BXBX NOVEL Chapter 421 - Cox Sisters (2)
As four of them walked inside the venue, people unconsciously parted to give them way.
All eyes were on them, and most of them were not friendly.
Females were jealous of JoAnna and Sarah for their great looks, and for the handsome men who held them as they walked.
Males were jealous of Jeff and Aiden because of their status and beautiful women on their side.
But no matter how malicious or jealous anyone was, they could not deny that those four people were perfect, like made for each other.
"Will you tell me now what the plan is?" Aiden wanted to know what are JoAnna and Sarah up to. Well, mostly Sarah. But she refused to tell him anything before the party.
Sarah smiled mysteriously. "It\'s Anna\'s plan. I\'m mostly here for support."
Aiden squinted. "I have hard time believing that."
"I\'m not lying when I say that it\'s Anna\'s plan." She said sincerely.
Aiden realized that she didn\'t say what they are up to. "Fine! What is the plan?"
"If I tell you, it will not be a surprise." Sarah enjoyed teasing him.
"Baby, your surprises scare me. Tell me at least something." Aiden pleaded.
"Only if you promise not to… help."
"Fine!" Aiden frowned.
Sarah thought for some time, enjoying the sight of Aiden\'s rising impatience. "I will take care of Liam."
"Liam? He is here also?" Aiden got alerted. He still didn\'t forgive him for trying to hit on Sarah while pretending to be his friend.
Sarah observed Aiden\'s expression and posture. If intensity of his grip on her hip didn\'t increase, she would not know how that he got upset when he heard that Liam is in the attendance.
"I got information that he will come here as Lindsay\'s plus one." Sarah giggled excitedly. She found out about that from messages on Lindsay\'s phone. "I can\'t imagine his expression when I face him… Let\'s go and dance."
JoAnna saw that Sarah and Aiden headed to the dance area and gestured to Jeff by tilting her head slightly toward them. "Shall we?"
Jeff had a conflicted expression.
JoAnna noticed that he is uncomfortable. "What is it?"
"I don\'t dance." His voice was faint. Jeff is afraid to disappoint her. They almost danced when they got engaged on the boat, but that was mostly standing while squeezing each other. And at that time it was just the two of them. There are people here!
JoAnna looked at him in disbelief. \'There is something Jeffrey White is not good at? Didn\'t we dance on that yacht when we got engaged?\' After thinking for a moment, JoAnna is not sure if that can be categorized as dancing. But she didn\'t want to tease him. "Everyone dances, come… I will show you." JoAnna enjoyed the idea that she gets to teach something to Jeff.
He was not able to refuse her anything, and they went to the dance floor.
It didn\'t take long for Jeff to move with the beat of the music with help of JoAnna\'s guidance.
As soon as he stopped focusing on his feet, Jeff realized that he has another problem. JoAnna is right in front of him, they are holding each other, their bodies almost touching. JoAnna maintained distance between them, but Jeff didn\'t like it, so he pulled her close and their bodies stuck together. As much as he didn\'t like distance between them, now he faced a bigger problem. He swallowed hard when he felt that his body is reacting. It felt so intimate, yet in a public place. He never cared about others, but he knows that if he starts being grabby with JoAnna on the dance floor, it will not be appropriate. And JoAnna maintained eye contact, which made it all more difficult. He was tormented by her gaze, her proximity, her scent… his grip on JoAnna tightened and his lips landed on hers. He was in agony when he realized that kiss only made his arousal increase.
Jeff leaned his forehead on JoAnna\'s and took a deep breath. "I don\'t think I can do this."
JoAnna observed his struggle and smiled. "You can. This is why people go dancing. This is why couples go out to public places. Remember this feeling and hold it until we are by ourselves at the end of the evening. It might be a struggle now, but it will make everything so much better later."
He looked at her and his eyes flashed in realization. "You are enjoying this."
"Of course, I do. I enjoy seeing you react like this to me." She smiled mischievously and kissed him. "Don\'t think that it\'s easy for me. I struggle to keep my hands to myself... You are very handsome."
This last part made Jeff smile. "Mhm, only for you." He kissed JoAnna and pulled her closer. Thought that all this is a type of foreplay made his mind relax and look forward to what is coming later, when they are alone.
Further away, Aiden chuckled. "So, the day has come… my brother made out of wood is dancing! I\'m sure mom is somewhere nearby sneakily taking photos."
Sarah can see that Jeff is not very proficient in dancing, but he is still doing it for JoAnna. Sarah scolded Aiden. "Don\'t say that. Look at him… he is doing it for love. That is the most romantic thing ever!"
"What? Dancing?" Aiden frowned. \'Aren\'t we doing that, and you are not praising me?\'
Sarah shook her head. "Not necessarily dancing… But doing something out of your comfort zone for the person you love, that is romantic."
Aiden deepened his frown and got into thinking.
Sarah rolled her eyes at him when she saw his exaggerated expression. "Now what?"
"I want to be romantic… so I\'m thinking what is the thing that I\'m not good at…" Aiden looked at Sarah and flashed his devilish smile. "Nope! There is no such thing. I\'m good at everything!"
Sarah laughed. "Try modesty… that is something you are horrible at."
Aiden lowered his arms so that they rest around her waist and pulled her close to him. His intense gaze told her that he is up to something. "You want your perfect man to be modest?"
Sarah stared at him for a second, unsure how to respond, and then she smiled. "I never said you should be modest. I only said you are lacking in that department… but since you are perfect, modesty is definitely not a requirement."
"Hmph… that was the correct answer." Aiden was happy with her response. He leaned in and placed his lips over Sarah\'s.
Sarah was thinking how Aiden is acting silly. Even when he calls himself perfect and appears to be so full of himself, Sarah knows that he is insecure and craves for praise and encouragement. But she will let him be. \'If this makes you happy, then I will let you have it.\' She leaned her head on his shoulder and enjoyed feeling him close.
"So… when are you two going to start with execution of your plan?" Aiden was curious, and still a bit upset that Sarah does not want to reveal details.
"We are in phase one." Sarah giggled seeing Aiden\'s confused expression. "Now we are showing off and getting them agitated. When they are upset, they will be less careful. Then we move to next phase."
Aiden squinted his eyes. "How do you know if they are upset enough?"
"We will know." Sarah winked. "Call it a female intuition if you wish."
"And your next phase is…?" He still didn\'t give up on idea to squeeze information out of Sarah.
Sarah frowned a bit. She didn\'t want to tell him in advance. "Think of this like a movie. If you know the plot and ending, it will not be interesting to watch. Correct?"
"But I know how this will end." Aiden chuckled. "I\'m still waiting for a day to see you Hill sisters don\'t end up on a winning side."
Sarah flashed her best smile. "Don\'t wait for a day which is not coming. Besides, you knowing that we got this under control should be the reason to enjoy the show and let us do what we are good at."
Aiden exhaled, showing his I-am-not-happy pout. "Fine!"
Around the dance floor, numerous groups were discussing in low volume about two White brothers and their partners. The news already spread that two ladies are from Hill family in Seattle area. Someone even knew that the lady with Jeffrey is JoAnna and works in a hospital, while lady with Aiden is Sarah and she works at White corp., something computer related.
Slowly, people collected pieces of information and started forming pictures of their background.
The truth got mixed in and diluted with various other information, such as that two ladies are twins, hungry for money, and that they used underhanded methods to seduce two White brothers.
One rumor even went as far as to claim that Sarah is a violent thug and belongs to an underground fighting society… no one knows from where this rumor originated, but whoever heard it, they dismissed it right away. How can such a fair and skinny girl be capable of physical violence?
Many young ladies were heartbroken seeing two White brothers dancing and not looking away from their partners.
Two girls, Cox sisters, had the most ominous aura among all jealous ladies. They clenched their teeth, and murmured nasty comments, feeding the hatred in each other. "Bastards… sluts… how dare they?.... bitches… they are doing this on purpose, right? … we can\'t let this slide… those are our spots they stole… we will show them…"
