Billionaire In Love With The Baker

Dinner - 30

Ava's POV

It's been about a week since the day I told him that I loved him, to be honest I really don't know how I said it, but I love him and he loves me too. A lot has happened throughout this week, Carter just been sweeter and kind to me and I'm really happy about that.

He has also taken me out to the beach and dinner, but he still seems a little distant to me like whenever I hug him he'd just stay stiff and never hug me back, and whenever I would ask about that anonymous person he talked to that day he just would change the topic constantly.
I don't know what's going on with him but I don't want to ask him too many questions and make him uncomfortable.

And whenever I would walk past his room I would hear him talking to someone over the phone saying words like 'Don't do anything to her' or 'he's almost out I'm working on it'.

Currently I'm getting ready cause Carter's parents and his sister are coming over for dinner. I'm excited but I'm nervous cause I only met them once and I don't think it was the best impression they got off me by storming out of their house.

I mean me and Carter aren't officially like in a relationship but we did have feelings towards each other. Sighing I hopped out of the shower and wrapped myself around in a fluffy towel and walked out of the bathroom and to the closet.

Noah was ready a while ago for this dinner and I'm guessing he's probably playing around in the living room or something. I scanned my closet and huffed in annoyance. I should have chosen my dress yesterday night cause I'm clearly not good at picking my dress especially on the spot.

A knock on the door got my attention. "Can I come in?" It was Bina's voice. "Yeah." I smiled as she stepped in the room. "What is it? Do you need anything ?" I asked her. "No, sir told me to give this to you, he expects you to wear it." she handed me a black bag with a dress in it.

"Thanks" I thanked her. "Your welcome. I will leave you now to get ready. See you." she grinned and exited the room closing the door behind her. I opened the black bag and held up the dress, once I got a glimpse of the dress I gasped at the beautiful dress I was holding.

I loved it, it was simple which I adored and I looked further into the bag and found a pair of heels. I put on the dress and heels, then I headed to the bathroom and wore a little bit of makeup, lip gloss and eyeshadow. I curled my hair a bit to give it a wavy look.

After I was finished I straightened my dress and glanced at myself in the mirror. I switched on my phone which was lying on the bathroom counter. I had received a lot of calls and messages from Sophie. I didn't speak to her since I saw her and what looked like my cousin, it wasn't my cousin was it? It must be a look alike. I opened the messages and what I saw surprised me.

Sophie- 4 days ago : Ava it's not what it looked like... I wasn't with your cousin.

Huh? I never told her about my cousin or how she disappeared. How did Sophie know unless... that woman was actually my cousin.

Sophie- 2 days ago : Never mind that message... Ava are you there?

Sophie- yesterday : Don't go near him or you'll regret this.

What does she mean I'll regret this? And go near who?

I texted her back.

Me - now : Hey Sophie what do you mean 'you'll regret this'

She was online cause she immediately responded back with a message.

Sophie - now : You'll see tomorrow.
