BXBX NOVEL Chapter 106
After taking a warm shower, and relaxing for a while, Ella placed a call to Denise.
“Hi, sweetie!” Denise picked up on the first ring.
“Hello, my sweet mama bear.” Ella’s broad smile was heavenly. “How are you this beautiful morning? I hope everything in the office is running smoothly?”
“I’m doing great, darling. Also, everything is fine over here. We just miss our celebrity CEO. I hope you’ll be coming around tomorrow?”
“Wow! Am I really a celebrity CEO?” Ella’s animated voice couldn’t hide her enthusiasm. “Anyway, I’ll be in the office tomorrow if that makes you guys happy?”
“Yah! We can’t wait to have you around. So, how was your special dinner celebration? Is that the real reason for not coming around like a promise today? Are you having a fun overload hangover?”
Ella chuckled before replying: “maybe I am. The dinner was fantastic. Leon spared no expense in making it a memorable night for me. So, I guess the excessive love and attention got me exhausted.”
“You guess?” Denise chuckled mischievously. Mr. Leon the lover boy has successfully molded and remolded your body. So why wouldn’t you be exhausted? If I were in your shoes, I would remain in bed for a week without lifting a muscle. Every morning and night, I will request a special massage from him.”
.....
“Hahaha!” Ella’s eyes were watery from excessive laughter. “You are such a naughty gal, Denise.”
“I’m just stating the obvious. Your Leon is amazing at pampering you. After all, you did confess that it was an excessive or maybe an overdose of good loving.”
“Yeah, I did say that!” Ella wiped the tears from her eyes with her finger. “Sometimes, I feel the pampering is too much, but what can I do, I just have to enjoy it.”
“Sure! You deserve all the love in this world.”
“Aww... Thanks, sweetie. How about your outdoor dinner with Tom, I trust it was as romantic as mine.” Ella’s body sizzled when her mind momentarily drifted to the amazing dinner she had with Leon and what took place after the dinner.
“It was awesome! Tom is a sweetheart! Guess what?” Denise’s tone was filled with excitement.
“You know I’m terrible at guessing. So just spill the beans already,” Ella’s eyes brightened with enthusiasm.
“Tom is taking me to his parent’s house for a family thanksgiving this weekend,” Denise said happily.
“Yeepee yah!” Ella threw one hand in the air, beaming with joy. “I’m so happy for you, Denise. I can’t wait for you and Tom to tie the knot.”
“Hey, slow down!” Denise giggled. “I said family thanksgiving, not an engagement party. Remember, we have to wait for five months before Tom proposes, and so far, we are less done a month old in this relationship.”
“Hmm...” Ella narrowed her eyes as she thought deeply. You know, you can’t predict the future when two people are madly in love with one another. Take Leon and I, for example, we started on a contract marriage ground. However, our love for each other grew overnight, and right now we are considering making our love story permanent.
“Yeah, You’re right Ella! I just hope Tom is the real one this time. I truly care about him. My heart won’t survive a heartbreak if he decides to do something crazy.
“He won’t, just think positive and every other things will go smoothly.”
“Now, it’s your turn to take a wild guess about two things that made my morning thrilling,” Ella’s eyes twinkle as she spoke.
“Two things? Wow, lucky you! Let’s see! Breakfast in bed is nothing new to you, and receiving gifts is an everyday thing from Leon. Hmm...”
“Keep going on the gift part! You’re almost there!” Ella’s eyes sparkled even more at Denise’s smartness. She nibbled on her fingers in anticipation.
“A gift, huh! This is going to be difficult because Leon is good at lavishing so many gifts on you. It can’t be pieces of jewelry or other accessories because those are normal things in Leon’s world. Nevertheless, I just take four wild guesses and I’ll give up.
“Okay!” Ella smiled animatedly.
“A new exotic car?
“No!”
“Hmm... Okay, your own private jet.
“Hahaha! Nope!” Ella giggled
“How about a new luxurious home?
“No, no no!”
“I can see you’re having fun at my expense right? Denise quizzed animatedly
“Yes!” Ella burst out laughing
“Okay I think I’ll get it this time and if I don’t, I’ll give up. It can’t be a company in your name because you already have one. So, is it an island named after you?” Denise giggled at her last guess.
“An island! Oh, Denise, you going to crack my ribs with laughter.” Ella couldn’t stop herself from laughing until she started choking with a cough.
“Alright, I gave it my best shot! Now, please tell me before I die of the suspense.”
“Okay!” Ella sniffed and wiped her eyes with the back of her hands again due to her excessive laughter. “A pair of a golden guns.”
“Huh? Did I hear you correctly? Did you say golden sun or golden gun?” Dennis asked quizzically in surprise.
“A gun as in G-U-N!” Ella said.
“Wow! A gun!” Denise’s voice was slightly raised. “Ella, I do not know what to say. Oh my goodness! Your husband is full of surprises.”
“I know, right?” Ella’s eyes beamed.
“I wouldn’t have guessed that if you gave me ten hours. Such a beautiful gift! I can’t wait to see it. You know it will be great to test that weapon on you know who.”
“You are just too forward, Denise!”
“Oh my goodness! No! Don’t tell me you’ve already done that! Have you?” Dennis asked excitedly.
“You bet, I have. I shot him twice; one on his thigh and the other on his shoulder.” Ella said proudly.
“Oh my gosh! I wish I was there to witness it. I would have even given him an extra shot, a few inches below his balls. Frost does not deserve to live after what he did to us.”
