They arrived at a hotel, where Yohan wanted to rent one of the large and very expensive halls there.
He said that there would be a lot of his friends and invited guests coming later, so he needed a big room and the best service.
"I want the best service and also all the things that you have in this hotel. Because it's not only my friends who are coming, but also my business partners and other business people who might be impressed by my birthday party. So they will decide to work with me," he explained.
He then turned to Claudia and touched her arm.
"You know what I mean, baby?"
Claudia smiled at him and touched Yohan's arm. "Oh I totally understand, honey."
"Then what about King Afton's room? It's the biggest room in the hotel and also the most luxurious. We also have services for decorations and all the services needed for your birthday party, Mr. Yohan," said the hotel manager.
They went to the room named King Afton and it was indeed very large.
Yohan smiled with satisfaction and he could imagine what his lavish birthday party would be like this year.
"It's going to be a great party. I will feel very happy if it goes well," he said.
"Oh I'm so sure of that. And I will make sure that you will have the party of your life and you will be surprised by it," Claudia said softly.
Seeing Claudia's attitude soften again, Yohan was sure that Claudia was just trying to upset him to get more attention.
'I knew she would melt down again if I called her pretty or was gentle with her. What a bitch,' he thought.
Claudia then turned to the manager and said that she wanted all the best things in the hotel for her lover's party.
"It's Yohan's 23rd birthday, so I want the best for him. If it makes him happy, why not?"
"For the price that Mr. Yohan wants including this room, it costs $65,000. Everything is complete with the cost of the room, the best service and food as well as a photographer who will capture the moments of his birthday," the manager explained.
Hearing the fantastic price, Yohan was a bit surprised but he knew he had to pretend that Claudia was paying for the party.
"It turned out to be quite expensive. I don't think I'll book this room and the expensive service. I don't have that kind of money right now, because I'm growing my company and the $200 million project hasn't been completed yet," he said in a tone that pretended to be sad.
He glanced at Claudia, who was listening silently, and took her arm.
"I think we should celebrate at my house this year. I..."
When Yohan intended to pull her away, Claudia held his hand and shook her head while smiling gently.
"No need to worry about the cost, I'll pay for you," she said.
"Really? You don't have to bother to do it because I don't want to burden you," said Yohan who was still pretending that he was sad.
However, Claudia assured that she would pay for everything as Yohan wanted.
"You are my lover, so I will do my best for you," she said again.
In his heart, Yohan was happy that Claudia fell for his act and would pay for the party the way Yohan wanted all along. He didn't have to pay much for it and Claudia would handle everything.
"Thank you so much! I promise you that I will reimburse all your money after my project is finished. Maybe the project will also bring good news and I can marry you someday," Yohan said while holding Claudia's hands.
Of course, this made the hotel manager happy because it meant they would get quite a lot of money from the party.
He immediately asked his men to get the agreement letter and payment.
Claudia opened her wallet and took out her credit card. In front of Yohan, Claudia paid the entire bill for his birthday, including some extras that made the party cost $70,000.
After the transaction, they left the hotel and Yohan was looking forward to his birthday party in three days.
"How about before we go home, we go to lunch together? I'll pay for lunch," the man said kindly, trying to contain his excitement at having used Claudia for his own pleasure.
"No problem, I think I still have time to have lunch with you," Claudia replied.
She then sent a message to Davion that she couldn't come today to bring him lunch.
[Ms. Claudia]
I'm sorry I couldn't make it today. I'll bring your favorite chicken mushroom soup tomorrow instead. Don't forget to eat lunch just because I'm not around.
Davion who read the message could only be silent, then he let out a small sigh as if there was a feeling of disappointment that Claudia could not come.
But he respected her time and was also busy, so Davion only replied that he would have lunch after his work was done.
Even so, he glanced at his watch and saw that it was already lunch time. Looking at the empty chair in front of him and the table that only contained document files, Davion felt a bit lonely because Claudia was usually here with her homemade food.
He tried to refocus on his work but his stomach suddenly felt hungry. Since he was used to having lunch with Claudia around, Davion couldn't help but feel hungry because when he felt hungry Claudia would be there with delicious food.
"I didn't realize she had such a big impact on my life in the past few months," he muttered.
He then pressed the button of the phone that was connected to Alex outside his room.
"Yes, Mr. Davidson?" answered Alex.
"Bring me two slices tuna sandwiches and a glass of water to my office," Davion said.
"Yes sir!"
Davion leaned back in his chair and leaned his head back. A long sigh could be heard, as if he was so tired of the things that kept bothering his mind.
He didn't want to drown in these feelings, but Davion felt he had fallen too deep.
"He didn't expect that things would go this far. I didn't even expect that she would not only give me her warm food but also this warm feeling."
