A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

309 A Special Surprise

The next two days of Ella’s life were filled with joy and happiness due to Denise’s extensive pampering, lots of flowers, and beautiful messages from Leon and the mansion staff’s dotting around her.

Everyone kept treating her like a goddess, ensuring that she never lack anything. It made her feel like she was living in heaven, with angels attending to all her needs.

So, when it finally came to the last day of Denise’s three-day stay at the Villa, Ella suddenly felt the wind of loneliness blowing in her direction.

“I’m going to miss you, mama bear,” Ella pouted as she rested her head on Denise’s thigh, while Denise gently stroked her hair. “I’ve gotten so used to you being around that I’m feeling sad to let you go.”

“Ugh! Don’t feel bad sweetie pie.” Denise cooed like a mother hen. “You know we are going to see each other every day at the office. The only thing is that we won’t be sleeping in the same house any longer. But that wouldn’t stop me from checking up on you every now and then. Tom misses me and I do miss him too. Also, we’ve been planning on fixing a date for our wedding. There’s just so much to do that needs my attention.”

“You don’t need to explain yourself, dear. You’ve gone beyond and overboard just to please me. I’ll be the most ungrateful friend alive if I took advantage of that. Also, I can’t wait to be part of your wedding plans since I didn’t get to experience what it feels like to be properly married.” Ella beamed excitedly.

“Yeah!” Denise’s eyes glimmered as she envisioned walking down the aisle with Tom by her side. “I can’t wait either!”

“Doesn’t it feel awkward for me to think like I’m the one getting married?” Ella sat up and stared at Denise expectantly. “I can feel butterflies in my tummy and a warm feeling in my heart.”

“Nah! It doesn’t feel awkward at all.” Denise giggle. “Leon needs to propose to you properly and give you a befitting marriage for you to feel complete.”

.....

“Well, I don’t think that’s going to happen since I’m already married to the cheater,” A slight frown crossed Ella’s face but quickly disappeared.

“Anyway, I can’t wait to see you stand at that altar and say ‘I do,’ to Tom.” Ella sang, thereby making Denise giggle.

“So, can you guess who is going to be my chief bridesmaid?” Denise winked at Ella.

“Maybe one of your beautiful friends I don’t know about.” Ella shrugged while pulling and wrapping her loose hair around her finger.

“You, silly!” Denise shoved her gently on the shoulder while laughing her heart out.

“Me!” Ella’s eyes widened. “Where have you seen a pregnant woman being made a chief bridesmaid?”

“Well, I think I’ve heard of one or two. But if there were non, then you’re going to break the record as the first beautiful pregnant chief bridesmaid.” Denise playfully pinched Ella’s cheek while doing an excited victory dance.

“Oh Denise, nothing would make me happier than to be your chief bridesmaid but I don’t want to ruin your pictures. You need someone who is sleek, slender, and sexy.”

“Let’s see my checklist for the position of chief bridesmaid.” Denise stood and dramatized her speech. “One and only contestant, Mrs. Ariella Treshvire. Sleek, slender, and having the most adorable baby bump, check. Beautiful and insanely sexy, double check. Might have all the men, aside from my Tom drooling over her, triple-check. What more could a bride ask for? Please...” Denise went down on one knee and stretched her hand towards Ella, “...do me this favor and be my chief bridesmaid.”

Ella cupped her mouth with both hands while beaming.

“Oh, mama bear, how could I ever say no to you? Thank you! I’ll be honored to be your chief bridesmaid.”

“Hurray!” Denise jumped on her feet and hugged Ella warmly.

“Guess who’s going to be Tom’s best man,” Denise whispered into Ella’s ears before releasing her and winking at her.

“I’m feeling sleepy,” Ella pretend to yawn as she rose to her feet.

“Your flower Guy!” Denise tickled Ella’s side making her crack up with laughter.

“Stop, Denise!” Ella giggle while pushing Denise off. “I need to pee!”

Beep!

Beep!!

Ella’s mobile phone buzzed twice and Denise instantly went for it.

“Denise, give me back my phone!” Ella chased after Denise, who seem too energetic for her.

“You think I haven’t noticed the glint in your eyes around this time of the day? First, he sends you flowers and then he sends you kisses over the phone.”

“Ah!” Ella bent down and messaged her tummy as though she was in pain.

“Ella, are you all right?” Demise quickly ran to her side and held her around the waist.

“Yes!” Ella snatched her phone off Denise’s hand and ran up the stairs screaming, “Good night, mama bear,” as she ran along.

Denise beamed as she watched her leave while hoping that Leon would win her heart completely.

Early the next morning, Denise got ready to escort Ella to the airport for her one-week vacation at her sister’s house in Lanwick City.

Before they both left the house, Ella delayed a little bit as she waited patiently for her usual fresh morning roses. However, aside from the sweet wake-up messages from Leon, no flowers were sent.

After waiting for a while she gave up and left the house amid lots of hugs and kisses from the house staff who were already missing her.

When they finally arrived at the airport, Ella was overwhelmed by the reception she received.

Unknown to Ella, her flight which was booked earlier had been canceled by her husband due to his special plans for her.

Alas, immediately she stepped out of her limousine, her bouquet of white roses was handed to her by a pretty flight attendant and she was given a celebrity escort to her brand-new private jet.

“Wow, is this mine?” Ella asked in bewilderment. Her face was flushed with emotions and her eyes shimmered with tears.

“Yes, ma’am. Mr. Treshvire wishes you a safe flight.” The flight attendant smiled politely while guiding Ella into the jet.

“I think your husband just went overboard with this mission of trying to win you back,” Denise whispered into Ella’s ears before letting go of her hands. “Safe trip dear and I’ll see you in one week.”

“Thanks, mama bear,” Ella blew a kiss over to Denise before disappearing into the jet.
