CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE
“ it’s Three in the morning , Luca please go to your room , I’ll like to have my beauty sleep now “ I said
“ Arrgh girl , you’re the only interesting person here spend more time with me” he whined
“ Nooooooooo”
“ Let’s I try out the couples massage “ he suggested
“ Luca it’s three in the morning , those people will probably be asleep in their own houses “ I said
“ I can’t believe little Bella is getting married today “
“ yeah I’ve been meaning to ask , how did you and Nick meet Bella ?” I asked
“ As for Nick , Bella is one of his numerous exes and as for me we met at the Gage awards three “ he said
“ oh the Gage awards? The one hosted by queen ?” I asked
“ yeah , you like queen ?”
“ like ? I love her “
“ You know , now that I’m thinking about it , you really look like her “ he said
“ I know right , a lot of people tell me I must be related to her “ I said
“ oh wow , are you truly related to her?”
“ of course not “ I said then we heard a knock on the door
“ Come in “ I said then Mr Harlow came in
Oh he’s back
“ Finally! What took you so long?” Luca asked
“ well guess who didn’t go to the meeting with me “ he said
“ yeah but you told me to stay behind and babysit Laura “
Wait what ?
“ You told Luca to babysit me ? What am I , a baby ?” I asked
“ Wow Miss Paley , nice to see you too” he said sarcastically
“ Whatever , you all should get out of my room , it’s almost daybreak and I haven’t had any sleep “ I said
“ Fine I’m leaving , see you at daybreak sweetie “ Luca said blowing me a kiss which I returned .
I looked back to see the scowl on Nick’s face
“ what ?” I asked
“ Sweetie ? Really ?”
“ what’s wrong ? Can’t he call me that?”
“ uhhh I don’t know , Isn’t that for people in a relationship?”
“ yeah but we are best friends so I guess you could say we are in some kinda relationship “ I said and he laughed nervously
“ so … uhhh … are you excited about later ? I mean what we’ve been planning is finally here “ he said
“ Uhhh yeah , I can’t wait “ I said smiling and he smiled back
“ Laura I – you -I gotta tell you something “ he said
“ What’s that ?” I asked
“You , I mean we both – uhhh you have been –“
I watched as he stumbled on his words and I couldn’t help but laugh
“ Mr Harlow , what do you want ?” I asked
“ I – I want to … ummm goodnight Laura , I’ll see you tomorrow “he said
Really ? I’ve never seen Nick this nervous
“ It’s four in the morning , so good morning sir” I said smiling
“ uhhh yeah Good morning , whatever , see you later” he said walking out immediately
I couldn’t help but smile at his awkwardness , I wonder what he wanted to tell me though .

MR HARLOW : Rise and shine sleeping it’s 9:0clock already . Get dressed the driver will come pick you up very soon . [ Wedding starts by three so meet me at the venue before then ].
Wow I can’t believe it’s time already , the biggest celebrity ever will be wearing a dress I designed .
I heard my phone ring signalling an incoming call , I checked and saw that it was a video call from Zoey .
“ Hey Bitch , what’cha doin ?” she asked
“ As you can see I’m still in bed “ I said
“I heard the party starts by three , I’m dying from excitement right now “ she squealed happily
“ I know right ,I can’t wait for the party to start although I was you were here with me “ I said and she smiled sadly
“ I know boo , I miss you too “
“ So how are things over there ?” I asked
“Nothing much “ she said nervously
“ You hooked up with a hit guy didn’t you ?” I asked
“ fine you got me , I hooked up with your gym instructor “ she confessed
“ What the … you sly fox , I thought you said you didn’t like him because he was Bi “
“ yeah well he said he’s straight now and let’s forget about me , girl you have to hook up with someone “ she said
“ why ?”
“ Dude it’s been ages , you need someone to knock the dust off that box you know “
“ Maybe I need to remind you that I’m here on an official assignment , besides I don’t hook up with strangers and you know that “ I said
“ Look on the bright side , there’s Mr Harlow there with you and you know he’s ready to hook up with anything in skirt … especially you “ she said
Yeah right , Hook up my foot
“ uhh sorry I can’t hear you , I think the connection is breaking up “ I said cutting the call
I do this to avoid annoying talks with Zoey .
I quickly got up and did my morning business , after that I went for a quick swim , did tons of TikTok videos and video called Zoey to show her everything . After a while I walked up to my room to get dressed .
I stared at the beautiful gown on my body and I couldn’t you but marvel , damn! I’m a good fashion designer . I wore my heels and fixed my lashes , after looking in the mirror for what seemed like the hundredth time and sending tons of pictures to Zoey , I decided to wait for the driver .
After few minutes I heard a knock on the door , that must be the driver , I walked to open the door and saw Luca .
“ Hey are ready to – Damn you look hot “ he said In awe
“ Yeah I know “ I said flipping my hair into his face
“ Are you ready ?” he asked
“ Yeah , are you taking me ?”
“ Yes , apparently Nick wants you to be safe in this foreign land so he wants me to be your babysitter and driver “ he said which made me laugh
“ Cool , let’s roll “ I said and he led me to the car
“ Are you nervous ?” he asked as he started the ignition
“ Yeah … a little “ I said then he held my hands
“ You Don’t have to be , you own this … go out there and make it happen “ he said
“ Thanks Luca “ I said
“ Now with that being said Let’s go to that party and paint it red”
“ uhh ok “
After few hours we arrived at the party late , courtesy of Luca who wanted to change his suit because he accidentally spilled ice cream on it .
I checked my phone and saw ten missed calls from Mr Harlow
“ Nick is gonna kill us “ he said
“ well if you hadn’t delayed us by getting ice cream and spilling it on your pants , maybe we wouldn’t be in so much trouble “
“ yeah yeah , now’s not the time to regret our actions “
“ Our ? Your actions not mine “ I said
“ Wow Laura , you’re such a bad friend Don’t worry Nick won’t say a word “ he said
“ How are you so sure ?” I asked
“ He’ll be too dumbstruck staring at you that he won’t even see anything else “
“ I think you’re underestimating Nick’s anger “
“ Not this time sweetie , you wanna bet ?”
“ no thank you “ I said
“ ok here we are “ he said parking the car
“ Finally “ I mumbled as I quickly got out of the car to locate Mr Harlow
I dialled his number
“ Hello , Laura Paley where the fuck have you been ?” he asked angrily
“ Yeah I’m at the venue “ I said
“ The party started minutes ago and you’re just coming , I made such a big mistake sending Luca to get you “ he said
“ Nick will you keep nagging me or just tell me where I’ll find you , in this humongous building ?”
“ Fine , I’m at the main entrance “ he said and I cut the call .
I walked forward to check for the main entrance, after what seemed like minutes I finally saw him standing by the door, his back faced me as he was talking to someone on the phone angrily , I guess that must be Luca .
As I walked closer to him my heart skipped a beat and my under got wet , he looked untouchable in his designer suit with his hair gelled to the back , my mouth watered at the sight in front of me .
I walked closer to him and said out loud
“ Mr Harlow “ I called
“ Miss Paley hoe could you – “
He looked dumfounded as he looked at me from my head to my toes .
“ you – l-look … you lo- Miss Paley You look beautiful “ he said Placing a kiss on my hand
“ shall we ?” he asked holding his hand out
“ yeah “ I said grabbing it
Wow he’s not angry ? I guess Luca was right after all .
Ok here we go !
