CHAPTER SEVENTY SEVEN

TWO MONTHS LATER

**BRIANNA**

Adrian really fulfilled his promise about paying for my mom's treatment. After we came back from our trip to Spain, Adrian got in contact with his personal doctor and my mom was admitted in their hospital. She has been in the hospital for a month and few weeks now and finally got home today.

"It's good to have you home, mom." I said as I hugged her again. She was looking more healthy and wasn't as skinny as she was before.

"It's good to be home." She chuckled as she hugged me back. I missed inhaling her flowery scent.

"Thanks for everything, Adrian. I couldn't imagine this happening without your help." I said to Adrian who was sitting on the couch and he smiled at me briefly.

"It's fine, no need for you to thank me." He uttered.

"Okay! What do y'all want for lunch? Homemade food or should we order?" I asked enthusiastically.

"We should definitely order." Marianna chipped in excitedly.

"Pizza and soda, anyone?" I asked.

"Yes!" Everybo

    Chapter One •BRIANNA• I was at my workplace, a restaurant, where I was working an afternoon shift. I was in the kitchen, watching my colleague and my best friend, Cherry, run around while trying to put something together for the customers to eat. “Are you sure you don’t need my help, Cherry?” I asked her for the umpteenth time. “Yes, Bri, I’m sure. I don’t want the manager to yell at you if she sees you assisting me.” She replied and returned to cooking while I sat, quietly watching her do her thing. “Brianna! Why are you sitting around instead of taking customers’ orders?!” I heard the manager’s loud voice, and I shivered in fear. I was in trouble. “Oh shit! This will not be good.” I thought as I braced myself for what she would say. The manager hates it when we, the employees, sit around when there are no customers in the restaurant. She prefers it if we keep ourselves busy by doing some productive things. But we need rest too, don’t we? She gets to sit in her air-conditioned

    Chapter Two •ADRIAN• I was in my office, working on my laptop, when my assistant came in with a cup of coffee. I had asked her to get it over twenty minutes ago. I glared at her as she walked toward my desk and noticed her shivering like a cat that had just gotten out of water. “What the hell took you so long?” I asked her in anger. “The queue at the café was very long, so I had to wait in line until it got to my turn,” she said with a nervous smile. “Couldn’t you tell whoever the fuck was in charge that I am the one who wants to drink the coffee?” I asked again. “I’m so sorry, Sir.” She apologised, already close to tears. She must be very timid because I haven’t said or done anything. “Give the damn coffee to me,” I demanded and held out my hand, and she gave it to me with shaky hands. I brought the plastic cup to my lips and took a sip, but immediately spat it out. The coffee was already cold and wasn’t even the type I told her to get for me. I flung the cup of coffee

    Chapter Three •BRIANNA• I sat for about fifteen minutes before I was finally called upon. I got up, straightened my clothes, and walked into the office. I was dumbfounded by what I saw when I stepped into the room. The man who fired me yesterday sat in a swivel chair behind a mahogany desk. He sat majestically and pressed his phone like he didn’t have a care in the world. He was so engrossed in whatever he was doing on his phone that he didn’t notice that someone had come in. He finally looked up after some minutes, and my breath somehow got caught in my throat. I forgot how to breathe for a moment and stared at him like a fool. I couldn’t stop my eyes from wandering over his physique. He had dirty blonde hair, bushy eyebrows, and hazel eyes with grey flecks. He had a pointed nose, small pink lips that looked kissable, and a neat beard. I didn’t have the time to check him out yesterday because of his display of assholery. “Are you done checking me out?” he asked, a smug look

    Chapter Four •ADRIAN• I went back to my office immediately after the crazy lady left. Shortly after I settled down, Manuel came strolling into my office like he owned the place. “Hey, buddy.” He hollered. “Shouldn’t you be back at your office?” I asked him, but I should have known better than to ask. He was the type that didn’t enjoy staying in one place for a long time, even if the said place was his company. Manuel was the CEO of one of the best fashion industries in the country. His company manufactured all kinds of wear for kids, women, and men. It had branches all over the country and the world. “Is that the way you greet your best buddy?” He asked me and then continued before I had a chance to reply. “Besides, I don’t have to stay at work because I own the place, and I also have people working for me. I’m not like a certain somebody who buries his body, mind, and soul in work from morning till night.” He said, mumbling the last sentence under his breath, but I heard

    Chapter Five •BRIANNA• Evening came around quicker than expected, and Cherry was at my house in no time. She arrived with a big shopping bag, and I gasped upon seeing her. “That is a big bag you’ve got there,” I commented as she walked deeper into the bedroom. I thought you said you’d buy me two dresses and shoes, but there seems to be more than that.” “Yes, that’s what I said. But I changed my mind when I got to the mall,” Cherry replied with a relaxed tone, and I smiled. “Why would you do that? Spending all your money on me," I muttered. I didn’t spend all my money; even if I had, it would have been for a good cause. "Also, I needed to get more than two dresses. I want you to dress like a sexy professional. People should have to look at you twice before they can look away," she replied. “You’re the best friend a girl like me can ever ask for. Have I told you that you’re my sister from another mother?” I cried out in appreciation. "You don't have to tell me. You are my sister

    CHAPTER SIX 😍BRIANNA😍 The rest of my shift at the club passed by in a blur with my mind replaying my conversation with Mr Cole over and over again. The customers soon started exiting the club and in few minutes the club was already empty with only the employees tidying the place up. By 11:45pm Cherry and I were out of the club and walking towards the direction of my house when she brought up the conversation between me and Mr Cole which I didn't want to talk about. "What's up with you and the boss?" She asked as we walked. "Nothing,why do you ask?" I questioned. "Well I couldn't help but notice that your mood turned sour after whatever conversation the both of you had." She replied "The truth is that he has been bothering me from the time

    Chapter Seven•BRIANNA•As soon as I read the brief message, I let out a sigh. I thought I could pull it off by coming to work late without him knowing, but it turned out I couldn’t. Now, I have to face his wrath. I walked out of my office, breathing nervously, and stopped in front of his office. I stood at the door for some seconds, trying to regulate my breathing, and I was able to calm down. I knocked on the door, and I heard his deep voice tell me to come in. I took deep breaths in and out to calm my nerves before opening the door and stepping into the office.As soon as I stepped into the office, I was taken aback, and my mouth fell open. The office was simply beautiful and unique. Mr. Adrian was sitting on a black leather-turning chair, and in front of it was a large brown modern mahogany desk with two other swivel chairs in front of it. I looked around the office again, and I saw two bookshelves filled with books on both sides of Mr. Adrian’s swivel chair. The office was painte

    CHAPTER EIGHT **BRIANNA** The elevator got to the last floor in some minutes. I exited and strode towards Mr Adrian's office and knocked on the door. I heard his deep voice tell me to come in before I opened the door and stepped into the office. I walked to his desk and dropped the cup of Latte on it. He raised his head from what he was doing and lifted his eyebrow in a questioning manner before his eyes drifted to the cup of hot steaming Latte. He scrunched his nose up in disgust before asking. "What the hell is this?" He asked in an irritated manner. "Your coffee as you requested sir." I replied with a smile on my face. "I don't like Latte. You just went ahead to order anything you like without asking for what I liked like a know-it-all." He stated and the smile on my face faltered. "Sorry

    CHAPTER SEVENTY SIX**BRIANNA**I was woken up by the loud sound of the blender coming from downstairs. It sounded like a machine was in the house or something. I looked around me and noticed that I was laying on the blood and was covered by the duvet. I raised the duvet and saw that I was naked underneath it. It was at that moment, I remembered everything that happened last night. My cheeks flamed hot when I remembered every single details of what happened. How will I face Adrian after what happened last night?A frustrated groan left my mouth.After some minutes, I heard footsteps coming towards my room so I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. I heard him walk into the room and I also heard the clatter of something being dropped on the bedside table. I peeled my eyes open slightly to see what he was doing and I saw him open the curtains, letting the sunlight inside and the room became brighter."I know you're awake." I heard him say, with his back facing me and I flinched slightl

    CHAPTER SEVENTY FIVEEVENING; AROUND 7 P.M.**BRIANNA**We were just getting home after a long day of visiting Museo Nacional del Prado. I must admit, that was the best museum I have ever been to in my life. Not like I have been to any museum, but I have a feeling that that would be the best one ever.We saw a lot of paintings by popular artists. Some of them were The Garden of Early Delights, a triptych oil painting by Hieronymus Bosch; we also saw Las Meninas, a painting by Diego Velazquez and we saw the painting "Saturn Devouring His Son" by Francisco Goya. Saturn Devouring His Son was the one that captivated me the most and I didn't even know the reason why.Back to the present time, Adrian and I just stepped into the house with me on his back. He gave me a piggyback ride on our way home because of how tired I was. Now, he was helping me take off my sneakers."You're so sweet." I murmured while playing with his hair as he his sitting on the floor in front of me."I do my best." H

    CHAPTER SEVENTY FOUR**BRIANNA**I peeled my eyes open when I suddenly felt the bright rays of sunshine on my face. The first thing my eyes came in contact with was Adrian who had a small smile on his face."Good morning, Sunshine!" He greeted cheerily."Good morning." I replied out, my voice sounding like a frog's that I almost couldn't recognize it. "What time is it?" I asked, attempting to get into a sitting position but I quickly decided against it when a strong wave of headache hit me.I groaned loudly."You probably shouldn't do that. You're hungover." Adrian said, coming to sit beside me with a bottle of water and aspirin in hand."Ugh! How much did I drink last night?" I asked, moaning in pain."Around five shot glasses, I guess you're a lightweight because I wasn't even affected by the drink." He said with a teasing smile."Geez! How did I drink that much?" I exclaimed and took the bottle of water and aspirin from him when he offered them to me.I took the aspirin and gulped

Robotics (one of the companies under Adrian's name) and now, Adrian and I are going out to celebrate."Adrian, where exactly are we going?" I asked him for the umpteenth time. This is the question I have been asking him ever since we got into the car and he began driving to God knows where.He sighed exasperatedly at my question."You won't stop asking me this question till I answer you, right?" He grumbled."Nope!" I said, popping the 'p'."Fine, we're going to a club to celebrate our win." He finally answered."Wow, really?" I asked, my eyes lighting up."Yeah, we're going to drink and dance. But nobody is getting drunk, at least not me because I have to drive." He uttered."That's a cool idea." I clapped enthusiastically.Minutes later, Adrian pulled over in front of a building with "The Dinero Lounge" written in neon light. We a

    CHAPTER SEVENTY TWO**BRIANNA**"Brianna... Wake up." I felt someone tap me but I snuggled closer to the soft pillow."Five more minutes mom..." I moaned and I heard a deep chuckle that didn't sound like my mother."Wake up, we're running late." I heard again ad the person shook me and I slowly peeled my eyes open. It took a second for me to remember that I wasn't at home and the person that was waking me was not my mom, but Adrian. I also remembered that I was no longer in California but in Madrid, Spain."Good morning, sunshine!" He smiled at me brightly."Good morning!" I said and tried to smile at him, but it came out more like a grimace."Ooh, you're not a morning person." He laughed."I hate mornings." I grumbled."Unfortunately, we have to go. It's almost 11 and the meeting with the investors is by 12. And I know it takes a while for y'all ladies to get dressed." He uttered and I quickly got out of bed."Thanks for waking me up. Let me go take my bath." I said and went towards

    CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE**BRIANNA**"We will be landing in a minute!" The booming voice of the pilot woke me up from my nap. I raised my head from Adrian's shoulder and rubbed my eyes so that I could see clearly. Adrian was also asleep so I tapped him and he woke up."The pilot said that the plane will be landing soon." I muttered to him and he nodded."Flight attendants, prepare for landing please. Passengers, sit tight and buckle your seatbelts, we'll be landing now." The pilot announced once more.A few seconds later, I felt the pressure of the jet moving downwards and I gripped the armrest tightly, just like I did when we were about to take off. Turns out, I was still scared of flying.“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to A. C. Private Airport. Local time is 3:26 a.m. and the temperature is warm at 22°C.For your safety and comfort, please remain seated with your seat belt fastened until the Captain turns off the Fasten Seat Belt sign.

    CHAPTER SEVENTY**BRIANNA**I woke up on a bed a few hours later. I looked out the window to see that we were still flying. The flight from California to Spain takes over eleven hours so it's understandable. Everywhere was dark and my stomach growled, reminding me that the last time I ate was in the morning.I strode to the main area of the jet to find Adrian in his laptop. He must be working. Me eyes raked over his body, stopping at the part where his shirt was unbuttoned and I could see his bare chest with curly hair around it.He must have seen me come in or noticed that I was seriously checking him out because he raised his head and our eyes locked. A playful smirk formed on his face."Checking me out, huh?" He asked playfully. "Don't worry, I'm all yours and I ain't going nowhere."He said that with a wink and my face went hot."I wasn't checking you out." I rolled my eyes."Hoe could one look so hot?" I muttered to myself and went to sit beside him."Huh huh, in sure you weren't

    CHAPTER SIXTY NINE**BRIANNA**I got another shock when I set my eyes on the jet. The jet was coated in gold! Gold I tell you! I turned to face Adrian in surprise."Is that real gold?" I asked him dumbly and he laughed."Yes, it's real gold. You don't expect to see me having anything to do with fake gold do you?" He chuckled."Wow, you're really more richer than I thought." I breathed in surprise."Don't think too much about it. Let's go." He said as he intertwined his hand with mine and led me up the steps of the jet.I was more amazed when we were inside the jet. From where I was standing, I could see that it had eights seats, each the size of a single seater couch. And they even have tables in front of them. I feel like a villager right now."Close your mouth before a fly finds it way inside. Your jaw is practically on the floor right now." Adrian joked and I snapped my mouth close in embarrassment."Whatever." I grumbled and sauntered over to one of the seats. I planted my butt o
