The Billionaire's Princess

Chapter 24

Camilla’s POV

What’s going on with Doris? He seems so agitated and lost. I might not have insisted but I know that something huge is surely bothering him for him to be anxious like this. Oh God, I hope whatever it is, it does not hold the power to destroy this beautiful relationship we are busy building. I will really hate it if anything at all comes between us. I know that we have only been dating for a few months but what I feel for him is something that is indescribably beautiful and I want to keep it for as long as I can. He makes me feel complete even with the little I actually possess. Now I understand exactly why he asked me where I have been all his life the first day we met, I guess the contentment in that moment was pretty obvious. In that moment it didn’t matter if we knew each other’s names or not, only what we felt did, LOVE.

I would love to know what’s bothering him so I can help him solve it or at least cope with it but at the same time I want him to trust me enough to come to me and tell me what’s eating him alive. It have been two weeks already with him acting this way. He is certainly not the Doris that know, he seems distraught all the time but I can’t pester him about this, it might just make things even worse. I have to respect that he knows what he is doing and when he is ready he is going to finally confide in me willingly.

I must say, the person who said love shouldn’t be just the beating of the heart but the thinking of the brain too wasn’t wrong at all. Love should be nurtured in whatever decision you take, you need to take both parties into consideration and I totally understand that a person’s privacy in a relationship is just as crucial as the TOGETHER time. I was supposed to be busy studying as my exams are approaching and here I am, Focus Lea, Focus!. I thought!

“Cami, what’s wrong? Why are zoning out on me?” Caroline asked.

“It’s nothing Caroline, maybe I am just tired from all the studying I have been busy with lately.” I uttered and the phrase left a bitter taste in my mouth, and then I just realized that I lied to my best friend.

“Listen to me now girlfriend, you better tell me what’s up with you or I have to force it out of you missy,” she threatened while putting her arms around my shoulders and I shoved them away.

“Okay, I will tell you. The thing is that I am really worried about Doris,” I confided in her.

“You’re worried about Doris? Why, what happened?”

“ I don’t know Caroline. These days he just seems so nervous and disturbed all the time. I know that he has always been a very affectionate lover but everything just changed. When he hugs me or kiss me it feels like the last time he is going to kiss me. Every kiss just feels like a goodbye and it’s scaring me. He even begged me not to leave him,” I lament everything in a rush. There is just no way was I going to keep this to myself.

“Doris scared? Now that is just something that I never imagine it existed in the life of the Mighty Robson’s life. Can it be that he did something and he is scared that you will hate him if you find out?” she asked curiously.

“What are you saying Caroline? What can Doris possibly have done that he can’t tell me about? It just doesn’t make any sense,” I stressed. I have thought about this whole situation a lot and in both scenarios I came out empty without any clue. I know for sure that it can’t be cheating because Doris will never do that to me.
