Actress and The C.E.O (Part 1)

"Elle is your...?" Roman asked.

'Please don't be her girlfriend', Roman chanted in his head.

"My Saint Bernard," Ekaashi told him.

"So you are an introvert and a dog person. Nice," He commented with a smile. Thank Dios, no girlfriends.

"Staying at home doesn't mean you are an introvert," Ekaashi argued.

"It actually means that," Roman pointed out.

"No, it doesn't. It means that I like my house very much," Ekaashi defended herself.

"No it means that you don't like going out of your comfort zone," Roman stated.

"I don't get it how you can say that without knowing me at all," Ekaashi huffed and crossed her arms over her chest.

"I can say that because you said so yourself. When a person likes to keep to themselves, not go out and interact with other people, they are called an introvert. It's not a bad thing. It means you trust only a few, and it is a good thing most of the time," Roman pointed out.

"Oh," Ekaashi turned away her face towards the closed window, but Roman could see her blush.

She was adorable in a beautiful way.

"I never had a dog though," Roman told her.

"Never?" Ekaashi looked shocked.

"Nah. Our family was too busy for a pet. Though we had a few fish when we grew up, nothing since they all died," Roman told her.

"Seriously? No one is ever busy for a dog. They are the cutest things ever!" Ekaashi's mood lightened as she exclaimed.

"I'm sure. Reyanna has 3 now! Even Rylen got a pup last month," Roman told her.

"Your sisters?" She asked.

"Yeah. We are triplets. Reyanna is married, Rylen lives with her fiancé," He informed her.

"How old are you guys?" She asked.

"25," Roman said casually.

"Married at 25? I can't even think of marriage and I am 30!" Ekaashi exclaimed.

"Same. Reya married at 22. I mean you will get married too if the Duke of Devonshire falls in love with you," Roman told her shaking his head.

When Reyanna told the family about the Duke, everyone was surprised, more like shocked, except for Grammy and Grand Pappy. But then their parents agreed without a problem. Nobody understood how Reyanna suddenly loved the cold and the sophisticated, but Roman and Rylen knew not to doubt her. They knew Hayden would be good to their sister.

"A Duke? Oh my god! Your sister is a Duchess...wait a minute! I've met her!" Ekaashi exclaimed. Roman was surprised again.

"You have?" He asked.

"Yes! At the Wimbledon, I knew her as Duchess Reyanna Lennox. She is absolutely stunning. I follow her everywhere on social media," Ekaashi gushed.

"Oh okay. She doesn't understand sports though. Hayden must have a hard time explaining her stuff," Roman chuckled.

It took Rylen and him ages to make Reyanna understand what football actually is. She would come to Rylen's games, cheer her, but was clueless why everyone was running after a ball.

"That's rude! Tell me about your other sister," She asked.

"Rylen is an international football star along with her fiancé, Enrique," Roman told her.
