A vacation with the billionaire's son Chapter 34
Hadley and Serena washed their sleepy faces and took their pillows to his apartment. He shook his head immediately when he saw them and he ushered them to his kitchen to grab the drink he had made.They waved at the guys there and a girl who was too engrossed in her phone to look at anybody."What did you put in here?" Hadley smelt the drink but she couldn't point out what it was. "I'd better not drop dead with your crazy recipe," she took a sip and let out a satisfied sigh.Serena saw her expression and decided to take a sip from her own drink. "Hmm, this is so good," she relished the sharp sweet taste of the margarita.Arthur playfully placed his hand on his chest and bowed before them. "Let me introduce you to my friends… where's Frank?" He checked around the room.Hadley spat into her cup bag as Frank came out of the bathroom. She wanted to act like nothing had just happened, but Arthur had noticed her reaction."Is everything okay?" He whispered."Yeahh," she smiled and dragged S

Serena watched her phone ring for the third time that afternoon. She had followed Hadley to Creamhood, so she could have a virtual interview early in the morning before the day got busy.Now, she was just sitting at a corner of the confectionary section which served as a coffee table. The space was airy and the sun rays penetrated through the blinds. She could feel its warmth on her skin and she desired to be at the beach, tanning her skin and watching the ocean waves crash while sipping coconut juice. It reminded her of her summer vacation.Jaxon had called her phone for the third time that day but she refused to answer. She didn't have time for his games.A guy in black shirt walked up to the counter. Serena could see him from where she sat despite the tall shelves. She had not spoken to Hadley about Frank since Arthur's party. She wondered what the outcome had been. She would probably ask Hadley when she came around.She smelt the croissant before it made its way to the table whe

Serena ran to hug her when she saw her coming down the road. They stood there in each other's arms for about a minute before letting go.Her aunt didn't look like the person she had known since her teenage years. She was less dressed up. She didn't wear any makeup. Her coats were just normal coats unlike the very stylish ones she'd wear each time.Serena could feel the tears welling up in her eyes. Nothing was said, but a lot was read in the silence. They were both helpless from the tragedy that had befallen their family. "How are you?" Mabel's voice was shaky. They were in a bookstore that had a small coffee shop attached to it. There was nothing Aunt Mabel enjoyed more than the smell of books and coffee mincing wafting through a cool breezy day.It didn't feel like it today. Her face had gotten thinner within a short while. Her hands lacked the usual extra sweet moisture they'd normally have. Serena held her hand firmly from across the table.Both of them hadn't even touched their

The ride from the coffee shop to the station was a long one. The authority had requested that Jeff was moved to the bigger station which was at the borders of St. Lucas.Serena sat down on a seat in the reception while Mabel talked to the police officer at the front desk. It took a while before she came to sit with her."What did he say?" Serena checked her phone for the time. It was past four pm already."He said he was going to talk to the officer in charge. The chances of seeing him may be low."Serena wanted to ask why but prison visiting policies weren't exactly something you'd give yourself a headache about if you had no money.A young looking middle aged man walked into the reception. He wasn't in uniform but the way he brought decorum into the place showed that he was a well respected officer. He even had some uniformed officers walking closely behind him.Mabel confirmed it when she stood up to greet him immediately. "Good afternoon Chief," she smiled as she walked up to him f

"How was your meeting with your aunt yesterday?" Hadley asked Serena as they finished watching a movie together. She had given her space since she came back home."What can I say? Touching? I knew half of the reason he he did what he did was my fault, he said it." Serena said as she scratched the paint off her big toenail."He said what? Who is he?" Hadley wondered."Oh, I forgot to say. I saw my uncle yesterday. We went to the prison together." Serena said calmly as she went over the memory of her uncle in prison in her head."Ouu, I'm so sorry. How was he?" Hadley folded her legs in as she shut down the laptop."Not the Uncle Jeff we know, he looked way taller with his body emanciated." Serena said."Why would he say that, looks like he's blaming you for…""He didn't put it right, he's not blaming me. He just did things the wrong way to give us a good life, that's all. A lot of guys do it, he was just unlucky to be caught.""Is he going to get out soon?" Hadley asked.Serena shook h

"Hi Melvin," a caramel blondie in an orange tank top and gray sweatpants dropped a white plastic bag on the counter in front of him."Hey," his greeting was cold and she knew she deserved that. She sighed. "I'm really sorry I haven't texted you since the other night, I had a lot to cope with…""What is this?" He sniffed the bag from where he stood.Serena returned to the cheerful mood she hopped into the store with, "croissants from Creamhood, I got them for you" she straightened the bag to reveal the logo on it."Oh, nice," he nodded as he moved things around the counter."It's not a bribe," she bent her neck to the side in a seemingly cute way, "look, can you spare me a minute, please?" Serena begged."I'm busy, Serena," Melvin said as he tapped on the fine wood of the counter. "Okay, I'll just call Tom to take my place for some time."Serena took the croissants out with her. Melvin led her to the front of the store where they had met the first time. They sat down. Serena got the c

It was late afternoon on Friday. The day of the beach party. Melvin had sent her a funny sticker after she had had a short chat with him. He was going to leave work late but he would make it just in time for the event.The company she had interviewed with had already sent her an email saying they'd move on with another candidate. She didn't care less. It wouldn't affect her mood.She stood in front of the mirror and turned her back to see if the short she intended wearing for the party was covering her butt cheek properly. She was going to wear it with a spaghetti strap top and a chiffon kimono over it.She turned again to see her back then she adjusted it a bit. Perfect. She had had it for a year now. She hadn't worn it to any school event so it was quite new to the eyes that had not seen it.She made sure to check if she had any pictures of it on Instagram. There were none. Hadley barged into the room without knocking as she made to remove the short. "What is wrong with you?" Sere

Serena's face was a mixture of shock and horror. She was still in the same position, her back lying in the grip of his arm, with her knees bent and her toes gripping the sand on the ground beneath her. If she made the wrong move, she would hit the ground. Jaxon wouldn't let her hit the ground. She knew that. But why was he here, how did he get here? A rush of questions feel her head and it took a few seconds for her to realize they were the centre of attraction to the people close by.Swiftly, she got on her feet and even though she staggered a bit away from Jaxon, she gained balance His eyes never left where she was, yet he said nothing as if waiting for her to yell, to ask all the questions she had in her head. To confess that she had been waiting for him and she was mad at him for coming late.Andre scoffed, "Who is he?" He pointed his glass of beer towards Jaxon's chest level.Jaxon gave a smirk that only Serena could take notice of. He still hadn't removed his gaze from her. M

Serena managed to get through the event without feeling intimidated. Jaxon made sure he didn't leave her side for too long. He introduced her to his parents as his girlfriend, he was so proud of it.They had received her warmly, contrary to what she had expected. She was surprised to see his brother, he was calm, handsome and soft spoken. She had imagined him to be a viscous, stubborn, shorter man.He smiled at her when she put her hand forward for a handshake. It wasn't the best of smiles, but for someone who was in some sort of rivalry with his brother who happened to be her boyfriend, he gave her a warm reception.Jaxon's father was just as she imagined, like the clips from the news, he was funny, but he still had that wall around him, like he was a small god and unapproachable. He had complimented her dress and told her he'd heard of her wonders and he was happy to see her.His mother on the hand was the sweetest soul, she hugged her and was surprised to hear the college she gradu

He had seen her on the dress before but it didn't look as elegant as this, he wiped his face with a handkerchief to be sure he wasn't getting teary. She had curled her hair into magnificent waves that dropped to her shoulders.Her shoulders gleamed under the bright chandelier that hung on the ceilings of the stairs. She flashed her radiant smile at him, his heart melted again. She was wearing the emerald green version of the blue heart necklace which was paired with complementary earrings.It seemed like she was taking forever to come down the stairs. He resisted the urge to meet her where she was and lift her in his arms down the stairs.It felt like prom night again, but with someone he actually loved. She finally met him at the foot of the stairs and placed her manicured hands on his jacket and straightened the collar. They heard a gentle cough from behind and separated. Uncle Jeff came from the living room and handed her her coat. “I expect that you won't catch a cold with him,

“I'd like for us to have an official date, not just reconciling in the middle of a launch like this, it's so busy around here, but first I'd like to invite you to my inauguration party this weekend” Jaxon leaned in to whisper to Serena.Serena's eyes darted from left to right and she looked up at him. She didn't expect him to say that. “Inauguration party?” “Yes, you know, corporate stuff, I'm sorry it's going to be a lot bigger than this and all of that formal shit, but I'll be by your side. I want you by my side.”“I…I don't know, I'd love to…but,” she began but he hushed her before she made any excuse.“I'm desperate right now to be honest and I can go on my knees for you not to refuse me. Did I forget to tell you or has Hadley told you?”“Told me what?” Serena asked confused.Jaxon’s mood shifted to a more solemn one, “I heard you found out who your…real mum is.” Serena nodded and kept on paying attention to him, the information wasn't something to bother her again. “And she happ

Serena loved her experience in Florida, the person she had stayed with was the most hospitable person ever. She showed her around herself, she made sure she always had something to eat. She even waited for her at the airport during her arrival in Florida.She took her to the most exciting places, met new sane people. She fell in love with the most mundane things and she had a lot of fun.It was quite sad that everything had to come to an end but she was excited for what was coming. Hadley was going to launch her restaurant in the coming week so she left Florida during the weekend.Uncle Jeff and Aunt Mabel were so happy to see her. They had celebrated New Year without her. She immediately went to Hadley's house to see her, her brother and mum had come to Rhode Island for the launch too.Serena remembered when she used to crush on Hadley's brother. Hadley had been so against it, that they almost fought. He had more tattoos now and Serena already heard he had a girlfriend, so there was

“Serena, Hadley is here!” Mabel called Serena from the front door. Serena screamed with joy like she'd been for her since forever. She wore her indoor slippers and ran down the stairs.“Oh my God, Hadley,” she hugged her until they both fell on their knees and were lying on the floor of the front door. Mabel looked at the hilarious sight, it felt good to see them like this again. It was like they were sixteen and about to resume high school again.“Come on girls, you're making fools of yourselves in front of the neighbors.”“Hey, the neighbors,” Hadley jumped to her feet and gave Serena a helping hand, “is Gavin still around?” She grinned.Serena tapped he arm lightly, “all you know how to do is ask after your men, you wouldn't ask how I'm doing before you move into your men.” She joked.Serena carried Hadley's small travel bag inside the house. Hadley came behind her and shut the door. She took off her shoes at the small passageway just before she entered the living room. Mabel gave

Jaxon wondered why she demanded to meet him in person. She'd been trying to contact him for days and the assistant he assigned to her had been bugging him.He finally decided to spare some time for her. He arranged a meeting with her at a cafe close to his office. He made sure it was during busy hours when people would be around in case she wanted to try something funny.She had the effrontery to be late, he kept on checking his wristwatch for the time. He ordered coffee and sipped it bit by bit as he watched the people walking into the cafe through his shades.A few people still managed to recognize him, some of them pointed at him discreetly. It was amusing how he had turned from nobody to somebody and everyone wanted to identify with him. He didn't like having bodyguards around him, so he still had to deal with pushing some people off by himself.Anybody would rush at him, for business proposals, for food, money, assistance. He didn't know how to explain to them that he wasn't a wa

Serena chose to ignore her presence and sat down beside her Uncle who was seated alone at the breadth of the rectangular table. Aunt Mabel sat opposite her, next to him while Amora sat beside her sister. They were having fried turkey with rice and salad. Serena allowed Aunt Mabel to dish her food and she began eating. She expected them to say something about why this woman was with them. They didn't say anything until they finished eating.The normal tradition was to watch sitcoms together anytime they had a meal at the dinning room. Aunt Mabel would be the first to sit in the sitting room, Serena would join her while Uncle Jeff would come in last.Aunt Mabel always slept halfway into movies, Serena and Jeff would binge watch movies together until Uncle Jeff was tired he'd take her aunt into the room while she either continued watching more shows or she'd retired to her room.That was when they ate together, but on other nights when she had her meal in her room, she'd just watch stu

Serena began speaking after the waiter left. She had given the restaurant a four star review for both of them.“I know my place, Jaxon. Our worlds are totally different and you have a lot going on. I should be the least of your worries. Whatever you have going on with your brother, you should resolve it. Family is more important, focus on that. You might regret it so much if you lose any of them. It can happen at anytime, any minute, so please, take care of yourself. I'll always remain grateful to you for getting my uncle out and giving us our house back, but you see, it makes us even more indebted to you. I don't think any further affiliation with you would be good.”Jaxon sighed, “I'm not asking you for anything. It's just..”“My uncle still has to work for your company to make sure everything is returned, doesn't he?” Serena asked him, he sighed, they both knew the answer.“It's not like he's working for the replacement of the funds, I'll figure it out, but it's not like you're s

She wore a teardrop pearl necklace that sitted well on her chest suiting the V-neck blouse she'd chosen to wear her black mini skirt with. It was nothing grand, she reminded herself.She had picked the venue and made sure to come twenty minutes late. She walked into the cafe and didn't have to look around too much to find him. He was punctual, all these things he was doing to repent.He had shades on, but she could tell him apart even if there were several men wearing the same suit he wore. He looked nice in a suit. She laughed in her head, he still became the corporate guy he dreaded so much - because of her, she was reminded by another of her thoughts. Shut Up- she told it back.Lemons - he had started using that bath wash again or he intentionally used it to remind her of the first time she met him. She maintained her stoic expression. He wasn't exactly smiling at her as well, but he looked good, seductive as always in whatever he wore. He would be the center of attraction in his
