Chapter 82 - Wrong Assumptions
A small smile formed on Steven's lips.
He covered her with a sheet and leaned towards her. He pecked her forehead and whispered, " Good night"
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and looked at him. His heart skipped as she noticed him kissing when she was sleeping. He was worried that she would think wrong about him. But he was surprised when she smiled at him.
" Mr. Brown…" she called his name which came out like a whisper from her mouth.
" Call me...Steven. I would like you to call me by my name" he said.
She held his hand and asked him to sit beside her on the bed. He hesitantly sat on the edge of the bed.
" I learned quickly about the work in your company. You taught me very well, " she giggled.
" You are a quick learner," he said.
" Can you teach me how to kiss? You are good at teaching…" she asked with drowsy eyes.
" I liked the kiss we shared…" she added.
He was on cloud nine by her compliment. He wished to kiss her till her lips were swollen. But he doesn't want to take advantage of her. He controlled himself and moved away from her.
Steven said, "You're drunk, Ruby." His voice was clear and bright.
Ruby slapped his hand away. "Of course I am. Am I not allowed to have a drink sometimes? It is just wine." She felt it was not worth arguing with him.
Suddenly she took his finger and placed it on her lips. Steven felt that her lips were warm and soft. He moved his hand slightly. Ruby immediately took her lips and sucked his finger.
The feeling was powerful. He was unable to resist her lips but he controlled himself. He thought that Ruby may have a feeling of guilt, so he didn't rush.
When he was in his thoughts, she pulled him towards her lips by fisting his black suit. Before he spoke out, she kissed his lips while placing her fingers in his hair. He realized how naive she is in kissing. But he enjoyed thoroughly how slowly her lips moved against his lips.
He used to be a playboy in his college time but now he has changed so much. He wanted a woman who would rule his heart. It had been many years since he spent the night with any woman on the bed. She provoked his desire with her kiss and her proximity. It was very hard for him to control not doing anything to her by her innocent stunt.
He moved away when she stopped sucking his lips.
" Sleep now. Good night" he informed her and stood properly.
When he was almost out of the room he thoughtfully turned back. Ruby was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed. He wanted to come back. He was scared that if he came back to her, he would not control himself and finally end up in bed with her the whole night.
He walked out of the room and took a cold shower to calm his desires building in his body. He laid on the bed as closed his eyes thinking about innocent Ruby.
...
At Katherine's house
It was late in the night, Martin got down from the taxi holding sleeping Sam in his arms. Then Katherine stepped out of the taxi. Her right palm and right wrist were covered with a wet bandage.
Martin paid for the taxi and they entered inside.
" Sam will sleep with me tonight. Sleep now. We will talk tomorrow." Martin informed and went to his room carrying Sam in his arms.
...
The next morning, Ruby opened her eyes and looked at the new surroundings. The interiors of the room were so luxurious. The wall paintings were beautiful. But she doesn't understand how she came to this place.
She was scared and looked at herself. She only remembered dancing with Steven in the restaurant last night. She noticed that she was lying on the bed and covered with a sheet. Her heart dropped looking at her condition. She removed the sheet on her body and checked herself. She was relieved to see clothes on her body. She placed her palms on her forehead and tried to think about whatever last night. She could not recollect anything of last night.
...
She stood up from the bed and came out of the room to know in which place she was.
" Good morning...Madam.." Someone greeted her.
The lady seemed to be 45 years old. She was wearing a frock that just looked like a uniform.
" I am Head servant-maid of this Mansion, Dorette" she introduced to Ruby.
" Hope you were tired last night. Shall I bring you a coffee?" She asked her.
Ruby nodded her head looking at the maid's face with confusion.
" Master Steven was in the gym doing his morning workout. If you want to meet you can" she informed and left the place.
Ruby was confused why he was brought here instead of dropping her at her house. She doesn't know where the gym room was but she was curious to know why he brought her to his home.
As she had no idea of the place, she was lost in the house and went in the direction of the dining. She heard two women talking.
Maid 1: I heard our master brought someone to the mansion last night in his arms.
Maid 2: Yes. It's common in rich families to enjoy with beautiful girls. Being a handsome and renowned businessman no girl can resist him. Hope that girl gets a good price for one night because he is a billionaire.
Meanwhile, the Head of the maids came and yelled at them to do their work not meddle with Master's business.
Ruby ran away from the place with tears in her eyes. She felt so ashamed and wanted mother earth to swallow her by their assumptions of her character. She quickly took her belongings from the guest room to leave while crying. She doesn't want to stay in his mansion even for one more minute.. She doesn't want anyone to think her a gold digger.
