Chapter Forty Seven
"The plan is we go to his warehouse where he keeps the collection and we cut them into pieces"
"How do you plan to achieve all these with just me?"
"I'm planning to use Samantha since she knows something about him"
"Samantha has left the city"
"When? I didn't know"
"After she came to ask for forgiveness she told me she was leaving. My brother broke up with her and she said she can't stay in this city knowing she wronged people"
"She got what she deserved. Now back to the plan"
"Why don't you get someone to do it instead, must we do it ourselves?"
"I don't trust anybody with this and this is going to be fun doing it with you"
"I'm scared. I don't want to enter any trouble with anybody, can't we just let it go. You said those designs don't mean anything to you again"
"No, don't man deserves a taste of his medicine. He has been on my nerves since and what he did was the final straw. I must teach him nobody messes with me and goes scot free"
"I'm begging you let's just forget it and plan a better launch for you. Please"
"I'm sorry, I won't listen to you on this. I'm going to do it with or without you. I've been quiet for too long and he is taken my silence for weakness. So are you in or out?"
Constantine had already made his decision and he was not planning on going back on it. I thought of everything that happened and he deserved it
"In," I said with a wicked grin
"You said you have pictures of Samantha giving him those designs. Right?" I nodded "Perfect, we are going to use it on the day of the launch, instead of the designs to be shown on the projector those pictures would show"
"Okay"
"I got scissors and torchlights. We are going to use them at night when we go to the warehouse"
"It seems you had this planned out for a long time"
"Yes, I planned it when I found out he paid Samantha to steak them"
"How did you find out Samantha was the one that took the designs?"
"That's a story for another day. Here, put this cap on, so your face would not show in case of a security camera" I put on the cap and we entered his car, and he drove us to Daniel's warehouse just close to the building. We picked the lock of the warehouse and entered, there were samples on the mannequin and some were put in a box. We destroyed all the other pairs of underwear and put them back in the box and sealed it.
As we were leaving, I hit my leg hard on one of the boxes and something fell
"Shit" I cursed out. Constantine came to my side and helped me move. A guard came in to check where the noise came from and luckily a rat passed by so he left. We left quickly before we got caught

The Day Of The Launch
Daniel invited Constantine for the launch and I was going with Constantine as his date. I thought why not see the drama live. I wore a black body con dress with an open neckline while Constantine was dressed in a black Armani suit.
"You look so beautiful, they won't be able to keep their eyes off you"
"Same as you" I gave him a light kiss on his lips and cleaned them because my lipstick left a mark.
"Let's go" he drove to the venue and we got there in one piece without trying anything funny in the car. He opened the car for me and took my hands in his, a valet came and drove the car. We walked on the carpet as the paparazzi and reporters took pictures of us. The reporters were trying to get a word from Constantine as they kept asking him numerous questions like
"Mr. Rodriguez, when are you announcing a new collection?" One reporter asked
"Mr. Rodriguez, who is the lady beside you. Is she the person you've been seeing secretly?" Another asked. He just held my waist as we walked through the flood of reporters and people. Daniel was talking to some people when he noticed us walk in and he came to meet us. He had a smirk on his face.
"Rodriguez, I didn't expect you to honor my invitation but I'm happy you came to celebrate me" Constantine scoffed
"I came here to get tips on how to plan my launch Caesare," he said with a game smile
Daniel laughed "I hope you get enough tips. Enjoy the party and your girlfriend is very beautiful" his eyes raking my body and Constantine held me tighter
"Ciao" Daniel said
"Disgusting prick" Constantine muttered "Let's go and have a seat"
He led me to a seat while a waiter passed around with drinks and we took one as he passed by. Some men came to meet Constantine and they talked for a while.
The MC announced the commencement of the event.
"The models are getting prepared to walk the runway with the new Caesare collection, please let's do well to applaud them when they come. As we wait for them to showcase the underwear please let's see the samples on the projector" I smiled. This is where the drama begins
The host signaled for the display of the design and everybody's eye was on the projector. The first picture to pop on the screen was Samantha giving the designs to him and he was laughing and he gave her a fat envelope. There was murmuring everywhere
"I guess we have the wrong picture," the MC said. The look on Daniel's face was funny. There was a write-up about Daniel stealing designs from other companies and claiming them as his own. Investors from his company stood up to leave and he was trying to stop them but they still left. Someone ran to him and shouted
"Sir, the designs have been cut to pieces and the models can't wear them" Daniel held his chest like he was going to have an attack. There was commotion as everybody began to shout and reporters swarmed in asking questions.
He was going to be on all the news stations and blogs tomorrow
