Chapter 10 - Afraid

Xavier's pov

I dropped a rose in front of her aunt's house, "Take care and don't forget to complete your homework " I said and she sighed in irritation

" Thanks for reminding me" she replies in a bored tone and I chuckled, I can understand she doesn't want to do her study but she has to do it anyway she said bye to me and I decided to go in the office to ask Celina what important work she has with me.

When I reached there the lights are closed and nobody was there except Celina she is dedicated and hardworking Secretary I ever got but she can't do anything without my help.

That's the only thing I don't like about her.

I walked towards her and knock on the table where she was working its front of my office she quickly rosed up from her seat and greets me nervously.

I raised my brows gesturing her to say what work she has with me " S-Sir th-these are the d-designs I made for ramp walk " she stuttered, handing me the designs of the dress that I told her to make for the fashion show that will go held in our city this weekend.

As a professional fashion designer, I make a unique design of dresses mostly wears by celebrities and My designs are always different and special from others so this time something different should be there.

I glance at the designs she made the first one is a black dress covered with silver glitter and a matching net is covering the breast area and the sides are slightly opened showing the legs, just from the look, I can say this dress is going to be tight on the midsection.

The next costume was a dark green colored dress with pure satin's fabric there was a belt with emerald (green gems) on the waist area giving the perfect balance to the dress it was long enough to clean the floor easily this dress gives me the vibe of the Vikings era.

And the third one has no fabric It's completely made with the blue shiny net and matching diamonds on top and bottom these nets are thick enough to cover the model's body and cleavage is popping out from the top making the hourglass figure. And the rest of the dresses were just like the first three.

To be frank, these designs are completely different from what I've made, I am sure this will rock the audience.

I looked back to Celina, nervousness was floating on her face "I like it" I said, she gives me a shocked look before a small smile tug on her lips.

"Seriously, You liked it?" She asks and I nodded before placing the designs back on the desk.

"But there's a problem" I state flatly her smiles drop out of sudden" ohh don't worry about it it's just that we need to find some new faces. " She nods in worry and I looked at her raising the brows.

"You mean I have to find the models?" She asked in confusion tone.

"Uhh-huh good luck on your second assignment" I replied, her mouth hanging open like she doesn't want to do but if she wants the job she has to do it anyway.

She joined here almost a week ago, I didn't want a secretary but Chris advised me to have one it will make things easier for me but it didn't seem like his advice is working but she just joined so I can't blame her as her boss I must teach her things.

Not just because of Chris's advice I given her job, her design blown my mind away so at least I could give her a chance to prove herself.

I Went to the house it was already time for dinner and the beautiful smell was coming out from the kitchen.

Chris was standing in front of the counter, stirring the vegetables in the pan, I silently walked towards him and warmly hugged him and placed my head on his shoulder he returns my gesture by kissing me deep on lips.

Usually, I make dinner for both of us but seeing him cooking was a little weird for me he never stepped inside of Kitchen to make food but just to eat.

"You were a little late so I decided to make something to eat" he explains, seeing my silence.

"Aww so sweet" I tease and he chuckles.

"You might be tired so go and take a bath then we will talk," he told and I nodded before heading back to our room.

I throw my clothes on the floor and went inside the bathroom and opened the shower tap letting the water wet my body, I took the soap and gently rub on the body.

I feel rough but warm hands on my waist that made me turn around and saw Chris was smirking and standing half-naked. When he came inside?

"Ohh man, Can't you wait till night?" I asked teasingly and he shook his head before placing soft kisses on my neck and shoulders.

I was moaning loud with his every touch that was melting me under him.

After the shower, We sat on dining chairs and talked about what happened today.

"I am happy you safely dropped her home I was thinking to call a rose," Chris says, eating his Chicken.

"Please don't embarrass me, Chris, she's my daughter as well " I reply, he smiled widely.

"I always knew but today you proved to me that you are better in everything than my ex-wife," He said and I nodded.

A wave of worry rush over my face" What happened, Xavier? Are you okay?" He asks, gently placing his palm on top of my hand.

"I am afraid that Rose might accept me at her mom's place or I might fail to give her enough love that she needed " I replied looking down at my plate.

I heard him shrugged" Come on, Xavier stops over thinking I am damn sure rose will accept you and you will give her more than enough love " He tried to assure me and squeezed my hand lightly, I give him a small smile.

But I know only time will give my questions answers and I will wait and will try my best.
