～♡SELLING US OUT♡～

Chapter 6

Camila Vincento.

Shocked but still with a calm expression and composure, Camila shuffled herself out of Vince's grip, with tiny shades of guilt and naiveness building up in her.

She stood straight not being able to see her estranged husband in the eyes. While Vince wondered why she suddenly became cautious and accountable.

Leonardo on the other hand was done, wasting time giving them questionable look as he spoke to Camila's hearing but in a way that it looked like he was sending an unforseen message to confused Vince.

"Change into something soothing and meet me in the car". His stern voice came, then he turned and made his way to his car. The driver opened the backseat for him and he went in.

"I'm so sorry Vince but we'll have to postpone I'll project work till next time. I have something important to meet up with". Camila said in a pleading tone to gasped Vince, who just nodded slowly still not getting all that just happened.

"I can see that. So we'll be meeting somewhere closer to school for to work on the project right?". Vince asked and Camila instantly nodded with an uncomfortable feeling lingering near.

She knew Leonardo was presently waiting for her in his car and knowing his nasty and unforgiven temper she had it right in front of her mind, to see to it that Vince left soonest so she could change into something more soothing like Leonardo had earlier demanded for and go to him.

Luckily as if Vince could read her unspoken thoughts, he called for her attention in a tone depicting his soon departure and tensed Camila heaved a sign of relief as he Vince gobbled out his bading statement.

"So I'll see you in school tomorrow and we'll discuss with the others how well we can meet, so we could quickly work on our project and also submit on the appointed time". Vince said and Camila nodded, her eyes dancing from Vince to Leonardo's car.

"Good night". Vince finally said smiling lightly.

"Good night". Camila muttered back and with that Vince went away on his way.

'Who's the guy waiting for her in the car? And it doesn't look like they're related either cause I see no resemblance and also connection between them. They looked rather estranged with themselves'. Vince wondered within his clouded mind as he got into his own car, which was parked opposite to were Leonardo's car was currently resting. The moment Vince got in, after giving Leonardo's car one last glance from his own windshield he pulled his gear, starting his car engine he zoomed off.

The moment Vince left her presence Camilla wasted no time in running into her shop, going into her private locker room , throwing a short navy blue gown that stopped right on her knees on.

The dress was not new and too pleasant to the sight, but neither was it old and cranky to wear. It was just in between and moderate, suiting the taste of decent Camila who loves things moderately made than the overrated and extraordinary things of life girls of her age always craves for.

She dashed out of the shop locking it up finally, she made her way towards Leonardo's car and got in, only to be greeted by the nice expensive colonge her enigmatic husband had on.

The perfume was so nice that she couldn't help secretly, stealing more sniffs than her own breath.

Leonardo was busy with work on his iPad and she tolled her eyes at him, before sluggishly buckling her seatbelts and almost immediately the driver started the car.

Leonardo had a stoic expression on his face, looking like he was mad at someone or something as he worked on his middle screen with rapt attention.

Then suddenly his emerald green eyes finally took notice of the holden pair of eyes secretly throwing few stares at him.

He turned his gaze to his little wife, who sat obediently like a child at the other end of the seat and his face twisted with disgust and unsatisfaction at the sight before him.

His face visible with scorn, disappointment and frown he eyed his little wife one last time, before returning his gaze back to his IPad but not before instructing the focused and more professional driver in the most anger filled voice ever.

"Stop over at the nearest boutique". Leonardo's cold voice ordered, his gaze fixed on his screen.

"Yes boss". The driver replied aspiring to do as told, as he accelerated the car's speed as usual.

At the sound of Leonardo's statement Camila couldn't help but wonder why Leonardo would ask for such cause to her, he doesn't looks like someone who shops for his clothes himself.

Probably his clients from oversees are the ones behind his exotic clothes importation cause his toxedos and shoes looked foreign.

Curiosity and insecurity made Camila scan through her body with her pleading eyes, as she hoped it wasn't her Leonardo was stopping over at the nearest boutique for.

It was already enough tension when he caught her only few minutes in Vince's firm but secured grip, and now out of how less attractive she looked to him, he wants to stop at the nearest boutique to calm his eye sore and fix her appreance?

Camila still doudted if the incoming boutique service was for her till the car suddenly halted and Leonardo faced her.

"Get off and go change the mistake you're wearing". He muttered in an authoritative tone that almost made Camila flinch in fear.

Then Leonardo stretched forth his right hand to her, revealing his credit card and Camilla gave him a puzzled look.

"Use this to settle the bills". Leonardo said to clear her confusion but Camila quickly shook her head in disapproval.

"I have my own money. I can buy clothes for myself". Camila heard herself say before she knew what was happening.

"Suit yourself". Leonardo replied ignorantly as he pocketed his credut card, while Camila still unconsciously stared at him.

"You're still here?". Leonardo questioned and that was enough to get Camila running out of the car and into the luxurious boutique.

After waiting for what took like eternity Camila finally came out of the boutique in a nice dinner gown, which also stopped on her knees, then she got into the car and the driver drove off.

'It seems she has a knack for wearing cheap clothes. She should have just mentioned she didn't have enough money to fund a more elaborate dress'. Leonardo scoffed within himself, as the ride continued, though his gaze was still on his iPad.

《THE VINCENTO'S MANSION》

Rosella Vincento.

"Were you teasing me when you mentioned Cute Tiger will be arriving with his wife?". Rosella said to her dad.

They were both at the dinning, waiting patiently for Leonardo and his wife to walk through the main door so they could begin eating.

The Chairman sat at the center of the dinning while Rosella sat at the chair by his left.

The table was elegantly dressed and exotically adorned appropriately. There was no food there on the table, only the shining neat cutleries and empty fancy plates and tea pots and cups that were sprawled around the table.

More evidence that they were truly waiting for Leonardo and Camilla's arrival.

Impatiently the Chairman called for the attention of Dave who stood by his side, overseeing the activities of the busy maids.

He bent his head to the length of the chairman as the chairman spoke.

"Are you sure you informed him about tonight's family dinner?". The chairman asked.

"Of course I did sir. But with the fact that someone who hates lateness like him isn't here, then it's possible that he might have waved it away since he doesn't consider family gatherings in the first place". Dave informed and the chairman clenched his teeth in annoyance.

"Lie! My brother will be here anytime soon, I'm sure something is probably holding him up that's why he's late!". Rosella spat rudely at Dave who flashed her a fake smile, before looking away in agitation.

Then suddenly the sound of Leonardo's sophisticated ride was heard from outside and Rosella smirked at Dave.

"Told you he'd be here". She said to him,

"Oh finally he's here. Now you can finally calm down Mr chairman. There's no need to be mad at your heir anymore". Dave said excitedly to the chairman who just sighed deeply.

The moment Leonardo stepped out of the car his phone rang in his suit's pocket, and he brought it out to check the dialer, he found out that it was no other than Diane.

He frowned when he saw her name displaying on the screen before he finally switched his phone off.

Camila on the other hand was so excited that she would be meeting Rosella, whom she misses even though they saw earlier in school. But she couldn't help it after all, Rosella was her only friend.

Camila made to go in before Leonardo out of the burning excitement she was retaining heavily within her, but the moment she made to take a step further, Leonardo grabbed her wrist and pulled her back, causing her to gasp lightly in shock.

"Now get one thing straight before we go in. You're not allowed to mistakenly reveal to anyone that we haven't seen each other for three months. You'll only speak once you're asked to, but if otherwise don't bother uttering a word so you wouldn't end up selling us out". Leonardo's deep voice said and puzzled Camila had no choice than to gulp down emptiness, down through her esophagus.
