Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Make it natural
"Oh? Going public rather quickly, aren’t we?" Alex raised his brow. He was trying to hold his grin as he asked, "What is this? Are you impatient to let the world know about us?"
"Oh, stop being so cheesy," Eve rolled her eyes. "Nobody’s going public, since my target is Pierre, and nobody else. Since he keeps telling me he has his father as a backing, I want him to see that I also have mine—you. You are my backing, Alexander Langford."
Eve’s answer didn’t deter his interest. In fact, he was even more interested in knowing that Eve was using him as her weapon against Pierre.
"Well, it is about time you use me. I was thinking about laying out a plan to make sure that Pierre wouldn’t be able to lift his head anymore. Besides, I do have some personal grudges against his father as well," Alex said. "But I’ll follow your instructions for now, and yes, I will meet Pierre again at an event."
"Great. When would that be?" Eve asked. She guessed that it might be some kind of business event or some sort, maybe club event.
Alex smiled mysteriously, and replied slowly and clearly, "Family gathering."
...
"You can’t be serious."
"I am one hundred percent serious," Alex assured. "It’ll be held in my family’s golf club here, in Los Angeles. Most of my family are from overseas, and they have their schedule for the end of the year. This is our unofficial ’early Christmas celebration’."
Eve was stunned.
She had been dating Alex for five years, and she had never known his real family.
Alex told him back then that he was basically an orphan since his mother was a bitch, just like hers. Now that she had to face his real family, there was a feeling of fear and a chill that ran down her spine.
She knew that the Langfords were those typical old-money families that came straight out of the medieval era. She researched about them a bit after she broke up with Alex and realized that he was FAR richer than she expected.
They were already powerful, but what made them even more powerful was the current patriarch, Hugh Langford. He propelled the already powerful family to a new height that 99% of people in this world would never achieve.
And behind him, was his mysterious son—until now, of course, because Alex had finally shown himself in the public as a rising actor with marvelous acting and an even better family background.
’Can I even talk with them? What if they look down on me because of my background—wait, do they know about my background? Did Alex tell them about it?’ Eve stared at Alex silently, but her suspicious gaze made Alex chuckle in response.
"Relax, I didn’t tell them anything about you and your background. I led a pretty private life when we were dating. Nobody in my family knows," Alex assured. "Though, I’m still not sure how Pierre knows about us. That bum is usually as useless as one can get. So, I’ll have to investigate further."
"Is that so?" Eve squinted her eyes at him suspiciously.
"You’d have been approached by a few of my uncles and aunts if they knew," Alex added, which was the assurance that Eve needed.
"Okay, that’s a relief," Eve said as she relaxed her gaze. "I mean, it’d have been so funny if the heir of a billions of dollar family fortune dated a whore’s daughter, you’d be the butt of the joke."
Alex scoffed, "Do you think that they will dare to make a joke about me? I can pull whatever funding they have, and they’ll crawl back, begging for mercy."
"Mm, sure, you’d do that for me," Eve chuckled as she genuinely didn’t believe that. "I was thinking about giving Pierre a bit of shock when seeing us together, but now that your whole family will be present, I guess that means we have to pretend to be lovers."
"And that would be easy, right? We’ve dated for five years, and know everything about each other. So, just make it as natural as usual," Alex said. "I’m sure Pierre will be even more shocked because you’d be the first woman I ever bring to a family function."
"That’s even better," Eve grinned. "I want to know what he will do next after we show up together."
Alex didn’t pay much attention to his cousin and the rest of his family, but most of them were nothing but deadweight that had to be supported, so giving them a gentle slap in the face would be good entertainment.
"So, when will this family function take place?" Eve asked.
"Three days from now. We’ll go together, and I’ll make sure that Pierre will attend the function," Alex said. He got up and then stood right in front of her. He leaned down, and pinched Eve’s chin, gently lifting her head so their eyes met. "And you. You and I need to make it as natural as possible because my father will be there."
Eve gulped as she clenched her dress.
She was nervous, though she was unsure whether her nervousness came from Alex or the fact that she would meet with Alex’s real father soon.
"And what I mean by natural is..." Alex gently brushed her lower lip with his thumb. He leaned deeper and planted a soft kiss on her lips.
Just as Eve expected, his kiss turned passionate in just a second, and the supposedly ’gentle kiss’ turned into a hot one.
Eve pushed him away after a while and wiped her lips while glaring at him, "That’s not natural, dumbass. That’s a kiss when someone wants to fuck!"
"I never said I don’t want it," Alex chuckled. "But you got it, right? Just be as natural as possible."
"You are the unnatural one!" Eve complained. "Ugh, why do you keep kissing me like that anyway? What if you lost control in front of your family? They’d think so lowly of me!"
