Chapter 20

CARLA
The next morning•••
I had a great night though no one's asking. And yes, Jay and I had sex last night again. We argue but that's one thing we always agree on. That's because we can't control what our body wants. I didn't find Jayden in the suite but I found my breakfast already on the table.
At least he acted like a gentleman today. I walked to the bathroom to have my bath. Then I came out dripping wet and sat on the dining chair. I had a taste of breakfast before going to wear my clothes.
Feels good to be here though. I'm being served breakfast and I'm sleeping on the most comfortable beds in the world.
I wore a white dress and packed my hair in a ponytail. I wore my big round earrings and did some good make up. I added a matching white set of short heels before walking out of the room. Well I'm going to tour the mall today. I want to shop for a few things.
I have no idea where Jayden is but I think he's probably at one of his boring business meetings. Sometimes I feel like this is a dumb trip. I don't think this should last a month, business and it's rules.
I do my own business my own way, and it's very convenient for me. I got to the mall and found a place to shop for new clothes and shoes. Not without getting stared at by perverts who won't stop looking at me.
"Hello beautiful." Someone said while I was trying on a new red heel.
I turned with a straight face.
"How may I help you sir?" I asked politely.
Yeah he's a middle aged man and he looks married. Not looks, he has a ring on. I don't do married men, I always say that.
"Don't call me sir dear. I'm not too old you know. You're so beautiful, I couldn't take my eyes off you so I came to say hi." He said in a flirty tone.
I shook my head, "I appreciate your complement but I seriously need you to stay the hell away from me. I'm not interested in whatever you have to say."
I sound rude right? But I warned him earlier didn't I? He refused to be polite.
"Easy princess. I know what girls like you want. I've got everything and anything you want in a man. All I want is to be your friend."
"Is your wife here with you?" I asked him.
He looked back then to me.
"And who says I'm married?"
I laughed actually. Does he think I'm stupid? That's written all over him.
"Your ring says so." He tries hiding the ring. "I am very sure you came here with your wife. It wouldn't be good if she caught you doing things like this. Besides I've got a boyfriend, I came here with him. He won't find it funny if he finds he flirting with me. Excuse me."
I left him there. He did not come after me any longer which made me feel relieved. I decided to try another store and come back when he's taken himself out.
•••••
I went back to the room after getting what I wanted. Jayden wasn't back yet, my pride won't let me call him. He'll come back when he's ready. I sat down on the couch and switched on the TV, since I'm bored.
The door opened, he walked in with a bag. He dropped on the bed without looking at me. Then he went into the bathroom. Strange.
He doesn't usually come without talking to me. Maybe the meeting's putting him in a bad mood.
I continued watching TV, he came out later wearing a towel around his waist. Showing off his perfect body and making me feel uneasy.
"We're attending an opening party tonight. That's the dress you're gonna wear to the party and every other accessories you need." He said.
I arched a brow in confusion, "A party? Why didn't you just let me get the dress myself? How am I supposed to know if it's my size or not? Do you even know my size!" I protested.
He smirked, "I know your size like the back of my hands. I've touched everything needed to touch, I know how you'll look in it." He whispered making me shiver.
"That doesn't count. Even married people make mistakes. You should have asked me first."
He sighed, putting his arms akimbo.
"Why don't you try the dress on? And see if I'm wrong. Then you can be free to say whatever you want." He suggested.
I reluctantly took the bag into the dressing room. I brought out the dress and marveled at the sight. Now I want this dress to fit me, I simply can't let it go. It's so dope.
It's a yellow floral dress designed with shiny crystals at the top and sunflowers at the middle and bottom. It also has lacy patterns, It's long enough but transparent from the knees.
I tried it on. He was right. He does know my size. I wonder where he got this dress from. The designer must be a top designer for he or she to make a dress as beautiful as this.
I feel too embarrassed to go out so I changed and carefully hung the dress. I checked the accessories too and they're all top notch matching ones. This must have cost him a fortune, these items are definitely not cheap items.
I walked out of the changing room. He was seated on the bed waiting for me to come out.
"So?" He asked.
I rolled my eyes, "You win. They fit, but I still insisting checking my size next time to be sure. I might add weight."
"I'll know if you add or lose weight. You're mine for now remember?"
"Stop feeling yourself. You're not that great."
He smirked and left for the changing room. He came back fully dressed, he went out again. This business of his is taking his time. It's kinda weird but I miss having him around and arguing with him.
Don't get why I keep feeling this way for him. I do not want to think it's what I think it is.
Evening came and he sent me a text to get ready. I took a bath and dressed up in the yellow dress, made my hair in a messy bun and tried to look my best. A knock came to my door a while later. I opened the door to see one of Jay's men waiting for me.
I took my phone and walked out of the suite. I followed the bodyguard who led the way for me. We finally got to the hall where the party is being held. I slowly walked I feeling awkward at the attention I'm getting.
Especially from these perverts that have their partners, my looks are not helping me this time around.
I joined the party looking around and searching for anyone I know with my eyes. This place is filled with elite businessmen and women, slow music is being played at the background. This is they typical rich people party. Now where the fuck is Jayden? I'll leave if I don't-
"I'm right here babe." He cut me off.
My mouth almost fell open. Thank goodnessss I controlled myself. He is looking so damn hot in this suit, why is he so cute?
"What is it? Say something." He said again.
Oh my I'm embarrassing myself.
"Um. I have nothing to say." I lied. Deep down I wanted to say you look hot.
"Well you look stunning." He gazed at me, his eyes has this different language. For the first time I'm not seeing lust on his face.
He took my hand, "Shall we?"
I nodded as we walked into the midst of the business people.
