Chapter 17 - CHAPTER 17..DINNER PREPARATIONS 1

The Next Day...

The chefs brought trays of many dishes to Lexa's room, arranging it on her table. Lexa, woke up to her head pounding greatly as a result of not eating yesterday. She opened and rubbed her eyes slowly and lazily as she saw the chefs arranging different varieties of dishes on her table.

Toasted bread, samosas, scrambled eggs, bacons, sausages, coffee, orange juice and water were carefully arranged on her table as her chefs turned to leave after greeting her.

"Good morning my Lady, your breakfast is served and we'll bring you brunch in three hours time. I'm really sorry ma'am but Sir Cameron ordered me to lock the door after serving your food. He announced that you are not to step out today.. I'm really really sorry ma'am". The chief chef said looking down remorsefully.

"It's alright dear, you don't have to be sorry, I clearly understand. Thank you for breakfast also" Lexa said smiling slightly. She knew Cameron had ordered them to lock her up because of what transpired two days before, but she didn't mind, it wasn't the first time he was locking her up and to think he even starved her all through yesterday, she wasn't surprised, atleast he let them serve her food today.

She lazily got up from her bed and went into her bathroom to shower, after dressing up she sat down and began eating her breakfast. She ate in so much hurry as her tummy rumbled in extreme hunger. After breakfast, she searched for her phone before taking it to charge after it had completely drained out, before relaxing on her bed and sketching an imagine in her head.

_______________

Cameron ,coming out from the venue of his board meeting, with a slight smirk on his face walked up to his secretary's table and ordered him to call both his parents and his in-laws, inviting them for dinner at his house tomorrow evening. He smiled as he continues remembering the brilliant advice Alex gave him. He stopped at a mall to get a bouquet for Lexa before heading home. He was going to tell her about the plans to go for a vacation at Tokyo, of course he wasn't going to tell her they were relocating, she might runaway again to be with her ex boyfriend but he won't let that happen again this time around, not minding if she agrees or not, whether she likes the idea or not, his mind is made up and she can't seem to do anything to change that. He has already invited their families over to a dinner tomorrow, so surely this plan will definitely work.

______________Back At The Mansion..

"Hey darling, how are you doing today". Cameron said walking into the room sighting Lexa having dinner.

"I left while you were still sleeping. I can see your eating now, that's cute" He continued mockingly.

"Well, I should really go on my knees and now my head at your feet in appreciation to you. Who knows, I might have as well starved to death...so I'm really indepted to you, you know" Lexa replied mockingly as well, without looking up from her food.

"Hmmm, I know what you did there, but I forgive you. I had a good day today and I won't let your tantrums ruin my mood darling. By the way, I bought you this. I told you I'm not a beast right? You cried bitterly yesterday and you completed your strike beautifully atleast you didn't make a fuss on that, so this is for a job well done". Cameron said smirking slightly before dropping the flower on the table.

"Well, I'm pretty sure I don't need a gift for completing a task I was forced to do and also forced to complete right?. By the way, a silly slut like me doesn't receive gifts. So you can as well keep your beautiful flower to your beast-less self. That should make you really proud and also boost your ego, waking up every morning reminding yourself how much of a non-beast you are. And please lock the door from the outside on your way out, this bitch needs to stay locked up so she doesn't elope with her ex. Thank you". Lexa replied sarcastically, as she got on her bed covering herself with a duvet.

"Well, I'm not here for your silly sarcasm. So I forgive you again. I want to tell you that I have invited both our parents for dinner tomorrow, I am planning a honey moon for us at Tokyo, actually more of a vacation, we might spend 3 months or even longer, so I want to inform your family and mine at dinner tomorrow. So I expect you to be in your best behavior, don't annoy me tomorrow so I won't be forced to do something silly to you. Put on your best dress, a pretty smile and apply makeup to those scars. We really don't want them asking a whole bunch of questions right? I won't say anything about your escape plan, as you won't say anything about what happened yesterday, clear?. We are a family, and families have their little problems and sort it out between themselves, they don't go snitching on each other. So I expect you to be a good girl tomorrow". Cameron said before standing to leave. He didn't bother locking her inside this time.
