Trina gets ready for another benefit. She’s the hostess. This one is a masquerade ball. She and a few single women/men will be auctioned off & become the lucky highest bidders escort for the remainder of the evening. Her stingy, cruel, tyrant of a control-freak father suffers in the late stages. Since there’s zero love loss between her and her father, she’s actually looking forward to him pushing up daisies. Rumor has it that he’s hired a new CEO/partner (Chad) which nobody in the family or business has met, but he’s supposed to attend the event. The new CEO actually does attend but he doesn’t let anyone know who he is and he’s amused at all the speculation concerning the why, how, and to what extent. There’s immediate chemistry between Trina and Chad. He bids the highest for her.She tries to figure out who he is, but he shrouds himself in mystery. Both have masks on and both imagine the other’s eyes are on them. In the middle of mingling, Trina boldly asks him if he wants to grab a bottle of champagne and find someplace more comfy. Things escalate.
