Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Game of Seduction

It was as if there were hidden cameras around. Having an extremely attractive looking guy stand in front of a huge tiered fountain is already eye-catching. But when his girl arrived, everyone was astounded on how beautiful they looked together. Looking at their priceless reaction when they met was so breathtaking like the warm morning sun, gushing its radiance warming everyone up.

Time seemed to have stopped the moment their eyes met and stared at each other. It turned out that the both of them had been betrayed by their own thoughts.

Audrey told herself that she'll remain as composed as possible for she knew that it will hard to resist Aiden's charm. Though she had prepared herself for the unexpectable, when she saw how he looked at her with those pair of hazel eyes of his, she felt as if everything around her stopped with emotions that she can't explain. She thought that it will all drift away if Aiden spoke but when he did, he only made it worse.

As she feels her cheeks slowly heating up, she tried cupping them with her hands. She knows that this is just all an act but what he said seriously caught her off guard.

"I'm glad that you're mine," Aiden said trying to repose himself from such a heart-racing scenario. He knew that she's always been beautiful. It just so happens that he wasn't expecting her to be this unrecognizably stunning.

Audrey recalled to herself that this is just all according to plan. They needed to act as realistic as possible that might even fool other people out. That includes their action and their wordings towards each other.

But with that Aiden had just said, she almost fell for it herself. So, in her defense, she smiled back at him and thought of doing something that she only read on books. If this is how he wanted to play, she'll return him the satisfaction by counterattacking him with something that he's not expecting.

She took a step forward and slowly wrapped her arms around Aiden's neck as she tipped her toe trying to fully reach him. She saw how surprised his response is as she look at him in the eye. She then said, "Since I'm all yours, will you take responsibility if I ended falling for you more that I already have?"

Looking how extremely amusing his reaction towards her, Audrey seemed to have won this round. It's as if a switch has been flipped and embarrassed Aiden for this time, he is the one blushing. It seems that prince charming won't do all the charming this time then.

They went to a renowned restaurant in accordance to Kylie's plan. She specifically said, "You two need to sit side by side. Feed each other in the sweetest possible way that you know. Make our eyes bleed of jealousy if you can. Just do it!"

After Audrey and Aiden had been assisted by a nice lady to their seat, Audrey received a text from Kylie saying, "She's here." Aiden saw the message too.

Knowing that both of them are being watched by Tiffany, they both look calm. Audrey took and opened the menu placed on the table. When she opened it, she stared at the menu having a hard time reading the name of the dishes themselves. It seems as if it's French. She then looked at the price of each meal, but it shocked her how expensive it is. She shifted a bit and looked at Aiden and saw how collected he is while browsing the menu.

Aiden saw Audrey's gaze so he asked, "You looked worried. What's wrong."

Audrey leaned closer to him and whispered, "The menu here is crazy expensive. It's making me think that they're going to put diamond on my drink and serve gold on my plate."

Aiden find Audrey's words adorably cute and funny at the same time. He then leaned towards her and whispered, "Don't worry about a thing. Your boyfriend is crazy rich."

Defeated with what he said, she figured out that she really better do a background check with this person if he really might end up selling her off or abandon her at some deserted place soon.

One by one, their order came with such lavish food plating design. There was a soup, steak, potato salad and a slice of blueberry cheesecake. Audrey was thrilled when she saw the blueberry cheesecake for it's her third favorite cake. The first one is a black forest gateau while the second one is a red velvet cake.

After finishing the soup, the two started eating steak. Audrey took a fork on her left hand and a knife on her right and begin cutting the enticing sizzling piece of meat placed in front of her. As she continues to cut a small piece of it, she felt like it was taking her almost forever to cut it out. She turned her head to look at how Aiden is doing and as expected he was handling it like a pro. He was a natural.

Aiden noticed Audrey looking at him so he looked back and realized that she's having a hard time with her meal. He then voluntarily said, "Let me help you."

He took Audrey's fork and knife and cut the steak effortless with such manner. After cutting the whole steak, he took a piece of meat and put it on the fork. He reached it out to Audrey which she willingly took a bite at. He saw her expression brighten when she found out how delicious it was.

After Audrey finished with her steak, she immediately took the blueberry cheesecake that she had been wanting to eat by the time it was place on their table. She took her dessert spoon and scooped a generous amount and ate it. She was so happy that she started smiling unknowingly.

Amused, Aiden looked at how happy she is while eating her cake. She smiles so genuine that it's contagiously making himself smile too.

When she finished the cake up, Aiden saw that there was an icing on her right cheek so he said, "You have a…"

"Hmm?"

Tempted, he touched Audrey's face gently and lifted her chin with his right hand making her face him. He immediately met her curious eyes. Without any warning, he leaned close to her face and looked at her right cheek and said, "You're seriously tempting me on this doing this to you."

He surprisingly kissed Audrey on her cheek.
