BLS #5: Beautiful Nightmare

Hailey Anderson

"Good morning!" I said to my parents cheerfully as I walked to the dining room to have breakfast.

"Morning cupcake." My dad answered but his eyes stucked to his iPad, I bet he's reading the news.

"Morning Hailey." My mom answered and I smiled. I sat next to my dad and took my bread. Don't forget nutella.. yes nutella.

"You're going with me today." My dad said and I looked up to him.

"Where?"

"Work.. I'm meeting important people today."

"Dad, I just graduated 2 days ago. Let me rest for awhile will you?" I asked as I put my nutella bread into my mouth.

"I don't care, you have to come with me." He said and I pouted.

"Dad, I'm tired. Let me have 1 week rest after that I promise I'll work." I promised and he shook his head.

"No can't do princess, I want you to come with me today."

"Who is this important people?"

"7 Gold Lifes." My mom answered and my eyes widen. Oh my gosh. When I was in business school, everyone talked about them. Literally everyone, the 7 Gold Lifes are like our role model. They're awesome, known as the most cruelest, demanding and coldest man in business world.

They're so famous and not to mention 2 weeks ago Max Cesantio was engaged to Rose Hastington a.k.a Luke's brother. 4 out of 7 settling down and there's a tons of women trying to get them but not able to reach them.

Models, actress and important people all wanted to reach them but they can't. I don't even know how Aaron can end up with Sophia.. the most ridiculous one is Sky with Janet Stanmore. Damn Janet Stanmore is a really beautiful blogger, she mocked Sky and ended up marrying him.

Everyone want to meet them in person but too bad they're so busy and no one can meet them without booking an appointment.

My dad has been in a business world for quite long and he has a furniture factory for hotels and other things. We're rich but not as rich as them, 7 Gold Lifes sure are amazing. They're still so young but already have a high status and money.

Girls adore them, I have seen their photos and they looked so handsome but some of them say that in real life they're a living god. My friend Flora seen them once but only Alexander and Sky with their wives.

Flora said that they all look so perfect. Alex and Sky are such a greek god and Angelia.. the famous actress is so beautiful. Janet is.. just.. a really stunning blonde.

"Hailey." My dad called and that's where I got back to reality from spacing out.

"Yes dad?"

"You have to come with me. You're going to be my heirest so you have to learn a lot." My dad said and I nodded.

"After this go take a shower because we're meeting them at the Hastington Hotel." My dad stated.

"All of them? Like 7 of them?" I asked.

"Yeah." My dad ate his bread.

"Oh damn dad! That's like everyone's dream to meet them." I squealed.

"That's the point.. some of them can only meet one or two but today I'm meeting all of them. I was mind blown too but that's the fact." My dad chuckled.

"They're all handsome." My mom added.

"Yes mom.. I'm so excited. Before I graduated everyone's dream is to be like them and now I'm meeting them."

"I'm going to have a really big deal with them today.. a really big one and I don't know how it will turn out but let's pray that they accept it." My dad said and sipped his coffee.

"Dad.. There's a new LV bag, it's so beautiful and don't forget it's limited edition. Can I buy it?" I smiled widely and gave him a puppy eyes.

"Another bag?" My mom asked.

"Yeah" I nodded.

"You can have it if you can help me get the deal." He said and I nodded happily. This is going be fun and I can't wait to see them all.

After eating breakfast, I quickly made my way back to my room. I jumped into the shower and dried myself quickly. I curled my hair first and then put my make up on.

I decided to wear a white jeans with a pink soft sweater since it's a little bit cold. I took my clutch and put my phone and everything that I need in it.

I checked myself three times to see if I have any weird things on my body but it turns out everything's already perfect. I walked out and go downstairs to take my nude highheels.

"You're ready?" My dad asked.

"I'm a little bit nervous." I said honestly.

"Nervous why?" He asked.

"I'm going to meet the most important person.. my friend's role model.. the hardest person to meet and just.. everything." I said and gestured weirdly, my dad chuckled.

"Relax, don't need to be nervous. I think their wives will come too.. maybe not but you can talk to them."

"Who? Which one? Oh how I wish I can meet Angelia Selosvone." I prayed and he chuckled. My dad ruffled my hair.

"I don't know who will come but let's just go."

"What time is your appointment?" I asked.

"11."

"It's still early."

"I rather wait for them because I'm the one who wants that deal." My dad said as he put on his tie.

"I'll help you get the deal." I promised.

"Okay princess.. I know you can help me." He smiled. I'm so nervous and.. argh! I don't know what to do. I'm excited and nervous at the same time.

Hailey Anderson

I'm so nervous and I'm literally sweating right now. We're currently at the Hastington Hotel, at their the meeting room to be exact. There's still 10 minutes left and I'm just.. so so so nervous.

"I'm nervous." I said and my dad chuckled.

"Why nervous? They're just ordinary people like us." He said and I looked at him disbelief.

"They're not ordinary." I said.

"Just calm down, Hailey. Your face is a little bit pale." My dad said and patted my shoulder. I nodded and I kept looking at my watch.

Suddenly the door opened and I quickly stood up. I saw them walking inside the room one by one. I swear my eyes lighted up and looked at them one by one. This is like a dream come true.

"Good afternoon Mr. Anderson." Kenneth Domanco said.

"Good afternoon gentlemen." My dad greeted back and I swear my eyes just scanned them one by one but my eyes landed on the guy with light blue eyes with light brown hair.

"This is my daughter, Hailey" My dad introduced me.

"Good Afternoon, I'm Hailey. Nice to meet you." I smiled.

"Please sit down and let's start this" Ken said and I sat down. The table is rounded and right across me is Luke. The owner of that beautiful light blue eyes. I can't take my eyes off him and my heartbeat is just not normal.

My dad began to talk about the deal and I turned deaf for a moment. I swear it. I can't pay attention to anything beside the man across me, Luke Hastington.

"You can manage this? Are you sure?" Luke suddenly asked dad in a really firm tone. His eyes was so serious and I can see how passionate he is in business world.

"I'm sure Mr. Hastington, because I have been in a big project a couple of times." My dad answered.

"This is a really big project Mr. Anderson, we the 7 Gold Lifes trust you in this and do you know if you make a mistake you will get the consequences?" Luke asked.

"Of course Mr. Hastington, I won't disappoint you gentlemen and beside this is a really good opportunity for me." My dad answered.

"We'll prove it to you gentlemen that we can work perfectly without any flaws, I'll make sure this deal will run smoothly." I added and Luke turned to me. Oh heavens.. that blue eyes.

"This is a really critical deal Ms. Anderson, you may say that. You just graduated.. or should I say 2 days ago?" I turned to Max Cesantio, he said that in a little hint of coldness.

"She graduated from business school and she's still learning." My dad said and looked at me. He eyed me not to say anything again.

"Can you get this all done in 1 month?" Alexander North asked.

"2 months, it takes time. We usually take 3-4 months, we can't shrink it into 1 month but we can try 2 months." My dad answered.

"The shipping.. how long it will take?" Aaron Samuel asked.

"2 days, I have my own ship to send my things all over the world." My dad answered and I just went blank. I can't stop admiring these people in front of me. They're so charismatic and so cool.

"We'll take 100 first." Kenneth Domanco said and I saw my dad smiling.

"100 in 2 months with 2 days of shipping." Kenneth Domanco added and he wrote something on this note.

"Okay."

"Let's sign the contract tomorrow, Mr. Anderson." Kenneth said and they all nodded in agreement. We all stood up, my dad shook hands with all of them and now it's my turn.

I shook my hands with Alexander North first and then Max, Sebastian, Ken, Luke, Sky and lastly.. my prince charming Luke Hastington. I swear his hand felt so warm.

They walked out first and me and my dad followed. They talked about something and suddenly Luke turned to us.

"Mr. Anderson, would you like to join us for lunch?" He asked.

"Can we?" My dad asked politely.

"Sure.. we can talk about the contract and maybe we can sign it today too." He said and my dad nodded.

"Where to?"

"Here.. at our restaurant at the 20th Floor." He stated and I saw he glance at me. Oh my gosh, I can't breath.

"Baby" I flinched as I heard that. I saw Rose Hastington ran to Max.

"Rose!" Luke warned and her eyes widen. She saw me and smiled. She walked to us.

"Hello." She shook hands with my dad and me. She smiled and damn she's beautiful, why do they have to be perfect? So perfect to be exact!

"Rose Hastington." She said

"Hailey Anderson" I said.

"You're so beautiful.. I rarely meet someone who is a red head." She stated and I chuckled.

"Yeah you're right."

"Let's head to the restaurant." Luke said and the 7 Gold Lifes lead the way. We took the lift together and Rose stand beside me.

"So how old are you?" She asked.

"23.. just graduated." I answered.

"From?"

"Serinate Business School." I answered and she nodded.

"My friend went there too.. do you know Ashton-"

"Can you not mention that name babe?" She was cut by Max and she glared.

"Ashton Searan." Sebastian continued and Max glared at him.

"He's my senior, graduated last year." I answered and the lift door opened. We walked out from the lift and followed them to the big table.

"Hello." I turned to see.. Oh my gosh, it's Angelia Selosvone.

"Oh my gosh! I'm your fan." I shook her hand and so was my dad.

"Really? Thankyou." She smiled widely. We all sat down after that and guess what? Luke sat beside me and I swear my nervousness flipped three times worser than before. The most handsome man that I've ever seen sat beside me.

My heart suddenly state this, I want this man.. I really want this man to be mine. I want him and when Hailey wants something, she has to get it.

I want to tell my dad that I want to marry this man beside me.

Hailey Anderson

Luke Hastington

The owner of Hastington Hotel chains all over the world, One of the members of the 7 Gold Lifes, 30 years old and single. He's known as the most hardworking and the cold man of the 7 Gold Lifes.

I looked through Luke's photos on google and just admiring him so bad. He looks good in every photos.

"What are you looking at?" I jumped, I saw my bestfriend Michael sat on the sofa.

"You scared me asshole!" I glared at him and held my phone tightly.

"What are you looking?"

"Nothing." I shut my phone.

"Are you watching porn?" He asked and I looked at him disbelief.

"Are you stupid?" I smacked his arm.

"Then what are you looking?" He asked.

"Why are you here?" I asked not caring to answer his question.

"I'm here to entertain you and besides I'm bored." I rolled my eyes.

"What do you want to do? I'm going to work in 1 hour." I said and he shook his head.

"Let's just go somewhere." He suggested and I shook my head, I put my phone inside my bag.

"No Mike, I'm going to work."

"Since when you pick work more than me?" Since I saw Luke. Today dad and the 7 Gold Lifes will sign the contract and I have to go to see Luke.

"Ready pumpkin? Oh hey Michael!" My dad walked down from the stairs and I smiled to him.

"Yes daddy, I'm ready."

"Hailey." Michael pouted and I smacked his arm.

"Let's go." Dad said and walked out from the house.

"Bye Mikey.. Let's just have lunch tomorrow, how's that?" I asked and he nodded weakly. I walked out from my house and got into my dad's car.

"Seatbelt princess." He said and I put my seatbelt on.

"Daddy, where is my bag?" I asked.

"It will arrive tomorrow sweetheart." He smiled to me and I can't help but excited inside my heart.

"So after we sign the contract, what should we do?" I asked hoping that I can interact more with Luke and all of them.

"We only watch our factory and mantain everything."

"We don't need to see them again?" I asked and my dad chuckled.

"Why? You never get this excited before." He said.

"Just asking. I mean they're a really famous and successful people. I'm just amaze."

"Yes, you're right but no.. we're not going to meet them frequently." He said and I sighed sadly.

"What's in your head?" He asked.

"I really want something daddy.. I promise after this wish I won't ask for anything else again." I said and he glanced at me. I took a deep breath and turned to my dad.

"What is it? Don't make me anxious. Don't tell me that you want a diamond or something like expensive jewelry? No cupcake we-"

"I want to marry Luke Hastington." I said and my dad stepped on the brake. My eyes widen in horror and thank God the road isn't that crowded or else.

"Marry? Luke Hastington?" He asked disbelief and he started to drive again.

"Yes."

"Why? Why do you want to marry him?"

"I like him." I said simply.

"I don't think I can do that sweetheart." He said and my heart crunched.

"Why?" I said a little annoy.

"Marriage is a really serious thing, Hailey. You can't wish for it and get it the next day. You need Luke to have the same feelings as you and besides they don't want to settle down."

"But 4 out of 7 already did."

"Luke is the most difficult one, Hailey." My dad sighed.

"I want to marry him dad and that's final."

"Hailey it's not easy, we just got the deal and if you want something like that, we might lose the deal."

"Dad please.. I really like him and I want to marry him so bad please." I begged.

"Hailey.. I don't think I can grant your wish."

"Daddy." I whined.

"Hailey don't do this okay? They're important people, we can't just ask him to marry you." My dad let out a sigh.

"I will marry him daddy.. I will get him."

"Hailey.. I'll grant everything but please don't act stupid and asked something like not marrying him." He said and I shook my head.

"What Hailey wants, Hailey always gets it. No matter how hard it is, I'll marry him." I said and my dad shook my head.

"He'll hate you Hailey."

"No. I will make him fall in love with me." I swear it.

Not long after that we arrived at the Hastington Hotel again, my heart jumped in excitement and I can't help but smile widely. My dad just looked at me weirdly, I ignored him though.

We went up to the meeting room, we got in first and there's no one there. Of course we need to wait for them. Suddenly the door bursted open revealing.. Rose Hastington?

"Hello.. Good morning, Mr. Anderson and Hailey." She smiled warmly.

"Good morning, Mrs. Cesantio." My dad and I shook her hand.

"Mr. Anderson, please call me Rose." She chuckled.

"Where is Luke?" I asked straight forward and she looked at me a little shock.

"Luke? My brother?" She asked and I nodded. My dad pinched my hand signaling me not to ask her about it.

"They will come in a minute, but first I want to give you details about the contract and then they will come here." She smiled sweetly and I can't help feel excited. She explained it to my dad and I just anxiously wait for them to come. I tapped my feet continuosly because I'm nervous.. so nervous to be exact.

Suddenly the door bursted open revealing Sky Locason first and then one by one start to appeared. I saw Luke wearing a grey suit, his hair was so perfectly style and he looked so handsome. Damn.. can I take a picture right now?

"Hey babe." Max kissed her wife's cheek and she smiled.

"Good morning, Mr. Anderson and Hailey." Kenneth greeted and I didn't care about his greeting. My eyes landed on Luke only. I looked at him like he's the last person on earth.

Suddenly his eyes landed on me, I smiled and he just looked away giving me a cold shoulder.

Luke Hastington, I will make you fall in love with me.
