《Married to the Bidder》Chapter 7: His World

Advertisement

Finally I made up my mind through the group of expensive clothes that my great husband brought me. God, as much as I can I dont want to look like my usual look at the club. All my clothes that I wear ay work are suppose to be revealing to attract some customers.

But I since my life has finally changed, even this is only temporary. I am a wife now.

A wife to a very famous and handsome man.

My life is different.

So for now, I want to be different.

But a part of my brain tells me that these clothes also hides my past life...my past is cheap...very low class but look these expensive clothes! Maybe this means also that I had change. That I am not the old Belle that works in a gentleman's club

So I picked an outfit that is...simple. A white body hugging top, it has as a halter neckline, black skinny jeans, then tied my hair in a ponytail.

Shoes...

I dont have any shoes.

Maybe my old ones.

I was going to get my shoes that I wore on my wedding day but my door suddenly opens making me jump in surprise. Only seeing Rafael holding the doorknob

"Jesus...Rafael, didnt you know how to knock?" I asked, hiding my surprise

"This is my penthouse. I can do whatever I want" he replied mockingly

"And I am your wife...and this is my room" I replied back also in a mocking tone too but my face is more in a teasing way but his was serious

He seems to not expect my reply but his frowning face changes into a smile "Your tough, eh?" He complimented "Anyway, here are some shoes and jewelries you needed"

J-jewelries? He brought me freaking jewelries!?

Some men came in wearing butler suits...hotel staff maybe. They are all holding several bags, some are boxes and packages. My eyes were wide open, my mouth was hanging open as they set them on the ground

"Jesus Christ..." I murmured on myself. "Rafael..."

"Thank you" Rafael told the boys and sign something that the boy handed to him. But I just stood their, dumbfounded

The boys finally left my room. Talk about suddenly bargin in.

Rafael opened one of the packages and my eyes shot open seeing those shining glamourous wonderful shoes. Wait, shining? I think they are only shining in my eyes.

"Pick some of the shoes that is best for that outfit you are wearing" he ordered me, "I am gonna wait downstairs"

Bossy as always.

After that he left my room, closing the door shut. I finally had time to dig in this boxes. What should l pick?

**********

After 5 minutes of checking up the shoes, jeweleries,makeups and bags. I finally picked a black ankle stilettos to match this outfit and black a black bag with chain strap

I put some light makeup on. I know these makeups...these are so expensive! At work, I only have makeup I bought from a cheap store or just borrow some from Catalina or my coworkers

Once I am done, I arranged my hair again in a clean high ponytail then checked out the mirror to see myself and I saw a totally different Isabelle.

So clean, so beautiful, so different.

Okay, I am good to go.

I left my room and head downstairs and I heard Rafael first at the living room...he's talking over the phone....and he looked not good.

"Call me immediately once finished..No, I want it right now...I don't fucking care!!! Just get it right!" He spoke angrily then he ended the call once he saw me walking down the stairs.

Oh God, he is staring at me..

His eyes were glued to me and it travel down my body and I feel like my legs turn jelly.

"So? W-what do you think?" I asked him, twirling around for him to see it. A little nervous what is he going to say.

"Perfect" he murmured

"What?" I asked, didn't get that one

"You look perfect, Belle." he repeated with a smile. Then he shrugged his head "Now, Let's go" he said turning his back to me

Huh?

That's all?

After I worked hard for the nice outfit, That's all he can say?! What the Fuck?! Can someone tell that man how beautiful I look?

Jeez.

But I was stomping my foot when I got to him as we entered the elevator. I noticed that the elevator boy is different now. Well since Rafael already fired the one who kicked me out.

Rafael was talking someone on his phone, but in a different language...Spanish, I think. Or Italian?

He was talking to that way until we reached his car. "To King Knight Co." he told the driver and he hits the engine.

"Where?" I asked "You are gonna take me to your parents company?"

"Yes" he told me, putting an arm behind my seat "My brother is there and he called me earlier to Come over then we will buy some rings"

"Rings?"

"Our wedding rings" he answer "We forgot the rings when we got married. We need that if I introduced you to my family"

"Wait...you said you want to win over the company from your brother. Why does he have it?"

"That was my older brother, the one I hated the most. The one we are gonna visit is my younger stepbrother"

"Oh, cool" I muttered, turning my attention outside to the surroundings

Rafael and I keep silence to the rest of the road. I don't know how I am gonna make a conversation with this wealthy man.

He looks so high and mighty to me.

A 37 minutes later, we arrived at a huge building. Someone in suit opened the door for us and bowed his head politely "Good morning, Mr. Knight"

"Thank you, Billy. Is my bother here yet?" He asked him and he grab my hand as I got out from the car

"No sir. They haven't arrived yet" he answered

"Good" Rafael breathe out then take my hand and he started walking in the building. Men and women greeted him as he walk passed them but of course, being Rafael...he ignore most of them.

So rude.

"You're not friendly, aren't you?" I whispered at him when we are in the elevator.

"Being friendly are for kids, Belle. You don't need them in business" he spoke coldly and pressed the 28th floor.

I just snorted "Whatever. I don't understand that business thing you had"

Rafael just chucked as we are in the elevator. It took a minute before we got to te right floor and we were greeted by a blonde woman in a tight office outfit.

She must be the secretary.

"Is Joshua in the office?" Rafael asked her, ignoring the Flirty look that the woman is giving her.

"Yes, Mr. Knight..." she nod her head leading the way towards the main office.

"No need to lead us, Ms. Watson. I surely know where the office is" Rafael ordered coldly and drag me away

Poor girl.

"Hey! Learn how to smile a bit, would you?" I told him, as he continue dragging me somewhere until we reached the huge black doors.

Rafael knocked twice before opening it. I let my eyes roam around the place as I stepped it. The color was simple but strong

Large glass walls and grey post and ceilings. There is a expensive looking desk, with a big leather office chair and a Apple brand laptop and other files on it

But my eyes soon focus on the man looking at the glass window. He had his back facing me, he was wearing a well design office suit and I can clearly see that this boy is one handsome man through his reflection on the glass.

Some luxury couch was in front of the desk, and a small wooden coffee in the middle

"Joshua..." Rafael called walking in and me, following behind him.

This Joshua turn around and a boyish smile formed in his handsome feature. "Rafael, my man!"

They gave each other a manly hug but the happiness in their face is very visible.

"Look who has finally show himself after a year" Joshua said, breaking from their hug "Seriously, brother...you look more handsome"

"Yeah because I have finally met someone that can make me happy at all times" Rafael respond, by my waist "Joshua, I like you to meet my wife...Isabelle Knight" he introduced me "And this is my brother, Joshua"

"Glad to meet you, Joshua" I shook hands with him

"Just Josh...only your husband calls me by my full name"

Your husband

I should get used to that.

"Okay, Josh" I smiled and he also smiles back before turning back to his brother

"Damn you, Rafael! I can't believe you hide this girl from us this entire year. She is hot!" He playfully glared at him making us to laugh

"It's not that I am hiding my beautiful wife...I just don't want to share someone who is mine" Rafael said, his voice was husky making me blush

Josh laughed "So possessive as aways. How did you even fell for this retarded man?" He turn to me

I let out a weak chuckle. How am I suppose to answer that? That we were forced marriage? I actually married a stranger!

"Well, Josh...he may be cold and dangerous but this big guy can be soft and sweet too" I said, smirking at Rafael

Josh grin and winked at me "I am starting to like this girl"

"Oh no, brother. She is mine and mine only" Rafael stated, his eyes on mine making my inside melt.

"Okay, okay...there is no way I will steal her, Rafael. You know that I am always in your side" Josh raised his hands in the air and walk towards to seat on the couch "Please...seat down. I have something to tell you, Rafael"

Rafael and I followed on the couch and sat next to each other. He put his hand on my lap to make us look like a lovable couple...which is I think just a show off but I am actually enjoying our position

"Well, the reason why I called you is...Dad is having a party at the island next week~"

"~Next week? That is too sudden" Rafael blurt out, and I can see that in his face that he was not ready

"Yeah, I know" Josh's face suddenly turn serious "But that is not the main reason"

"What?"

"Roberto is back"

Then silence...

I felt Rafael's hand clenched on my lap making me confuse. His eyes that were happy turn into cold once again. His lips pressed into a thin line.

Who is Roberto?

"Since when?" Rafael finally spoke

"This morning" Josh answered, his hands resting on his lap as his blonde hair falling down to his forehead "That's the reason why Dad advance the party...to celebrate his first son's arrival"

Rafael sigh deeply and cursed silently "That man... I wish he never return"

Is he and this Roberto had something before that made him this angry?

Oh, this Roberto and Rafael are the candidate to win the company he wanted.

"Rafael, Dad is expecting you to come this time"

Rafael intertwined our fingers together and his eyes were on mine. His eyes suddenly soften for at lease a second. This is one of the reason why he bought me, right?

To show me to his parents.

"Yeah, we will be there" Rafael said looking at his brother

Another wide grin formed in Josh's face. "Great! They will be totally surprise to see your wife. I once mention to them that you got married they were shock"

Rafael scoffed, rolling his eyes "That's why there is no more forcing me to get married to family friends" he suddenly stood up "Cause I am so sick of it"

Forcing to get married? And I really don't get along with their conversation. Rafael is not really into sharing his life but I also forget to ask him about his life style.

"I am really sorry, brother, but my wife and I need to be somewhere" Rafael said and hugged his brother once again "I will see at the party"

"Okay...I will email you later when and where" Josh said escorting us out "...Oh, Isabelle"

"Belle" I said "I am just Belle"

"Okay, Belle" Josh flashes me a cute smile and put a hand on my shoulder with Rafael looking at us blankly "...My brother is a very kind man...forgive him sometimes if he is a little bossy"

Rafael frowns "Hey, what does that supposed to mean?"

Josh winks at me and his smile remains "You are my sister now too, so feel free and don't be shy to ask me if you need help"

I smiled back at him "Of course, Josh. See you at the party" we hugged each other before Rafael and I head out the building.

The car and Rafael's driver was waiting downstairs for us "Where are we going next, Mr. Knight?"

"To the best jewelry store, Logan" he said to the driver and we hop inside the car. We are finally gonna pick a ring.

Not just any ring...a wedding ring! This is one gonna prove that we are married.

I was gonna ask Rafael about this Roberto they are taking about because I don't have any clue about it because he never mention something like that to me.

But Rafael's phone rang and he said it was business thing again so I let him be. I will ask him tonight about this.

□□□□□□□□□

After 10 minutes of drive, we stopped at some shopping street. I never seen this place before. There are a lot of people shopping around or just walking around, enjoying the time.

They have street vendors, restaurants and branded shops also.

You cannot drive the car inside so we just have to walk to the jewelry store. My eyes were roaming fast around the place as I see people walking by.

"I can't believe that I had been missing this" I whispered but Rafael heard it.

He grab my hand and I felt electricity again through my veins as he tighten the hold on it "Well get used to it because you are in my world now"

Then we started walking. Rafael totally shine through the crowd because I notice men or women look at him as he pass by but he seem to be used to it already.

I feel myself shrink as they look at me as well and hide behind Rafael but he didn't let me. He let me walk beside him and he gave me a look that I can't protest

We finally arrive at the jewelry store and Rafael came in quickly and my mouth was wide open as j look around the place.

Am I in heaven?

This place is shining and sparkling!

Diamonds, gold's, silvers and everything! They are here! My eyes focus on the gold and diamond necklaces on the stand. I was very afraid to touch even one from them.

My eyes got stopped when I saw a beautiful necklace on one of the stand. It was simple yet beautiful. It has a little heart shaped diamond on the center and it was so gorgeous!

By my head started to get dizzy when I saw the prize.

Jeez, how many zeroes do this simple necklace. 8?

"Welcome, Mr. Knight. How may I help you?" A woman with brown hair approach us. Making me jump a little.

I turn to Rafael and he answered "We are looking for the best wedding rings you have" he said to her and she brings out some wedding rings to choose from and my heart just stopped.

Diamonds are really a girl's best friend

"Choose what you like, Belle" he told me as he watch me choose from the hundred pairs of rings displayed in front of me.

"I-I can't choose...." I whispered at Rafael

"Why? Do you want to look for other shop?" He asked

"No!" I snapped, a little louder making the others to look at me and I flushed embarrassingly "I mean they are too many...I can't choose"

Rafael blinks twice then he grab something from the box. He takes the gold on out "I think silver ones look better as a wedding ring"

I was a little surprise at his suggestion. We are really like husband and wives now. How cute.

I nod my head "I like silver than gold" I told him and pick one and gaze at it. This is a silver ring, it was fatter than the others.

"I don't like that" he commented so I put it back and choose another.

"Here" he show me a silver ring that has too much diamond on it

I wrinkle my nose "I would want something more simple"

"Yeah, great idea" Rafael muttered and I can see that he is really into this and it made me so happy to see that he is helping me.

A few minutes later, we still haven't decided for a ring but then suddenly, my eyes set on one ring on the corner. Why did I didn't notice this before?

I picked it up and it has diamonds on it. 5 simple diamonds and they parks wonderful.

"That is beautiful" Rafael notice it too "Try it on"

I slip it on my ring finger and stare at it. It's so beautiful. I can't help but stare at it longer. "I like this one"

Rafael smiled and motion the woman "We'll take this and it's pair " he said and the woman packed it and gave it to me as Rafael pay for it at the cashier.

I don't know but I feel a little jumpy knowing that I finally have a wedding ring. Sure I haven't dream of having one but there is this happiness in me that I don't know why.

Why is that?

Rafael took it from it's box when we were in the car and we wore it together. Wow, it is so perfect on my hand and so does in Rafael. His was just a simple silver ring but aren't male rings just simple, right?

Wow, it is so amazing.

I can't explain what I am feeling right now. I am too happy and enjoying the feeling. I am a wife now. That is so different.

God I am just so happy
