My Mischievous Millionaire

Part 21 - Awkward.

This chapter is dedicated to @writersblocksucks16. Thank you for the funny comments! You sure know how to keep a girl laughing! 😂 Also, thank you for voting. It meant the world to me ☺.

Christopher's POV

My phone is beeping like crazy. I gave it a quick glance, thirty messages! I already told her I'm on my way, well, at least she's blowing up my phone and not anyone else's.

I don't know if she is, though. What if she's texting Daytona? There's got to be some sort of spyware to--

Control yourself, Christopher.

I finally pulled up to the hospital. Gift in hand, I walked through the silver and black doors.

"I'm here to pick up Alex Haytham. " I stated to the receptionist. She eyed me up and down, clearly checking me out.

'Calm your tits, lady. I know I'm hot. ' I smugly thought to myself.

"Room forty, Mr Kenway." She replied, in a lovestruck manner.

I walked off, saying nothing. I got into the elevator and made my way to room forty. Once there, I was greeted by an amusing sight.

Alex was jumping about and dancing. Two nurses were trying to stop her but she was far too agile. They told her to take it easy but she was just a bundle of energy.

Shake it off by Taylor Swift was blasting from her phone and she kept singing and dancing.

Once she saw me she ran up to me and gave me a tight hug. She better let go soon, I feel something beginning to wake up.

"You came, Mr Kenway! You didn't let me down!" She happily shouted.

Geez, I'm in front of her. Could she tone it down a bit?

"I wouldn't leave you here-- " I said, causing her to smile.

"--before I forget, here. " I handed her the gift.

She slowly took the box and gave it a shake close to her ear.

"What is it? " she asked, with a wide grin.

"Open it up. " I urged.

She opened the box and began to frantically jump up and down.

"Its so pretty! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I love it! Look at how it sparkles! Look! Are you looking? Can you see how pretty it is!" She exclaimed, all in one breath.

I've never seen a girl act this grateful after I've given them a gift. She's so... new. Weird way to describe someone, but it just feels right.

She'll be property of Christopher Kenway real soon.

Alex's POV

He got me a necklace. It's so pretty, look at all the sparkly diamonds.

"Turn around. " I heard him say while I was admiring my beautiful piece of jewelry. His domineering voice sent shivers down my spine.

I wished it didn't.

I obliged. He gently took the necklace from my hands and moved all my hair to the side, in the process, his fingers gently brushed the nape of my neck.

Why is everything happening so slowly? It's like he wants me to savour his every touch.

I then heard a faint voice coming in louder and louder.

"Alex. Hello-- " It began getting louder and louder.

"Alex, I put the necklace on about a minute ago and you've been staring into space the entire time. " He said, giving me a peculiar look.

"Oh, sorry. Well, let's get going!" I uncomfortably exclaimed.

Noticing my awkward expression, he gave me a little nod and carried my bag.

Seeing a grown man carrying a tiny, pink, Hello Kitty bag caused me to chuckle.

We walked up to his car and he opened the door for me.

"Thank you, Mr Kenway. " I said in a fake, posh tone. Realising my humour, he responded back in a similar tone.

"You're welcome, m'lady. " His weird accent caused me to giggle. I hopped in and waited for him to do the same.

The car ride was strange to say the least, we didn't say a word to each other. I had always hated awkward moments but this moment is just too hard change. I could try to, though.

"So... " I uncomfortably began. "... how's work?"

'Really, you decide to talk about work? The last time you were there he humiliated you.'

My subconscious was actually correct this time. He did humiliate me, I felt a sudden rise of anger but I slowly calmed myself down. I forgave him. There's no use dwelling in the past.

"It's busy as always. It's even harder without you there to help. You were actually quite brilliant. I'd most likely require your services again" He stated with a smile, before quickly glancing at me.

"I don't think your prestigious company would accept whores." I said. I didn't mean to say it, that was the first thing that popped into my head.

"Look Alex, I'm so--" He began before I cut him off.

"Save it, Mr Kenway. " I answered in a respectable tone.

He remained quiet and that's how the entire ride went from then on. We finally stopped at a wondrous place.

It was a fun fare!
