Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Get dressed. I’m sending Nick over to pick you up for the shopping’ Lisa read through the text Xander had just sent to her, and rolled her eyes as she dropped her phone on her bed. She had earlier sent him a text that she couldn’t go alone for the shopping. “Finally! I’m going to meet his ghost assistant,” She breathed out as she stood from the bed and proceeded to get dressed since she had her bathe earlier. don’t need to dress so classy since it’s just shopping,” She muttered as she checked herself out in the mirror. She was cladded in a long black jeans trouser and a beautiful pink top. Her hair was tightly packed up in a ponytail, and a little or no make-up was on her face. “look gorgeous.” She gushed over her beauty as she cupped her cheeks in her palms, admiring herself. The knock on the door caught her attention, and she squinted her eyebrows confusingly. Ella had gone to school, so she was definitely not expecting her, and no way Nick already arrived when he just got a text from Xander barely five minutes ago, yeah? “Who is there?” “it’s me, ma’am. Mr. Xander’s personal assistant is here to see you,” Phoebe’s voice sounded from outside, and Lisa pulled a puzzled look. “So soon? That was fast,” She muttered then looked at the door and continued, “I’ll be there with him shortly.” Lisa concluded that Phoebe already left after she heard the lading footsteps from outside. “Perfect!” Just a glance at herself in the mirror was what she needed to do before she finally stepped out of her room. “Phoebe. Where is Nick?” She asked as soon as she arrived at the living room and didn’t see a trace of Nick. “He’s at the parking lot, ma’am,” “Alright. I’m stepping out for a moment. Take care of the house,” She finally advanced toward the
door. The fresh air outside graced her as she stepped out of the building and walked elegantly toward the parking lot, but she paused abruptly when she saw the man standing beside a car parked at the parking lot. Her jaw dropped open and her eyes narrowed in shock. It was literally her first time seeing a man who was as good looking as her brother. His height, his s**y modeled yet manly body, his brown eyes, pointed nose, thick eyebrows, full thick black beards, oval shaped face, and thick black shiny hair were the definition of perfection. Her heart raced fast as she stared at this man who had captured her everything without doing nothing, her stomach was filled with butterflies. “Good morning. Ms Hughes. My name is Nick… It’s nice to meet you. Your brother asked me to come pick you up.” And when she heard her voice, her heart melted in her chest. His deep baritone yet sweet and soothing voice was everything for Lisa, and she could literally kill to hear him speak all day. “Oh… Hi!” Her voice came out shaky as she extended her hand for a handshake, and when their skin made a contact, Lisa felt this spark within her “It’s nice to meet you, Nick. You can just call me Lisa,” She smiled nervously and swallowed nothing. “Hmm… Shall we?” He quickly retracted his hand then pulled the car door open and turned to her with a look on his face that explained “let’s go. she dragged herself to the car and hopped in the backseat. Nick went to hop in the “Oh… Yes, we should get going.” Her voice sounded nervous as she d driver’s seat after he closed the door behind her 11-19 Wed, 12 Jul Chapter 44 “Where are we going, ma’am?” He looked at her through the rearview mirror. “Uhm… To the mall. The big city mall,” That was all Nick needed need to start the car and began the ride.
.76% Lisa tried to take her eyes off this handsome man, but no matter how hard she tried to, it just didn’t work. She could already fantasize her future with this man. Yes, it was love at first sight for her. It’s crazy how this was happening to the lady who never believed in love at first sight. “We are here, ma’am,” Nick’s voice disrupted her thoughts minutes later, and that was when she realized that she had been staring at him all the time before they arrived at the mall. “Oh… We are here?” She chuckled dryly as she looked out through the window and nodded briefly. Lisa sat in the car, unable to move neither could she get her eyes off him. She knew that this might make him feel uncomfortable, but she couldn’t help herself. Who the f**k was this man? Where was he from? How come Xander was keeping such a handsome man as his assistant? “Ma’am…” She looked beside her and realized that he was holding the car door open for her. “Oh… Thank you,” She muttered nervously as she stepped out of the car, and he closed the door. “I will wait for you here, ma’am,” He bowed slightly as he stood beside the car “You’re not coming inside with me? Why?” She raised her eyebrows. “Ma’am, I don’t think I should…” “Let’s go in together. There are things you might need to help me with in there,” She rushed her words and walked ahead of him without sparing him another glance. A smiled formed on her lips when she heard his thick footsteps behind her as she approached the entrance door. Her heart flustered and her cheeks flushed when Nick held the door and pushed it open for her to go inside the mall. He was just doing his job and nothing else, but the f**k she was flustered with those actions? “Are you ok, ma’am?” Nick looked at her, puzzled when she kept staring at him. “Is there anything on my face?” He touched his face while looking at her, and she cupped her cheeks in her palms, smiling heartily as though her life. depended on it. “Why are you so cute?” She blinked her eyes cutely, and Nick’s jaw dropped shockingly. “Huh?” His eyes eyes narrowed…Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
