LUST LOVE: Slave To The Billionaire CEO

Climbing down the stairs, Smiles saw them together as he kept on stroking her hair while she closed her eyes feeling the sweet sensation.

She bites on her lips looking away from them, and makes her way to the kitchen where she quickly pours out her drinks and leaves without looking back.

She spent the rest of the day inside, keeping herself busy with the paperwork.

She didn’t know when she slept off and only woke up to a new day. It was the day Derrick was throwing a welcoming party for his sister and she had to be there…she must or else she wouldn’t have another opportunity to meet her and Derrick wouldn’t want to give her another chance.

This got her wondering if Keane would attend ’cause, from the look of things, the two friends don’t seem to get along. It’s none of her business anyway.

Going down for breakfast, Keane was seated on the dining his usual seat quietly eating.

“Good morning, master!” She greets taking her seat by the side.

He didn’t bother answering her and says

“We’re going somewhere today by six, make sure you get ready in time…the butler will take care of your needs’ ‘ she nods a yes and quietly starts serving some food onto her plates. Unlike other days, today was different, somehow…it felt strange and weird, she felt anxious about something she couldn’t tell.

Their meal went smoothly, in silence.

She couldn’t help but wonder what the party would be like…not in terms of the decorations or guesses, of course, she knew it was no party for someone like her but what she was curious about was the girl in question.

It’s quite weird why Derrick wanted to introduce her only at the welcoming party with her.

Her gaze travels to Keane who is quietly eating his food.

She wonders if he’s seen Derrick’s sister or if she’s the only one missing out.

“Anything you would like to say?” He asked, noticing her gaze on him.

She quickly denies it, embarrassed she was caught staring. Well, she wasn’t staring basically…she was just lost in her world of weird thoughts and questions.

The day went by with her preparing. The Butler gave her the dress she will put on and unlike the last one, this was different.

It was a shiny high-slit party wear with ooff-shoulderglitters alongside a pair of silver ankle strap heels that were of the same color as the purse.

Without rushing, she gets herself ready. She’s got time up her sleeve and hence, she will use it to her advantage by taking her time to get herself ready.

The end result was worth it, with just a touch of light blush on her cheeks mascara on, and her well-shaped brows she was done for it.

Her cherry-brown hair was let loose, falling to her back making it look as shiny and curly as ever.

With one last glance at herself, she was good to go, she turned and left.

Keane was also dressed in a black suit with a white long-sleeve shirt inside. His hair was styled all behind forming waves on it making him look even more breathy than ever.

He pulls out a diamond necklace from its box and wears it on her. It fits her so beautifully as if it was made for her.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Her cheeks reddened, shy and happy he got her something.

“Common now,” he said, bringing forth his arm for her to hold, which she did.

It’s the second time they are going for a party and she can’t be any less happier knowing she will get to spend some time with him outside the mansion.

It was the only place he acknowledged her as his girl and she was happy knowing she would experience it again, for the second time.

Their car stops outside a very tall gray mansion, almost the same as the one Keane’s grandma and grandpa live in, though a little bit smaller again. But the building was super big, making her stretch out her neck to see the top.

With his help, they walked into the building and were directed to their seats. She was to sit in a classic and VIP seat because she was with Keane. If it was any ordinary time, she wouldn’t have been able to get the least expensive seat…what a life.. she thought staring at the beautiful decorations.

“She’s indeed a lucky girl”, she said imagining how happy the girl would be standing before the crowd claiming her title as the young Ms. of the Wright family.

The guests kept on coming in their numbers, taking on their various seats, and of course, the Warren family was there except Lisa.

Maybe she’s celebrating with her friends, just maybe.

A brown-haired man walks to their table. She frowns at the sight of him, he looks so familiar like he’s seen him somewhere but just can’t pinpoint.

She watches him shake hands with Keane and they chat for a while before he turns to her, their gaze meets, and he smiles at her.

Those sets of black eyes were unlike the ones she’d seen before and it only brought her a feeling that she just couldn’t brush it off no matter how much she tried to.

“Smiles!” He calls out her name to her greatest surprise. Sure they have met and she just couldn’t remember.

“Hi, Mr…” she trails, not knowing what to call him.

“Wright, but Emile is fine with me…though I will so much prefer you calling me Dad!” He said, smiling at her sheepishly.

She laughs at his jokes though it wasn’t.

“I would love to” she returns the smile.

“Have we met before, Dad?” She asked tired of trying to figure it out by herself.

“Yes…at the Austin’s party…hosted by grandpa Jimmy” he explains and she makes an ‘oh’ sound, remembering now. It was Grandpa Jimmy who introduced her to them, just she didn’t take note of the men around.

Staring at the girl before her, Wright didn’t need anyone to tell him who she was. He’d seen her before but never in his second life did he think she was his child though her resemblance to Fiona was striking.

His heart aches knowing he is the cause of her painful childhood.

He never stops staring at her and this gets Smiles wondering if everything is ok…

“Mr…Dad…are you ok?” she asked, drawing his attention back to the present. There was a sad look on his face as he stared at her. How he wished he could tell her everything right now and beg for her forgiveness but he couldn’t, not like he couldn’t but he just didn’t want to ruin his son’s heart work in preparing for this day…just a few more hours, the truth about her true identity will be out, only then, will he be relieved.
