259 259. Happy birthday
Nicole was wearing a stylish off shoulder silver gown with a side slit, exposing her slender left leg a little.
Her hairs were curled, looking shorter than their actual length while her lips were painted in a deep shade of maroon. Overall she gave more of a mature and bold vibe.
Though she had a tired look on her face, showing that she had just finished the birthday party.
Sle lazily slumped down on the sofa, kicking her heels away.
“God! This is so tiresome!!” She cried out to herself.
She closed her eyes and rested her head on the sofa when her phone ringed, making her take a look at the caller.
“Could you please come out of your house?” Victor’s voice could be heard from the other side.
“Now?” Nicole asked in a stupefied voice, her eyes bulging out a little.
“Yes. Please.” Victor said in his masculine voice.
Nicole stood up, without ending the call, and directly started walking towards her door, without even wearing her sandals.
As soon as she opened the door, she could see Victor standing near the trunk of his car, his back facing her and the camera.
He was once again wearing an all black outfit, but this time he was wearing a black windbreaker and black jeans paired with black sweatshirt.
Even his hair looked a little disheveled from behind, his locks flowing with the wind.
In fact his back itself was enough to leave the females imagining a super handsome face with a model body.
Nicole quietly walked towards him, before going and standing in front of him. Victor was still back facing the camera.
“Happy Birthday!!” Victor said before turning a little, without giving much of his appearance and opening the car trunk.
As soon as the trunk opened, Nicole could see a beautiful cake placed in the center with decorations done in the entire trunk.
There were letters saying ‘HAPPY BIRTHDAY’ hung from one end to another, balloons in shades of red and rose petals as well.
Nicole instantly gasped at the sight, not expecting this.
She was still registering all of this when Victor bent in one knee, taking out a box from his hand before opening it.
“I love you.” He said as his voice itself was enough to convey all the emotions that he wanted to show.
Nicole was stunned, speechless, frozen. Never did she imagine this to ever happen. Then her sight went to the box that Victor had extended in front of her.
“How did you know I wanted this?” Nicole asked, fully surprised after looking at her favorite bracelet in the box.
The camera was then zoomed on the bracelet before reverting back to the couple.
“I saw you looking at the jewelry section after our deal. I went and saw the piece that they had kept for display. Thus I purchased it.” Victor said, while a flashback of Victor watching the city from a glass window was played.
“I didn’t know you were watching.” Nicole said, scratching her head a little.
“Thankfully I did. And luckily this turned out to be a couple set. So do you love me?” Victor asked, slight nervousness visible from his body language.
“Of course I do!!” Nicole said, while kneeling down to Victor’s level. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
With that, Victor placed the bracelet around Nicole’s wrist and she did the same for him, while Nicole was all smiles for the entire time.
“CUT!!” The director said, happy with the results.
This way the entire shoot ended without revealing Victor’s face even once.
“You both did a good job.” Kizy said, sincerely praising them both for their professional skills.
“Is that really you!! When did you take acting lessons??” Harry said, literally standing up from his seat like a spring.
“Thank you Kizy!” Nicole replied after watching her entire performance, which she felt was very satisfying.
“Let’s head back home now.” Victor said, without paying any attention to Harry’s comment.
“No. I have some work left at the office. You go ahead.” Kizy said, getting up from her seat.
“You are coming or should I report this to Jason? I am sure he won’t allow you to leave the house for at least the next three days.” Victor said, his voice all cool and calm, yet enough to intimidate anyone, except Kizy who could see the affection behind it.
Harry chuckled a little, but was instantly silenced by Kizy’s glare.
“Okay.” She said, a little unwillingly.
“Good.” Victor said before marching towards the changing room in large strides.
“I will head back to the parking lot. Come fast.” Harry said before leaving.
“He is so intimidating at times! I feel like I have met a whole new person!!” Nicole said from behind, after making sure that Victor was gone.
“Yeah he can be real scary at times. But it is very rare. Usually he is so quiet that you won’t even suspect his presence.” Kizy said before turning towards Nicole.
“I could see that you were seriously stunned at his sudden change in demeanor.” Kizy said.
“Yeah. I was kind of shocked to see that sudden unexpected change. But I can see that he truly cares for you.” Nicole said, a smile appearing on her face.
“He is caring towards all his members. That is how the first brother has always been. His past encounters had made him into what he is today.” Kizy said, looking towards the direction of the changing room, as if thinking about some sad past.
“His past?” Nicole asked, curious to know what exactly Victor faced.
“He has gone through a lot. His-” Kizy was still speaking when Victor came out of the room, and Kizy came out of her dazed state, realizing that she was about to touch a critical topic.
“His?” Nicole probed.
“Nothing. First brother is here.” Kizy said before getting up.
“Let’s go.” Victor said once he was back.
“This blazer?” Kizy asked, looking at the blazer that Victor had wrapped around her.
