We arrived at 'Le Bernadine' the chauffeur stopped his car at the entrance of the restaurant. "Hazel, put this on before we get in!" Alex said calmly holding a diamond ring in his hands. "Why Alex? You want us to look like 'The Perfect Happy Couple', when we're not" I said sternly.
"Listen, I'm sorry about earlier, now can you wear this and stop talking for once in your life. Please wear the damn ring!" He seemed frustrated, obviously he would be not when I killed him with more than a thousand reasons why he shouldn't beat a woman. And my little threats. "Was that an apology cause it doesn't sound like one!" I said. "Hazel the dinner's started already, you're causing a scene!" He said gritting his teeth.
"So..., Let me see..., Hmmm!" I used my index fingers to tap my chin as if thinking about something important. I love turturing this man so much. "So, you only apologized cause you want me not to cause a scene and go for the dinner peacefully, isn't it right?" I pressed my lips together wore the ring and stepped out of the car. "Hazel!" Alex called, I just didn't want to talk to that person right now, so I ignored.
But before I could go further, Alex held my wrist dragging me to himself, "Hazel, I'm really sorry for touching you earlier!" Alex said, he sounded more sincere this time but I rolled my eyes at his words. "Let me go Alex!" I said nonchalantly. He took a deep breath and exhaled, before letting me go. Just as I was about to move.
"Hello everyone!" Alex called the attention of passerbys on the street. One look they could recognize who it was. "Alex what are you doing, you said you didn't want me to creat a scene now you're doing same!" I said perturbed.
"Shushsss!" He placed his index finger on my lips, "trust me, I know what I'm doing!" He said as he continued his foolish act. "It's Mr Wilson!" They murmured among themselves. "I'm so sorry to disturb your peaceful life my fellow citizens. But I'm really frustrated right now, I really do need help. So I want you all to help me apologise to my beautiful wife here. Earlier on I....!" I smooched his lips before he could say anything further.
It's not the best thing to do at that point but i couldn't think of anything else since Alex decided to ruin his reputation. I pulled out almost immediately and we got into the restaurant quickly with the help of the bodyguards. I still couldn't tell how the press got here quickly, which made me imagine how quick news are to go around the country.
I couldn't believe, I just did what made me slap Alex few hours ago. Neither of us said a word about what just happened as we were even now. "Welcome to 'le Bernadine', Mr &Mrs Wilson!" A waiter approached us breaking us from our awkward state. "Please come with me, your table's right here!" The waiter added gesturing his hands to a direction, and we followed him without a word.
The restaurant was really beautiful, one look and I could tell it's for elite people. I won't be surprised if Alex's family rented the entire place for their dinner tonight. As we got further in my nausea feelings came back. "Are you alright?" It seems Alex noticed, I gave a reassuring smile nodding my head.
The waiter took us to another part of the restaurant, more private and secluded. He opened the only door standing there and we got in. I darted my gaze around quickly trying to study my environment till my gaze fell on the dinner table and the people I saw sitting there almost made me puke.
