My Best Friend’s Father Wants me Charter 44
Enora:"And we are all done. Let's see how you look."I walked to the mirror in my dress and high heels and gasped as soon as I saw myself.I could barely recognize the face I saw in the mirror. Was this really me?I... I... I looked gorgeous! Drop dead gorgeous!Tears welled in my eyes. I was going to cry. I didn't even recognize myself for even a minute.Alexa's hours of gruelling work had paid off and I was staring at the goddess in the mirror.My brown hair was sleek and shiny, reflecting the light of the room like polished metal.It was longer than I thought as well. Hanging way past my breasts and touching just a bit above my belly button."You look amazing, Enora. Your hair is really healthy for someone who doesn't have an extensive haircare routine. You have good genes."I grinned but didn't look away from the mirror. I had completely transformed. This was amazing."One more thing," Alexa added.She grabbed a bottle, sprayed it through my hair, and used a large-tooth comb to r

Enora:My jaw nearly dropped but I said nothing and pulled myself together. I wasn’t going to rile myself up. I was going to be cool and mature about all of this.“Hello Crystal,” I said politely, trying not to sound so abrasive even though I wanted to shove the champagne glass in my hand down her throat.“Enora…”She looked me over. Her nose was looking less witchy than I thought. Probably because of the nose contour thing that makeup artists do.“...You look stunning. I love your hair. It looks less…messy. It’s lovely.”I drew air into my lungs. That was an insult but I was going to be the bigger person–even though I was much shorter than her–and ignore her.I looked up at Mr. Wright and he looked very uncomfortable. Yep. My hunch was right. He did invite her, or at least knew that she was coming and wanted to keep it from me. That was why he was trying to get me to leave.“Well, what brings you here, Crystal. I am certain that you aren’t coming because of the company.”“Oh, no. I

Enora:It was difficult to not be rude but I couldn't hide the astonishment on my face realizing that Adam, Mr. Wright’s driver was gay and he was sleeping with the guy that I had met in the elevator. It just didn’t make sense.Or maybe it did. I had always wondered where Adam stayed when Mr. Wright and I were in the penthouse. Now, at least I had my answer.My head went back and forth between them, trying my best to comprehend this bizarre situation. It was even more creepy since Devin kissed Adam on the cheek. And he let him!Ever since I got this job, Adam has always been a stone-faced guy. I didn't think that he was into anyone. Nothing would have prepared me for this revelation.“Enora?"Adam's deep voice put me out of the system malfunction in my brain and I finally shook his outstretched hand.“I'm really sorry,” I said meekly, trying my best to not seem weird and awkward. "I just wasn't prepared for this…uhmmm…revelation. I always thought that Adam wasn't into anyone.”To my

Nathan:My eyes searched the room. Where did she run off to? God, I swear, this girl was a handful.I grabbed another flute of wine from the passing waiter and began swimming through the crowd.Each passing thought was filled with worry. I hope she didn't bump into you-know-who. Arghhh... If only she could have just listened to me.The gala was lively but parties would never be my thing. I was hoping to meet some potential investors here but this place was filled with nothing but celebrities and mediocre businessmen and women, looking to sink their claws into the next unsuspecting company and waiting to pull them down into bankruptcy."Mr. Wright?"A light voice called me from behind and I turned around.A small, white-haired woman stood behind me. She was no taller than five feet. Her face was old but she looked beautiful nonetheless."Yes?" I replied coldly, taking her in with one glance."I am Miss Grace Hadid. I am the CEO of Grace Inc.–"I rolled my eyes. Grace Inc. I didn't exp

Enora:"Let me go!"I was tied to a bed frame and was screaming at the top of my lungs. The room was lit a bright red that made me feel slightly woozy.And the smell... It was something I couldn't place. It was sweet and mysterious. It was getting to my head and I could feel my skin getting hotter and hotter.What was this?"Miss Lopez. Always do radiant. Seeing you like this is truly a sight to behold. You look amazing tied up."I watched him lick his lips hungrily. His shirt and suit jacket were off. He stood before me in just his trousers, glaring down at me like a hungry predator.My struggle gave him so much glee. In the red light, I saw his eyes spring to life as he saw me squirm."Let me go! Coward!""Shouting will do you no good, Miss Lopez. The room is soundproof and frankly...your voice has better uses."That sick smile of his made my skin crawl. God, how did I get myself into this mess?My phone and my purse were on the table, out of my reach. I should have called Mr. Wrig

Nathan:I barrelled down the hallway. This was not how I envisioned this evening.The sound of security officers running behind me was not a sound that I imagined would be associated with me.The corridor was long, with rooms on each side. My heart skipped a beat as I passed each one. Each one I passed could have Enora in it, but I couldn't stop to check.Fuck! This was what it was like between a rock and a hard place.I took a sharp turn and bumped my shoulders on the wall."Ahhhhh!"I grabbed my shoulder. It had been dislocated and hung limply by the side.I couldn't stop running. I didn't have time to pop it in place. Fuck it!I took my chance and entered one of the rooms."Ahhhhhhh!"My jaw dropped."Adam?"His face was a bright red but not redder than the man that was beneath him.He was the guy who was with Enora and Mr. Romeo earlier before Mr. Romeo took Enora away.My breath was deep and angry. I was about to storm towards him but the door slammed open and I backed up against

Enora:“Where was he? What was taking him so long?”My phone was in my hand and I was shaking with fear. Adam had dropped me at the penthouse and drove to the station to meet Mr. Wright.It was 6:00 am. And I still have not heard from him. His phone was not ringing. He wasn’t picking up my calls and I didn’t have Adam’s number.The sofa creaked slightly as I plopped myself down. I couldn’t get a single wink of sleep. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Mr. Romeo, naked and laughing, just inches, seconds away from having his way with me.A shiver rippled through my body. Another nightmare to add to the ones that I already had.My hands hid my face and I sobbed. Why were things always happening to me? I came for a job to pay up my student loan but now, all this drama was happening to me. Was I some sort of jinx? Why did it always happen to me?The sound of a keycard swiping made me raise my head. I stood up in alarm and Adam walked in followed by…I jumped up and ran into his arms. He st

Enora:“Dear, can you smell something?”I sniffed the air. No one’s sense of smell was really good if the person had a cold but I was certain that it was nothing. Besides, I could still smell mom’s cooking and it was amazing.“Nope. I think it’s fine. You are probably worrying too much.”I kissed her cheek and she smiled. Thanksgiving was going to be perfect. The turkey was being stuffed and Mum and I were making jokes about last year's Thanksgiving.“Your father is such a clutz. I hope he won’t spill the orange juice on your grandpa again this year.”We broke into another round of laughter and Father appeared at the doorway.“Oi! Who’s making jokes about me?”He was in his sweater that grandma had knitted him last year. He always complained that it was itchy but he always wanted to impress my mom’s parents even though they had already been married for seventeen years now.“Dad, it is just a joke. We didn’t mean to.”He walked in and pulled me into the tightest hug of the century. I f

Enora:All eyes turned to Mrs. Vermont and her mouth clamped shut immediately. I wanted to laugh but I swallowed it and it came out as a nasty croak that made Mrs. Vermont’s eyes darken.She glared hatefullt at me, grabbed her husbands armand pulled him off the stage. They disappeared into the crowd and everyone followed them as they walked to the exit.“Good riddance,” I muttered and smiled warmly at Mr. Wright, eho plnted another kisson my forehead.“Well, I guess we shall continue our party,” the host announced and the party’s lively vibe came back. A slow waltz was playing in the background and everyone made their way to their tables for dinner.“Would you please come with me,” our host said and the De Bances, Mr. Wright and I followed him.I clutxhed Mr. Wright’s arm excitedly. I was happy rtthat we won but even happier that I shut Mrs. Vermont’s mouth up. She was all prim and proper but completely lost it when she realized that she was in last place. It was a picturesque moment.
My Best Friend’s Father Wants me Chapter 202
Enora:We got to the main banquet hall just in time. There was a lovely murmur everywhere. Not too far away, a couple was talking happily and smiling with the host. There were some paper slips on the stage, and the couple were chatting excitedly amongst themselves.“...can’t believe that they won the competition…”“...heard they paid the host and his firm.”“You’re wrong. They have good ties with the host. That was why they won.”My heart was racing in my chest. Did they call out the results already? Did we win?My eyes searched the hall for sparkly, snobby Mrs. Vermont, and I finally found her standing happily next to her husband, chatting casually with another couple. From the looks of it, she wasn’t overly posh and was doing her usual flaunting of her diamonds.If I wasn’t mistaken, another game was played, and the couple that were chatting excitedly with the host had probably won. I exhaled and felt my tension ebb away for a moment. I guess there was still a chance that I could bu

Enora:My face burned red and I felt my breath nearly escape my lungs. I pulled myself away from Mr Wright’s grasp and fumbled with my dress, trying my best not to catch the eye of the couple that stood in front of us: dumbfounded and their jaws loose.“Uhmmm… e-excuse us.”I grabbed Mr. Wright’s arm and we hurried out of the elevator. I wish I could atomize and disappear. This was so embarrassing.“Why are you smiling?” I asked with slight annoyance, looking up at Mr. Wright’s beaming face and his bright brown eyes.He stopped and in one swift movement, he grabbed me and pinned me to the wall. My heart was racing. My face was still red, but the thrill of getting caught again made this even more exhilarating.“We can’t do this here,” I whispered harshly. “You are going to get us caught.”“And what is the matter with that?” he asked slyly, taking me in with burning desire, pressing harder to me and inching closer and closer to my lips. “Do you not want to be seen with me?”“I…”The wor

Nathan:I felt her body tense up and I smirked. Even when she didn’t mean to, my kitten was competitive and it was one of the many things I loved about her.“The winner of this competition is…. going to be announced at the end of the party.”“What?!”All eyes turned to Mrs. Vermont and she cleared her throat and hid her unruly outburst with a smile. I looked down at my feisty little kitten and she was giving her a nasty stare. I couldn’t help but laugh. She was such a character when he wanted to be.“Thank you so much for participating. You may join the others.”We all went down to join the rest of the audience. Mrs. Vermont was trying to keep her act together but her eye was twitching in rage.I heard a light giggle and saw my kitten with her hand over her mouth, smiling and fighting to keep in her next fit of laughter.“Funny?”She looked up at me and her face became serious.“I’m… I’m sorry. I just…”I raised an eyebrow at her and she pouted and exhaled in defeat.“Fine,” she sighe

Enora:The lively tango music filled the air and Mrs. Vermont was quick on her feet. Her jewelled heels peeked from underneath her dress as she stepped quick and her husband dipped her low, following her movements.She was one with the beat, following the music as her husband dipped her low and pulled her close in a sensual dance that made it look like they were making teasing love in public.The crowd wooed and clapped and I turned away in embarrassment and felt my face burn.“Looking away, are we, kitten?” Mr. Wright teased, grabbing my chin and making me look at him. “Does that dancing bother you that much?”“N-No,” I scoffed, nervously, still unable to look at the dancing couple. The way Mr. Vermont pulled her in close, his lips teasing her neck, his hand sliding up her thigh, it just felt… I mean… they should get a room.The lively sensual dancing continued with eccentric moves and spins that made my head spin.I took a deep breath and watched them and at an interval, Mrs. Vermon

Enora:Mr. Wright pulled me tightly to him and smiled warmly."Last I checked, me and you make a pretty good team. Want to do it again?"My body shivered in delight. Was that even up for debate? Of course, I wanted to dance with him again."We shall only be allowed three couples to dance together. And I shall draw at random from the box."My spirits slightly fell. I couldn't tell how many people had put their names in the box, but it was very likely that Mr Wright and I wouldn't be picked for the dance.The host put his hand into the box and swirled it around for a bit. My breath got caught in my throat as I watched eagerly and prayed that our names would be called. It felt like a one-in-a-million chance, but still, I hoped for the best."The first couple to be dancing will be–"He pulled out the paper and squinted his eyes."–Mr. and Mrs. Vermont."An elegant couple moved through the crowd and got up on the stage. Despite their masks, I could tell they were lovely and rich.Mrs Vermo

Enora:He looped his arm and I slipped mine through. He smiled warmly at me and I felt my heart flutter. For the first in a long time, it felt like I was living a fairy tale.He guided me inside, smiling warmly at guests and pulling me close when eyes wandered in my direction.My dress sparkled in the light and I turned heads as I walked by.I could hear whispers and gossip and a few men smiled and winked at me.I stole a glance at Mr. Wright and he seemed to almost read my mind and unlink his arm from mine and pull me close to him from around my hips."Wouldn't want any male thinking that you are available," he said with a whisper to my ear followed by a soft kiss than made many of the oggling male gazes turn away.I smiled. I couldn't explain the joy I was feeling. I felt like a beautiful damsel with my prince charming, walking beside me and keeping wishful eyes away.We got into the banquet hall and I nearly gasped. The ceiling was adorned with jeweled chandeliers that refracted th

Enora:I stared at myself in the mirror and did a little twirl. I still couldn't believe that I was wearing Versace’s most expensive dress. This was still like a dream.I raked my fingers through my curls and smiled. This was going to be a good evening. I felt it. Something just seemed right. The only thing out of order was the dozens of missed calls and angry texts from Anthony.I didn’t seem to care anymore. Normally I would call him back but my entire body was humming to Mr. Wright. I would close my eyes for a few minutes and I would see that look he gave me, etched in my mind's eyes. Even his voice resonated in my brain, saying that he needed me. It just felt… different.Those words, when he said them, I could feel the yearning dripping in every word. I saw him almost every day but he said them like he hadn’t seen me for a lifetime.“Deep breaths, Enny. No need to overthink it. He probably is going through something very… moving. I mean, he did just have a big fight with his daugh

Enora:He pressed the button and slid the phone back to me. I grabbed it in surprise and held it to my chest while I looked at his face. Was he mad?His eyes were cold but his face was calm.“I don’t know why you still put up with him,” he said dryly, grabbing my chin and planting a tentative kiss on my lips. I moaned softly and soon burned red as he pulled away and realized that we were still in the restaurant.“Are you jealous of him?” I teased back and he grabbed my chin a little harder.“You should really choose your words carefully, Kitten,” he purred huskily, his eyes travelling down to my skirt. “My fingers still feel twitchy.”I lowered my eyes, trying to not see the smirk on his face as he took in my blotchy embarrassed expression. There was no way that I was going to be able to walk home after a second time.He stood up, took my hand and fiddled with my hair lovingly. His eyes were filled with that same softness from before and it made my heart melt. There was something abou
