The Billionaire's Unexpected Proposal by Samantha

Chapter 64

After his last appointment on Friday evening. Derek headed directly for the restaurant where he was to meet

with Sandra for their dinner.

He wished the date had been set at an earlier tand not after the close of work, so he could easily leave after

thirty minutes or an hour.

Though the date wasn't until 5 p.m., Derek had decided to arrive there early. He wasn't there out of eagerness

but just because he wanted to have control of the situation.

He wanted to be fully prepared for the evening, knowing well that this date was more than just to fulfill his end of

the bargain with his mom but also a step toward uncovering Michael's plots.

As he sat there, sipping on a glass of water and waiting for Sandra. Derek decided to give Ethan a call but before

he could dial Ethan's line, his call

Derek received the call with a chuckle, "Why do you always appear or call just when | talk or think about you!"

Ethan chuckled. "Maybe because you're in love with me?" he joked and Derek rolled his eyes.

*Last t| checked, you do not have boobs, and your nisn't Evelyn," he said causing Ethan to laugh.

"Yet you're always thinking about me," Ethan said dryly. "What are you up to?" he asked and Derek raised a brow

"I'm at

"No wonder you were missing me," he said, making Derek laugh.

said and Derek grinned.

"It might not be so bad. Who knows! You might end up falling hopelessly in love with her," Ethan said and Derek

snorted.

"Not when Evelyn is alive. And even if Evelyn stopped existing, | could never be interested in her step-sister.

Anyway, | wanted to call you earlier ‘cause | want you to callat exactly 6 p.m. | don't want this date to be

longer than an hour, Derek said and Ethan chuckled

"Sure. About our own date tonight, how about you pickup so we go together?" Ethan suggested.

"Cool But it's not a date. Don't forget to call by 0. Bye, Derek said and hung up when he saw Sandra

approaching.

Derek smiled as he watched her draw closer, his eyes never leaving her. Observing her appearance, Derek

couldn't deny that she was indeed a beautiful woman. But her beauty didn't interest him since Evelyn was far

more beautiful. What he was interested in was the hidden agenda he knew she had.

Sandra smiled as

as she saw the way he was

he was staring at

at her with interest, and she could swear she saw a spark of lust in his eyes.

Of course, no man wouldn't want to have her. Not even Derek Stone was immune to her charms.

The moment she stopped in front of him, Derek rose to greet her, putting on his most charming smile.

"I hope | didn't keep you waiting, Mr Stone," she asked, her voice soft and apologetic.

"Please, callDerek. And no, you didn't keepwaiting. A beautiful woman like you should be waited on

Derek said smoothly, putting on his

best act

Sandra smiled even more brightly glad that he was receptive to her. "Thanks," she said as he pulled out a chair

for her.

"I've heard a lot about you, Sandra.. | can call you that, right?" Derek asked as he took his seat, and she nodded.

"Please do" she said eagerly.

"I was going to say, I've heard so many wonderful things about you, and it sort of madeanxious about our

date so | had to arrive a little early to calm myself so | don't make a fool of myself," he said and Sandra giggled

softly.

"For real? Do you know how anxious I've been about this date? I've been walking about all day with a jittery

feeling in my belly. I'm glad to know Tim not the only one who's anxious about this date. So, maybe we can both

relax together or make a fool of ourselves together, Sandra said and before Derek could respond, a waiter

appeared at their side.

"Shere. You know, | was hoping to talk to you at the party. Unfortunately, | couldn't. I'm sorry you had to go

through such embarrassment," he said and she waved it off.

"It's nothing compared to what you and your family went through," she said, flashing him an apologetic smile.

"Thankfully, everyone has moved on from that now," Derek cut in dismissively as the waiter cwith their

Derek listened attentively as she talked, stopping her to ask questions at intervals, and Sandra soon realized

that she was becoming more relaxed. and was actually enjoying the date.

She had come, thinking that Derek would be distant and unpleasant, but she was happy to see that she had
