Celine opened her eyes quickly to the sound of David's voice as she turned.
She saw that he had bowed and was stretching his hand towards her.She looked at the baroness who was smiling as she gestured with her eyes for Celine to accept the invitation from her husband.Celine put her hands on David's hands and stood up.David took her to the dance floor amidst the clapping of their guests who were all smiling and cheering them forward.At the dance floor,David put his hands on her waist which made Celine put her hands on his shoulders.He looked at her with a calm expression and pulled her closer.She gasped as her body came in contact with him,he was so close that she could feel every part of his body.“Relax sweetheart”,he whispered huskily.“But how can I,you are holding me so tightly”,she whispered.“You know we have to play the perfect couple”,Celine was reveling in his kiss, and in the feel of his body against her own.He kissed her over and over again until she was breathless.Pleasure accelerated into her being as he turned her over and laid on top of her,pressing himself against her.As he caressed her neck with his lips,touching the top of his tongue to it to taste her enchanting sweet taste.She reached out and put her fingers in his hair,feeling the thick wavy curls.Seeing her excited and willing,her breathing in pants.He still hesitated,because he knew if they continued this way he would take her.He wanted her to accept him and his caresses willingly,he didn't want her to reject him as she did before,he wanted her to enjoy the passion they have together,but the fear of rejection was pushing him back.Just as he was about to stand up and leave her,Celine was already on fire.She pulled him down to her once a
Entering the office David was smiling,he didn't know why his spirits were lifted today,he answered everyone that greeted him,he even paused to talk to one or two employees and everyone saw his changed mode and were talking about it at the office.But this changed mood didn't go well with one person at the office.“Arabella!”David called,using the office intercom,” come over here with the Canadian project”.“Yes David,” she answered.This was an important project for David and he couldn't afford to miss a project like that.The investors are from Canada and they are willing to pay a huge sum of money for this project,losing it will be a bad business for his company but he was confident that he will get it. This was because his company was the best glass industry in the country. They always had good conduct from clients,so he wasn't scared about that.Although there was a particular thing h
Celine smiled,as she took the roses from him,her face full of brightness and happiness ,she smelled the sweet scent of the roses and put it on the dressing table.“Thank you David,”she said, raising on her toes to kiss him lightly on the lips.She gasped when he held her waist and pressed his body to hers.“That's not enough,” he said roughly,kissing her deeply to demonstrate how it was done.He released her and they both smiled at each other.“How was work today?” she asked, looking at him as he removed his shirt.“Work is fine but I have to prepare for a presentation by tomorrow”.“It is a contract with Canadian investors,so I am hoping to get it because it will be a great achievement in my business,”he said.Celine could not believe David was telling her about his business comfortably,she looked around her thinking she was dreaming,seeing she was not she asked looking happy
Back in the office the next day,David was on his files,studying it and adding some adjustments.“David!”Arabella said, “l was just on the phone with the investors.They said they would be here by 2 pm”.“I think it is a good time,” David said,”Make sure when they come, lunch is served first, we need to take care of our visitors first”."Yes that is true David,I will order some snacks and juice”. Arabella said“Okay”.David muffled under his breath ,engrossed in the files he was checking once again.Arabella went out to make the arrangements.The phone rang and David picked it up.“Hello sweetie', he said,remembering all that they had shared last night, lifted his spirits.“Have you gone to see the manager at the restaurant?”I told him you are coming to handle things over there and the workers are all expecting you”.“Yes sweetheart”,,Celine answered,her voice s
Everyone looked up to see the person talking by the door.“Ah Mr Rawlings”,one of the investors said, “welcome!”“Thank you very much,” Ray came in and shook all the investors then stood in front of David.“Mr wheeler's,”he said,”I don't think we need an introduction, but for formalities sake I think we do.”“It is nice to meet you Mr Wheelers,l am Ray Rawlings.”David had been shocked since the time he recognised his wife's ex husband by the door.Although he hasn't seen him physically but with some of his pictures Celine had shown him,he was able to recognise him instantly.Reluctantly David shook his hands and muttered softly.“Nice to meet you too ,Mr Rawlings.”Both of them stared at each other scrutinizing each other.Looking at the investors Ray said,”l am so sorry for coming late,this was because I was stuck in traffic.”“It's fine
Celine reached the packing lot of the restaurant.The restaurant was quite big and very inviting for customers.Celine moved over to the front of the building,andImmediately the front doors opened and a man came out introducing himself as the manager.“Hello ma'am,you are welcome!” He said,”Thank you so much,”she answered.He opened the door of the restaurant and she went inside to be greeted and welcomed by other staff members.“Thank you all,”Celine said, smiling,“it is good to be here and I hope I will get your maximum cooperation.”“Yes ma'am,” they all chorused.She dismissed them and they all went about their duties.The manager took Celine round the restaurant,showing her every area and how they operate and finally took her to her office.”“I would not need an office," Celine chuckled,"my office would be the kitchen.”she said.“
Celine came back from work feeling exhausted ,David was back already as she could see his car on the driveway.She picked up her bag and went inside.She couldn't see anyone in the living room so she went upstairs to her room.She opened the door but still couldn't see David.She was nervous now because of the way he spoke on the phone,she just wants to see him and know what is actually wrong.The bathroom door opened and David stepped out.Good evening sweetheart,she muttered nervously.“Good evening Celine “he answered without looking at her.Celine was surprised at the way he answered her,now that he has started addressing her by her name again.She dropped her bags and went over to him,”sweetheart what is wrong?”She said, holding his arm.He moved away from her touch furrowing his brows.“Why did you lie to me Celine?
The next day when Celine woke up,David had already gone to work.Celine stood up to prepare for work.She checked on her mother in law and had breakfast with her before she left,making sure the old woman took her drugs.At the restaurant,she went straight to her office and made a phone call to David,seeing that his mood was better this morning,she hung up feeling relieved.She really didn't want to be in his bad books.She went to the kitchen and all the staff there were happy to see her.“What is the menu for today?”she asked the head chef.“We have fried rice, chicken,noodles if anyone demands it,and I need to bake a chocolate cake now," the head chef said.“It was an order from one of our customers,who wants to celebrate her son's birthday this evening.”“Okay I will help you with the cake,”turning to the other staff she said.“Let's bring out the
David woke up and saw that Celine was still sleeping,he entered the bathroom,had a shower and dressed up early for work.At the office he was feeling down due to the contract he had lost.What has Ray Rawlings done that he could get this contract? He was sure the investors knew he wouldn't be able to handle the contract on his own.Well it is to their loss,David said,if they don't know his worth and commitment to a project.As for Celine,he was so upset with her yesterday and now he regretted telling her what he said, the insults he hurled at her and the way he pushed her away from him,but what he was worried about is the familiarity between his wife and her ex- husband.Celine had promised him not to worry, that it was normal for a familiarity to be between two couples who had been together for some time, but he was still very worried.Even if he trusts Celine as his wife and hopes she wouldn't cro
Celine was appalled and was too bewildered to do or say anything,she just laid back on the bed and wondered what just transferred between her and David.Why was he so angry like this?” Had Ray told him something or made a remark that made him so angry.She has to thread carefully,as she doesn't want anything that will jeopardize her marriage Celine got up and went downstairs for dinner.“How are you my dear?” the baroness said,already down but she made no mention of the conflict that just happened between Celine and her son.Celine knew everyone heard him including the maids but everyone seemed to mind their business."I am fine mother,don't worry about me and David, we will sort it out among ourselves,” she said.The old woman looked at her with a worried look,”I have not seen my son look that way since his fiance left him. Please, my dear, reassure me you will talk to him to make his
As Ray left ,Celine went to David's table and asked for permission to leave,because she couldn't sit another second watching Arabella and her husband having lunch.David declined,as he wanted to taunt her more.“Have you eaten?”he asked her.“No!”she answered.“Why haven't you eaten? Oh, I forgot you were talking to the powerful Mr Rawlings,” he said with sarcasm.“No, it's nothing like that,”Celine said,defending herself,”I was in the kitchen all day,cooking and baking a cake, I was so busy that I didn't know it was lunch time already.”“Then sit down and eat!”He commanded, raising his brows when she tried to protest.Celine sat down and David ordered some fried rice and chicken for her also.When the food was brought,she ate it silently.but was fully aware of David's look even as he talked with Arabella.Celine was wondering what he was thinking as he kept on gi
David sat at the office,going through some files.“Good morning David,”Arabella said as she entered the office.“Good morning Arabella,have you heard from the investors,”he asked.“No they haven't called,They said they will call by four pm.”“Okay,”David answered.He was very anxious because this contract means a lot to him and he can't afford to lose it.One thing he was worried about is that he hoped Ray Rawlings would not have a way to bribe them because he had noticed his shrewdness in business.David kept himself busy on his laptop for the meantime.At lunchtime, Arabella came in.“Why don't we go out for lunch David,you have been in the office since this morning,you should take a break.”“Let's go to the restaurant on the other side of the street,” she said,her face bright with excitement.“No!” David said, “I am fine over here,j
