CHAPTER 26

AMETHYST'S P.O.V

NO!

NO!

NO!

"Amie, this is my brother." Brother?

Si crazy Red Ferrari is... Jeremy's brother? So that makes him... Jerome's brother?

Sapphire's brother in-law? Family?

NO!

I looked down at his hand held out in front of me for a handshake.

Bukan saja tangan saya sejuk macam ais dan menggeletar, lutut saya turut menggeletar juga.

Oh God! Buduh kau, Amie! Jangan kau tengok dia senyum. Kurang ajar dia mau senyum-senyum macam sengaja saja dia sana. Saya tau lah kau tau kau handsome! Jangan juga terlampau sengaja. ish, buduh oh saya mengaku yang dia handsome.

And he forced a handshake!

"Jeremiah... Ashburn." He said out his name.

JEREMIAH.

JEREMIAH ASHBURN.

Crazy Red Ferrari has a name. Impressive. Hahahaha.

Kenapalah nasib saya malang betul ni? Saya sangka saya aman sudah dari lelaki gila yang tidak habis-habis mengganggu kehidupan saya masa saya di Sydney.

Macam mana boleh jadi begini?

Why is it so coincidental that si crazy Red Ferrari is one of the Ashburns? Ramai-ramai lelaki Sabahan di Sydney, Australia, why must it be him?

Then he leaned down very close to me. Stupid me, I stood there frozen.

I can hear his voice low and husky just inches away from my ear.

"Kau masih ingat saya?" I can hear him smirking. "Hmmm, sayang?"

I bit on my lower lip, trying to stop myself from making a scene in front of everyone present.

"Kenapa muka kau pucat, hmmm?" ish! Tolonglah stay away from me.

I feel like screaming. Sudahlah I can suddenly feel my butterflies in my stomach everytime his breath is in my ear.

I took a deep breath.

Exhale.

"Jeremiah, hi." Saya mengukirkan senyuman saya yang termanis. Semanis gula biar sampai dia kena kencing manis. Hahahahaha. "We haven't met. Weren't you supposed to be in KL for the conference with Jeremy?"

I saw Jeremy covering his mouth. Is he laughing? Pelik. Entah apa yang lucu.

Ya, I've confronted Sapphire just to confirm Jerome tiada terbang to KL for the conference. I know the staffs mentioned there were 2 Ashburns dan satu berambut panjang. And I know Jerome and Jeremy Ashburn berambut pendek.

But I never asked, and Sapphire never told me who was the 3rd brother yang langsung saya tidak nampak batang hidung dia di ACP Group mahupun at the conference.

Saya pura-pura menatap penuh minat lelaki di depan saya sekarang. Ah, pura-pura bah saya tu. Mana ada betul-betul penuh minat.

Two can play this game, right, Ashburn?

Belum bah saya mau tambah perisa pada kata-kata saya, ada yang mencelah.

"Amie, you want me to drive you back home atau the resort?" Austen, kawan saya masa zaman sekolah dulu tergur saya. "You mau get ready for the reception sudah ni."

Well, the reception starts at 6pm.

I looked at my silver Swarovzski writh watch with Amethyst crystals.
