Chapter 21 " Ms. Price , Mr. Michaels has just arrived . " I stood nervously , telling myself to tighten up . I didn't want him thinking I was easy to intimidate . Putting on my most controlled yet seductive smile , I smoothed out my dress and awaited my guess . Aaron was like a male model crafted by gods . He walked into the room wearing an all - black tailor - made Italian suit with a crisp black button up shirt . He allowed the first three buttons to be undone , causing a subtle part of his upper chest as well as his long , beautiful neck to be exposed . For accessories , he wore a gold single chained necklace and a LeCore Te'crute watch . The value of the watch alone was worth thousands of dollars . At that moment , I was so glad I took my sister - in - law's advice about my attire . Aaron pulled his chair out and sat down , maintaining his gaze on me the entire time . It almost felt as if he were undressing me with his eyes , the craziest part is that I wanted him too . After both of us sat down , Aaron was the first to speak . " I have to say Ms. Price ; that's a hell of dress you're wearing . " Blushing , I began to smile shyly . " You don't look so bad yourself Mr. Michaels . I'm sorry it took so long for me to respond . " Aaron took a sip of wine and smiled a mischievous grin . " I'd say you're right on time ; besides , I've waited over 5 years for you so 10 more days would not have killed me . " Waited 5 years , what did he mean by that ? Before I could ask , the team of waiters walked into the room . prepared to take our orders . After taking a swig of my wine , I decided now was the time to give him my answer . " Mr. Michaels , I've decided to accept your offer and marry you . " Aaron stared at me intensively as if he were pondering whether or not I was serious . Suddenly , he let out a slight chuckle , " I'm very glad to hear that Ms. Price . More than I express this evening , " The look in his eyes said he was telling the truth . Suddenly , an uneasy feeling began creeping into my thoughts . Why was he so hellbent on marrying me ? I had to know , " Chairman . Michaels- " Aaron held up his hand stopping me mid - sentence . " Aaron , why don't you call me Aaron ... Rabena . " It was something about the way he said my name that made me feel assured . Involuntarily , my lips curled into a smile . 1/2 Chapter 21 " I'd like that too ... Aaron . So , Aaron , I have to ask ; me ? " Aaron let loud laugh ; this question had caught him completely off guard . Still chuckling , Aaron looked at Rabena with a serious expression . " I'm not sure you're ready for that answer . Once you are , I'll give it to you . " Rabena gave Aaron a puzzled and frustrating expression . Why was he being so mysterious . Suddenly , she remembered both her uncle and cousin telling her Aaron wasn't what he seemed , so she decided not to pry any longer . Instead , she'd quietly hoped they would one day get a point where they could fully trust each other . Aaron suddenly let out a loud clap jolting Rabena out of her thoughts . " Now ! How would you like to receive a pre - wedding present ? " Rabena raised an eyebrow , what could he mean by that ? Intrigued , she smiled and leaned forward , speaking just above a whisper . " What exactly did you have in mind fiancé ? " The word fiancé slid of her tongue in a seductive way causing Aaron to become slightly excited . Leaning forward , he gave Rabena his most dazzling smile . " How about some revenge on your ex and your family ? " Chapter Comments 3 POST COMMENT NOW
