Chapter 2

"Let's go," he said as he held my hand and walked towards the exit. 

Seriously! Holding hands the next moment we meet? Can't you take this a bit slow! 

I thought we were going to hire a taxi or take the bus to the mall. 

But as soon as we reached the exit, a Mercedes-Benz was waiting for us. 

He took me to the car, opened the door and asked me sit in. 

And then suddenly put me inside the car and closed the door. 

Seriously! I didn't even have a chance to say no. This car was extremely expensive. 

What if I damaged it? How was I going to repay him? Ahhh. This.....what am I going to do?

After a long drive, we were atlast at the entrance of the mall. But this mall is huge and it's costly here.

"But Mr William, I don't think I can afford anything here," I said. 

"Don't worry. Buy anything you want. It's all on me. And by the way, just call me William. We're no strangers. We are going to be partners from now on," he said. 

"But it doesn't seem fair. It's your money and I will not be able to repay it," I replied. 

"It's alright. You don't need to repay me. Just treat me as a friend, alright?," he added.

"Thank you, William," I said as my face bloomed with happiness. 

Not only was I going to shop in an expensive mall, I had got a new friend too. 

As soon we entered the mall, were stopped by a woman. She seemed to be a receptionist. 

"Stop right there. You people cannot enter the mall," she said. 

"Why?," we asked. 

"You poor wretches, can't afford anything in here. This place is not for you. You can go and shop at the opposite roadside stalls outside," she said. 

"How dare you!," William said as his eyes became red with anger, "What if I own this mall?" 

"Hahaha. Are you kidding me. You can't even afford anything here and yet you dream big," the woman began to laugh. 

William took out his phone and yelled, "John, get down here. I have a problem." And soon a man came rushing towards us. 

"Mr Smith, are you all right? What happened?," he said. 

"This receptionist of yours dares to stop me and my friend from entering my own mall," William said. 

"Hey you, do you know who this is? This is Mr William Smith, the owner of this mall and the young master of the Smith Family. 

He is the next heir to the Typhoon Gaming Company. How dare you offend him?," the man said as he slapped the receptionist, "You are fired. Guards, kick her out." 

She began to cry and beg for forgiveness as she was dragged out of the mall.

What? Will..... William Smith is the son of Mr Walter Smith? 

I thought, as their surnames were same, they were far relatives. 

But turns out, this man is his son. I... I was going to spend Walter Smith's money? Ahhh. My heart won't fail from shock right?

"You alright?," he said as he held my hand. "You are the God's son?," I said as I looked up. 

Tears of happiness were flowing from my eyes. "Eh? God? Who?," he asked. 

"Yes, your father is a God for us, gamers. It's thanks to him that we are alive," I said. 

"Oh, alright. Now let's go shopping, shall we?," he asked. "Alright," I said. 

The mall was so huge. What were we supposed to shop? First we went to the clothes department. 

I asked William to select some dresses for me. But I hadn't thought that he would select a lot of dresses. 

I had to try out each and every dress. I was very tired. 

But all the clothes he had chosen looked really good on me. 

I looked so beautiful in them. He said that I looked like a fairy. 

I selected a few clothes for him and at last we were done cloth-shopping.

"You seem tired. Shall we take a break?," said William as he helped me sit on a bench. "Alright," I said. "Wait here, I'll come soon," he said and went away. 

I sat there alone, looking here and there and waiting for him. 

After a long wait I was tired. Then atlast I could see him coming to me from far away.

He held two ice-cream cones in his hands. He came to me and handed a cone to me.

"You seemed tired. So I brought some ice-cream for both of us," he said as he stood beside the bench and began to eat. 

I couldn't believe it. A rich businessman was standing beside me eating while I a poor girl was sitting on a bench alone. 

I slid to a side of the bench. "You can sit if you want," I said. 

He slowly came and sat beside me. "How is it?," he asked. 

"What?," I asked. "How is the ice-cream?," he continued. 

"It's delicious. This is Strawberry, my favourite flavour," I said. 

After we ate the ice-creams, we were to go to the movie. 

The time was around 6pm. We headed to the theatre. 

William had bought the tickets online for the movie, The CEO's Stand-In Bride. 

I couldn't believe that we were going to watch a romantic movie.

I don't know what was going on or how it started.

After the movie had started we were so into the movie that we held hands and leaned against each other. 

As soon as the movie ended, I suddenly came to my senses. I suddenly got up and walked outside.

William came to me and asked, "What happened? Was the movie not good?."

"No, it's not that. I was suddenly shocked by the situation between us."

As soon as I said this, both of our faces turned as red as tomatoes.

"Ahem! We should go home now. It's getting dark," he said.
