Chapter 11 - CHAPTER 11

Apologize" She cut him off again.

Kyros stared at her and moved away a little from her, Diora rolled her eyes. She wasn't actually expecting him to say it, she only tried.

"I'm sorry"

Diora blinks three times and gives him a shocking look, Wait, did he just...

"Is that okay now? I've not said that word in years, you are lucky" Kyros scoffed.

Diora smiled.

"I'm not lucky, I'm your wife" She said.

"What's the difference?"

"Maybe I'm lucky to be your wife, but you don't have to treat me the same way you treat others" She said.

"You think I would buy clothes,shoes or bags for a random girl?" Kyros scoffed.

"But you're still cold toward me" Diora said and took in her lips.

*

Diora sighed as she stared at her face in the mirror, just her thinking about last night.

She brushed her hair properly and paused again when she remembered Kyros response after she said that.

"This is my sweetest part I'm showing you, sweetest" that was what Kyros told her.

"Sweetest?" Diora scoffed and shook her head as she applied the red lipstick on her lips.

Oceane came in at that moment and smiled when she saw her.

"You're almost ready for school, I love your outfit," She said.

"Thanks" Diora smiled and turned.

"Here, you should drink this before going to school," Oceane said,handing her a glass of smoothie.

"It's an apple and a banana" She said as Diora took it from her.

Diora sipped from it and nodded her head in approval.

"You are really the best when it comes to this, Ocean" She gave her a thumbs up and she chuckled.

"Finish all"

"Thank you" Diora smiled.

She emptied the glass in no time and began arranging her things inside her bag, she wore her shoes and checked herself out again in the mirror before walking out with Ocean.

"When is your class ending today?" Oceane asked.

"3pm, why?"

"What should I prepare?"

"Never mind, I'm going to eat with my friends after school," Diora said.

"Friends, no longer one? I'm jealous now" Oceane pouted and Diora chuckled.

"Bye" She waved.

"Take care" Oceane also waved.

"Morning" Martins smiled and carefully opened the door for her when she got to the car.

"Good morning" Diora returned the smile and entered.

Minutes later, Martins was already driving into Larkspur parking lots.

Diora grabbed her bag and got down from the car before Martins could come out to open for her.

"I told you not to worry about me opening the door" She said when he also got down.

"I'm just doing my job, this isn't me getting worried about you" Martins said.

Diora only smiled and waved at him before walking away, Martins sighed and rested his back on the car.

He was there scrolling through his phone when more students kept on parking,not without the girls staring at him and whispering among themselves as they walked away.

* He's really a student's bodyguard and driver?

* He's so hot

* I've been seeing him alot.

Martins scoffed, how could they gossip about him so loudly that he could hear them.

"Someone's enjoying the attention" The familiar but annoying voice made him raise his head and he was right.

Angela crossed her arms and glared at him.

"Silence is the best answer" Martins muttered.

"Yeah for fools, unfortunately I'm not a fool" Angela said.

"That's what you really think? Really?" Martins chuckled.

Angela frowned and walked closer to him.

"Are you saying I'm a fool?" She asked.

"Whoever the shoes fit," Martins smiled.

"I hate you, but where's Diora?"

"On my head" Martins smirked.

Angela sighed.

"What am I even expecting from you?" She rolled her eyes and walked away.

Martins scoffed.

10AM*

Kyros got down from the car and the door was opened for him, he looked at the tall building in front of them and glanced at Dilara beside him.

They are supposed to meet with an important client for a contract signing.

"He really wants us to meet here? Before signing the contract?" He asked.

"Yes sir," Dilara replied.

Kyros scoffed and shoved his hands into his pocket before he began walking, the bodyguards followed them at once.

Meanwhile, inside.

"I'm so happy you honored my request, Mr Ken," Santos smiled as he poured wine into the glass of the other man sitting across from him.

"It's not a big deal at all, we looked into your company as well and we are happy to work with you" Ken said.

Santos smiled, just when he was about to say something else,the door opened and a bodyguard entered.

"Boss" He bowed.

"What is it?" Ken asked.

"Mr Kyros is here"

Mr Ken and Santos exchanged glances.

"How come?' Ken asked.

Almost immediately, Kyros stepped into the room and was quite surprised to see Santos sitting as well.

"Mr Kyros? Is that really you?" Ken got up immediately to shake hands with him.

"Yes, that's me, but it seems you are busy," Kyros said, referring to Santos.

"That's not really true, but I'm surprised you are here" Ken said nervously.

"What do you mean?" Kyros raised his brows.

"I received a message from you that you are no longer interested in our business together" Ken said.

Kyros glanced at Dilara but she also looked shocked, she faced Kyros.

"Boss, that's not true, I never sent such a message" She said.

Ken stared in confusion as well.

Kyros looked at Santos and scoffed.

"I'm so sorry Mr Kyros, I really wanted to do this business with you. But unfortunately, I signed with..."

"It's okay, please continue with your guest" Kyros cut in.

"There will be a next time for us" Ken smiled and stretched her hand for a shake again.

Kyros ignored it and walked out of the room, Dilara immediately followed.

"Sir, you believe me right? I really didn't do that, why would I?" She touched her chest,trying to explain to him.

"I know," Kyros said.

She sighed out.

"But, what could have happened?" She muttered.

"Forget it" Kyros said and entered the car first, then she joined.

*

Getting back to the Company, Dilara stayed back to handle some stuff so Kyros went to his office alone.

On her way back, she bumped into Ryker before entering the elevator.

"Hey" He called.

"Yeah hey" Dilara muttered.

"Did something happen? The boss seems angry" Ryker said.

"Actually I have no idea, the man claimed he received a message from us that we don't want that contract" Dilara explained.

Ryker frowned a little, also confused.

"But, we met Santos there with him," Dilara added.

"Santos? Boss's brother?" Ryker raised his brows.

"Yes, him," Dilara nodded.

Ryker scoffed.

"That bastard must have done something" He muttered.

Dilara said nothing else and entered the elevator.

"You can't just leave like that" Ryker stopped the door from closing.

"What else do you want?" She frowned.

"How about I give you a ride home tonight?" Ryker asked.

"I'm not interested...."

"Okay" Ryker said and walked away.

Dilara blinked as the door closed at once.

Really? That's it? He didn't even try to convince her??

She scoffed and rolled her eyes.

3PM, LARKSPUR*

"Diora, have you seen your test result?" Angela and Solar rushed over to where Diora was standing, it seemed like she was on her way out of the hall.

"What's up? You look down" Solar raised her brows.

"Yes I'm down because I don't understand why I had zero score" Diora said and showed them her laptop screen.

"What the fuck?" Angela and Solar gasped.

"I got two wrong, Solar too, so how come? That's weird" Angela said.

"You don't have to worry about it, can you please help me get my stuff into the car on your way out of school? I'm sorry, I don't think I can join you for lunch" Diora said and before they could reply,she already walked out of the class.

"What's going on? She doesn't look shocked" Solar muttered.

"You think the prof failed her on purpose?" Angela asked.

"Why would she even do that?" Solar scoffed.

They helped Diora with her stuff and left also.

"Where's she?" Martins asked when he saw the two of them.

Angela rolled her eyes.

"She's got a problem, will be here soon" Solar answered.

Martins nodded then faced Angela.

"Must you always act like a witch?" He asked.

"Must you always talk to me?" Angela glared in return.

"Right, I shouldn't be talking to you at all, you always decrease my IQ each time I have a conversation with you," Martins said.

"Good for you," She muttered.

"Can you two ever stop fighting?" Solar shook her head and checked her phone.

"Are we still having lunch together?" She asked.

"Let's shift that till tomorrow" Angela replied.

"Good, then, see you tomorrow" Solar smiled and they watched her leave.

"What are you waiting for?" Martins asked.

"I need to wait for my brother, He's giving me a ride" Angela replied and brought out two lollipops from her bag.

"Want one?"

"No, thanks" Martins said almost immediately and she glared at him.

"I fucked up" She muttered.

"Yeah, you sure did," Martins agreed.

She scoffed and returned one into her bag.
