Rift in the perfect picture

The dress Nicholas had prepared for me wasn’t inside the room.

The hotel collaborated with over 200 brands, and the .irst floor was filled with different luxury shops. But when the butler brought me over, there wasn’t a single person in sight.

“You can take your time to look around the place. Mr. Hawk cleared the floor in advance. You can just take and wear whatever you like to meet with Mr. Hawk when you go on your date later.”

The butler was wearing a white glove as he lifted his hand, did a thumbs–up gesture, and smiled smugly, making me want to hit him.

I chose a long purple dress. The upper part of the dress was a tight tube that had a slit going right down to my belly button.

The soft silk flowed down from my waist, and there were beautiful flowers embroidered into the bottom half of the skirt that would move along with the wind as I walked. It made me look beautiful and

sexy.

I dressed myself up beautifully, thinking I would be the most beautiful person in the room. But the second I saw Nicholas, I felt like time had stopped.

Under the dim lights, Nicholas stood tall and straight in his fitting. suit. He wore a tie, while his shoes had been polished to a shine.. The second he reached his hand out toward me; I felt like I had been

thrown into a dark abyss.

My heart beat wildly, just like it did many years ago when I would wait by the wall for a whole day just to see him pass the road in front of me.

“I don’t know what the perfect date looks like, but I want to take your on one “He smiled lightly as he spoke. But it looked like he was. waiting for me to compliment him.

“You’re the most handsome thing ever.”

I wasn’t lying. He was so handsome that I could not look away. Even the lobsters on the table paled in comparison to Nicholas.

“Mrs. Hawk, you’re so shallow.” Nicholas was dissatisfied.

“You’re much more appetizing than those lobsters over there.”

My cheeks were flushed. I didn’t want to eat any lobsters. I wanted. to eat something else.

Nicholas lips curved into a smirk. He seemed to have read my mind. as he cut a piece of lobster meat and placed it on my plate.

Fill your stomach first.” Then, he lowered his voice and said, “I don’t want you to go hungry later tonight

I copied his expression and smiled charmingly. Using a tone that only the two of us would be able to hear, I said, “Then why don’t you feed me.”

As I spoke, I wrapped my legs around his under the table. Nicholas exhaled as he sat straighter. Then, he placed more food on my plate and said, “Eat!

“Alright,” I answered happily.

I wanted to tease him. So when he thought I was finally going to start eating. I placed my fork down, got up, and walked to his side. Then, I bent down and kissed him on his cheek.

I looked at him sincerely as I said, “Thank you for today. You put a

lot of thought into it, and I love it.”

Nicholas looked at me intensely and wrapped an arm around my waist. He placed me on his legs and gritted, “Let’s not eat anymore and get straight into it.”

Like magic, he took out a necklace from nowhere and placed it around my neck before I could get a better look. There’s no need to look at it now. You’ll have plenty of time to look later!”

He seemed very hurried as he clapped his hands and someone immediately brought a tablet and stylus over. The document was the agreement for me to sell my shares in Jones Corporation.

“Sign here, and the transfer of shares will be immediate.”

At that moment, Nicholas was like a big bad wolf wagging his tail. I was amused, but due to my habits from my career, I began to read through the details of the documents.

Just as I was about to scroll to the next page, I felt a sharp pain around my neck. Nicholas had just bit me.

“Hurry up and read through it. You claim to trust me, yet you’re still reading through every last detail”

I wanted to ignore him, but he had indeed succeeded in distracting me. My heart was filled with warmth as I couldn’t help but ask him, Why are you so good to me?”

In truth, what I really wanted to ask was, did he love me, even just a little?
