Painful seduction

When she got out of the office, she made a call to Rhea and said almost immediately,

“Guess what? It actually worked” .

“Wow, so he actually fell for you, that’s so amazing Cindy” she rejoiced.

“I told you it was going to work ” she said proudly.

“Where are you?” Rhea asked over the phone.

” I just came out of the office and I want to book a ride to go home ” she explained.

“Alright, I will see you later, I will be home before you go to bed, I have some work to do”

” Don’t use work to cover up your sins Rhea, I know your with a guy, just please drive carefully and don’t overwork the car” she pleaded.

” You treat that car like your child, Cindy” she mocked.

Cindy laughed at her friend’s remark as she ended the call.

A car drove and stopped right in front of her and the car windows opened to reveal the face of a man which she recognized as Mr. Axl.

He beckoned on her to come forward and she moved closer to talk to him.

” Where are you off to?” He asked smiling lustfully at her.

” Home” she answered.

” You mind if I drop you?” He asked.

She thought about it as he waited for her response, if he was going to drop her that means he would know her apartment and she didn’t want any of that so she responded,

“No, I can manage by myself, I will just book a ride home”.

He got out of the car as he strolled to meet her,

” Okay, forget driving you home, let’s have dinner together” He suggested.

“But you have a wife…” She couldn’t finish her statement as the warm fingers of Axl stopped her from talking.

“Don’t talk about her, your more important” He said as he leaned forward and kissed her neck.

” Let’s go out for dinner ” he suggested as he opened the door for her to get in.

At first she didn’t want to because she was scared of being caught by the media but she shrugged the thought off.

She entered the car and he rode off .

Axl offered to start up a conversation but she was just not in the mood for any conversation so he maintained driving in silence but that didn’t stop him from stealing glances at her.

They got to the restaurant after about 15 minutes .

The restaurant was an expensive and a classic restaurant, it was quite empty except for a few numbered individuals.

He had already reserved a table for them and the waiter quickly took them to the table which was reserved for them.

The menu was handed over to Cindy and her eyes went through the food lists ranging from, Espresso, teas, lentil soup which was her favorite, brown rice, tabouli. All the food left her confused because she loved each of them.

” Is this all you have?” She asked the waiter.

“No, we have a variety of food, all you have to do is make your choice” the waiter replied.

” Okay, I will have Hummous and a salad , and then you can add vegetable curry” Cindy said handing the menu to Axl to make his choice.

“I will have the same meal she ordered” He replied with a grin.

Cindy smiled lightly as she thought of him falling in love with her.

“So tell me about yourself” He said with a lustful stare.

” My name is Alexia Bachman, born in California , I just moved into Los Angles recently” she lied.

” What about your family? Don’t you have any family members?” Ha asked as he watched her closely.

” No, my parents died when I was young, I was raised by an orphanage” she said, she felt relived she was actually saying her first truth to him.

” Am sorry about that, don’t you have siblings” he inquired.

” I don’t know about that , I heard my sister is still alive but I don’t know where she is” she responded.

“You could give me her name and I can find information about her”.

She was about giving him an answer when she thought about it.

Was she really interested in getting help from an enemy? No, she won’t accept whatever offer he gave her.

Her main reason was to pay him back for what he did to her and she was willing to sacrifice knowing her sister’s whereabouts plus she already trusts Damien and was sure he was going to his words.

” I don’t know her name and I don’t think I need your help” she shouted.

” Am just trying to help” he said quietly, he looked hurt.

” Am so sorry about that, you know I miss her so much and I get pissed off when I don’t even remember her name so that I can help her” she lied.

The main reason she shouted at him was because of the anger she felt for him but she quickly kept her composure because it wasn’t part of the deal.

Their meal came and they settled down to eat , it was really delicious and she wished she could come to this restaurant every evening to have dinner with Rhea.

From the corner of her eyes she noticed he stole glances at her and she was feeling really uncomfortable.

” Won’t the media see us here” she said distracting him from staring lustfully.

” Nope, I pay them wholesomely to stay off my track” he lied. The properties and wealth belonged to Cathy and she paid all the bills but he wasn’t going to spoil their wonderful moments together by saying his wife pays the bills.

She might just leave me, he thought.

” So you own the Chester’s Enterprise?” She asked .

” Yes, every single thing” he lied again.

He really had to work out plans to get the properties from Cathy , the faster the better.

” How about your wife, how do you think she will feel about us?” She asked more curious this time around.

“I don’t care about her feelings, it’s all her fault” he answered sadly.

It’s true, she thought.

What Rhea said about their marriage was right, they were just like two enemies getting marriage.

Maybe a contracted marriage, she muttered in disgust

” Why did you marry her?”

“My father arranged our marriage, I didn’t have an opinion in it” he explained.

” Sorry, about that ” she said as she rubbed his palm.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

She felt bad for him and gave him and assuring smile while they finished their food in silence.
