Married to the President novel Chapter 75

They were quiet until they arrived at the Paradise hotel. It was indeed Paradise. It's architectural design was the best Theresa Mo had seen both home and abroad.

Its walls were covered with precious stones and the floor was glittering. Theresa Mo hadn't stepped out of the car yet, but she was already carried away by the beauty of the environs.

"Wow, Junxie, this hotel is the best!" She exclaimed. She turned and glanced at him. This is not a place where mean people were found.

High officials and politicians are the ones who frequent the hotel. Men with class and people from the aristocrat family are the ones who can afford it.

"Glad you like it. I was thinking of building something like this for my sons before dad willed it to one of them. This is my favorite resort when I want to be alone" Junxie Li replied, parking his car at a designated area.

Theresa Mo smiled. She's happy. This beautiful place is now owned by her kid. She smiled and her eyes became moist.

Junxie Li glanced at her and chuckled. She is moved by what she's just seeing. She's yet to unfold the privileges that await her and the kids.

He unfastened his seat belt and was going to step down when Lanre drove into the premises. He didn't know the car he parked next to was Junxie nor that Theresa Mo was inside.

Junxie Li saw him and paused. He glanced at his girl and the latter also saw him and Rosa stepping down from the car.

"Did you tell them I am with you?" Junxie Li asked. "No, I didn't inform them," Theresa Mo replied.

He opened the door and stepped out. He walked over and held the door for Theresa Mo to step out.

"Theresa Mo"

Rosa called out and Lanre also saw her. They both exchanged glances and wondered why she was in Company of President Li that she detested so much.

"Lanre"

" Rosa"

Theresa called them and walked over, hugging Rosa. Lanre gave her a hug and kissed her chin.

They hadn't seen each other in a while. The lovers were obviously happy to see Theresa.

"Hello President Li" Lanre walked over and offered a hand. Junxie Li smiled faintly and took his hand.

"How do you do Rosa?"Junxie Li called out to his girlfriend's bestie. Rosa bowed slightly and smiled.

She looked at her friend and she shrugged.

They had a lot to catch up on. She was going to fire questions at Theresa Mo that she would be confused if she's undertaking an interview.

"Shall we?" Junxie Li asked and the others nodded. He led the way with his hand around Theresa's waist.

He wore a waistcoat but that doesn't reduce his looks and charm. He looked friendly and was all smiles that evening.

Rosa glanced at Lanre and the latter shrugged. He knew Rosa wanted to ask if Theresa Mo told him about her relationship with President Li.

But he is as surprised as she was when he saw them together. With the romantic way Junxie Li held her, he knew they were already dating.

As Junxie Li approached the door,the security held the door for them to walk in. The security bowed before saying "Welcome President Li"

He nodded and walked past him. The grand floor was a restaurant and it was partitioned with a beautiful wall.

Some are for the VIP and others for the general purpose. Junxie Li looked towards an enclosed partition when a man walked out of the room.

He looked elegant and handsome. He wore a designer suit and bowed slightly with his hands clasped before him " Welcome eldest master"

"How are you doing Su Yan?" He replied. The latter said he is doing fine. He asked how the young masters are doing and that earned him a megawatt smile from Junxie.

"You know about my kids?" He asked and the latter answered and said, everyone knows, especially after their grandfather came to the hotel and said good things about his grandsons.

Junxie just smiled. Su Yan then led them to a private room. It was large and had a table that was convenient for their group of four.

Theresa Mo was full of smiles. Her kids have become sought after kids and many look forward to meeting them someday.

When they got into the room, Junxie pulled out a seat for Theresa Mo before taking a seat opposite her.

Lanre did the same for his girlfriend before sitting. The men sat opposite their women. Without making any requests yet, trays were brought in containing different fruits and placed in front of the guest.

They made their orders and the waiters left. Su Yan also bowed and left. They started eating the fruits. Besides occasional glances, everyone concentrated on the fruits before them.

Lanre and Rosa kept communicating with each other with their eyes. President Li was coming along no wonder Theresa Mo said they should meet in Paradise hotel.

Besides the President, how many more like them can afford such a luxurious hotel? They can't wait to hear Theresa Mo tell them how they finally ended up together.

Halfway, Junxie Li pushed the tray aside. He wasn't eating again.

The others were still picking slices of fruits into their mouth when the waiters arrived.

The Food was served. The two women had ordered for a hotspot. The sight of the food steaming out vapour coupled with the aroma, Theresa Mo was salivating.

Junxie Li just stared at her and saw her eyes brighten up at the sight of the hotspot. She ran her tongue over her lower lip and was already devouring it.

Rosa was excited but was calm. She can't go extreme before President Li. She's uncomfortable with his presence. He has a dominating aura.

Junxie Li was having chicken rice and Lanre went for noodles. Junxie Li was the first to dig into his food.

Theresa wasted no time as she started eating as well. Junxie paused and poured her a soft wine. He resumed eating his food.

At intervals, he would cut slices of chicken and pass into Theresa's mouth. Theresa Mo would open her mouth and chew it in.

Theresa Mo tasted the wine and didn't like it. She passed it over to Junxie Li and took his glass of red wine.

"Do you want to get drunk?" Junxie Li asked. He couldn't allow her to get drunk when he had only accompanied her to dinner with her friends.

"Aren't you going to get drunk as well?" She asked and took the glass to her mouth. Before reaching her mouth, Junxie picked her glass of wine in front of him and took it to her lips.

"I have greater tolerance for alcohol than you do" Junxie Li replied, holding the glass to her mouth. Theresa Mo let him put the glass in her mouth and drank it.

She soon finished her hotpot and drank a lot of wine. She was full. She glanced at her friends and saw they were rounding off their meal.

"Do you want more?" Junxie Li asked. He saw her empty her plate sooner than anybody else. Maybe she's not full, he thought.

"No, I am full" Theresa Mo declined. They all finished their meal and Junxie Li looked towards Rosa and glanced at Lanre.

" When Theresa told me she was going to have dinner with you both, I chose to accompany her. I wanted to meet you both and say thank you..." Junxie Li began.
