ONE HOUR LATER
'Where am I? What am I doing here?'
These were the questions that she found asking herself as she sat in a fancy restaurant, something that she didn't plan on doing when she left the house earlier that morning.
Sitting with her, just opposite her, was the man, the one that had made her heart flutter just one hour ago.
To think that she would find herself having that breakfast she missed at the palace and was having it with such a hot man in turn, she found her decision to eat later to be the greatest decision she made that day.
Diamond was not the type of girl that would recklessly fall for someone. After what her second-rich-generation ex-boyfriend did to her, she vowed to never act recklessly again.
She even planned on securing her future first and making a name for herself before thinking of finding someone to date.
To her, dating and marrying were completely different things, as the person she might date today might not be the one that she gets married to in the future.
If she were to say honestly that she had fallen head over heels at first sight with the man seated in front of her helping her to cut the Vienna's as if she didn't have hands right now, that would be a lie.
There was a difference between love and lust, and what she was feeling for that man was definitely lust.
Men with that kind of face were the most dangerous. How many women were already wooing him? She didn't want to get hurt, but as someone who hadn't satisfied her flesh for years, she didn't mind rolling onto the sheets with him, even if he was taken.
It was going to be a passing thing and wouldn't feel bad about it. However, if she were to let him just go like that without getting anything, she was absolutely sure that she would regret it in the future. And regrets weren't what she was looking for.
Besides, if he was taken, he wouldn't be sitting with her right now. The two of them were too catchy and thinking of how he confidently asked her for a meal. There was no way he was taken.
She wasn't sure, but for the moment; she was going to enjoy herself and think more later.
Honestly, he didn't know where he got his courage from. He was very sure that he was going to leave without saying anything to her or even getting closer to her.
Kian was that uncomfortable around women and yet what happened was the total opposite.
When he spotted her, he couldn't help but look at her from afar. Charlie, who was with him, suddenly spotted something he was interested in leaving Kian by himself.
And the more he stood there watching from afar, the more frustrated he became, especially after overhearing some leering comments regarding her.
There were so many opportunistic men in the world and there was no way he was going to allow such people to approach the woman he had set his eyes on.
So, gathering all the courage he could muster, he found himself making his way towards her and it just flowed smoothly from that.
