City Rulers

CHAPTER 13

Oh so I decided to snoop at Carlos as we wait for the 24 hours.

*Carlos POV*

I could not concentrate on my work after what we had with Cynthia last night and this morning. I can't still believe she actually gave me a chance to be with her.

I smile to my self like a fool, am playing with my pen feeling like not doing any work today.

I actually could careless about  work, I have the biggest network in California. Am the youngest billionaire in this state and three generation after me can still live comfortably without working.

So believe me when I say that am really irritated when I hear a commotion outside my office door.

I quickly get into my office bathroom and dial Cynthia's number. I know its ridiculous but I believe if I hear her voice I could manage whatever am going to get out there.

She's not picking up, why is she not picking up? Did I do something wrong? She was fine this morning.

I could not help but became restless so I dialed her landline and that shy maid Annabel picks. She tells me to wait and I gladly wait.

"Am sorry but she can't come to the phone right now. She's really busy," she says after getting back to me.

"At least tell me she's ok." I say and I don't care that I sound really desperate right about now.

"She's physically fine sir but I don't know what happen because she's really in a bad mood." She whispers.

"Okay I will be there." I talk in a firm voice but before I go to hung up she talks again.

"Sir please don't its something to do with the hood and am sure you are the last person she wants to snap at right now. Please just wait till she calls you." She's begging now and I sigh in defeat. I tell her ok and she quickly thank me before hanging up.

Am already frustrated and you can imagine walking out at finding Claire perfectly seated rocking on the chair.

I roll my eyes, "what do you want now Claire?" I ask clearly irritated.

"My love, am here so we could solve the little misunderstanding we had yesterday." She's comes up and tries to kiss me but I gently push her away.

"Its ok Claire, we are fine." I watch as her face lights up and I almost feel bad for wanting to crush it but I just have to.

"I proposed to Cynthia last night and she said yes. We are getting married in months time." I confidently say. Okay so am treading on dangerous water here because one I know Cynthia will have my head for this and second I might get rejected in the worst way possible and last I might loose what we have.

Am so deep in my thought I don't even realise Claire is out of her chair and so close to me now.

"You will marry her when am dead Williams. You are mine and am not letting some uneducated bitch take my place by your side. Watch me destroy her my love." She states and am so stunned by her confidence. She's not the barbie anymore but rather Rachael. Oh yes I know all of them.

"Dare touch her and I promise you not even hell will hide you from what I will do to you." I equally threaten.

"She's just a fling my love. Once she's out it won't take long for you to forget her."
She smiles at me.

"I dare you." I give her the 'get the fuck out of my office' look.

She smiles again and take her big bag probably carrying her make up and second clothes so she won't walk with  stained clothes.

**************

I pinch the bridge of my nose tired out of my mind.

That meeting was long and boring. Okay maybe it was not that long but having Cynthia on my mind the whole time made it seem long.

I wonder if she's ready to talk now. I search for my phone in my drawers and I look at my screen and smile. Its the picture I took of Cynthia when she was sleeping today. She's just beautiful.

I dial her number and listen in. On the third rings she picks up and I sigh out relieved.

"Hello beautiful,"

"Hey there handsome, sorry I didn't pick your calls in the morning. I had a lot going on when I made it back." She quickly explains.

"Its ok. I just wanted to make sure you were alright. And to ask to see you." I hopefully say.

"Sorry Carlos but I can't right now. Am so busy and I don't want to get distracted." She apologize.

"Please beautiful even just a goodnight kiss I promise I won't take more than five minutes." I press on and I can hear her sigh. I swear I don't want to cause her any more problem than she already has but I miss her badly.

"Okay five minutes and you are gone."

I smile and tell her okay.

The pic above is Claire, I wanted to make her a little evil for the future. Hehehe.
