CHAPTER SIXTY TWO**BRIANNA**The door was barged open and I quickly broke off the kiss to see who was at the door. I was expecting to see one of my coworkers but instead, I saw a beautiful middle-aged woman and I hastily got off Adrian's lap at the thought of the woman being a client or his business partner.y face went red. I sneaked a glance at Adrian and he doesn't even look fazed in any way. I glanced at the woman too and she was just staring with wide open eyes.Adrian straightened his clothes and sat up before facing the woman."Mom, what are you doing here? You didn't tell me you were coming." He uttered and my heart skipped a beat. Did he just call her mom? She's his mother? And she just caught us kissing?! Oh my fucking gosh! I feel like the ground should open up and swallow me whole right now. I might die of embarrassment at this rate.I sneakily looked at the woman and saw that she and Adrian did have some features in common. Like the hair and eye color. He also has the sh

CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR**BRIANNA**"Okay... So the thing is that your mom said that she has been inviting you over for dinner but you haven't been coming for reasons that nobody knows except you. She asked me to help convince you to come to dinner on Friday because she believes that we're very close and that you will listen to me if I persuade you." I said all in one breath.I noticed his demeanor change when I was done talking. His face became expressionless, like I had just said something I shouldn't have said in the first place."I'm not going to any family dinner. I have my reasons and I'll rather keep them to myself." He replied coldly."But your mom insisted. According to her, she has been trying every means possible to get you to come but you didn't listen. I'm her only hope for you to come home." I said calmly."I don't care if you're her only hope or not. I've said this to myself that I won't be going to the family house and you're not going to change my mind." He uttered, the sa

CHAPTER SIXTY SIX**BRIANNA**Adrian led me up the short steps that led to the main door with his hand on the small of my back and I calmed down as I felt the heat of his body. He rang the doorbell and Stella appeared a few seconds later, a big smile forming on her face when she set her eyes on us."There is my favorite couple!" She exclaimed excitedly as she engulfed the both of us in a bear hug."Mom! I just styled that hair!" Adrian huffed as she roughed his styled hair and I giggled."What? I just can't help myself." She batted ber eyelashes at him innocently and I couldn't stop myself from giggling."Hey Stella." I waved at her with a smile and she grinned widely at me."Brianna! I thought you guys weren't going to show up." Stella uttered."Why would you think that? I promised to convince him to come and I did. I don't break my promises." I stated."Glad to see the both of you here. And I wonder how you got to convince Adrian, this dude is a stone!" She said and I chuckled."I d

CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHTNEXT MORNING**BRIANNA**I woke up by 4 a.m. the next morning because of how anxious I was feeling. I took my bath and dressed up. I also checked my travelling bag to make sure that I had everything I would be needing. I didn’t want to leave anything behind. I also had a light breakfast because I wasn’t sure if we would be served on the plane. It was 5 a.m. now and I was waiting for Adrian to come and pick me up so that we could leave for the airport. Thirty minutes later, someone came knocking on our front door and I instantly knew that it was Adrian because we weren’t expecting anybody else. I got up to unlock the door and saw him standing outside in his handsome glory.I greeted him with a hug and ushered him inside."Hey, good morning." "Morning, beautiful. Did you sleep well?" He asked as he sat on the couch. He seems to have made hi self comfortable here, and doesn't mind what the house looks like."Actually, I didn't. I was so anxious that I kept tossing a

CHAPTER SEVENTY**BRIANNA**I woke up on a bed a few hours later. I looked out the window to see that we were still flying. The flight from California to Spain takes over eleven hours so it's understandable. Everywhere was dark and my stomach growled, reminding me that the last time I ate was in the morning.I strode to the main area of the jet to find Adrian in his laptop. He must be working. Me eyes raked over his body, stopping at the part where his shirt was unbuttoned and I could see his bare chest with curly hair around it.He must have seen me come in or noticed that I was seriously checking him out because he raised his head and our eyes locked. A playful smirk formed on his face."Checking me out, huh?" He asked playfully. "Don't worry, I'm all yours and I ain't going nowhere."He said that with a wink and my face went hot."I wasn't checking you out." I rolled my eyes."Hoe could one look so hot?" I muttered to myself and went to sit beside him."Huh huh, in sure you weren't
