CHAPTER 53ELENA“Uhm we are talking of a novel that I recently read, Chief chef loves it when I tell him stories about a novel”. I said immediately to distract his attention.“That's true, the old man loves storytelling,” the chief chef said in order to help cover me up. “Well, you should get someone else to do that for you other than my female chef!” Luciano said to him jokingly. I calmed my nerves when I saw that he bought the story. “Where are we starting from?" he said, wrapping his hands around my waist and giving me a kiss on my neck”. This tickled me so well that I tilted my head and it also helped me calm my nerves.“I haven't asked him for all the necessary ingredients, I was going to do that before you walked In,” I said to him.“Or you were going to do that after your story”, I smiled at how quickly he turned the situation. “Well, I guess,” I said to him. “Everything is on the second shelf by your right child,” he said and left the kitchen quickly. I guess Luciano scare
CHAPTER 54“Elena,” the chef finally said. “You all earned your spot to enter the next stage, congratulations”. I felt tears of joy leaving my eyes but I immediately wiped them off so they wouldn't be noticed by others. After class, I walked out to the parking lot where my driver was patiently waiting for me.I entered the car and we drove back home, when I got into the hallway I began to act sad, so one would think I failed. I came across a maid and stopped her to ask her a question. “Hello,” I said to her “Is the don home?” I asked curiously “Ma'am he got back a few minutes ago” she replied politely. I gave a nod and said, “Thank you”.I walked towards the left wing, I wanted to see him. I got to his door and knocked “come In” I heard him say so I opened the door and walked in.I looked at him with a sad face, “How did your day go, Lu” still holding up my sad look. But he didn't reply to my question; he was rather concerned with my mood. “What is the wrong darling? Why are you sa
CHAPTER 55LUCIANOThe pilot called me while we were still in the hallway. I picked up the call on the second ring“Hello Don, good morning to you”“Good morning pilot, what is your call this morning for?”“Sir while I was checking the jet to ensure that everything was in order I discovered that there was a little fault at the control panel”“What!!” I exclaimed at the information I just received “It is not safe to drive with something of that sort so I advise you to take an airplane to Phuket, I got my friend to reserve 2 seats for yourself and your woman in business class”. “My apologies for the inconvenience that this might cause you”. He said conclusively.“Get me the tickets in the next 10 minutes, otherwise you are fired”. I said and ended the call.I turned to Elena who was confused as to why I exclaimed, “My jet developed a little issue and it is not safe to fly for now. So for today we will be flying business class, it's not enough but we don't have a choice”.“Let's move,
CHAPTER 56ELENA I felt light shine brightly on me even while I was still asleep. I subconsciously knew that it was time I woke up, so I slowly opened up my eyes till my eyes were opened to find a pair of bright blue colour eyes looking at me in admiration. I loved the way he looked at me like I was the only sweet thing in the world at the moment. “Good morning” I greeted him with a smile on my face “Good morning my angel, did you sleep well?” he asked me to be sure he did a good job through the night. “Yes I did” I replied to him, “what about you baby” I asked him and raised my hands to his cheeks, massaging my cheeks. “I did my darling,” he replied. While still looking at me “You are a dazzling beauty, my love, I'm so lucky” he said with a grin. I smiled at his comment and ran my fingers on his cheeks slowly,“Aww baby,” I said while my face reddened. “I'm the luckiest to be yours. I'm grateful that I got auctioned into your mansion and arms”He rubbed his nose on mine and smi
CHAPTER 57ELENAI asked angrily while I tried turning around to see if anyone from the back threw the stone at me. I turned around to find surprisingly Gigi and Franco at our back.“I'll send another stone flying at you if you open your mouth again to shout”. Gigi shouted from where she was so I could hear and understand her. I smiled at the silly Gigi and turned towards Luciano, “You planned this also?” I asked him with a smile.“Yes” he replied and this made me smile more, I ran to where he was standing and hugged him which he reciprocated, I kissed him on the lips, “thank you, Baby,” I said, and let him be. I ran towards Gigi while she also ran towards me, we met in between and hugged each other tightly. “I'm so happy that you are here bestie”. I said to her“But hold on, are you guys together? How come you came together with him?” I asked her. She was all flushed by my question and smiled.“Well…. Yes but only recently, I'll gist you later” she said to me and hugged me tightly,
CHAPTER 58LUCIANOGigi was so excited when the limousine was driven in by the driver. “Here it is!!” she said so excited. She put the remaining meal in her plate into her mouth quickly and tapped Franco, “Let’s go get dressed Hun” she said to Franco. They stood up from the dining table “Later Lena” Gigi said and they left our apartment into their own. I turned to Elena, “Darling you should go get ready, meanwhile hold on” I said, I went to the bar and brought out the dress I got her for the party, the driver left there because he knew better not to go further pass the boundaries of the bar. I handed it over to her, “here is your dress for the night” I told her and she giggled at me. “You didn't need to darling” “Oh I need to,” I said to her. “I need my woman to look breathtaking when we step into that club”.She walked into the room with the dress in her hand while I followed behind her, she looked back at me and slammed the door, she opened it again and peeked out her head, “Oh
CHAPTER 59LUCIANOI put her down only to find out that she was already asleep “is this lady fucking kidding me!!” I said out loud with frustration written on it. But then when I took a proper look at her face, she was so innocent and pretty while she slept, that alone made my frustration go down the drain. I picked her up again and took her to the car. I called Franco to inform him that I was about to drive home. After the 3rd ring, Franco picked up the call “Hello Don” he said over the phone,“Elena is asleep and we are in the car currently, are you guys up to go home now?” I asked him to know if I would wait a bit longer for them to join us or to go home with my woman. “Don, it's still 1 am, we ain't ready to go home yet” Franco explained and that settled it.“Okay I'd go home first, you guys make sure to have fun” That ended the call and dropped my phone. Elena turned and laid her head on my lap, and let out a slight sound. I put my hands on her hair and played with it for som
CHAPTER 60ELENA“What do you want to talk about Chris?” I asked me unapologetically. I've been trying to avoid this conversation for a long time back in Chicago but it's evident now that it's better to talk about it now, Chris seems to be more persistent and I need to clear the air to avoid future occurrences. “Why are you so persistent about wanting to have a conversation? Are you trying to make peace with me so I'd no longer be mad at you?” I asked him.“I want you back!!” he said to me. Now this was like a bomb dropped on my body unaware, it exploded and tried to shatter me. Is this guy crazy? I asked myself. After acting like I never existed he comes back a few years later to tell me that he wants me back. That's the height of unseriousness for me!!“What do you take me for!!” I said out loud to his hearing, this guy was beginning to irritate me. “Do you see me as a toy, you play around with it, then you drop it in a dark room and expect to pick it up whenever you return?!!”“F
