DRAKE'S POV.
Seeing Heather's defeat as she slumped into the seat gave me a triumph that I had never felt in my entire life. Something has changed about her from her striking timid nature to her robust physique. She was now a confident woman who would stop at nothing to command her presence without even trying.
The silence stretched in the car as I drove the car. She couldn't tear her gaze off me for a second and though she looked tense she manages to hide it.
I smiled silently knowing her gaze was on me all throughout the ride. I stared at her back but she folds her fist threatening to punch me in the face.
"Asshole better watch the rode or you'll get us killed I just woke up from a coma and I don't want to go back there. She informed and I quickly tore my gaze away from her's.
My jaw tightened and I steered the car to the side of the road before coming to an abrupt halt causing her to sink deeper into the seat. "Miss presumptuous I never knew you were this much of a talkative, aren't you? I asked sarcastically causing her to stare at me. "I'm only doing you a favour since you're trying to get home but if you keep on talking I might as well call your father and inform him his beloved is at the middle of nowhere.
She quivered punching my shoulders relentlessly. "You wouldn't dare to do so just take me home Mr arrogant and we will forget this ever happened. She ordered pouting her lips. "Do it or I'll call the police!
I smiled sitting back on my seat. "With what phone? Your punches are as weak as you look. I remarked in a taunting tone. "I'm not your chauffeur so sit down and shut your mouth! Look at you a grown up pouting even a five year old would be proud.
She grinned glaring at me angrily before mimicking a zip gesture. "Please Mr arrogant please take me home, would you? She asked gritting her teetha as she pretends to ask nicely. "I'm asking as nice as I can.
I knew I couldn't keep her here any longer not with all the bad deed I've done so I took her home. The silence stretched far long enough and soon enough we were in front of her mansion's gate.
She unbuckled the seatbelt before opening the car door as she steps out angrily. "Goodnight Mr arrogant and we better not cross parts again. She spat banging the door angrily.
I scoffed covering my face with my hand before stepping out of the car. "Damn presumptuous is that how you say thank you? I asked pulling her by the elbow. "I'm surprised that a pretty lady's got such vulgar mouth.
She looked up with a dark expression as she silently chuckled before grabbing her arm lightly. "So you think I'm pretty with a vile mouth and I should say thank you? She asked pushing me aside as she walks to the gate. "You better get outta here before I call the security.
I walked towards her closing the distance before leaning towards her ear. "Whatever Miss presumptuous have a goodnight sleep and it's good to see that you're alive that's all I'm here to say. I replied before striding to the car hastily before she could comprehend my statement.
She stared at me her mouth open but no word was uttered. I drove off after watching her get inside the gate and with that I pressed the gear and took off speedily.
AT HOME (MY PRIVATE VILLA).
I drove the car in front of my mansion and asi stepped out of it Aaron my bodyguard was there to drive the car to the garage. Inside the house Mr Chamberlain,my butler came to me running with a phone in his hand.
His expression tensed as he hands the phone to me. "Your father is on the line he demands answers from you as to why you left the party earlier than usual without having to meet miss Catherine the daughter of the Moores. He briefed stepping away from the way.
I clenched my teeth so hard against my cheek that I tasted a bitter metallic taste in my mouth. "Hello Mr Nate Lancaster how many I help you? I asked sarcastically walking towards the wine gallery at the corner of the house. "Speak up dude I don't have all day.
He snapped trying to regain in control over the phone. "Drake that's no way to address your father and you better not be drinking. He commands.
I rolled my eyes throwing the whiskey into the sink close by. "Last time I checked I didn't have a father after I lost my mum so speak up. "Why the hell are you calling me isn't your party enough for you? I asked pushing myself into my sofa before waving to a maid who brought me a pair of new shirt and a washing bowl.
He smirked and I could tell he was about to explode but Estella probably had her lips all over him helping him maintain his cool. "You were supposed to be speaking with miss Catherine because in two months you will be marrying her and it's to strengthen your bond. He informed sounding concerned.
I snort before signalling Mr Aaron to come hold the phone as I continue to wear my shirt. "Mr Lancaster I suppose that this isn't to strengthen my bond because I'm bond to no one but as I suppose I make my own money and not a cent of yours has been attributed to my well being so If you'd excuse me I've got work to do. I remarked signalling Aaron to end the call before walking up to my room. "I don't want to hear anything from the Lancaster family again I owe them nothing. Secondly relay my message to the kitchen that I won't be having dinner because I'm full.
Aaron looked at me in a confused expression before nodding in agreement. "Yes master and next week is the first day attending Royal Von university what kind of brands will you want for schooling? He asked bringing out his notepad to jot a few things down.
I scowled looking at him before walking upstairs as he followed suite. "Now Aaron I'm confused just arrange a few things normal kids wear to school and that would be just great but it should be superb. I said slamming the door to his face.
In my room I stared at the well decorated interior that was a testament to my affluent life the king size bed reminded me of my past life and how much I've changed over the years. I fell with my face flat on the bed before turning to face the ceiling.
A tear escaped my eyes and I didn't even know I could shed a tear. "I wished things weren't as messed up as it is now Heather we might have been so much better. I sobbed burying my head beneath the pillow.
