I Hate That I Loved You!

25- Susanna's Birthday dinner(1)

Susanna came out of Cruz Corporation Office, she walked towards her car which was parked at a reserved location.

Her PA Lily followed her.

Suddenly her cellphone beeped.
A smile appeared on her face as she read Zain's message.

It was a cute simple birthday wish and dinner reservation details.

She felt excited.

Zain booked a dinner date for them! Usually she has to schedule their lunch and dinner dates.

"Someone looks happy?" her PA Lily commented.

Susanna blushed proudly and squealed "Yes. Zain is taking me out for a birthday dinner. More like a date!"

"Then let's hurry and book you a salon appointment." Lily glanced at her watch and made a quick call to one of the best salons in the city.

Susanna occupied the passenger seat quickly and fastened her seat belt.
"Oh god. Let's hurry."

Lily occupied the driver's side and drove toward the salon.

Susanna's mind was occupied with Zain's thoughts and their upcoming dinner. She hoped for some progress in their relationship now as her Dad has mentioned about the wedding date.

Well, she must look most beautiful for Zain so that he won't pay attention to anyone else tonight.

At Bennetti Group:

Francesco's face sunk after he heard about Zain and Susanna's dinner reservation.

With a sullen expression and puppy eyes, he looked towards Zain
"What I am gonna do alone in the evening? I came to the city for you and you threw me aside like a third wheel?"

Zain looked up to face Francesco. His friend sometimes acts as an attention seeker and a big drama queen.

Zain shook his head "Don't act like an abandoned wife! You can very well go to the 6 Barrel club and I will join you there after my dinner with Susanna."

Francesco's expression took a 180-degree turn immediately.

From sullen to gleeful.

"Bros before hoes!!" He shouted proudly.

Zain shrugged.

Rest of the afternoon passed by quickly.

In the evening, Zain bid goodbye to Francesco and left for La Gustoso.

He reached the restaurant and was guided towards the rooftop.

Zain had confused expressions on his face. He prefers his usual private room. Why they are taking him to the rooftop?

Seeing confused expressions on Zain's face, the manager quickly clarified "Mr. Bennetti, your Assistant has specifically asked us to book something good for birthday dinner for you and your fiancée. This rooftop has a cabana next to swimming pool and a perfect setup for a romantic dinner. We have decorated the place. We sincerely hope your lady will like it."

The manager guided him towards his cabana, bowed and left.

Zain pinched the space between his brow and muttered under his breath "Damn Han!"

He just wanted a simple usual dinner as always. But his good for nothing assistant has overdone it.

Now he was concerned, how Susanna will react to it.

She will be over the moon!

He should feel happy about it but instead, his cunning heart was worried if she will take it more personally.
