Chapter 28: You Look Stunning Chapter 28: You Look Stunning Angelia

a few deep breaths, I stepped into my gold heels like Andy has suggested and fastened the straps before grabbing a black clutch for my phone and keys. I lived on the third floor and I hurried down the stairs, afraid whoever was picking me up would come up to my artment if I took so long. I really didn't want any of them to replace out how cr***py my apartment was, I bet they all had a penthouse or something equally impressive. A very masculine car was parked outside my apartment, it looked so out of place in my street where the only cars here were used by the middle class. I didn't know much about cars, not anything really but I knew a fancy car when I saw one. It was matte black, had heavily tinted windows and was sporty looking. Riccardo was leading against my building, waiting for me. He was busy on his phone and hadn't seen me yet, so I took the time to check him out. He was dressed in another fitted suit and in contrast to Marshal, he looked born in them. I am not saying Marshall looked bad in them but it seemed too formal for him.

As I approached him, I almost sta**red at the power rolling off him. It was immense even when he wasn't doing anything to assert his dominance. He must have heard me because he quickly 'shut off his phone, looking up at me, the beginning of a smirk frozen in place as he took me in from my head to my toes and up again. I shivered, not from any cold but from the way he was undressing me with his eyes.

"You look stunning, ready?" He asked, pushing himself off the wall and walked to the

seat.

He opened the door for me and I thanked. It was one of those car doors that opened upwards and

I would have slammed it right in my face if I had tried.

"Thank you," I mumbled.

"Yes, I am ready." I whispered in a lower voice, I was carefully sitting down, not wanting to flash.

anything, not that he hadn't seen before.

"Where are you going?" I asked as soon as he got into the car.

"At one of my friend's restaurants." He responded.

He didn't say much throughout the ride to our destination which suited me just fine. But I found myself staring at his hand and how they handled the driving stick and steering wheel. There was something **y about watching a man drive. Those fingers had been inside me, was weird to think about but equally hot.

I couldn't believe how I had managed to catch the attention of the three most handsome men I had ever seen. This felt more like a fairytale, albeit a naughty one than real life. My eyes widened when I saw the building and the name on the signboard. Literally zero point zero one percent of the Asaba population could get a table here. This couldn't be happening, I was totally fan-girling

right now. Not to mention, it was a five star restaurant.

"This place is impossible to get into. I muttered, awed by the thought of eating here. He smiled at my obvious excitement.

"It helps that I am friends with the owner." He responded casually.

Parking the car, he got out first and opened the door for me. He gave me the keys to the valet and grabbed my hand. The bouncers didn't blink as he guided me inside. I took in every single detail as we went further inside, the interior was lavish and expensive looking. It was light with white and gold touches, I bet they used crystal glasses and real silverware here.

A host welcomed us and led us to a private room where Marshall and Kingston were already seated. They had been talking about something when we entered but stopped when they saw walk in. The room was smaller, more intimate and the lights were lowered so that the lit candles came more into focus. It almost looked romantic but that wasn't quite right. Sensual was the correct word.

"Your menus are placed at the table for you, your server will be with you in just a minute." Our host said before leaving us. "Sunshine, you look...wow." Marshall whistled as study me, making me blush under his intense

gaze.

Kingston's eyes tracked my every movement, from when I stepped into the room and to when I sat down. They were almost entirely blank as he took me in, he really did have unusual dark eyes. "Thank you," I smiled at Marshall, taking the seat beside him.

Kingston sat on the other side and Riccardo took the chair at the head of the table. Just by spending a little amount of time with them, I got the sense he was the unofficial leader in their little group. *Your friend owns this place?" I asked as soon as I had settled in my chair.

I was still amazed that I was at this restaurant. I was a huge foodie but I rarely had money to eat out and I could only dream about eating here. Sometimes it really did come true.

"Friends with him?" Marshall laughed.

"He helped him build this place." He added and I blinked.

"Oh, really?" I directed it to Riccardo.

"Yes, I have always wanted to try food here but it is almost impossible to get a table here and it is not entirely affordable for a college student." Riccardo nodded like he understood. But how could he? He was filthy rich, that sounded really judgemental to me, I just couldn't see how he would know it was to live from paycheck to paycheck but I could be wrong. We took a look at the good options and my eyes widened at the price. Automatically, I started looking for the cheapest option.

"Relax, beautiful. Riccardo and his guests eat her for free. Pick whatever you want." Marshall said he must have noticed what I was doing and I smiled at him in gratitude.

It wasn't that I didn't think they could afford it, I just didn't like people paying for me which might be weird considering I accepted a membership worth over hundred thousand dollars. Even

so, that money would have gone to somebody either way, so why not me?

Now that I didn't need to stress about the price, I zeroed in on a steak that had me salivating just from reading about it. The server came in shortly after and took our orders.

The tension in the room grew after the server left, we all knew why we were here, to talk about. this proposition Riccardo had offered. After this night was through, I hoped I had come to a decision. I needed to be fast about that.
