The Billion Dollar Contract

Chapter 11

Gabriel sat in his office wondering why Nicole had told him she loved him.

Was it because she was excited? Or was that her way of saying thank you? Or maybe someone was there, but even if there was a maid there she needed not to worry because his maids are discreet. Well, he was the only one who knew that information, Nicole didn't. He was glad the issue of shopping had been dealt with, and now he could get back to work.

Nicole asked the maid to tell the chauffeur to get the limo ready, she also told her to take off her working uniform and dress in something casual because she would be accompanying her. The girl's face immediately lit up at that information then she hurriedly left the room to do as she was told while Nicole started getting dressed. She straightened her hair and applied some makeup before putting on the trench coat.

Nicole smiled at the thought of what happened a while ago. Gabriel was really smart, she thought to herself. He was a gentleman in his way.

After she was done getting dressed, she went into his study and found the credit card on his desk just as he had told her. She came out of the mansion and noticed that the maid was already outside waiting for her and so was the chauffeur, this chauffeur was different from the one who had brought her here, he was much younger and quite handsome. Gabriel did a great job, his employees were all good-looking.

Nicole got into the limo and the maid got in after her before the chauffeur started to drive.

While on their way to the boutique, she got to know the maid's name, she was Mandy by name. Nicole also got to know that the maids who worked for the Harrisons had been doing that for generations. Mandy's parents and grandparents had all worked for the family, which was vital information, so they were also like family to the  Harrison but at the same time they knew their boundaries.

Mandy suggested one of the best designer boutiques to Nicole and advised that she did her shopping there because Gabriel's mom usually did her shopping at the same boutique whenever she was in New York. Nicole couldn't believe her eyes when they got into the boutique, it was huge. She never imagined in her entire life that she would one day shop in this sort of place. They were welcomed by a receptionist who assigned two girls to help Nicole out with her shopping.

Nicole picked new pairs of Victoria secret's underwear, dozens of them, some sexy nightwear, mini dresses, new pairs of denim, evening dresses, blouses, tank tops, jumpsuits, shoes, just any beautiful thing that caught her eyes. She also got some dresses for Mandy who couldn't contain her excitement, she couldn't believe that she was going to own some designer dresses.

By the time they were done, Nicole had shopped a truck full of clothes, she didn't mind since Gabriel had told her she could buy as much as she wanted besides he was the one who ordered that her former things should be thrown away. She decided to change into one of the dresses she had bought, she chose to wear a black strapless mini peplum dress with black platform heels. After looking at the mirror and being satisfied with her look, she thought about paying Gabriel a visit to his office. Nicole asked Mandy to return home with the truck of clothes while she went to Gabriel's office.

  Gabriel had just finished discussing with his college friend and company lawyer Charles Morris. He was seeing him off when the elevator opened revealing Nicole, she was wearing a short dress exposing her legs. She had beautiful long legs, the dress hugged her body tightly showing off her curves. 'She looked sexy in the dress' Gabriel thought to himself but most of all he was shocked to see her here.

How did she know where his company was?

"Hey baby," Nicole said with a smile.

Gabriel couldn't bring out any words because he was beyond surprised to see her. Before he could get himself together to say something Nicole placed her lips on his, surprising him even more. He had no choice but to kiss back.

God, her lips were so soft!

"I just got into New York, so I thought I should pay you a surprise visit," she said pulling away from the kiss. At that point, Charles cleared his throat indicating that he was still present, his action brought Gabriel out of his trance.

"Um, Charles..." For the first time in Gabriel's life, he was at a loss for words. Charles patiently waited for his friend to say what he wanted to say.

"Um, this... This is Nicole Robinson... My fiancee"

Charles wasn't expecting that. When did Gabriel get engaged without letting him know? He couldn't hide the look of surprise on his face but he had to compose himself.

"Hi, I'm Charles Morris, Gabriel's best friend" Charles managed to say taking Nicole's hand for a handshake

"It's nice to meet you" Nicole replied with a bright smile, Charles couldn't help but smile back.

'This lady was beautiful with an incredible body, one to die for, no wonder Gabriel got her engaged. She was a keeper' Charles thought to himself, he then turned to Gabriel giving him a hard look. Gabriel knew he had some serious explaining to do.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Gabe," he said to his friend before turning back to Nicole

"It was a pleasure meeting you and I must say,  you're really beautiful," he complimented. Nicole couldn't help but blush at his compliment.

"Thank you," she replied with a small voice.

"If you both will excuse me," Charles said before getting inside the elevator.

Gabriel turned around and noticed all his employees on that floor staring at them. They couldn't conceal their surprise at seeing their boss with a woman.

'This is just great, the news is going to spread before the end of the day. Just what he needed.' he thought.

Gabriel suddenly became angry but wasn't showing it at least not here or now. He placed his hand on Nicole's lower back guiding her to his office.
