Mr. President: You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets - Chapter 459

Chapter 459: 459- Breakfast From Paige.
Aniya smiled while being nestled against his chest. She felt she might melt into him. He was her safe haven. With him, she felt protected.

In his arms, she felt untouchable.

“How about…” she chewed the corner of her lower lip, “How about you sit next to me and steal glances like a lovesick puppy? That way you can hold me close, and you can admire my face at the same time. Win-win. Right?”

George didn’t know how to react to this funny side of her. His eyes crinkled in amusement as he couldn’t help himself, he buried his face in the crook of her neck, his shoulders shaking with laughter.

“Anaya Jakes,” his breath fanned over her skin sending a delicious tremor through her, “You’re impossible.”

Aniya’s fingers unconsciously ran through his hair as if… as if he belonged to her.

At this realization, goosebumps rose on her skin. But then she needed to get away from him or divert his attention otherwise she could end up being his w*hore.

“So,” she mused tapping his shoulder, “should I still call you lovesick or would you prefer Royal Clinginess?”

He lifted his head and looked at her with a playful smile, “You’re enjoying this too much, little dove.”

She grinned, “Can I at least have a sip of water or are you planning to treat me with this hug on this rooftop.”

He suddenly felt guilty and pulled away, “I never acted this crazy, gosh!” he grumbled softly and made her sit on the chair.

Aniya didn’t know a date could be this good. She had never been on a date. This was her first time.

George had started telling her about his university days, but all Aniya could do was look at his face and admire his features.

The car rolled to a stop, a block away from the hostel, but neither of them made the move to end the night.

“I had a great time tonight,” he said turning to her, “I enjoy your company so much,”

She tried to smile, fighting her inner child who desired to stay with him. She didn’t want to leave the car, but she had to.

She needed time to think and look at this relationship again. She couldn’t afford a heartbreak.

“I enjoyed it too,” she said, reaching for the door handle with a hesitant smile.

George was still looking into her eyes when he made the unexpected offer, “Come up to my penthouse for the night.”

Her heart skipped a beat at the invitation. It was dangerously tempting but no.

Remember, Aniya! You need time.

“Umm. I think… I should go… umm…” she tried to control her quivering lips, wishing he was not that attractive.

He studied her for a moment and then finally nodded, “It’s OK. Take your time.”

Just as she was about to open the door, he surprised her. Leaning ahead, his lips brushed against hers in a slow and gentle kiss. She felt her breath hitched as she melted into that kiss.

Before her mind could register it, he pulled away and without hesitation, reached for his phone, “Come here, Hilton,” he told someone authoritatively, leaving no room for any argument. Aniya frowned. Who was he talking to?

Suddenly a man emerged from the shadows a few feet away. Aniya watched the man in confusion.

George turned to her with an unreadable expression, “I know you don’t want to be seen with me,” he said quietly, “But can’t risk sending my girl alone like that,” he said with a slight shrug.

The guy was making sure that she got home safely. And the way he was looking at her, it left no room for any protest.

Shaking her head, she sighed with a small smile, “You’re impossible!”

His lips quirked, “You’ll get used to it, little dove.”

But I don’t want to get used to you, George. She told him in her heart.

She noticed how his Adam’s apple moved when he was looking at her. He used to make her feel like she was very important to him, but her heart wasn’t convinced.

She stepped out of the car, feeling his eyes on her back. But she didn’t make the mistake of turning around. Because if she did, she wouldn’t be able to go away from him.

She could sense the guard walking silently behind her, keeping a safe distance. Once she reached the hostel gates, the guard saluted her and walked past. But he didn’t walk any farther until he was sure she was safely inside.

Aniya changed into a sleepwear and removed her makeup. She was already missing him and wished to run back to him.

She went to the window of her room and peeked from the curtain. Far away on the straight road, she could see the familiar tinted car parked at the same spot where she left it.

Her heart skipped a beat. George hadn’t moved from there since she left.

***

Aniya spent the whole night tossing and turning in her bed. When George approached her, she thought it was just the fatal attraction that needed to end which was possible only after he fu*cked her.

But nothing of the sort happened.

Am I in love? She asked herself.

As a girl should she tell him or wait for him?

Once I tell him, he’ll make fun of me. The girl who didn’t want to be seen with him, how will she be able to carry on this relationship?

She closed her eyes with those disturbing thoughts. She needed to sleep to stay sane the next day at her workplace.

As expected, she got up late and missed the breakfast.

“Where were you? We thought you stayed at his place,” Olivia told her while walking to the Star Corps building.

Aniya tried to smile but her nostrils flared as she struggled to suppress a yawn.

Emma chuckled and slapped her hand on Aniya’s shoulder, “You need black coffee in your system, Anaya Jakes.”

“Anaya! Anaya!” they turned around when heard a familiar voice behind them. Paige was jogging towards them in heels, breathless, and looked a little funny.

“What has gotten into her,” Emma whispered with a slight frown.

“And she is smiling!” Olivia’s brows shot up in surprise.

They watched as she finally reached them trying to control her labored breaths, “This…” she extended her hand that was holding a brown paper bag, “A donut and a coffee. You didn’t take your breakfast this morning.”

The three of them were staring at Paige like a fool. Emma even blinked several times to make sure that she was not dreaming.

“Hold it, Anaya!” Paige almost shoved the bag into her hands, “Come on. I’m not a bad person. Was just going through some tough time.”

Aniya stood there like a statue, holding the bag while Paige walked past her to join her friends. Emma and Olivia exchanged a look.

“Maybe she got into some accident and hit her head!” Aniya whispered.
