my ruthless husband

chapter 18

        //Christina pov//

The room was filled with silence until Mr Mendez broke the silence by complimenting the way I looked 

"You look lovely , Christina ,your glowing" I slightly blushed I didn't know why but I had to sieze this moment it's not like people always complimented you , especially for my case I never got compliments concerning my beauty,I can't last remember when anyone ever complimented me I guess I was too ugly for compliments

"Thank you"

"Well this is my son Marcus ,Marcus , Christina " Mr Mendez introduces us

I look up and my jaw almost dares to fall out ,my eyes widens at the sight infront of me ,someone please pinch me ,how on earth didn't I realise how handsome not include sexy this guy looked I mean on TV he was handsome alright but up close he was even better

I felt a slight increase on  body temperature ,he looked like a Greek god ,was I going to marry this guy ?,his emerald green eyes pierced though my heart , I didn't want to let my gaze off him ,I couldn't breath anymore I mean he wasn't that close  but he stole my breaths ,is that even possible I swear I was this close to fainting no wonder all those girls fell for him ,he was good looking alright

I stretch my hand towards him to greet him showing  how polite I am but he refuses the gesture when he doesn't do the same ,all he does is glare at my hand as if it was an alien specie trying to greet him ,I retract my hand and pull a strip of my brown dyed hair behind my ear , embarassing

" Well enjoy you two" Mr Mendez says as Marcus starts moving towards the door without saying a single word to me ,I follow after him like a toddler whose trying to walk at the same pace as they mother

He gets into his very expensive black BMW and leaves me standing ,until I decide to get in the passenger seat while he sits in the driver seat ,I guess that was a bad move cause here after nothing special happens

He starts the engine and drives away,I start figiting with my fingers looking for something productive to do,I was bored of the silence in the car I hated the way everything was so quiet and still ,how the only sound that was heard was of a car engine moving swiftly ,the silence was killing me I wasn't a quiet person and I didn't like the fact that I always had to keep quiet

"So...can I switch on the radio ?" I ask with the cutest fake smile I could master but he doesn't reply he rather gives me a killer glare and then looks infront of him

"O.K" I say dragging the word longer as I roll my eyes and look out the window

The car comes to a halt infront of some fancy Spanish restaurant ,how I know that it was a Spanish restaurant  firstly because I couldn't read the name logo   and the reading part had alot of effort  saying it

I come out the car obviously after he does ,then he locks it and moves towards the restaurant again leaving me behind to follow after him ,we get inside and a young handsome waiter directs us to our table ,the restaurant was so formal ,it was pretty with all the black and white effects it had,it was warm I won't lie

We sit down and the same waiter gives us a small book with different food choices. I look at the prices of the food and my eyes are so close to popping out ,I drink some water to digest the bitter truth of the prices of everything here ,I mean what was I going to choose

"So what are you ordering Marcus?" I ask smiling at him,he looks up at me ,clenches his jaw ,and did I forget to state that he had an awesome killer jaw line then he looks down again

Ok I guess that meant order anything ,I order some fancy dish ,cause it sounded complicated to read so I guessed it will be tasty

Our orders final come and am disappointed at what I  see infront of me ,it was stake and some greens,the dish looked pretty ya but only steak and dumb complimenting greens ,I'm upset ,this stupid unrealistic dish was like $600 unbelievable ,I look over to Marcus's dish and he orders a salad ,was he like dieting

"So is it nice ?" I ask a question because right now all we doing is eating and no talking ,he gives me the same reaction as before and continues  eating

I mean don't people come on dates to socialize and know  each other ,this is the  worst date I've ever been too ,I thought I had bad encounters but this was just beyond that

I keep looking for ways  to socialize asking multiple unanswered questions,until I get irritated and now I was going to irritate him back

"So what do you like doing?"

"I don't know ,I like going on dates with girls while I sit down and eat as well as type away on my phone as my date talks her heart out" I start speaking to myself ,he stops what his doing and looks up,he gives me that crazy expression,but I didn't care,cause I didn't waste a whole afternoon for this

"Oh I see ,are you always a d**ck?"

"Oh yes I'm always like this ,it's a rude habit I developed"

"Well I can see that cause right now your behaving as a mute ass"

"No I talk I just don't want to talk to you "

"Well you're irritating now ,are you just going to sit there and do nothing ,say nothing?" Right now I was asking him directly he rises his brow and smirks which drives me crazy how can he smirk in a moment like this ,I was going to marry this idiot but he doesn't even want to talk to me ,one thing about me was I hated it when someone ignored me and acted like I wasn't there,maybe he didn't want to marry me for some reasons I don't know of,trust me I didn't want to marry him either,but he shouldn't ignore me like that , even the world's most shy men would say something or write something ,they won't be typing on they phone while leaving me doing all the talking

I stand up from the table drastically as I look him in the eyes and he surprisingly looks back and storm out the restaurant not before saying a small ignoring 'bye'

I stand out looking for a cab when a car pulls infront of me and it was Marcus, he gives me that 'get in the car ' look ,I get in the passengers seat at the back, I was mad I can't believe I even dressed up for this bull ,I even stressed about wearing good clothing , time and tried socialising with a complete  douchebag ,thinking I could befriend him so that we can find a way out of this whole forced marriage crap

My blood is boiling at the moment ,we reach  home and and I barge out the car as I banged the door  behind me ,I get into the house, while I hear a engine start and a car drive away ,I didn't dare to look back cause I didn't care , I see a really excited Mr Mendez

"So how was it ?" Mr Mendez asks with a huge smile on his face

"It was amazing" I say as I walk up to my room,I wasn't in the mood to tell him how I felt ,how his son treated me like all those b**tches he took on dates
