Chapter 67 - Cyrus Confessed!

CH-67

Everyone cleared just like that. "Miss. Benjamin, they left," Cyrus said. 

"Hmm," she responded. 

"Miss, if you leave my embrace we can talk, if you want we can talk in this position too. It's quite good!" Cyrus teased. 

Esther instantly turned red and left his embrace hastily. She almost twisted her heels, but Cyrus caught her by her waist. 

"Careful, Miss," Cyrus said with a killing smile on his face. 

"Let's settle down!" Cyrus said as he guided her to the corner table in a gentlemanly manner. 

Esther was still red. She never felt like this towards an opposite gender even with Arthur she never felt like that. She felt her heart would pop out soon. Cyrus could hear her thoughts and heartbeat too. 

"Miss, calm down. Your heart would burst out soon!" Cyrus said. 

Esther blushed at his revelation. But she found something distracting, that was she could hear everyone's thoughts around her except him. She took a deep breath and tried to concentrate again on his brain, but she couldn't hear any. And naturally, this old man could hear thoughts and sense her doubts but this old monster was a lot more experienced and knew more things than her, and this little kid who was born twenty-three years ago was jumping in front of him with her lame skills! Humph! 

"Miss, what would you like to drink?" Cyrus asked. 

"Order if there was any juice for me to drink, if not water would do!" she said.

"Why not coffee or tea?" Cyrus asked. 

"I don't have a habit of drinking coffee or tea," she said. 

"Hm," he responded. 

He called the server. He ordered Americano for him while he ordered orange juice for her. The server arrived in less time and left after serving their orders. 

"Miss. Esther, are you willing to be Reggie's mom?" Cyrus asked directly. 

Esther was about to nod but was stopped when she heard Cyrus's words. 

"If I get married, he would have to break apart with you. He would be heartbroken if that happens. So, I would only let my wife be his mother! So, are you getting what I am saying?" Esther said. 

"I can take him with me and can raise him. You can marry anyone you like. This way I could be his mom!" Esther said. 

"Miss. Benjamin, are acting like a fool wantedly?" Cyrus asked. 

"CEO Vritra, are you misunderstanding something here? You said you can only let your wife be his wife. Since I can't be your wife I am...…" before she could say something. 

"Miss. Benjamin, I like you. Not now, but from a long time ago. But you were madly obsessed with Arthur. So, I didn't dare to come in between you! I only hoped you would be happy. But recently when I heard you were being tortured by him, I planned to come to you, but I heard your health was not good. I can't disturb a patient's rest.

"But when I heard Reggie's news, I felt that man was an actual monster. So, I got him back to me and provided safety and security. But adoption of Reggie has nothing to do with you. I didn't adopt him on the point of luring you to me. If I want you to like me, I would have kept him with you and made him say good things. To meet you he was not only the way, but I have other ways too. Just don't think that I am using the kid. 

"Esther, I am waiting for you for the past five years. I know you like Arthur, I wanted to expose him to you a long time ago, but I just can't pop out of anywhere and black paint him. 

"I don't know how to say but be my woman, the only woman in my life. I won't treat you like Arthur. I will treat you like a queen. I would not let you down I will talk to your parents. Reggie would be happy if you marry me!" Cyrus. 

HE, Cyrus, The five-hundred-year-old monks started feeling nervous in front of her. He never felt he would be scared when he met his mate. His palms turned sweaty and unknown to him, his golden eyes lost their color. He wanted to say a lot, but no words were coming out he felt like he was going to suffocate. If it was the person in her previous life, she would either agree or reject him straightaway, but now Esther would say nothing. The present Esther would give silent treatment and makes other go crazy.

And to his loss, he couldn't hear Esther's thoughts! It's like she wasn't thinking. 

Esther got up from her seat and left without looking back. Cyrus paid the bill and chased after her. But she already climbed her car and started driving. 

Esther drove to the Koopam (Base) to check Arthur's position. 

Esther was in a daze all the while. She couldn't digest the thing that she just got to know. Does the great business mogul CEO Vritra like her? 

Damn! 

This is exploding news! 

In everyone's view, she was a broken shoe, didn't she? But how could he like her! If he liked her for a long time, why didn't he approach her or tell her? 

Esther couldn't process anything. She punched the steering wheel in anger. There was Reggie with him, that was his trump card. Does he think he could get her with him? But why does he say that he adopted Reggie with kind intentions but not with impure intentions? Sigh.... A mouse would always say that it stole the cabbage to store but not to eat! 

Humph! He was no different. But his hug, his eyes, his words, and his touch couldn't ignore them. Whenever she remembered them, she couldn't help but turn soft. But it's such a pity. She would never fall for his seduction trap! 

"I will never marry him! I won't even see him from now on!" Esther decided as she said out loud. 

"But he was your destiny! You died in your last life because he didn't grab him! Choose him!" Raudramuki's voice said. 

[Author's Note: From now, 'her soul' would be mentioned as Raudramuki] 

What!? 

HER DESTINY? 

So, when Raudramuki said Reggie would lead her to her destiny meant CYRUS! 

God! 

Is she playing!?

But she unknowingly started responding to him romantically! 

Ahhh...… 

When she was in her turmoil, someone knocked on the car door.
