** Episode-180 you are changing me
Celeste's POV:**
I sat in the car and I am worried, I hope
this ends well...
I got a call from Mr.
Davis, he told me Prince Ernest has something important to do so they are not
coming to the office... that means I will have a peaceful day at work...
After few hours,
Ace asked to
have lunch with him. I agreed, I don't want to say no... like we are getting
friendly, we are friends...
I was eating with
him a small café, I was excited to eat... I feel so good to eat tasty things... Ace
was all cool, he said, "food is pretty good..." I agree with him... I got a call,
it was Steven, he asked, "Celeste..
where are you?... I wonder if you could have lunch with me..."
I said hesitantly,
"I.... am having lunch... in *** café..." he said\, "yes.. I will join... I will be
there.. I am near your office anyways.." before I could say anything he ended
the call...
I looked at Ace and
said, "sorry... but Steven is coming, before I could say anything... he ended the
call... is it ok with you.."
His eyes got darker...
he still smiled and said, "it's fine... I know you don't mean it..." I said, "I am
sorry..."
He continued
eating, he said, "Celeste..." I looked at him, he called me differently... he said,
"you are changing me... I am glad you are..."
He added, "I won't
ask for much... but consider me as a man... not as your bodyguard or friend... I want
to be a man in your eyes..." I was speechless.. does he means he still feels for
me... I looked down... what can I say?
After few minutes,
Steven sat beside Ace and said, "you look pretty..." I tried to smile... Steven
said, "nice to see you good Mr. Ace... I am glad you are protecting my fiancé..."
Ace nodded and
said, "it's my job... and I have personal reasons to protect Celeste... since she
is my friend..." I saw a weird protective expression on Ace's face... Steven nodded
I was about to
speak but Ace said to Steven, "Mr. Steven.. don't force her... she needs time...
these days were not good for her..." I gulped and looked down.. can't I have one
normal meal... one normal meal...
Steven clenched
his jaw and said, "Ace.... You must consider yourself high because my fiancé is
innocent hearted... but you are in no place to speak with me... and I don't need to
get your permission to decide my future with my fiancé.... You are just a lowly
worker..."
I said in anger, "Mr.
Steven... how can you say this?.. just because he works for my dad doesn't mean
he is something less than you... he saved my dad, I respect him and he my friend...
and if workers are no place to talk with you then.. my mother also does a small
job, I also worked as a waitress.. I am also lowly, right?" I hate this
discrimination.. Ace was just looking at
me..
I said to Steven, "you
are acting like Ernest... I thought you were different..." I walked out of the
café... god! I hate this...
