Billionaire’s Most Wanted Bride

_At Brenda’s apartment_

Eva’s POV

I put the key I got from my office into the lock in Brenda’s house. I unlocked it and entered. ” Bitch ” I shouted. That was an informal way we both address ourselves.

“Eva ! is that you? ” I heard her voice from the kitchen. She came out quickly and gave me a big hug.

” The way you barge into my house scares me, ” she said and looked at me from head to toe.

” If that is the case, you won’t have given me your spare key!” I mocked

” Give it back then! ”

” Give it back then” I mimicked carefully placing the key back in my handbag. She looked carefully at me with a worried face. I was exhausted and my face was showing it.

” Okay, what’s going on? Omg, they are not shutting you down, are they? Because of… What’s up with you girl, I know that face You look so … should I say depressed or exhausted” she was talking too fast. I know she is sincerely worried about me.

” Calm down Brenda, it’s just the chairman,” I said. She flopped into the chair, calmer and relieved. The problem with me and my father is something she knows every scratch of.

” What’s the condition? Is it getting worst? Or did he arrange a marriage against your wish? … ”

” Dad won’t let me be until I get him a Son- in law. ” I replied with a sigh.

” Another blind date? I thought it was over after Chris. She asked in amusement. Chris was the first guy I went on a blind date with. It’s still embarrassing to me, how I treated him. I think the rude and arrogant brat deserved it. He was acting up as if he owns the earth. I just gave him a tip from my insanity.

” I really pity you, my friend. I know how hard it is” Brenda said , suffocating me with a tight hug.

“If you really do, then go on my behalf” I voiced out.

“Yes I will…Wait what??? She stuttered in surprise immediately she understood what I said. I really meant it. If I could see someone that would go instead, I was even ready to pay any amount. She untighten her grip from the hug and moved to the couch opposite mine.

” Brenda please” I pleaded this time, but that was nonsense. They say birds of the same feather flock together. Brenda and I have been single for a long while now . How would she go on a date, Something I hated so much, she might hate that as well. Maybe I was being selfish. Just as I was about to apologize, she accepted that she would go.

” Okay , I will . But just this once . Not ever again ”

” I promise”. I jumped over to her sit and tightened her with a huge hug.

“And what should I do, should I ruin it or…” She asked

” It’s your date now honey, you can do whatever you wish to but once he calls back, my dear you are going to marry him and not me . ” I said with a smirk on my face.

I helped her get ready . She wore a red long sexy gown. She styled her black wavy hair to look extra beautiful. Her brown eyes are bright-lidded and cat-like. Her thin lips and straight pointed nose fit perfectly to her oval face. Her skin is flawless and light. I always admire her beauty especially when she has a light makeup which she does now.

” You look perfect for a real couples date. I’m worried that he won’t stop thinking of you just by seeing your face today”. I said as I did a finishing touch to her makeup. She smirked.

I drove her to the honey hotel and gave her his number. Whoever it was , I didn’t know, and I didn’t care… ” Give me a call I will come to pick you up . Don’t let him find your apartment by driving you home” I said and bided her goodbye.

” Thank you,” she said , a little panicked.

**_Brenda’s POV_**

I entered the exquisite hotel and looked around for the man in the picture Eva showed me earlier from her iPhone. He wasn’t there . Head swiveled to watch me as I wafted to the outdoor table.

About thirty minutes later, he arrived. He stood at the entrance dialing a number from his phone. I knew it was Eva he was calling so I acted fast. I called him with the number Eva had given me . ” Over here” I said waving my hands . he dropped his phone back into his side pocket and headed towards me.

” My name is Michael,” he said extending his right hand for a handshake.

Michael was an exotic treat with his fine features. His white skin fitted perfectly to the sky blue classical suit he was putting on. He left his hair short and black, all curled to the back.

” You look lovely,” he said as he sat on the chair directly facing mine. I smiled shyly. For some reason I was already falling for his looks and polite manner. What if he is being nice to me because he thinks I’m Eva ‘the most wanted bride’?

” What did you expect me to look like,” I asked , trying to be as rude as I could afford to be. Our eyes met for a second . It was an intimate look for two people that hardly know each other.

” What would you like to order?” The waiter arrived, interrupting the uncomfortable look. I looked at Michael to make an order . After staring at the menu for some seconds he finally made a choice.

” I will have anything she does” he said with a faint smile. I couldn’t stop myself from falling for that too. ” You are meant to ruin this Brenda, don’t be easily swayed, ” I said to myself. I had to keep in mind that I am Eva and not Brenda at that moment.

” Just a cup of coffee ” I said to the waiter .

” Two plates of lasagna as well”. He said to the waiter as he was about to leave . Lasagna is one of the most famous kind of pasta. It’s made only by AB food , Chairman Huxley ‘s company. He must have ordered that to impress Eva. I was surely impressed. I always crave for that recipe.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
