“Burn those who burned me!”
<b>Chapter </b><b>31 </b>
<i>-Thomas</i><b><i>‘ </i></b><b>POV</b><b>: </b>
We received the ball invitations that same night, he’d sent one for each of us, Rabena included. I could feel my palms start to sweat as I read her name on the fancy stationary. All that day I had my assistant trying to find her with no luck. At this rate we would have no choice but to go along with Danielle’s n of feigning sickness. Every time he thought about that day his blood boiled over. Danielle really put him in a difficult position lying about that proposal. He would have never agreed to a divorce had he known Rabena was behind it. Suddenly, a text message came through on his phone, it was from his grandmother.
Grandmom: I just received an invitation for the annual MGT charity ball. I’ll be taking your cousin as my escort as I’m sure you’ll go with Rabena.
Thomas could feel the color drain from his face. For the past several weeks he’d been lying to his grandmother about his divorce from Rabena, if he didn’t secure that deal Friday his promotion to CEO was as good as dead. Today was Thursday and he still had not heard anything regarding Rabena’s whereabouts.
<i>‘</i><i>Where </i><i>the </i><i>fuck </i><i>did </i><i>she </i><i>go </i><i>to </i><i>another </i><i</i><i>!</i><i>‘ </i>
Suddenly, his phone rang, it was his assistant Andrew.
“<i>Have </i><i>you </i><i>found </i><i>her</i>?!”
There was a slight pause before he responded.
“No, <i>we </i><i>haven’t </i><i>sir-</i>”
“Then what the hell did you call me for!”
His irritation growing Thomas cut Andrew off, what was the point in calling him if he hadn’t yet found her.
<i>“</i><i>I </i><i>thought </i><i>you </i><i>might </i><i>like </i><i>to </i><i>know </i><i>Damon </i><i>is </i><i>back </i><i>in </i><i>town</i>.”
Thomas paused for a moment. This might actually be some good news. It was no secret that shortly after Rabena left he also disappeared; it was naturally assumed that she was with him. That could be the reason why she’s been able to survive this whole time. She had no money, no means and no connections, so it had
to be Damon.
“Good, this is good<i>. </i><i>Do </i>you <i>have </i><i>a </i><i>location </i>for him?<i>” </i>
“<i>I </i>was able to find out <i>threw </i><i>one </i><i>of </i>his <i>friends </i>that he’ll be meeting him <i>for </i>brunch at the <i>Ivy </i>around noon.”
Thomas took a look at his watchy, the time was 11:15am.
“<i>Okay </i><i>great </i>work<i>, </i><i>I’m </i>headed there <i>now</i><i>. </i><i>She </i>didn’t <i>have </i><i>many </i><i>friends </i><i>but </i>see <i>if </i>she <i>may </i><i>have </i><i>reached </i><i>out </i>to <i>any </i>one <i>today </i><i>as </i><i>well</i>.”
Thomas made a U–turn and headed straight for the Ivy. He’d find out where she was one way or another.
-Aaron’s <b><i>POV</i></b><b><i>: </i></b>
After his meetings, Aaron showed up in the lobby at exactly 12:30pm. When he finally found Rabena he could hardly believe his eyes. Aaron always thought she was beautiful but right now, she looked like a mature beautiful goddess ready to take on the world. The spa most certainly did her justice. She’syered and added honey blonde streaks to her hair. Her nails had a French manicure and her skin looked amazing. A beautiful caramelplexion with the right amount of soft makeup. She was wearing a navy–blue pencil skirt and cream colored buttoned up blouse. She looked every bit the part of a businesswoman meeting with a chairwoman. Aaron was beyond impressed. Walking up with a huge smile on his face, he couldn’t help but feel pride. <fnd115> Get full chapters from find?novel</fnd115>

<b><i>-Rabena’s </i></b><b>POV</b><b>: </b>
That was the first time in a while since he called me that. It actually sounded kind of strange now. Rabena
had a mischievous smile on her face.
<i>“</i><i>Why </i><i>thank </i><i>you </i><i>Chairman </i><i>Michaels</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Extending his arm to Rabena, Aaron couldn’t help but smile, as they made their way to the valet, Rabena felt like she was ready to conquer the world.
