CHAPTER 2: Billionaire Daughter

SCARLETT'S POV

I nod in agreement as I tap my chin thoughtfully with my index finger while I listened to Sky go on and on about the places we would be touring during our stay in the city. She was reading from her phone over the list we've made from our inquiries about the city before we left home.

We arrived Birmingham's airport few minutes ago after a few hours flight from Australia, Canberra's airport. Upon our arrival, the private uber we ordered was already waiting and without hesitation we hopped in and let him drive us through the streets of the beautiful city, to our already booked rotunda hotel.

'We'll also check out the famous birmingham canal, heard so much about it. I definitely can't afford to miss this opportunity of seeing it with my own eyes.' She said excitedly and I chuckled softly.

'You won't Sky, that's why we made a list. Besides, we've got a lot of time and money to check out every part of this city if we want to.' I said and she nodded quickly in agreement.

'That's true sugar. I also heard the famous billionaire company, JP's Enterprise has it's headquarters here in Birmingham. I'd be so thrilled to check it out.' She gushed with wide eyes, now chewing on the lollipop she was initially licking when we alighted the plane.

'Breathe Sky,' I smiled at her before casting my eyes out the window.

I hope this tour leaves no room for regrets for us but is one that'll be filled with pleasant memories.

'Can't wait to visit the museum, the art galleries and even the renowned symphony hall. This tour's so gonna be lit.' I said and Sky immediately agreed.

Even though we've been planning this trip since our graduation from college last summer, we always get excited when we talk about it or the places we can't wait to tour.

For Skylar and I, nothing else mattered more than being with the people we love and care about while living our dreams. And that's how it's gonna continue because I'm never letting anyone get in the way of our friendship or happiness.

*******

'We're here, Miss.'

My eyes snapped open on hearing the driver's words.

Sky and I had fallen asleep some minutes ago during the ride, with her head on my shoulder and mine on her head.

'Wake up Sky, we've arrived.' I nudged her slightly.

'Oh dear, when did I fall asleep?' She yawned and stretched. I smiled and opened the car door, stepping out immediately.

The middle-aged driver was already removing our luggage from the boot while I look around our surrounding.

The hotel was a massive rotunda with over 20 stories, each having a balcony. It stood tall over several other buildings around.

'Oh my gosh! THISSS IS beautiful!' Sky gushed beside me.

'I agree Sky,' I smiled noddingly. 'Now girl can't wait to explore our personal suite.' I grinned, turning around to the driver as he took the last luggage out.

'Thank you, Mr Mills. I'm guessing we'll see you around.' I said to him with a small smile.

'You're welcome Miss, we're always at your service.' He smiled. 'Do have a wonderful stay during your tour in this humbled city.'

Sky and I smiled over his words and bade him farewell. Soon his car drove out the parking lot of the hotel and I turned to Sky.

'You ready?' I said with a knowing grin.

'Let's deal, baby.' She smirked.

We walked into the building, pulling our luggage with us and soon made the way to the closest elevator after dealing with the necessary formalities at the front desk. Soon, we stepped in the elevator and let it take us to the 15th floor where our room's located. Sky kept grinning from ear to ear after seeing some goodlooking fellas at the reception. I can already predict her next action. You should know she's one crazy girl...

The elevator door opened at the 10th floor and a young woman decked in expensive jewelries walked in, her black suede platform stiletto clicking as she walked. She was dressed in a black silk sleeveless Gucci-logo plaque knee-length dress, and her ringed fingers held unto a grey prada clutch. Her brunette hair, was held up in a low bun. Her right wrist was decorated with the latest armani wristwatch and a pretty diamond bracelet. She didn't walk in alone, about four intimidating looking bodyguards escorted her. Her strong but pleasant perfume made it obvious she uses the famous tom ford brand. Everything about her screamed wealth _excess wealth. Plus, she's undeniably pretty.

She looked the perfect definition of a billionaire daughter...

It only took me a few seconds to notice everything she had on. I felt Skylar nudged me slightly and I pursed my lips, knowing she wanted badly to say something. Thankfully, some seconds later, the elevator arrived at the 15th floor and Sky and I walked out quickly.

Finally outside, we both stared wide eyed at each other.

'Now who the heck was that?' I gasped.

'Scarlette I've gotta be dreaming right? I didn't just...we didn't just met UK's famous billionaire daughter right?'

'You know her?!' I raised a brow questioningly.

'C'mon Scarlett, you don't know the only daughter of the billionaire company? She's the only daughter of the Chairman of JP's Enterprise.' Sky explained.

I mouthed an 'Oh' as a clear understanding of her appearance sank in.

'I mean, thanks to Cole I've heard alot about her and seen a lot of her photos but boy, never expected to ever see her in person.' Sky said, a bewildered expression on her face.

'Is she that great?' I asked, casting a glance towards the elevator.

'What?!' Sky gasped dramatically. 'That's Imogen we're talking about. She's pretty and hot as f**k as Cole would always say, the idiot is badly crushing on her. Have you seen his room? No let's rephrase that. Have you seen her brother? Girl, boy is f**king hot!'

'Really?! Tell me about it!' I said, feigning interest as we begin to walk down the hallway, in the direction our suite was located. Sky immediately began to talk about this dude or that dude. I honestly don't care but because she's Sky, I had to play along.

'...his I*******m followers...'

She suddenly paused, I looked sideways at her wondering why she suddenly stopped talking only to see her looking so dazed.

'Sky?' I called. She didn't look at me, that's when I followed her gaze and....

'OMG!!!' I gasped and my mouth remained hung agape.
