The Billionaire's Bite -
Chapter 56
CELESTE'S POV
I woke up because of the sunlight touching my cheek. I slowly rolled my eyes and got up from lying down. I turned my gaze to my phone which was now on top of the small table by the side of my bed.
I saw a lot of missed calls from Blade.
What's wrong with this man?
I immediately dial his number and call him.
"Hello..." He answered the call. Her voice cracked and he was newly awake.
"Why are you calling. Sorry I didn't answer your calls."
"I have a problem right now, the company is losing..."
"So what's the point?"
"I need mone"
"My gosh Blade I already gave you a two hundred thousand."
"I already spend it, There's a lot needed in the company."
"So... What do you want me to do?"
"Get some money."
"I can't, I'm just going to ask Drake for money so it might be obvious that's where I put the big money I take from him. You know that all my necessities are free because he costs everything. I have another problem because I feel like he is getting closer to his secretary. Maybe sooner or later, he'll just ignore me and leave me alone." I scratch my head. I know that Drake is starting to fall in love with Anna.
What is the special with that girl, she doesn't have a company or else.
I need to remove her from Drake's life, or else my life will be miserable.
"You know that everything will be fine and you'll leave that Drake too. We're going to go away and get married, we won't need him anymore."
Yes, what Blade said is true, when all is well, I don't have to approach or cling to Drake just to make money. Because we can surpass him.
"Okay. I'll make way," I replied.
"That's my girl. I love you..."
"I love you too." That's it and I turned off the call.
How can I shed its money again?
I immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower.
I took 6 minutes before the shower ended. I started to put on some make-up then I left the condo to go to Drake's company.
Also a few minutes ago and I was already at Bentrix Corporation. I immediately went inside, all the employee's eyes were on me. Well... I can't blame them when I always grabbed their attention because I know I'm always the center of attention. 'Where's Drake?" I asked Amy.
"Ma'am isn't here yet," she replied. I went straight to his office and waited there. A few minutes also passed and I heard the door of his office open. I was shocked to see Anna.
"Did Drake is already here?" she asked. My eyebrows rose as I stared at her. We had nothing special about her so I was very skeptical about why Drake seemed to fall in love with her.
"Do you see Drake here?" my sarcastic answer.
"All right, I'll just come back later." She answered and was about to leave.
"Wait, not so fast," I asked, "do you like Drake?" I asked directly. She remained stooped as she faced me.
Based on her reaction now it looks like she's falling for Drake as well. Who will not fall for that man; he's handsome, rich, and a perfect man. Nothing more to look for. If I hadn't met Blade before, he might be the one I wanted to marry, but I know Drake, he has no intention of entering into a relationship because his only goal is to follow his father to run this company. But even so, Anna still has to get out of her way, who knows she might even interfere with my plans. "Why ma'a?" she asked. I got up from my seat and walked over to her.
"I said... If you like Drake?" I repeat.
"Ahmm..." she stopped answering when the door suddenly opened and Drake opened up to us.
'What's going on here?" taking he asked.
"Noting... All right, you can leave," I replied and turned to Anna. He bowed silently. I immediately approached him and pretended to fix Drake's collar.
"Good morning babe, how's your morning?" I asked and kissed him on the lips. He did not answer and walked over to his desk.
"Ahm... I'm leaving," Anna said. Drake nodded at her and he walked out.
Anna closed the door and I pressed the lock button of Drake's office and slowly walked closer to where he was sitting.
"Wanna do some workout?" I slowly unbuttoned his cloth but I was surprised when she suddenly stopped it.
"I'm not in the mood to do what you're thinking right now, I have a lot of work today," he said and took his wallet from his pocket and pulled out an ATM card. Used this I know you need something so here you are now." He hands it to me. "Thanks for this, I also need a case of money now." 'I see... So you don't need anything anymore? You can leave now," he said.
"Wait are you firing me?"
"You're probably not deaf, are you?"
"Why does it seem like you've changed since Anna came here to the company?" I was angry at the bell, not because I was concerned about losing my source of money but because I felt a little jealous. I shouldn't feel it because I have Blade in my life but I feel it spontaneously.
"Don't include her in the conversation because she's not in it."
'See! You are defending that woman again."
"I don't have time for this Celeste, you should go home."
'No Drake, answer my question. Do you like Anna?"
'I don't have time for thi-"
"Don't change the topic!"
'I said I have no time for this!"
"Why can't you answer Drake-"
'Yes! Is this what you want to hear? Yes, I love her! " It was as if my anger suddenly subsided when Drake said that word. I gradually felt sad because of that term. After all, what am I in his life? I'm just his pastime and we don't have a clear relationship.
I was about to answer but we turned our attention to the office door when Anna suddenly entered.
'Sir sorry for disturbing you, but I just want to remind you that we have a meeting with Mr. Gallego at 7:30. "
I turned back to Drake's habit and gather my things and left his office.
I don't want that girl will just get you Drake I'll make a way for you to come back to me again.
