CHAPTER 13

...Voila's Pov...

The most evident drawback of alcohol is the hangover cause my head hurts bad. As I stood up I saw a glass of lemonade beside my bed with a note that said, have this you'll feel better I smiled seeing this sweet gesture, Aunty Lizzy is such a considerate woman. As I lazily went down stairs Evy sat there as if she's lost somewhere I asked her if she's okay she told me "Via we were at wrong yesterday I asked someone to investigate about the bar we went yesterday and you'll be shocked to know that the bar was not a safe one that is included in smuggling and trafficking shit if we have stayed there any longer we might have put our life in danger if people have recognized us there we would have made a tough situation for us although you won't appreciate but the boys indirectly saved us but I am wondering how did they find out that we were there" Listening to the information Evy shared I started feeling dizzy again it's no way possible that Cliff and Sky reachd their just to save us but I'm admant to clear the mess that I have made yesterday I got ready, took my morning mug, skipped breakfast as usual and planned to meet Cliff and Sky to give our apologies to them on behalf of me and Evy. I also asked Evy to come along with me but she said she don't want to face both of them so I decided to go alone cause I have to finalize the deal with them and due to this crap I do not want it to be dismissed. My dream of opening a caffe is bigger than the fact that I'm not a person who regret things and apologizes, actually people say be a bigger person and learn to apologize but I don't like to obey that crap why should we be apologetic always, but today I have to, when I told my father that I want to open a Caffe here he put his sources and he told me that Cliff's father himself told him that his son has property in L.A so I decided to meet him and see we are here today in this mess, whatever it is I won't disappoint my father and uncle Everhart I'll let this deal happen and I'll walk off clean no buisness no matter no grudge with that thunderstorm personality. I'll won't stay anywhere near him. I won't.

I thought baking would help me in getting mentally prepared to meet Sky and Mr. Arrogant so I baked some choclate muffins, Aunty Lizzy suggested that I should take some muffins for them along with me, then I realised Cliff won't eat chocolate muffins so I baked some with Vanilla stuffing for him.

I stood near Cliff's mansion holding the muffin box in hand waiting for the guard to allow me to enter he asked me to wait saying that "Sir has came back an hour ago and also he do not entertain any woman in his house so I need to confirm" that made me doubt I cannot believe people that work under Cliff, the guard came back surprised and said "sir allowed you to come inside and mam apologies for keep you waiting"
As I followed the guard towards the second gate Sky opened the door and welcomed me inside and asked while walking me inside "How're you" I replied rudely "still alive" then he inquired "How's Evy" I replied "how you left her yesterday" Sky retorted "Can you behave little polietly?" I moved my head in a big No. And we continued walking as we reached to the drawing room I saw Cliff sitting on a couch with a laptop on his lap he looked at me curiously Sky settled me in one of the sofa and sat on the other one opposite to mine, he stared at me like he's preparing himself for something I'm gonna say. I put an end to the uneasy air and said "firstly i would like to apologize that we troubled you yesterday we never knew that the place was unsafe thank you to bring us back safely but we were having our driver along with us he could've brought us back we were just trying to have fun ,and I just wanted to question that how did you knew that we were there" Sky diverted the discussion and asked "what's in that box" I handed over the box to him and said "sorry I've brought some self made muffins for you as an apology, choclate one for you and vanilla one for Cliff" he thanked me and asked the servant to serve the muffins. Cliff also ordered the servant "Prepare breakfast for her" I tried to retort saying "i have already taken it" Cliff got up and sat beside me and said "You're not good at lying" I said to Sky "please do not distract me and tell me how did you know that we were there. He answered "What was the name of the bar?" I thought for a second cause I have a bad memory then I told "Above you" he asked "What is above you?" I honestly answered "Ceiling" Cliff laughed hard and Sky groaned "Silly girl what was above you when you read the name of the bar yesterday" I joked "That time only stupidness was over me" he gave a look and said "Logical answer please" I thought for a second and then it hit Above me.. is Sky.. I yelled "You own the bar" he hummed and continued "And I got a call that some traitors got in". I gave him a glare he suddenly got up and sat near my foot and gently said "Do you know I've lost someone who was very dear to me, that's why I wanna keep you safe " That made sense it's the reason he's so protective for me I took his hand and said "Why did you aimed at me then?" He replied with a short breath "there wa no other way to tame you lady you were wild" I retorted "you dumbass aimed at my bestfriend too" he huffed "I know you already know that I like Evy, but I have shit to fix until that I want to keep my feelings inside I couldn't compromise with her safety and also the gun wasn'tloadedI can never think about harming you". I patted his back and muttered "I'm so glad" he asked me to keep it a promise until he's prepared and I agreed. I hugged him and said "I'll always be the big sister to you although I'm smaller" his eyes filled with tears while mine started dripping he mumbled "You'll stain my shirt" I retorted "I'll buy a new one". He playfully said "Noted". He left saying he'll change cause he'll come to drop me, and Now I was alone with Cliff my breakfast came cereals with caramel and strawberry, I guess the servants here are quick learners.

Cliff broke the silence and said "Are you okay?" I replied "Yes absolutely" and zi awkwardly added "Why did you came there" he thought for a second and replied "I need to protect my best friends future wife and her bestie too" I hummed and continued. The awkward silence shatter when Sky came down and flirtiously grinned "Let's get going My lady" I took his arm and said "I'm going to thank and apologize to Hans do you want to come along" "Anywhere my lady" he said. Cliff retorted "You won't go to him" I gave a questioning look "Why??" He replied "You won't" he stood up and said "Do you know nobody disobeys me" I grinned "Well I'll be the first one in line" he gave a look to Sky so I held Sky's hand even tighter and said "Sky let's break the algorithm, cause no one tells me what to do". I halted my steps in the way and said "We have to finalize the deal sooner so meet you tomorrow afternoon Mr. Everhart" He smiled lightly and I threw a flying kiss his way and said "See you" He muttered "Questa donna è un problema reale" ((This woman is a actual trouble)) and I am pretty sure that he is cursing. So I barked "curses don't work in other languages try cursing in my language maybe it'll work" He smiled for a split second and said "get going pretty lady or you want me to pick you up and throw you out". I cursed "as I'm dying to stick around you" with this I left atleast my mind would not feel heavy now.
