11 CHAPTER ELEVEN (1/2)
Chase's POV
I woke up quite early and went for a morning run, did some workouts and had that smoothie Amy made for me.
She's been making it for me for quite sometime now and its really nice.
I walk downstairs and saw Amy arranging the table, I'm guessing she cooked again. There are some things Amy do that makes me wonder how she grew up, what her parents were like. I'm sure they must have been pretty close because whenever she's cooking, she has this happy radiation over her that makes me think maybe her parent taught her how to cook and this way she still feels close to them. That's why when I see that she wants to cook, I don't argue about it. Why will I argue about it when her food tastes better than the cooks I have? I mean, no jokes. She's a really great cook.

I walk down and saw that she made dark chocolate pancakes with strawberry and honey topping. It looked so delicious, it made my stomach growled.
*Laughing*
”It seems someone is really hungry this morning” Amy said, shifting the chair in order for me to sit. I shyly smiled at her, picking the forks immediately my butt touched the chair.
”Morning amazing cook” I replied, digging my fork inside the yummy looking pancakes. I fetched some and when my mouth welcomed it, my eyes shut itself and I couldn't help but moan at the sweetness it was releasing inside my mouth, and the gulp I made once I was done chewing. It was wonderful.
Opening my eyes and ready for another bite
”Are you sure you don't wanna open a restaurant? I mean this is really amazing and I'm sure your business will boom” I ended, placing another inside my mouth. That made Jason laugh. ”He really likes your cooking” Jason said in a whispering mode and that made Amy smile.
”Well I've always wanted to own a restaurant. Not too big tho, just average and making things that people will love because I love cooking” Amy finished having a bite too.
”Then why didn't you ever say anything?” Chase asked.
”Well I wanted wor-” Amy was cut off by the call from my phone.
”Sorry” i muttered and answered the call. It was my Dad.
”Hello Dad” I said, hearing him clear his throat from the other end.
”Chase how are you? I hope everything is ready for today? I invited some business profiles from Africa to partner with us and they would love to see how well we handle our stuffs here, so it will be nice to have a good strategy show off in order to impress them. What do you think?” He finished.
”That's great Dad, I'll see to it” I replied. And we went ahead to talk about some stuffs before ending the call.
*******
”Is everything alright?” Amy asked immediately I dropped my phone.
”Everything's great. Now, about your restaurant?” I reminded.
We went ahead to discuss about it and it turned out she'd love to have one but she wanted to work as a designer too, but due to some circumstances she decided to work outside her field for the time being.

AMAYA'S POV
The event started about an hour ago, I'm here at the event with no Chase in sight. He left earlier due to the fact that he had some business to attend to before everything is set.
After hours of confused decision on what to wear, I decided to go with A golden backless gown, with a slit closure on my right leg, reaching just above my knees with a comfortable heel to go with it.
Putting my hair on a bun and applying light makeup.
I was happy I decided to wear this because seeing what the ladies are wearing here, it's as if they came for a competition or something. Seeing what rich people do in a party, I was kinda disappointed. I mean it was literary boring, just people with their glasses of wines, or champagnes. Whatever they chose.
Standing with their little purse, laughing at whatever. Light and slow music playing on the background, and now I just want to go back home and plump on my couch, watching a movie and eating.
Exhaling, I decided to call Chase because people were still arriving at the event and Chase the CEO and host of the event isn't here yet and me the PA to this person doesn't know where he is.
Just then I saw Jessica, Chase's younger sister, and we've not seen or even talked since the wedding.
I waved at her to get her attention, and just then she notices me and rushed to me smiling.
”Oh my God, its you. You're actually here” she said, hugging me tight. And I try to laugh but I had to gasp for air. Immediately she realizes she was choking me, she let go.
”Oh my God, I'm sorry. Chase will kill me if he finds out I try to kill his wife” she said wearing an apologetic smile.
I exhaled and smiled back.
”Its nice to see you again Jessy. Although I'm angry at you. You didn't call or even come check up on me, that's not fair” I said to her.
”I'm so so sorry, I intended to call but I've been too busy, but i promise I'll make it up to you okay?” She apologized. I smiled
”Its okay” I replied. And we began to talk and laugh, and it seems I'm not the only one who think party's like this are boring.
