Besotted novel Chapter 8

Yes, I do agree upon that. I am a bitch.

************************************

Sitting continuously for an hour is quite a tiring thing, I must say especially for someone who can't sit still like me. The speeches were really boring but you can't do anything to avoid it.

Finally, when the show was over it was time for the guests to interact with each other. I stood up from my chair and followed Mr. Theller wherever he went.

"Sir I'm hungry" I whispered to him and he nodded towards the food counter. I excused myself and went towards the counter to eat the starter.

"Get me something to drink" I told the waiter and he gave me a fruit juice which I gulped down feeling satisfied.

"Hi beautiful" I heard some one speaking behind me and I rolled my eyes.

Oh dear God! Not again.

Nevertheless I turned around and gave a smile to the man who was wearing a royal blue Armani suite and had blonde hair. He was actually quite a handsome man with his Brown eyes which twinkled every time he smiled, but he wasn't Mr Theller. There was something about him that makes every girl want to fall on their feet. He is a walking sex god but I made an oath to myself to not let his sexiness get to me. I can not stoop that low and become his fan girls. I am way more than that.

"Hello!" I found myself replying.

"I'm Jared Smith Nice to meet you" he told me as he reached his hand for me to take.

Shyly, I gave him my hand and he kissed it making me blush. He smiled at me and winked at me causing me to turn even redder.

"Uh I'm Sangavi Carter" I told him as I withdrew my hand.

"Pretty name for a Pretty lady" he spoke smiling brightly making me smile.

"Thank you" I muttered.

"So What is a beautiful lady like you doing here and that to alone?" He asked as he took a drink from the waiter and sipped on it.

"No I'm not alone I am here with Mr. Caleb Theller" I told him and he raised his eyebrow.

"Caleb? Well he is my friend. I didn't know he had a companion" he questioned looking amused now.

"If only you knew" I thought to myself.

"Sorry? Did you say something?" He asked confused and I shook my head No. OMG! did I say that out loud? I thought as I stared at the handsome man before me.

"So why are you alone now?" He asked again and I was just about to reply but stopped when I heard a dominating voice speak behind me.

"She is not alone Jared. She is with me" Caleb spoke as he took a sip from his glass and stood beside me with a neutral expression.

"She came here alone to eat something" he spoke and took another sip. He looked calm but his clenched fist and the sexy throbbing vein in his neck said otherwise. Why the hell is he pissed? Well as long as it is not aimed at me, I didn't give a damn.

"Hey! Caleb! How are you man? It's been a long time" Jared spoke excited as he came forward to hug him and they did the man hug.

"You saw me last month Jared" Caleb spoke as he gave him an amused look.

"Oh Right! I forgot" Jared spoke as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Anyways you didn't tell me that you are in a relationship" Jared asked as he eyed me and raised his eyebrows.

"There it goes again" I muttered under my breath but as if Caleb heard me he elbowed my arm making me blush.

"I got into it recently" he lied and I looked up to him, confused by his answer.

I thought Jared was his friend. What is the need to lie to him about our relationship?

"Wow you got a beautiful lady there" Jared complemented and I blushed even more.

I think I am here in this party only to blush.

"Thank You" Caleb replied as he wrapped his arm possessively around my waist, catching me off guard. He gave a light squeeze there which made me gasp. Jared's eyes landed on me as he raised his eyebrows in question.

"Uh I want to drink water" I covered up and he nodded. I took a glass of water from the counter and unwillingly gulped it down.

"So how is your business going?" Jared asked and I mentally rolled my eyes. Always the business talk.

"It's great when your girlfriend is working with you as your Personal Secretary" Caleb spoke out of nowhere making me choke on my breath.

"What the?" I thought to myself and mentally glared at him but in reality gave him a fake smile. He had a mischievous smirk plastered on his face and his eyes twinkled like an excited little child. It made him look ravishing. I forced myself to take my mind out of the gutter. This is only for the public. He ain't your type and will never fall for you, plus you hate him. He is an egotistical player and you don't need that in your life. I repeated my mantra inside my head, hoping to take my mind of him.

Caleb squeezed my waist again making my eyes widen. What is his problem?

I placed my hand on his and slyly tried to get his hand off me but he was too stubborn and refused to let go. His touch sent tingles along my body and I didn't like the way my body is reacting. I hated it but my body loves it. I felt safe and I really didn't like this feeling. This was a new feeling to me and im scared it will be the death of me.

"Ugh what is his problem?" I thought to myself and scowled mentally.

"Uh I need to use the bathroom" I spoke out of the blue.

Jared nodded and finally Caleb decided to let me go. I moved past Jared but looked back at Caleb and smirked, letting him know that I won. He raised his eyebrow and gave me an amused look to which I rolled my eyes and turned around going towards the bathroom.

I asked a waiter for direction and I reached the bathroom. I needed to pee urgently. When I was done I washed my hand and was just wiping it using a tissue when two blondes walked in.

"Did you see Caleb today?" One of them chirped and Caleb's name got me attentive.

"He is looking so handsome and sexy. I could take it right now." another one chirped.

"Yeah! I would've hit on him tonight but I heard that he has a girlfriend" the one who was wearing a golden dress spoke as she did a fake sad expression. God I already hated her. What can you do. A whore will always be a fucking whore.

"Girlfriend?" the one who was wearing a pink dress scoffed "He must be screwing her and that's it. He probably brought her here because of the Event".

This made my blood boil.
