Chapter thirty-twoThe operaI sat down in front of the mirror, I was dressed in a white double V-neck cocktail gown. I stared right into the mirror as I looked at my own reflection which stared right back at me.“What have I done?” I let out a disappointed sigh. The thought of going back to him crossed my mind but I had already said yes to him and cancelling may not be the right thing to do. “What am I going to do?” I asked myself in the quiet room.After much staring at my reflection, I began to apply a bit of light make-up and soon I was done. I walked out of the room to meet with him, he was already set and was dressed in his white tuexdo suit, the same suit I first saw him with.Gently I approached him, he was ready and we but entered the suv and drove off to his personal private hanger.His private plane was parked with it's door already opened like it was expecting us.
