My Naughty Lover ✔️

Chapter 44

Scarlette's Pov

After my long thoughtful bath, I wrap myself with a white towel which was kept on the shelf and I head into the cold room. I start shivering as my teeth starts to chatter. Oh shit! I left the AC on. I quickly look for the remote control but I cannot find it on the tables nor on the bed. Where is it? Shit! It's so freaking cold! I look under the pillow and magically! It's there! How did I know it was under the pillow?? It's one of my bad habits. I always do this. I don't know why. Everytime I lose my phone or my diary, when I do my bed the next morning, I find them coincidently.  Ouff, so cold..

I open the closet and I'm amazed to see all of these expensive brands. Dad bought all the expensive clothes but I don't really wear these type of clothes so I end up closing the closet and I open my suitcase which the chauffeur had left in the room. I take out a long skirt and a long blouse which I wear. After that I put my hair into a high ponytail and I decide to go downstairs.

I descend the stairs and I observe my surrounding. There are many portraits on the wall which are very beautiful. Once, I'm downstairs I look at all these beautiful furnitures that dad possesses. There is a big chimney in the living room and a shelves of books. It looks so peaceful and refreshing. I also notice some photo frames which I look at. There are some pictures of a little kid. I look carefully and then it clicks my mind that this little kid is me. I grab the frame and I look attentively. It's a picture of me holding an ice-cream and I'm laughing hard in it. I place the photo back to its place and I grab another one. This one is a picture of me, my mother and my dad. This was taken in a park and we were all laying down and we were smiling. This picture brings back so much memory. I caress the photo and I smile. How i wish we would be like this forever.

"Miss, you're here." I'm startled by a familiar voice. I turn around and I see that lady who showed me my room.

"Oh dear, are you okay?" she says while approaching me.

"Oh yes, I'm fine." I smile while placing the frame back on the shelf.

"Why are you crying dear?" she asks. I put my hand to my eyes and I notice droplets. Damn I didn't realise that i was crying.

"Oh it's just that I recalled some memories." I say while wiping my tears.

"Oh dear." she says while patting me on the shoulders. "You're such a sweet girl." she says.

"Thank you. You're nice too." I smile at her.

"Follow me to the dining room. It's already lunch time. Sir will join us in soon." she says leading me to a hall. There is a long table in the middle and flowers in every cornor. The dining room is big. The table is already set up. There are some people who are bringing food to the table. I take a seat and I look around. Here also there are some portraits but they are small compared to the ones upstairs. There is also a picture of an old woman who looks just like my grandmother.

"Bonsoir, poupée." ( Good evening, doll.)  someone says while wrapping their arms around me.

I turn around and I notice my dad. His green eyes just like mine, are shining happily. His hair is becoming grey and he has taken some weight unlike before and he seems in form. He looks different indeed. He is wearing a black suit and he looks just like a high class person. It's astonishing after all. I used to see him in casual clothes looking for jobs everywhere and now look at him. This man standing in front of me now seems like a completely different person. But it's in a good way though. His face is very fresh and he looks handsome. Haha. I'm smiling just as I think about my father being handsome.

I snake my arms around him and I appreciate that moment that we are having. I missed him so much.

"I missed you dad." I say.

"Me too." he says while caressing my head.

"Thank you.." I say.

"Let's have lunch for now." he says while smiling.

"Yes." I smile back.
