The Billionaire's Revenge

Chapter 57: Stain

Andra Erlina’s Point of View

I can’t tell how happy I am today. It’s like, something big really happened to me. I can’t describe how I feel perfectly after the thing I heard earlier this morning. We’re now ready to depart, but then, I was just waiting for Zacarias to come out whilst I was inside a hut sipping my drink I bought in the seaside area.

I snorted when I started to think about what’s going to happen again. School will be tomorrow, and I am not still yet ready. I have a lot of things currently in my plate and I don’t think I could survive for another day but at least, I’m trying.

Their coconut juice taste sweet. Honestly, it was the first time I had tasted this. If I know, it has water, sugar and some milk but still, I don’t want to conclude such things especially if I am not aware of it.

On the other hand, all our things are now inside his car and ready to go back. But then, Zacarias said that he left something on our room and asked me to stay here and wait for him in which I am okay with it. Well, the weather is good but the sun is out and shining brightly in the sky. I wouldn’t want my skin to go dark and feel the heat of it causing my skin to burn and my body to sweat.

Fifteen minutes had passed, and yet, he wasn’t still here. I took a deep breath thinking whether to come and fetch him there or not since it’s already four in the evening and the travel hours would be around four to six hoirs depends on the traffic. Zacarias and I will be early tomorrow and I don’t want him to get late.

As I was walking down to the direction of the room where we stayed, I saw him coming out looking serious as my eyes went on the stain in his collar. I stopped on walking and waited for him in front and halted as well in front of me making me see how evident the stain on his collar was.

Zacarias was wearing a white polo, but then, the only red lipstick caught my attention.

“What’s that?” I asked as I narrowed my eyes on his collar.

He looked at it then took him a few seconds before answering. “It was the thing I accidentally touched when I was going out. Probably the paint. Someone was painting outside tho,” he said then looked at me.

I put my eyes directly on it. It seems like it wasn't paint or something. A shape was on it and it seems like a lip that has a lipstick or liptint on it but has been cutted off. Zacarias and I remained standing, something inside me started to suspect yet I tried to divert my attention to other things especially when he told me it’s only a paint.

Zacarias started walking out of the blue. I didn’t came along with him at first but when he looked back giving me his furrowing eyebrows, I started to walk alongside with. But before I did that, my eyes drifted on the direction where Zacarias came out and saw that Bianca Li was there. She was smirking like something really nice happened.

The suspicion I had with me remained the same. I’m not sure if it was a lip but then, seeing how the shape and how it perfectly cuts makes me think it was.

Zacarias and I were just quiet for the whole time I was here. I already had an idea what happened and I don’t want to think of him like that or something negative yet the atmosphere he was giving me were too quiet that he may look serious even if he was driving.

Whilst we’re in the middle of our trip, I saw how Zacarias’ phone who was unfortunately just beside me suddenly rang and has a one phone missed call. It rang for ten seconds but he only let it pass as it was only a number. After a few awhile, I already saw that there’s a text message saying something I can’t read.

“Why don’t you read it?” I asked, looking at him.

He remained serious. “Not important, besides, I’m driving.”

My eyes drifted away from him. I was now looking at the windows and for a moment, I suddenly felt annoyed. Maybe because I was thinking negatively for them both. Whoever and whatever that message has been caused, I shouldn’t care in all aspects.

“Maybe that’s someone waiting for you,” I said. “For example, your clients or secretary.”

“He knows I’m out of town and basically, he will be the one who’s going to answer calls and not me.”

The trip became silent but I’m still trying to lighten up our conversation. For the past few minutes we’re talking each other, I didn’t even think that we are now stuck under the traffic. When I opened my phone and saw what time it was already, I decided to tell him to grab dinner first before continuing on driving.

We are now inside the restaurant, I was about to move the chair when he did that for me, causing my cheeks to blush and flashed a small smile.

“What time are you going to school for tomorrow?” he asked.

I hummed. “Hmm, it depends on my schedule. You often goes there during seven in the morning, right?”

He nodded whilst browsing his eyes on the menu. “Yeah. I should send you my schedule tomorrow for you to know where and when I’m going to,” he said then the only answer I gave was a nod.

Sometimes, I just don’t want to eat with him. His lifestyles is far away from mine. He often eats at restaurants that is too much for me, and pays whatever he wanted.

Well, what do you expect to someone who has his own company and already had a future towards him? Of course, he’s a billionaire. He could buy many five star restaurants including hotels whenever he wants. He could pay for everyone’s food this night, and believe me, his pocket wouldn’t hurt big time.
