Chapter 94: Meeting Mr Pierre
Brooke, armed with the information she had gleaned from Kim, went about trying to get a way to meet the merchandiser. She bribed his assistant to let her know about his movement and when she discovered that he was going out for dinner, she immediately swung into action.
When she got to the restaurant, she approached the merchandiser, a suave and sophisticated man named Jean Pierre. She knew that she had to tread carefully, to convince him without arousing too much suspicion. One wrong move and all her plans could fall to the ground.
"Mr Pierre," she began, her voice soft and seductive, "can I sit with you? There is something important I would like to tell you."
He raised an eyebrow, intrigued at her bold appearance and before he could give her an answer, Brooke sat opposite him.
"And who might you be? What do you want..."
"Brooke, Brooke Maddox." Brooke said and held a hand out of a handshake.
"What do can I help you with?" He asked with narrowed eyes.
"I am a huge fan of your work and I feel so honored to be in your presence sir." Brooke gushed, easing Mr Pierre whose face brightened at the compliments the pretty lady was bestowing on him.
He nodded and smiled. "How do you know me?" He asked.
"Your collaboration with the most reputable fashion houses points out your key sense of fashion and innovation. You have been instrumental in building the the fashion world to the state it is at." Brooke continued, stroking his ego.
"Do you work in fashion? Is that why you have sought me out? You need a favor?" He asked, curious about what she wanted. "Listen, arrange a meeting with my personal assistant. I don’t like to be bothered during my private time.
