{Conversation At The Dining}
Landon POV
Camila just made my peaceful sleep disappear with those stupid lies of hers. I enter my bathroom to have my bath.
*****
I came down the stairs when the maid informed me of the arrival of my breakfast at the dining table. I just put on a short and armless cloth for the dining. I met Andrew and Camila already seated. Didn’t waste much time standing, so I took my seat and sat down.
Camila did a short prayer before we made noise with our cutlery. I noticed Camila staring at me every second.
“Seriously, what the hell is wrong with her and those creepy glares of hers. ” I thought.. She kept taking a glance at me but that didn’t stop me from eating.
“Oh she was staring, to think maybe I believed her lies.. ” I thought and chuckled. I’m not going to believe such .

Few minutes later.
Camila words did a flash in my head, again and again. I exhaled sharply, it made Camila and Andrew look at me. My voice and stupid lies keep ringing in my head and I dropped my fork out if frustration.
I looked at Andrew and I shook my head against the thought of him doing what Camila woke me up for. I looked at him again, but this time around, our eyes came in contact. He cleared his throat and dropped his fork.
“How is your business and the companies going? ” He asked and shrugged but also nodded.
“Stressful, but it’s cool and smooth as always. ” I replied, taking my eyes back to the small portion of food in front of me.
“Have you tried to sort things out with Nova, I heard you two got into an issue. ” He uttered with his cool voice. I arched my brows and shut my eyes in frustration and anger.
“Screw you Camila! ” I curse in my head. I raise my head to look at her. She looked at me with a confused expression on her face.
“I chuckled at the attitude and acting she’s putting on. Is she trying to act cool after explaining everything to him? ” I thought and rolled my eyes.
“Seriously! What have I done… I don’t know why Landon is giving me those creepy glare and eye rolls.. they look creepy and horrible.. ” She uttered and sprang up on my feet.
“Seat down Don! ” Andrew yelled and scoffed and sat down.
“Must she say everything her ear hears. ” I mumbled to myself..
“Is she the one that told you about it? ” I asked and he shook his head.
“How did he get to know about it? ” I thought.
“She didn’t, and also she wasn’t there when you called Cali to pass her phone to Nova I was there.. I was taking her to the hospital for her antenatal check up. ”
“Oh! That’s true… I remembered and shut my eyes…” Now, it’s Camila’s turn to glare at me.
“I have a business party this evening, so I invited her over. I invited her to make things better between us. ” I explained.
“That’s cool. Don’t ignore her, introduce her to your business partners. Don’t make her sit alone while you are with a female worker or business partner. ” He uttered and I chuckled..
“Okay… ” I appreciated it with a smile on my lips.
“Just be cool and stop being a playboy. ” That was Camila’s voice. That’s her voice for Christ sake. She’s even rolling her eyes.
“How many times have I explained to you not to interfere in my business… Don’t put your fvcking mouth on matters that relate to me. ” I yelled and she shrank in fear.
“When will you get into college? ” Andrew asked Camila but his eyes were on me. He was trying to make me shut up.
“I guess it’s high time I go back to my house. Camila should go and stay with Nova or Zoey.. ” I thought and nodded at the thought.
“In Few months.. I don’t know how fast it will be for this year soon to be graduating students. ” She mumbled and took a bite on her chicken.
“Okay… I have a business to attend to.. I will be gone when my car gets washed. ” Andrew uttered, standing up.
“Are you going to Cali’s place? Camila asked and I rolled my eyes.
“No, I’m not going there..—”
“He said he’s attending a business not a girls home… You are just dirty minded Camila… Not when you woke me up from my peaceful sleep this morning with rubbish of him getting Cali pregnant— ”
“What?? ” Andrew exclaimed with a shocking expression on his face.
“Shit..” I read her lips as they moved.
“I guess he wasn’t expecting such lies from her. ” I thought and chuckled…
TBC.
