👶BILLIONAIRE’S BABY MAMA👶
EPISODE 7
🖋️ HAPPY WRITES🖋️
The sight of the exquisite candle lit table did nothing to quell her anger as Dennis led her to a seat in the private sitting area away from other patrons of the restaurant.
She wrenched her hand free then, taking the offered seat and her anger increasing at the smile on Dennis’s face.
A smirk actually.
Whatever was he smiling for?
“Stop being so fussy” he said “why are you so tense?”.
“I don’t usually fancy being dragged to strange places by strange men”.
“Really, strange men?” he continued, goading her “i don’t think we are really strangers now,are we, ally?”
She ignored his question and fired her own.
“How did you know my name?”
“Oh I know everything about you” he said, coldly “everything except why you left that morning. I don’t take lightly to being tossed aside,you know”.
“Oh I’m sorry, did I hurt your feelings?” she taunted “surely you didn’t think that was anything more than a one night stand,do you? I find that night perfectly distasteful and best forgotten”.
This was a lie.
Although she remembered little of the incident, she doubted if it was distasteful.
And it was a bad idea to lie, because Dennis eyes became so red, she was scared.
“A..all I’m saying is” she stammered “I made a mistake that night and its not a pleasant memory for me. So can we just let it go?”.
Dennis face was still as hard as stone but he didn’t look so scary anymore.
His mouth opened like he was about to say something but was interrupted by the waiter.
“Your guest is here,sir”.
“Bring him here” he ordered,then faced her immediately “we are not through, you and I, and we are not letting this go”.
Just then the door opened and it was her turn to grow white with shock at the sight of the person standing there.
“Josh?!”
***
Alison couldn’t seem to close her mouth as her brain tried to ascertain what her erstwhile fiance was doing there, the same way Josh was looking at her with astonishment.
Well, guess he never expected her to be dining with one of the most influential men in town.
She was dimly aware of Dennis watching them curiously and finally cleared his throat.
“Well, I see there’s no need for me to introduce you two, seeing as you recognize each other so well” he said “sit down, Mr Brandon. You look like you are going to faint”.
“Mr Overton,t..this is a surprise” Josh stammered as he glanced at Alison and shivered at the look of pure disgust on her face “I wasn’t expecting company”.
“Well, you should have” Dennis continued “I told you we are meeting with the contractor for the new site and here she is, Alison Kent”.
Alison gave him a nasty look.
“I refuse to work with Josh Brandon” Alison retorted “and you too, if you have the likes of this man around you. He’s not worthwhile”.
“I hang my hat where I please” Dennis said through his clenched teeth and watch Alison struggle with the emotions in her.
Now this was interesting.
Whatever history passed between this two must be interesting and very deep for Alison.
Suddenly he was jealous.
Jealous at the fact that another man knew her more than him.
Wait, what if he was her cheating fiance who had dumped her and left her at the altar?
His jealousy turned swiftly to anger and he glared at Josh who squirmed at such attack from both Alison and Dennis.
“If you don’t want to work with him, then you won’t my dear” Dennis said, surprising her “and you can equally cancel the contract, but that doesn’t mean we won’t see each other”.
He said that last statement just to see Josh’s reaction and was incensed at the man’s next question.
Stupid question.
“Do you know each other?”.
“None of your business” they both snapped at him and he retreated, quickly.
“You can leave, Mr Brandon” Dennis said dismissively “I don’t think there’s anything left to discuss and get used to Alison. you’ll be seeing her often”
