Bound To Him - Chapter 146

As Blake entered the house, he saw that Sara was still wearing the same dress. It looked like she listened to him.

Sara felt nervous as soon as Blake came into the house. He looked like a predator walking towards his prey. Maybe she should not have listened to him and waited in the dress.

He kissed her with enough intensity to make her forget about everything else. He was in a hurry and tried to remove her dress roughly.

“Blake wait! This dress is so expensive you cannot just tear it like that,” Sara pleaded. She wanted to preserve the dress because she was wearing it when she got her award. It held special memories.

“Baby, don’t stop me tonight, I will buy you more dresses like this,” Blake said impatiently.

“Blake, please…I really want to keep this,” Sara showed her puppy dog eyes. So Blake listened and helped her unzip her dress.

Sara was wearing the most sensual Victoria secret lingerie he had ever seen. Blake could not stop himself and tore her undergarments, but he still never consummated their relationship.

Sara was sweaty, and Blake wiped her forehead, took a wet towel, and wiped her whole body. Then they both cuddled and slept.

Two days later, Mr. Wesley hosted a party to celebrate Sara’s success. He was very proud of his daughter and invited a ton of influential people to the party.

After her success, people started sending marriage proposals to Sara and since his youngest daughter was already married Mr. Wesley thought that maybe she should get married as well.

She was now 25 years old and after the scandal he wanted her to lead a good life and not to bother too much about anything. He earned enough for his family, and he will be able to provide enough for his daughters to have a good life.

Ava had started designing jewelry, she had stumbled upon this when she was introduced to someone who was designing jewelry as their business. She was not showing interest in their business, and he thought that she would probably find something else to do, not imagining that it would be designing jewelry and on top of that his son-in-law Tristan was one of the most powerful and richest businessmen in the country. His daughter was blessed to have him as a husband because he really pampered and took care of her.

The other reason he decided to hold this party was for Sara to meet these eligible bachelors that are vying for her hand in marriage. He hoped that she would select someone from the group today so they can go on a few dates and get to know each other and then get married.

Sara was the highlight of today’s party, and she had dressed in a very sexy classy orange dress today. As soon as their guests came, she started talking to them, not knowing her father’s motives.

“Sara, this is Max, he is the Ceo of Kutcher industries,” Mr. Wesley introduced.

Sara thought he was just one of the guests so she carried on talking to him, when he asked, “So what do you think about me?���

She was confused, why would he ask such a question, “Uhm I don’t think I understand what you’re asking.”

“I’m asking if you want to go on a date with me to get to know me, so you can, you know…. You can marry me,” Max said.

“What? No. Why would you ask that?” Sara was confused.

“Don’t tell me you don’t know that your father is trying to match us together?” Max asked.

“Sorry, I don’t know anything about this. Excuse me,” She said as she left him by himself.

“Why is my father arranging blind dates for me without asking me?” she wondered as she looked for him.

She asked her dad to be excused from someone he was talking to when she finally found him. “Dad, what is this? Why are you introducing me to all these men without asking me?” she said, a little angry at her father.

“Sara, I’m not telling you to get married to someone in particular. I wanted you to get to know one of these men and marry only, if you really like him,” he explained.

“But dad, I don’t want to get married right now,” she said with frustration showing in her voice.

“Sara what…,” Mr. Wesley was about to say something when he noticed Blake standing next to Sara. They were both stunned because he was not invited to the party, and Sara did not know he was going to be there.

“Hello Mr. Wesley,” Blake greeted and shook Mr. Wesley’s hand.

” It’s nice to have you here Mr. Anderson,” Mr. Wesley said.

The aristocratic heir never attended any parties that’s why he was never invited, but nevertheless, he did not know the real reason why Blake came to this party.

“Dad, please call me Blake,” Blake said smilingly.

Mr. Wesley was stunned, why is this aristocratic heir calling him dad and telling him to call him by his first name. He was reminded of how Tristan also did the same thing when he was asking his permission to marry Ava. “Is Blake here for Sa…. No no,” he said to himself as he shook his head. Surely he was just thinking too much.

Even Sara thought Blake was being too shameless.

“Enjoy the party,” Mr. Wesley said as he grabbed Sara’s hand so they could go talk in private.

“Dad, I wanted to talk to you,” Blake said politely. Mr. Wesley frowned, why was this young man suddenly acting so courteous with him. So he nodded to let Blake know he was listening.

“I love Sara, and I want your blessing to marry her,” Blake said. Sara’s mouth hung open, she did not know how to respond.

Mr. Wesley felt that a big bomb had been dropped on him. “Blake, this is not the time to make such jokes,” Mr. Wesley was starting to get annoyed. He was so shocked by the news that he forgot all his manners and called Blake by his first name.

“Dad, I will never joke about something like this. I’m very serious, you can ask Sara,” Blake looked at Sara for affirmation.

Sara was in a dilemma, she did want to anger her dad, but what Blake said was true, and they are supposed to let him know one of these days anyway so with a guilty conscience she nodded her head.

“First your sister and now you? You girls will give me a heart attack one of these days,” Mr. Wesley said in a high voice.

“Dad, please don’t get angry, it’s not good for your health,” Sara tried to console him.

At the same time, Mrs. Wesley was searching for her husband and noticed that he was angry when she walked towards him.

“What happened? Calm down,” Mrs. Wesley tried to rub his chest.

“Your daughter claims to be in love with Blake,” Mr. Wesley said angrily. Mrs. Wesley frowned as she looked at Sara and Blake, but no one knew what she was thinking.

“This is supposed to be a party, let’s not create a scene. We can resolve this after-party,” Mrs. Wesley said sternly.

Mrs. Wesley agreed with his wife and walked away to talk to their guests so he could forget about Blake and Sara.

After her parents were out of earshot, Sara angrily turned towards Blake and asked, “Blake, are you out of your mind. How could you do this? How could you tell my father just like that? We should have discussed this and broke the news to them at home when everybody is relaxed.

“Baby, I’m really sorry, Tristan sent me a photo, and I could not just sit there and keep quiet,” he said.

“What photo did Tristan send you?” Sara asked.

Blake took out his cellphone and showed her a few photos of the prospective grooms talking to her when her father was introducing them.

“It started when Ava took some cheesy photos with Tristan and posted them on Instagram, of course, all of us teased Tristan saying he was a “wife slave.” So he tried to get revenge by sending those photos,” he explained.

Sara did not expect her brother-in-law to be so petty. She smirked when she saw Tristan feeding Ava a pastry, she had become so lazy that Tristan had to wipe her mouth for her. No wonder her sister has become spoiled so much after getting married. Even when she was at home visiting, all she could talk about was “my Tristan this, my Tristan that,”

“Baby, please don’t be angry,” Blake pleaded, Sara had already been silent for a few minutes, and he did not know what she was thinking. He will do everything possible to be with her.

“It’s fine,” she said, touching Blake’s face, “We will talk to my parents late and convince them of our love,” Sara said with a small smile.

“Don’t worry, I will handle everything,” Blake said as he hugged her. She felt relieved that she was in his arms again.

After the party, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley, Blake, Sara, Tristan, and Ava congregated, for the meeting.

Blake decided to speak first, “Dad, Sara, and I love each other very much. My family had already met her, and they really like her a lot.

They have already given their approval for our marriage, and now we need your blessing as well,” Blake said as he held Sara’s hand.

“When… When did you start dating? Were all those rumors about you true?” Mr. Wesley asked.

“I liked her when I met her for the first time at Tristan’s wedding. We started dating after that.

I believe that I have all the qualifications you need for me to be your future son-in-law, I have an established business, which means I can care for your daughter.

Any scandals you hear out there from other women are not true, they were engineered so they can use my name to get famous. I am deeply in love with your daughter, and I want to marry her in the near future.

Mr. Wesley frowned, he was presenting a very good argument. Blake was exceptional in all aspects. On top of that, his daughter loved him. It’s just difficult to hear when your daughter suddenly tells you that she is in love with someone, he still considered her his little girl.

“Dad, if you are having doubts, then you should know that Blake is Tristan’s friend, and my Tristan is such a good guy so it means that Blake is a good guy too, so you should trust him,” Ava said.

Mr. Wesley said, “Yeah, yeah, your Tristan is the best person in the world.”

Ava turned around and looked at Tristan and said, “Look Tristan, even dad agrees with me.”

Mr. Wesley let out a sigh, his daughter did not understand his sarcasm. She was too obsessed with Tristan.
