Chapter 585 - Cute Little Prince



Once Shawn soothed his throat, he speechlessly looked at Dax. If he had fallen for somebody, he would be the first one to get happy, his family would be cheering him to get his love.

He didn't like he was getting physically attracted to Shea who he had slept with, who he considered as a friend, who he will have to take care of her safety until she has somebody by her side or leaves Mocon.

For him, it was always about one night, he never went back to the same girl or thought of any of them even once. He thought he must be recalling her because she was around him, and earning so many questions asking if Shea was his girlfriend. 

No, people actually asked him if he already chose his wife since Shea was close to the family.

Disregarding all that, he didn't want to make Shea uncomfortable at the Rivas mansion. 

Dax grinned sinisterly looking at Shawn, "Shea Morris, isn't she?" 

Even though they had appeared normal, Dax had seen him being happy with Shea. Dax knew him well, even though Shawn was flirty, he wouldn't get close to anybody in such a short time. Much less, he had let his guard down around Shea. Hence he wouldn't be surprised if he had fallen for her.

Shawn breathed deeply and revealed to him, "We didn't know each other when we had a one-night stand."

Dax felt his food stuck in his throat so he calmly drank water. Now he wasn't sure what was happening between the duo. He imagined Shawn and Shea being s*x buddies, first to come to his mind was Aarvi slapping Shawn across his face while controlling Aaron and Nikun's anger. 

Shawn teased seeing him speechless, "CEO Grant, you can thank me for your inarticulateness."

Dax got out of his imaginary world. On positive thinking, "Are you attracted... Only physically?" 

Shawn couldn't believe they were talking about it. "Did you take up Little Heart's job?"

Dax craved to smack Shawn's head on the table, the harder, the better. He gave a piece of advice if it's helpful in any way. 

Damn, why did teasing turn into advice time? He thought.

"Just because you had one night doesn't mean you have to be attracted to her physically. In that case, your thoughts will clear the confusion. How you look at her in your mind is what you feel." Then he got back his food.

Shawn silently ate repeating a line, 'How I look at her in my MIND is what I feel.' After a few seconds, "Isn't it heart?" He asked like a naive little boy.

Dax burst into laughter. Shawn gritted his teeth, hence he doesn't like to talk about these kinds of things with others but Aarvi. 

Pointing at Shawn to wait, Dax opened their group chat. He rummaged through many voice notes and played it, "How cute!" Aarvi's sweet, teasing voice sounded.

Dax said between his another round of laughter, "Dum Dum is right, you are a Cute Little Prince." He played the audio again, "How Cute!"

Shawn: "..."

Always he heard about love and saw the loving couple. He had never been in love. Jordan always mentioned following your heart. Hence he said as the heart. Now hearing Dax laugh at him, he recalled the heart doesn't think, it just feels.

Shawn bent and removed his shoes, Dax who noticed it, grabbed his blazer and ran towards the door, "Bye Cute Little Prince." He teased him as he missed the shooting shoes and laughed at Shawn.

Shawn ignored him and sighed. He didn't want to fret over unnecessary things. He was soon going to take over the company so he wanted to focus on things accordingly.

He left for Rivas Industries when a maid came to clean the villa.

At Spencer house,

Dax reached the Spencer house and honked twice. Not too long, Tia hesitatingly went out with Mrs. Spencer. The latter looked at the window of the expensive car but didn't get a glimpse of Dax due to the tinted glass panel.

She asked Tia as they went towards the gate, "Are you sure he looks after you well? Why didn't he get out of the car to greet you?... If there is no respect, the relationship won't last long." Clearly, she was worried, Tia would get bullied by Dax.

Tia awkwardly laughed hearing Mrs. Spencer, "Dax isn't like that. There are some differences, which we still have to clear. Mom, don't worry about it all."

Dax had no plans to alight the car. But seeing the middle-aged lady escorting Tia, he decided no to be rude as Tia calls her mother.

He alighted the car and saw Mrs. Spencer taken aback for a moment before whispering something to Tia,

"He is indeed CEO Grant." 

Tia chuckled. Mrs. Spencer had thought somebody was fooling Tia. "Mom I had told you Sister Aarvi, right? She is Aarvi Evans, president of Skylar. That's how I met Dax."

They were already at the gate by the end of her words. Mrs. Spencer craned her neck and watched Dax. She didn't like him for being cold, since it was Tia's choice, she didn't comment.

Dax glanced at Tia who quickly introduced, "Dax, she is Mrs. Spencer. My landlady. Mom, Dax… My boyfriend."

Dax nodded at Mrs. Spencer, "Hello, Mrs. Spencer."

Mrs. Spencer had expected him to ignore her so it was kind of a surprise. She flashed a smile in greeting as she let go of Tia to his side. "Please take care of Tia." She didn't speak a lot and wasted their time when they were on the way to the Wells family.

Dax merely nodded, his restrained behavior due to Tia wasn't letting him be normal with her people either. So his face stayed stony, which was kind of scary.

He didn't go to the other side of the car to open the door for Tia, "Take a seat." He said plainly.

Tia let out a feeble hum, she waved her hand, "Bye Mom…" She went to the other side.

Dax faced Mrs. Spencer again. He just wanted to say we will be going but something else played on his lips. "Mrs. Spencer, do you know Tia's real name?"

Tia paused for a second before she got in the car. Mrs. Spencer was confused hearing Dax and gingerly answered as she glanced at Tia who was already in the car. "Tiana Wells, what's wrong?"

Dax understood the reason behind his question after hearing Mrs. Spencer. He was still trying to find a reason to break up with Tia. If Mrs. Spencer had said Tia Spencer as Tiana's identity, he would have assumed Tia wasn't true to anybody.

A kind of relief washed over him before his cold expression relaxed a little, "Thank you for taking care of her as a mother." He slightly nodded his head and got into the car.

Just a line, Mrs. Spencer started seeing him in a new light and smiled brighter. She wasn't able to see inside, yet, waved her hand, when the engine ignited before the car drove away.

She ran inside and took her mobile to message Tia to let her know, she liked Dax a little.

[Dax seems to be a good man. Clear the differences soon and live happily.]

The response came soon. [Mom, did you really pass him so soon!? What magic did he do on you?] 

Mrs. Spencer responded, chuckling at her astonishment, [Don't use the phone much. Don't be afraid while meeting your father. Call me if anything.]

Even though she read Tia's message that she will be alright, Mrs. Spencer was jelly thinking they might make her cry.
