Chapter 46: Torn Between Two Lovers

"Liv! You made it!"

Camille ran towards me. I could even hear her gold earrings bumping into each other. And she seem very happy to see me like I'm already her best friend although we've only met twice.

"Happy birthday, Camille," I said and gave her a smile. She looks stunning tonight, wearing a black and silver dress with her hair tied in a neat ponytail. I'm taller than her but tonight, we're on the same height because she's wearing higher heels than mine.

"I'm glad you're here," she said. Her eyes went down onto my dress like she was disgusted. I didn't know if I should be offended or should I laugh because of her face. "What are you wearing?!"

"Uhm... A dress?" I said, chuckling.

"I didn't know you have a terrible sense of fashion. Come, I'll show you what real fashion is." Camille held my hand and dragged me with her. I looked at Sean, who's now with his brother and Mr. Parker. He just laughed at me when I gave him a begging look. Meanwhile, Mr. Parker didn't even give an expression.

Finally, Camille let go of my hand. I just followed her to her room on the second floor. I have no idea what she wants us to do but I think she wants to change my clothes. In my entire life, no one has ever told me that my style sucks. Maybe they're just too polite to do that.

"First, we need to pick you a beautiful dress. Come over here." She gestured so I followed her to her walk in closet.

My mouth opened when I saw a lot of clothes and shoes in here. I can tell that she actually has a thing for fashion. Her clothes look very expensive. I'm guessing some of them are bought from other countries such as France and Italy. People there tend to normalize being good with fashion.

"I think this will do," she said after she picked a white spaghetti dress that lengths for about three inches above the knee. Camille walked towards me and she placed the dress in front of me, thinking if she chose the right one.

"I think it's pretty," I said even I have no idea if it will look good on me. Even I'm taller that her, I could say that we have the same body shape. Any of her dresses would fit me.

"No. You'll look like you're going to attend a wedding." She put it on the couch instead of putting it back in her closet. "What about this?"

Another stunning dress impressed me. It's a navy blue and black dress. It looks so seductive and hot because it's backless.

"It looks good. But it's cold tonight," I said and we laughed.

"Oh, this is the one." She showed me a glittering pure black dress. It has a slit that I think will reveal my panty. It's too high!

"That slit scares me."

"Yeah. And it also looks like you're a revengeful woman," she said, mocking her own opinion. "This one is rejected." She throwed it away on the couch with the other dresses.

"This is perfect."

What she had chosen left me starstrucked. It's a gorgeous beige satin cocktail dress. It's above the knee and it has a spaghetti strap. I'm in love with the dress.

"I couldn't agree more," I answered.

Camille made me sit down in front of her mirror. She got some wet tissues to wipe my makeup before she started applying a new layer. I'm amazed by her, she's really into these things. She looks like a pro when I'm watching her put powder on my face. Her makeup also looks expensive. I wonder how much money she spent for these.

After she made my makeup, she ironed my hair a bit before tying it in a ponytail. She left some of my hair in both sides of my face to make it look extraordinary. She also made me wear a bronze pin heel shoes. Luckily, I'm somehow used to these kinds of shoes because I also wear them if Mr. Parker and I attend a formal event.

"There, everything's perfect now," she said.

I stood up and looked myself in the big mirror beside her closet. All my life, I haven't wore anything like this. Maybe my taste was really kind of terrible as what Camille said. She's younger than me but I idolize her now.

"I look so expensive," I laughed out of joy.

"Because you are! That's yours now. Including the shoes," Camille said which made me left in shock.

"What? You can't be serious, right?"

"Uhm... I am?" She ridiculously looked at me.

"Why would you give me all these stuff. It's your birthday, Camille. I didn't even buy you a gift." I'm feeling guilty now. I don't think I can accept this just like that.

"I didn't ask for a gift, Liv. But, would you really reject my offer to give you those?" After a long conversation, she won it. I said I'll take it because she won't stop forcing me to.

While I'm fixing my clothes that I was wearing earlier, their helper knocked and told Camille that her friends from New Jersey already came. I told her I'll go down by myself so she can meet her friends now while I'm still getting my things inside the paper bag she gave me. I went to the bathroom after to pee.

Camille told me to leave my things here for now so I won't bother myself to carry it from time to time. She said I can just go back here before I go home. After everything was already inside the paper bag, I walked towards outside and I took the stairs.

I was nervous when I saw that there's a lot of people here and the stairs was kind of exposing me. I watched my steps as I take a step because even I'm used to wearing high heels, I couldn't tell if I'll trip or not. My hand was sliding in the handrail to have an extra support. Some of the people were looking at me but also some of them aren't interested.

I glanced down while still taking steps and I saw Mr. Parker. He was intensely looking at me. He couldn't even get his eyes off me. On the other hand, Sean went to the stairs and smiled at me. He has a glass of champagne in his other hand while the other was lifted, a sign of being a gentleman. I had no choice but to take his hand.

When I was already walking comfortably, I slowly let go of his hand. I don't know why I felt like I just betrayed someone when I held his hand. It doesn't feel right.

Sean grabbed me a drink and I took it. I glanced at Mr. Parker who was sitting on the couch in like a VIP spot with Mr. Whitmore. It looks like he wanted to say something to me but couldn't.

"I'm not gonna lie, you look prettier. Camille did a great job." He smirked before drinking. I just agreed with him before drinking my champagne too.

...

I'm sitting with Sean on a couch that's parallel to where Mr. Parker sits and consecutive on where Mr. Whitmore also sits. I'm not surprised that Cindy is sitting next to Mr. Parker because he hates his cousin. Particularly, the older one. I still wonder why.

"Kellen, say something about Liv. She's very beautiful tonight. Another reason for me not to be straight," Cindy said which made my eyes widen. "I'm kidding." She laughed.

Mr. Parker just smiled at me. I don't even know if it's a fake or a real one. He seems like he's not in the mood. I'm hoping I'm not the reason. Mr. Whitmore, on the other side, tries to hide his smirk. What's wrong with these people?

"And I don't wonder why I'm having the idea of making her mine." I was stunned by what Sean just said. Why did he say that in front of them? Cindy and Mr. Whitmore had the same reaction. They were quite surprised but amused. Mr. Parker and I just stayed silent. I know that he hated what Sean said.

"Excuse me. I'll just smoke outside." Mr. Parker stood up and walked away.

"Wow. A guy that doesn't smoke said that he'll smoke right now. Interesting," Cindy said before drinking her tequila.

She's right. Mr. Parker doesn't smoke. I know he just made that up to avoid the situation. I need to talk to him.

I stood up and was about to follow Mr. Parker but Sean held my hand. "Where are you going?" he softly asked.

"I'm going to smoke too," I said before getting out of his grip.

"Liv!" he called but I didn't look back. I'm too irritated to do that.

I was almost running and the clicking sound of my shoes is all I hear while walking towards the backyard because this is where I saw Mr. Parker go.

I'm responsible for hurting his feelings. I'll make sure this will never happen again.
