Perfect disguise by Elizabeth A (cheapest way to read ebooks TXT) 📕

Diana's POV.

Dominic really changed after the night I confronted him. He called usually, checking up on me. We narrated our daily activities and made jokes about those things that bothered us in our life. Dominic joked about how Chloe was starting to flirt with his roommate, Kenneth. I wasn't surprised though. Kenneth was a jovial person and easy to get along with, but he gossiped a lot. Chloe's dirty laundry would soon be let out if she made advances towards him. We were as close as before, but this time we weren't disguising or trying to fool people with our relationship. We were truly dating. At least, we are attempting to. 

He hadn't really gotten over Annie and I wasn't going to rush him. Heartbreak takes time to heal and I was just glad he was willing to open his heart to me. 

We didn't have any reasons to disguise anymore. Liam would travel back to his country the day after we launch our new collections and there seemed to be love blooming between him and Sasha, my fellow senior designer at Modern Mode. We rarely saw each other and from the look of it, it seemed we both moved on. Also, Chloe was no longer giving Dominic a hard time at work. I assumed, she finally understood that Dominic wasn't interested in her or maybe she found herself another young sex mate or she just stopped because her husband was suspicious of her. Anyways, I was satisfied Dominic was off her leash whatever her reasons were. 

Richard later went to see my mother since I told him to. She didn't reveal her crime and I didn't know how to tell him everything she did. Chad was a calm and collected man, but I didn't know what he was capable of when he found out about everything. Emily's death affected him mentally and physically. He blamed himself for her death and had distanced himself from everyone. 

I challenged my mother, Ashley, to tell him the truth, but she played the victim and accused me of ruining her reputation.

it was on a weekend. we were taking a stroll in his neighborhood when I suggested we go on a real date. Dominic agreed. I asked Emily for the best places to go on dates and she suggested we have our date on a fancy yacht. It was our first date as a real couple so I agreed. I've wanted to go on a date in a yacht. Most times, I usually sail on a yacht when I was fishing with my father or if I needed solitude.

It would just be me and him on that yacht with the whole world behind us.

"Oh, look at her." Emily's voice rang into my ears. 

She came over to help me select the dress I would wear for the date.

I blinked. "What?"

 She leaned on the vanity and pointed the makeup brush at my face. "You have this lovey-dovey look on your face. I'm certain you are thinking of him, right now."

I smiled awkwardly and looked at my reflection. "Is that obvious?"

She nodded. "Yeah, you look deeply in love."

I smiled and applied lip gloss on my lips. I had been waiting for this moment for a long time and it was finally here. It felt so good to believe. 

"I just find it hard to believe we are going on a date," I said dreamily.

Emily frowned, confused. "Hmm, that's strange. I thought you two were dating."

I sighed and picked up my hair brush. "Well, it is complicated."

"You are good at making things look complicated."

I averted my eyes from the mirror and glanced at her, lowering the brush from my hair.

 "You won't understand. We were dating and at the same time not really dating," I said and continued brushing my hair.

She pursed her lips and scratched her hair. "That is very confusing."

"I told you you won't understand."

She waved her hands and sat beside me. "Never mind, I just want you to be happy. So, I don't need to understand anything as long as he makes you happy."

I pouted trying to look touched. "Aw, you sound like my mother."

"That's a lie. Your mom will never say such a thing."

I stared at the hair brush, lost in thoughts. She was right, my mother won't say such words. She only cared about how I could be of use to her.

I forced a smile and nodded. 

"That's true."
