His Purchased Wife

Chapter 21.



Chapter 21.

"Hello, Vancouver city…" Susan sang while stepping down the stairs. Emily and I are behind Susan.

The city greeted us with good weather and a lot of sunshine.

"I have planned the whole stay here. Hiking, boating, shopping…" Emily started but was immediately

interrupted by our workaholic Susan.

"Nope! We are here for work, not holidays, girl."

Emily curled her lips to one side. "Will you stop telling me what to do and what not! God Susan, you

behave like a mother hen." She said, throwing her hands in the air, clearly showing her irritation

towards Susan.

I glanced at Emily and Susan, sighed and walked slowly without any of them noticing me. Our

Limousine was waiting for us, upon seeing me the driver opened the door for me. I passed him a smile

but before settling inside I looked at my friends who were fighting like Tom and Jerry. I chuckled

imagining Susan as Tom and Emily as Jerry.

Ah! My imagination sometimes made me imagine the weirdest things. "Hey Girls, if your world war

three has finished, join me or I would be leaving without you both." I squealed at both of them.

They both gave me a pointed look but stopped their bickering. Walked towards the limousine and

settled down inside it calmly. The driver started the car and the journey started. I looked out the

window, the beautiful scenery of the city was passing through my eyes. A small smile came to my lips

though I travel a lot but Vancouver was always the city I felt connected with and why not! My mom was This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

basically from here. Even though Dad was settled in Boston, USA and mom was happy there but she

never forgot her city. The city of Vancouver.

The beautiful maple trees around here turned red in this season which increased the beauty of this city

ten fold. It looked as if a red haired angel had casted a spell here. The sunlight brightens the red leaves

making it look like gold. The joy of passing through this beautiful scenery could make anyone fall in

love with the place.

Smiling, I touched the pendant on my neck. Whenever I feel nervous I wear it, it makes me feel closer

to my mom.

I wish you would have been here mom. I just wish you would have been with me today…

Alas! The emptiness I felt without my mom was like an empty box. My parcel of happiness was never

fully filled, yes, I have dad and now, Gabe but still the place of mom left the emptiness in my life which

could never be filled by anyone. I brushed the tear that gathered in the corner of my eye with my little

finger.

Clutching the pendant tightly in my fist I made a promise to my mother that I would make her proud

today.

I promise to try with everything inside me for this show to win. Because it was not about my name only

but my grandfather's name as well, he used to be one of the most famous jewellery designers of his

time. I traced the design on my pendant which was designed by my grandfather.

"I will make you proud grandpa." I whispered and once again looked outside the window ignoring my

two hot-headed friends who were busy ripping each other's hair out of their skulls. Finally, our journey

came to an end.

The driver opened the door for us as we descended the car. Emily being Emily put on her goggles like

a pro. "Girls, let's show everyone that future winners of this show have arrived here…"

I smiled and mirrored her gesture of putting my own goggles on, Susan following my gesticulations.

When we walked inside and told the receptionist that we were here for the jewellery show Contest they

informed the manager about it. After some time two people arrived. One man named Joshua and a

woman named Katie. Both wearing formal dress, a blue suit with white shirt.

Joshua was a well built six feet tall man. He didn't look like someone who worked a nine to five job but

more like a bodybuilder or a wrestler while Katie was a beautiful brunette with black hair and hazel

eyes. She looked like a perfect model out of some fashion magazine and I felt envious seeing her

perfect body. The size zero figure made me hide my big hips with my Chanel handbag. I looked at them

when the woman started speaking.

"Good Evening miss…" She checked the Ipad, "Aurora Kings and Susan Kate, right?"

I smiled. "Yes," The girl offered her hand to me. I accepted and we shook our hands then she offered it

to Susan and Emily likewise.

I offered my hand to Joshua, he glanced at it and then at my face. He didn't offer his hand and it felt

really deplorable when my hand was still hung in the air.

"It's nice meeting you Mr Joshua," I mumbled to fill in the gap in communication and the gap was from

his side not mine. He gave me a curt nod but still didn't accept the offered hand. Clearing my throat I

lowered it.

Katie smiled. "Please don't be offended. Mr Joshua has germophobia, he never shakes hands with

anyone."

"Oh!" I muttered while Susan and Emily nodded.

"You are assigned to the presidential suite. Our contest will start tomorrow, all other contestants have

arrived and are taking rest In their particular rooms. Please enjoy the services of the hotel but be ready

till eight in the morning with your designs in the auditorium. There you will be introduced to the judges."

We all nodded at the information. "Best of luck for the show…" She said flashing her perfectly white

teeth as she handed me the electronic key.

"Your luggage has already been delivered to your suite."

"Thank you.." Susan said as they walked away.

I widened my eyes in excitement. "We are going to rock this show…" I sang, clapping my hands softly

and arching my brows.

Emily blew me a kiss. "We're gonna do that, but now let's go to our suite."

We walked to the elevator. "What figure she has!" I remarked as we entered the elevator.

"Who?" Susan asked, arching brow as she raised her head from her mobile.

"Katie, she has the figure of a perfect model. I was envious of her body. Wish I could be slim like her."

"This again…" Emily commented.

"Girl, you have a perfect body. Look at yourself, you are stuffed in the right places. A man would die to

be with you. Just look at those sexy curves…" she touched my butt area, nodding at the mirror for me

to look at.

"But Gabe asked me to do a little bit of dieting…"

"Aurora Kings! If you took that man's name in front of me one more time I promise I will go back to

Dallas and kick him in the shins!" Susan barked.

"Susan please. Don't say that again, he is right because I feel the same way about my body." I tried to

reason with her but she just shook her head.

"I pray to god that you break up with him." Susan muttered and that was not acceptable to me. She

was a dear friend. I love her but that doesn't give her the right to speak anything about my relationship

with Gabe.
