away. Eric followed her.
Alex's father got up to the stage and gave his speech thanking everyone for coming and announcing why they were there
"The person who made this happen is here with us now so please everyone help me welcome the new CEO of the Black cooperation...Tatiana Kennel" he clapped.
