The Billionaire's Bite

'Ahm... Lance, I don't know what to answer..."

"You don't need to answer Anna, I just want you to know how I feel for you."

At that moment my whole body seemed to stiffen, I didn't want to hurt her feelings because I knew how much she suffered from her first boyfriend. But my heart says otherwise, I don't feel anything every time I'm with Lance. I only look at him as a friend. I can't say that until we're just friends because I know he'll get hurt.

"I know who is in your heart, Anna..." It was as if cold water poured on me when he said that word. "You can see in your eyes how happy you are every time you are with him," he added.

I don't know who he was referring to, but only one person stuck in my mind. None other than Drake, I feel like my heart is overjoyed every time I'm with him, even though he's puffy and not very heavenly. Lance and I met eyes, we looked at each other for a few seconds until he smiled and turned his gaze to the others.

"What are you smiling at?" I will ask.

"Nothing, I'm just really laughing at myself..." He promised with a smile. He suddenly stood up and offered his hand to me. "Let's go for a walk first," he offered.

I nodded and took his hand. .we once went down to the cafeteria and walked through the vast garden.

"It makes me laugh to think that, I just confess my feeling, knowing that I know that someone else is beating your heart."

'Maybe that's how it is, love is a choice, love is like a big gamble. Many bets, often fail because of wrong decisions. But in that mistake, we learned a lesson so that we can be smarter the next time we bet." "Anna, thank you so much for agreeing to come with me today..."

"You're welcome."

"Maybe the man you love is very lucky," he said.

"That's you again for your flattery," I replied laughing.

'It's true, by the way. Let's go for the next trip?" he asked. "Wherever?"

"Where will my gas go," he replied with a laugh.

Lance and I spent the day visiting different places, and I have to admit that I was happy because we talked a lot and got to know each other better.

We are now in her car, we are driving down the road to Thea's condo because we are on our way home. It was already dark around so we thought of going home.

A few minutes later we arrived at Thea's condo, she immediately came down to open the door for me.

"Thanks for the delivery."

"You're welcome..." He replied smiling.

"I'm going in, be careful," I said and I was about to turn around when he suddenly spoke.

"Ahm... Anna... I'm always here if you need me." I smiled and nodded. I waited for him to leave before I finally entered.
