Christian’s POV
As I was spending the whole day out with the guys because they didn’t know what to get for Isabella, I rolled my eyes and walked up to the guys saying “ for the love of god she is a woman, get her any damn thing!” I didn’t bother to hide the boredom in my voice, then Ian said while looking at the stores “ well given the fact you never met her, you don’t know her, as for Albert, the key to your girlfriend’s heart, is to get a gift that will impress her best friend” Albert chuckled and patted on Ian’s shoulder “ that’s right my man, plus Isabella is not like any other woman I’ve met, something in her is just, off.” Ian stopped in the middle of the walk and said “ she’s a cardio thoracic surgeon! A heart statue! Oh I’m genius!” Albert laughed “ well your gift is settled, what about mine?”
Oh god this is going to take forever…
*Three Hours Later*
I was actually planning to look sharper than usual, I’m taking the “ dress to impress” card since we are meeting this hot intelligent surgeon, which I highly doubt that since I know both Albert and Ian’s tastes in women, pfft what could it possibly be?
It’s not like I’m going to “ fall in love “ with Isabella.
I shook my thoughts and got ready and I forgot I had to write a card for the birthday girl’s present, I took one of our Blacks Empire’s cards and wrote “ In the end, It’s not the years in your life that counts, it’s the life in your years, happy birthday Miss Williams. Christian Black. “ I ended it with my name and signature for authenticity, and after I took the gift along with my phone I went downstairs and got into my black Ferrari, yes I have cars and properties in France but the damn brother of mine didn’t wanted me to use any of them, so since I’m going somewhere I don’t like going too, I’m going in my own style…
Finally I reached the place, it was L’ARC Paris, hmm, good taste for a celebration I see, I got out of the car and tossed the keys to the valet who opened the door to me while walking past him to the entrance, as soon as I walked in the place was almost crowded but no actual French people, they actually booked the entire place just for Isabella’s birthday, I placed my gift on the gifts table, and it was slightly full with big and medium size presents, mine is small but I know she will like it, I got to the bar as I saw people mingling and I ordered a champagne, I took a sip and suddenly the people crowded at someone, I’m guessing it’s Isabella, as I was about to get up, Albert comes next to me saying “ woah you’re here, you know, Ian and I have actually made a bet if you’re showing up or not, guess I’m winning, I’m going to tell Ian, although he’s going after Isabella’s sister, speaking of Isabella, you should go see her “ I rolled my eyes at him, I took another sip and told him mockingly “ and where’s the birthday girl? “ Albert pointed at the crowd direction and I turned boringly at the place he pointed at but then it was my surprise.
I couldn’t take my eyes off her, it’s the same one, how?? Her smile and beauty made my f*****g heart race like it’s in a speed race.
It was from that very moment, and she took my damn breath away…
I got up, not minding attention to my brother or anyone, everything was blurry to me, I only see Isabella now, she’s the most amazing woman my eyes have ever seen, and it’s an understatement to her beauty..
I got to her and said her name breathlessly, still stunned by her, she looked at me and her eyes were making me feel more than one emotion, she looked at me in wonder, don’t worry I don’t know what happened to me the first moment I saw you, I said with myself for her, she said breathlessly and her soft voice was like music to my ears “ Yes? “
I let my hand out to kiss hers, I said while she took my hand smiling charmingly “ I’m Christian Black” and kissed her soft hand, slightly inhaling the beautiful vanilla scent of her skin, it made me hungry for her,I smirked at her as she realized who I was she looked at me with her baby blue eyes widely and said blushing “ Mr Black, I didn’t know you’d show up at my birthday, I didn’t knew Albert’s brother is actually in Paris either.. “ I chuckled saying while my eyes not leaving hers “ well now that you know, I’m here with my brother and our friend Ian, you ran into each other earlier that day “ she looked at Ian who was next to Sophia and said smiling, and god what a damn smile that she has “ ah yes, quite the nice person “
I nodded at her, then Stella comes and whispers something in Isabella’s ears, Isabella looks at me smiling and says “ excuse me, I’ll be back” and she left me completely speechless, this is the first time a woman knows who I am and doesn’t stick to me like every other woman does, I kept my eyes at her and her godly beauty, I forgot the opera and called them canceling my reservation, I decided to stay, I never stay for a woman whatsoever.
Isabella, what on earth have you done to me?…
