Chasing The Broken CEO
Chapter 90

We were all got busy the next day. It was grandma's birthday and I didn't expect that there were so many visitors coming in to celebrate with her. Most of them are grandma's friends residing here in Bohol, colleagues from university, co- workers from the company she used to work with and her neighbors around this subdivision.

Her birthday celebration was held in the mansion. Visitors are scattered in every corner of the place and voices greeting my grandmother can be heard repeatedly. My parents have called us over the phone too and greeted her which made her the happiest.

"Happy birthday, grandma!" I greeted her happily and then hugged her tight.

"Thank you so much, sweetheart!" She replied sweetly and then kissed me on my cheek.

"I have a gift for you. I put it inside your room so you can unbox it later," I said as I slightly pulled away from her. "I hope you will like it."

"My goodness, you don't have to give me anything, sweetheart. You and Evan being here with me is more than enough! You have no idea how happy I feel today!"

"Happy birthday, grandma Helga." Evan walked towards us and greeted her as well. He kissed her forehead and handed her a bouquet of red roses.

Grandma's face turned soft because of the bouquet of flowers she received from Evan. She even smelt it and then turned her gaze to Evan who is already beside me.

"My granddaughter's boyfriend is the sweetest. You have won my blessings!" she said as she giggled. "I love this, Evan. Thank you..."

"Anything for you, grandma." Evan smiled at her as he snaked his arm around my waist.

Grandma has seen that and gave us a malicious stare. She then playfully smiled at us and obviously feeling giddy as she continued to stare at us. I shook my head. She's really unbelievable.

We let her joined her friends on their table and talked to them. The whole celebration was very simple and peaceful. We didn't get a chance to run a program as grandma did not want to but that doesn't lessen the happiness she feels right now. I can see it through her amber eyes. She's really enjoying her day specially her friends are here to celebrate with her.

Evan gave me a wine glass that has a champagne in it. I stared at him carefully and can't help but to admire him more. He looked very handsome and attractive in his white long sleeves, brown pants and shoes. His sleeves were folded nicely on his arms, making his veins visible. He drank his champagne gracefully. I watched how his lips tasted his drink. He licked it after finishing it and then he glanced my way and grinned devilishly.

Such a good seducer.

"I didn't expect that a lot of visitors will come..." I mumbled.

Some of them were having fun in the garden. I glanced at the flowers and other plants behind the visitors. They are beautiful and complemented the color of the tables we've set up in there. It was fortunate that we're able to anticipate the number visitors so we planned to set up tables in the garden as well in case the living room became too crowdy.

Evan nodded his head at me. "Your grandmother seems very friendly. I already expected this."

"How about you, love? Where are your grandparents?" I asked curiously as he never mentioned about them before.

"They are residing at Iligan, Rish. We'll meet them soon as they really want to meet you personally. My grandma is dying to meet you," he replied with a smile on his face.

"I wish to get to know them well. I want to meet those people who are important to you," I said and smiled at him too.

"Of course, love. I'll be happy to introduce you as my significant other." he said softly.

We decided to sit on the available table in the garden. We're both chuckling when the visitors started to have fun by dancing. Even my grandma and her other friends started to dance in the center. They are dancing with an old music. Based on their moves, it seems to me that they are doing an old dance steps. I can't stop laughing as I watched my grandmother dancing energetically.

Some of the oldies went to our direction and urged us to dance as well. Evan and I looked at each other and gave them an awkward smile. They kept tugging us so in the end, we stood up together and joined them in their 'dancefloor' to dance with them.

I laughed so hard as I watched Evan dancing as if he's a wood. He's laughing too, and shaking his head as he realized that he's not a good dancer.

"Wow! That's a turn off!" I exclaimed, still laughing as I danced.

He raised a brow and then pulled me closer to him. I hugged him accidentally because of what he did. Wrapping both of his hands around my back, he started hugging me. We swayed gracefully as the music continued to play. "Clingy!" I laughed and let him dance with me.

He pulled away and held my hand. He made me turn around while holding my hand in the air and then pulled me closer to him again for one passionate kiss. My cheeks flushed immediately and my body froze up a bit. I closed my eyes and kissed him back. The next thing I knew was people around us were cheering on us. They are all gushing because we're kissing in the middle of the garden. Damn it, Zendejas!

***

It's almost midnight but I am having trouble putting myself into sleep. Grandma's birthday celebration was a blast and I am glad that she was happy and already having a good sleep. I sipped on my cup of green tea and enjoy the cold night breeze. I leaned on the cemented railings as I enjoyed the night view here at the balcony. The sound of waves from the beach nearby makes me feel warm.

I smiled as I remember how Evan kissed me in front of the crowd earlier. I didn't expect him to be that playful but I can still feel the butterflies inside my stomach whenever I think about it. It was just so intimate and I won't be able to forget it. Lately, he's been doing a lot of things to make me happy. He's been showing his love and that he truly cares about me. Sometimes, I feel like I don't deserve it all given what happened in the past and how I acted in front of him when I was too broken.

My door creaked open. I turned around to see who entered into my room. My eyes were directed to Evan's figure on the door frame. He slowly closed the door and looked my way.

My eyes went back to the beach that I could see from here. I heard his footsteps as he walked near me. I smelled his familiar shower gel, almost enticing my attention. I felt him stopped behind me and then his arms started to hugged me on my back.

"Can't sleep?" he asked me in his husky voice.

I leaned my head on his chest before I nod at him. I sipped on the cup of tea and finished it right away. The cold breeze blew on my skin that made me shiver a bit.

"I had a coffee earlier so I'm having trouble sleeping. How about you?"

"I can't sleep either..." he replied. "Aren't you cold?"

"I was. But you're already here and hugging me so I don't feel cold now," I said smiling because he's hugging me and making me feel warm.

Why am I smiling, anyway? These butterflies inside my stomach started to gush in glee.

"Hmm, I'll hug you tight, then..." he whispered and then hugged me tight.

I closed my eyes and seize the moment. "This... feels great, love."

He chuckled. My heart started to pound loudly inside my chest. Never did I imagine that he'd affect me in all ways. I felt him burying his head on my neck. I can feel his warm breathings on my skin. I bit my lower lip and tilted my head as we remained in our position. I totally like him being so affectionate and clingy. I can stay here with him in this position without getting tired at all. This just feels good that I can't ask for more.

"I'd trade everything just to hug you like this every night, Rish..." he said softly that made my heart skipped a bit.

"Why are you so sweet, Evan Zendejas?" I chuckled and turned around so I can see his face.

I felt his hands on my back. The side of his lips curled up. His smile made me gasp. He's glaring at me as if I am some kind of a reward he wants to treasure forever. Damn it!

"You'll get used to it, Risha Saavedra..." he said coolly and tilted his head. "You'll get more used to it once I change your last name into mine... once you become my Zendejas."

I pouted my lips. I am on the verge of smiling widely but I tried to suppress it as I don't want him to see that I am so excited to be his wife... I acted coolly in front him by nodding with what he said.

"When do you plan to change my last name, anyway?" I raised a brow as I asked him that question.

The amusement in his soulful eyes is very evident. He licked his lips, and smiled sweetly at me.

"I want to make sure you're ready when the right time comes, baby... I won't take this slow but I want to do it right and fast for you..." he said softly.

My lips parted because of what his last statement. I gave him confuse glare. His statement was like a puzzle to me. Not to add that my heart is still pounding like crazy inside my chest. Even though it doesn't understand everything Evan have said, it's still happy. I guess that's how love works... Your heart beats faster the more it hears the voice of the person you love the most.

"Seriously? I don't understand you," I shook my head.

His hand reached my cheek and caressed it softly. He then leaned his head forward and gave me a soft but warm kiss on my forehead. His gesture made me close my eyes a bit.

My heart could not even calm down a bit. It's beating so loud and fast, as if it wants to break my ribcage. I breathed in heavily and tried to compose myself.

"I'll do it fast, baby..." he whispered as I felt his lips on tip of my nose. He kissed it too. "This chase must end..."

My mouth ran dry. I breathed heavily and opened my eyes to meet his gaze. I saw how his eyes went down my lips. I blinked twice and the next thing I knew was his lips are already tasting mine.

He claimed my lips. With his hand on my waist and the other one on my neck, he tipped my head up to deepen the kiss. I closed my eyes and respond to his kiss passionately. Wrapping my hands around his neck.

My body quivered as we kissed passionately. I put down the cup I'm holding to the table beside us and held his nape to deepen the kiss. He then planted soft kisses on my neck and it drives me nut. I tilted my head for him to have full access. Every kiss he gives on my skin sends shiver up to my spine. Shit...

"Evan..." I whispered when I felt his mouth on my clavicle.

He only chuckled but continued with what he is doing. I lost all my senses and didn't even realize that he already removed my robe. I shivered when the cold night breeze kissed my skin because I was only wearing a black lingerie dress. His kisses became rough this time. I let out a soft gasp as unfamiliar sensation started to engulf my entire being. I arched my back when I felt his lips sucking my skin.

Without even thinking and before I realized it, a moan came out of my mouth. That was very unfamiliar that my eyes opened abruptly. My face flushed as I didn't expect it.

He chuckled once again. His lips went up to claim mine. He kissed me roughly, as if he's longing for my lips for a decade.

"Damn it... You're really turning me on..." he murmured.

My lips parted when he stopped all of a sudden but then my heart thumped aggressively as he held my hand and pulled me inside... to my bed. If this is how he wants it to happen, I'll be happy to give in... But knowing Evan... He'd only kiss me endlessly until we're both sated. That's how he wants it to be. He's saving my purity until we get married.
