CEO Daddy, Let’s Get Mommy - Chapter 328

Ch-327

Nicholas watched Michelle and Kris dancing. The way she twirled in his hands and landed in his arms irked him. And it felt like her body perfectly fit in his arms, which made him annoyed. He downed the wine glass in his hands in a single go.

Nicholas didn’t like how her hips swayed against Kris’s body. The genuine smile on her lips made him angrier and combined with his drunken state. Generally, he could control his intoxicated state. But today he was not rational. He didn’t care whether Esther and Cyrus were dancing or not.  He pulled Michelle into his arms suddenly. He buried his face in her neck inhaling her scent.

Michelle was dumbfounded at his action. Damn! It would be like she was playing with two men. Even though she hated him, she hated herself for being affected by his touch. His touch sent tingles in her body; warmth started to pool in her stomach. His hot palms made her unable to resist. Nicholas placed his hands on her waist transferring the hotness from his palms.

His hands traveled to her bare back, sending chills in her spine. She finally got into her senses and she pushed him away. Her breathing was ragged. Michelle could sense the shock and surprise from the others around her. But she didn’t say or do anything. She grabbed Kris’s hand and ran away from the venue.

Michelle wanted to yell and shout at Nicholas but said nothing. Straight she ran to their car. Somehow, she noticed that Kris was stilled and silent all the while.

Leaning on the car with her back, she gasped. “I am shocked at his stunt,” Michelle said.

She looked at Kris’s face and wondered what made him like this.

“Kris?” she called him out, pulling him out of the trance.

Suddenly, he trapped her in between her arms, placing his arms on either of her sides, shocking her completely.

“What are you doing?” she gasped out in surprise.

——–

Nicholas felt his mind turn clear when he was pushed by her. He saw the shocked expression and angry expression on her face. So… Now she doesn’t even like his touch. Then does she like his touch?

But… he saw her running out with Kris. Does that mean she likes him? No matter what? Even if his explanation was not needed, he has the responsibility to explain. He will explain it to her.

He followed her, ignoring the curious glances of the onlookers. But when he reached them, he saw she was being trapped between his arms.

———

“Michelle,” Kris called out.

Suddenly, Michelle had a bad feeling. She was seeing a new side of Kris tonight.

“Please listen to me. Don’t push me or avoid me after this talk,” he pleaded with a desperate yet frustrated tone.

Michelle nodded at him meekly. She knew whatever was going to happen was not good. Hugging her tight, “I love you, Michelle. I want you to be with me all the time. I have to return today night, but because of you, I stayed back. When I saw Nicholas Vritra around you, I felt so pissed, frustrated, and mad. I only want you to be with me myself. From the moment I saw you, I tried to do business from this city, so that I could see you and talk to you. Every fifteen days, I buy something from you just to have a meal with you.

“But you are always polite to me. I thought I could make my way inside your heart with time, but today… When I see you are still in love with your ex, it makes me jealous. I want you to be my woman. I know it’s too sudden… but I would like to hear your answer someday. I can wait for your answer,” Kris said.

Breaking the hug, he cupped her face and looked into her confused brown eyes. “I Love you, Michelle Felix,” he said.

Michelle’s eyes widened in shock when she heard his words. This was too much for her.  Before she could put things together, she felt his lips on hers. She was too shocked to respond.

When she realized what was happening, she pushed him away. “K-kris…” she whispered.

Kris realized what he had done. He immediately held her hands and stopped her. “I am sorry. I am sorry. I didn’t mean to do that,” he said immediately.

“I will take my leave,” she said as she tried to walk away.

“I am sorry. I will drop you off. Please… I won’t do that kind of thing again,” Kris begged.

“Kris… just leave me….” Michelle said.

——

Nicholas heard the confession of Kris. He was shocked. Despite being with her all these days, he didn’t notice there was a rival for him. And before also she mentioned that he was respectful and gives importance to her.

Does she like him?

Before he could think of more, he saw Kris kissing her. What!? She let him kiss her just like that. Doesn’t she feel betrayed for kissing him? He wanted to leave but when he saw Michelle pushed him away and tried to leave him alone, he felt confident.

Rushing forward, he pulled Michelle into his arms.

“Leave!” Nicholas said as he pushed him away.

Michelle wriggled in his grip but he was not budging away.

“Leave me,” Michelle whispered.

“Michelle, why don’t you understand? I love you. That day… in the car, she was putting eye drops on me. And when I closed my eyes, those drops slid from my eyes, so she only cleaned them for me. I swear on my parents… I never cheated. I am sad that you didn’t message for three days and wanted to make you jealous when I saw you are being jealous of Celta.

“And yeah… Celta is a fool around but she has a policy of not fooling around the men in her office. And she is a fan of ours. She made a fan page for both of us. She always gives me ideas to woo you. When she saw you leaving the room angrily, she said “I deserve to stay single for hurting you.” Nicholas said.

Michelle was shocked at his words. She knew he wouldn’t lie to her when he promised his parents. All along she misunderstood him. But she hated the fact that he let her misunderstand all along and he took advantage of her when she was drunk. She felt so worthless when she thought of him taking advantage of her when she was drunk.

Her mind was a mess with their words and the whole night.

“I am leaving,” she said and was about to take a step.

“Please…” they both said at a time.

“She will come with me,” Esther’s voice resounded.

Esther just came out when she saw Nicholas and Kris following her. She heard the thoughts of Kris when she was with him. How could she not feel concerned? When she came, she saw that both of them were fighting for her.

Even though it’s not her place to meddle, she saw the inner struggles, Michelle.

“Don’t go against her consent. Don’t hurt her. Have a fair chance with her. Don’t push her or force her. Even though I am a bystander in this matter, she is my friend. I will protect her with all I can. And as Mrs. Vritra… it’s easy for me to handle you both,” Esther said.

“Michelle, come with me. I will drop you,” Esther said.

“Aunty, Reggie will marry you. Dad… said I can’t marry mom as she is his wife. So… I will marry you. I will protect you from these bad guys,” Reggie said as he threw glares at the both of them.

He walked towards her and held her hand. “Let’s have ice cream on the way,” he said with his cute smile.

Michelle gave a slight smile. Reggie was a relief to her in this situation. Her head was a mess now.

Walking with Esther and her family, they reached her car. Michelle noticed the cold war between Cyrus and Esther. Even though she wanted to laugh she held it. She was not in the position to laugh at others.

She was ripped off by two men now. If not for Esther, she could imagine she would be in a big predicament. Either she would be gobbled up by Nicholas or Kris. How did she end up like this?

Why in the hell did she pick Kris out of all the men?

Can she say she regretted her actions?

“Aunty… Don’t feel bad. I will marry you When I grow up. Okay?” Reggie said as he held her hands.

“Aunty Likes Reggie so much,” Michelle said ruffling his hair.

“Reggie likes aunty too,” he said.

In a few minutes, they reached Michelle’s apartment. “I will stay over with Michelle tonight. You both return,” Esther said.

“Reggie will come too,” Reggie said.

“No baby, let me stay with my aunt. Aunty is sad now. Okay? Some other time,” Esther said.

Reggie thought for a while and nodded his head.

“Reggie wants a kiss,” he said. Esther kissed him.. Then he asked Michelle too, for which she gladly kissed him.
