Nicholas’ continuing insistence he was trying to seduce Serena should have been irritating, but it felt more like a joke, a private one between just them. When Nicholas asked if Serena would meet him again she thought for a moment. She had only just met this man, who had been totally open about being at the party was to pick up women, yet she had just spent the most fun time since moving to the city. “OK, why not?... But it needs to be somewhere very public...I’m still not totally sure of your intentions.” Serena replied, adding “Do you know Ebenezers?... It’s on the corner of F Street...I could meet you there at 11:30?”.<br/><br/>Before Nicholas could answer Serena’s phone buzzed. She swiped the screen and read the text message. “Hmmm...My husband is actually on time for once…” Serena announced. Looking up she smiled at Nicholas. “I need to go now...but I’ll be at Ebenezers tomorrow anyway...I’ll look out for you…”. Serena raised her hand to wave goodbye and walked back into the party hall.<br/><br/>Serena scanned the crowd for her husband and saw him talking to a group of three people; two women and a man. As she approached them Serena saw that the man and one of the women were quite mature, probably in their sixties. The other woman was much younger, not older than thirty, and it was she who had Christian’s full attention. It was not difficult to see why. The young woman had a thick mane of blond hair and was wearing a dress with a plunging neckline that struggling to contain her plentiful bosom.<br/><br/>(https://tse1.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.K6ZpzDofh3Ek2ewPJvIujwDfEs)<br/><br/>As Serena drew closer it was plain to see that the blond was flirting outrageously with Christian, toying with her hair, giggling at his every word and sticking out her ample chest. It was also obvious that Christian was being seduced by the woman's charms. His line of vision was fixed on the deep cleavage being presented in front of him. Serena could feel her anger starting to boil up. She was a stereotypical woman from an Italian family with a temper that once lit would burn extremely fierce.<br/><br/>“Hello, darling…” gushed Serena as she linked arms with her husband. “It really is time we were going…” she said in a sweet sickly voice, smiling brightly at the other people in the group. Without waiting for Christian to reply she yanked him away and pulled him towards the exit. Serena had a face like thunder as she turned to look at her husband. “Who was that trollop?... The company Christmas bonus?...” she hissed as she dragged her husband out of the hall.<br/><br/>
