BXBX NOVEL Chapter 819 - Leaving The Resort
~ Golden Ocean Resort ~
8:57 AM
Ellie is getting out of her resort suite, wheeling a suitcase and balancing one large bag on top of it while walking backwards. She regretted for keeping so many things and not leaving them with her assistants.
As she stepped into the hallway, Ellie\'s foot bumped into something and she got startled.
Ellie saw that she bumped into one of the largest bouquets of red roses she ever saw.
She kept her suitcase upright and placed the oversized bag next to it before reaching for the flowers. They look fresh… and there is a card…
There is not much on the card. An address, and time: 2:15 PM
One additional line: \'Wear red shoes, comfortable.\'
Signed: \'Your boyfriend\'
Ellie was not sure what her expression was, but she knew that all the emotions she felt are warm and fuzzy ones.
That line \'your boyfriend\' made her lips form a smile so wide that her face ached.
She is not sure how long she was staring at that card before her phone pulled her out of her daze. The cab driver was calling to remind her that he is waiting outside.
Ellie sighed. Now on top of these bags she needs to carry flowers as well, but she does not mind… her morning started well. If it\'s too much to carry, she can call resort staff member to help her out. After few seconds of balancing and shifting weight, she got everything secured and steady and continued her trip toward the elevators.
On the way down the hallway, her eyes moved toward the door… Jasper\'s room. She wondered if he is inside. Maybe she should knock and check… Ellie stopped herself. The thought of that kiss from last night made her heart race, and she can still feel that rhythmic movement of his thumb lingering at the edge of her jaw. And he tastes so good… Oh, God! She is pretty sure that she blushed.
Ellie reminded herself to keep on moving. She has things to do, and they will see each other in few hours. A date! Ah… 2:15 PM seems so far away…
9:49 AM
Kyra is on the terrace of the restaurant on the fourth floor of them main building of Golden Ocean Resort. She is having breakfast with her mother.
It\'s a silent activity, since her mother discourages talking while eating. Kyra does not mind. It gives her time to think.
She called Melodie this morning, and she answered the call saying that she is already heading back home. Her parents found out about the barking incident at the shooting range and it seems that she will be grounded for at least a month. Kyra shook her head in disbelief, just how old is Melodie to be grounded by her parents? Spineless woman!
Tiffany is nowhere to be found since previous day. Maybe the incident in the Dark Prince club shook her up so much that she could not attend the wedding. But Kyra can swear that she saw Tiffany at the reception, at least at the beginning… but by dinner time she was definitely gone. Kyra snorted… yeah, right. Traumatized by some random drunk man pleasuring her… she didn\'t look traumatized at all while it was happening. Kyra even zoomed in that security footage, and she didn\'t miss Tiffany\'s blissful expression.
Harriet is not answering her phone. What is with her? She also disappeared from the reception.
Kyra could not help but wonder, what is going on? Are girls giving up on Jeffrey just because he got married? Hmph… weaklings! That is a good thing… less competition for her, if those airheads can even be called competition.
Now… what happened with Madison? After Liam pointed out where Madison is, Aiden got inside and shortly after that she saw Madison rush out of ladies\' room while holding her face. Did she get a slap or two from Sarah, or maybe from Aiden since he was inside that restroom as well? Kyra wanted to talk to Madison and to find out the details, but Madison was missing for part of the evening after that restroom incident and next thing Kyra saw is that Madison was sticking to Liam. And also, Kyra does not want her mother to see her with Madison because they don\'t consider that Madison is respectable enough to be associated with them. Kyra exhaled… she will need to be patient. In few days she can meet with Madison and find out what happened. Or maybe she can reach out to Liam since he obviously had some plans which involved Madison.
But all those are pawns… her biggest concern is the new player: Mrs. Jeffrey White.
That woman has something Kyra didn\'t anticipate. Brain. From the small interaction they had in the event hall and then at the shooting range, Kyra can see that JoAnna is not an easy opponent. She perfectly performed a role of an ignorant girl only to wipe the floor with Melodie. Kyra must admire that. It was flawlessly executed. To get a young snobby lady like Melodie on all four barking… Kyra needs to admit that it was entertaining. But she should also be concerned about the fact that Jeffrey White is absolutely smitten with JoAnna. That ice-block was looking at his bride with fire in his eyes. He kissed her every chance he got, he sang to her, and they danced more than once. Ah, a perfect husband. Looks, money, status, power, and… passion. Kyra reminded herself to stop admiring that woman and to focus on getting that man for herself. He is remarkable, and he needs to be hers!
From what Kyra saw, JoAnna will not go down without a fight. So it\'s not enough only to seduce Jeffrey. She needs to get JoAnna out of the way as well. First thing first: information gathering. Jeffrey had JoAnna and their relationship well hidden, but not anymore. Now everyone knows who Mrs. Jeffrey White is, and it will be easy for Kyra to dig out the information on that woman. She will find out everything about JoAnna, get close to her, and get her out of the way.
"Kyra, dear… why are you not eating?", Kyra\'s mother pulled her out of her thoughts.
Without thinking, Kyra bit a big chunk of her toast.
Her mother frowned. "Smaller bites. How old are you? So unladylike…" She shook her head in disapproval. "After breakfast we should finish packing and leave the resort."
Kyra nodded before taking a sip of orange juice to wash down the toast.
