Crazy In Love

Chapter 16 Grandfather's Birthday

After the collaboration signing last Friday, Nathan and Sophia prepare a gift for her grandfather. Today was the day of his grandfather's 77th birthday, the Chairman of Hankey Group. The husband and wife go to church after eating their breakfast. And they both went to a spa to have a body massage. 

Nathan brings Sophia to a saloon to have her hair and make-up. It was past four in the afternoon when they went out of the saloon. They directly went home to their penthouse. 

Sophia roams the place; she was in awe when she saw it; it looked like the inside of an interior design magazine. It was spacious and had large bay windows with thick white velvet curtains. The dining was painted white; the kitchen walls were white with white marble and glossy white cabinets. The floor was all white marble as the worktop and lounge. The furniture in the lounge was black. 

She was shocked at the style of the penthouse; it was effortless without feminine touch. There was only a candle on top of the dining table. Nathan came and hugged Sophia from behind.

 "Your place is..."

"Our's place.: he interrupts her. "There was a cleaner that  assigned to clean here once a week."

 "I live here alone before, so my place was this simple." "Soon, there will be little Sophia and little Nathan roaming around this place."

Sophia gasped at what he said. 

Why? You don't want to live here? Will you buy a villa or a mansion? Nathan speak. 

"Not for now. That will leave for later if there's an addition to our family. I want to have a pet dog; also," Sophia says. 

"Yeah, your right. I want us to spend more time together," Nathan whispers. 

"Can I add a little decoration? Sophia ask. 

"I will add a cushion, a rug, a flower vase, a little herbal garden on the balcony, and an indoor plant to freshen the air inside."

"Please do whatever you want to our place; use my card to purchase what you want to add."

"Ok, then."

 He grabbed her waist and kissed her passionately. 

"Let's stop here for now as we were attending the party later in a hoarse voice."

They panted heavily, their forehead touching while they were smiling. They cuddle on the sofa in the lounge while watching a movie until six pm. 

"I will ask for Nancy's help as she was a designer. She knows what color and designs to buy."

At six pm they decided to prepare. Sophia wears a blue sleeveless spaghetti strap gown that hugged her waist flowed down freely on her shapely buttocks, stopping on her knees. She wears gold 3-inch stilettos. She tops it with thin transparent clothing covering her smooth rounded shoulders. The shades of white and blue made her fair skin appear even whiter.

Her eyes looked brighter, and her straight hair that reaches her backbone look glossier. She felt refreshed and comfortable. She's satisfied with her looks. She looks at herself again in the mirror for a quick check. She saw Nathan coming and hugs her from behind.

"You are so beautiful," he whispered, his breath fanning her neck. 

She turns around and says, "Thank you, love! "You are so handsome too."

Nathan wears a tie with blue color and a  blue handkerchief in the pocket. We wear matching clothes. Nathan pulls her and whispered, "I can't wait to take this dress off of your body, wifey." 

"Me too, hubby. I can't wait to hold your abs."

They looked into each other eyes with passion and desire. He kissed her softly at first, and then it intensifies. She clung to his neck for support. His mouth parted her lips, and he enters his tongue, savoring her sweetness; their tongues fight like swords. They felt the madness of wanting more. His hands started to roam inside her gown. 

He can't resist anymore; as she was about to pull down Sophia's undies, his phone rings.

"Hubby, your phone was ringing," Sophia said, trying to break off the kiss.

"Let it ring." Nathan continues kissing Sophia when his phone rang again.

"Pick up the call; it must be something important," Sophia said. 

He broke off the kiss and exhale look frustrated. 

"Hello! he answered the call. Sophia went to the bathroom to give him privacy and to fix herself. 

Nathan came and look at her in the mirror. 

"Grandpa called. Why we are not there yet."

"Oh! It's your fault, Sophia. I can't resist your charm."

"Why only me, I can't resist to your abs to hold too."

"We can't resist each other charm;" we both laugh. 

Our simple kiss turned into a heated make-out session, so we were late for the party. Sophia fixed the creases of his clothes and fixed his tie. She applied lipstick and fix her clothes. The driver drives them into Hankey's mansion. 

When Nathan and Sophia arrived at the party, they saw a lot of people.

"Finally, you both are here."

"Good evening, Grandpa! Happy Birthday! Sophia hugs her grandpa and kisses his cheeks.

Nathan also greets grandpa and does the manly hug. Then the emcee speaks, 

"Good evening, everyone; we are here today to celebrate Mr. Anthony Hankey's 77th birthday."

"Let the party begins! As the party was in full swing, Sophia's grandpa went up on the stage.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I want to take this opportunity to announce the company's collaboration with Dyson Ltd. and Hankey's Group."

"Let's welcome Mr. James Dyson, Chairman of Dyson Ltd..."

They shake hands and offer a toast.

"We want to call the attention of Sophia and Nathan; please come up on the stage."

They looked at each other and went up on the stage together. 

"This is my granddaughter Sophia Hankey and my good friend's grandson Nathaniel Dyson President of Dyson Ltd. I offered a toast for their union in marriage."

Cheers! and Congratulations! 

We sat at the table. Before our dinner starts.

"I would like to introduce mom, dad; this is my husband, Nathan."

"Nate, this is my dad Raffy and my mom Bernadette." Sophia's dad and Nathan shook hands. 

"This is Chairman James Dyson, grandfather of Nathan."

Sophia looked to Hannah and Josh with a mocking smile. Hannah and Josh's faces looking shocked. Grandpa speaks, "this is also my granddaughter Hannah and grandson Steven, and this is Josh Hannah's fiancee."

"Enough with the formalities "Let's eat."

Halfway through our dinner, "so Nathan, how was business been? Sophia's dad asked.

"Business is doing good, dad." 

Dad asked to make the dinner less awkward.

Why didn't you invite us to your wedding? Sophia's mom asked. 

"It was my and James's idea not to invite and announce in public," grandpa says.

"There will be a military wedding celebration this month."

 When they finished their dinner, Sophia was grabbed by her mom. 

"Why didn't you tell me that you'll marry Nathan? I already said that you would marry the Pres. of Ferrell Group," Sophia's mom said. 

"Mom, did I said yes to you? Why not Hannah marry him? 

Besides, in the first place, Hannah was the first choice."

"You piss me off, Sophia. Divorce him! 

Over my dead body, mom! I'm not a kid anymore that follows whatever you tell me to do. I have my own life. I already help the company from bankruptcy."

"I'm not a Garcia or a Hankey anymore; I'm part of the Dyson family now. If you insist, mom, I will cut off our daughter and mother relationship." 

Her mother ruined Sophia's night. She looked for her friends and went to their table. Everyone looks at her when they see her "don't mess with me, look." 

"Earth to Sophia, who pisses you off, Nancy asks."

She stuffs her mouth with food; when she thinks she was full, she stops and looks at the four people in front of her, mouth open wide.

"My mother wants me to divorce Nathan."

"What! they answered all at once.

"She wants me to marry James Ferrell."

"I felt something was off Sophia; why did she insist on marrying that man." Now that she knows you are already married? Bryan says. 

"For the sake of Nathan, I will help investigate the matter." Does Nate know about it? 

"No, I haven't told him yet as he was talking to dad and grandfather." "After my quarrel with mom, I went straight here."

"Sophia, can you accompany us to the comfort room? 

Sophia brings Nancy and Liz to her old bedroom, and it was still the same since her college days. It was clean and free of dust.

"Is this your bedroom Sophia? Liz ask. "It's so bright and comfy to study." 

"Yes, grandpa maintained this room."

After their girls talk, they went back to their table. Sophia saw Nathan's gloomy face. She sat beside him and held his hands. 

"What's wrong? Bry, did you tell him? 

"Yes, Sophia, he already knows." Nathan calms down when Sophia rubs her thumb and caresses it.

 "Let's talk about it at home later," he whispered. 

She nodded. At ten pm, some of the guests leave. Sophia left Nathan for a while to went to the comfort room. When she went out of the comfort room, she bumps into someone.

"Congratulations! Miss Hankey." 

"Thank you. Mr. Ferrell." "Too bad I was late. If I only see you early, maybe we are a couple now." 

"Can we be friends, Miss Hankey?

 "Of course! call me Sophia; stop the formality." 

"Okay, Sophia." "Congratulations! again. Bye." 

Sophia and Nathan said goodbye to their grandfather and went home. They enter the door and close it. Nathan pressed her on the wall and trapped her between his arms.

"Dare to divorce me, Sophia." Over my dead body." 

He kissed her roughly like punishing her. 

"What should I do? I will go crazy if you left me, Sophia," he said in a hoarse voice. 

"Even if I kissed you every day, it seems not enough." "You are like a drug that I was addicted to." 

"It's the same for me, Nate." "I'm frustrated if I don't see and hug you."

"Can we finish off what we didn't finish earlier? Nate whispered. 

Sophia wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him the moment he responded; a moan escapes her lips, and that makes him aroused. They were both breathless when they parted. She felt the bulge poking her stomach. He carried her in his arms and walked towards the bathtub. 

He opens the warm water and fills the tub. He removes her clothes, leaving only her bra and panty. He hurriedly removed his clothes and pants and quickly pulled off his boxers. 

"I will not consider divorce in this lifetime and another lifetime Sophia."

He kissed her lips for a long kiss. His hands move to her body, tracing her curves. She was so engrossed in the kiss that she overlooked it. Nathan removes her bra and panty. He kissed her on the neck down to her breast. Sophia moaned loudly. He trailed his hands to her waist till he reaches between her legs. Then suddenly his phone rings. His hands stop, and they continue kissing. His phone rang again.

'Pick up the call; it must be important." 

"F...K ." as he curses loudly. "Whoever called it must be important."

Nathan: "What! 

Assist. Adams: Hello Pres. "It's about the news of the two of you and the marriage. Should I block it or continue to release it."

Nathan: "Block it; there's no news of me, and Sophia will be released tomorrow."

Assist. Adams: "Ok, Pres. that's all."

After the call, he pecked Sophia's lips and went inside the bathtub. He shampoos her hair, rinses, and applies conditioner. Then he applies liquid soap to her body, making it form a bubble.

Sophia also shampoos his hair and applied soap to his body while playfully touching his muscles and abs. Then they shower and rinse. Spending almost one hour in the shower. They both get dressed and dried their hair alternately. As soon as Sophia's body hits the bed, she fell asleep hugging Nathan. He sniffed her neck and kissed her forehead before going to sleep.
