{His Business Party}
Wester Mansion/Evening.
Author POV
After the little chit chat the siblings had that very morning. Everyone departs to their various rooms. One hour before the main event at his company, Landon got himself dressed up and got out of his room. He’s confident Camila will dress up for his business party but getting to the living room, she’s nowhere to be found.
“I guess she’s not coming this time around. ” He thought and went out of the living room. Got inside his car and took in several breaths.
Meanwhile, Camila had dressed up in a revealing blue gown with a touch of light makeup on her face. She went to his door and knocked, but she got no response. She opened the door and she realized he’s gone already.
“Did he really leave me at home? ” She stuttered and rushed to the stairs and then to the door.
An exhale of relief escaped her lips when she saw him standing beside the passenger seat at the front. She laughed and got down.
“Thought you left already. ” She uttered in between her laughter but he shook his head.
“No, I know you won’t want to miss the chance. Waited for you in the living room since you are always the first to dress up before any party. But you weren’t there. So I thought you won’t be coming along. ” He explained and she chuckled.
“I was dressing up, moreso, I slept off… ” She uttered and he opened the car door for her to get in, which she did.
They drove out of the compound with laughter… Camila noticed the direction he took wasn’t to his company.

“That’s cool… ” I mumbled and faced the window with a silly smile on my lips.

“Why don’t you ask Nova out on a date? ” I asked him the question that’s been on my mind for the past few weeks.
“I don’t think she will love that. I just want to take things step by step. ” He replied and I nodded.
“But remember this, when you decided to date Nova… It will be better if you leave your flirting and playboy attitude… Nova gets jealous easily. ” I explained and he smiled.
“Do I look like a playboy? ” He asked. Words escape my lips and I chuckle.
“Is he kidding me at this moment? ” I thought and looked at him.
“Of course, your face, everything. Your smile and—”
“Do you think Nova fell in love with me because of my looks? ” He asked and I restrained myself from saying anything about it.
“She loves your pink lips and abs.. She’s in love with you. Don’t play with her if you aren’t interested Don… ” I uttered, with a serious expression on my face but his face was totally out of it…. He’s….
