Chapter 99
Gabby sat down at a daily bar drinking beer. This was a place she often come to drown her lonely heart.
She was glad when Carlos told her he was going on a vacation with Triffany, Carlos had asked her to join them but Gabby had refused the offer.
She knew best that this was the time Carlos ought to make up for the honeymoon trip Triffany didn't enjoy.
And she wouldn't want to go there and spoil their private moments, that was not her place to start with, Carlos now have feelings for his wife and she only wish Tommy would love her.
Why was she here?
It have been a long time since she came to a club, after meeting Tommy, playing with other men was no longer fun to her.
She looked around and she could see few men drinking, some with their girlfriend or someone they had just hooked up with.
If she was interested in stuff like this today, she would haven been sitting here flirting with one of her new catch.
Why she was in love with Tommy was one thing she can't explain. Gabby took a large gulp of her wine.
Just like her brother had told her, she have to look for a friend, but she laugh it off, she doesn't have time for gossips, to her that's what having a female friend is all about.
She had drank too much today and was dressed a bit tipsy. She went through her phone and saw Tommy's number. Out of all the men contacts she has on her phone, Tommy's number was the one she often look at.
He knew she loves him, he said it that day he was drunk, but even knowing that she loves him, he had not contacted her. Gabby exhaled and puts her phone down.
"I need to stop myself." She muttered softly. "I need to stop having an unrequited love." She sip her beer.
She felt someone close to her and she turn and it was a handsome man staring right at her face. "I'm not interested." She told him and looked away.
"You're pretty." The man said. "I am Jimmy Billy." He introduced himself.
Gabby lifts the corner of her lips. "Hello Jimmy or whatever you call yourself, I am not interested, I don’t need a hook up tonight." She told him and sip her drink.
Jimmy smile. "If you don’t need one today, perhaps you might need one tomorrow." He brought out his business card and put it on the table for her to see. "You can contact me whenever."
Gabby lifts the card up and glance through it. "CEO of Jay empire." Gabby lifts the corner of her lips as she saw the smile on Jimmy's face.
Gabby scoffed and toss the card to the floor. "Are you here to brag to me that you are a CEO?" Gabby shook her head. "Sorry you picked the wrong lady."
Jimmy seems cool with whenever she did, he was impressed with how she act and everything. "No, I think I picked the right lady."
Gabby was getting furious, one thing she hate was someone interrupting her when she want to be left alone. "Can you just leave, I get crazy when I am angry." She told Jimmy.
"I love crazy ladies." Jimmy smile softly. "Well, you will be seeing me a lot from now on." Jimmy told her.
"Why?" Gabby asked.
Jimmy smiled again and Gabby wonder why he was putting on the poker face. "Because, your brother has something I want, and I get whatever I want." He told her and Gabby was puzzled.
"What are you saying?" She asked softly, since she was a bit drunk already.
"Hey princess, you will be seeing me around like i told you." He winks her and tap her shoulder before leaving.
Gabby shook her head, he was like a game player, and he was not like those men that come here for hook up or so.
Her brother has something he wants? He was talking nonsense. And he gets whatever he wants?
Gabby shrugged, seriously he was talking gibberish. She took a large sip of her drink and looked at his business card that was still on the table, she picked it up and an idea got into her head.
Actually this will be fun. "Let’s play a game then." She look at the card and then at Tommy's number. "I also get whatever I want." She smile.
...
Jimmy Billy the young man who had just left the bar came outside and his driver opened the door of his Bugatti and he got into it with a smile on his face.
He sat down and the driver head into traffic. Jimmy sat brought out a picture of two ladies and a man. He smile and tick the first ladies picture.
"Gabby Zack." He smile look closely at the picture. "You're pretty, my first ace and my fifty point to win this game."
He looked out of the window and his eyes darkened as he brought out his phone and dial a number as he put the phone on his ear. "It just begin." His lips broaden with smile.
Triffany came out of the bathroom the next day, drying her hair with a towel, she looked at the balcony and could see Carlos still on phone.
He had been awoken this morning by his phone and had been on the line until now, she studied his expression that seem like there was something up, but she can't tell since she can't here the conversation.
Carlos saw her and said few more words before hanging up. Then he walked into the room. "Carlos is there any problem at work?" Triffany asked him.
Carlos put down his phone and came close to her. "No." He shook his head and flashed her a smile.
Triffany could tell that the smile didn't reach his eyes, but she doesn't want to drag the topic longer.
Carlos could see the worry on her face, he took the towel from her hands and help her dry her hair. "We came here for a vacation not for business, so the call doesn't matter." He explained further.
He wrap his hands around her and pull her close. "Lets go skydiving." He told her and Triffany looked at him.
"No, Carlos, am scared of that." She told him.
Carlos smile and made her look into his eyes. "I told you, I was going to bring you into my world and whereas I will be there with you." He peck her cheek.
"But..." Triffany wanted to protest.
"I bet you will love it." Carlos cuts her off. "Wear something comfortable, I will go take my bath and be out in a moment." He told her and took off his shirt, he picked his towel and head into the bathroom.
"Skydiving?" Triffany turned and stare at the mirror in a daze, to her she might faint before they take off. She hugged herself with shudder.
Soon the hit the road with Triffany scared, she turned to Carlos. "We can go for a long drive instead." She suggested.
Carlos smile, he was holding the steering wheel as he looked at the nervous Triffany. "Babe, am sure you're going to love it."
He held her hands and brought it to his lips as he kissed it. "Trust me." He flashed her a beautiful smile.
Triffany trust him but, she was damn too scared. "Okay." She said softly and pressed her lips together.
She had to talk to her subconscious that she can do it, whereas she had road on machines that goes high, and she had flew in a place.
But still, jumping down from an open plane was a different thing all together. She just hope she won't die, she bite down her lower lips and told her head to shut up from thinking negative thoughts.
She looked at Carlos who was so focus on driving, between the two of them, he was more calm and happy, which made her think this was a payback for making him ride on a bus.
She looked out of the window and close her eyes, she won’t die on this trip, no she won't, she has Carlos, she trust Carlos.
