Chapter 23 The Role Model

BOWLING ALLEY, LOS ANGELES.

"You have definitely lost your damn mind!" Aaron bickered, rolling the ball to knock down the arranged woods but he missed. "Shit! Why do I always miss when I am such a good shooter!" He kissed his teeth in frustration.

Leo laughed at him, bending down to roll his. "That is because you are too impatient and overconfident. Just because you dunk balls on the court doesn't mean you can roll a ball."

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Funny…I hear you. Show me what you have got." He scoffed.

Rolling the ball expertly, every of the woods fell apart. Leo dusted an invincible dirt from his shoulder proudly. "What did I tell you again? Call me the boss." He howled.

Aaron sneered at him. “That's all you can do. Can we take a break now."

Leo breathed heavily. “Sure, I am quite tired as it is."

Sitting by a table with their can of energy drinks in hand, they both moaned in relief as their back hit the chair. The both of them have been bowling for close to twenty m

She was surprised when Zac called to tell her that he was in LA. Being a Sunday, it didn't seem like a bad idea for a nice outing. He had only come around for the fashion week of a luxurious brand which he had been invited to. In order to catch up with her and Sinclair, he had arrived a day earlier than his schedule.As she watched her son play heartily with him, Darby wished she had the courage to take a deeper glance at Zac and probably feel something for him. But she couldn't bring herself to pull him along with no real intentions, unless a situation like that of Leo disturbing her as regards Sinclair come up. And from the look of things, Zac doesn't seem to have a problem with the new found title."Should we visit the pizza parlor?" Zac asked Darby as he lifted Sinclair off the ground.She smiled widely. “Whatever

"She legit called you to drive them to the mall?"Leo rolled his eyes, opening the beer can and the sound made him inhale in relief. "I was like she wouldn't mean that. To my utmost shock my phone began burning up from her persistent calls and Chloe was practically pouting around the house at my refusal. After what feels like forever, I eventually gave in. But what I do not understand is why my own mother made me roam around the mall with her shopping bags for the longest two hours of my life." He winced like someone in pain.Aaron was practically laughing his head off uncontrollably. "I can't start to imagine how awful you would have looked. You are a CEO for crying out loud.""I really wish someone would help remind her of it. But she is always trying to find a means to deprive me of peace.""Your mom is truly one of a kind.""Don't even go there."

    Chapter 27 Bridal dressAIRPORT ARRIVALS, LOS ANGELES.It’s Friday. Leo sniffed as he checked his wristwatch again. Due to Chloe's insistence on him picking her up, he had canceled all his schedules for the rest of the day. She was becoming very emotional on the phone and he had no choice but to agree. She probably had the phone on speaker after boasting to her friends of how affectionate he is. Chloe can be really superfluous and would do anything to manipulate anyone to get what she wants in the most innocent way.A small smile tugged at his lips when he saw her, chic as ever with her trolley being pulled along. Chloe looked like a perfect Los Angeles lady with the playsuit and sneakers she had on. It made him feel a bit of a twitch in his eyes. When she raised her head to find him, Leo waved his hand at her putting on a full fledged smile. Yes, his decision to forget about Darby and focus solely on his future is the best. Chloe would make a good partner and they would grow together

    Chapter 29 A splitting imageLEO’S HOME, LOS ANGELES.Chugging down the rest of the tequila in the glass, Leo hissed as it burned his throat. Ruffling his hair, he tried not to picture the action that took place at Darby's office. He shouldn't have let himself get dragged to the place by Chloe. To punish her, he had refused her request to return to his house and had dropped her off at her house. It's annoying to see his once upon a time fling; since they never got to date, be affectionate towards someone else in front of him. To make matters worse, he has no right to decide whoever she hangs out with.However, there was something more disturbing. Darby's son looks nothing like the man she claimed to have had him for. There is no possible way the child won't at least look a part like his father. It made his head ache at the thought that Darby probably lied to him. Getting off the kitchen stool he sat on, he went in search of his phone on the couch. Tapping on a contact, he waited for

A small chuckle escaped his lips at the emoji of a bodybuilder that was added to the “You can do this text.”Finally summoning some courage, he stepped out of the car. A ring from his phone distracted him and he fished it out of his pocket. He exhaled at the caller.‘Hey, baby.’ Chloe moaned into the receiver the moment Leo answered.‘What is it, Chloe?’ He asked losing interest at each passing moment.‘Why do you sound so cold?’‘Do I?’ Leo retorted. ‘I'm quite busy at the moment, Chloe. What is it you want to tell me that you couldn't text?’She sounded deflated on the other line. ‘I was just calling to check on you. You didn't call me all through last night.’Mentally telling himself to be

As he tried adjusting his eyes to the light, he saw Chloe picking up his clothes which he had taken off and tossed to the ground before getting into bed last night. Meeting with Darby had put him in a mood and to get over it he had held a pity party for himself and drank a bit too much. His head ached."What are you doing here, Chloe?" He asked in a croaky voice as he sat up straight on the bed.Chloe had a displeased look on her face. "Do you know what time it is?""Past noon." He replied letting out a loud yawn."Really, baby? Why are you always so comfortable sleeping in for so long on a weekend?""Why can't I sleep in for as long as I want on a weekend?""Because you need to spend sometime with me baby." She cooed affectionately, crawling onto the bed with a seductive smile.Leo leaned further into the bed like he was
