The Girl He Ever Wanted{Unedited}

Chapter 17

"Oh... I see. Why not I come with you then? After all I'm your fiancé." Sylvia suggested with a smug on her face.

"What?!". Ray exclaimed.

"Yeah. Any problem? Can't I come with you to the gathering?". Sylvia asked on her end.

Ray was mute. He ran his fingers through his hair with confusion. "I... Well, there's no problem but the thing is you can't come with me." He finally said with nervousness.

"But why?". Sylvia questioned.

Ray grunt inwardly. 'What should I say now for her to believe me?' He thought deeply and then an idea hit him. "Okay, fine! I'll come to your place instead. But I want you to know that I won't stay long. I'll stay just an hour with you before going to the gathering. Is that OK?". He asked.

Sylvia was surprise at his decision. 'Why'd he prefer to come to my place rather than allowing me to go with him? I think something is been fishy here'. She thought and sigh heavily. "OK...it's fine. I'll be expecting you." She replied quietly.

"Alright. See you soon." He said and hanged up.
"I think is time for me to tell her what she needs to know. I don't want to hurt her feelings, I don't want to embarrass her on that day,she doesn't deserved to be treated that way even if I don't love her. This really has to be sorted out." He thought out loud and started dressing up.

He put on his orange shirt and a blue jeans with his white converse and then took out his car key and his wallet and phone and headed out of the room. He went to his parents room and told them to go ahead of him that he'll join them later at the party.

Thirty minutes later he was at Sylvia's apartment. He got out of his car which he had packed in the compound and walked to the front door. After knocking twice, the door was opened and Sylvia stood there smiling at Ray. She kissed him on the cheek and said. "Come on in", which Ray did and she locked the door thereafter.

"I'm so happy to see you. I wish you could stay for more than an hour. Can't you just forget about that gathering and spend sometime with me?". Sylvia asked with a frown and a pout.

"Ugh. No. I really need to be there. You know I'm part of the reasons why the contract was signed, it will be unfair not to honor the invitation." Ray replied.

"Oh. OK. If you say so. Come over to the dinning table, I ordered something's for us to eat. And most of all,I bought your favorite wine." She said with a grin.

"Oh. You really didn't have to go through that stress you know. Well,I'll have no choice but to take part of it since you've gone through the trouble of arranging it for me." He replied and followed right behind her.

She paused her steps and turned to face him. She placed one hand on his neck and the other hand on his chest. "What about if we do a little stuff before enjoying the meal?". She asked in a sexy tone using her fingers to trace his chest.

Ray stared at her with a furrowed brow. He wasn't expecting that from her right now. Although they've been together for two years but he hasn't had sex with her despite the fact that she's always seducing him. He had never for once taken advantage of her which makes Sylvia at times wonders if he's really a man.

Ray flinched from her and said.
"C'mon Sylv, its not the right time to do this,I'm sure you know it."

"Oh,please. Just stop it,what kind of man are you anyways? You're always like that whenever I want you to do this with me. Or do you have someone else you're having sex with that makes you this uptight with me?". She questioned glaring at him.

"No. Why should you say that? The fact I don't have sex with you doesn't mean I'm doing it with someone else. I just don't want to take advantage of you. Try and understand me." He answered.
