Chapter 396 The Plan

"Exactly. That is the thing with Edward. It is not just about time. My man is just, well... I don\'t know. But I think –and please, do not quote me or tell your friend this, I beg you, but I think he might feel something for her.

I have caught him staring for too long. I have noticed how his voice inflects when he says her name. But I cannot be sure. We will have to wait to find out."

Chynna almost could not let him finish. She sprang out of her seat and did a happy dance.

"I say we do not wait. Yes, let\'s not wait to find out. If you think there is something there, and I know without a doubt that that fire head girl is smitten even though she would much rather talk about how much she hates him.

We must help them get past their silly egos until they are forced to admit how much they really like each other." She squeaked with excitement, rubbing her palms together.

"That is just meddlesome, you know?" Jun Mo said. "But even if I were to agree to such a thing, how would you propose we do this?" he pondered.

"Oh, that, my darling, is exactly why you were just the perfect one for me to go to," Chynna beamed.

She felt like an absolute genius in that moment. And even while standing, the perfect plot had begun to brew in her mind.

The rest of the day was spent elaborating the entire plan and finetuning same. The pair felt like undercover agents working on the most important mission and to be successful, they would have to be extremely careful not to let anything slip.

************

Chynna had explained every bit of the plan to Jun Mo. It did not take long for him to understand just how right she was about everything.

And how timely too. Because every year, his motherhosted a charity ball as her way of contributing to society.

The money donated by attendants would be used to fund a notable project for the next one year.

And there was always such a crowd of high-profile people from every sphere of endeavor.one of such events was due in about two weeks and Chynna though it would be a perfect place for her and Jun Mo to work their charm on the unsuspecting Amy and Edward.

Jun Mo had the easiest end of the task or so it would seem. All he had to do was invite his friend to the gala. It was a given that he would say yes to attending.

He was after all one of the most sought-after business persons anyone would want to have at an even like that and then, he would have to do it as a favor to his friend and as an extension of much needed courtesy to his parents.

They would however, need an excuse for Amy to be present at the event and in the company of Edward. But how they would achieve that posed a problem for a little while. But then it was not much of a problem.

Jun Mo decided he would tell Edward that he was to chair the occasion. This would mean he needed to take note of the donations made as he would have to follow up with payments made on pledges.

He knew Edward would be too busy to want such a flimsy role. And that was the point. Once they had it all figured out, they enjoyed a few drinks and caught up on the very different lives they had been leading.

When it was time for Chynna to leave, she felt a relunctance she could not place. She wanted to stay, she wanted so badly to enjoy a little more time with Jun Mo but time itself seemed to have run out on them and darkness would soon fall.

And so she forced herself to shrug it off. She focused on how she would tell Amy about the dinner.

She knew her friend would want to opt out and run away screaming and so it was her duty to convince and calm her down in preparation for the big event.

She busied herself thinking up different scenarios and how they would both react to them. She had so much fun she started to laugh all by herself in the car.

But in her mental wanderings, she hit on a bright idea that she had not seen coming at all. She almost slapped herself for not coming to it immediately because it was brilliant! She could not wait to get to Amy\'s.

The weight of the news she was bearing was almost too heavy and was starting to crush her. She put her foot down on the gas pedal and raced towards her friend\'s home. Her smile was at once happy and mischievous.

*******

"No way that is true!" Amy exclaimed. She had jumped up immediately Chynna broke the news to her. She put her hands on her forehead and her eyes were as wide as saucers behind her glasses.

"Chynna, you need to tell me exactly what is going on because this is so out of the blues and I do not know how to feel about it at all. I mean, why would Jun Mo want to take me to his mother\'s gala as a date? That is just unbelievable.

It just never happens. I mean, I can bet he has a long list of women to get through before he even thinks of someone like me. This is..." she shook her head as words faild her in expressing her surprise at what Chynna had just laid on her.

Chynna just sat there, enjoying the show. She felt pleased on two levels. She would deal with the Jun Mo end of the drama later but for now, she had to relish this one and play along with it.

Her bright idea had hit her on the way here and she had realized that she could very well take two birds off the branch with one stone if she threw her rocks well.
