Chapter 20 - What a tease

The next morning Sara woke up and tried to get out of bed but found that she was trapped by an arm. She suddenly realized that she was in bed. 'How did I get here?' she thought as she shifted to face the owner of the arm. She looked at Sean's face to see the dark circles still under his eyes like he didn't sleep at all. She took in the perfectly chiseled face and the deep brown eyes. 'Wait he's awake!!!' "Good morning" Sean's voice soft and gentle rang in her ears. He moved his arm off of her and she scurried out of bed to see that she was still dressed. After heaving a sigh of relief she realized that he was still looking at her. She ran to the bathroom, only to hear his deep laughter ring out behind her.

After taking a shower, Sara peeked out the door to see the bedroom was empty. She walked into the closet to run into a wall of flesh. Sara immediately looked up at the mans chest when she saw the scar marks lining his upper body. She subconsciously reached out and started to trace one of them not seeing the growing desire in the mans eyes. 'How can a successful businessman have so many scars.' "Sara" Sean's hoarse voice caused Sara hand to freeze as she looked up at him. Sara blushed when she realized what she had done. "Sorry I'll get changed." She quickly dropped her arm before bolting through the divide separating his closet from hers. Sean stood there dumbfounded 'what a tease!' Then he put his shirt on before heading out.

When Sara finally came down for breakfast she looked and saw Sean sitting there reading one of his foreign papers. She sat down opposite of him as the food was already served. She looked at him before asking, "what time is it?" Sean calmly set the paper down before looking at his watch. "9:45" he calmly said. "Don't you have to go to work! You just came out publicly as the CEO of Dearborn" Sean chuckled at Sara's exclamation. "The company has run without me for 4 months perfectly fine and finalized a takeover deal with Barton without me. Also if you go back to the press conference yesterday I introduced myself as chairman and founder, not as CEO. Later today Dearborn will announce a new permanent CEO." Sean said casually before picking the paper back up. Sara's fork froze in midair as he finished his sentence before looking at him. "So what will you do?"

"Well my wife wants to start a jewelry company so I will naturally assist her in that venture. However today I need to do some shopping before we visit the elders." Sean said before folding the paper and pulling out his phone and making a call in a foreign language. After Sara finished eating she started to head upstairs before Sean's voice rang out, "where are you going?" Sara stopped halfway up the stairs before turning and responding, "To change. I can't meet you family looking like this." Sean chuckled in response, "you're now married to the most powerful man in the business world. Anyone who dares talk bad about you doesn't want to make money. Those meaningless people need to impress you not the other way around. Also your gorgeous just the way you are. Now let's go." Sean then turned around and headed outside ignoring whatever response Sara might have. Sara was stunned at his words as she looked down at her simple T-shirt and jeans before sighing and heading out side after him.

The car quickly made its way to Northbeach Mall which was home to all of the luxury brands. After Sean got out of the car he pulled out a red card from his wallet. He handed it to Sara before saying, "this card will allow you to buy anything in the mall. They'll send me the bill every month." Sara looked at the card before responding, "you don't own this place? I thought you came here cause you owned it." Sean chuckled, "in fact I do own the mall but the vendors still have wages to pay. I can't take from them freely or they'll lose money." Sean then grabbed her hand before leading her to a jewelry store. He whispered in her ear "wait here for me." Then Sean nodded at a gentleman who came out of the back of the store before being led into a room.

After a while of waiting Sean emerged from the room with a thin black box in his hands before walking up to Sara. "Where would you like to go next." He spoke as he looked down at her. Sara quickly averted her eyes from his in case she was trapped by the brown orbs again. She started to walk out with Sean following. After a few minutes of walking through the mall Sara walked into a home decoration store. Sean smiled as he saw where she walked into. Before Sara touched anything she heard Sean say to someone, "is Jasmine here?" Sara turned to see a member of staff quickly respond, "one second sir." before they quickly walked to the back. Sara snorted before she spoke, "seems like you know a lot of rich women." Sean chuckled at her words before rubbing her head, "Silly woman. Jasmine decorated the house. She's just an interior decorator that I trust to ensure my privacy is maintained." As he was talking a middle aged woman walked over, "Sean so go to see you again, what can I do for you? I thought you were satisfied with the final product in Arlington Hills." Sean smiled at the woman, "I was but it seems it doesn't suit my wife. I'll let you talk to her and begin the renovation. Remember our previous arrangement." The woman nodded at Sean's words before turning to Sara. "Oh what a beautiful woman, Hi I'm Jasmine. Let's go into my office and we can look over the house plans." Jasmine said with a huge smile on her face as she saw Sara, before dragging her into an office and the two began to work on the house renovations.

After a while Sara walked out of the room satisfied with the results that the two women had come up with to see the sight that made her rage inside. Sean was standing by the entrance when a young woman ran up to him and hugged him. She immediately planted a kiss on Sean's cheek as Sean smiled at her. The two talked for a minute before Sara walked over with rage visibly shown on her face. She immediately grabbed Sean's arm, "Honey" Sara said her voice soft and sweet, "who is this?" The words caused the mystery woman, who Sara had to admit was gorgeous, to freeze and lose her smile. The woman spoke first, "Sean, who is this?" Her voice filled it disdain, while her eyes were practically stabbing Sara. Sean coughed sensing the tension, "Monica this is my wife Sara. Sara this is Monica my sister."

The air between the women froze as both women's rage seem to subside as Monica was first to break. She smiled widely before looking at Sean, "do mom and dad know. They're going to be elated at this news. A woman finally captured your heart. It's a miracle!" She exclaimed almost shouting causing Sara to smile at her words. Sara spoke up next, "I'm sorry for the misunderstanding I just saw you hugging my husband so I had to step in." Monica smiled even wider, "oh no honey. Protect what's yours. I'm just glad it's someone other than Samantha." Sean looked at his watch before interrupting the women, "Monica we have to go see the Elders now. So scram or do you want me to drag you along." Monica's face paled immediately, "I'm gone I'm gone. Don't tell mom you saw me please" she begged Sean who smiled at her. "Alright stay out of trouble and get back to school by Sunday." Monica immediately scampered off after the pardon from her brother.

Sara patted Sean's chest, leaning her head on his shoulder, as they began to walk out, "I like her. She seems like a lot of fun." Sean chuckled before responding, "if the brat wouldn't run away from university what seems like every week." Sara smiled "what's she studying" Sean rubbed her head as they walked out of the mall, "funny that you ask. She's working on her masters in jewelry design." Sara pondered his words before saying, "I'd like to hire her" Sean chuckled before getting into the waiting car with her, "whatever my wife wants."
