idea.”
“That’s not true.”
“Of course it is. And all the while you were sleeping with me you were blowing Mitch, everyone knew it. He used to brag about it all the time. It’s the only reason he took you on as a client!”
Caroline’s face burnt red with fury.
“Leave Mitch out of this!” she yelled.
“Why? The guy’s a scumbag and you are just a slut. Stay the hell away from me, I don’t want to catch anything you’ve got,” Josh tossed her aside and began to walk away but she followed behind, shouting at him.
“She’s just a nobody!” she screamed, causing people to look at the drama unfolding before them at the party.
Caroline’s lashes were now unable to hold her tears and she was crying as she spoke, her famous physique shaking slightly with it.
“She won’t make you happy! No one can but me!”
“Goodbye Caroline!”
“You’ll come back, you always do!”

Amy was getting seriously concerned about where her date had gone when another man sat down opposite her at the table. A man she immediately recognized.
Clark Smith-Jackson was forty five and the most famous playboy in the world. He owned a ridiculously successful internet company, several newspapers and a ludicrous amount of real estate.
The previous year Forbes had cited him as the third most wealthy man in the world. And it showed.
He wore a crisp suit, set off by all the diamond encrusted jewellery he wore. His hair was silver, cut short and modern in style, and his blue eyes regarded Amy mischievously.
He was arrogant yet accomplished. While Josh was known as being reckless and treating women badly, Clark had a reputation for being a sensational lover and for the brief time he was with a woman, he made her feel like an absolute princess. He was a modern day gentleman and most women melted at just seeing him.
Even Amy had to admit that he had an allure.
“Can I help you?” she asked, wondering why he had sat down.
“Do you know what I do when I see a beautiful woman?” Clark asked.
“No.”
“I come over, I sit with her, and I get her a drink.”
“Okay,” Amy replied uneasily.
“So,” Clark smiled, revealing two rows of perfect teeth. “What are you drinking?”
“Oh, no thank you,” Amy waved her hand dismissively.
“No? Because you are here with Josh Roberts and you are waiting for him to come back?” Clark asked.
“Well, yes,” Amy admitted.
“Sweetheart, Josh Roberts is a boy. I’m a man. Do you know what he does at events like these? He goes and has sex with that little tart Demure and they film it and then leak it to the press to advance their sad little careers. Whereas when I see a striking woman, engage her in conversation and get to know her. Then the next day I fly her out to my private island.”
“Sounds exotic,” Amy smiled, feeling rather unimpressed with Clark’s attack on Josh.
“It is. I could see you there… lying in a hammock, wearing just a smile.”
Amy blushed but it was all a bit much for her, Clark was old enough to be her father! She wasn’t interested in his wealth, or his island, she liked Josh. She already knew about the video, she doubted there was anyone in the world who hadn’t heard about it.
“I’m flattered, Mr. Smith-Jackson, really I am. But I’m after a boy, not a man.” She smiled sweetly as Clark’s face soured and he got up and left.
“Whoa, what did I miss?” Josh said as he sat down just as the billionaire left in a huff.
“Nothing, just some guy inviting me to stay on his island and wear nothing but a smile,” Amy said being overly blasé for comedic affect.
“Sounds like quite the offer,” Josh noted.
“I’m waiting on a better one,” Amy smiled flirtatiously.
“Oh?” Josh asked, interested.
“I was kind of hoping you’d invite me back to yours,” she said
“That’s not true.”
“Of course it is. And all the while you were sleeping with me you were blowing Mitch, everyone knew it. He used to brag about it all the time. It’s the only reason he took you on as a client!”
Caroline’s face burnt red with fury.
