23Reyna sighed as they stopped in front of a five star restaurant. The kind of place where she was sure that if she wanted to work with them, they would screen her on how she talked and walked. Although she didn’t really fancy things like this, she was being paid to fancy them and so she didn’t complain leaving her signature smile on her face. “I’m betting you would love the food here. Since breakfast was the last meal we ate, I’m guessing that eating dinner would be a smart idea before anything.” Reyna nodded. Now that he mentioned it, she really felt hungry. They enter the restaurant, hand in hand. “Niko!” An excited but masculine voice rang out and the owner of the voice was soon seen as he stepped out from a door that most likely led to their kitchen. “I wanted to make my coming a surprise so you don’t go bonkers before I get here.” Niko said and Reyna was surprised at the bright smile that lit up on his face. He was already very attractive but with his eyes and face smilin
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Twenty Four: Drawing lines
24On the ride to the cinema, Niko noticed how distant and aloof Reyna was but he made no attempt to point it out. Not only was he also uncomfortable about opening up such part of his past, he also wanted her to understand the boundaries despite how much they would try to live together. “Since girls like romance movies, I picked the recent one that has been making the box office smile.” Niko said as they walked to the cash point. Since they just had dinner, Reyna ordered a small box of popcorn just for the motion. She had never been to a cinema after reading about it for so long, she didn’t want to get the experience without her box of popcorn. Niko on the other hand opted for only water as the two them entered the cinema. It was dark inside and Niko reached for her hand as they walked up the steps and guided them to the back. They had entered just in time for the movie. The movie lasted a total of an hour and forty five minutes and while Reyna didn’t really enjoy the story line,
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Twenty Five: Projects and partners
24“You look so good” Larissa exclaimed the moment she saw her best friend. “Well, Alan’s fine now and the doctor had said a donor would be ready in two weeks at most.” She was beaming and all smiles for the first time, Larissa eyes got watery. “I’m so glad this went really well. I always felt like even though you were holding up well that you would just snap one day out of the pressure.” Lisa confessed as she heaved a sigh of relief. Reyna smiled as she wondered the probability of that happening. Regardless, she was glad that she met Niko and she would do her best to not cross boundaries and do her work well. Classes soon started and since they were fashion students, everything was starting to become more of practicals.“Since you have just two months left, we would be rolling out your projects and of course team partners. For fairness, we would only assign people with similar grades together so that some are not dragged down by their team partners. The effective pairing list wou
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Twenty Six: Her background
The more he read, the more Niko felt like he had to be reading a story. How could anyone’s life be this tragic.“Are you sure you have all the data right?” He asked Joe who had just turned the car in the direction of their estate.“I did a lot of cross checking and also asked her father’s personal men. It’s no hidden secret in fact.” Niko suddenly felt like he had been too cold to her. She had been experiencing this? Perhaps that was why she had felt completely empathetic back when they had gone on a date and he had just done the worst by treating her like this.He had personally not had a smooth life but he had his grandfather who had always made his father hesitate in being too extreme with him. His grandfather had also helped him even without him knowing and had only come to know when they were actually older. He went back to look at the pictures again and sighed. Even when she was going through the hardest times, she had looked even more attractive than a regular person. He coul
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Twenty Seven: Rollercoaster
Chapter 28After seeing that the house was still so quiet after he had woken up, Niko knocked on Reyna’s door to be sure she was alright but got no response until he decided to open the door and saw it empty. He dialed the security head immediately a sudden worry crossing his mind as he entered the room. Since she had moved in, he had not entered the room and he could see now that she had made some changes to the room. It also smelt like her a lot, a mix of something natural and sweet and strawberry. Somehow, he liked this feeling of being in her room, it looked more homely than his own room. He furrowed when he saw the boxes placed by a corner in her room. The room was big, yet, with all those boxes there, he felt it was too crowded. “Did Reyna leave the estate?” He asked while still staring at the boxes. “Yes sir. She left about two hours ago with the delivery van.” While the first part of the statement had just been a confirmation for him, the second part made him very uncom
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Twenty Eight: Confronting her
“Why the hell did you go out like that!” Niko asked as they entered the house.Reyna stared back at him, her lips trembling at the sight of his widened eyes. She didn’t want to have anything to do with him, she didn’t even want to pass her boundary. She just wanted to go in and sleep and go to school again.“Can’t you reply to me!” He bellowed again at her.He was frustrated and damn angry. Why would she go out like that without saying anything or without even bothering to carry a car. He could see the fear laced in her eyes, and even though he didn’t want to shout at her, he couldn’t help himself. What would happen if his grandmother saw her outside and when the time comes to show her to them, she’ll know she’s just a cab girl?“If we’re going to make this work, you have to abide by all the things I have, and use them like it’s yours. My family is a very suspicious one, one wrong move and they’ll tell you out! I don’t care what kind of reputation you’re trying to keep but know this,
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Twenty Nine: Unyielding
Chapter 29“What do you mean I have to tell you everywhere I go! What if I have to go to..” Reyna said as she clasped her mouth together again.“That’s number one.” Niko ignored whatever she had to say before.Even though he had felt bad for whatever she was going through and whatever she had gone through, he didn’t need her to flop his plans.“And you’re entitled to two cars in the house, you have to take one today and another tomorrow. Change them as you like, you may take more if they interest you.”Reyna sighed as she nodded her head, already calculating how she was going to do everything.“I can’t drive.” She hurriedly pitched in.“And I wouldn’t want a driver.” She added again.Her eyes stared at Niko like she had just gotten an opportunity to escape from his rules as Niko approached her slowly.“I don’t know how you want to do it, but it’s either you go with a driver or learn how to drive in a day. Your choice.” He said as he smirked at her again.“I’ll go with the driver then.
The Playboy's Woman Chapter Thirty: Trouble in Paradise
Chapter 30“Are you fine?” She asked with her brows furrowed.Niko raised his brows as his lips slightly parted with his eyes strained on her.“What do you mean, am I fine? I need to eat, just give me the cereal, and all this can be done!” He said sharply.“I don’t think you have that right to shout at me.” Reyna retorted.“Did I shout at you?” Niko asked with widened eyes.“That’s what you just did.” Reyna yelled.“You’re the one yelling, I did not yell, all I did was say give me cereal and here you are, shouting at me!” Niko yelled again.“Then what you did now is called what? Talking?” Reyna asked as she stared directly at him with her chest rising and falling.The both of them had no idea how it had escalated to this but Niko found his body itchy to even her stare and Reyna could not even stand him anymore. Who the hell does he think he is that he can just command her? And who the hell does she think she is that she can just shout at him? They glared hard at each other before Reyn
