Chapter 19: Sister?!!!
Lila’s POV: Sister?!!!
If I didn't know better, I would think that Nicholas Cole was nothing but a blockhead. Because who goes around claiming someone, a complete stranger as his sister?
“I don’t remember having another brother” I let out in a jokingly manner as I tried to ease the tension in the air.
“Noooooo” he said frantically as he waved his hands vigorously in the air.
“What I meant was that I want you as a sister. Not that you are my sister. Yeah. That’s what I meant”
He seemed to be convincing himself more than me as I watched him gulp. Loudly even.
Was this truly the actor who was cold to everyone he met.
“Uhmmm, Mr Cole, do you mind giving me an autograph?”
I watched his face morph into an Iceland as he coldly glared at the poor girl who had asked for his autograph.
“Did you not see I was talking to my sister?” Did this dude really take me for a sister without even knowing who I am? Scratch that, he called me by my name. That counts as something. Right?
“Sorry sir. I didn’t know she was your sister” Tthe girl kept bowing as she apologized.
“She asked you for an autograph only. Not your freaking life. You don’t need to make her feel low of herself”
I reprimanded him because I hated when actors felt they were on top of the world. The girl still kept her head lowered as I walked to her and helped her up.
“It’s a yes and no something. No need to make a big deal out of it. Apologize”
I kept my face stern as I heard everyone around me take a sharp breath. I don’t think Mr Prissy pants here has ever had anyone talk to him like that. I was already ready to hear his piece until…
“I’m sorry for replying rudely to you. I never meant to structure my sentence that way. As a way to show my sincerity, not only will I give you an autograph, I will also take a picture with you and follow all your accounts on social media.”
“Whoaaaaaa.” People exclaimed as the girl had tears of joy in her eyes as she looked at me. Not knowing what to do, I simply smiled at her.
I understand taking a picture with her and the autograph but wasn’t following her on all socials too much. Then again, I wasn’t going to interfere.
“Handsome you can scold me too”
“Handsome what about me?”
“What about my socials? Xingxing is my handle on twitter…”
Everyone kept on chattering about it and soon enough everyone swarmed to him. Pushing I and the girl away.
Slowly walking off, I casually walked to the end to admire the chaos.
Nicholas has always been rumored to be eccentric. Too focused on his job and his work alone. He didn’t even have any scandals since his debut. But why did it feel like he was more of a mischievous type than the eccentric type?
And moreover, why the fuck did he look like Adrian?
Now that I thought about it, Nicholas’s last name was Cole. So was Adrian. Same build, slightly similar facial structures. He was like a younger version of Adrian except with dyed hair.
I picked up my phone and sent him a text, I wasn’t even expecting him to respond immediately.
“Hi Daddy”
My heart jump as I awaited for a few seconds before I saw the three floating bubbles that indicated he was typing.
Holy shit. Wasn’t he busy running a billion dollars conglomerate. How would he have the time to respond to a bed mate like me?
“Hello Princess”
Oh fck… Oh fck… Oh fck!!
I was still trying to contain my surprise and excitement when my phone suddenly rang out. I threw the phone up in surprise and managed to catch it as I quickly walked away from the noise.
In a more quiet area this time, I finally picked up.
“Hi Daddy”
“Is anything wrong? Is there anyone bullying you on set? Do I need to kill anyone?”
His words made me chuckle. Surely he wouldn’t kill anyone because of me.
“I’m fine. I just wanted to ask you something”
“What is it Princess?”
“Nothing much. Promise you won’t get angry?”
Was I being too much? Who was I to call him at will? What was I even thinking texting him in the first place?
“Oh Princess. You really don’t know how much power you hold in your hands now, do you? Ask me whatever you want Princess. Whenever you want. And I promise to always give you the honest answer, no matter how it sounds”
When did me texting him turn into a solemn vow?
“Come on everyone. First take is in two minutes” I heard the director yell inside which made me ask the question anyway.
“Is Nicholas Cole related to you in anyway? I noticed you both have the same father’s name and you both look so similar. I’m sorry if I am intruding or anything.”
His laugh echoed in the background. That deep husky laugh. His laugh sparked a switch in me as I felt my pussy wey. Oh heavens. I can’t believe a laugh was enough to turn me on.
“Yes. He’s my nephew and he’s there to make sure no one comes close to you or touches a hair on your head. He’s your bodyguard and your personal chef. If he ever does anything that makes you uncomfortable, feel free to tell me”
“But he’s your nephew!!” Why was everything weird these days!
“And you are my Princess. I know perfectly well where my intentions lie. Now we will talk later okay Princess”
And with that, he ended the call.
This was a dream. A huge dream. And the only thing I needed to do now was to go back to sleep, wake up and everything would be as it was before.
Yess!! That was it…
“Sister, the director wants you!!!!!”
Nicholas’s voice echoed from inside. He was Adrian’s nephew. Adrian sent him. He knows Adrian. Adrian knows him.
Then he must know of our relationship. My secret. Everything.
I am doomed.
