Chapter 423: Seducing Dr. Hottie

Chapter 423: Seducing Dr. HottieAmy rolled her eyes as she watched Miley give instructions to the girl who was styling her hair. If anyone walked into the salon, they would think Miley was a professional hairstylist or something.        

"No. Not there. Yes, right there. Good. I look better from that angle," Miley explained as the girl parted one side of her hair and rolled it up with Brazilian rollers so that when she let down the hair, some of it would fall in curls and cover the right part of her face.     

"Can you just let her do her job?" Amy asked, and Miley shook her head.     

"No, I can't. I paying her to make me look irresistible so I have to get my money's worth. Don't I, sweetie?" Miley asked the hairstylist who giggled.    

"Absolutely," the girl agreed, and Amy rolled her eyes.     

"You are so annoying. If I were your stylist I would leave you to fix your hair yourself," Amy said, making both Miley and the stylists laugh.    

"Good thing you're not my stylist. They're more good-natured and well-mannered than you," Miley said with a sweet smile.     

"Whatever. But on a serious note, I see no reason why you're dolling up or having me do the same when it's just dinner. It's not like you're going on a real date with your boyfriend or anything. We should be at home having a good rest instead of doing this," Amy complained.    

"That is why you are still single and untouched. If you dress up and go out more often, you'd have men standing outside your door and waiting to eat out of your hand," Miley said with a superior air.    

"I'm single and untouched because I chose to be so, and not because I lack opportunity," Amy said defensively, and Miley snorted.     

"And I don't want men standing outside my door and eating out of my hand. Unlike you, I'd rather be in a committed relationship with just one man, than have casual sex with just any man," Amy added, and Miley shrugged.    

"I don't regret having fun. If I had been keeping myself like you and something like this happened to me I would have been even more devastated, don't you think so?" Miley asked, and Amy nodded in agreement.     

"You have a point. Still, I think all of this fuss over our look is unnecessary."    

"It is not unnecessary. When you're going into a battle you have to put on your whole armor..."    

"I didn't know we were going into a battlefield," Amy said dryly.    

"We are. Our weapons for this battle are our beauty and brain. We have to first knock him off balance with our appearance, and then while he is trying to recover we make the proposition," Miley said with a wide smile, and Amy rolled her eyes.     

"Do you think Dr. Hottie is the type who would say yes in place of a no simply because he's staring at exposed cleavage?"     

"Still, it's better to be ready. Failing to plan is planning to fail, have you never heard of that? We should look our best. This strategy has always helped in the corporate world," Miley said, before glancing at her hairstylist who had stepped away from her after she was done rolling up her hair.    

"Please inform the make-up artist that you're done and she can take over," she said, before glancing at Amy once again.     

"You promised to be by me and do whatever makes me happy, remember? This makes me happy so do it without complaining. I won't always be around to do this with you, so please let me enjoy this as I have always done, okay?" Miley pleaded, and Amy sighed.    

"Must you keep doing that?" Amy asked, mildly annoyed with Miley for reminding her of her limited time frame.    

"Yes. I have to keep reminding you so that you don't forget. I don't want you to take these last precious moments of ours for granted," she said as she glanced at Amy who was also having her hair styled.    

"Can you give her a more sexy and feminine look? That hairstyle of hers is too practical and formal," Miley said, and the hairstylist gave her a nod.    

"I love my hair just the way it is," Amy insisted making the hairstylist pause as she waited for them to make up their mind.     

"I know. I've seen you with that hairstyle for as long as I can remember. I want to see you in something different now. When I'm gone you can go back to it," Miley said, and Amy sighed.    

She couldn't believe that Miley was really taking advantage of her illness to get everything she wanted.         

"Go on. Do it. Give me a more feminine look. Do whatever she wants," Amy said, and Miley clapped happily.     

"That's the spirit!"    

"So what do you plan to do if he says no?" Amy asked after a while, and Miley shrugged.     

"Then I guess I will find other ways to get what I want. But I'm not going to think about that right now. I'd rather focus on what to do when he says yes," she said with a happy smile.     

"Of course. You are still as optimistic as ever," Amy murmured.    

"It's almost 4 PM. Please try to be fast," Miley said as the make-up artist joined them.     

Amy sighed as she watched Miley through the mirror. As much as she liked that Miley was excited about something despite her condition, she was worried that Miley might be setting herself up for possible rejection and heartbreak.    

From what she had observed about Lucas, he seemed like a principled person and she doubted he was going to give up his principles and agree to do something like that no matter the amount of money they were going to offer him.     

What could she do for Miley if Lucas rejected the offer?    

"You know what I think? Maybe either of us can seduce him," as though she just read her thoughts, Miley suggested with a wide smile and flashed the makeup artist an apologetic smile.     

"What?" Amy asked, looking completely lost since she didn't understand where Miley was coming from with that statement or where she was headed.     

"You heard me. If he refuses to do it after we both have tried to convince him, then you can seduce him. I doubt he would agree to be intimate with me. He will remain suspicious of me, but not of you," Miley suggested with a wide smile as though she had just come up with a brilliant suggestion.    

"Me?" Amy asked in disbelief and shook her head when Miley bobbed her head enthusiastically.    

"No. I don't think that is a good idea," Amy said, but Miley was still smiling widely, as the more she thought about it, the more appealing it became.    

"Scratch that, not I don't think. I know it is a very terrible idea. Of all things how can you expect ME to seduce him?" Amy asked in disbelief.    

"You called him Dr. Hottie, didn't you? Doesn't that mean you find him attractive too?" Miley asked, and Amy blinked at her in confusion.    

Was she sexually attracted to Lucas? Thinking he looked nice and attractive didn't mean there was any sexual attraction, did it? "No. That's not what..."    

"So you don't think he is attractive?" Miley cut in and narrowed her eyes at Amy.    

Amy sighed when she noticed the look of mild annoyance and amusement that passed between the makeup artist and her hairstylist. "Finding him attractive has nothing to do with this," Amy protested weakly.    

"If you're done with her hair please get the other make-up artist," Miley said to Amy's hairstylist before looking at Amy again.    

"He is good-looking and really decent. You also find him attractive. I like him and I approve of him. So even if he rejects my offer, I'd want you to be with him. I think you both would be great together," Miley said, and Amy looked at her incredulously.    

"Are you crazy? What are you talking about right now? I don't think I understand what is going on in your head. He is a person, not a possession that any of us can decide to have or not have. Besides, didn't you say he just broke off his engagement with that crazy girl, and he was devastated? Going into a new relationship is probably the last thing on his mind. So if he says no, we should let him be and forget about him," Amy said, and Miley's lips pouted sulkily.    

"But I like him."    

"If you like him then you shouldn't be selfish. You should also consider what he wants even if it means staying away from him," Amy said, and Miley sighed.     

"I'm beginning to wonder if you're my best friend or his," Miley said, and Amy smiled.        

"I'm sure you know I'm telling you this only because you're my best friend. If he says no, accept it maturely and move on," Amy advised.    

"Alright. I've heard you. Let's hope he doesn't say no then," Miley said as she looked at her reflection in the mirror.    

"Okay. No more talking. I need to let her do her job. Your makeup artist is here too," Miley said as she flashed an apologetic look at the makeup artist who was waiting for her to finish talking before resuming.    

Although, neither of them said another word to each other as they let their makeup artists work on their faces, but they both had the same thought on their minds.     

Seducing Dr. Hottie.    

Asking Amy to seduce Lucas if he turned down her proposal had little or nothing to do with wanting his sperm for her baby. Even if she wasn't going to be getting any romance in her life as she wanted, seeing Amy get some would bring joy to her and would make her last days memorable. Especially if it was with someone like Lucas.     

She was going to find a way to convince Amy to seduce Lucas. She knew that Amy would do it as long as she thought she was doing it for her. That was going to be her plan B. If Lucas refused to be beside her as her man, then she was going to find a way to keep him as Amy's man.    

They would both be good for each other, Lucas and Amy. Also, there would always be that satisfaction of knowing that either she or Amy was with Rachel's man.     

Amy on the other hand wondered what had possessed Miley to come up with such a suggestion. Seducing Lucy's brother? What ever made Miley think she was capable of something like that? The thought of it alone made her want to laugh out loud.     

"This is perfect," Miley said, once her makeup artist finished and she looked at her reflection in the mirror.     

She stood from her seat and faced Amy, "Now you look irresistible," she cooed as she touched Amy's chin, making Amy smile.    

"I think we are almost done here. I will go sort out the bills at the cashier's desk, while you finish up," Miley said before walking away.    

Once Amy was done, she joined Miley, and as they walked out of the mall together, heads turned to stare at them, "You see that? Lucas is not going to be able to say no to both of us."
