A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

282 Xia’s New Friend

By the pedestrian path, close to the zebra crossing at Linton street, Denise in the perfect disguise of a pretty-looking Sabrina Dove stood patiently, waiting for Xia to arrive.

Her simple but elegant yellow dress paired with red-heeled sandals gave her the distinctive look of a middle-class professional Lady.

She lifted her hand and stared at her wristwatch for the fourth time. It was already 4:50 PM and Xia Chu was no were to be found.

“How can this lady be so rude and unprofessional to keep me standing for almost twenty minutes?

Just when she was about to give up hope and leave, a grey Porsche car pulled over by the corner of the street.

Xia partly stepped out of the car and signaled Denise to come over, before disappearing back into the car.

“What a rude brat?” Denise hissed inwardly as she briskly walked over to the car.

When she observed that the front passenger door of the car was slightly left ajar, she cautiously opened it wide and got in, before closing it behind her.

‘Hi, Sabrina!” Xia beamed innocently. “You look amazing in your outfit, I love it.”

.....

“You too!” The side of Denise’s lips curved into a brief smile. Although, inwardly she was pissed with Xia for keeping her standing for so long.

“I hope I didn’t keep you waiting?” Xia asked innocently as she started the car engine and slowly drove off.

“No, you didn’t, brainless dimwit.” Denise wanted to say. But she just grinned and said, “I’m just grateful that you were able to make it. and I hope we’re able to conclude on time so that I could get back home and prepare dinner.”

Denise stylishly threw her second bait, while she waited patiently for Xia to fall for it.

“Ugh! Don’t worry, dinner will be on me and I insist,” Xia said with an air of pride. “You don’t have to go back home and stress yourself with cooking activities. When we conclude the tour on some few houses that fall within my spec, we could stop by a five-star restaurant, where I’ll give you a special treat.”

“That sounds amazing! Thank you, Miss Chu.” Denise pretended to be overly excited.

While they toured from house to house, Denise created a beautiful and empathetic story about herself. She spoke about a false relationship that she was in, which had semblance to what Xia was currently indulging in. She went as far as saying that her current married lover was planning on leaving his wife for her.

As expected, Xia got excited by Denise’s last statement and decided to open up to her a little about her own relationship.

“You know, people sometimes think that when you’re beautiful and have all the money in the world, men would grovel at your feet and you’ll just make a pick. However, life is not as simple as that. It’s the ones we love that are usually difficult to get.” Xia sighed as the memory of her last encounter with Leon flashed through her mind.

She couldn’t get over the fact that Leon got her all fired up and dropped her ruthlessly on the cold floor without as little as a kiss to ease her rampaging hormones.

Even though she wanted to get mad at him and possibly avoid him, she’d found it impossible. Because all his wicked caressing had got her drooling desperately for him.

“You know, any man who gets to experience a beautiful goddess like you and doesn’t commit immediately should be considered foolish.” Denise pulled Xia from her thoughts with flattery words.

These got Xia beaming from cheek to cheek making her fall prey to Denise’s charms.

After almost one and a half hours of checking out four luxurious houses, Xia declared that she was exhausted and had seen enough houses for the day.

She drove Denise to the five-star restaurant as she promised and they made their individual orders.

“You are such a fun pal to be with, Sabrina.” Xia’s eyes twinkled as she spoke. “It feels like I’ve known you all my life. You are like a friend I never had.”

“Same here, Miss Chu.” Denise returned Xia’s smile with a sly grin.

“You’re free to call me, Xia.” She said authoritatively. “Let’s keep the formality aside so that we can talk freely.”

“Okay Xia, thanks.” Denise took a sip of a glass of wine to smother the amused glint in her eyes.

“So, as I was saying before, this guy that I’m currently in a complicated relationship with, is married just like your boyfriend.”

“Aren’t they all!” Denise hissed. “I don’t know why the things we love are usually unreachable but with things, we dislike are the ones that throw themselves annoyingly at our faces.”

“Exactly!” Xia face twisted into a frown. “I mean, for the first time in my life, I find myself crazily attracted to this guy but he doesn’t even reciprocate my love. He claims to love his wife but I don’t see him flaunting her the way he should.”

“Hmm...” Denise couldn’t help herself from worrying about Ella who was currently listening to Xia talk trash.

“If I may ask, have you ever seen his wife? Because my boyfriend is crazy about me as a result of my beauty when compared to his own wife.” Denise threw her last bait and waited for Xia to come up with specifics.

“You know, that’s the crazy puzzle I haven’t been able to solve.” Xia’s eyes sagged as though she was about to cry.

“I’ve been able to research all about his wife and I discovered that she’s a red hair beauty. Sabrina, you need to see her captivating jade green eyes, how am I supposed to compete with that?”

Denise let out a soft chuckle that didn’t go beyond her throat as rage gradually blinded her. However, Xia was so carried away comparing herself to Ella, that she was oblivious to the dangerous changes in her new friend’s expression.

“You know, If the both of us were to go for a beauty contest, I think she would take the first position. But the only thing that might disqualify her from being crowned the beauty queen, it’s the fact that she’s currently pregnant.”
