A vacation with the billionaire's son Chapter 41
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

The guy let go of her immediately and staggered away. Serena caught Hadley before she could fall on the floor."What is wrong with you? How did you get here? Who's that guy?" She asked different questions at once even though she knew it was useless. She fixed all her attention on Hadley."SC…SC, is that …" Hadley hiccuped as she tried to confirm if it was Serena."Just look at you, you're wasted. Hold on to me, I'll get you out of here." Serena put her hand over her shoulder in an attempt to guide her away from there."You know you need some help. Just say it." Jaxon stood there with his arms folded.Serena huffed and tilted her head backwards, "I don't know what makes you think you're some sort of superhero, kindly stay out of my business."Hadley fell off from her grip and Jaxon hurried to cat h her immediately. Serena held Hadley on one end, while he supported from the other.They both stared at each other for a while, their silence carried anger, uncertainty and numerous unsaid st

"Seriously? He was here? You didn't talk to him? What happened?" Hadley bombarded her with questions the next morning as she prepared hot chocolate for both of them.Serena shook her head, "I really wish you were sane, but then would you have made things better? I guess not." She shrugged.Hadley's shoulders slumped, "I know, my bad, I don't even remember half of what happened yesterday. I never even got a chance to see Mirabel…did you see her?" Hadley asked.Serena sighed as she remembered what transpired the previous night just before Jaxon showed up, "it was like highschool drama, all over again. I can't even believe everything happened in the space of how many hours.""What's that?" Hadley was puzzled.Serena narrated the story of what happened on the beach right to where Jaxon had help rescue her and drove them home."Phew," Hadley sighed, "that's a lot. I can't believe I missed all of that. So when are you going to see your Mr. Charming?""Really? You think I'd have anything to

The Chicken Pot was one of those restaurants she'd thought she'd only visit if she had more money. It has opened a few years back. All the average folks thought their expensive food prices would drop since it was closer to a demographic that couldn't afford their food, but it never changed. Instead their business flourished and they only added more expensive menus. Most of the rich guys could place orders or drive down to the main restaurant after making reservations of course.Jaxon met her at the park, he took long quick strides towards her in his Adidas sneakers, black jeans and a striped shirt with a hood. He had this look on his face where he was trying not to smile, his movements were bouncy. He felt cool in his head. Serena shook her head and rolled her eyes as he got to where she had been standing. That was where the Uber had dropped her. She was wearing the brown halter top and flared jeans Hadley had planned out for her, but she wore low heels instead of a Converse. Her ha

"I'm here, am I not?" Jaxon spread his arms wide and dropped them."You fucking made me wait for you and you never gave a call, you never said anything,""I had issues with my …" Jaxon tried to speak but she interrupted him."Oh and the airport management also took your phone? Yeah, then you slip in with a "yo, I'm in your city" like you're this good old friend. As if…how did you even know to find me at the beach party?" Serena's chest heaved from letting out all those words she'd been holding in. She had tried her best to keep her voice as low as possible yet, it carried all the rage she'd been burying. Did she like him this much?"At least I was right on time to save you…and your friend.""Oh come on, you save me in Mareco, then you run down to my city to save my ass. I never asked you for the service, Mr. Superhero," Serena rolled her eyes.Jaxon was at a loss of words, but Derek was on time to save him the stress. He placed the plates of chips and ketchup on the table. A female w

Jaxon stopped his car in front of the building that housed Hadley's apartment. "Do I have to come in with you?" He asked as she hung her bag on her shoulder."You couldn't even pick me up, a gentle man wouldn't ask questions. He'd just act." Serena pointed out."I said I was busy," Jaxon folded his lips into a thin line, he was resting in his hand on the raised compartment between their seats and leaning to her side a bit."With your web development thingy," Serena made some spider movements with her fingers.Jaxon sat up, "oh my God, you do remember. I forgot to ask you, how's your internship going and your uncle and aunt?"Serena froze for a second, she had told him that? She could remember faintly, she had mentioned it at the dinner. "What internship?""I also remember you not agreeing that you were drunk when you told me about it." He chuckled."I don't know what you're talking about," she scratched her hair and moved the ones that were over her shoulders backwards."You're stayi

"I saw Melvin today at the mall. He's such a cute guy, he helped me with my bags while I waited for the Uber." Hadley was in front of the dressing mirror, dabbing her face with a face towel.Serena was writing in her journal, she was still in her baby pink robes. She kept flipping through the blank pages of the sage green hard cover book where she poured in her thoughts every now and then.Hadley stopped to look at her, she didn't budge. She just kept on looking at her book, "you haven't talked to him since then, have you?" She tried again.Serena just shook her head and closed the book. She slipped into her fluffy slippers and placed the journal on the bedside drawer. Hadley narrowed her eyes at her, seeing she wasn't going to say a word, "I told him he could come around for dinner some time though."Serena stopped and raised her head, her milk brown eyes were lighter with the rays of the sun striking her face through the open window."That would be nice," she simply shrugged and gr

As Serena and Melvin left the café, the evening breeze carried a sense of relief. While the romantic entanglement between them had been resolved, their friendship had remained intact. Serena couldn't help but feel grateful for Melvin's understanding and the way he had handled the situation with grace.They walked together down the bustling streets of St. Lucas, sharing stories and laughter along the way. Serena felt a sense of ease and comfort in Melvin's company, something she had missed in the whirlwind of emotions with Jaxon.As they reached the corner where they would part ways, Serena turned to Melvin with a genuine smile. "Thank you, Melvin, for being so understanding. You're a true friend."Melvin returned her smile, his eyes warm and sincere. "Serena, you're an amazing person, and I'm glad we can still be friends. Take care of yourself, okay?"They exchanged a friendly hug before going their separate ways, Serena felt lighter and more at peace than she had in days.The text sh

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
