HIS HEARTTHROB, HER HEARTBEAT

Written by: Pamela James

Chapter 4

FREDRICK

” Sorry ma’am I can’t do anything.” Andrew said in a polite manner.

“What? Why?. I thought this place was for people of caliber?” She flared in anger.

“Oh, he cant do anything because I am the owner of this restaurant” This time I spoke folding my arms on my chest.

Her reaction was a sight to see!

She doesnt look like she believed me at first then she looked at me from my head to toe and her face colour turned pale.

“Just pay and leave!I don’t bear such behaviour at my place with my staff.” I said in an authoritative tone and surprisingly she didn’t say anything and started opening her bag.

“Everyone please get back to your food” Andrew clapped his hands and everything got back to normal.

The waiter was actually taking Aaron and Michael’s drinks so he left to get them new ones.

I was now standing with her alone.

She was continuously searching something in her bag.

She looked at me from the corner of her eyes and I could see the embarrassment on her face.

May be she is one of those ladies in town who parade in an empty bag and look for rich dude to sort them out.

I smirked at my own thought.

Crap!

I forgot my card at home.

I took my phone and called Nathan.

He picked on 3 rings.

📞”Hello Nathan, actually I.. ”

📞” I am so sorry Ivy. I am busy right now. I promise to make it up to you anotger day. Please just go back” With that said he disconnected the call without even hearing what I wanted to tell him.

I looked at that muscular man who was the owner of the restaurant and found him smirking.

“Jerk”

I murmured under my breath dialling my mother’s number.

📞”Hello mom….”

📞”Ivy I have told you numerous times yo not call me during office hours. What is so important that you can’t wait for me to get home so we can discuss about it huh? I am very busy so don’t disturb me.”
She said and disconnected the call.

Tears were threatening to come out of my eyes but I blinked them back.

I dialled dad’s number but he didn’t bother to pick up the call and declined it.

After trying everything when I get nothing I turned towards the man.

“I..i.. forgot my card at home” I said biting my lower lip.

He looked at me with scrutinizing gaze.

“Sorry?” He said dramatically lowering down his face to my level.

“I don’t have money.” I said little louder.

“Aren’t you Miss riche rich Ivy Miguel anymore??” He teased me while smirking.

I kept quite.

“What do I have to do to go back home?”
I said in low voice.

“Well nothing much but you have to wash the dishes” He said casually and my jaw dropped to ground.

“What??” I shouted in disbelief.

” lower your voice and yes, wash the dishes and go back to your house or else you will have to stay here overnight but still you can’t go without paying for your food.”

“How much is my bill?”

“10000!”

” What?” I said in disbelief and he nodded seriously this time.

10 thousand dollars is not a big amount to me but even after putting my bag upside down, I can’t find more than 30 dollars.

Oh my gee!

What will I do now?

I can’t wash dishes!!

Never!

IVY

An idea popped into my mind and I gave it a nod.

“Can..can you take my bag instead of money? Please? It an expensive bag, it worth millions of dollars ” I said and he looked at me in amusement.

“Your bag? Are you sure??”

“Yes you can keep it. I will come back for it and pay you your money but please let me go. I can’t wash dishes. I have never in my life ever done this. Please!!” I literally begged him.

“Hmm!! Okay!!” After thinking for a while, he finally agreed.

“Thank you so much.”

“But only on one condition”

” condition?”

“Yes, just one condition. ”

“What condition?”

“You have to say apologize.”

“Apologize?” I gave him a confused look.

“The waiter who mistakenly poured you a drink and still apologized yet you bath him with insults”

“No. I won’t apologize” I said.

“Then rot here or do the dishes” He said sternly taking one step towards me making me flinch.

He had a dominating aura around him in which I couldn’t even breath freely.

I wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

“Okay.. I will say..sorry!!”

“Simeon!” He shouted without even averting his gaze from my face.

” Yes Sir!!” That waiter came running towards us.

“This madam wants to say something to you.” He said still looking at me.

“I..am.. I am sorry Simeon? I should not have shouted on you.” Isaid nervously.

Never in a million years have I ever said sorry to anyone.

Neither has anyone dared to mess with me but this man had the nerves!

“Its okay ma’am, I am sorry too. I should have been alert.”
The waiter smiled and left.

I was stunned for a moment at his words.

How easily he can forgive someone who insulted him in front of others.

“Remember one thing, They are poor that doesn’t mean that they don’t have self respect. Next time before insulting someone in a crowd think about your fake reputation because the one who can hear, can speak too” He gritted teeth at me and marched towards counter.

I quickly took my phone and my essentials from my bag and headed towards counter.

He was standing there with his back facing me.

I put my bag on counter and started walking towards main gate when my steps halted at someone’s voice.

“Well boss that girl is indeed beautiful”

___FREDRICK___

After having food and chatting for sometime Michael and Aaron left

“Well boss that girl is indeed beautiful”

I was checking recipe book when Lucas, the counter boy said.

I raised brow at him.

“Sorry sir” He raised his hands in surrender.

I was never one of those men who take their workers as their slaves and this was a reason why all my employees respect me and love me.

I sighed.

“I don’t get attracted towards the caked faces and empty skulls. These people have nothing to offer”

I said and looked up towards Lucas and saw a strange look on his face.

He was looking in a random direction.

I followed his gaze and my eyes landed on that girl.

She was looking at us in disbelief and…teary eyes.

No!!

These b!tches like her don’t cry.

All they know is how to insult others.

These are just crocodile tears.

I thought and averted my gaze.

What if those tears are real?

My subconscious said.

“Then I don’t care”
I murmured and went towards the main door from where she left while ago.

Chapter 6

__IVY__

I came back home frustrated and tired after walking for almost fifty minutes.

I thought that Nathan will drop me back homr and that’s why I sent my driver back but Nathan left me.

I couldn’t even find a cab to take me home.

I ran to my room.

The maids were cleaning my room.

“Get out” I said as soon as I enter in my room.

They looked at me confused because they knew I can’t bear untidiness but this time I am more than frustrated to be a tidy person.

“Are you all deaf? Didn’t you heard what I said? I said get out this instant.” I shouted pointing towards door.

They quickly ran out.

I locked the door and layed on the bed.

Tears started welling up in my eyes.

I have never being this embarrased in my wh0le life.

The disgrace was too much.

I had no one to share my pain.

No mom, no dad, no friends and now neither Nathan.

I am in this state today because of him.

If he had not left me then I won’t be facing all of this.

With heavy heart I went towards the washroom thinking that maybe a long and soothing shower can help.

After taking shower I layed on the bed clenching my pillow closed to my chest.

Tears started wetting my face.

Suddenly I remembered simeon smile when I apologized to him and instead of him insulting me back , he talked to me politely and even took the wh0le blame on himself.

“Why can’t I be like this? Smiling genuinely ?” I asked to myself in a shaky voice.

I have always been the one who misbehave with everyone due to satisfaction of my ego.

But do I truly get satisfied after insulting others?

And here on this question Ivy Miguel stops everytime.

I stood up and stood in front of mirror.

“I don’t have anyone to share my feelings. Am I that bad that no one wants me?”I questioned myself again looking at my reflection.

“Why? Why does it has to be always me who gets alone at the end of the day?? I may be rude but this is what I learnt from my parents. Isn’t so?? Whenever asked my mom to help me with my homework she always to ignore me. Whenever I asked dad to attend my school meetings he always scold me that I am disturbing him. This is what they taught me. I am acting upon their given advices and keeping their given attitude then why I end up being alone when they all have millions of people with them? Why do I feel depressed when they smile all day? Why are my days dark while theirs are sparkling? Why?” I cried loudly throwing things from the dresser all around in room.

“No one wants me. No one wants Ivy!” I whispered tiredly opening the drawer of dresser and picked a bottle from there.

‘Sertraline’ Was written on it with bold letters.

“Only I want you and you want me. How can I live without you” I question looking at my antidepressant pills.

I opened it and saw only 3 tables there.

“Very bad now I have to go and buy you again.”

I poured and gupled the wh0le 3 tablets with water in one breath.

My head started pinning.

I threw bottle aside and fell on closing my eyes.

“I don’t get attracted by caked face and empty brains” I remembered his words.

“Stupid stranger. ” I muttered before I dozed off.
