Chapter 6

Sheri was more than glad that at least, she wasn’t going to have to show up in a costume. The dress Dean had picked was indeed amazing and worth the monstrous sum it obviously must have cost judging by the designer label. She recognized the gown from next year’s spring collection. It was super sexy, with a peek-a-boo bodice and a high-texture skirt with flat diamond cut-outs in the sides above the waist.

Definitely showing some more skin than Sheri was used to in public, but she had nothing to be ashamed of. She felt flattered Dean wanted to show her off this way, though she still worried they’d get undue attention. In the past when she’d partnered him at such events, she’d taken care to stay in the background.

But the dress he picked was far from the type to play wallflower in. It had red-carpet flair in its every stitch, bold and yet fluid. It felt like a dream to wear it, the powerful nude tones complementing her dusky complexion. To complete the look were black sexy heels, thin straps crisscrossing from her toes to her ankles.

What girl didn’t love to look beautiful, elegant, and feminine, especially for a formal event? She might be against the whole premise of playing the billionaire’s designer-clad arm candy, but Sheri had to admit she’d never looked hotter.

At that moment, there was a knock on the front door. She was surprised to see Dean’s driver Perry, who informed her his boss would meet her at the gala, before handing her a package. “He asked that you put this on for the occasion,” said Perry, giving a small smile. “I’ll be waiting down at the limo.”

Sheri stared at the box in her hand, thinking, oh not another present. She’d been adamant not to go on any shopping sprees while in Italy, despite Dean’s desire to spoil her with expensive indulgences. She’d only chosen to wear the outfit tonight because she didn’t have anything else that befit the event and she certainly didn’t want to embarrass Dean. However, she did intend to return both the dress and heels right afterward.

Finding that the box held a set of breathtaking diamond earrings and a matching necklace, Sheri gasped. I can’t wear this to the ball! No other sign would read “Mine” more than showing up next to Dean wearing such exquisite, costly gems.

She couldn’t understand why Dean would keep disregarding her feelings this way. He could excuse it away, she knew, possibly with telling her he simply wanted to see her look perfect for the evening. But to Sheri, it seemed like more and more, he was intent on staking his claim. This could be his kind of test, to see if she’d follow his lead or defy him.

Before now, she had been the one arranging gifts and trinkets for Dean’s other women. Now that she was on the receiving end, it left a bad taste in her mouth. Maybe mostly because she knew that just like them, she could be as easily discarded.
