Hey to all, so here I'm back with new the update hope you all will love it. Sorry for late update.
_________________________
I can't believe it, that Jackass Xavier kissed me and that too in front of all of the elites, in the middle of the dance floor. Now, everyone will think that I'm after his glory and wealth. I'm embarrassed and I feel disgusting. He humiliated me. After that one stupid kiss my world has been set upside down literally.
After my dramatic exit from ballroom I was attacked by press thanks to the security which escort me to limo safely. It doesn't stop there at the hotel too. As soon as I get inside the safety of my suite, I got a call from Victor my bodyguard that my jet is ready to aboard back to the home. Because I don't know somehow, someone actually made a video of that gosh, I can't even talk about it. Shit. What have I done? The person who made a video sell it immediately to press.
Make it go viral. The news spread like wild fire. Also that Xavier, after that he didn't even try to contact me to apologize. I'm sure mom and dad will be mad at me. But it's their idea that I should be friendly with him. I did that only. It's he who kissed me. Ok, I kiss back, but he made me.
Right now I'm in my chamber alone Victor is outside my chamber. Rosetta my assistant is out to check rush at the entrance of the building. My intercom rang. I picked it up.
"How bad is it?" I asked her immediately.
"Bad! Very, very bad. Entrance, Backside parking doors all are blocked. I talked to head security. They said they'll clear people when your car will exit." Good as I wished thank god. After the morning incident, I can't handle to be attacked by them again. Their questions are disgusting. Like:-
Are you dating Mr Xavier?
Y
Gross, it's not that only, even on Twitter I got tweets from models and actresses about being a whore who is after his money. They have no idea how much loaded I'm currently. I got a fairly equal wealth as much as he has. He got in cash I got in an estate. Plus his financial conditions are public where I tend to keep it private. No its not black money still I don't like showing off like him.
Some people are such a judgmental. No one is going to see his fault. Why, I don't know. All I know is I have nothing to do with him. I left Adrian cause he cheated on me, and I'm not going to repeat my mistake by being with a man like Xavier. He's those kind of man who change women like he's changing a tie. I hate him for that I know I'm judging him, but I can't help it.

I should be on my way to the home otherwise if this rush outside increase I'll be in trouble. I shut down my P.C. I took some files which I haven't cross checked yet with me. I pick up my handbag and cell phone. I straighten my skirt. I brush my ponytail with my fingers. After that I made my way to the door.
I switch off lights and snatch the keys from the keyholder beside door. I walked out and turn to the door again and locked it. Weird? I guess not. Trust issues? Ha-ha nope, it's a habit, dad used to do it when he was here as the C.E.O. Of Joseph's. So I'm just following his path.
"Come miss, the doors are cleared and your car is at the door ready for you." Victor said while he was holding the elevator doors for me. I just nodded.
I wave at Rosetta. And made my way to the elevators. I reached the ground floor and as I pass, everyone was wishing me good evening. I'm leaving earlier than daily. Due to obvious reasons. I already talked to my lawyer surely I can get rid of the paparazzi by tomorrow.
I hopped inside my car yup, I bought it cause Justin Bieber has same car I'm a huge fan of Justin Bieber. As said doors are cleared for my exit. I drive alone, I like it that way and hurriedly make my way to the home.
Once I get home, I saw some cars in the driveway. Oh, so we have guests. So as soon as I get inside I got shocked because the first person I see is XAVIER FREAKING WILLIAM what the hell is he doing here?
"Here she is comes Susan why didn't you tell me before? I'm so sorry I got upset at you last night." huh, what is the matter, what is mum talking about? I give her a confused look.
"Cut that expression you silly girl, Xavier told us everything" What the hell is happening. I eyed him angrily. He winked at me. It's not good what did he tell them? Did he tell them about the Vegas? Shit. Please no no no no...
"Mom, what are you trying to say I'm not getting it, whatever he told you guys is a lie. " I exclaimed. Everyone started laughing. Like I just cracked some joke. Big one.
"Susan darling, I just told your parents that we're in love that is why we kissed at the party." That caught me off guard, Xavier answer my question and not only that, he again kissed me on my left cheek making me blush like crazy.
"Such a shy, I'm really happy if you are dating him Susan." Uncle said. What? No way! Before I can say anything. Hot breath tickles my left ear and

"Go with my lie Susan otherwise you'll regret it," I suck in a deep breath. I faced him stepping away from him.
"I-I want to talk to you Xavier for a minute in alone." I looked at our parents with pleading eyes. They all nodded and encouraged us to go out and talk.
As soon as me and Xavier get out of the living room. I pushed him a little. "Why the hell did you say that?" I asked him furiously I'll murder him with my bare hands.
"Simple, because I have no way to deal with them. I kissed you they asked why I did it, the first thing came in my mind is that we love each other and I said it." He said in duh tone, like he's so cool with this. He's also enjoying it for sure.
"Go back in the living, right now and tell them the truth that We. Don't. Love. Each. Other " I firmly told him
"No, I won't who are you to order me? Woman! You should be grateful to me that I told them we love each other." Like he is some damn Greek god. How dare he.
"Fine I'll be going then, and I'll tell them the truth and I'm not some whore of yours who'll be treating you as a god and do whatever you'll say and I'm not an Idiot, caveman like you are idiots." With that I stomped my foot on the floor and made my way to the living room.
But when I reach there Xavier was closely following after me. We both hear some conversation which left him as well as me stunned on our way.
"I told you, my son can't stay away from Susan once he saw her in that dress." Says his mum.
"Of course at first I thought that it won't work, but I think I should have agreed with you before." What is mom talking about?
"Eleanor now, we both can die peacefully finally we got him a perfect girl for him. Who is made for him like we all decided when Susan was born." Where is this going what is uncle trying to imply here. I curiously eye Xavier behind me who is listen to them like me. He shugged his shoulder. He's clueless like me I guess.
"Finally! Trust me, I got so worried when Susan moved out with Adrian. I felt like that our dream can never become reality. But with these two women I guess. It'll dream come true soon." Dad too. He never wanted me and Adrian together what dream is they are talking about?
"Now stop it let us announce it to them." Mom is going announce, but what?
I stepped in front of them. I was so confused that I didn't notice that I was holding Xavier's hand. Until they all start looking lovingly at our hands. I immediately take my hand away from his. On top of that I wiped my hand on skirt just to irritate Xavier.
"So we all decided that it's time, oh my god this is so exciting, I can't believe it's happening." Eleanor start getting emotional. She gestured me sit between her and mom. I went towards her and sat in between them.
"You know Susan I always dream of Xavier marrying a beautiful girl like you. That's why when you were born I told your mom that once you become a lady that you are now, we will play match you up with Xavier. Meaning when time will come. We'll convert this friendship into family." I got where she is getting. Please no no no.
"But when Xavier grow up he disappointed us by his ways and you on other hand got in love. We nearly lost our dream of seeing you both as a couple." I sigh in relief so their very idiotic dream is over now.
"But when Xavier told us you both are seeing each other. Trust me it was best moment for all of us. Now we will soon see you both as couple and hopefully little Xavier and Susan too." WHAT THE HELL NOOOOOO I gave Xavier a death glare he look like he's about to shout.
"Mom, no" I was just started.
"Dad I'll not marry her, I'm happy in my bachelor life" Seriously he's trying to reject me now.
"No bits, no ifs, no nothing, go to your room Susan and get changed" Suddenly dad spoke up I do as I was told. My father rarely get angry, but when he do I hide in my room. After long time he raised his voice at me I was nearly at tears. I ran to upstairs. I gave Xavier last glance and he was angry.
I got inside my room I open my bedside drawer I took out a frame. "Adrian you are dumbass, I'm in this mess because of you." I saw few tears split on frame and that's the moment I realize I'm crying. I have loved Adrian for so long it's nearly impossible for me to move on.
