Chapter 112
Calista walked down the stairs, dressed in the black ball gown, she had chose the black because it made her feel more comfortable..
Luciano’s eyes went up to the stairs and the moment he did, it took his breath away.
“Oh my Goodness, Lucia!” He didn’t know when he exclaimed but he definitely did. Calista had this smile on her face.
And she wished the smile won’t fade off when she sees the person who had brought this dress to her. Now, standing at the last edge of the stairs, Calista made a little turn.
She was trying to show up more to her father and just like she expected, Her father had wowed again.
“You look amazing, Lucia” May told her Smiling.
“Thank you, May.”
Calista feels glad and somehow, fullfilled. It’s like she had achieved something yet she couldn’t say what it was. A knock on the door followed by Lucas walking in.
He had come to deliver a message but he stood there as his eyes meet were on Calista.
“Lucas! Don’t stare at my daughter like that or I’ll chop your head off ” the tone of possessiveness made Calista laugh.
“How do I look, Lucas?”
“Beautiful!” He exclaimed immediately, not minding the digging eyes from his boss, Luciano.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Thank you.” Calista smile at him.
Now looking at his boss, Lucas bowed his head a little. “Someone is here to pick her up.”
Calista’s eyes brightened abd she glance up, not because she’s excited but because she’s curious to find out who the person is.
“You may go.” Luciano ordered him.
Again, he bows a little and walk away. Calista didn’t hesitate or even look at anybody before she takes a step, walking outside of the building to meet who the person is.
She was ready to reject whoever it is if it wasn’t someone worthy of her.
But then, she stopped when she saw that huge shoulder leaning on the car and backing her. She’ll always recognize him, it doesn’t matter how he stands and sits, she’ll always know it’s him.
“Chase?” She called out almost in tears.
She was right, Chase was standing right there in front of her, ready to pick her up as his date. He had kept his promise of making her his date. His promise of not hiring a whore as a date because of the media’s.
Without hesitation, Calista run to him, she have to slow down because of her dress otherwise she’d trip and fall on her face.
She run to him and hugged him tightly. Chase is taller that her, so her heel had helped her become almost his height.
She wrapped her arm around his neck and hugged him in tears.
“You’ll ruin your makeup.” She heard him say those words to her.
It made her chuckle as she disengage from the hug, but that wasn’t enough. She stood on her toe and place her lips on his. Chase didn’t back down, he kissed her back.
Placing his hand on her waist, he lifted her up a little to kiss her more. And when they both disengage, they were catching their breath.
Calista didn’t want to believe that this was real. Chase had actually come for her.
“You look beautiful.” Chase told her , smirking.
Her cheeks went red and she chuckles and muttered a thank you shyly.
She heard someone clear their throat and she turn to meet her father standing there, she turn away in embarrassment.
Luciano was happy, seeing the happy look on her daughter’s face was all that matters to him. He was ready to make up for his past, he was ready to do everything he missed doing for her all these years.
Anything to make that smile stay on her face forever, he’ll sacrifice himself for her precious daughter.
She is still that little precious girl that he have carried in his arm the very day age was born. Too bad, her mother died minutes after her birth.
“You really love him that much?” Luciano questioned his daughter.
The question had come as surprised and it made her cheeks turn red for the second time.
“Father.” She bite her lower lips in embarrassment.
Luciano chuckles and turn to look at Chase.
“Take care of her. I’ll kill you abd feed you to the vultures bit by bit if anything happens to her.”
He was serious, if anyone hurts his daughter, no amount of the pleads on earth will make him let the person see the light of the following day.
“You don’t have to be mean to him father!”
Turning to Chase. “C’mon, let’s go.” She didn’t wait for his response before she walks over to the other side of the car and got in.
“You have my word.” That was Chase’s only reply to Luciano before he walk to get into the car.
Luciano watched them driver away and he didn’t knew he had been standing there until he felt a rap on his shoulder, he turned to see his wife, May..
“Are you gonna stand there all there even when they’re gone?.”
Luciano sighed and lean to peck his wife on her forehead.
“She looks very happy the moment she sees it was him.”
“Yes, she must have love him so much. Tell me know my love, Did you tell Chase to stay away from you daughter?”
Luciano didn’t really like the question but she grin and starts walking into the house again, holding May’s hand.
“He was the reason they got into that accident, he couldn’t protect her. I didn’t know something was going on between them, what do you expect me to say? To congratulate him!? I just told him what every father would say to someone that hurt their daughter.”
“What changed your mind?”
They were in the sitting room now and Luciano had taken his hand off May, he was sitting down now.
“She came back yesterday looking hurt.”
“Luciano! You aren’t even home when she got back. How did you know?”
“Carl told me! What do you expect? I have to ask where she went to ”
May smiled and didn’t say anymore words, he could feel the pride in Luciano’s voice. He sounded like a proud father.
