Desperately into you

CHAPTER 44

I saw my parents walking in our direction together with Mr. Martinez, as far as I remember he's Mr. Marcos Martinez the head of the hotel chain and restaurants, one of our investors and also the father of Bella...

And speaking of Bella, my wide silly smile vanished when I saw her walking behind with some annoying girls that she was with back at the business anniversary party of the Bandini's and unfortunately, I'm lucky enough to see them again.

I sighed and roll my eyes secretly, I didn't invite her of course but my mom did, they are a valued

Investors of our private jets chartering so, never mind.

I glance at Crisha and I found her busy chattering with Shawn and Simon I could see her gaze going from this serious man beside me and she's giving me a teasing look, while Luna isn't here at the table, she went to the washroom with Olivia.

Viel, on the other hand, was calm and quiet as always. I kept on bagging him about his gifts for me but I only earned a warning sharp stare from him, so let's not push the limit.

Everyone was waiting for them to get near, I stood up when I saw my dad's gaze go on me. They are now in front of our table and everyone greeted them, except for me, because I stood up and give them a sly smile.

"So gorgeous, happy birthday to you, young lady." Mr. Martinez greeted me.

I chuckle and thanked him.

you're right Mr. Martinez, I'm more gorgeous than your daughter. I sighed in my thought.

"Viel," My father acknowledged Viel.

Viel stood up and nodded at my parents and did a handshake with Mr. Martinez, I was standing beside him while Crisha and the other two guys were sitting and watching us.

" How have you been, great man, how's Boromeo? Haven't seen him tonight." Me. Martinez asked.

I saw Viel's lips twitch before he answered the latter questions.

I puffed my breath, whatever he does, I just find him so good, and yeah, I really am going insane for him, I think.

On the other side, I saw someone from the other table greets my parents and they were now talking with them while Mr. Boromeo and Bella were here in front of us.

"Bella...princes come here, greet KC, you two could be a good friend, guys,"

Me. Martinez smiled at me before he guide Bella to greet me.

I almost choked at that, I don't think so we could be like that, well, to see Bella's expression was like a crumpled sheet of paper was already telling me the answer, especially when her friends excused themselves and leave her with her dad.

Bella plastered a fake smile on her face but she glance first at Viel before to me.

" Happy Birthday, KC," Bella muttered and Smile at me,

" Thanks," I answered while flashing a pretending smile at her. I even invited them to take a seat with us.

"Hey, Viel, how are you?"

I almost snorted loudly when I heard Bella ask that to Viel softly then she walked near him until she was already close enough for him.

Viel lazily lifts his head and glances at Bella shortly.

"I'm good," Viel answered shortly before he became unattractive again.

I was distracted when I heard Crisha's giggles on the other side.

"Do you have a girlfriend already, Shawn?"

I heard Crisha ask surely, followed by Olivia's heartily laugh and chuckle coming from Luna,

Oh, I didn't know they were already here, I didn't notice maybe because my mind was occupied with something and someone has something to do with it.

After a while, Mr. Martinez leave his daughter and made her join our table while he join the conversation with my parents with the other guests that aren't familiar with me.

I was pulled back with my senses when ai heard Shawn's answer.

" No," He replied shyly.

Olivia and Luna giggle as if it was good news,

" Oh my God? Really?! Nice haha..." Crisha claps her hands while looking at Shawn.

Our table became noisy because of these loud people there. Except for Viel of course.

" But, do you like someone?" Olivia excitedly asked.

"Already into someone?!" Olivia shamelessly followed up the question and again flipped his long invisible hair.

Everyone laughed weakly and wait for the answer, even me I was smiling while looking at them while Viel was sipping on his drinks while showing a neutral expression as always.

But, Bella was staring at him as if she was hypnotized.

She likes him, no doubt and I like him too, and this is one of the reasons I think we can't be just compatible with each other.

" Yes," Shawn answered Olivia's question.

He was now turning red while he was glancing at me and then he looks tense.

"Oh!.. She must be lucky," Luna was the one who answered this time and Shawn just molded and glance at me.

I frowned, do I have dirt on my face or something?

Crisha suddenly cleared her throat as her eyes settled on me and let out a smirk again as if she found out something.

" Well," Shawn implied and smile at the.

In my peripheral vision, I could feel Viel's intense gaze leveling me who k somehow makes me feel unease.

" How about you, Simon?" Crisha is now asking him.

I shook my head in disbelief, these guys were her crush last time, and now there are both sitting in front of her right now, I don't know who will she choose. I chuckled,

" Well, I like someone too," Simon immediately answered.

And let out a manly laugh, I caught Bella glance at everyone and laugh too, though, it doesn't look genuine.

" How about you cuz?" Simon suddenly turned to look at Viel who was quietly sitting here the whole time as if it will drain him if he'll going to say something nonsense.

Everyone stayed quiet including me who became so attentive and Bella also became attentive.

Well, it's very interesting for me and probably, for her too.

I Like Viel and I know I'm not the only one like him, and I'm actually near here with someone who likes him too as much as I do.
