Chapter 11 11
Vanessa's POV
"Boss, the 20th gift for the week" Brittany said bringing in a rose flower bouquet, a gift box and a small gift bag.
"Thank you. Please drop it over there" I pointed at the table close to the door.
Since Tuesday, I've been getting random gifts. From one person!!! One fucking person!
"Oh damn girl! This guy really adores you. This is baby girl treatment at it's peak" Becca walked to check out the gift
"Just take it all. I could really take up a Santa duty this Christmas because my house is filled with presents" I groaned and sunk myself into my chair
"Could be love?"
"Or lust." I said swiftly.
"But either ways you're getting the dick and the pres- What the fuck!!!!!! A ticket to Preston's Restaurant. This is a five fucking star restaurant." Becca walked up to me and placed the ticket on my desk. It's like a pass.
"So?"
"Sooooo....you shouldn't miss this! I feel like a note should be attached to this" She went back to empty the bag and i just shutted my eyes because I'm already exhausted.
"I'm correct! And it says see you by 8pm. Only."
"I'm not going" I said firmly.
"You do not have a say in this, Nessa. Get a life! When last did you get into something serious anyway. You're 23 for goodness sake. Ain't finna watch you turn into a nun" She laughed
"Please leave me! This guy you're talking about is just after my body. I told you I saw him doing shit with a random girl in his office. Don't want to be one of his girls." I glared at her.
I know you'll be wandering why it bothers me so much that he's after my body when I run one night stands sometimes. Well, he's my client... I just can't
"How about 'no strings attached' type of relationship? Just let it flow?" She raised an eyebrow at me
"I don't know. I guess you've given me something to think about then." I smiled genuinely.
"Good. Now let's leave so you could go get dressed" She squealed
"Don't you have any better thing to do with your life? It's Friday you could go get laid or try cooking or drown in a jacuzzi" I rolled my eyes
"Nice plans you've got there. How did I not think of it?! You're such a smart girl" She glared at me and I just smiled sheepishly
"3 hours and I'll be out of this office please. Go hunt men outside please" I shooed her away
"It's 5pm! Pleaseeeee let's just go. I'm famished!" She cried out
"Then go get something to eat and leave me alone" I crosschecked my designs for the next event I'm working on
"Your mysterious Billionaire restocks your fridge every two days. I'm very sure I want what's in your fridge" She wailed like a baby
"You know where my key is, so just go back home and help me empty my fridge. I really appreciate" I looked up from my tab to see her glaring at me. I swear, I'm really testing her patience
"I swear you're being hard but I'll be back after an hour. Just an hour, bitch!" She pointed at me
"Make it 4 please" I blew her a kiss
"Shove that kiss up your goddamn ass." She banged the door
I bet she'll be back in the next one hour and she won't listen to me anymore.
I picked up my phone to video call my Elder sister, Autumn
"Hi Baby Sis" Autumn said, immediately her face popped up on my screen
"Hi Mrs." I laughed at my plumpy looking sister. She got all plump because of her pregnancy. "You look cute, how is pregnancy treating you?"
"Horrible. I swear, Edward is trying for me because I know if I was in his shoes I'd leave him. Wanna take a look at my baby bump?" She said cutely
"Sure. Is it a girl or a boy?"
"I want it to be a surprise so I didn't go for a gender reveal" She raised up her top to reveal her cute baby bump. "Ignore the stretchmarks"
"Awww so cuteeee. I can't wait for you to be due my love" I cooed
"And I can't wait for you to bring home to us, your man. I mean, Jason is about to engage Silver if only he hasn't. So you're next" She rubbed on her stomach
"Please shut up. Hi sweetheart in there, come out so aunty can spoil you silly"
"She or he just kicked. So you've signed an agreement. Be ready" She chuckled. "Wanna tell me about the man in your life?" She wiggled her eyebrow at me
"No man but tonight I'll be going out with Richard Blackwood. He's a flirt and a man whore but he's been on my toes and I'm tryna just get rid of him but right now I think I can't because he's stalking me" I sighed
"Juicy ai? Tell me when you guys fuck" She brought down her top
"Is that what you're saying to your younger sister? And your child?" I laughed. "Might fuck him and transfer all the money to my account"
"Good but don't be a fool okay? Only have sex when you feel it's the right time and not because you're pressured. Do it for your own fun and not because you feel you should use it to keep a man"
"Motherly duties already? You do know I've popped my cherry right? I mean, I'm 23"
"Right. I think I hear my husband coming back with the food I sent for. Take care of yourself and spam me with pictures of your date"
"I love you. Say hi to Edward." I waved at her and hung up.
"It's time!" Becca said barging into my office.
"No that's not true. It's not even up to an hour!" I yelled
"I do not care. I'm so pumped up for this date. Up!" She stamped her foot and i groaned, while dragging myself out of my chair.
Don't even know who invited her to my office. Would've skipped this goddamn date.
"Fine. Let's go" I picked up few things from my desk and left the office.
"The gift?" Becca yelled
"Just carry them, Manager!" I yelled back at her. "I'm done for the day please make sure the office is closed by 7:30pm. Thank you Brittany" I said to my assistant
"Okay Boss. Noted" She smiled at me.
Few minutes later, we arrived at my house and then, I was being dressed up. I literally did nothing.
"Now the finish touch!" She said bringing a perfume to spray me.
"What's the time?" I asked her
"8pm. You have to keep the man on his toes" She smirked. "Let's go, I'll drop you off"
"But he's suppose to pick me up. That's what a date is like" I rolled my eyes
"He paid the fucking ticket bitch. Be grateful." She smacked my ass and dragged me out. "Smile at him, place your hands on his thigh when you laugh, use your body -"
"Can you please just move this car. You act like Autumn sometimes" I frowned
"Blerhhhh" She laughed
"I feel like going home" I said, as we approached the Restaurant
"Bitch no! Now get out of my baby!" She yelled at me and blew me a kiss.
This makes me look desperate. I could just board a car home but I didn't come out with my card or cash. All thanks to my best friend.
