In the middle of the dinner, Ambrose was dressed in a cool black T-shirt which is just bodycon type on his figure and making his body look more alluring, his long legs holding the black trousers which is design with white straps on it and a stylish pair of shoes and crossing his legs as he was seated on a leather couch in one of the trending clubs in London, he was having a drink with the investors as he frequently raised the glass of whiskey to his mouth and took a sip from it.
From the corner of his eye, he noticed Adriana getting a little "touchy-feely" with one of the investors and it happened to be the one who had complimented her during the meeting.
He was annoyed but was also impassive, he didn't care about her or what she does with her life. He realised that he never truly loved her and wouldn't have gotten married to her if she hadn't been pregnant.
Just as he was deep in thoughts, a new guest arrives in a fancy car, and grabbed all the attention as she steps out of her car, taking slow steps into the club, her long legs in display, her heels clicking on the tiles, her dress brought out the power of visual appeal and wooed any man that glances her side. Her appearance was classy and sexy.
Ambrose slowly glanced up and he was blinded by what he saw, when he laid his eyes on her dressed in a classy black dress that covers her arms completely and flows down into a very deep V-line and it adds focus to her breasts without looking sloppy. The dress was a bodycon and it reached down on her thighs with a split on the side that exposed her long sexy legs and added more elegance to it. Her brown hair was packed into a ponytail, exposing her creamy neck and to top it all off, she was wearing phantom heels that matched the dress. Ambrose's thoughts flew away in the wind and his desire awakened.
His mouth watered and he could feel his muscles tensed, and almost instantly his body was attracted to her like a magnet.
Her eyes met with his. Holding it for a few seconds before dropping her gaze while chewing on her bottom lip then the corner of her mouth turned up into a coy smile as she slowly dragged her eyes back up to meet him again.
She glanced at the men surrounding Ambrose and approached them. Putting on a flirty smile.
" Ah, who is this beauty from the sky, Ambrose? " A man with blonde hair, almost white, said as he stood up and grabbed her hands and placed a small kiss on her knuckles.
Ambrose's eyes noticed the men's gaze landing on Nova's legs. He didn't know or understand why but he became frustrated and angry with the kind of smile that crept on one of the investors lips.
" I'm Nova Clifford and also a shareholder in Grey Enterprise. " Nova introduced herself with a smile.
" It's a pleasure to meet you, tesoro ( sweetheart) " He replied, ending his sentence with an Italian word. " You can call me Lorenzo "
Ambrose never felt so annoyed before, ever in his entire life like now. Her beautiful long legs, her slender arms and slim waist and her full breasts. Everything was enough to make anyone go mad.
He had to keep his jaw from dropping and tightened his mouth from drooling seeing Nova in her sexy dress. With all his attention fixed on her, Ambrose almost forgot to blink his eyes. He sat stunned and admiration was plastered all over his face. The air in the room suddenly felt hot and he could feel the heat spreading through his body that he almost got a boner.
Ambrose cursed when he noticed so many men ogling at Nova. He wanted to remove his shirt, cover Nova's body and hide it from all the eyes fixed on her inside the VIP section of the club.
He tried to compose himself and calm down his hot nerves but none of it was possible. He was really shocked. He felt things he had never felt for any woman not even when it came to Adriana. He felt possessive. He was possessive of her!
Adriana squinted her eyes and clenched her teeth when she saw Nova walk in and all attention on the table drifted to her. Nova had beautiful long legs and a nice shape and Adriana couldn't help but feel jealous, as she would be defeated by her elegance and legs if she was compared with her.
She saw Ambrose go stiff and frozen in place as his gaze never left Nova's. She clenched her fist and gnashed her teeth in irritation.
"What the hell does this bitch think she is doing?" She wanted to pounce on her, pull her hair off and tear that dress off her body.
"Trying to seduce my husband. Just how many guts does she have? "
" You're such a beauty, tesoro. " The man suddenly broke the silence by complimenting Nova.
" Grazie ( Thank you) " Nova replied with a smile and glanced at Ambrose with the corner of her eyes and her smile deepened when she saw a sweat starting to form on his forehead as he stared at her.
Nova took her seat opposite Ambrose on the leather couch and slowly brought up her left leg and placed it on the other, showing the appearance of her highly toned muscles.
" I would like to know you a little better. Why don't I give you my number? " The man asked, he was obviously driven by lust.
Ambrose almost choked with his own saliva and abruptly coughed to clear his throat.
" I don't think she's that kind of girl, Lorenzo. " Ambrose buried in with a twitched lip.
" How is your son, Nova? " Adriana asked Nova, diverting the atmosphere in a different direction.
Nova raised an eyebrow but answered, " He is doing fine. "
" I'm sure he will be since you decided to hide the fact that you're a single mother from us. " She said without even the slightest pretence at friendliness. Her eyes bore holes at Nova.
Nova knows that women like her are hard to deal with. Why? Because they hate losing over to an ordinary woman, like her, since they already think too highly of themselves. She is a woman who wants to be at the top and who wants to get what she wants even if it means hurting another person in the process. She bet that her evil sister is even planning something sinister against her in her head for getting everyone's attention and her husband's.
" Why don't we focus on our success instead of intervening into other people's personal lives? " Ambrose voiced out.
Adriana frowned at him for talking to her the way he did in front of other people.
Nova smiled but something suddenly caught her attention or rather someone. She thought she recognized someone she'd seen previously, but the woman vanished in the blink of an eye.
Was she being followed by someone that knows her? Because if she isn't, then why is she suddenly having this weird sensation that something is about to happen and it will ruin her plans.
