Chapter 52

"An arrangement is an arrangement" Edde uttered in an indifferent shrug as my eyes fell in disappointment, I didn't expect such a response from him. Maybe I did but not in such a sassy manner.

The silence in the room was only Making my claustrophobia react and my bum felt unsteady on the chair. I blinked my eyes multiple times in order not to cry or look like I was expecting a serious relationship with Edde. Rue's eyes were on me and she looked like she noticed my change of mood.

"Oh! My total bad, that didn't come out right. I take back my word, Elizabeth is my girl and I love her. She is so special to me" Edde uttered light heartedly as he laughed out holding my hands into his, I signed in relief as I rolled my eyes and hissed.

I didn't really understand him though because he made it clear to me that our deal still stands, I didn't really want to think deep into that and ruin my mood again. I was just happy that he reversed his words instead of making it sound like he was rejecting me.

"My instinct never lies anyways, I knew you loved her from the first time I saw you both together. You really can't hide your feelings Edde" Rue pointed out proudly as I smiled uneasily, I wasn't really buying the love thing.

If Edde doesn't see me worthy enough to spend the rest of his life with, then he doesn't love me.

"Rue literally See through everyone, I wonder how she does that" Wyatt uttered as Rue turned to him making them exchange close intimate eye contacts that I feared they would kiss in front of us.

That would only make the situation weird between me and Edde.

"Why don't you take Grey in" Edde whispered softly to my ears as I turned to the fast sleeping baby and nodded.

The door creaked open as I turned to see Ray pulling his luggages in, I totally forgot about Ray!.

"You're the best Big brother ever Edde!" Ray uttered sarcastically as Edde tightened his lip to avoid laughing out loud. "Laugh all you want Edde!, Thank God Nelly informed me about your sudden return to UK" Ray said as he pulled his luggages in.

"I'm so sorry, I was just in a hurry. By the way you left your room to meet a slut, maybe you would have seen me leaving" Edde shrugged as Ray rolled his eyes and turned to me and then Wyatt and Rue.

"Welcome home Ray" I said in a smile as I watched his eyes fall on Grey.

"I'm sure you never asked Edde of me, it's fine. How is Grey doing?" He asked as I nodded guiltily.

"Grey is fine, I was about to send him to bed before you came in" I said and started climbing the stairs.

"Hey, you! Come take my luggages in" I heard Ray's authoritative voice as I slammed my door shut.

***

It was almost my bed time but I wasn't ready to sleep. I was alone in the room with Grey while Edde was in the sitting room with Wyatt and Rue having random discussions. I could hear Ray's loud laughter too which meant that they were having a fun discussion.

I didn't really feel like leaving the room so I took my laptop and started playing a video game I recently installed. I really needed to call my Mom and Melanie but Edde had my phone and wasn't acting like he was ready to give it back.

The door creaked open as Edde walked in with a slight smile on his lips. "Get up, we are going to a club tonight" Edde ordered, snapping his fingers at me as I wrinkled my brows in confusion.

"By this time of the night?" I asked as he nodded, walking towards the closet.

"Yes Betta, what time do you think people go to clubs?" He asked as I hissed.

"What about Grey?" I asked worriedly as I stood from the bed.

"He has a Nanny, just stop asking unnecessary questions and come put this on '' he uttered and threw a shiny silver bodycon gown at me.

Few minutes later we were both done dressing and was outside standing by the car and waiting for Rue. I already made sure that Miss Brooke was with Grey before I left the room.

I didn't really feel comfortable leaving Grey behind at such an hour of the night, 10:20pm. Edde wasn't looking bothered at all.

I rested my back on the car as I turned, staring at Edde's outfit. He wore a blue Jean trouser and a white T-shirt which he left a few buttons open revealing his tight chest. His shoulder muscles were clenched to the T-shirt so tightly which made Edde look hotter.

I didn't feel comfortable with his chest showing and his muscles popping out like that, girls at the club will definitely stare and I can't handle that.

He made sure he chose a decent dress for me which didn't show much skin, he always made sure of that anyways.

My eyes drifted to his black Nike shoes which suited his clothe perfectly, Edde looked Charming as always and I wasn't okay with that.

"Come on!, Rue you should stop wasting time in choosing your outfits!" Wyatt's voice echoed calling me back to earth as I took my eyes off Edde.

"Let's get going already," Edde said as he led me into the Lamborghini.

Thank God we were going with the chauffeur and one of the security guards, I wasn't exactly comfortable with the night outing but with the security guard I was kinda sure of our safety.

*

Getting to the club house the loudness of the music and the numbers of cars and people present was shocking, they were all partying like it wasn't late already.

The car was parked at the lot as we walked into the building, the loudness could burst the ear drums literally. I used my palms to cover my ear as we found our way in through the crowd.

No one could notice Edde and that was all thanks to the dim colorful disco light, we walked through a door which led to another room which was filled with female strippers and just a few people.

"Welcome Sir" A fat blonde lady dressed slutty exactly like the stripper greeted as Edde nodded, she was obviously their boss or something.

"Serve drinks to our table" Edde ordered as she nodded and left, we took a seat at the space next to us as we watched the strippers do the most on the Pole.

"Wyatt, have I told you that I can pole dance?" Rue said as my jaw slacked in awe.

"Yes Rue, multiple times and I don't want to see you dance" Wyatt uttered with an eye rolled as I nearly cracked at their dramatic couple behavior.

"You was a stripper?" I found myself asking as Rue shakes her head negatively.

"Nope, I learnt from an old friend who was a full time stripper, now she has one of the best strip clubs in Dubai. Maybe I would have been a stripper but Wyatt came quite early" Rue said and nudged Wyatt playfully Making me smile at how free she was with him, he doesn't judge her at all. I don't think they are capable of having a couple fight.

"Hello, Nice to see you Mr Edde" A Slutty looking girl greeted as she served our drinks, she specially greeted Edde like she wasn't seeing the rest of us or something.

"Sir, is there anything you need? Like anything anything?" She asked seductively as I Scoffed disgustedly, what was she trying to do!? Edde wasn't reacting to the way she was romancing him and that annoyed me the most.

"How about a special dance?" She offered as she massaged Edde's shoulders gently. I sipped my drink and took my eyes off them to avoid reacting jealously but it was getting too hard for me to hold my range.

I half stared at Edde just to see him smiling, why was he smiling instead of sending the hoe away. He looked up at me as our eyes met, sending a cold shiver down my spine as I quickly looked away, I could still feel his eyes on me and that only made my butt unstable on the chair.

"I see that you're enjoying the massage sir, why don't you come with me to our room for massage" she offered, biting her lip softly as I sneered at her disgustingly.

"Stop holding yourself back" Ray whispered to my ears as I bit my lips actually holding myself back from hitting this girl, I didn't want to look jealous or something.

"How about a lap dance?" She offered as I gnitched my teeth angrily and slammed my hand on the table making the drinks spill to the floor as I stood up.

"Can't you see that you're trying too hard and he isn't even responding, Edde will only get you pregnant. Leave!".
