Chapter Eleven
It was finally Bella's graduation from the aviation school and she was beyond happy. As a matter of fact she is the happiest on earth. It's not an easy task making ones dream come through so she is super proud of her and she's sure her mum was super proud of her.
Chris attended the ceremony and he was asked to present the certificate to the graduants. This was the first time he attended the ceremony. There were rumours that he attended the ceremony because his girlfriend was one of the graduating students and Bella was still very curious as to who this mysterious girlfriend might be.
Bella noticed that kept staring at her and shooting dagger with their eyes. Both men and women were looking at her in ways that she couldn't seem to comprehend through out the programme "but why? " She thought in her head.
"Don't mind them Bella." Her colleague Liam said.
"They're just jealous of you darling." Alexia added with a smile.
Bella couldn't think of any reason why anyone could be jealous of her .
"But why are they jealous? I don't seem to get it." She asked.
"You've got the most wanted commodity in the whole of Europe all to yourself babe...It's only normal for everyone to be jealous you girl." Alexia replied.
"I don't und.. "
"Hello Butterfly." Chris said cutting Bella off. She turned to face him with a bright smile. They've not spoken to each other since she left him at his restaurant when I found out about Dylla.
"Mr Hampson." Bella said with a bright smile revealing her beautiful set of white teeth.
"Can we talk for a moment please?" He asked .
"Sure." Bella replied feeling awkward.
Bella's mum, Mr Anderson Raquel walked up to Bella where she was standing since they had just finished the event. The twins could not attend the ceremony because there school was still in session.
"Am super duper proud of you my darling." Vera said hugging her daughter tight while Bella hugged her back.
"Congratulations my darling, Mr Anderson said handing Bella a bouquet of faucial pink and peach roses. He gave her a kiss on her cheek before giving her a hug.
"Thanks Joe." Bella replied with a smile
"Unnie you look super beautiful today. Raquel said hugging Bella while Bella hugged her back.
"You don't look bad yourself baby." Bella said smiling at Raquel.
"Thanks sis. Raquel said
Alexia and Liam greeted Bella's mum and her boyfriend and they greeted back with a smile.
"Hello" Christian said stretching his hands forth to greet Bella's mum and Mr Anderson.
Bella's mum had already seen him during the event but she wasn't expecting him to say hi to her.
"Chris!" Bella's mum said with a smile hugging Chris. With Mr Anderson greeted him with an handshake.
"How have you been?" She asked
"Very well, thank you and you?" Chris said
"Have been great. Bella told me you returned her car." Bella's mum said smiling
"Yes, I had no other choice." Chris said with an awkward laugh.
"Am sorry have not said hi since your surgery." Chris said
"It's fine Chris." She said.
Chris saw his assistant Elliot walking closer to them .
"Sir , we have to go now." Elliot said
"I have to go now." Chris said checking his yellow gold sky dweller Rolex wrist watch.
"Okay do visit us some time." Bella mum said giving him a hug.
"Jahm-kkan-man!" Raquel shouted before Chris could move calling the attention of people around.
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Chris asked with a smirk
"I meant wait a minute. Can I get a selfie ple...as.?" Raquel asked batting her lashes with a puppy face.
"Oh sure." Chris said with a smile
Raquel immediately brought out her phone and took pictures with Chris. She even requested that both her dad, Bella's mum and Bella appeared in their selfie with Chris. After taking what she thought was enough she finally left Chris to go.
"I would like to talk to Bella for a while please." Chris said like he was asking for permission.
"Bella." Her mum said motioning her head in Chris direction.
Bella understood and followed Chris outside.
"Why do you want to see me?" Bella asked glaring at Chris but he just pulled her into his car because there were people around. Chris got into the other side of the back sit and told his assistant to excuse them. Although he felt reluctant he left anyways.
They both sat in complete silence for a few minutes till Chris decided to talk.
"Am sorry I kept the fact that I didn't sell your car from you. The truth is that it's been hard trying to hide everything inside. I wanted to keep you closer to me, the day I got to see you again after 6 whole years was the best day of my life so far. You don't know how much I missed you . You really do not have any idea. Staying away from you this past few months has been the like torture to me. I didn't want to hurt your feelings Bella. I really wanted you to remember me but since you can't I want us to make new memories together. I want to take things slow with you. I like you, I like you a lot and it's driving me crazy. I just need you to see my heart and start liking me too." Chris said
Bella had absolutely no idea what Chris was talking about. She didn't seem to understand what he was talking about I thought to myself.
"Did you hit your head on your way here or something?"
Bella asked .
" I'm really not following you sir, I really don't understand what you mean." Bella said
"I like you Bella and no I didn't hit my head on anything." he replied.
Bella bursted in laughter after she heard what Chris said.
"Are you drunk by chance?" She asked
"No am not." he replied.
It finally dawned on her that he meant it when he said he liked her.
"But why me Chris, am not from a rich or wealthy background, am not that beautiful, I have to many responsibilities, I don't even have a perfect family. The only good thing about me is my brain Chris , why would you like a girl like me when their are a whole lot of women who match your class and standard. Am not the right woman for you Chris, not that I hate you or anything but this (she pointed to him and to herself) cannot work. I mean the social gap is just to much. It's like a 10 to 100 Chris. I really hate been the cen. ..
Before Bella knew it Chris lips was on hers. The kiss was so heated that it felt like her whole body was on fire. The kiss felt very familiar to her, like this wasn't the first time he kissed her. She fought it but Chris wasn't having it. The kiss was so good that Bella didn't know when she melted into the kiss , their lips was moved in a sync . It felt really nice and she loved it. They stopped kissing for a while to catch their breaths . Bella's cheeks were on fire as she was blushing really hard.
"The youngest billionaire bachelor on the continent just kissed me and I kissed him back ." She thought in her head.
Before she could stop herself, her hands had already opened the door and her legs were taking her to Dylla.
