Chapter 14 UNEXPECTED HAPPENED
1412words
My eyes popped wide open and my jaw drops as I look at him with shock and surprise all over my face.
The car drives away and he shifts in his seat making a fair distance between us, I shrug embarrassedly as I sit back, immediately getting sober I pull my knee back and press my legs together in nervousness. Andrew didn't look at me once and that disappoints me.
"Hi…" I greet him first and he nods his head.
What the hell? Why is he so cold? He is sitting in the car as like someone has forced him to sit or glued him to the seat. Dude, I am beside you at least look at me.
I sit annoyingly and then turn to look in the window, my reflection comes into my view and I frown. Shit… how pathetic I am looking, is this the way I have planned to meet Andrew for the first time.
I hurriedly smooth my hair acting like I am doing it casually not intentionally, Thankfully my shades are hiding my half face.
I sit straight and notice Andrew watching me from the corner of his eyes, my heartbeat quickens. He is looking at me… Finally.
"Aren't these shorts very short, Miss Tessa Will?" He opens his mouth and my stomach flutters the way he says my whole name.
F**k, Tessa, control your emotions.
I bite my lips, nervously, and reply in a low hoarse voice, "I didn't know you are going to come."
There is a silent pause between us for a moment as I look down at his shiny leather shoes, his foot is too big as compared to mine, I notice.
"I don't believe it." His words ring over my head breaking my focus from his foot.
I look up at him, a little offended by his words, what does he mean He doesn't believe me, I want to scold him at this time but his indifferent look makes me swallow back my words.
"If Ann asks about me, tell her I met you already." He says and I nod my head unknowingly, what is wrong with me, I am not his puppet, Come on Tessa, ask him what his words mean, ask him where he was last time, at least ask him if he really wants this marriage?
Say something. I was battling in my mind and suddenly his phone rings making me jump all of the sudden.
RING... RING... RING...
He picks up his phone while giving me an amused look. I just look down embarrassedly, what is wrong with me.
I look at him from the corner of my eyes, as he talks on the phone. His hair color is black, its neatly comb and short, not much short. He has a sharp nose, his eyes I am not able to identify the color of his eyes maybe they are deep black.
His brows are full and he has shaved looking smooth and clean, his lips look fairly nice not thin nor too big. God has made him quite handsome. His hands look firm under the suit but he doesn't look muscular at all. His body is huge but not like the bodybuilder people or I would say like Aiden's muscular body.
F**k, stop thinking about that MF when you are with Andrew, Tess. I curse myself in my mind and as Andrew could sense my cursing he looks straight into my eyes, thankfully I am wearing the shades, I shrug under his dark gaze and he then hands me the phone, "Ann wants to talk."
He says and with a trembling hand, I take the phone, "H… Hello…" My voice is still hoarse.
"Tessa, Dear I had been busy with wedding preparation and Andrew is very sorry because of the last time, today he will spend the whole day with you. I have booked a couple spas for you both." Here comes the sweet voice of Miss Swan and I fall into complete silence, The lady who didn't even look at me properly the very first time we met is now showering me with love as though I am someone very precious to her.
"Thank you…" This is all I could say to her.
"Ok, dear then I'll see you at the wedding." Miss Swan says with an extreme sweetness that I am not able to digest at the moment. "Ok," I say, nodding my head subconsciously in a daze, and then hand back Andrew his phone.
"Tomorrow, If Ann asks anything. Tell her only good things." Andrew says to me in the same cold tone and I shrug beside him.
The car stops and Ron opens the door for me, I turn to look at the calm figure of Andrew and then ask curiously, "Aren't you coming?"
"Me?" Andrew raises his brows, I can see the displeasure on his face.
"Miss Swan says you will spend the day with me," I tell him in a whisper, I don't know why but I am feeling a bit intimidated by his cold personality. I look down, nervous, fiddling with my fingers, waiting for his response.
I hear him breathing loudly and I could feel his burning gaze on me, is he angry?
"I have lots of work to do," He says and I frown, work, work, work, isn't marriage more important than work?
"But Miss…." I try to protest politely but then something unexpected happens.
Andrew leans towards me and I shrink immediately, my heart thumping loudly what is he doing. He towers me with his body and then keeping his one hand on the seat, he breathed on my face, "We have many days to spend together, let me finish today's work without Ann knowing anything, hmm?"
He is too close to me, I blink multiple times thanks to the shades that are saving me from a huge shock of looking into his eyes straight. His voice has changed from cold to soft. He is looking at me with soft eyes and waiting for my response.
"Will you do this favor to me, Tessy?" He asks after not getting my reply as he hold my chin and pull his face closer to me.
Oh no… His closeness is giving me goosebumps and I am dumbfounded but still, I am able to nod my head, "Good girl." He pats my cheek as he is patting his pet and for a moment I think he is going to kiss me but Nah, he pulls away immediately.
That same cold and indifferent attitude comes back as he sits back in his place and I lay on the seat, disoriented and with a flush face. I could still feel his warmth on my face as I sit in a daze beside him.
"You are getting late." He reminds me, indirectly asking me to get off the car.
I come back to my senses and then move my limbs that had turned numb from his overwhelming actions. I get off the car and then bending down, I bid him bye, "Bye, then."
He nods his head but didn't look at me as usual and then turning I walk inside the huge salon.
I give my name to the receptionist, and she takes me inside with a warm greeting smile on her face.
I am immediately led to a room, where they wrap a large towel on me after I am done taking off my clothes, They ask me to lay on the single bed and then two-woman starts massaging my hands while two work on my feet and then a lady starts washing my hair after putting something cold and refreshing on my face.
I lay down feeling relaxed, the things that happened today are quite overwhelming and unexpected.
Andrew's appearance today is something I never expect, his cold behavior distresses me while his sister, Miss Swan over sweet behavior depress me more.
What are these brother and sister doing?
One is so sweet like honeycomb while the other is like a honeybee just minding his business cold and indifferently and if anyone dares to mess with him then he would sting them badly.
These rich people and their weird change of behavior make me speechless. Soon I am also going to become a part of these rich people's family that has multiple weird qualities, thinking of this a loud deep sigh escapes from my mouth.
