Billionaire's Pleasure-Chapter 66: Sebastian’s Feelings

Sebastian’s POV

It’s my birthday today and here I am working in my office, it looks like just an ordinary day for me. What do I want to do on my birthday? I just want to see and talk to Stella. I miss her so much. I miss looking at her attractive face...her kissable lips. I miss talking to her.

"Mr. Sebastian, Mr. Edward is here, can he come into your office? " Geisel’s opening question.

"Yes, please, let him in," I replied.

"Okay, Mr. Sebastian, " Geisel said.

I saw Edward enter my office carrying a wine.

"Hey, Sebastian! Happy birthday! " Edward greeted me.

"Hey, thank you, you were the first person who greets me," I replied.

"Why? Aren’t you still talking to Stella? " Edward said as he handed me the bottle of wine.

"Not yet," I simply replied.

"I see, how about your dad? Hasn’t he greeted you yet? "

"Not yet, I’m actually surprised and he didn’t greet me early today because he was often the first to greet me and then Louis," I said.

"Maybe he’s taking care of something important right now."

"Maybe, especially right now in this situation."

"So, where are we later on your birthday? I know there is a new bar near here, we can chill and drink there with Andrew and Nicholas, "said Edward.

"Um... I’m not sure yet, I’m still finishing my work for today." I said.

"Work again? Come on, bro! It’s your birthday today; it’s okay to chill sometimes. "

Edward just looked at me with a smile that is why I could do nothing but agree with him.

"Okay, let’s go after work," I said.

"Great. See you later; I’ll message you the location later. "

"Okay, are you leaving right away?"

"Yes, I also have work to finish. I just want to invite you because I know a lot of trouble has been on your mind lately. "

"Right. By the way, thank you, Edward. "

"Welcome. Bye. See you later. "

When Edward left immediately, I called Geisel immediately.

"Yes, Mr. Sebastian?"

"Geisel, do I have a meeting today?"

"For today, you have no meeting Mr. Sebastian. "

"Good. By 6 p.m. I’m leaving the office, I’ll be out with Edward, Nicholas, and Andrew, you take care of the office, if you need anything, just message me or call me. "

"Okay, Mr. Sebastian. Will you celebrate your birthday later? "

"How do you know it’s my birthday today?"

"Mr. Sebastian, I’ve been your secretary for a long time and even if you didn’t celebrate your birthday, I still know when it is. By the way, Mr. Sebastian, happy birthday. Enjoy your day. "

"Thank you, Geisel, I appreciated it. You are the second person who greets me. "

"Hasn’t Ms. Stella greeted you yet?"

"No, we haven’t gotten along yet. We haven’t even talked to each other. "

"Does Ms. Stella, know that it’s your birthday today?"

"I think she knows it. But if she’s not ready to talk to me, I just have to understand that. "

"I hope you and Ms. Stella could get along because I know you miss her so much."

"Very much, if you only knew Geisel," I said and I just sighed.

"I have to go now, Mr. Sebastian. If you need anything else, just call me. "

"Alright, Geisel. Thank you. "

I spent my time in front of my laptop. I finished the ones that had to be finished from work. When I was sure I had finished what I had to finish today I checked my wristwatch and it is almost 6 p.m. So, I packed my things and left the office.

I got in my car and Edward sent me the location of the bar. I immediately went to the location Edward told me. A few minutes later, I arrived at the place. It looks like this place is new because I only saw this place just now. When I opened the door of the bar, there were almost no people and only dim lights were inside the bar. I took my phone out of my pocket then I tried calling Edward. The phone rang three times before he answered it.

"Hello, Edward?"

"Hello, Sebastian."

"Where are you? I’m already here at the bar that you told me about but there are no people here. What’s going on here?

"Sit there at the table for a while and wait a few minutes, someone will approach you."

"What? What are you talking about? Are you pranking me, Edward? "

"No, just trust what I said, relax there for a while."

I was about to speak when Edward suddenly ended the call so I had no choice but to follow his instructions. I sat at a table and waited for someone to approach me. Just a few minutes later, someone suddenly patted my back and I was shocked to see Stella. I suddenly stood up in my seat and hugged her tightly.

"Stella, is that really you?" I asked her.

"I still don’t look true to you?" Stella said while smiling.

"I thought I would never see you again, I missed you so much. How are you?"

"I am fine. Let’s sit down first? "

"Okay, are you the one who set it up this thing?"

"Yes, I talked to Edward about it. It’s good that you agreed to his invitation. "

"Yes, it’s good and I agreed because if I didn’t agree I wouldn’t see you today."

I saw Stella smile somehow at what I said.

"How are you? How’s the searching for Louis? "

"Here, I am still busy with work while it’s good that the detective has found out Louis’s location, we’re planning how to get him there."

"Well then, I’m glad there’s somehow a good improvement in finding Louis."

"Yea, by the way, Carla told me, you live with Sam’s condo right now. Is that true? "

"Yes, it’s true what Carla said to you, that’s where I live now..."

"I know that he treated you well."

"Of course, He is very kind to me. By the way ... I want to say something important to you. "

"What is that?" I asked.

"I already know Elaine..."

I was suddenly stunned by what Stella told me. I don’t know if what I heard from her was right.

"Excuse me?"

"I said, I already know who is Elaine... we also talked on the phone."

"How? How did you know her? "

"Because of his brother."

"His brother? Are you referring to David? "

"Yes."

"And how did you meet David?"

"He’s Sam’s friend, he was surprised when he heard me mention your name while I was talking to Sam."

"I see, So, you seem to know all about my past already."

"She was your wife for 3 years and I also know that you both had a child but she died after Elaine gave birth to her because she was a premature baby."

"You’re right."

"What’s the reason why you didn’t tell me those things? Do you think that I will not accept you when I find out about them? "

"I am afraid of what can happen in our relationship once you find out about it. And I don’t want us to be like my relationship with Elaine. "

"So, that is the reason why you don’t want to start your own family because you’re afraid of repeating what happened to you and Elaine?"

"It’s not easy to forget what happened to the two of us. She has been a big part of my life, Stella."

"How about me? Am I a big part of your life? Why is it so hard for you to include me in your life? Remember, Sebastian, I’m not Elaine! I’m different from her and that doesn’t mean that she did leaves you, I will do the same thing as well. "

"She got tired of me, Stella. Do you know how difficult that is? Do you know how hard it is to accept that I am no longer loved by the person I care the most? Especially, when she handed me the divorce papers and asked me if I could sign it. Do you know how painful it is to hear that coming from her? As if it were so easy for her to let go of those words... as if she could easily forget the three years we had been together as a married couple. That hasn’t been easy for me, Stella, I’ve been thinking about that for months whether I should sign it or not. I also talked to dad and Louis regarding that and they said that I need to let her go because she is no longer happy with me. It hurts so much to accept that, and then I just found out that after our divorce, she suddenly went to Italy. I can’t forget about it, especially the pain she gave me. I know I made a mistake as well but she’s the one who gave up on our relationship. So you can’t help me to think that it might happen again. "
