When she didn’t answer, he glanced back at her and saw that she was looking at him and he felt a bit upset.
Did she have a lover? Someone special that calls her Love or Loveth? How many affairs did she have in the past? These thoughts kept circulating around his head and he grew more upset when she didn’t say anything about it.
“Why? Does that bother you?” she asked.
“So you did have a lover? Boyfriend?” he could taste how bitter that question rolled off his tongue.
“No,” she answered, she turns to look forward, adjusted in her seat, and closed her eyes.
She would have just enjoyed messing with him and said yes but she doesn’t want more questions from him and decided to tell the truth
“I was going out with this guy though” she answered.
“The guy from the party?” he asked “he was the one” he answered for himself.
She didn’t answer but kept her eyes closed.
He was vexed now, so she was so eager to fornicate when they were getting married. Was he going to be her side dude when they marry? Was he?
“No wonder you were so eager to leave with him, you wanted to ditch me at our engagement party” he spat angrily holding the steering wheel till his knuckles turned white.
She opened her eyes and looked at the enraged man on the wheels.
What was his problem? Why is he suddenly concerned about something that small? What in the world is he stressing or getting angry over?
“What is your problem?” She voiced out her thoughts.
“Nothing, it is actually what is your problem?… you were so ready to leave me at our engagement party because you wanted to get some from a guy you once dated?” he glanced at her, narrowed his eyes at her, and put his gaze back on the road.
“You know, you have a really great issue. First things first his name is Philip. Second, we haven’t officially started dating… we were just getting to know each other better and that night I was escorting him to his car. I don’t know why you are getting so worked up, on matters that are none of your business.”
“Well for your information, it is definitely my business”
“Why are you concerned? Not like I interest you or so? Why are you still thinking about that night?” she narrowed her eyes and leaned in a bit “or is there something else to it?”
He turned to her and widened his eyes at how close she was and he leaned a bit away and focused back on the road clearing his throat.
He held his index finger up “You don’t, and I mean in any way interest me and…” he put his middle finger up to “… I was bothered my reputation might go down the drain if my future wife leaves me for another man” he said trying to convince her or himself?
“You don’t interest me either” she spat feeling her blood boil at his comment.
“Shame” he muttered and she narrowed her gaze on him.
She had to say it back to him because he actually doesn’t interest her. he might be a good-looking billionaire but she had seen better.
She leaned back and closed her eyes groaning a bit.
‘What were you actually expecting? That he would say how much he suddenly fell for you? And confess like in movies? This is reality girl it wouldn’t happen’
“I just don’t want you around any man or cheating behind me, I don’t share what is mine,” he said the last part deeply.
She opened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief.
“We can still be friends though,” he said after some time and she rolled her eyes.
Wasn’t it okay when they weren’t talking? There she was complaining he shuts her up when she tries to start a conversation and now he wants them to talk, even be friends.
“I don’t like you,” she shook her head in disbelief
“Feeling is mutual Love, see we would make such lovely couple” he hit the steering wheel and let out a ‘woah’
“I don’t think I like what is going on now” she folds her hand and pouted.
“I don’t like it one bit either, I am just trying to tolerate you” he shrugged and stopped at a traffic stop.
“Asshole” she muttered.
“Oh you mean handsome?” he looked at her and tilted his head a bit to the side. “You are beautiful by the way, just a bit needy… looking for attention I guess” he continued driving when the traffic light went green making a right turn.
“I look needy?” she asked
“Well yes, your dressing each time we meet up”
“You talk like you weren’t undressing me every time” she spat and he let out a laugh hitting the horn mistakenly.
“What? I am a man, Loveth. When I see a grown woman in sexy attire I get attracted to them. It’s what every man feels” he said matter of factly.
“Wow I didn’t know you were a man until you told me” she adds and the amused look he had slipped from his face. He looked at his side of the window and back to the road with a sigh.
“You mentioned a while ago that you don’t wear nice clothing. Love, wearing them just for me is useless… your boobs are great but I have seen better”
Her mouth hung open at what just came out of his mouth. Did he just say that to her? How dare he say that? She needy? Looking for attention? Her boobs? See better? He kept talking but whatever he was saying was going straight to voicemail and her head was ringing.
‘Is there a bell? Why is there a ringing sound in my head?’ she wondered but there was no bell ringing in her head. It was what he said that ticked her off. She could feel the heat rise from her neck to her cheeks.
She must look like a tomato that is about to explode.
“Stop the car” she suddenly says.
“What?” he let out a laugh.
“Stop. The. Car” she emphasized each word angrily and tried to open the door. Thankfully he was quick to lock it from the driver’s side.
“Are you crazy?” he asked and she stopped her face like that of a child being scolded.
His lips were in a thin line as he kept driving.
He turned and entered a parking lot then parked close to the delivery van. He switched off the engine and got down from the car.
She raised her head when she heard the car open and close and was about to open hers when it opened and a hand was held out for her. She looked up and saw Dimitri there with a straight face looking anywhere but her eyes.
“Come on, we are almost late for the appointment” she held his hand and he pulled her gently out of the car and closed the door pressing the lock button on his car keys.
“Dimitri, I am sorry… I didn’t mean t–” she began but he interrupted her.
“Let’s go” he puts his hand on her lower back and leads her towards the door “At least you didn’t kill yourself,” he said quite harshly and she winced. “When you are angry, don’t act before you think… you are the only child of your parents, the least you could do is consider them and don’t act irrationally,” he said lowly when they entered the shop.
She actually did feel bad, she did not only scare herself but Dimitri… not like he cares much about her but her parents will be scared and that might cause both their death if Dimitri told them she jumped out of the car in the middle of the road.
“Hello, my name is Dimitri Lorenzo and this is my fiancée Audriana Bernard. We have an appointment with Samantha” he said to the lady on the counter.
She smiled and gestured to them to come “She asked me to bring you in once you arrived”
They stopped in front of a brown-colored plush-looking door “have a nice day sir, ma’am” she left them and went back to the counter.
He knocked and took a look at her.
“Smile” he whispered when they opened the door to enter.
