The Bride Of The Billionaire

Chapter 12: Heartbeat

♪♪Hold my hand, baby don't be scared...♪♪

I felt tightened inside my chest!

Because... I'm holding someones hand, someone that I may lose sooner or later. There's Sabrina right? I'm supposed to be happy but I can't even fake a smile.

"Chump? which one of these do you like?" he's pertaining to a painting so I look at it. We're at the art exhibition right now, at least I have fun since I stay at his side and I myself love art and an artist.

"You suddenly shut in silence, why?" he asked then he let go my hand. I was startled when the back of his palm touched my forehead, he's trying to check my temperature?

"Raze, I'm not sick!" That action made me laugh somehow.

"I see, so, this one or this one?" he asked again.

"Hmmm! both has a good quality and has a right proportion but I like this one more" I pointed the Galaxy that the night view where there's a moon, mountains and fine tree.

That's simple but the colors were combined perfectly.

"I'll take them then" he said.

"You made me choose but you end up buying all, aren't you crazy?"

"Crazy because of you, yieeee!" he said mocking my lines earlier with his stern face that made me chuckle. He's crazy.

"That's my line dude!" I laugh then he give me his deadly stare again.

"Why?"

"Did you just call me dude?"  ah! he was mad just because of that?

"What do you want me to call you? Sweetheart?" I tease while trying to make my face look serious.

"Crazy!"

"Ouch! why did you fillip my forehead? I hate you!" 

"I heart you!" then he pull me closer and kissed my forehead, the part that he flip.

"That's my language of admiring someone" he said and wink.

"Corny!"

"but look at your smile, that's pretty wide" he fired back, I don't know but I laughed after that.

He buy the arts and also the first paintings we saw earlier and all of that worth 1.2 million. I can't just believe that he will spend for that though it's pretty awesome to display. Well, he's a billionaire so he can do all that he want.

"Sir, since you buy those masterpiece of Mr. Jaxx, he offer you a free portrait. He'll be here maybe after 5 minutes."

"Sure" Raze replied.

That Jaxx made me in awkward position in this studio.

I was that close to Raze, my hands were on his chest like checking his heartbeat while looking at the front and Raze's left hand was on my hips and the right was around my shoulders and like me he was looking at Jaxx who's doing a portrait at his huge pad.

I can feel Raze natural heartbeat and his breath but I hope  he can't feel the beat of my heart because that's embarrassing. It was like a rapid hitting the bass drum... and... he was my drummer, my heart was his drum but unfortunately, he doesn't know about it.

"Perfect! Here, you guys look at this!" I let go as I hear Jaxx, I take a deep breath! Finally, I can calm myself.

"Wow! This one is perfect!" Raze proudly praise his new masterpiece while I silently honor Jaxx's lovely work.

"Thanks! This will be delivered together with the 3 artworks you bought Mr. Coleman. Thanks for buying my artworks and for appreciation. " Jaxx said then they shook each others hand.

"I'll wait for the delivery"

"Sure thing, just message me if you want another portrait!" Jaxx laugh while saying that, he's cool and there's something deep inside me that wants to know him more. I'm curious about his personality.

I'm his fan from now on.

"If it's with her again, we'll go now!" Why Raze always say things that can make my heart go crazy so casual? I hate it!

Is he dumb or something?

Around 11:00am we arrived at the bank. Yes! he want me to open an account which is a good idea.

Things went smooth and now we're heading at Texno, the dream, my dream to be specific.

On the way, I'm communicating with mom and Stacey about my achievements and they're glad about it too.

"Good morning Mr. Coleman"

"Good morning Sir"

"Good morning Mr. CEO"

Everyone greeted him formally yet some other girls have some thrills on their faces like they were happy seeing their boss.

I knew everyone would be blessed having a handsome boss and a kind one.

"Good morning" he respond but he's not smiling, he's a damn serious and in his stern face. I found that cool though.

"Elizabeth, where's Tyron?" he asked the lady at the elevator.

"He's currently orienting the winners yesterday at room 5 sir" she formally address.

We arrived at 23rd floor. This one might be his office.

His office was extra huge, there's a lot of books, it was high and I can see the view outside the glass wall and it's pretty terrifying that made me step backward.

I look around, that's a single painting at the wall, it's an abstract painting to be more precise.

There's a glass table at the side near the sofa read two more single sitter and behind that was a top line range created from a sophisticated man-made material which has the translucent quality of glass, only few books and vases was placed there.

"Hey! Chump! Have a seat!" he gesture and sit at his swiveling chair.

I did sit comfortably at the couch and lean because I was that little tired.
