Don’t Fall In Love With Me Mr. Ceo - Chapter 72

William stared at himself at the mirror as he prepared to go out. He made sure to wear proper clothes that would not make Mia uncomfortable. He wore a simple white shirt, black jeans and blue sneakers.

They were heading somewhere Mia would enjoy herself, so he made sure to check into every detail. Though he thought he made a good job dressing inconspicuously, he still stood out like a sore thumb, due to his height and body proportions. A diamond might be in a rough state at the beginning but it is still a diamond.

William could not do anything more with his looks as he grabbed a baseball cap and went downstairs.

He was a couple of steps away from their stairs when Stephanie saw her brother.

“What the hell are you wearing?” Stephanie asked with a gaze full of questions.

“This is the most appropriate look for where we are heading,” William said.

Stephanie looked at William from head to toe and gave a sigh. A sigh of defeat, as though she was giving up on her foolish brother. “Fine, before you go, don’t you have to do something?”

William glanced at her sister not understanding her meaning.

“The promise you made in exchange for the photos,” Stephanie said while scrutinizing her brother. She looked like a wolf ready to pounce on her prey.

William was startled but remembered that it was his promise, “What do you want?” He was glad he came down early so he won’t be late for his date. He looked at his watch and saw he still had 2 hours to pick Mia up. He looked at his sister’s smiling face and felt a chill behind his back.

“He he. Give me your phone!” Stephanie exclaimed while reaching out her hand in a grasping motion.

William just stood there wondering what his sister was planning with his phone. He did not fight back and let her have it, even though he did not know what she was planning.

“Here, you can use mine in case of an emergency. Have fun.” Stephanie walked away with William’s phone in her hand while giving out a creepy laughter.

William looked at his sister’s phone which was colored in a conspicuous metallic pink. Well, he did not plan to use his phone in the first place so it was a win-win situation for him. He felt he gained more as he would be getting the other photos of Mia later on. He suddenly had the thought his sister would be transferring all the files on his phone and felt elated.

“You’re the best sis.” He thought as he happily left the house.

Mia, on the other hand, slept like a baby.

She was tired from all of yesterday’s activities, once she was at home she dived at her bed and slept like a log without any worries. She thought it was a blessing as she did not have time to worry about tomorrows date. She woke up in the nick of time and started her preparations just like what Hana and Stephanie told her. The beauty regiment that they decided was the simplest and easiest for beginners to remember.

She started to prepare herself by taking a bath, she thoroughly cleansed her face by washing it with a mild cleanser. She generously applied moisturizer to her face and let it dry thoroughly before putting on a primer. She grabbed an egg like sponge, which Stephanie called a beauty blender and she dampened with some water.

Mia looked at the makeup products in front of her and took the foundation, she squeezed a tiny amount on the back of her hand and carefully applied it on to her face with the beauty blender. She grabbed the concealer to conceal the tiny bit of dark circles that she had and with the use of a setting powder she sets her makeup.

She applied a bit of blush on the apple of her cheeks and did her brows and curled her lashes. She looked at herself in the mirror and thought it was a bit different from what Stephanie and Hana thought her, so she began to recall what to do next.

“Aaah,” Mia exclaimed.

She took the pink lipstick from the pile of makeup that Stephanie gave her and placed some on her lips. The last step she did was putting on some gloss on her lips.

When she was done she looked at herself in the mirror with her one-piece sky blue dress, doll shoes and bag. Though it was the simplest outfits Stephanie give her, she thought it was the most appropriate. She looked at the other outfits laid out the bed and thought that it was a huge hurdle to suddenly change her way of dressing up. She could try slowly get comfortable wearing something she was not used to. With one last check on the mirror, she felt she had done her best and walked out of the room.

In the living room.

William was sitting comfortably with a cup of tea and some snacks that Aunty prepared when he heard Mia’s door opening. He stood up to welcome her, but once he saw her appearance he became awestruck.

He could not take a single step. He felt his throat became dry as he tried to swallow his saliva. He continued to stare at Mia without saying anything. He felt he was in a slow-motion film while Mia was walking towards him with the wind blowing and her hair and dress were swaying.

Mia felt uncomfortable with William’s stare which caused her some doubts if she might have done something wrong with her makeup.

At the side, Mrs. Hill came into the living room, once she saw her daughter she took out her phone and started taking pictures of her daughter.

The noise from the shutter and camera flash woke the two from their stupor and looked at the person taking the pictures non-stop. William get a bit closer to Mia so I can take a picture of both of you. Mrs. Hill happily chirped like a bird and continued pressing the capture button on her phone.

William could only smile wryly at the situation. However, deep inside, he was thankful to Aunty for making the awkward situation better.
