Caesar's Rose

Chapter 75

🌹ROSE🌹

His eyes are giving me a weird feeling right now. I do miss him, but I don't know if I want to see him.

And not here in front of my school! What is with him?

"You don't look happy to see me," he said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

He raised his brows. "It's been a week. Don't you miss me?"

I looked away from him, feeling my heart reacting.

"Rose,"

I dropped my gaze on my fingers, ignoring his call.

"Smith," he called.

"Yes, sir?"

"Let's go," he ordered.

"Okay, sir." Smith said, starting the car and we hit the road.

I looked at my side of the window as we drove. I felt uneasy because of his presence and I could feel his eyes on me.

God, why is he here? I am not ready to see him yet.

I am still upset. Why can't he understand that?

"You look beautiful, by the way," he said, making my heart flutter.

"Thank you," I muttered, looking at him momentarily.

He slightly sucked on his teeth.

"I thought you would have forgiven me by now," he said.

I looked out the window.

"But I guess not. You can't even look at me." He said, sounding offended.

My heart reacted again.

"How was school today?" He asked, making CJ come into my mind instantly. The way he saved me from getting hurt on the stage was.....

"Did you have fun?" He asked, snapping me off my thoughts.

I nodded.

The car stopped, making me look around, and I realized we were in the middle of nowhere. Not houses or cars or people walking around.

Not bushes too.

It is just a field. My heart pounded.

I furrowed my brows, feeling my heart picking up.

What the....where are we?

"Excuse us, Smith," he ordered.

"Yes, sir," Smith said and got out of the car, leaving just Mr Caesar and i in the car.

I felt my uneasiness increasing.

What is he trying to do?

"Rose,"

I looked at him.

"I want to...."

"Why are we here? What place is this?" I retorted nervously.

"This is one of my lands in the city, baby,"

"Why are we here?"

"I want us to talk."

I scoffed in disbelief. "That's why you brought me here? Just to talk?"

"You seemed uncomfortable at your school and I guess the same with people around. This place is the only place I could think of."

"I want to go home, please." I said without looking at him.

"I will take you home after we settle our differences."
