The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Chapter 22_ Happy Cake 2



Mia swallowed hard as kyle came closer to her, she shut her eyes cursing herself mentally for speaking out too loud..

“Big bro.. I..

“Who gave you the permission to tell others about my personal matters?!”

Arya noticed the pain hidden behind his words, she calmly walked into their midst and pushed mia back a little..

“Relax Mr Anderson, she really didn’t mean to..

Kyle snapped his gaze at her immediately “no one asked for your input! and as for you Mia leave now before I do something that I might regret later on!”

Mia sighed and picked up her purse, she embraced Arya once more and whispered softly into his ear..

“I’ll be good Arya”

She pulled away from Arya and slowly walked out of the room..

Arya averted her gaze back to Kyle but the latter was already halfway up the stairs..

“Mr Anderson, can I have a word with you?” she called out but received silence in return..

“He is always moody, he never gives anyone a chance to explain themselves! such a hard man”

.

.

“Arya where are you?” Ray called out clutching onto his bear tightly..

“Honey I’m in here”

Ray followed her voice and appeared at the kitchen’s corridor..

“What are you making Arya?”

“Something tasty”

Arya wiped the back of hand against her forehead which was covered in flour..

Ray pointed to a finger at her forehead and began laughing out loud..

“Arya there’s something on your face”

Arya picked up her phone and stared at the screen.. “Oh naughty little boy, you’re laughing at me right? I’ll show you”

She grabbed a handful of flour and rushed towards Ray with it but to her surprise the little one was faster to dodge her..

“You can’t catch me” He giggled..

“Ma’am please be careful” The cook who was standing at a corner warned..

But Arya was still hell bent on getting to Ray who was way faster than she was, Ray Ran out of the kitchen and she followed suite..

They both ran in circles for a while before Arya suddenly slipped on the marbled flooring…

“Arya watch out!”

Arya closed her eyes ready to brace the impact the fall might have on her..

“wow! just like superman!” Ray exclaimed

Arya slowly opened her eyes when her head crashed on a firm chest rather than the hard marbled floor..

She slowly lifted her head and met Kyle’s burning gaze..

Arya muffled her laughter as she pulled away his arm that was wrapped around her waist..

Kyle had a confused look on his face, he wondered what kind of strange lady she was, laughing for no reason..

Earlier he had gone to Ray’s room in search of him and decided to head down here where he heard their laughter..

For a moment he watched the smile on his son’s face while they were playing around the living room and a part in his heart felt warm seeing him get the motherly affection he never got since he was a baby..

Kyle watched Arya as she laughed out while pointing to his face, he was even more confused when Ray joined her..

“What is going on?”

Arya pulled out her phone from the pink colored apron she was putting on and took quick pictures of Kyle..

Kyle who was initially confused became alert when he saw what she did..

“Daddy there’s flour all over your face and your hair too!” Ray said in between laughs..

Kyle touched his face and stared down at his fingers that were covered with flour..

He turned his head slowly to Arya “You did this on purpose didn’t you?!” He barked out..

“It was an accident Mr Anderson.. I swear I really didn’t mean to do it”

“But you took photos!”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Arya gulped down and flashed a small smile “That’s for the funny aspect”

Kyle stretched his hand towards her “let me have it!”

Arya hid her phone behind her and shook her head in denial, she saw him take a step forward and then another..

“Run Arya!” Ray cheered her and like a gush of wind she docked out of Kyle’s reach..

The servants who were passing by were awestruck by the view in front of them, it’s been a really long while they saw their boss this way..

“Don’t lose to daddy Arya, go faster!”

Kyle got hold of her wrist and pulled her towards him..

A soft gasp escaped her lips when she bumped her head on his firm chest for the second time..

“Hand it over” His voice came out as a breathless whisper which sent jolts to her body system..

Arya involuntarily placed her phone on his palm and swallowed hard as her gaze were fixed on his Adam apple that moved up and down as he spoke.

Kyle returned her phone back to her after he was done with it..”Don’t mess with me this way anymore” He ordered and left the living room..

As soon as his employees saw him approaching they dispersed in all directions..

“That was fun right Arya?”

Arya caught a hold of Ray and wiped the remaining flour on his face..

“Gotcha!”

.

.

Ray sniffed the air in delight, his mouth watered at the sight of the small chocolate cake with a yellow smiley face on it which Arya made..

“Hmm it smells nice and also looks nice and happy”

Arya cut the cake and placed a slice of it on a plate and pushed it to Ray..

“And that’s why it’s called a happy cake.. i make it whenever I’m overjoyed, have a bite and tell me what you think”

Ray picked up his fork and had a bite of it “it’s yummy, I love it! you know Arya, daddy loves chocolate cakes sooo much, I bet he’d be happy to have a slice”

Arya ruffled his hair a bit “Go on have more it’s almost bedtime”

.

.

Arya stood in front of Kyle’s door for some time with the slice of cake on her hand..

She took in a deep breath and knocked on the door, she got no response, she knocked again and still no response..

She turned the knob, pushed opened the door and stepped in..

Arya scanned the room for a while, he was nowhere in sight..

She moved further into the room and placed the plate she was holding on the table..

Her eyes roamed the entire room until it settled on the sketch of an oddly familiar lady..

She tried to figure out where she might have seen her before but shrugged off the thought when she settled her gaze on a sword tucked away behind a shelf..

She smiled in delight and pulled it out, she ran her finger on the name written on it..

“Charlotte” she murmured, that means this sword belongs to Ray’s birth mother..

Arya took a defensive pose with it unaware of the figure who just popped out behind her..

Kyle’s brows drew together, as he watched her movement with the sword..

“What are you doing?!”

Arya’s back stiffened, she swiftly turned towards him and dropped down the sword..

He walked hurriedly towards her and picked the sword from the ground examining it for any possible scratch..

“I’m sorry.. I came here to give you this, you helped me out today and this is my way of saying thank you”

Kyle casted a look at the chocolate piece of cake that sat on the table..

“You done?” he replied in a bored and interested tone..

Arya cleared her throat “I never knew you use the sword, my mum taught me that when I was little”

Kyle pointed to the door which Arya took as her cue to leave..

She flashed a small smile and left the room..

Kyle ran his finger on the sword before he returned it back to it’s original position..

He was about to head to bed when the strong sweet scent of the cake struck his nose..

He settled his gaze on the chocolate cake and gulped down hard..

Kyle stared at the closed door and walked back to the table and picked up the cake..

He took a quick bite out of it after a little contemplation..

The moment it entered his mouth, his heart skipped a beat..

‘How come?’

He took another bite just to be sure, and then another, till the plate was totally empty..

He couldn’t be wrong about this now can he? Arya’s pose with the sword suddenly flashed past his mind..

He sprang up to his feet and picked up his phone from the drawer, he tapped on it for a while and raised it to his ear…

“Tim I want you to do something urgently for me before dawn”
