Chapter 34 Family Dinner 5

  His face was totally dark, and the cold aura emanating from him sent shivers to my body. I've seen Alex angry before but I haven't seen him this angry. I closed my eyes tight preparing myself mentally for what's about to happen.

I waited and waited but nothing happened, I opened my one eyes slowly scared of what I would see, but I saw nothing. I opened my eyes fully this time and let out a sigh of relief touching my chest lightly.

I darted my gaze around the room, but could not find Alex anywhere in the room, Did he go out? I walked into the bathroom watching my steps so I would not be heard, but he was not there either. I opened the closet slowly, so as not to make a sound, but still could not find anyone.

I felt fully relieved, I settled on the sofa comfortably, and just then my gaze fell on the document on the table, a flower and a red package. I wondered where they came from till I recalled Gaius presenting them to me this morning, but I was too eager to go out and asked Gaius to keep them here.

I looked at the items on the table with curiosity, since that other once we're visible, I went for the red package first. I opened it and found my baby inside it. It's been so long I touched her, I kissed her many times before finally turning on my cellphone.

I was shocked by the calls and text massages I've recieved in the past few weeks. I wasn't able to call Mika after leaving her house without a word. I know she must have been worried, I just didn't think I'd come back to this house after trying to runaway.

I opened the files, like I thought our agreement, I signed the documents and arranged them back on the table. Picked the flower and played with it for a while, before placing it back on the table.

I sighed looking at the time which was already 5:pm, our dinner was by six. I couldn't believe Carie made me spend the whole day shopping, without getting something to eat. I was starving but lost my appetite thinking of the Family dinner. I rambled into the bathroom for a quick bath.

I walked into the closet when I was done but what I saw startled me, Elena and her girls were already in the closet with their equipment ready to doll me up. I rolled my eyes at this, I hate make up, it makes me feel so uncomfortable.

I sat in front of the dressing mirror after wearing my purple sleeveless, round neck flay dress, resting slightly above my knee. Elena stretched my hair before rolling it into curls, after my make up. I made sure it was a light make up with no false lashes this time since I'm already blessed with long lashes.

Another maid brought out my six inches heels and wore it on my legs, immediately, the door clicked open and Alex walked in, he was wearing a black exquisite suit. I don't think I'd ever get tired of telling just how handsome Alex is. He walked in quietly making all the ladies in the room droll.
