Mr. President: You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets - Chapter 450

Chapter 450: 450- Open Challenge
George saw her silently packing her purse. She had already changed into her old clothes, though he still wanted to see her in his oversized T-shirt.

“I’ve asked the driver to drop you off at some distance from the hostel,” he informed her, and she nodded with a faint smile.

“Thanks,”

Something wasn’t right. She didn’t feel alright to him.

She took a man’s name… what was that? Yeah. Dorian Maxwell. She asked if he knew him, then wiped her face and decided it was time to leave.

This girl held a special place in his heart. He didn’t want to scare her with any kind of commitment but in all honesty, he didn’t want to let her go.

However, he needed to respect her decision too.

“So, will we meet tomorrow at the office?” he asked her while watching her wearing her shoes.

“Yeah, sure. Why not?”

He wished he could tell her that she mattered to him and that he wanted to spend some more time with her.

But no. Here was the line.

Being a CEO he could be ruthless to all his employees but this girl…

She had somehow managed to bring out the soft side of him.

In the past, only Ariel could do that. Or Abigail Sinclair.

Thinking of Abigail, he felt like someone had squeezed his heart. Anaya reminded him of her.

“I’m ready,” she gave him an over-brightened smile and he had to return that smile.

“See you tomorrow in the office, Anaya,” he murmured looking into her big black eyes. Those eyes had the power to accelerate his heartbeat.

“See you, George,” they were standing outside the elevator, and she had pressed the call button.

The doors slid open and before Aniya could take a step towards it, he held her by her shoulders and pressed a kiss on her forehead.

Aniya closed her eyes because his lips stayed there longer than necessary.

“Let me know if you need anything,” she heard his horse whisper and nodded with a big lump in her throat.

Don’t you dare cry, Aniya. Otherwise, being a gentleman, he won’t let you go.

Thinking of that, she gave him a shaky grin, “Sure.”

He had already saved his number on her phone which was odd for her. Wasn’t he getting closer to her because he just found her attractive?

Nothing more nothing less.

He was still standing there, staring at her when the elevator doors closed.

***

After getting out of the car when Aniya started walking, it had started getting dark.

This time the driver didn’t argue with her and stopped the car where she wanted him to. While walking to her hostel, she looked over her shoulder and found the driver standing near the car. He must have instructions from George to keep an eye on her.

It was so stupid of me to let my tongue slip. What he must be thinking about me? What if he knew Dorian Maxwell? After all, they both are rich and might move in the same circle.

Whatever!

I had a great time with George.

She thought with a smile. When she entered the hostel, she was beaming, and her heart was still fluttering thinking of the time she had spent with him.

As she stepped into the corridor, she spotted Olivia leaning against the wall, arms crossed, an amused smirk playing on her lips.

“How was he in bed?” Olivia winked with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Aniya shook her head and rolled her eyes, “Seriously. You are here to take the detailed report of our bed activities?”

“Yes, love,” Olivia slapped her back, “Come on. We’re all in the living room having a pizza party. Good news is no bland-tasting dinner tonight. Join us,” she grabbed Aniya’s wrist before she could protest.

“Olive… I…” Aniya tried to tell her that she had already eaten a jumbo burger, but Olivia had already begun dragging her towards the room.

The living room was buzzing with laughter and the warm inviting scent of freshly baked pizza made Aniya’s mouth water.

The moment Emma spotted Aniya, she jumped to her feet, her eyes lighting up with excitement, “At last, you are here! Woo hoo!” she squealed like a child rushing over to embrace her.

Aniya chuckled and settled on a sofa after hugging her. These girls would never let her get bored. She thought to herself with a smile.

She turned to Emma to say something when a voice cut through the cheerful atmosphere of the room, “So, you’re here after spending time with a rich guy, Anaya Jakes. Right? Care to explain who he is?”

The room quieted and Aniya’s smile faded slightly.

Paige?

She was sitting on the corner couch with her arms folded. Aniya frowned and looked behind her to see if Paige was talking to someone standing at her back.

No. The bitch was looking right into her eyes.

“Wh-what’s the problem?” Aniya tried to control her stammer.

Oh, God. Does she know where I was?

“Tell everyone where you were?” Paige repeated the question and this time there was a wicked smirk on her face.

Aniya kept looking at George’s PA who thought she owned Aniya.

No. Now or never.

Valerie James had already destroyed her life by bossing around. Aniya didn’t want another Valerie in her life. Never again.

Aniya heaved a long sigh and got up from the couch.

“Aniya!”

Someone whispered behind her. Maybe Emma or Olive.

But Aniya didn’t look back. She walked slowly in Paige’s direction and could feel everyone’s eyes on her. She stopped at some distance and folded her arms on her chest.

“What did you say?” she asked Paige boldly trying to control her cold shivering hands.

“I said,” Paige cocked up a brow in mock disbelief and stood up, “Tell everyone where you were?”

“Why? Are they all my mommies?” Aniya fluttered her lashes and heard silent giggles behind her. A small smile appeared on her lips too that Paige didn’t like.

“No, they all should know who you’re dating, Anaya,”

“That’s why I’m asking, Paige. Why should I tell them? Are they all my mommies? Are you, my grandma?” she asked her with an innocent pout.

This time Paige’s friends also wanted to laugh. They were standing there tightlipped, maybe scared of Paige.

“If you won’t tell them then I’ll tell them,” Paige was trying to corner her with a threat.

Aniya’s heart missed a beat.

Paige knew.

She was aware of where Aniya was. But one thing that Paige didn’t know about Aniya was, that she was intelligent. Brains ran in her family.

“You’ll tell them what?” Aniya shrugged, “Tell me where I went and please,” she raised her palm, “Don’t take George Donovan’s name because everyone knows he is out of my league… or are you thinking of maligning our boss’s reputation just for your entertainment?”

Paige was standing there tongue-tied while Aniya’s eyes had an open challenge in them.
