My Ex-Wife

Chapter 4

Ryan's POV

I stare at them too feeling really uneasy and pissed, I don't have all the time. Without looking I know a scowl has appeared on my face because this snap them out of their trance.

"Mr Brown" he offered his hand for a shake which I take "This is my wife Caroline" he pointed to the older woman who gave me a shaky smile "I apologize for our behaviour just a moment ago" he pointed toward the L shape sofa "please have a seat" he was still assessing me and was speaking like he is still not in his right mind

This made me frown..

"Mr Jonah" I gave him a curt nod "we shall start the meeting ASAP I already have lost a lot of time" with that I walk past him and sit at the sofa

"Do you need anything Mr Brown. A coffee perhaps" the older woman ask me

"No" with that I divert my attention to Alejandro "we must start"

"Yeah ofcoure" with this we start our meeting

I want to start business here too. We want to expand our business. Honestly speaking I know he just want to have some kind of deal or some share but I don't want that I want to buy their hotels completely. I don't want any kind of partnership in this thing. I just want to own it completely.

So ofcoure I tried to convince him but this old man is stubborn.

"Mr Jonah I hope you will consider my proposal again. The money you'll get from it you know you can't get it from anywhere" I told him coldly

He gave me a nod while taking sip from his coffee "Fine but I'll discuss it with my daughter first then I'll tell you. Or maybe she'll like to meet you personally"

"Daughter?" I asked curiously because as far as I came to know he just have a son

"Yes my daughter Rose Alejandro" with that his face and whole features turned so soft and his eyes held a lot of love before he spoke again "She is also interested in business and stuff. Although we told her a lot of time that she don't need to but ofcoure she didn't listen" he chuckles softly with shaking of his head

"She is stubborn dear just as you" Mrs Jonah or Caroline spoke with the same softness in her voice

I cleared my throat because they seem to be in love with their daughter too much that they completely diverts the direction of our conversation

"As far as I know you only had a son Mr Jonah" they both look at me "How come we never heard of her" Maybe this old man just want to shoo me with his lies

This snap out both of them and they look at me again with the same assessing gaze again. And this pisses me off royally

"Mr Jonah are you trying to pelt me with your lies. If you are I don't know why are you doing this" I ask now furiously

"No Mr Carlos I am-" I cut him off

"Its Ryan Brown here Mr Jonah he can't make up to this meeting" I pause "He is having his baby that's why I have to come"

"Oh well please congratulate him from our part" Mrs Jonah said

I gave her a nod and turn to look at her husband "About your daughter Mr Jonah" I remind him again

"Ah yes actually she is not my biological daughter but is more than that" he told me cautiously

I know he is not telling me something but it's personal ofcoure so I am ok with it. At least my doubts are clear. But when I look at him again

Again with this assessing gaze.....

"Mr Jonah let's get clear now. I can see how you two are looking at me. Honestly speaking its pissing me off" I don't want to be this harshly but what can I say after my life has become void I am like this alwaysBut then I take a deep breath "I can tell you want to ask me something from the start. So let's get over this. Ask away"

"Oh Mr Brown please excuse us we didn't mean to make you uncomfortable" the older woman speaker apologetically

"Just ask away"

Mr Jonah cleared his throat "Have we met before Mr Brown?"

"No"

"Not even at any business party or anything where we didn't meet actually but may we just have seen each other"

"Not that I remember of"

"Have you ever been to Barcelona before?"

"No. Never"

"Spain perhaps"

"Mr Jonah rest assure I have never come to Spain at all" I told him "But why are you asking?"

"Actually I don't know Mr Brown not only me but my wife also thought that we have seen you before"

I was about to speak when he cut me and continue "We have very strong feelings that we have seen you before or something like that but we don't know where and how" he told with a frown like he Still is trying to remember

"I can understand Mr Jonah. There are a lot of people you feel that you have met them before. It's not a big deal" with that I stood up

"Yes maybe you are right" he took my extended hand before saying "and thank you for time and I apologize again for making you uncomfortable"

"It's fine just think about my proposal again"

"Sure"

With that I left their house to one of their hotel for my stay.

___________________

Loud music was pounding into my head due the amount of glass I drink. I was already feeling my body heavy and light headed.The club was packed with riches everywhere. Women wearing sultry dresses and men wearing to impress.And as for me I was still in my business suit and was dead drunk.

"Sir you need to stop. I think you had enough" the bartender reminded me

"Did I-i a-sk yo-u" I slurred and trailed off trying to remember his name. Russ or Zeus I can't remember. Hell I'll call him whatever the f**k I want. "Look Fuss, you ave n-not my f-feather"

"You mean father sir" he shook his head "and it's Ralph sir"

"Oh yes-s pulp, Now pass me anyyyy-other gloss"

"Another glass coming up sir" he emphasize the words 'another glass'.

I decided not reply his smart ass comment because at the very time a blissful memory flashed in my mind engulfing me with warmth.

I stumbled toward the door completely drunk all the while thinking either to tell bubble the truth or to make an excuse that why I was drunk.

But before I could reach the door or decision. The door open by itself and there stood the love of my life, my bubble in her nightie under the black robe. Arms folded on her chest, narrowed eyes and was taping her foot looking deadly intimidating and tempting. And my friend down there started to rise.

"Wild bachelor party huh?"

Shit she knew...

Instead of answering I stumbled toward her and wrapped my arms tightly around her chubby warm body and buried my nose in her neck. Purposely pressing my lower body to her.

"Ryan" she warned and I sigh in defeat before taking a step back. I can't lie to her

"Ziza baby, they look m-me there by horse. And I-I just drink a little I pro-omise." I brought my hand toward my throat for the effect but I gripped my nose instead.

Just a little drunk.....

"You mean to say 'Lisa baby, they took me there by force. And I just drink a little I promise' right love" she said in a thick voice

"Hey I- I don't hound like that" I defended

"Ofcoure you don't hound like that" she emphasize the word 'hound' "come on now let's take you to the bed"The word 'bed' wake up my friend down again

As we reached our bedroom she start pushing me towards our king sized bed. Upon reaching she start unzipping my pants before sliding it down. And ofcoure my friend was fully alive and was saluting her

She pushed me to the bed indicating me to sit after that she too sit down on the floor took off my shoes before completely stripping me off my pants leaving me in boxer briefs. She stood up and bent down a little to unbutton my shirt

I tried to look at her breasts by stretching my neck but can't see anything due to the damn robe. So I did what everyman do, I start pulling the strings of the robe.

Bubble gave me a look but I flashed her my innocent five-years old smile. So she resumed her work. But Ofcoure as I was little drunk I ended up completely messing up the knots. I whined and look at bubble, she was pressing her lips Ofcoure trying to hide that grin.

Becoming impatient I directly then cupped her breasts with my both hands....hard.

"Ryan.... love..-" she breathlessly warned before removing my hands and was about to took my shirt off of me completely when I folded my arms and pout

"Love what!! it's past two in the morning don't act like a child" she chided me

But I turn my face away with a pout

"What" she asked frustratingly

Still not looking at her I pointed towards the messed up knots.

"Seriously love" she placed her hands on her hips

I turned my head and looked at her with my chin raised and nodded seriously.

She opened her mouth to say something but then closed it and start to thought about something before finally opening the b***h knots and shrugging off the robe.

Fuck...

She was wearing dark blue mid thighs nightie. As soon as she took off my shirt. I placed my both hands on her chest and start massaging her breasts. She straightened up and took my right hand, taking off my wrist watch.

I grabbed her by her waist and leaned forward placed kisses on both of her peaks and she trembled. I grinned before sucking one of them hard in my mouth.

She moaned pulling my hairs making me rock hard. So I flipped her down on the bed, hovered on her body and pressed my hard on to her center.

"Baby let me show you how little I am drunk"

This little love of my life think I'll pass out soon. Oh so let her find who's gonna pass out.

"Hey handsome" a blonde snap me out of my thoughts

I completely ignored her but she placed her hand on the back of my neck moving my head toward her before started to slide the same hand down and up my chest

I took a look at her she was wearing black blouse with deep cleavage and a mini skirt hardly reaching her mid thighs. Hairs loosened down with dark red lipstick. Ofcoure looking completely a slut

It didn't stir a even a little lust in me although she was practically naked. But when I think about my bubble wearing just rugged sack with face naked of any makeup waiting for me.Not only lust but love and longing stir from the depth of my being.

"Its Daphne, I can sense you need a company" she came closer and whispered in my ear "I can give you a very very good company that you'll never forget"

Disgusted by her I yank off her hands before standing up and placed thick wad for the bartender before stumbling towards the exit.

Toby, my bodyguard rushed toward me as soon as I exit the club before guiding me to my car. As I lean back on my seat my mind was full of Lisa her voice, her smile, her laugh and her alluring scent. But pain gripped my heart in its dead vice when her pained tears streaked cold face flashed in my mind and it became difficult for me to breath so I rub my chest to ease the pain a little.

As soon as we reached the hotel they ushered me to my room. I took a bath and laid down on my bed despite of my drunken state, sleepiness still wasn't anywhere near. But as soon as I start caressing Lisa's and mine photo, I broke down and eventually feel into deep sleep with the frame tightly clutched to my chest

_____________

The constant ringing of my phone woke me up next morning.When I sit up my head started to pound like someone has struck it with hammer. I picked up my phone without looking at caller ID while massaging my temples.

"Good morning Mr Brown" my Secretary Leila's overly sweet voice greeted me

"What" I growled

"S-sir Mr Jonah h-ha...-"

"Stop stuttering" I snapped at her

I listened a sharp and deep intake of breath and after a minute she spoke again

"Mr Jonah called this morning to inform you that he wanted to have a lunch meeting with you again and" she cleared her throat before continuing "He want you to went to his mansion for this"

What the hell is wrong with this man? What is he thinking about himself? Isn't he aware who he is dealing with.

I was about to bark a command at her when she spoke again "He said that he want you to meet his daughter personally for this deal and this will be the last meeting for the results"

I don't know why but I have a feeling he is up to something.

"And sir"

"What"

"He insisted or should I say in his words requested you to have this meeting at his mansion" she told me

Now I am sure there is something wrong and Ofcoure by the way Leila informed me she is doubtful too.

"Confirm the meeting Ms Novell" I told in monotone before hanging up

I think about Alejandro again. I have this nagging feeling that he has something to like...What can I say.. like investigate. Yeah investigate...

Let's just hope that this meeting will brought up something fruitful because I have a feeling that this meeting is going to be something else....
