The Austin Arrangement novel Chapter 51

"You don't need to be scared of me.I'm just here on business,I swear it!"He walked closer to me,just a couple of feet between us but it still made me uncomfortable."I heard about your parents,I'm so sorry,Nessa. I wanted to be there for you but I knew that it would only upset you more after everything."

He really cared about upsetting me more-Bullshit!! Maybe he couldn't find me back then,I made a lot of changes in life just so he wouldn't. But now he's here...

Is this just a coincidence?

Or was it,that when I got married to a Billionaire it led him right to me. Jeremy is well known and I guess now so am I. He could have seen something online or in the paper.

"How did you know about-about what happened to my parents?"I asked, because curiosity had gotten the better of me. Who would have told him?

"I read in-It was in the paper or online I think. I'm sorry about what happened to them,that must have been hard on you."Michael stepped closer to me again."I'm glad that I bumped into you,Nessa. I want you to know that I'm not the same guy I was back then."

Bullshit he's not!!

Michael's eyes were looking behind me and I turned around and I saw Jeremy standing abit away,by the opened doors to the restaurant.

I turned my head back around and looked at him."I need to go."

Michael grabbed my arm when I had turned around to walk away. He glanced behind me again before setting his eyes back on me."I know some things about that new Husband of yours. He's not who you think he is."

What does he mean?

I turned around and walked away,back to Jeremy now a little shaken up. I smiled as I reached him, an act like nothing was wrong."I'm sorry,there was a wait in the ladies."

He looked behind me."Who was that guy?"

I shrugged my shoulders."Just some guy,he was wondering if I knew any great places in the area."Liar Liar Liar! Jeremy and I walked threw the restaurant and were seated back at our table for dessert.

He was chatting to me,whist drinking his champagne and enjoying his desert but I couldn't focus. After running into Michael I was feeling on edge and I just wanted to get back to my room and lock myself in.

"Do you mind if we just go back to the room? I don't feel well!"Clothes had to come off-But not in a good way.

I felt like I was suffocating in my sheer navy blue bodysuit.

Jeremy looked at me,a little surprised by my quick change of mood."Um,Okay. I'll just get the check and we can go back."Jeremy paid our bill and that was that. He didn't make a fuss over us going back to the room early.
