Oliver chuckled, then returned her hug.
“God!!! I missed this so much. I missed you. I missed inhaling your scent.” She said with her eyes closed.
“I wish I could kidnap you.” She mumbled; her eyes still closed.
Oliver chuckled.
Beatrice smiled, loving the vibration his upper body made against her head on his chest while he chuckled.
“What’s stopping you?”
The duo were silent for almost a minute.
She finally raised her head from his chest, looking into his eyes. “How long do you plan on staying with me?”
“I should return tomorrow. After the wedding.”
Beatrice shook her head.
“You’re getting married and I’m sure you will be leaving for your honeymoon after the reception. So I have no business here.”
“I’m not leaving for my honeymoon tomorrow.”
“What do you mean?” Ollie looked at her, confused. If there was anything he was well aware of, It was the fact that Beatrice was a fan of good and soft life as well as luxurious items. And going on vacations was one of her favorite things to do.
“My husband is busy with work so we would be going on our honeymoon on Friday instead of tomorrow.”
“That’s still no convincing reason for me to stay back.”
“You’ll be married in a few hours and I’m sure your husband wouldn’t appreciate you being around any man.”
“Andre is chilled. And you seem disciplined. I’m sure he wouldn’t have any problem with that.”
“Tonight won’t be enough for us to catch up since we have so many things to talk about. Besides, I don’t know when we're gonna see each other again so I feel this is the right time to show you around, explore and have fun with you.”
Oliver didn’t give any reply.
“Say Yes!” She pouted, staring at him with pleading eyes.”
“I’ve got things to do back in Australia.”
“Don’t be a boring boy! Your father said all you do is work your ass off in the office and I want to show you that I can be a good host. So please say Yes.”
Oliver sighed.
“I’ll think about it. But I’m not promising anything.”
Beatrice smiled. Oliver could hardly refuse her when they still used to live together. She was glad she still had the same effect on him.
“Let’s go have dinner. I don’t want the food to get cold.” She said, stealing a kiss from him. A kiss on the cheek before pulling away from the hug.
“You might want to wear something. It’s pretty cold outside.”
“Of course. The last thing I want is for you to be drooling over me instead of enjoying your meal.
Beatrice internally rolled her eyes at him.
Ollie left where she was by the door, went to where his luggage was and took out a gray shirt.
Bea strolled into the room to see how well he was settling in.
“Since you’re here. You might as well get your gift now.”
Ollie took out a wrapped package and an envelope from his box.
“Charles sincerely sends his regards.” He said as he handed her the gift.
Beatrice smiled, feeling butterflies in her stomach. One of the things she missed about Charles Gusto was that he was very good at spoiling her with material stuff. And she knew this gift would do no exemption in blowing her mind away.
She collected the gifts from Oliver, Settled on the edge of his bed and unwrapped them.
She started with the envelope. Her smile got bigger when she saw what was in there. A cheque of one million dollars in her name. Putting the gorgeous cheque back into the envelope, She started to unbox the wrapped gift. It turned out to be a jewelry box just as she predicted. Beatrice opened it and came face to face with a complete jewelry set. A necklace, pair of earrings, hand and leg chain. All were made of pure gold.
“This is just him being biased if you ask me,” Oliver said when he saw his ex-stepmother looking at the jewelry with nothing but admiration in her eyes.
“What do you mean?” She asked, not taking her eyes away from the beauty.
“Isn’t it supposed to be a wedding gift? I see him as someone who’s trying to win your heart again.”
“Stop playing around. I’m sure Charles has moved on. All of this is just out of respect.”
