New feelings

Authors POV

      After  the  opening ceremony Xander directly headed towards his Penthouse.  Today he had finalizes the deal for his next project with the foreign companies in partnership with Ace.

      Reaching there he went in his room and freshed up . Sitting on the stool he decided to call Angelina while sipping water.

    Today earlier when she called he was a bit surprised coz of her behaviour. She didn't tell him why she called and hanged the call suddenly.

    He tried calling her few times but she didn't respond. He was feeling that something is wrong coz she never ignores his calls and messages.

Is she fine ? he thought

    Finally he went to sleep deciding to meet her tomorrow.

*******

  It's been 3 days since Angelina is ignoring his calls and texts. She even went out of her Appt when he texted that he is coming .

      Xavier was completely clueless about what was wrong with her .

     He arrived at the restaurant where his meeting was arranged with the clients.
They discussed about the project and other important stuff.

      Meeting went on for 2 hours and finally the clients left.  As he was about to exit the door his eyes landed on the beauty sitting alone at the corner table completely busy in her phone.

      He started moving towards her and stood beside her .

  " Hello there Angel " he said startling her

   Angelina didn't expected to see him here , she was avoiding him for last few days but right now he is infront of her and there is no way to escape this situation.

" Umm . Hi " she said slowly

" Can I ask u why u r avoiding me ?" he raised his eyebrow sitting on the chair infront of her.

Angelina took a deep breath and sighned

Before she can say anything she was interrupted by Ivy who arrived back from the  restroom .

  " Mr Black ? What are you doing here" Ivy asked shocked seeing the billionaire sitting on their table

    Xav stiffened he didn't expected that his real identity would be revealed infront of Angelina all of a sudden.
     He had already decided that he would tell her but at the right time and it's not the right time yet.

He slowly moved his eyes from the girl to Angelina .But she didn't seemed shock.

". Don't worry Mr Black I already gottta know about you so no need to fool me any further" she said her eyes showing hurt

" Ivy we should leave Now" she said dragging Ivy who was totally confused out of the restaurant .

        On their way back home Ivy asked Angelina about the previous incident. Angelina told Ivy everything that how he lied about his identity to her while she was always genuine and true with him.

**********
   

     Here Xander don't know how to react the way Angel looked at him made him feel guilty for his deed.

" Why did you lie to her ? Like come on if u had told her ur identity she would be flat for you " Ace said as he is sitting in my office

  " I told you she is different I thought she will treat me differentky if I didn't do it " he replied 

" Oh ! Don't tell she is melting your heart is she ?" he said mischievously

" Shut up its nothing like that ok it's just that she is my friend now also I owe her alot " Xander said unsure of this new feeling he has.

      Xander never ever had such kind of feelings for anyone until he met Angelina, he always thought that women's are just behind a person's money and don't care about anything , but Angelina is different she is not the one chasing money she is simple , sweet, caring , understanding and most importantly a pure soul .

       During these few weeks he really got close to her , he loved spending time with her , listening to her childhood stories and having her beside him.

    But his single lie ruined everything between them .
