The Emerald Crown Hotel was nestled in a ten-kilometer land, facing the beautiful sea and has the best strip of sand, there's chaise and umbrellas and loungers in the oceanfront. The hotel was situated outside the town.

Everywhere that Jessy looks, Palm trees were dotting the front and back of the hotel. It was an oasis of green trees and green ornamental plants. Perfectly designed to give its clientele a healthy dose of nature. The manicured lawn was splendid. Two sparkling pools can be found on both sides of the hotel.

Palm trees were lining up on the front of the hotel leading to the stunning beach.

"There are ten private villas at the back of this building that can be rented if the client doesn't want to stay in the hotel. Each of the villas was boosting a state of the art amenities. Furniture's, decors and appliances are top-notch with private pools, gym room, and theater room. Just say a word Jess and we will stay in one of the villa's for one night so that you can experience its amazing amenities," Adam said.

Jessy grinned. "Would love to, one day, but not right now. I have so many things to do, so little time," she answered.

Adam draped his arms around her shoulder. "You're one of the busiest and hard-working women I knew. You deserve a break and pamper yourself once in a while. I will pamper you like a Princess!" he said.

Caden snickered. "Save the flattery in the bedroom after the party!"

Adam smacked Caden's shoulder playfully. "Mate, you're too loud!"

Caden smirk.

After a while, the couple exited the car to enter the hotel's entrance.

Caden looked at the dashing couple. "Lovers...call me if you wanna go home later. I will check out the next hotel, I heard they had a nice resto-bar there, I will have my fix there," Caden said.

"Take care, bro!" Adam said.

Caden steered the car out of the hotel's vicinity and find a place that would accommodate him.

"This is a massive hotel with 400 rooms to choose from. Each room has a different interior design and furniture fixture so that every time the returning client come back here, they will be greeted with a different room each time, unlike other hotels, each room is distinct from one another, giving people an incredible experience. I heard they have an excellent Michelin Star restaurant here, one catered for seafood lover and the other for contemporary cuisines. They made sure all the guests will be satisfied with the hotel's services in terms of amenities and food offerings," Adam elaborated further.

Jessy was amused. "Adam, you're talking as if you are one of the endorsers of this hotel? Are you?" she smiled.

Adam grinned from ear to ear. "I was asked to be one of their endorsers indeed! So I was briefed of a lot of things concerning this hotel so that I can promote the hotel well," he answered.

"Ah, that's why you are knowledgeable about the hotel's layout and amenities!" Jessy blurted out.

"Yeah, do I sound convincing to you?" he winks at her.

"You are amazing!" she replied.

"I do have a suite here on the 10th floor just for tonight. Let's go there to refresh ourselves," he said. "But for now we have to walk the red carpet inside the hotel entrance for photos," he guided her into the corner as they wait for their turn to be photographed by the press people who would run an article regarding the hotel on their magazines and newspapers the next day to give more exposure to the newly opened hotel.

Jessy observed the glittering gowns of the ladies milling around the area. OMG! they're wearing provocative clothes showing more flesh and cleavage especially the women of the same age as her. She seemed to be the only one wearing a conservative gown. Does it bother her?

Well...not really. She was comfortable with her dress 'coz it covered all her important assets decently. The only exposed skin was her arms. "What I'm gonna do in the red carpet?" she asked nervously.

"Just imitate those people posing in front of the camera right now, just follow their leads. Just show them your best smile and that's it we're done! If you are intimidated by the glare of the camera, don't look at those photographers in the eyes, just smile and pretend they did not exist, okay? Don't worry let's hold hands so that you won't feel nervous," he said realizing that Jessy is not used to the limelight compared to him.

Adam and Jessy were holding each other's hands.

A few minutes later, they were prompted by the organizer 'coz it's now their turn to walk on the red carpet.

Jessy followed Adam's instruction, she smiled at everyone without directly staring at the photographers.

Whew! They stood there a minute or less and it was over quickly.

"How do you feel?" Adam asked her when they were already out of the red carpet.

"Not bad really. I find it surreal that anyone would take my photo," she said jokingly, even though she knows that she was only photographed because she was in the arms of the famous model and endorser, Gavin Sanders!

Adam looked at her face. "By tomorrow, everyone will know I had a stunning girlfriend!" he grinned. "And I'm very proud of her!" he added. He planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. A loving gesture that was caught by a camera.

That camera was owned by someone, and she was taking photos of the couple in the red carpet walk as well. She returned to her table which was situated a few meters away from the red carpet.

"So, you finally saw Gavin's girlfriend, eh? That girl looks stunning in that demure gown of hers," there was a hint of teasing on the girl's voice.

"Now we know why in spite of all your efforts, Gavin doesn't glance at you because you are not his type. Look at that girl on his arms, she has this naive look on her, she was exuding innocence yet in a sexy way. That's is how Gavin like his woman, virgin like!" said the other lady.

The woman sporting a red lipstick on her lips was totally upset and angry. Her so-called friends were having a good time taunting and ridiculing her because she failed to catch Gavin's attention even if she already has done everything in her power to attract him and lure him to her side. Now she finally understands why he simply can not be swayed to see other women because of his girlfriend. And he looked so in love with his lady love, it infuriates her so!

"So, the rumors are true! Gavin indeed had a girlfriend! From the looks of it they were so smitten to each other, look at that...the way he looked at her full of love and admiration...and the meaningful look they shared was so adorably sweet only two people in love can manifest that," said the other woman.

"Hey, stop hurting our friend's feelings here!" the other girl reprimanded the talkative woman.

"What's wrong? Stella had a hard time accepting the fact that she loses on our bet if she will admit then we all can move on from it. Gavin is not the only guy around, it's no used that Stella will waste her time on him, getting obsessive for nothing," she said.

Stella, the woman with the red lips, gritted her teeth in anger. Her heart was filled with extreme jealousy right now. She can accept the truth that she failed with the bet she made with her friends five months ago that she will end up being Gavin's girlfriend which she failed to do, but she can't accept the fact that she and Gavin will have no future together! Dammit, it's a blow to her heart and pride! She is the type of woman who always gets what she wants, by hook or by crook!

She looked at her friends' faces. "Okay, guys, I admitted my defeat. I lose in our bet. I will comply with the rules. I will fly the three of us into the newly open resort in the Caribbean and stay there for one week all expenses paid by me. So get ready to pack your things and your passport, we will fly next week," she said with a straight poker face.

The ladies beside Stella shrieked in happiness. "Hooray! The Caribbean here we come!" they shouted in unison.

Stella looked at the photo of the lovers in her camera. Gavin's woman has a refreshing beauty and she has a fabulous shiny long black hair cascading down her back. That must be the reason why Gavin likes her. They looked so in love together on the outset. It looks like she had already lost hope of bagging the handsome, famous and elusive model Gavin Sanders.

But, the situation was not truly hopeless yet...

When she heard of the rumors that Gavin was about to introduce his sweetheart to the public soon, she already had a wicked plan in place.

If her plan works, then she might still have a shot in owning Gavin!
