Perfect disguise by Elizabeth A (best books to read for teens .txt) 📖

Dominic's POV.

I turned towards my car and rapped my fingers on it. I slowly nodded and looked back at her. "Alright, so when are you having this business meeting?"

Unexpectedly, she smiled and crossed her hands. "Very good, now you're talking."

"The meeting is by next Tuesday…  don't worry, I will send all the details to you."

It was then I realized that I haven't collected her digits. I stretched out my hand towards her and she raised a brow in a clueless way. 

"What?"

"Give me your phone, I want to give you my phone number."

"Oh." She said and brought out her iPhone from her handbag. She gave it to me and I typed my phone numbers.

I gave the iPhone back to her. "Call me."

She did so and my phone screen brightened up showing I had an incoming call.  I showed her my phone. "That is my number, you can save it if you want." I said and entered my car. 

I rolled down the car and looked at her. "Alright, see you later."

She nodded. "Alright, I will call you if anything pops up."

I waved at her and drove out of the driveway. The street was less busy so it took me only twelve minutes to arrive at my office. Chloe didn't disturb me throughout that day. 

When I entered my apartment, I saw Kenneth already asleep on the couch. I shook my head and went to cap the opened wine bottle at his side. The room was dim and it was the brightness coming from the television that illuminated the room. It seemed like he was watching a movie on the television before falling asleep. 

I took the remote and switched off the television and kept the wine bottle in the fridge. Immediately, I got into my room, I took off my clothes and went to shower. It was until I had descended into the bathtub that the whole situation drew into my mind. 

I had just agreed to pretend to date one of the richest fashion designers in L.A. At first I was very surprised when she first proposed the deal, I actually thought she was joking just like she did at the salon some days ago. Then she insisted that she was serious and everything just got out of hand the moment she pointed out the idea that she could get rid of Chloe for me. 

I closed my eyes and rested my head on the edge of the tub. I should have taken time to think about it. A lot could still go wrong even if we were pretending.

 What if Annie assumed I was actually in love with Diana.

Gosh, was I making a big mistake?

Diana was quite attractive and held herself in high esteem and has solid principles. Also her eyes were like a magnet. It always drew me closer whenever I stared at it. It seemed like there was an invisible force within it. It shone like gold in the center of sparkling water and her voice was very pleasant. I love hearing her talk. It sounded like a seldom sweet melody to my ears. 

It was a good thing I collected her number, it meant I could hear her voice again before I went to bed.

Once I was done showering, I went back to my bedroom and wore my blue pajamas and slumped on the bed. I picked up my phone and unlocked it. The first thing I saw was the missed call notification from Diana.
