Chapter 331 - Make you doubt my feelings (1/2)
”Do you think I would bath with you while you're unconscious?''
Diana's eyes fluttered.
”Uh…” now she thought about it, he was not one to take advantage of others.
”If I should say, I would say no, but you never can tell, male hormones are something else.”
She laughed, but Michael shook his head.
”Nah, I'm very serious about you, I can't do anything that would make you doubt my feelings for you. So no matter what it is, I can't take advantage of you.”
Diana's laugh stopped on her tongue as she stared at him,
It was rare to find someone who was very handsome and at the same time loyal. Her heart warmed as she watched him. Maybe this was her reward for loving someone so recklessly in the past.
”thank you.” She whispered with a smile. He was someone every woman would wish for and she was so lucky to have him.
”why?” Michael glanced at her amused.
”Nothing, just… for everything. For coming into my life. I don't know what I would have done without you, maybe I would have still been pining about my one sided crush.”
He laughed, ”let's go grab something to eat okay?”
Diana nodded and looked forward.
”Okay.”
…
Diana's phone rang as she was about to enter her house after bidding Michael goodbye.
She swiped her phone and answered when she saw the caller.
”what's up?” she asked as she entered into her house and closed the door, her shoes came off first followed by her handbag which she tossed on the couch in the parlor.
”Are you home? Wanna take you out. ”
Richard asked, Diana could hear the honking of vehicles and she knew he was on the road.
”Thanks for the offer and no, I'm not home,”
”Okay, I'm almost at your place, I'll wait for you till you get back.”
Diana sighed, ”what is it?”
Richard laughed, he knew she was lying. ”come on, I just want to spoil you, it won't hurt would it?”
”Sorry sweetheart, but my man is already doing that.”
Diana didn't think she would one day be proud to call someone hers.
”Ouch, don't rub it on my face. Alright alright, just hang out with me, I'm so lonely.”
She thought for a moment. Even though his father was a thorn in their flesh, he was still his father, and with what was going on with his mom, she pitied him a little.
”Two hours, nothing more.”
”Thank you, I'll be there in less than five minutes.”
Richard ended the call before Diana would change her mind. Diana rolled her eyes as she had a quick shower and wore a crop top over a high waist trousers, with sneakers on her feet. She did a light makeup and grabbed her purse, quickly sending Michael a text, she stepped out of her house.
Just that moment, Richard pulled into her compound.
”Didn't know five minutes could be so long.” She rolled her eyes at him when he came out of the car.
Richard laughed,
”Sorry, I'll take you somewhere nice to make it up,”
Diana shrugged, ”whatever, just know you've used thirty minutes of your time.”
She said and got into the car.
Richard sighed as he started the car,
”All these bullying just because I want to spoil you.”
”Five more minutes gone.”
Diana said with a poker face and Richard knew better than to keep talking.
He pulled up at a famous restaurant and held the door open for her.
”Do you like it here?”
Diana shrugged and walked past him to the entrance.
”At least put up a smile, we're not quarreling.”
”I'm not smiling because I can sense what you want to talk about, but I'm praying that it's not it.”
She said as she sat down and picked the menu by her side.
Richard smiled, but didn't reply her.
Diana had already eaten with Michael so she just ordered red wine.
”What about you, Mister? '' the waiter asked when he saw he wasn't picking anything.
”I'll have whatever she's having.”
The waiter nodded and walked away.
When he was out of earshot, Richard turned to her,
”It seems your man is treating you well, this is the brightest I've seen you in like forever.”
Diana smiled, ”yeah, he's the best thing that has ever happened to me.”
”True, I can see it, I'm very happy for you. And you both are filming a movie together, right?''
”Yes.”
”That's interesting. You didn't seem like someone who would want an open relationship.”
Diana creased her brows,
The waiter returned with the drinks and placed it in front of them.
He filled Diana's glass before Richard's and left immediately after.
”How?”
She asked,
”Well, after this movie, what next? Will you be comfortable with your boyfriend kissing and making out with another woman on set?
Don't get me wrong, I know it's just acting but, do you think you can take it? What if he starts to like someone else?”
”Richard…” Diana called, stopping him from talking, ”I just wanted him on this set with me because I'm most comfortable with him, and besides acting is not his career, I don't think he wants to pursue it.”
She replied nervously. Even though she didn't want to accept it, Richard had a point.
