Chapter 34

Kiara's face filled Calvino's mind. Beautiful eyes, sexy lips.

Calvino closed his eyes. "Kia, come and cover this restlessness of my heart with your love."

He hugged his hands as if he was hugging Kiara tightly. "Your body and your hair smells great."

He was fantasizing wildly about Kiara. Suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. He quickly opened his eyes and looked to the side. "Shit, did she see me fantasizing?" he muttered.

Calista growled in annoyance. "I'm not a ghost. Don't look at me like that."

Calvino examines Calista's face. "I'm sure he didn't see I was fantasizing."

"Your voice is so low. Please speak loudly."

"You have a cute expression when you're upset." Pinch Calista's nose.

Pushing Calvino's hand roughly. "Don't pinch my nose."

"Why?"

"Sick."

"Your nose is adorable." Calvino pinches one more time.

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Then feel this." Calista hit Calvino's stomach.

Calvin groaned in pain.

Luckily Kiara was passing by. "Sir, are you all right?"

"He's just pretending. Just ignore him." Calista's orders.

"But, Mr. Calvin is in pain."

"Ouch, it hurts." Calvino groaned with a pained expression, then glanced at Kiara.

"What are you waiting for, Kia. Come on, come closer to me and hug me." he muttered.

However, Kiara did not approach. The woman is afraid of Calista.

Calvino whimpered once more. "Ouch, it hurts." Holding his stomach.

Kiara couldn't bear to see him. She glared at Calista. "Mr. Calvin, it hurts. You can't ignore it."

Kiara approached Calvino and was about to carry him to a chair, but Calista stopped her.

Calista whispered in Kiara's ear. "Trust me. He's just pretending to be in pain to get sympathy. We're already late, let's go."

"Yes, Miss Earl."

Before going, Kiara looked at Calvino. She didn't have the heart, but she couldn't just ignore Calista's orders.

"I'll go first, Mr. Calvino. Excuse me." She bows down and leaves.

Calvino growled in annoyance when Kiara left.

"Earl, you've ruined my plans to get close to Kiara and you, Kia. You will soon receive punishment for ignoring me."

Calvino rushes after Kiara, but there is an incoming call from Emran, his business partner. "Hello."

"Hello, Mr. Calvino. Am I interrupting your time?"

"Of course not. What important matter made you contact me? Is there something very important you would like to say?"

"Nothing, Mr. Calvino. I'd like to invite you to lunch. That too if you wish."

Calvin rolled his eyes. To be honest, he wanted to catch up with Kiara, but Emran-

He couldn't just ignore his business partner.

"A privilege for me. You invited me directly."

"Then I will immediately send a driver to pick you up."

"No need. I can go by myself. Can you please send me the location?"

"Wait for a time."

"Yes."

"I've sent the location to your phone."

Calvino looked at his cellphone screen and smiled. "Okay."

--

Calvino has arrived at Kennington Green Restaurant. He parked his car at random.

A man approached. "Sir, please move your car." Glancing behind Calvino's car. "Your car is blocking other cars from entering."

"Please just move my car." Handing the key into the man's hand.

John, Emran's confidant, approached Calvino. "Sir, is there a problem?"

"There isn't any."

John led him to the Elevator.

When the elevator doors open, he lets him in. "Please come in, sir."

Ting. [Elevator clinking sound.]

The elevator door opened.

John brought Calvino to Emran and bowed. "Excuse me, sir."

"Yes, please."

Seeing Calvino's arrival, Emran stood up and shook his hand. "Thank you for taking the time to comply with my invitation, Mr. Calvino."

Calvino put on a charming smile. "Your invitation is an honor for me, Mr. Emran. Thank you for including me in your lunch."

"Please, sit."

"Thank you."

They were waiting for the waiter to put the dishes on the table. The two of them talk to each other about work.

"What about your company in Dubai?"

"Thank you for asking. The company is running smoothly."

"I'm glad you came to London."

"I was visiting my little sister."

"How long have you been in London?"

"Do you often come to this restaurant?" Calvino asked back, then smiled at the waiter. The waiter informed him that the dish was ready.

The two immediately ate lunch and ended with a typical London dessert.

After finishing lunch, Calvino said goodbye but was stopped by Emran. "How about we talk first?"

Calvino smiled and leaned one hand on the back of the sofa. "Looks like there's something very important you want to discuss with me."

Emran fixed his gaze on the crashing waves. "The atmosphere of this restaurant is very nice. I frequent here every time I visit London."

Calvino followed Emran's gaze. "I agree with you. The view in this restaurant is very beautiful."

Emran turned to Calvino. "Not only beautiful, but romantic." Then he turned his attention back to the waves. "Romantic atmosphere like this. It's best to enjoy it with a lover."

Calvino's mood was affected by the romantic atmosphere of the restaurant. He also wanted to bring Kiara to this restaurant.

"It looks like the view is very good at night."

"That's right. The night atmosphere of this restaurant is beautiful and romantic. Together with a partner can enjoy the waves under the light of the sky."

A smile etched on Calvino's lips. "Do you often visit this restaurant with your lover, Mr. Emran?"

"Only once in a while. Then how about you? Are there any plans to bring your lover coming in here tonight?" asked Emran openly.

Calvino gasped but remained calm. "In the business world. Women are just a distraction. No one deserves to be a lover."

"Really?"

Calvino closer to his face. His gaze sharpened. "Women make I weak and I don't like to involve women in my life." Except for Kia, she is different. She is a woman with extraordinary charm. It can even shake my soul just thinking about it. Uhm, Kia, what are you doing so I'm like this? You make my soul restless and can only be calmed when in your arms.
