"Don't act like a fool Lukas we know Carie punishes you more than Hazel has ever done to me!" Alex said sarcastically. "Yes that is true, Carie is more stubborn!" Ben agreed. "She got this stubborn since she became best friends with Hazel!" Lukas defended.
"What are you implying?" Alex asked with narrowed eyes. "I believe my words were so simple for a child of one to understand!" Lukas said nonchalantly to earn a glare from Alex. Even he could not tell why he was suddenly offended by Lukas's words.
"My Hazel was never stubborn from the start, she was naive and sweet. Still beautiful even if she had that mascara paint on her face!" Alex chuckled inwardly leaving his friends dumbstruck. "She doesn't know how cute she is when she's upset!" His chuckles were louder this time.
"Are you alright Alex?" Lukas asked perturbed. "He's love sick!" Benson mocked and Alex frowned. "What love sickness B....!" They were distracted by the chauffeur that just walked in with ten boxes of pizza. The three Billoniares in the lounge were all elated by the item or food they just saw.
They should have known Alex had other motives bringing them here. They could recall the last time they ate pizza together, which was in high school. They were boys then, now they're men.
As planned each person went for their favorite box, but the chicken was more cause it was Alex's favorite. "When are we leaving?" Ben asked this time, the other two had not noticed how less he spoke son e he got here, unlike the usual Ben. He should be poking or provoking Alex by now.

We arrived at the airport and the chauffeur drove into the jet terminal. We were not using one of Alex's private Jets as all his jets are being prepared to carry the guest from different countries for the wedding ceremony just in few days.
We got out of the black van the guards in convoys who escorted us hurriedly got out of their cars to secure the place as we got into the jet. I used to think Alex was a psycho for having lots of bodyguards, but after his story I understood why. Besides I was getting used it.
We arrived in Dubai by 11pm at night, it was a 10hours flight and we started pretty late. Convoys and and a black Prado already awaited our arrival at the jet terminal. We got into the car exhausted from the long flight, I understood why Carie was not hear with us but I still wished she had nothing to do and would come with us.
I really wanted to tell her, "I told you my dad is a bad person but you keep decieving yourself with the mindset of father's can never hurt their kids". I sighed as we got into the black Prado.
My thoughts were filled with what my father had said earlier and all the threats he made. I stared out the window, the dark clouds didn't reduce the beauty of this city. Dubai was really a different world on its own.
We got into an estate and arrived before a white large mansion. It was really beautiful, at that moment I finally decided not to think about what father said and enjoy my time here. When the wedding is over then I can tell Alex about his plans.
I and mother got out of the car and stroded towards the mansion, "Welcome Madam's!" A butler greeted and mother smiled at him, "Frank you seem in a better condition now!" She said as we got in. "Welcome Madam's!" The maids greeted the moment we got in and mother smiled at them too.
"Thank you!" She seems so simple and different from people in the upper class. This was one of the reasons I loved her, but I still couldn't believe she's not Alex's real mother, yet she loves him so much.
"Please come with us to your room madam!" A maid said finally gaining my attention. "Goodnight mother!" I hugged her then went with them to my supposed room.
I was in awe when I got into my room, the room was massive with a king size bed. I loved every bit of the designs in the room. I quickly got to the bathroom for a nice relaxing warm bath, to relax my tensed muscles. I was so exhausted from the activities of the day and all I wanted to do right now was lay on the big bed and sleep.
I got out of the bathroom with a towel on my waist and into the closet to get changed. At that moment I missed Alex so much. If it was back at home then I wouldn't bother too much, I would just be comfortable in one of his clothes.
I wore a red nighty and got back into the room only to see my phone buzzing non stop. I checked the caller before picking up.
"Baby!"
Hearing his deep voice again made me so happy.
