Caesar's Rose

Chapter 40

Raquel took me back to where Mr Caesar was seated. He was busy reading a magazine and sipping wine. I guess they served him well while he was waiting.

He hasn't noticed us yet. Raquel cleared her throat, claiming his attention.

His eyes glued on me.

My heart raced.

He handed his glass of wine to his guard without taking his eyes away from me as he got on his feet, staring at me from head to toe.

My heart couldn't race more than it already is.

He is really staring at me, making me fiddle with my fingers.

"What do you think, sir?" Raquel asked.

"You look...." He trailed off, still staring at me. "oh fuck." He muttered, making Raquel chuckle.

"You are smitten, sir. I can see that." Raquel said.

"I am beyond smitten, Raquel." He said, still looking at me with a smile.

I blushed hard, smiling nervously. His eyes on me are making me very shy.

But I love it.

He moved his hand, giving his guards a sign. One of them handed a card to Raquel.

She walked away, leaving me under his gaze.

"You look very beautiful, baby." He complimented.

Jingles!

I smiled, suppressing the excitement within me.

I want to scream so loud right now. He just called me baby.

On my God!

"Thank you, sir." I said, dropping my gaze slightly.

He reached for my hand, sending electrifying shivers down my spine. He placed a kiss on my knuckle, making me blush hard.

"Here you go, sir," Raquel said, handing over the card and his bodyguard took it.

"Let's go," he said to me.

I nodded slightly.

"Thanks for coming, sir." I heard Raquel say.

"You are welcome." He said to her as we walked away.

Again, he didn't let go of my hand till we got to the car. He opened the backseat door for me and I entered. He walked towards the other side and joined me.

We drove away.

I felt his eyes on me as we drove.

I fiddled with my fingers nervously.

God, he is really staring.

Am I that beautiful?

I love the way he is staring. It gives me a good feeling.

I am so excited.

Not long later, we stopped in front of another building. It has the name, 'Casa Appetit' written at the top of the building.

We got out of the car and headed into the building.

It is super classy.

My jaw can't stay where it is meant to be.

It feels like I am on a trip to fancy world. And with my prince charming.

I am very happy. And the way he is holding my hand? I can't explain the feelings he is giving me. He took me up the wide stairs and we got to a private spot at the wide and beautifully decorated balcony.
