Fifty- Four - Is Amir on drugs again? - Liar, Liar, Billionaires

"What took you guys so long?" Amir asked as Nathaniel and Chloe walked into the conversation room. The whole room smelt exotic and that pricked Chloe's interest.

"We have your Christmas present," Nathaniel almost sounded excited as he jiggled the box in his hand.

"Did you guys go for a quickie or what?" Sebestian snatched the box ignoring Amir who was still being silly. "You know what, I really don't care. Just go and get dressed."

"Why? And what's with the suits? It looks like we are shooting a scene for a charity event," Chloe said, her arms crossed.

"We are going to meet Anderson." Amir's eyes went to Nathaniel. "I am certain you don't think you can be very intimidating in that shirt, so up you go..." he gestured towards the ceiling.

Nathaniel had his brows up in question. "Gabriel?"

"Yes?" Thean answered.

Chloe almost had her jaws dropping. He looked too dashing. Within the few minutes she and Nathaniel were gone, he had found a new hairdo that made his side face look so good. With his face glowing, she only had to guess he had gotten some few minutes face upliftment.

If there was anything like that.

"Is Amir on drugs again?"

"You think he is too excited too, right?" Chloe shook her head. What was she doing finding Gabriel alluring at that moment? Surely, Amir who was also in a suit looked almost the same.

"Could you go and get dressed? Chloe?" She looked his way. He was dashing in his own way but not like Gabriel. "Never mind."

Nathaniel let out a low chuckle, reached for Chloe's hand and led her out of the busy room. "You should get dressed."

"I don't even know the Anderson guy" Chloe whispered back even though it was silly.

"We can't afford to leave you at home right now. So... do as we say and get dressed."

"Okay sir," Chloe who was already looking forward to some time alone with herself sighed.

"Did you just refer to me as sir?"

"No." Her eyes darted dramatically as their walking stopped.

He gave a low, sort of determined chuckle "You-"

"Bye. I need to go get dressed." Chloe cut him short hurriedly and rushed up the stairs, almost bumping into Lucille who seemed to be dressed as well.

Amir took a quick scan of the team and said, "We do look like we are going to a charity event or some expensive party. Nathaniel's gorgeousness has been trying to blind me."

Chloe tried to hide her smile as she took another dreamy look at Nathaniel. He sure did look amazing. Like Gabriel, his seemlingly face upliftment made him look so good, it almost made her heart and eyes fall out and get even a closer view.

But she had to wonder, because he was also wearing a new hairdo, if they had a secret make up artist within their walls. If they did, she would have loved some help with deciding what to wear or deciding whether the red or neon lipstick worked better with her white ensemble.

She had settled for the neon, but it was quite a battle even when she decided to pair her white top with her never worn matching trousers which a long white jacket completed without a hassle.

It was the only fancy stuff about her luggage.

"It's Chloe's beauty that makes my heart flutter," Gabriel said, breaking Chloe's thoughts.

"Keep your thoughts to yourself," Nathaniel warned Gabriel whose eyes stayed on Chloe in a way that made her feel weird , grabbed Chloe's hand and led her to his car parked right behind Amir's ride.

"Bye. We'll meet you all there," Amir dramatically said and Lucille came out at the same time in a very sexy red gown that made her hair look so surreal.

"Well-" Nathaniel stopped his words as his eyes landed on Chloe.

"What?" He said nothing but leaned closer, giving Chloe ideas. "Natha-" His eyes went to her lips intensely and she almost shrudded because of how wanting it made her.

She was about to lean in when he drew back, cleared his voice and said, "Put on your seatbelt." And he kicked the car to life.

The two hours ride to Anderson's main company looked like minutes. Contrary to the first time she rode in his car, they talked a lot. Not about serious things like life or the past and the likes. They just talked about silly, fun things and interesting observations.

They even imagined what could be beneath the cliff he had showed her that seemed to lead to a dead end. Chloe imagined nothing but dangerous trees. And Nathaniel... his idea wasn't so friendly.

"Others are here," Nathaniel said as he drove into the parking lot and drove past a seemingly angry Amir who had his arms crossed. "I guess we shouldn't have stopped for those spicy chicken wings."

Chloe took off the black jacket she had on at that moment of munching and said, "I don't regret it. It was so good."

"I know." He smiled back and grabbed her jacket. As she got down, she put it on and waited for Nathaniel.

Soon, they were approaching the rest.

"Hi," she simply said.

"Where is Sebastian?" Nathaniel asked with seriousness.

"He stayed back to check out what's in the box," Gabriel replied.

"Why are you late?" Amir questioned.

"We bought you some chicken feet."

"Really?" His face lit and the couple shared a knowing look. "You do know how to bribe one well. Anyway, Lucille?"

"Yes Amir." The woman came forward.

"You'll be the one in my arms today." His smile widened. Gabriel almost groaned.

"Uh?"
