"I heard a lot about you." Mr. Harlow suddenly interrupt. I glance at him and smile.
What the hell! I feel so uncomfortable especially my parents is not on my side. My mom suddenly felt going to bathroom and my dad accompanied her. That's why I left alone talking to the Harlow family.
"Ummm, thank you?" I hesitantly replied. I don't know what to say. I blush when he suddenly laugh. Why is he laughing?
"Don't you care if its good or bad?" Mr. Harlow asked after his laugh.
"I don't care, but if they judge my looks and say that I'm ugly, I definitely kick their ass off." I answer full of honesty.
They suddenly become silent, The Harlow family is looking at me so intently including that bastard. I sigh and continue talking.
"Don't get me wrong, I inherited my mom's beauty, so if anyone insulted my beauty its like they also insulted my mom. I don't know, I just felt that way." I shrugged and look away.
"You really inherited her beauty, but the way you express your self, that's very Alex Zander." Mrs. Harlow commented with a smile on her lips. A very sweet one.
"Thank you, but I wish I also inherited my moms kindness." I said pouting looking at Mrs. Harlow.
Mr. Harlow laugh. The first son of Harlow family also laugh a little and that bastard is smirking again. I just rolled my eyes at him and look at Mr. Harlow.
"So you are not kind?" Mr. Harlow ask. I smile devilishly to him.
"I mean I got my fathers attitude so I'm not that kind sir. But I'm not that bitch also." I stated. My parents are coming so I can now get away from this bastard.
"Sorry for that, here's our gift." my mom politely give the brown envelope. The butler got it and gave it to Mr. Harlow.
Mr. Harlow opened it. Mrs. Harlow eyes was so full of happiness while looking at the document. Mr. Harlow also look so pleased. The two sons look at each other then smirk. Seems like they all like our gift.
I know that our gift is a property. One of my dads property.
"Dude, are you serious about this?" Mr. Harlow said while looking at my dad. My dad just nodded and gesture to quiet.
Don't you dare tell me, don't tell me? That property is that property? Oh! My gosh! I look angrily at my dad.
"Don't tell me, that property is..." I still not finish what I suppose to say when my dad nodded effortlessly.
"Dad!" I raised my voice. That made the Harlow family look at us. I love that property. I am looking forward to build my mansion to that property.
My dad look at me coolly while my mom looking at my dad emotionless. I look in front and the Harlow family is staring at us.
"You are really annoying." I said full of resentment. I bow down a little to Harlow family and excuse myself.
"Whats wrong?" I heard Mrs. Harlow asked while I was walking away. Damn! So really annoying! Why does he have to give the property that I love?
I go out and went to the garden of the hotel. I used the back door of the hotel connected to the garden. I sat on the bench and just stare the wide swimming pool.
Why? Why does he have to give that property? Is he provoking me?
I heard a footsteps. I turned back to see who is it. Unluckily it was my father. I rolled my eyes at him. When he already reach my area. I threw my questions.
"You, out of all people know how much I love that property of yours. Why? Why did you do that?" I never met with his eyes. I'm just looking down.
"They like that property." he said. I felt him sitting beside me.
"Well, guess what. I love that property. I love the view of the sea, I love the smell of tree, I love how the air is fresh from the forest. I love everything about it. Do you know that I am planning to build my home there. " I said still looking down.
"Why? Why did you do that?" he suddenly asked.
I guess he found out. He is smart after all.
"Ah, that hidden investigation? I did that because I'm suspecting you having an affair." I confess
I look at him, his handsome face is so serious and unreadable. I don't know what his thinking. He stood up and shake his head.
"I'm disappointed on you Alice Sylvan. But for you to stop, I'm not having an affair." he firmly said and turned his back on me.
"Hide your third lady well father. And please go home at the right time, your hurting my mom, your wife. You'll regret it if she leaves you." I didn't turn my back at all to see my fathers reaction. I just heard his footstep, until his footstep is no where to be heard.
I sign so deeply, why is this happening? I don't even felt sorry for what I did to my father. I stood up and walk towards tge swimming pool.
"We meet again."
A sudden voice spoke behind me that made me damn so shock. I lost my balance and boom! I fell on the swimming pool.
"Damn." i heard that Amadeus Asher cursed.
I immediately stood up, luckily I fell on the lower side of the swimming pool. I look at him so angrily.
"I didn't expect that you will react that way. I'm sorry." that bastard Asher said and offered his hand to me. I held his hand and forcely pull him.
He also fell in the swimming pool. I left the swimming pool. Oh! My gosh! I felt so damn cold.
"What's wrong with you?" he asked when he finally get up. But I'm too busy to warm myself to bitch him out.
"Damn! It's cold." I murmur to myself. He left the swimming pool and walk towards me. I eyed him so coldly.
"This is damn your fault." I said to him
"I already say sorry, but what did you do?! You drag me down." he reasoned out. He take off his coat and remove its water that comes from the swimming pool.
"Damn you." I just replied and turned my back to walk away from him. I'm going home. The wind blows and damn. IT'S SO COLD! I shivers.
But I stop from walking when suddenly a warm hand travels to my stomach, a warm body conquered my back.
That damn bastard Asher is hugging me from the back! The wind blows much stronger this time and it's so damn cold! I shiver much stronger this time. That wind made his hug tighter and made me hold his hand for warmth! He is so warm
I have goosebumps when he suddenly whisper on my ears.
"I think your enjoying this." he said and I bet all of my fortune he is smirking. I hit his abdomen by my elbow. He said ouch that made his hug loose.
I move away from him and face him with full of sarcasm.
"Enjoying? Just so you know jerk! You are the one who hug me first."
"But you didn't resist it. You even hold my hand." that bastard said. I moved closer to him and just gave him a smile.
"I just hold your hand because I'm too cold. Don't damn give a meaning every moves I make. Bastard!" I confidently said but the damn wind just blown stronger than the last.
It made me shiver again. I'm too weak when it comes to cold. I sniffle and cough a bit. Damn!
"Is there anyway besides that back door that connected to the parking lot?" I sniffle again. I was shivering because of too much cold.
He shake his head, meaning there's no way. Damn it! I have no choice to just walk to that backdoor. I don't care if anyone sees me wet.
I sign and was about to walk away, when he held my hands. I raised my brow and get my hands back.
"Are you going to walk wearing that?" he pointed my dress, I look at my dress. They are still fine. So I nodded. I sniffle again and cough.
"What the! Your bra is showing!" he exclaimed. He put his coat on me. I look at my dress. I don't really see it.
He fix his coat on me. After he did it. I look at him unbelievably.
"Really? Or you just teasing me?"
I hug myself when the cold breeze of air blows again. He went closer to me and no warning warning, he damn hug me again. My face is damn on his chest! I hate to admit it but he is really so warm! And he smells so good!
"What the hell!" I just utter while sniffle and coughing.
His hug tighter. I'm shivering.
"I'm doing a body warm. Don't make a meaning of this." he sounds so cocky.
I just let him hug me, its just too cold when he is not hugging me. I sniffle again. I move closer to him.
"Do you really see my bra?" I asked out of curiosity.
He sigh.
"You said my bra is showing, but I didn't see what you saw. So I'm just wondering if you are just teasing me." I sniffle and cough again. He is really so warm.
"Yes, it is showing. So shut up."
"Really? Then what is the color of my bra?" I challenge him. He is just teasing me.
"Its color damn red so shut up and just appreciate my warmth." he said that made me widen my eyes. My bra is damn red
I push him away. I look at him with wide eyes.
"Why the hell you just said that now! Oh! Its cold! I exclaimed when the cold air blows again. He just eyed me ruthlessly and rolled his eyes.
I sat down and just hug myself. Its really so cold. I sniffle again and cough. Asher also sat down. Our eyes met but I just rolled mine.
He offered his hand again. I look at him and raise ny brow.
"Let's go to a different place, something that has heater." he said while looking at me.
"Where is it?" I curiously ask.
"Just get my hand." he grumpily said.
Its just too cold so I just held his hand. He help me to stand uo. He fix his coat again for me. He pull me closer to him and his one hand traveled to my waist while the other one was on his side.
I never complain because his body gives me a lot of warmth. I just love how warm he is.
"So your name is Amadeus Asher. You have a beautiful name but a bastard attitude." I commented while walking. He just threw a dangerous look.
I sniffle again and cough much harder this time. I think I catch a damn cold.
