One Wild Night

Chapter 54 - May The Best Actor Win.



Bryan unlocked his phone and noticed he had several missed calls from his manager and Mia, but ignored those as he opened his Instagram app and went to his page to check out his tags. He saw the pictures Sonia had tagged him to and then groaned when he realized why Mia had picked out a yellow t-shirt. He was trying to end things with Sonia not wear matching outfits.

Why was Sonia coming to see him all of a sudden after staying under the radar for some days? What was she trying to do? Was this some sort of fun game for her? Bryan wondered as he looked at her picture. He wished he knew what she was thinking in that head of hers, but unfortunately, he had no idea, so now he had to settle for whatever she was doing and play the game with her. He was just going to give Matt a call after this, and have him step in to take Sonia off his hands.

Bryan glanced at Mia when he noticed she had been unusually quiet for some time, and then remembered she had sounded annoyed back in his bedroom, "Are you still mad?"

'Good of you to notice,' Mia thought in her head before taking in a deep breath. She was a very hot-tempered person, but thus far she had tried her best to be calm while working for Bryan, but he seemed to be pushing her to her limit these days, "It doesn't matter," she said tight-lipped.

"I didn't ruin another date, did I?" Bryan asked in a concerned tone, hoping that wasn't the case.

"You didn't."

Bryan let out a sigh of relief, "I'm glad. I'm sorry I hung up and had to make you come all this way. I was very bored last night and ended up binge-reading all night, so I was really exhausted and needed to sleep," Bryan said, and Mia spared him a glance before giving him a curt nod.

She hadn't been expecting an apology from him after all, but then again, his manager had said Bryan seemed to like her more than he had liked his past assistants. She had a feeling he liked her because she was not like his past assistants who were always willing to please him and take his crap. She never failed to express her disapproval or annoyance, even though she did so mostly indirectly.

"What do you think about her? Sonia, I mean," Bryan asked, and Mia could guess from his tone that he was feeling kind of nervous.

Mia was actually more than impressed by what Sonia was doing. Especially because since the engagement news got out, Bryan hadn't been with any girl, at least none that she knew about, and this was a very good thing. contemporary romance

"I think she is really cool. I like her," Mia said with a small smile, surprising Bryan.

"You do? Why?" Bryan asked with a puzzled frown. Why could anyone who knew the true situation of things, and how Sonia was trying to frustrate him, like her?

Mia nodded, "I used to love reading her novels until I started work and couldn't find time to read anymore. I like to see that she is as bold and daring as the female leads in her stories," Mia said, with a small smile. She was going to give Sonia as much support as she could, as long as it would help them keep Bryan in check and out of scandals for some time.

"Oh! I see."

Somehow Bryan agreed with Mia. Sonia was unquestionably a talented writer, and maybe if he hadn't met her under such weird circumstances, he would have been a real fan too. Perhaps he would have also appreciated her bold and daring attributes if only it wasn't being used against him.

"You don't like her?" Mia asked after a brief hesitation.

"I don't."

"Why?" Mia asked curiously. Sonia was a very beautiful, and intelligent lady, a combination she was aware that Bryan liked in his women. So what was different about Sonia?

"She is not my type. She looks and smells like trouble. I just want to wrap up this whole nightmare and return to my exciting life," Bryan muttered.

There it was. He didn't like the fact that the title of his relationship with Sonia was stopping him from mingling with other women. He obviously did not want to be in a committed relationship, hence he didn't like Sonia. Too bad for him that she was going to be giving Sonia her complete support. It was high time someone tamed this bad boy, Mia mused as she kept driving.

Some minutes later the car rolled to a stop in front of the airport and before Bryan could alight from the car he sighted the swarm of paparazzi gathered around someone with their cameras in hand like they were taking pictures.

"I guess my darling fiancee has arrived," Bryan muttered dryly as he observed what was going on.

"You should join her," Mia suggested, trying to hide her excitement. This was like watching a movie, and she wanted to see just what Sonia had up her sleeves for this bad boy.

As long as she wanted to play a game, he was going to play the doting fiance, that way it will be easier to act as the brokenhearted fiance who had been betrayed by the lady he loved. He was an actor after all, and a very good romance actor for that matter. Without saying another word, he got out of the car and dipped his right hand in his pocket as he made his way towards the small crowd.

Once Bryan got close to them his lips curved in a smile as he yelled, "Baby!"

Once Sonia heard his voice, her face lit up with a smile that started from her eyes, and her lips curved upwards, revealing her perfect set of white teeth. She could tell that Bryan was into his acting mode.

'May the best actor win,' she thought in her head as she quickly let go of her handbag and luggage box, letting them fall to the ground as dramatically as possible, she rushed through the crowd of journalists and flung herself into Bryan's ready arms.. Their lips locked in a passionate kiss, which of course was for the benefit of the curious eyes observing them, and also for the cameras which were now flashing in their direction.
