Hazel's POV
"Hey wait,you are walking too damn fast"We were going to the garage and I was trying to catch up with him,he ignored me and kept walking,I glared at him,but kept walking till we got there.
Woah.
His garage,more like parking lot was filled with cars,why was I even surprised,he is a billionaire for God's sake,he got into a car whose brand I had no idea of but it looked really expensive and chic and he started the engine,he didn't even make a move to get the car door for me like a proper gentleman would do.
Right,he wasn't one.
"You are quite the Gentleman I see"I batted my lashes sweetly at him.
"Shut up,your presence is already so annoying,don't make this worse by talking."
"You are forgetting that I'm your Fiancee"I was getting tired of his shit already.
"Fake Fiancee"he sneered at me"stop feeling special when you are not".
Ouch.
I got to admit,i felt somewhat offended by what he said.
"That's the more reason why you should treat me better,you need me"it was my turn to smirk,while he muttered some curses,few minutes later he pulled up at an expensive looking boutique,I turned to him in confusion.
"What are we doing here? This doesn't look like your family house" he sighed annoyed and rubbed his temples.
"I can't introduce you as my fiancee to my parents with you looking like that"he gestured to my clothing.
"Excuse me? My clothes are comfortable for me,don't insult me"I said frowning.
"Yeah sure" he said deadpanned"but I can't have you looking classless by my side".
This man-
"Get out of the car"and with that he opened his side of the door and strode away,I disliked him even more now,he never misses a chance to downgrade and insult me,I calmed myself down before getting out,I followed him closely,the buffed up security guards bowed their head when they sighted us,we got in and a plum woman with a really tight bun,very stylish dress that I'd never want to try and bold red lips came towards us with a big smile on her face,I squinted my eyes,she could easily do a commercial for a toothpaste brand.
Damn those white teeth.
"Welcome Monsieur Blackwood"she bowed her head "What can I get you today,we have a new brand of Boolern Suits for you to try out,I specially hand pic - "
"Not me,her"Xavier pointed at me,her eyes moved to me and they widened in shock,she was just noticing my presence,she gave me a once over and her face immediately scrunched up in disgust.
Why did my clothes bother these people so much.
"Pardon me for not noticing your presence, err mademoiselle..?"
"Hazel"I smiled as I curtsied,her smile faltered and was replaced with a confused look,Xavier looked at me like I had grown two horns.
Ahh,I shouldn't have done that.
"I'm sorry"I chuckled nervously,she nodded a bit unsure of what to reply.
"Please make her look nice and more presentable"Xavier said,I opened my mouth to retort when the wind was knocked out of my oesophagus,the French lady literally dragged me and threw me inside a fitting room,almost immediately,five girls rushed to me and started doing all sorts of scary stuffs to me,I was given facials,a body scrub and I was freaking waxed,all without my consent.
"Would you like me to cut your hair and what style would you like?"a stylish looking man with a bunch of scissors and other tools that looked like something out of a horror movie asked,I shook my head for no,he decided to style it anyways and did a few snips here and there,a lady came by and applied all sorts of makeup products on my face and finally,I was given a red short dress which hugged my body,I looked in the mirror and for the first time in my life,I actually looked pretty,I gawked at my reflection,my formerly pale,now golden blonde hair cascaded down my back to my waist in soft natural looking curls,my face looked defined and the make up was not so much and it was flawless,the dress was really beautiful,I fought the urge to ask how everything was done,I now understood how Cinderella must have felt when fairy godmother sprinkled a few fairy dust on her and changed her worn clothes to whatever she wore to the gala.
Or was it a masquerade ball?
I put on black heels and was given a black channel bag to compliment the shoes completing the whole look,I stepped out trying not to wobble like an earth worm.
Xavier tapped away on his phone and he was leaning back on the chair in his dark blue shirt with sleeves rolled up and dark pants,he looking breathtakingly gorgeous and he wasn't even trying,I caught a few attendants ogling at him, whispering among theirselves, probably saying dirty things,I couldn't blame them,the man was too handsome for his own good,the only problem was his shitty attitude,I cleared my throat to get his attention,he paused and looked up at me,his face was devoid of emotions,if he was pleased,he didn't move a muscle on his perfect face to show it.
"Do you like the transformation sir?" The lady with bright teeth asked,he simply nodded.
"Your friend made it easy to pick an outfit,her shape is quite alluring with curves in the right places"She smiled at him,she was trying to catch his attention by flattering me.
"She is my fiancee"he said and held my hand and led me out,I didn't miss the shocked look on her face and those who heard,he let go of my hand immediately we were out like it burned him.
I wish it did.
"Alright let's get our story right,we met at a coffee shop where you were a waitress,we have been dating for three months and that's it,no contradictions"he said immediately we were sitted in his car,I nodded already bored from all the instructions he had been giving, something was bothering.
"Erm,what are your parents like?"he smirked a bit.
"My mum is cool,but my Dad is going to give you a hard time"I gulped totally dreading whatever was going to happen,I put my hand on my chest to calm my racing heart,I kept reminding my self that a million dollars was worth this,my life depended on this.
