Chereads / Marriage Deal / Chapter 25 - 25

Chapter 25 - 25

Xavier

I decided to go along with the plan since I had no other choice but to do it. I waited in front of the house for Calvina to cone home so I could activate my plan but she came home together with a very angry Marcel.

Calvina: Marcel calm down. I'm sure its a mistake.

Marcel: No its not. I woke up and she was gone. She left me in the room all alone.

Marcel stormed past me and Calvina stood by the door. I looked at her to see her in a very tired state but it was cute though.

Calvina: Would you stop staring. Its giving me goosebumps.

Xavier: Well forgive me for appreciating nature.

Calvina: Excuse me?

Xavier: You're cute. Do you know that.

Calvina: Excuse you? What happened to you?

Xavier: No I'm okay. I'm being serious. You look very cute up close.

Calvina: I don't have time for this. I'm going after Marcel.

She left me standing there then Caroline came up to me.

Caroline: Why were you flirting with her?

Xavier: Oh I didn't see you there. What's wrong with me flirting with her?

Caroline: In case you haven't noticed you guys were married on a business arrangement. Don't try to get handsy with her.

Xavier: Well if trying to get handsy with my wife is a bad thing why don't you try and make her your wife.

Caroline: Her dad will never accept us. I think he has a thing for me but I brushed it off.

Xavier: Oh really. I thought Cal didn't want to marry you. Anyway it looks like my wife is feeling tired so let me go make her comfortable.

I whispered the last part in her ears and got the reaction I wanted. She looked so pissed that I nearly run from her. My heart was pounding so hard as I walked away from her.

Caroline: I won't count on that if I were you. I'm a patient player in this game.

I walked away quickly and got into my room. I picked up my phone and called Brad and he picked it up.

Brad: What's the matter dude?

Xavier: She's creepy. I mean how did James manage to survive her for two years.

Brad: Are you asking me? How will I know.  We were in China together and you fell in love with her without meeting her in person and argued with James and a whole other....

Xavier: No need to remind me of that geez. It was stupid crush and you know that?

Brad: Really? You know I won't agree to that. You fell in love with her without meeting her. You are ridiculous.

Xavier: Says the one who needed help with his boyfriend.

Brad: When did I need help? Look Xavier I know you can do this okay. Just flirt with her and we'll handle the rest.

Xavier: But Brad....

Brad: Don't worry. I have your back. Everything would soon be over. I love you idiot.

Xavier: I love you too dimwit.

He ended the call and sighed. This was going to be a long day. I looked at my open door and saw a shadow in the doorway. I got up to check but found no one which is strange because I felt someone watching me. I brushed it off then I heard the sound of a mirror breaking inside Marcel's room and sighed.

Calvina

Marcel broke the mirror in front of me and I became scared. I tried calming her down but it wasn't working.

Calvina: Marcel please calm down. I'm sure it was something urgent.

Marcel: Don't try to cover for her. I thought it was work but it turns out she isn't there at all.

Calvina: Marcel please she didn't mean it. Give her sometime okay. I need you to try and calm down for her.

Marcel: She left me after our first date. I actually felt like she was the one.

Calvina: You might get to meet her tomorrow. She'll definitely come to work.

Marcel: Okay I'm calm. Sorry for overreacting like that.

Calvina: Are you really apologising? I would've done the same thing.

Marcel: You wish. I just.... I just  want her to see she's doing things to me that I can't explain. I think I love her Cal.

Calvina: Don't get too worked up. What did you tell her?

Marcel: I didn't mean to but it came out of my lips. I told her I loved her.

Calvina: So you think you freaked her out?

Marcel: I don't think I know I freaked her out. How can you tell a girl you just met you love her?

Calvina: I did. But it was a guy not a girl so sorry.

Marcel: You're crazy. You know that.

Calvina: And so are you. You scared the poor girl away. Why did you say that?

Marcel: I was lost in the moment. I just said it. I didn't know it'll freak her out. I thought she felt the same.

Calvina: Well I didn't know you fell that hard but don't worry she'll come around.

Marcel: I'm sure I freaked her out. She wouldn't even want to be friends anymore.

Calvina: If she didn't want you would she have given you her body? I know you guys had sex.

Marcel: Erm...how did you know? Did she tell you?

Calvina: But I have my ways. I'm telling you not to worry okay. She'll definitely come around.

Marcel: Ugh fine. I heard what Xavier said outside. Is he flirting with you?

Calvina: I have no idea it just came out of his mouth. I'm confused as to what to do.

I helped Marcel to her bed and started treating her wounds.

Marcel: Then you better be careful around Carol. I don't want you getting hurt again.

Calvina: I'll try Marcel. But you gotta help me. You promised.

Marcel: And I'll keep it till the end.

She hugged me and o hugged her back. She's one of my best friends I could ever ask for.
