The President's Chapter 41 – The devil and his mistress

Chapter 41: Chapter 41 – The devil and his mistress

"Lizzy, are you sure about this dress?"

Sabrina felt as if she was for sale in the dress her sister designed for her. It was a high-fashion design and the only reason it made her uncomfortable was the amount of skin it forced her to expose.

Sabrina has never been exposed to such an amount of skin all her life, for which reason she was shy.

"I already discussed it with Devin. It’s gorgeous," Lizzy insisted, while she bit on a sausage barbeque for snack. Lizzy was a lover of sausages, for which reason she worked out a lot to burn the calories after.

Sabrina was hoping that Devin would put in a word for her but his silence ant he already agreed with Lizzy and she felt alone for the first ti since her return.

Looking at the dress Lizzy wore, an idea popped into her mind and she requested,

"Devin, let

wear her dress instead," she beckoned to the dress Lizzy wore. At the sa ti, she began to feel nauseous and ran to the bathroom.

"Oh my, the pregnancy side effects are knocking at her door, what do we do now?" Lizzy asked helplessly before following Sabrina.

"Are you alright? Do you want to stay back?" Lizzy asked worriedly.

Sabrina was still pouring out everything she ate and rinsed her mouth. Not wanting to offend her kid sister, she spoke softly,

"I don’t have morning sickness or anything. I can make it to the party for as long as you stop eating the sausages till after the party."

"Oh," guilt flashed in Lizzy’s eyes before she rendered a heartfelt apology and rinsed her mouth with mouthwash before washing her hands.

"I won’t eat it any ti we are together."

"Thank you,"

Sabrina said before going back to the bedroom where Devin was sitting on the bed waiting for them anxiously. Seeing that Sabrina was fine, he felt relatively relieved from his worries.

Lizzy overtook Sabrina and discarded her remaining sausages with a sad look but since she was doing it for Sabrina, it seed to be worth it.

Devin observed his sister’s gorgeous curve in the dress designed by his kid sister and he could not imagine her in any other dress as she had requested.

"Sabrina, you are the deputy CEO of JC Minerals and you will be eting a lot of businessn and won today. Don’t you think it’s ti to make a good acquaintance and let your appearance tell them what you are into?"

Sabrina did not understand until he brought out the necklace.

"Oh, I did not think about it that way."

Lizzy’s eyes were glistening like a little girl receiving her favorite candy.

"So, we are settled, right? There are four or more pieces of jewelry with

so we have to stick together and rember to not ntion any price," Lizzy advised but Sabrina was confused.

This was all new to her, except that her level of determination was extre.

"What if soone offers to buy it at a lower price?" Sabrina asked curiously.

"Then you don’t have to sell it," Lizzy advised with an air of caution before drawing Sabrina’s attention to sothing else,

"Rember, the actual price of each of the necklaces is 1.5 million. The rest would be the profit we make from it."

The doorbell rang.

"I think Martin is here," Devin grinned before going to get the door. Martin walked in with another bouquet in his hand. At the sight of Sabrina, so many emotions gathered in his eyes,

"Oh, my God, Sabrina, please let

take a picture for my wallpaper. You look gorgeous,"

he handed over the bouquet to her whiles he spoke and Lizzy rolled her eyes.

"You..."

Sabrina wanted to confirm the part of him using her picture as a wallpaper but Martin had already discerned the error in his words and quickly made a correction.

"How else do we make it believable? I could just drop my phone, pretending like I left it behind. You know how these things work," he winked.

Sabrina did not read any negative aning into his request after the explanation he gave and agreed to take pictures with him.

It was not a selfie since Devin honored it by being their photographer. After everything, they took group pictures as well, after begging their father to be their photographer.

Sabrina did not recall any ti she snapped a picture with Robin after the one they snapped during their wedding day. At the thought, her mood dampened.

After the photographs, they left in two different cars. They arrived earlier than most people and had observed everything until Sabrina’s bladder got full. Martin decided to escort her since most people had not arrived.

Reaching the elevator, they bumped into the devil and his mistress. Sabrina could feel Robin’s heated gaze on her, which made her perturbed.

"If you are not coming out, then we are coming in," she said, since the couple in the elevator had turned into pillars of salt at the sight of her. She had no idea what was going through their minds.

Robin rocked a black suit with a black shirt and tie which gave him a domineering appearance compared to Martin who wore a black suit with a white shirt and black bow tie.

He looked like a handso young man. Compared to Robin, the latter held an air of superiority over everyone.

Robin gazed at Martin and the latter held his gaze calmly. Instinctively, Martin’s hands reached the small of Sabrina’s back and Robin’s jaw clenched.

"What are you doing here, Sabrina?"

Robin questioned as if he was not expecting to see her. He just did not know what to say and the fact that he could not keep his eyes off her when he had a woman beside him.

"Aside from the fact that I ca with my boyfriend, I also sell jewelry," Sabrina smiled boldly and spoke. Hearing her refer to Martin as her boyfriend, Robin felt odd.

Nevertheless, the ntion of his ex-wife selling jewelry caught his attention. She never worked in her life and ventured directly into sales? That was bold. Robin’s brows raised into a scrutinizing gaze.

"Since when did you know anything about jewelry and marketing?"

Sabrina smiled but it was a bitter one. If Robin thought that all she was good at was cooking and taking care of his ho, then she was ready to surprise him.

Glaring at Zayla who had coiled into her shell from her keeper look, Sabrina analyzed sothing.

"Like that diamond ring on your fiancé’s finger, it’s fake. She must have been duped and it’s such a sha, isn’t it? Perhaps you could buy this necklace for her, to lift her image."

Robin’s face hardened at the embarrassnt Zayla had caused him. Before now, he never thought the ring existed since she had claid to have borrowed it.

Feeling his disappointed gaze on her, Zayla’s face dropped at the revelation but her eyes lit at the suggestion of the necklace since Robin never bought anything for her directly except food.

"Yes, Robin, I like the necklace," she said with enthusiasm.
