Chapter 18 - The Alibi Man
Edward confidently and with an incredibly charming smile of the room and my knees were soft. Not with desire, no, it was rather a shock, let me tremble.
Edward Cullen was the new owner of Lou's Diner "and now, my new boss!
I found myself behind the bar and had to lean on the counter. He fixed me with his piercing eyes, a triumphant smile on his perfect face.
I still tried to understand what actually happened here, as Edward spoke.
"Good evening," he began with a calm and authoritative voice, "Thank you, that you have taken on the way in to attend this meeting. I can well imagine that it's a shock to you must be to learn about this abrupt change. I can assure you that nothing will change for now in the processes. I must first make an image of the entire situation before I decide how to proceed is. "
He noted
looked around and saw everyone in the eye. Against my will I was impressed by his performance, because I did not know.
He was very professional and cool. His attitude is full of confidence and no one in the room, not even I could not escape his aura.
suddenly talking to each other by all, as if everyone simultaneously recovered from the shock and is now registered, which was just opened them as indicated.
Edward made no move to stop the people and sat back with folded arms. He let me not for one second out of sight and anger about this situation was boiling up in me.
Why the hell he bought the diner? But the answer was clear. Now he had the total control of my life! Not only that, he robbed me privately last nerve, no, now I had him stand still at work.
He probably knew exactly to my face what was going on in my head and smiled devilishly. He predicted that afternoon that you can not with impunity rejected a Cullen.
slowly calmed everyone and I threw a question to the room.
"Mr.Cullen," I began, smiling thinly, "how is it that a successful entrepreneur like you, just a small fast food restaurant buys, on the verge of collapse. "
I expected a flippant answer, but again he surprised me. He acted as if he were hard to see my name tag, before he gave me an answer.
Miss. Swan, "he said sternly," I do not think it concerns you what, why and for what reason I do something out or not. I have my reasons and do not share that with my employees. Do not break your pretty head about it and wait. You will find out soon enough why I bought the diner. Patience is a virtue, Miss Swan and I have infinite patience. "
The last sentence was a clear allusion and I shuddered. Oh yes, he was patient, like a spider waiting for the inquisitive victim caught in her web. I now feel it to be entangled and helpless to struggle in the trap until it devoured me with skin and hair. I crossed my arms
his chest and said nothing insulting, which drew from him now, but a brief smile. He was very pleased with himself and I would have liked, like a child thrown to the floor and howled with rage. Why was life so mean to me?
Lou spoke again.
"Guys, I know it's a shock to you, but I had no other choice. I have until the end been waiting to tell you this. The negotiations go so now the last 3 weeks and today the signatures were placed under the contracts. "
I looked at Edward, but his face was impenetrable, and I could read any emotion from it.
The meeting continued for a half an hour and finally said goodbye Lou. He would still remain about a week before the dinner completely handed over to Edward.
"Bella," said Lou, "I have a question for you. I want you to explain to Mr. Cullen, the processes in the diner. You are here the longest and I trust you wholeheartedly. You must know, Mr. Cullen, "he said to him," Bella is something like my delegate. Without them, the shop would be in chaos. "
" I'm looking forward to our cooperation. Then I do so, to whom I turn do if I have a question. "
Thanks Lou! I looked grimly vowed Edward and me to look for a new job immediately. I would not allow that he exploited the situation and adding me every day.
After Lou was gone, I went into the living rooms. Rose was already gone, because she had a date. Since they did not mention to whom it was, I wondered around whether it might have to Emmett. I took my bag, turned around and left her a moment later with fear falling again.
"Can not you make yourself noticeable when you enter a room," I grumbled, "Heaven Edward, sometime I get another heart attack, if you always ranschleichst."
He leaned against the door and smiled indifferently .
"With me you must always be, Isabella on guard! Shall I take you home? "He asked now more friendly.
"I'd rather walk on high heels a marathon before I voluntarily spend even a minute with you!" I snapped.
He just shrugged his shoulders.
"It was just a well-meant offer."
"With offers from you so you know, right? Too bad that none is even close to interesting to me. "
Furious, I went with the poor in my jacket and the zipper closed energetically.
"you probably know that I will find myself a new job immediately, right?" I asked and wanted to squeeze past him.
I was almost out when he called after me.
"If you cancel, Bella, then I do the dinner-tight."
I stopped and turned me to disbelieve him. He did not mean seriously?
He leaned against the wall and flicked an imaginary speck from his designer suit.
"It would be a shame to the store, do not you think?" He asked, sneaky, "Imagine if only once! All your colleagues are suddenly without a job. Do you know how hard it is to find in this economy, what new? They will pay their rent can not and end up on the street. And all because you were too afraid to stand up for me. Are you really so cowardly, Bella? Riskier something, dear. Let's play! "
He wanted to play, then, yes? This Bastard! When he's not just so damn attractive would be, it would be easier for me to be near him. But I already proved that I could stand up to him. If I was forced to endure it persists, Edward Cullen would experience his life. One thing he forgot in his game. He asked me at least as much as I did, if not more.
"All right! I stay, so I have no other choice. I trust you to thoroughly that all you here is on the road, just because you do not get your will. But one thing I tell you. I will not blackmail me. If you think I would now go to bed with you, then deceives you up enormously. Even bring your threats as nothing! "
Now he seemed offended.
"I would never blackmail you for sex! This is beyond the pale, "he said, and came slowly towards me," I want you to come voluntarily to me. "
He stood close to me and ran my thumb over her lips. A warm feeling was in me wide and I had to spend all my strength, not to fall into his arms. He covered my mouth with his and kissed me. Slowly, slowly, softly.
My lips parted and I let one's tongue, spoiled me once exquisite. She was so soft and firm at the same time, stroked and licked as he stroked my hips with his hands.
"We are perfect together," he groaned and deepened the kiss, let him be passionate.
I counted to ten and then gently pushed him away from me.
"But, but, Mr. Cullen," I said teasingly, "you will not rob it of an employee? I wish you a nice evening. "
I left him there and went out the door.
"closing from behind you, you're not sure your new ownership will be robbed."
Edward looked at me, shaking his head afterward, grinning slightly.
This round went to me, definitely!
The next day I brought Danny to the meeting place, where gathered the other children and the teachers already. Have all been terribly upset, because they were never separated from their parents. There were only two days, but to me the parting was extremely hard.
"Call me immediately if you are arrived!"
Danny nodded like and gave me a peck on the cheek.
"I do Mum, I promise!"
After the luggage and the children were stowed in the bus, they drove off. I looked after waving them and sighed. He was so fast. Now he already drove off without me and I felt a little frustrated. What luck that I would take the same to Alice and George. Then I would not stay on my day without Danny, lonely.
Alice picked me up and we walked to the agreed meeting point. I told her the whole story of Edward and she was speechless to say the least. A fact which was increasing at Alice seriously.
After she recovered, she grinned broadly.
"I wish that Jasper would be put into stuff to land with me. But he is back just as distant as at the beginning, " she sighed a little sadly, "I also believe that he has reconciled with the blond poison. I have seen them go with him in his car. "
" Are you sure? "I asked skeptically. Actually, I had the impression that he now saw Alice with different eyes. But if one make sense of the men! Apparently Jasper, as almost all members of the male species, no longer goes to the fickle and changed his views as his underwear.
Alice shrugged her shoulders.
If yes do not care! It was just nice that night, that's all. He'll never fall in love with me and I need to finally have it get over. Otherwise, I'm sitting in ten years the club languishing behind him. We have two but also lucky in love, what! You stick a stalker super-rich on the cheek and I'm in love with the biggest block of ice on Seattle. "
grin I put my arm around her shoulders.
"We will manage somehow. We can only put up with anything. I have decided to let Edward Cullen really run up and you can start even with a nice man. Juan is not a crush at the bar hopelessly in love with you? "
Alice laughed uproariously.
"Juan is in love with everything that is under thirty and breathes. But you're right. I should go out with him! Him I will not break my heart if I want to spend an enjoyable evening. How about a double date. You could take that George, when we brought him back on track and we go out for four. "
I thought for a moment. Danny was not there and I could use a good bit of variety to distract me from Edward. Furthermore, it would drive him into madness when he learned that I was going out with a man like George, while I refused him rigorously.
It was also the perfect opportunity to Georges confidence a little polish. The poor fellow began to stutter as soon as a female Beings even came near him. I just hoped he did not misunderstood my attention and he fell in love with me.
"Is that him?" Asked Alice.
George stood in front of an exclusive men's outfitters, shifting from one foot to the other. When he saw Alice and me, he turned red.
"Ha ... ha ... hi" he stammered awkwardly and looked away.
"Cheer up!" Ordered Alice energetic, "You have people looking over your eyes when you talk to them! I can see, it will be a lot of work, but when we are done with you, then you're a new person. "
George looked at Alice, as if it were a revelation. We took him to the middle and entered the business. Since George had no financial problems, it was not a problem, dress him in such an expensive business. It was the classiest place in town and Alice insisted auszustaffieren it here with new clothes.
While collapsed over zealous seller to George and Alice looked after, that this did not put on the table, I looked around a little.
It was set up incredibly luxurious and masculine. The rooms were decorated in muted colors, a huge brown leather sofa stood against a wall and the sales room was divided into small private rooms to ensure customers retain their privacy.
A female, squeaky voice made me sit up.
"Edward, how much clothing you want to try for? I'm bored! "
" So many, I had to come to the right, "said Cullen annoyed and stepped out of a separate area.
He was wearing an incredibly well-cut dark gray suit, looking stunning. The color emphasized his hair color, its elegant pale and beautiful face. How could God allow only that so much beauty and perfection were united in one person?
By at least gave him a bad character, I answered myself the question and walked quickly behind a chair on diving spot, lest he discovered me. I crouched on the floor, hoping that he soon disappeared.
"Jessica, why do not already before and I get to later," said he is now a charming accent, "I need some time."
is "good, Honey! I'm off's go out and give your money, "Jessica giggled this.
contempt I grimaced. She was just as hollow as the party where I had the pleasure of a conversation between her and another mindless Society beauty, while I served them the tidbits. These shares had him immensely be important if he wanted to marry for these pretty hollow head.
I peeped cautiously in his direction and saw Jessica kissed him on the mouth. Oh God, snogs like a camel! They probably pushed his tongue all the way into the neck, as he pushed her away quite quickly and patted her cheek.
"Now be a good girl and go ever forward," he asked her.
Jessica giggled stupidly and ran with a nodding Po from the store. A quiet sense of Schadenfreude spread through me. Even if I am not able to drive him to madness, so this woman alone was punishment enough. I chuckled quiet and I met with shock his head as his voice rang out behind me.
"So sweet your ass I also think Bella, but you do not find it silly to hide from me."
I rubbed my aching forehead, and looked up at him. He held out his hand to me aufzuhelfen and I took it. He effortlessly pulled me up to him and I bounced off his chest. He did not release me, but directed me to his cabin and shut the door.
"So, and now you betray me, what are you doing here, dear!"
He watched fascinated how my chest with excitement quickly raised and lowered, put the palm on it and burned me with his hot looks. Without answering him, I looked helplessly into his green eyes, and he groaned slightly.
"Bella," he whispered, "Bella, I'm longing so after you." He kissed me passionately
trembled all over and snuggled up tight against mine. His warmth and scent I wore on me, made me dizzy and the sweetness of his kisses, contributed to the fact that I lost myself in it.
I allowed myself a few brief moments with him, kept telling myself it would only belong to me, before I gently but firmly pushes away.
"I'm not because of you here, "I informed him," But because of George. He needs a new suit when we go out tonight. "
Edward slipped formally the facial features.
"You go out with the washcloth and let me brush-off," he cried aghast.
"Looks that way," I replied happily.
It felt good to see that my answer took him off balance. The great Edward Cullen suspended, by a male virgin.
"He will never be able to give you what you need, Bella. It must be obvious to you, "he whispered urgently, and laid his hand on my bosom, he massaged immediately with skilled movements. "He will never touch you like I do and he will never be able to give you what you deserve."
I watched as he slid his hand on my hip and up slowly pulled my skirt to the naked leg was visible. His warm hand closed around him and he picked him up, pushed his groin between my legs. He was excited and rubbed gently at my center.
Can "you feel what you do to me? That's all for you, dear! "
with what strength I freed myself from him, before my mind finally adopted.
"You're such a hypocrite! It's not five minutes ago that you kissed your fiancee and now you stand here and tell me about longing. I'll tell you what I deserve. I deserve a man who only belongs to me and sees me not only as a sex toy. You have to have everything come up, if you want rumkriegen me. At the moment I do not see any opportunities for you. I'm sorry your fiancee. Even such a fool as Jessica deserves something better. "
He just laughed and let me go.
"I did not expect that you immediately fall into my arms, but I can wait. You would not believe how patient I can be, So, look forward too soon see on your small successes. "
" We are so, who laughs at the end, "I replied and left the cabin.
Alice looked at me surprised when I was there again.
"Where have you been? Suddenly you were like swallowed by the earth! "
your question has been answered, as Edward and George came to us and pulled off with a contemptuous glance. Knowing she looked at me and I just rolled his eyes annoyed.
George was very small at Edwards survey, and said no beep. Edward I decided to shock a little and hung me from George.
Has "Alice advise you well? I would like to eventually that you look good if we now go to the club. This is certainly a wonderful evening, as always. Every woman is lucky, a man like to have you on their side, "I gushed with a malicious glance at Edward.
The foamed with rage, literally. He actually believed that I agree with what George had going. A stifling giggles, I stroked George on the cheek and winked at him conspiratorially. Understood immediately and played with.
"Bella, I'm hunting for you mom even to the devil. You would not believe how much I am on tonight and looking forward to tonight, "he gushed.
Grinning, I looked at my new buddy. He could really go out of himself and in his suit that Alice was looking out to him and without his glasses, which also fell victim to her, he even looked passable. In any event, good enough to Edward to mislead.
"I think it makes me," I heard him say only, "I must go now, my fiancee is waiting for me impatiently."
"Do not let stop you," I answered him with my sweetest voice, and saw continue enthusiastically to George.
Edward snorted and left the store.
"Wow, Bella, but this is a dangerous game you play. Now he intended to cross in the club to see if you go out really with George. "
" I thank you for playing! ", I ignored and Alice looked at George," But you know already that there can only be friendship between us, right? "
It was a bit late to clear this only now, but George just grinned.
is "okay, Bella. For women it is too early to me, I'm glad when I finally have friends. I hope for so long. "
Alice pushed him stirred in her breast and pushed back her tears. She was always close to the water '.
"George, now you have friends. If it should go for someone who cut you a silly saying about the ears, then he gets it with us to do. Well, now enough of the sentimentality. We still have a haircut with you. Your haircut is atrocious, have stopped the last time the middle of it? "Alice wondered checking the strands and let slip through their fingers.
George paid his suit and we were looking for a good barber, the Georges put the finishing touches on hair.
Then, with new clothes and contact lenses and chic, haircut, he was almost unrecognizable.
It would be ridiculous if we are not now able to make a whole man from George and while he would serve as my alibi friend to Edward "loudmouth" Cullen obliterate one.
I started driving me nuts to look forward to the evening. Although I was aware that I am docked with a dangerous delusion, but I could not resist the tingle, which I always took our arguments. My behavior was childish, yes, but his was not much better. Now would see who drew the short straw here.
