Chapter 205 - 200 (1/2)
Aria was seated in a fancy restaurant waiting for Celeb who was 30 minutes late. She tried calling him but he was not answering her call.
Aria was looking around and saw the waiters looking at her with pity.
Aria had never felt this embarrassed and was at urge of tears.
She had decided to call Caleb one more time and then leave if he doesn't answer but just then a waiter approaches her and asks ”would you like to order?”
”I... Aahhhh.... ”She started and then they heard a voice behind the waiter.
”We like to order your finest wine”
Both the waiter and Aria turn to look at the source of the voice and see Brad with the widest smile.
Aria stands up from her place and looks at Brad confused.
”I am so sorry” says Brad and hugs a very confused Aria to a tight hug.
”Hmm..” he m.o.a.ns feeling he close to him and running his on he body and was almost close to moving his hand on her butt when the waiter clears his throat.
Brad breaks the hug and looks at the waiter and says ”I am in so much trouble. Hope you can help buddy. Bring us your finest wine and suggest your specials which would make make my girlfriend forgive me”
”Of course sir” says the waiter and Brad shakes his hand and slips a hundred dollar bill to him.
”Thanks buddy” says Brad and winks at the waiter.
After the waiter leaves, Brad looks at Aria and sees her almost in tears.
She hugs Brad and says ”I have never felt this embarrassed in my life. Everyone knows I am a Devonte and being stood up would be in the news tomorrow.” And breaks the hug and continues ”how did you know I was here?”
”My father is responsible for all your security and you know someone is always watching you. So, I paid that guy a bit extra to keep me updated on you too” said Brad and pulls Aria's chair for her to take a seat.
”Does your father know?” Asks Aria watching Brad take a seat in front of her.
”I think he does. He only hires people who he trusts and won't break his trust” says Brad and the waiter brings in the wine and serves it for them.
”And he was okay?” Asks Aria.
”The guy who is watching you is kind of a double agent. He works for my dad first and is just entertaining my request. He was like extra cash wouldn't hurt to earn from a Romeo” says Brad and Aria busts out laughing.
And that's how the evening went with laughter, good food and smiles.
Aria felt really happy for the turn of events and enjoyed the night.
Brad took Aria to the mansion after dinner and when they reached Arlo's mansion Brad opened the car door for Aria.
”Aren't you a gentleman” says Aria.
”Keyword , man” says Brad.
”Thank you for tonight , Brad. I had a wonderful night” says Aria.
”So are you in for an actual date with me?” Asks Brad.
”Weren't we on a date today” asks Aria.
”No, a date with me would be memorable. This was just me saving your butt to be embarrassed” says Brad.
”Oh my hero” says Aria and laughs.
”So?” Asks Brad.
”So what?” Asks Aria.
”Go on a date with me” says Brad.
”Tell me one thing? Do you think I'll accept your proposal to be with you? And where do you think this will lead us?” Asks Aria.
”I have a destination in mind but don't want to scare you revealing it yet but for now I want to show you that I am all you ever want to have. Accept me and give us a chance” says Brad.
”I don't know what to say” says Aria.
”How about this. After you break up with that doctor, date me. Let's see where it does” says Brad.
”How are you confident I will break up with him?” Asks Aria.
”I can give you evidence I collected on him that will make you break his face than just break up with him. But I want you to figure this out yourself. I know you get frustrated when someone interferes in your personal life. So I won't push you to make any decisions. Take your time and remember I am open to any kind of relationship you want” says Brad and kisses Aria's cheek.
