Chapter 22
Tessa's POV
Trevor's call was expected but his request to see me wasn't expected. I know this meeting is going to
be about his son, Aidan, and our supposed marriage but I can't help but wonder why he demands to
see me in his private hotel and not his office or home.
My father is extremely mad at Aidan for rejecting me. He suggested that I forget about him but it isn't
an easy task for me.
At first, I thought what I have for Aidan is lust, for how he makes me feel during sex but now I know it is
more than lust. I love the idiot.
My dad told Trevor that I am no longer interested in getting married to his son and he stopped picking
his calls. I tried to let go of my plans to get him in every possible means but the thought of seeing him
someday with some woman made me pick up the interest of getting him no matter what. Father
wouldn't understand. No one will understand how much I love him.
Aidan is everything that I want and need in a man.
My mom is supportive and on my side, she keeps telling me to be patient but I know the saying of the
patient dog eating the fastest bone is nothing but bullshit. I decided to do things on my own, without
seeking my father's help anymore. It was obvious he wouldn't offer any more help.
My dad is a proud man and he believes I will get a good man someday who will value me and accept
me for who I am but the question I keep asking myself is, can I really wait for that day?
Can I really wait for that man when Aidan is in the picture? Can that man make me feel the way I
always feel with Aidan, near him, or when he is inside of me?
I thought getting pregnant would be a good way to hook him down but we aren't even on good terms
with each other and he hasn't touched me ever since I thought of the idea.
If only I can make him have sex with me one more time, just maybe I can get pregnant since I have
gotten rid of the pills I have been using for years.
I might not have my father's support but I know I have that of Trevor, even though I have no idea what
his crippled wife thinks of it all. I don't like her. The last time I saw her was 10 years ago before she
became crippled and my dislike for her started that year.
Trevor organized a party and invited my parents. Dad went on a business trip to Mexico so mom went
to the party with me.
I was bored, so I decided to do something fun. I saw a cute boy looking at me and we begin to make
out in front of the washroom. I was just 15 years old then.
Aidan's mother saw us and she scolded me harshly. I told her to mind her business and she slapped
me. I cried to mom but mom did nothing. I began to despise her since then. I never knew I was going to
fall in love with her son someday, I never knew she had a son.
I step out of the Range Rover that pulled over in front of the hotel. I am wearing pointed high heels,
with a short flared skirt and white top. I have sunshades on with red lipstick on my lips. I remove the
sunshade with my long manicured fingers and look around.
I turn to face the driver from the window of the car. "You can go, Sammy. I will find my way back home."
"Ok, ma'am", he nods in reply and zooms off.
I smile to myself. I don't know how long I am going to stay there with Trevor but I have plans on going
out to a party later. It's been so long since I acted wild, I missed that.
I have been depriving myself of good sex since the rejection from Aidan, all I do is masturbate and it is
fucking annoying. I feel it is pure torture, father was restricting me from going out because he thinks I
will go beg Aidan.
I will have to visit Zoe after this meeting so we can go shopping and go to a party, I grin at the thought.
Zoe is my friend and we have a lot in common. She is as crazy as I am.
I walk elegantly into the hotel. The receptionist smiles at me and directs me to the suite where Trevor
was waiting for me.
She ask me to go to the last floor before I can say anything. Trevor must have informed her that I was
coming.
I move swiftly with my heels making the clack sound on the floor. When I am on the last floor, I see the
suite number given to me directly in front of me.
I smile and walk towards it. I knock softly before entering. I see Trevor sitting on the massive bed with
his laptop.
"Hello, Tessa", he beams at me, with open arms ready to embrace.
"Hi Trevor", I reply as we embrace.
He releases me and peers at me inquisitively. The smile on his face reminds me so much of Aidan. The
resemblance is too much to ignore.
I wish it is Aidan hugging me now, I say inwardly.
"Trevor?" He asks with a short laugh. I know what he is talking about. He is asking why I am using his
first name now.
I shrug. "I just thought it's best to go on first names now that I will soon be your daughter-in-law."
He chuckles lightly. "I see."
He places his hand on my back and leads me to the sofa beside the bed, close to the window where he
is seeing the view of the street. As I sit with legs crossed, he slumps to the one opposite mine.
"How have you been, Tessa?" He asks with concern.
I shrug indifferently. "I guess fine."
He nods. "I'm sure you already know why I called you here." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Maybe or maybe not", I answer. "but I have a feeling it's because of Aidan."
"Yes." He grins. "How much do you love my son and want to be married to him?" He leans forward.
"Very much", I didn't want to sound desperate.
"Very much", he emphasizes. "Are you willing to do anything to make the marriage between you two
possible?"
I don't know what he means by that but I feel this is the exact opportunity I need.
"Yes, I can", I reply firmly.
