Taming A Billionaire Chapter 261 - Two Hundred And Sixty-one: Have So Much Fun To

Chapter 261 - Two Hundred And Sixty-one: Have So Much Fun Together

Reina's point of view

"I'm sorry I'm late," I apologized, drawing out a seat, and sat down comfortably.

"Woah!" Eden exclaid, taking in the sight of my dark erald hair.

"Don't say a word, I don't need your critique, " I warned him quickly.

Thankfully, Allen was sensible enough to use so gothic erald and not pastel mint green or worse punk Neon green.

"What criticism," He said, "I was going to say you look goddamn sexy,"

A faint blush crept up my face but I hid it away. Seems while Niklaus's good with his hands this one's good with his words - I need to be careful with both.

"You really think they look good?" I still couldn't help but ask. Sigh, won, and beauty.

He smiled at , exposing peerless white teeth, and for a mont there, I felt deja vu, like so mories flashed before my eyes. Had I been close with Eden too? No way, I couldn't have been a two-tir. Seriously, I needed my mories back desperately, so things did not seem right.

"You look good, Reina," He complinted .

Well, it looks like I wasn't going to have a hard ti with this one, he doesn't insist I'm Reina or it was just a ploy to make lower my guard and catch my lie unaware.

At once the waiter ca to our table and we made our orders from the nu handed to us. It was a high-end restaurant so I didn't have to worry about any video leaking out like the last ti with Niklaus.

"So, why did you decide to nag with this eting, Eden?" I went ahead to kickstart this discussion. I had no ti for his ga.

"What do you think, Reina?" his face curved with his killer smile, "I wanted to have a al with a lovely woman like you,"

I smiled back too, two can play at this ga.

"Really, I'm so flattered. So you've been bothering the past few days because you wanted to go on a date with ? "

He took a sip of water, "Yes,"

I threw my head back and laughed, "Why don't we co off with the pretense, Eden. I'm sure you have questions on your mind,"

"Questions like what?" He continued with his pretense.

"Questions like how I look so similar to the Maya you failed to protect?"

He shook his head, "Oh, don't worry,"

"What?"

"I couldn't protect Maya, so I'll court and protect you instead. I'm sure Reina would do better than Maya since they're the sa person," He dropped.

My smile froze.

I glanced up, our eyes t and held. For a complete minute, none of us said a word; we just kept staring till tears almost fell from our eyes.

"What do you want, Eden?" I crossed my leg over the other, adjusting to my seat. This was business ti.

"You," He was blunt.

"I'm sorry Eden but I'm not -"

"You might have changed everything but those eyes, they never lie," He stated, his probing gaze never leaving .

I felt exposed under his scrutiny like he could see right through - not that I was going to agree to his claims readily.

"So what if I'm Maya? What are you going to do about it?" I challenged him with my brow raised.

His eyes darkened.

Eden leaned closer, took my hand I placed on the table, and brought it to his lips, placing a kiss on it, "If you were Maya - which you are - I'll make sure not to let you slip through my fingers this mont around,"

My pulse raced but I didn't think much about it. After all, a woman's body was designed to react to a man's advances.

"Instead of courting , why don't you figure out how you're going to co out of Adam's control," was my sudden comnt.

His eyes widened, the grip on my hand loosening.

I continued, "Anabelle needs a full treatnt else, who knows when her body might start to reject those antidotes,"

"H-how did you know about that?" Eden couldn't believe his eyes.

An evil smirk tilted my lips to the side,

"Never you trust any woman with Maya's face,"

There was a roller-coaster of emotions on his face - mostly confusion and disbelief.

I pulled my hand completely from his grasp, "When you're ready to not date , we can et up again. Who knows?" I shrugged, "I might have that antidote you desperately needed,"

With that being said, I picked up my purse just as the waiter arrived with our food.

"Bon appetit," I winked at the defeated Eden and took my leave.

I walked out of the restaurant with my phone to my ears, answering a call.

"Are you sure he has the evidence," I called my assistant to ensure I played the right card?

"Yes, he has the evidence. It wasn't destroyed and I'm sure Adam knows that which is why he's trying his best to clip his wings," She responded.

My car was parked on the side of the road, so I just had to cross over to get to it. I looked left and right and left again to confirm the road was clear before stepping out.

"His birthday's coming up soon, right?" I asked.

"Yes,"

"Get an invitation, it would be morable -"

The loud pitched humming of tires against the asphalt interrupted and I turned around to the source of the noise only to be blinded by the headlights of a car coming at with high-speed.

It was too late to dodge it and when I thought this was my end, soone pushed out of harm's way. We rolled out of danger while the car zood off after failing its evil mission.

Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw another car chase after it - it was probably Andrew. I looked down at the face of my rescuer only to discover it was Eden. Oh no.

"Hey, are you okay?" I asked out of concern, getting off of him. He had taken much of the impact while saving my ass.

"Yeah, I should be," He replied as I helped him to his feet.

But the mont he stood, he passed out on my body.

"Eden," I shook him yet he didn't wake up.

Amid being watched by passersby who had witnessed what happened, I dragged Eden who weighed quite a ton to my car and drove to the nearest hospital where

he was admitted and ministered treatnt - turns out he had a concussion.

"Who's responsible for the attack?" I asked Andrew, standing in the room while I kept watch over Eden.

"The Lucian Family - the eldest son to be precise. Turns out his beloved girlfriend choose your father over him,"

"Cherry?" I was disgusted. I hated that girl with a passion. She was not with my father because she loved him but what she could benefit from him.

"Exactly,"

"So I almost lost my life because of so slut who's currently in so Caribbean Island having fun!" I snapped.

"Yes," Andrew answered.

Groaning, I rubbed my throbbing temple with my eyes shut. When I opened them, a resolution was burning in them. It was ti to kick soone's ass.

"Where is the man?"

"In a club downtown. What are you planning to do, Reina?"

"Teach him a lesson. He shouldn't joke with my life, I still have my twins to train up," I spat angrily.

"I'll co with you," He insisted.

"I don't care what you do, just don't get in my way," I told him sternly.

"No problem, princess," He said.

I eyed Andrew, I hated that na. I don't know what happened between him and Erald, but he's been behaving appropriately lately - to my relief.

There was no need to head ho to change, I just walked into a departnt store, got the typical skimpy, sexy, party wares and purple wig alongside heavy make-up; I looked nothing like .

Having Andrew with was an advantage because he sohow worked things out and I got into the club without having to queue up.

"Jeremy Lucian, first son of the Lucian family and heir to the Iron fist mafia; a useless scumbag and waste of earth's oxygen," I profiled him after sighting the asshole with his scoundrel friends.

He must be celebrating for having his useless revenge on Sakuzi - what a weasel.

The club reeked of cheap perfus and sweaty bodies rubbing together on the dance floor yet I picked a drink from the bar and walked over to his booth.

"Hi," I said and without warning, sat astride his lap earning sharp "Oohs" from his peers.

Jeremy was startled by my sudden arrival but when his eyes drank in my features, his lips curved to the side. Oh I know, I looked nothing short of a hooker.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, "I have been staring at you for a while now and I have to say, you're my type of person," I purposely purred into his ear.

"And you're my type of person too," He said, his hand squeezing my butt hard.

That sneaky bastard! I almost punched him in the face if I hadn't rembered that?I was acting. I gave him a fake smile when all I wanted to do was to squeeze the life out of him.

"You know, I have my car parked outside, we could do sothing quick, " I said suggestively and though there was lust in his eyes, I still sensed caution from him. He was a mafia, so it was normal for him to be careful.

"What do you say?" I added, purposely grinding against him, sending the rest of the doubts flying away.

Jeremy gave in.

He stood to leave and his friends cheered him while ogling with their stares. He wrapped his arm possessively around my waist and began to walk out with .

We went to my car parked in the club's underground garage and I opened the door for him to get into the backseat with an enticing smile.

"We are going to have so much fun together," I promised him as I climbed in after him.

After the car door was closed, A man's agonizing cries of pain were heard almost imdiately while Andrew stood guard outside, watching out for any interruption.
