The mask guy
Author’s POV
The party had already started and raven was waiting patiently for Stephen, her boss. She thought he wasn’t going to attend the birthday party since he had taken lots of time to come.
Pondering where he could be, she decides to give him a call just to know his whereabouts so she could know what he’s up to and how to find her way out of this place after the party is finally over.
“Is Anything wrong? What’s the problem?” Her mother shrugged at her on seeing the Apprehension which was running through her body. “I’m fine Mother”.
She spoke out with a fake smile although she was missing Stefan who she had thought was going to be here not knowing that he lied to her. he wasn’t even picking her calls at the moment and very soon, the party will end since they’ve started giving him gifts and sharing cakes and other things.
Stefan, who had gone to change his clothes, showed up in front of everyone looking extremely handsome. Stefan pulled everyone’s attention with his presence.
Everyone turns to look at him and the ground becomes more noisy when they realize who he was. Of course he was Stephen Which they all know him to be. He was the CEO of MSS cosmetics company. He was the most handsome man they could ever see right now.
A smile crept through Raven’s lips the moment she sighted him walking majestically towards her direction. “Finally!!” She muttered to herself with a smile roaming through her face. Stefan waves at some people already seated in chairs as he makes his way towards Harper Black who was currently seated and exchanges pleasantries with him before going to sit close to Raven who was just blushing to herself. “Did you call me on the phone?” Stefan shrugged at her the moment he was fully seated on the chair with everybody’s eyes rotating on him.
“No!!” She replied rapidly at him with her gaze narrowed to the front. She was avoiding his gaze since she doesn’t know what will happen the moment their eyes come encountered with each other.
“But I saw your miscall Raven. You called me twice. Why are you lying?”
At this moment, Raven didn’t know what to say in order for him to believe her because she doesn’t want him to know that she cares about him. “The first dress you were putting on looked really good on you though. why do you have to change it?” Raven Knew she needed to change the subject of Their conversation so he can forget all about what she just said and that happened the moment he looks at her with the most satisfied smile ever.
“Do you really love the first dress that much? Why didn’t you tell me? If you had told me this I wouldn’t have bothered myself wearing this but I guess I was a little too bothered Because I just want to look good for that particular lady this evening”.
Raven’s eyes widened open the moment she heard him saying those words as a spirit of sadness built up in her face.
So he has a girlfriend and she was just here crushing on him since? Who was that lucky girl that he had? She thought and decided to look away from him sadly, trying to stop herself from falling hard on him as she didn’t want to cry later. Not after finding out that he has a lady who was behind his smiles.
Stefan looked around, in the midst of everyone and found Jenny who also came. Unfortunately, Jenny had been looking at Him since and he guesses she might have suspected him to be someone she knows. He went up to make this big announcement to Harper Black and introduce himself as the CEO of MSS cosmetics company and he later accepted Harper’s invitation to cooperate together.
Harper Black was happy to hear Stefan’s announcement and he also advertised his business in front of his friends who had come to his birthday party so they could come and invite him. Harper Black was thrilled to see his only daughter Raven who had come to celebrate with him on this special day, Katherine on the other hand have been observing Raven and STEFAN acts Together and that was when he came to realize that raven was in love with this Young man who happens to be the CEO of the popular company in new York..
“I do hope this man wouldn’t play your daughter like Stefan did to him. I just hope she won’t be heartbroken later because they seem to be in love with each other”. Katherine tells Harper her opinion not knowing that it was Stefan she was talking about. “He seems to remind me of Stefan. I have missed him so much and do hope I will get to see him one day. Just to know how he has been doing Ever since that fetal accident happened to him”. Stefan Found the two of them glaring at him as he smiled at them awkwardly and waved at them. “You see he’s just so jovial and respectful. I do hope Raven wouldn’t let this one go away because he’s the perfect match for her”. Harper Black shrugged at her playfully and that was when Katherine., his mother hit his leg for Saying such words.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“How could you say such a thing? Why can’t you pray for your daughter to marry a big politician or a governor who will make her proud and give her everything she wants
