A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

294 Truth Or Dare

Immediately Leon and Lily left the room, Xia saw this as an opportunity to sneak out undetected. Unfortunately, her luck ran out as Ella quickly stopped her.

“Is the party so boring that you’re leaving so soon?” Ella asked as a sly smile danced at the corner of her lips.

Xia froze on the spot and inwardly cursed her unlucky stars. She thought of a suitable reply but her brain went from numb to blank as she stared hopelessly at the one-way entry and exit door.

Tom and Denise who were initially chatting with Ella stared in the direction of the lady she was talking to.

“Who is that?” Tom asked Denise quietly.

“I don’t know.” Denise pretended to be uninterested. “Please, let’s go have some cakes.

Before Tom had time to respond, Denise was already pulling him away, towards the middle of the conference room. She didn’t want him to nose around or intrude on Ella’s private chat with Xia.

Ella on the other hand signaled two glasses of champagne to be brought to her as she walked over to where Xia was standing.

“Here, take this, it will help,” Ella beamed as she carefully placed a glass of champagne in Xia’s slightly trembling hand.

.....

‘What does she mean by, ‘it will help.’ Xia quizzed her panic-induced mind, as Ella’s words made her brain start functioning again.

‘Xia, calm down. She doesn’t know anything and you don’t need to give her any reason for suspicion.’ Xia tried to control her breathing and took a sip of the drink in her hand.

“Thank you very much, Mrs. Treshvire, for the champagne?” Xia faked a smile.

“A big congratulation to your husband on his birthday. The party is awesome, and I would love to stay longer but I have some unfinished work from yesterday,” Lily lied.

“Why don’t you finish that work later on when we’re done with the party, Miss...” Ella drawled for Xia to complete the sentence.

“Miss Xia Chu.” Xia beamed.

“Hmm... What a lovely name for a pretty lady.” Ella spoke sweetly and calmly while taking sips of her drink.

“Thank you, ma’am, and if I may say, you look ravishingly beautiful.” Xia slowly felt her erratically thumping heart calm down due to the serenity of Ella’s voice.

“Aww... You so sweet!” Ella’s eyes sparkled. “By the way, would you mind taking me to your convenience? I’d like to retouch my makeup. I don’t know how much of my lipstick is left after my husband’s assaulting kiss.”

“Umm...” Xia felt her heartbeat pick up from the earlier vigorous tempo.

A few seconds ago, Ella’s subtleness made her feel relaxed. But she had barely started to enjoy the calmness when the mention of the word kiss, crippled her heart once again.

“Miss Chu, are you going to take me to your convenience or do you want me to beg?” Ella asked softly while suppressing the urge to strangle Xia.

“Oh no! Not at all, ma’am! Let’s go to my office.” Xia briskly led the way while Ella calmly followed.

When they got into Xia well furnished and standard executive office, she directed Ella into the ladies’ room.

“Thank you, Miss Chu,” Ella smiled as she gracefully walked into the convenience and shut the door behind her.

She slowly walked towards the wall-mounted mirror and stared at her beautiful reflection.

She inhaled and exhaled to control her breathing as so many evil thoughts possessed her mind.

“Time to take off the mask and excite the b**ch.” A flash of terror crossed Ella’s eyes as she slowly opened her clutch.

She first brought out a dark red lipstick; which was in contrast to the earlier shade she was wearing and applied it generously on her lips.

Afterward, she brought out her golden gun and rechecked to be certain that it was loaded. Still leaving the safety on, she kissed the gun and gently put it back into her clutch.

“Time to set things right.” Ella carefully closed her clutch and stepped out of the convenience.

“Wow!” I love your lipstick Mrs. Treshvire! It’s so bold and daring.” Xia’s eyes shone in excitement as she watched Ella walk towards her couch and sat down like she owned the office.

“Thank you,” Ella smirked devilishly and signaled Xia to come to join her on the double couch.

At first, Xia felt unwilling to honor Ella’s request as she could feel something sinister enveloping the air around them. But after a few friendly persuasion, she joined Ella on the couch.

“Let’s drop the formality and have some girls chit-chat. You can call me Ariella and I’ll call you Xia. Is that okay by you?” Ella asked softly.

“Yes!” Xia replied with a smile.

“Good, tell me a little about yourself.” Ella leaned back and stared into Xia’s twitching eyes.

Xia took in a deep breath to calm her heartbeat and started talking happily about herself, while carefully avoiding Ella’s intense gaze.

“Hmm... Such a lovely story,” Ella interrupted Xia while she was halfway speaking.

Unknown, to Xia, Ella was studying her behavioral pattern when she was telling the truth or lying.

“There’s this game I love playing as a teenager and is so much fun. Would you like to play the game with me? Please!” Ella batted her long curly lashes playfully, making Xia giggle.

“Sure! I would love to! What’s the game called?” Xia asked excitedly.

“It is simply called; truth or dare.” Ella’s eyes sparkled with a deadly glint as the false smile on her face got Xia fooled and nodding to all her wishes like an excited child.

“Wow! I love that game! I also used to play it when I was in high school.” Xia beamed as she thought of the most intimate question to ask Ella.

“Wonderful! I’ll let you go first. You can ask me anything.” Ella said firmly as she stroked her clutch gently.

“Are you sure? I don’t want you getting offended as the CEO’s wife?” Xia’s tone bore a hint of worry.

“Don’t kill the vibe, just ask away,” Ella said impatiently.

“Okay, truth or dare?” Xia asked.

“Truth!” Ella replied curtly.

“Have you slept with any other man aside from your husband?” Xia stared into Ella’s eyes in search of an atom of deceit.

“No! I haven’t, my husband is my first.” Ella said confidently and proudly.

“What!” Xia’s eyes sparkled in amazement.

“My turn, truth or dare?” Ella stressed each word slowly.

“Hmm... I’ve been dared to do so many crazy things in the past. So I’ll go for the truth.”

“Excellent!” Ella held Xia’s gaze and asked, “Are you f**king my husband?”
