Four
1050 Words
Elegantly climbing out the car, one seductive foot at a time , the onlookers gawked in awe as two beautiful women stepped out of the black car.
The host at the front immediately stood to greet them when the two walked in, he was probably new because he kept staring at Isabella as she was a well known model.
Isabella decided to tease him by leaning on the counter, exposing a bit of skin for him to see , the dress she wore didn't really hide much anyways.
She presented him with a sultry smile making him blush “I made a reservation under Bella?”.
It took a while for him to finally snap out of his daze “ Ahh y- yes ,Ms Bella right this way please” he stammered while he tried to keep his composure.
Isabella walked back to Leah and looped her hands into her arm, Leah couldn't help but laugh , feeling sorry for the receptionist who was severely teased by Isabella.
After he was able to regain his composure , he guided them to tye table they reserved.
“That was mean Bella”, Leah chided as they took Their seats, watching the host leave in a speed of light.
“What? I didn't do anything wrong” Isabella shrugged, flipping her hair over her shoulders, soon after a waiter came to their table to give them the menu.
“Yeah, I have been wanting to ask , why are we staying at a table with four chairs?, is it just the two of us or are you expecting someone?" Leah asked as she went through the menu.
Isabella stiffened a bit when she heard Leah but she quickly covered it up with a joke “we can afford a table of four so why not reserve it?, and you know they say the bigger the better my dear” she winked.
Leah just rolled her eyes at her , she was already used to her nonsense.
“Good afternoon, may I take your orders?”, another waiter came to ask them.
They both ordered steak “And what about drinks , what would you like to have?”,he asked politely, “just water is fine by me” Leah replied returning the menu to him.
“I will take the finest of your red wine” Isabella returned the menu as well , After the waiter was gone, Isabella spoke up “Why water Leah, you sure you don't want a glass of wine? , they serve one of the best red wines here”.
“No, I promised my grandparents, I'd stop drinking for a while,” she explained with a smile .
She immediately remembered how everyone had discarded her after the incidents with Tristan , only her grandparents from her father side , took her in.
She was extremely surprised when it happened, because she always felt that her grandmother didn't like her , and everyone knows how strict her grandfather was.
But little did she know , she was their Favourite grandchild ,and the only one out Their children and grandchildren they considered the suitable heir to their fortune.
“Hmm that makes sense, and how are they these days?. Isabella asked .
“They are doing great , they just got back from their trip to Paris, I'm planning to go pay them a visit soon”Leah smiled as she remembered how they always acted so lovingly around each other, she longed for that kind of intimacy.
Just then a man walked up to their table and took the seat opposite Leah, “Hmm excuse me sir , I think you have the wrong table” Leah scanned the man.
Although he looked like he was dressed in casual clothes, age knew the ser he wore,it was the latest collection of men's clothes by a luxury brand.
“Oh no he is at the right table , you see I invited him, Leah, this is William, William this beautiful lady beside me is Leah” Isabella introduced them to each other.
“It's a pleasure to meet you miss Leah” he extended his hands to Leah , “The pleasure is all mine”, she shaked him in return, before sending a death glare to Isabella, now she understood why she was so adamant about her mode of dressing.
Isabella pretended not to notice her glare as she signalled to the waiter to come take Williams' order.
“Would you like to see the menu sir?” The waiter asked, “ No I will just have what the lady is having”, he pointed in Leah's direction .
The waiter nodded and went back to bring in their orders, however William was surprised to see that Leah ordered steak and water instead of red wine .
According to the information he got about her, she was known to be a lover of wine, red wine in particular and she even had her personal collection of rare wine.
Leah noticed his gaze and understood what he was trying to figure out, “ I'm trying to cut back on anything alcoholic, it's not the best for my kidney” she smiled politely.
“Oh really, well as a doctor I strongly agree with you” he winked and rolled up his sleeves , slightly enough for the Rolex watch in his wrist to be revealed.
Leah scoffed silently at his deliberate attempt of showing off his wealth, but coming from a well respected and wealthy society, a mere Rolex couldn't impress her , even her ex-fiance Tristan , had lots of it and many more better than it .
Leah mostly kept quiet throughout the whole brunch,so she could show him that she wasn't a bit interested in him.
Even when he asked for her number on their way out,she gave him the wrong one,so there wouldn't be any further contact between them.
“Have a good day William” Leah bade him farewell and walked to where their car was packed not waiting for his reply.
She looked back when she noticed Isabella wasn't with her and saw her talking to him,before he entered his car and drove off.
