Chapter 168 - Blur Memories

Adam glared at him but took the bag anyways and turned to face Stella. "I will be back before you even know it." He pressed a lingering kiss on her forehead before heading towards the restroom.

Ten minutes later, he walked out of the restroom clad in a black coat and pants with a black button down shirt. The top two buttons were left undone, showing off a bit of his toned chest. He had a big bright smile gracing his lips as he shifted.his attention towards his girl. He walked towards her at a steady pace while closing the clasp of the Sterling silver watch, his eyes never leaving her face. 

His steps came to a halt when he was right before her. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulled her closer to him and placed a lingering kiss on her forehead. Stella closed her eyes as she felt warmth creeping up her spine, engulfing her entire being.

A flash distracted the two love birds, bringing them out of their own dream world. 

Adam shot a threatening glare at Blake who just shrugged in response. 

"Not my fault man. You guys were looking damn good, I had to capture it. You will thank me later anyway." He replied with a smirk to which Adam just shook his head. 

Adam was about to reply to him when Stella interrupted the two of them. "You guys can continue to fight later on, let's cut the cake first." She grabbed Adam's arm and almost dragged him to the table which was placed in the center of the room. 

A white cloth was draped over the wooden table, a bunch of fairy lights illuminated the plain cloth with a yellowish hue. Dark red roses were set around the single-tier chocolate mousse cake. 

Stella picked up a knife which was resting next to the cake and passed it to Adam before passing a questioning look to Blake. 

"Hold on." Blake added as if remembering something. He took out a lighter from his pocket and lit up the sparkling candle which was in the centre of the cake.  

Lillian shook her head at her forgetful boss/boyfriend, controlling the urge to kick his ass right there and then. 

"Make a wish." Stella leaned close to Adam and whispered next to his ear. 

Adam mumbled something under his breath before cutting the cake while the others in the room wished him a happy birthday. He cut a small piece out before picking it up and brought it before Stella's lips. 

Stella bit a little of it before taking the same piece from his head and fed it to him, more like push the entire piece in his mouth. 

"Are you forgetting that there are others in the room as well?" Blake made a sarcastic remark when he saw Adam wiping his hand with a tissue paper.

"Can you please have some patience?" Adam rolled his eyes. He cut another piece of the cake and walked towards Blake and the rest. 

After an hour or so of drinking and chatting the couples decided to go back to their rooms leaving Wilson on his own. 

Looking around the empty room, he clicked his tongue before walking out as well. He didn't forget to grab a bottle of expensive wine which was served to them on his way out. 

He headed towards his room which was on the same floor while whistling the tune of his favourite song. As he was about to turn left, he heard a familiar voice, one which he couldn't forget no matter how much he wanted to. 

His steps came to a halt before they took him towards the direction from which the voice was coming. With each of his step, the voice got louder and louder. He could tell by the tone that the owner of the voice was angry and yelling at someone probably. 

A minute later, he found himself looking at the back of the person whom he had been missing unknowingly all this time.  

He blinked a couple of times to make sure he wasn't dreaming. He slowly raised his free hand to tap on the person's shoulder. When he didn't get a response he pouted and tapped once again.

"Who the fuck….." The rest of his words died down as Wilson's lips turned up in a smirk.

"Looks like you haven't forgotten me either." Wilson remarked as he took a step closer. 

"I will talk to you later. And you better fix the problem before that." The man shouted into the phone's speaker before disconnecting the call. 

"What are you doing here?" Wilson decided to initiate the conversation.

"I had a meeting here earlier in the day." 

Wilson hummed and eyed him from top to bottom as his eyes glinted mischievously. 

"You look good." He remarked as he let his eyes wander over his perfectly toned figure which was clad in an all gray three piece suit.  

"I wish I could say the same about you." The man before him replied to which a low chuckle left Wilson's lips. 

"You haven't changed at all." He added, shaking his head slightly. "Who was the poor guy you were yelling at this time?" 

"My incompetent secretary. I think I need a new one." The man replied as he took the wine bottle from his hand. 

"You are going to drink all of this alone." The man spoke the obvious as he eyed the  expensive and fancy wine bottle.

"Not if you join me." Wilson added, raising an eyebrow at him.

"Your room or my room?" The man asked as his gaze darkened at the underlying meaning of his words. 

"Last time it was yours. This time it's mine." Wilson winked at him before taking the wine bottle back from his hands. 

He started to walk towards his room without turning back for even once. He could hear the light yet strong steps following him. The corner of his lips curled up in a pleased smile as his thoughts drifted back to some blur memories.
