The Trillionaire's Highest Bid

Chapter 29

Miognette's P.O.V.

I finally finished packing and was able to fill 2 suitcases. I checked my phone and saw it was already midnight. I stretched and yawned.

I decided it was time to go to sleep. I walked to the bathroom and got ready for bed.

A few minutes passed and I was done prepping my skin for bedtime.

I turned the bathroom light off and jumped when I saw a handsome man in glasses reading something on his phone.

"Jesus. What on earth we're you doing in the bathroom?" Gio said as he turned his attention towards me.

"I took a bath. " I said still confused about him being in my bed.

I wrapped my hands around my shoulders awkwardly.

He noticed my weird attitude and smirked.

"You weirded out about me sleeping next to you?"

I felt my cheeks heat up.

"No. I'm not. " I answered still flustered.

I walked towards the other side of the bed and settled myself in. I faced the direction opposite of him.

"Who are you gonna bring for tomorrow?" He said.

"Oh. Thanks for reminding me, it completely left my mind." I said and turned towards him.

My eyes widened when I saw his face. It's so close to mine that I could feel his breath on my cheek.

"WOAH." I sat up

Jesus christ why was his face so close to mine.

"U-um W-when a-a-are you g-going to R-Rome?" I stuttered.

He chuckled at my reaction and sat up.

"Tomorrow. You wanna go with?" He said.

"Yeah. I need to go to the hotel with you if that's okay." I asked timidly.

"Sure. We leave at 11 AM. ."

"Okay." I said and He went in closer to kiss my cheek.

I gave him a shocked look and he just smiled at me. He laid back in bed and turned off the lampshade.

I laid beside him facing the other direction. But to my surprise, he grabbed my hand and pulled me closer to him.

"You're my wife. We're supposed to sleep like a couple not like strangers." He said as he wrapped his arms around me.

I just gave him a chuckle and not a few seconds after I felt my eyelids getting heavy. Then without noticing I dozed off.

The sun hits my face and I felt strong arms around me. I opened my eyes and saw Gio's gentle sleeping face.

I stared at his face and my hand instinctively went to caress his face.

My hand traced his forehead, and then his cheek.

He is a very handsome man indeed. His eyelashes were long, his rosy cheeks, his plump lips, his long pointed nose.

I went in closer to observe his facial features and can't help but think about his soft lips. I went back to the time when he kissed me in the penthouse suite. The feeling of his tongue being intertwined with mine.

My thoughts were cut off when I realized he woke up and just stared at me, smirking.

"You thought about how handsome your husband is?" He teased
