The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 336 - Boss's Daughter?!

"I wasn't expecting this out of you, Amaira. Following me?" Ryan's deep husky voice gave a little shake to the lady.

Turning around at a slow rate, she faced him with her undoubted and shocked eyes. "N-No… who told you that?"

"Then may I know what you are actually doing here!? In the same hotel where I and Ellen came?" Ryan had tugged his hands into his pocket yet the dark lining of his eyes never faded.

The same gave a fright to Amaira who could feel her breath halting in the middle already. 'Why is he passing me so many death gazes?'

Not like she is any culprit but surely his words sound like he caught a thief.

Lifting her chin, Amaira opened her mouth, "I came with my friend. Then I saw you and Ellen, so I thought of why not to ask you guys for a lift."

"Lift?" His brows raised in suspicion, to which she vigorously nodded her head. "Yes. I wasn't interested in going in the local taxi. And why do that? When I already know you guys."

"But that doesn't answer how you ended up here? Alone?" Ryan's questionnaires give her the peak of headache.

He was behaving no less than any strict teacher whom she would have to extinguish all queries before proceeding to any further fact.

Taking a deep breath, Amaira's fingers gripped the strap of her bag tightly to stare back into his eyes.

"Why? I can't go out with my friends? Ryan, this place isn't owned by you where I will be banned. I have friends, and I can surely come with them here." Her response raised his guards.

But on the second note, in the back of his mind, he knew that this would be the ultimate truth. 'God.. why will she even come for me? Yes, she won't. How stupid of me to think that…' he surely cursed himself in the back of his mind.

Yet he didn't let his emotions be carried away by his expressions. Coughing lightly, he turned his head in her direction, he asked, "So…you came here alone? I mean without any driver?"

"There was no driver at home. He was on leave and his mother wasn't there so..I just informed the butler about this and came out." Amaira honestly answered, since, in the end, she knew that this man can see the truth through her eyes.

After all, they have spent some time alone before, no matter if things have changed now.

Without moving his gaze from her face, Ryan simply let out a sigh. Bridging his hand near his forehead, he massaged his brows before he turned around to look at the space where other cars came and went.

Noticing him not looking at her but at his back, made her curious. Similarly, her eyes traveled to his back sight, only to see him looking nowhere else but outside the hotel lobby.

"Um…so.. Can you take me home with you?" With the due courage left, Amaira asked with bravery.

"Well….there is a problem … w-"

"RYAN!"

A sweet, girl voice entered into their ears. Subconsciously, they finally turned around to the source of the yell to see a lady standing beside Ellen.

She wore a knee-length dress, with her hair flying in the air. She looked beautiful, with her accent that of abroad. Coming closer to them, she stepped forward to tug her hand near Ryan's biceps to pass him a wide, teeth-filled smile.

"I was looking for you. Where did you go?" the lady asked but Ryan didn't seem to be interested in answering her.

Instead, his eyes saw the hurt and suspicious glint that passed Amaira's eyes before she hid it.

"Am-"

"Hey! Myself Sandra, Ryan's girlfriend. And you?"

The words were no less than any bomb dropped over Amaira where her face grew dark. Immdidlay, she felt her feet getting cold with her body on the verge of falling on the ground. 'Girlfriend? Did he have a girlfriend when he was in university?'

She shouldn't be surprised, after all, he is a handsome man. Obviously, mang ladies will be lined up after him.

But why was this hurting so much in the ribs of hers? Why did she feel the tears on the bay of falling? Biting the inner side of her mouth, she managed to pass her a small smile. "Amaira, Amaira Johnson."

"Oh, that is such a wonderful name. You are the second person I'm meeting here after Ellen, Ryan's friend." With this, her eyes saw Ellen who also walked towards them to stand with his still face. "I'm happy Ryan made me meet his friend except for Javier."

"So..you are also his close friend?" Sandra asked while keeping the same level of excitement, unlike Amaira who wanted to avoid this awkward situation.

Or more likely to say, the situation was awkward only for her because the lady didn't know a single thing.

'Close friend? Haha! You don't know reality, girl.' The mere thought of Ryan not revealing his past to his girlfriend gave her a tinge of sadness. The unhappy feeling lingered around her heart but she somehow managed to cope up with it.

Her mood soured with his grim expressions, as Amaira felt Ryan not avoiding any touch of the lady even by chance.

As her sight got fixed at Ryan who was constantly eyeing her, made her convert her hands into a fist. He wasn't muttering even a single word, only to give her hints that they were the new couple of their group.

"And here I thought he is single…" she mumbled in her breath with the immense hatred and the emotions that flattered her. It was so soft, which was impossible for anyone to hear the exact words. "Sorry..did you say something?"

"N..No.." Amaira shook her head, "We both ar-"

"She is the one for whose family I work. My boss's daughter. Nothing more."
