He took her to a fancy restaurant. They sat on a table in the corner where there was no crowd. A waitress came to take order. Isabella could not help but notice that the waitress was wearing a uniform that was exposing everything and the looks she was giving to Zander. She wasn't pleased with that.
  She looked towards Zander and he was staring Isabella. The intensity of his gaze made Isabella's cheeks red. She quickly looked towards the menu. Zander chuckled. "How can I help you sir.?" Waitress asked Zander tried to divert his attention towards her. Couldn't she see me? Isabella frowned. "My fiancé will order." Zander replied still looking at Isabella. Isabella was shocked. The disappointment  on waitress face gave immense relief to Isabella for an unknown reason. After taking order, waitress went away.

    Isabella was waiting for Zander to taunt her. She couldn't look up. Her eyes were becoming watery. She was playing with her hands. Zander was noticing her anxiety. He sighed.

  "How are you?" Zander asked. She looked at him , uncertain. "F--fine." She replied meekly. "Look Isabella, whatever happened before just leave it behind. I want us to live a happy life together. Do you get it?" He was trying to be polite. Isabella noticed. "Ok" she didn't have another option. "Tell me about yourself." Zander tried to initiate conversation.

  "I --there is nothing s-special."  She said still looking at her hands. "Trust me, there is." He said with unknown emotions in his eyes. Isabella couldn't look away. She kept looking in his eyes for which felt like eternity. Zander cleared his throat. She quickly looked away. Her cheeks heated up in embarrassment.

  "I am 21 years old." Isabella said. "I know" Zander uttered looking at her. "I graduated in accounting and finance from Milan University." She again said. "I know." Again the same reply.

  "I like--cooking, baking and reading." She said in a low voice. "I know." Now Isabella was irritated. "When you know everything why are you asking me." Zander shook his head smiling. She looked like an angry kitten. She frowned. What was funny??.

  "I want you to be comfortable with me." Zander stated. "Oh!" Was all Isabella said. "Tell me something personal about you." He asked. "I have only one friend Chiara, and I like yellow colour. I am quiet , simple and shy. There are no secrets I have." She said thoughtfully. True to his words she was feeling comfortable around him.

"Why yellow?" He asked. "Most of girls do like pink and purple, but for me yellow is a colour that signals hope, life and happiness. I can smile only by looking at yellow colour." 
She told him.
"And I was your first kiss.that I know." Zander said smirking. Isabella's face heated up. She chocked on her own saliva. The waitress came and served. Isabella thanked God for saving her from more embarrassment.

   "What about you---?"  Isabella couldn't help but ask. She was curious too. "I was born to be the most successful business man of the world and that's what I am." He said with an attitude. Mysterious! Isabella thought. "What----what about____."  She didn't know how to ask such a personal question.

  "Bianca was my girlfriend. We were together for a year but she cheated on me. It was relationship just with mutual benefits. I wanted sex. She wanted fame." He said non-chantly. Isabella turned red on his blunt explanation. She was shocked. How did he know about her question.? Did he also want such relationship with her?Her face lost its colour.

"But with you ,it's different. We are bounded for forever now. So don't over think." Zander clarified. How did he know what was she thinking? She was shocked again.

  The rest of the dinner was silent. When the car stopped in front of the mansion. She asked. "Don't you want to come in.?" Zander smiled at her. "No I am going back. I came here for some wedding arrangements." He replied and held her arm. She winced. "What happened?" He rolled up her sleeve. "N-nothi-ng" she tried to pull her arm back  "Who did this?" He demanded angrily. "I---i fell -down." She replied still trying to pull her arm back "When?"  Zander asked suspiciously "That day" she mumbled under her breath. Zander kissed her bandages. He then pulled out a box from his coat pocket. He took out a beautiful expensive diamond ring and put it in her finger.  "it's an engagement ring. And ----I am sorry,my Bella"   he whispered and kissed the back of her hand.

She couldn't look up at him . She was blushing so hard. The arrogant man said those words first time in his. She quickly said a 'goodbye' and went out of the car.

He leaned back on his car's seat. "What are you doing to me, Bella " he asked himself,placing a hand in his heart.
