The Billionaire's Proposal (Hessa) - part 4

I kept looking at Hardin without a word while my mind and my heart were fighting inside me.

"Tessa, come on. You don't trust me?"

"I trust you... I just... I'm afraid."

"Of what?" He looks into my eyes and I can see warmth in his.

"I've never been in a helicopter before..."

"You will be thrilled. Trust me!"

"Promise?"

"Yes. If you are afraid, I will hug you and I will keep your hand."

"Hmm, okay."

I give him my hand and we get in the helicopter. As much as I denied it, I knew myself that I was dying to spend this day with him. To get to know this mysterious and handsome art love better.

He helps me to sit on a chair and he secures my belts, touching me from time to time. Then he sits next to me and he does the same with his belts. After that he gives a sign to the pilot and we rise from the floor.

Soon after that...

After one hour of flying, we finally arrived at Hardin's secret place. An island with beautiful greenery, a huge mansion and a big tropical bar at the beach. His green eyes kept watching me as I looked around, waiting for a reaction from me.

"Welcome. Do you like this place?"

"This place is amazing! Where are we, Hardin?"

"We're on Georgia Island."

"Georgia?"

"Yes... I named it after my mother. Uhm... she died... But I don't want to talk about sad stuff."

"Hold on! You own this island?!" I say shocked.

"Yes."

"I can't believe this. You have you own island?! Are you for real?"

"Yes. Why you don't believe me?"

"This is amazing, Hardin! I wish I had something like this. So... whenever you want to run away, you come here?"

"You are right. But this is not just for peace and relax."

We are interrupted by a kids group which are running to Hardin. What's this? A mid-age woman is behind them, trying to stop them. As these kids were here, they started to Hardin. I looked up at him and I saw the most honest smile.

"Daddy! It's so good to have you here." A blond boy says with a big smile on his face. Daddy? What's happening here?

"Mr. Scott, I'm sorry for this. We were taking a walk and they heard the helicopter and they wanted to see you." The woman says.

"That's fine, Angela. Oh, she's..."

"Tessa Young, an artist. I'm hired to make his painting."

"I'm glad you found someone, Mr. Scott. Now, we have to leave. Kids, let's go!"

"Daddy, are you coming with us?"

"I'm sorry buddy. Next time. And I promise to stay and play with all of you."

"Ok. Byee!"

"Bye, buddy!" He smiles as the kids and this woman leaves.

"Daddy? Are you his father?"

"No, he is calling me daddy since I know him and I don't mind him calling me this way. It's a huge foster on this island. And those kids are living there."
