Chapter 18: Giselle new life
It’s 10 am in the morning and Giselle is still in her bed sleeping. Since that day she has resigned from her work. She doesn’t do anything all day long because all she needs to do is to wait for the day she will be pregnant with Xander Child.
After she gets pregnant, She will be moved to that man’s mansion to continue her pregnancy there. Her life right is what others want to have, not the part that needs to be pregnant to be rich. But the part that she needs to do nothing all day long but her finance is secured.
Giselle slowly opens her eyes as she looks at her closed window curtain. ” It’s too dark here” She muttered as she closed her eyes again. Giselle doesn’t know the time and date right. She is moving according to her own schedule.
It’s nice to do nothing and be lazy.
After an hour her phone suddenly ring, Someone’s calling. Giselle groaned when she heard the ringtone of her phone.
” Who the f*ck is this?” Giselle muttered as she lazily reach her phone in her bed side table and answer the call without looking the caller I. d
” Hello?!” She greeted irritatedly as she lay flat on her bed.
” Be ready later, We will have dinner at a french restaurant. Wear formal dress. And I will pick you at 6pm” Xander said to Giselle and after that he ended the call. Leaving Giselle hanging at the call.
” What a rude” Giselle mumbled before she put back her phone on the bed side table. Giselle slowly opens her eyes and looks at the ceiling of her room. She can’t sleep again, Her body is fully awake now. And she dont know what to do with her time. Giselle is a workaholic person, In this time Giselle is in the Dance workshop. Practicing her dance and after that she will go to the gym to exercise and to maintain her perfect figure.
Even Giselle didn’t admit but she missed her job a little bit. But she can’t drown in that sentiment because the exchange of all these things is a luxury for her. That is just what she has wanted since she was young to live without any thinking about financial matters. And now that thing is on the tip of her fingers.
Giselle slowly sat up and stretched her body. It’s a good day to start with a proper stretching for a good ventilation of blood in the body. After seconds of stretching, Giselle gets out of the bed as she walks outside her room and goes to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. After washing herself, She tied up her hair into a bun because she’s planning to do Yoga.
Giselle doesn’t know how to do Yoga. But there is YouTube that will give her a free tutorial. Fortunately she is a premium member of YouTube. After in the bathroom, Giselle walks back to her room to change her clothes to a sports bra and a pair of sports leggings.
” Let’s go” She privately said to herself as she picked up her Yoga mat and then she walked out of her room.
Giselle picks a spot on her house that is near her sliding door on her balcony. She wants to feel the sunlight while doing Yoga. While preparing the Yoga mat, Giselle heard ringing on her door.
She left out a harsh word as she walked heavily towards her door and opened it.
” You again? Really? ” Giselle said out of annoyance as she opened the door widely.
” Well, I’m just checking the mother of my child” Xander said as Giselle rolled her eyes.
” You mean, You’re checking your incubator” Giselle said in a sarcastic tone that made Xander chuckle.
” Get inside, I still have lots of things to do” She said as she turned back and walked back to her spot for Yoga.
” By the way, why are you here again? Are you afraid that I can’t conceive your baby? ” Giselle asks as she opens her tablet and plays a video about yoga.
” No, I’m sure you are easy to be pregnant” Xander bluntly said as he sat down on the sofa.
” Then, why are you always at my house? It’s getting annoying” Giselle calmly said as she started to copy the Yoga Video.
” It’s only my 3rd time here, Don’t be assuming” Xander bluntly said that makes Giselle secretly roll her eyes.
” Then why are you here? I’m sure that you are not here just to have a chit-chat with me? We are not that close” Giselle said to Xander as she breathed in and breathed out.
” Don’t tell me, You are falling for my beauty? Sorry but I’m not interested in a romantic relationship, ” Giselle continued. Xander just smiled because of what Giselle just said.
” Same to me” Xander boredly said as he leaned on the sofa.
” Then why are you here? I ask many times and yet you do not answer me straightly? Get to the point why you are here? I hate nuisance ” Giselle said as she looked at the back of Xander.
” Are you not curious why I need a child? And why I choose you?” Xander suddenly asks.
” Why? Are you using the child for a ritual or something?” Giselle casually answers, which makes Xander laugh. Giselle doesn’t have any interest in knowing the reason why Xander is doing it. Because first of all he threatened her to get what he wants. And she doesn’t give any sympathy to a man who uses threat and force to get what he wants. Right now, She is just using her misfortune as an advantage for her life.
” Look, You’re holding me in my neck. You know why secret, Then do you think I will give a d*mn thing in your life? F*ck your life alone” Giselle bluntly said as she stopped her yoga and looked at Xander who is now looking at her intently.
” I’m not a dramatic one ” Giselle teasingly said.
Xander feels a sudden thirst because of the way Giselle answered and the way she talks. He suddenly has a feeling that he wants to put this woman in his pocket because in his eyes right now. Giselle is acting cute. He never felt this before to other women because of how his mother brainwashed him but it’s different with Giselle. But Xander is still oblivious to his feelings. He still thinks that it’s just an admiration because of how feisty Giselle is.
” Tell me Ms. Hidalgo, How is your life right now? As a retired exotic dancer?” Xander ask out of nowhere that makes Giselle give her ‘ are you crazy look’
” Why are you suddenly asking that? Geezzz…” Giselle answered out of disbelief.
” No, I’m just checking your routine these days. Kriza said that routine can affect on becoming pregnant” Xander lied. Giselle is still suspicious of Xander because of his sudden question in her life. But she just shrugged her doubts because nothing special happened to her these past few days.
” Well, As you can see I have a f*cking new life. Which contains sleeping, sleeping, eating, watching movies and series, eating and scrolling on the internet and eating again and then sleeping” Giselle answered. Xander just nodded his head and Giselle answered.
” Different from your life before” Xander said that makes Giselle raise her eyebrow.
” Obviously, Yes! Because I don’t need to dance nakedly for the rich b*stard” She said as she started to walk towards her sofa and sat beside Xander. Giselle makes sure that she will not touch Xander because she knows that Xander doesn’t like any Physical contact.
” Do you like to have more money, Giselle?” Xander suddenly muttered that Giselle smiled out of curiosity.
” You don’t need to ask that Xander, Because more money is better” Giselle whispered to his ears that gave him shivered throughout his whole body.
Xander automatically moves a little bit far from her as he tries to calm down because he doesn’t want to panic in front of her. Xander cleared his throat and then he took a deep breath before he talked to Giselle. Xander looks at her, who is now looking at him with a question mark in her face.
” Are you okay? Your face is red” Giselle asks out of heed. Xander just touches his face and he slowly feels itchy throughout his body. Xander closed his eyes as he tried to calm himself and compose himself. He’s trying to control the allergy symptoms by calming himself and putting himself in peace. Xander has been practicing this technique for a while because his therapist told him to practice to have an interaction with women and practice his social skills with them. But he can’t do it with another woman, And that is the reason why he’s practicing it with Giselle by coming into her house and having a casual conversation. He is just preparing himself because he knows that his family. Lorenzo will especially test him for the inheritance.
” I’m okay” Xander answered as he open his eyes and looked at Giselle’s face.
” I’m offering another contract to you Giselle” Xander seriously said.
” What is it?” Giselle seriously ask as he looks at Xander’s eyes intently.
” Marry me”
