The Billionaire's Trap

Chapter 5

Sophia Pov:

"Yes Jake, I am positive, fine ... no problem. Don't worry I'll do it. And Jake, thank you. I really don't know what I'd do without you".

After hanging up the phone I just thought about my luck, thank God someone had bought my pieces right away; meaning I had extra cash to myself. All I had to do now was to go and deliver them to their house, which was really a bonus for whenever I delivered artifacts they tipped me generously. This week had really kicked off on a very positive note and by now I had completely forgotten about my dilemma and placed Mr. Sexy Grey eyes at the back of my mind and firmly closed the door on him.

I'll take them both" I threw over my shoulder as I was examining the beautiful pieces of art made by Sophia. One was a pot with carvings all around the middle and base painted beautifully. The other one was a mesmerizing whistling water vessel with a twisted neck. Touching them I could almost feel the emotions that poured out of the person while creating these masterpieces. I kept strolling around and surprisingly found other things that interested me.

"When shall I be expecting them?" Asking the over enthusiastic shop owner who was drooling over the amount of stuff I had bought from him, obviously not believing his luck.

"Sir, within two hours they'll all be home delivered" He promised sincerely.

Just imagining my next encounter with Sophia drew a wicked smile on my lips.

"Make sure it's after 9 p:m when he raised his eyebrows I continued I won't be at my house till night.

"Sure thing sir, I completely understand. But don't you worry sir, 9 p:m you'll find them delivered at your doorstep "delivered at my doorstep" which just made me smirk at the irony of his word choice for previously I had decided that I won't choose neither option A, nor B but somehow I always come up with other options to do my bidding. Instead of me giving her a house call it was now the other way around.

Sometimes luck just works on your side!

And

Sophia Anderson I am here to collect and not only, are they the things I bought but also those that are not for sale...yet!

I loaded my small van with all the things that I had to deliver. 45 minutes later I was standing in front of a huge mansion that suddenly made me rethink my choice of wardrobe! Looking down at my worn out faded blue jean shorts and purple crop top just made me realize I wasn't dropping them at some old lady's house but some important and I am sure very judgmental people.

Biting my lip I looked myself in the review mirror and fixed myself, the best that I could do anyways.

At the main Gates I was stopped by guards which just made me more uncomfortable and I kept on chewing my bottom lip.

"Yes? They asked while I flashed them what I hoped a confident smile.

"I am here to drop some artifacts the owner bought from our shop" Which made them both look at me as if I had lost my mind.

"You sure ma'am you have the right address?" The larger guy asked me. I rechecked the address that I had written down from Jake.

"Nope no mistake this is the address" I confirmed still reading the text which had the address.

"Wait a minute" he said while talking to someone on the intercom and soon he came back to me.

Opening the gates "very sorry for the inconvenience ma'am" he genuinely apologized.
