Yes, Mr Knight novel Chapter 25

JAMIE

As I sat across the table from Mason Knight in a 5star restaurant,I couldn't stop myself from smiling. He was enjoying his meal-And I was enjoying watching him. He's so insanely Hot!!

Since we spent the entire week held up in his apartment in a sexual haze,Mason insisted on treating me to a nice dinner at a restaurant called Le'Artusi. It's a nice way to spend a Thursday.

Mason looked at me,with a smirk on his face."What's with the grin,Jamie?"

"I was just admiring how cute you are when you eat."I looked down at his plate,his food was devoured and he was almost done."You look like you're enjoying that?"

"We worked up quite an appetite,yet again. You've been keeping me busy." He winked at me."And I think we both know that I'm a lot more than just cute!"

"All the other women might not have seen the softer side to you-But I have.

You Mason Knight can be very cute, charming and kind when you want to be."

He rested back in his chair with a mischievous smirk on that perfect face of his."I try-For you and no one else. For the exception to my Rule."

For the exception to his Rule,how far would he go out of his comfort zone?

This is more than just sex and it's obvious. It's like we're in a relationship without using the actual term.

I folded my arms on the table in front of me and looked at him.The Irresistible Billionaire Mason Knight-It's to to know a little bit more about you."What's your favourite colour,Mr Knight?"

He chuckled,and looked at me like I was strange."Favourite colour-Are you serious?"

"Deadly!"I threw him a wink."I'm just trying to get to know you a little,I know that's not what you're used too.

It's just a simple game of questions and answers. Now answer my question!"

He sighed,and downed the contents of his glass."I like Red..On You!"

Isn't he smooth??

"My favourite is Blue,like a navy blue! My favourite flowers are Lilies. Living with Carmen she manages to kill every plant that I bring into the apartment,so I really hope to have a garden full of them someday."I smirked."What's yours?"

He chuckled."My favourite flower? Come on,Jamie. I'm a man! I don't do flowers. It's not very masculine of me to have a favourite flower."

Just as I thought. Asking a man about flowers is like threatening to chop his balls off."Oh,Come on!! You might not like them,but there must be one that you appreciate because of it's beauty."

He sighed."A Rose. It's the only flower I know,it was my Mother's favourite."He refrained from eye contact and glanced around the room at all the other couples eating and chatting at their tables.

I felt a deep sadness for him.Whenever his mother comes up in conversation he closes up and changes the subject.I extended my hand across the table and placed it on his."You can talk to me about her,You know."

He turned his head and looked at me, with a sigh."Jamie-I'm not.."

"Sweetheart.."My Mother's voice called from across the restaurant,causing me to turn my head. I turned my head and saw her and my Father making this way towards our table.

Fuck!! This is just a disaster waiting to happen. My Mom will be too overly Mom and calling Mason Knight her Son in law at first meet and my Father hates the ground he walks on.

What the hell are they even doing here?

"Um Mom-Dad..."I stood from my chair, smiling nervously but feeling a little uncomfortable. Not as uncomfortable as Mason I'm sure."What are you two doing here?"

My Mother pulled back from our hug. "Well since you and your brother decided to cancel on dinner,your Dad and I figured we would splurge and go out for a change."

Feeling guilty about that now! If I had of been a good girl and went to family dinner we wouldn't be in this situation."Sorry about that!"

My Father hugged me,but his eyes were on the man that was standing at the other side of the table. I already know how my Father feels about Mason,and being here in the same restaurant is only going to make it worse.

"I can see your reason for cancelling family dinner."My Dad looked at me and then back at Mason."This must be your Boss."

Of course my Father was making this completely embarrassing for all of us. How else am I going to introduce Mason? I can't bloody well say this is my Boss that I'm Fucking..Or this is my Boyfriend because I'm sure the guy would run for the hills.

It hasn't been that long,but I don't think Mason Knight would be comfortable with the term Boyfriend. Even if that's what we're acting like.

"This is Mason Knight."I looked in Mason's direction and smiled,because he was standing for introductions like a gentleman."Mason these are my parents."

"It's a pleasure to meet you both,Mr and Mrs Harris. You've raised a wonderful daughter."Mason extended his hand out and shook my Mother's before moving onto my Father. Of course my Father didn't say a word.

"It's lovely to meet you,Mason."My mother smiled at him,and could see that little twinkle in her eye. Oh Boy!!" Since you two already have a table set for four,we might as well join you for dinner."My mother looked at Mason."You don't mind,Do you?"

"No,No at all. Join us."Mason replied, before sitting back down in his chair. He looked at me and smiled but I could tell how uncomfortable he was.

Everyone was seated at the table when the waiter came by with menus for my parents. Mason and I were mostly finished our meal thankfully,it didn't mean an hour of embarrassing small talk.

"Jamie,I was talking to Ryan's Mother yesterday and she mentioned that he's not doing very well since your little break up."My Mother picked up her wine glass and took a few sips of her Chardonnay. Of course she would bring up the conversation right in front of another man.

"What do you mean he's not doing very well-What's wrong?"I glanced at Mason,a little uncomfortable about the subject and the questions I asked. But I needed to know.

"Just you,Jamie. Just you and No one else!!"He walked towards me and kissed me just as hot and passionate as he always has. I believed him..I believed that there would be no one else and I believed that he would change his mind given the time to do so.

My phone chimed in the pocket of my wool coat and I broke the kiss and pulled it out. Crap!!"It's my Father,He wants to talk.I should probably go over there."

Mason nodded his head."You've had a drink, My driver will drive you over. Come back to me after."

"I will. I'll call you."I kissed him again before walking towards the elevator.

My Father wants to talk to me,and of course I wasn't eager for the conversation. I already know that it's going to be the type of talk that isn't going to end well.

My parents kitchen was a war zone!!

My parents were arguing about our dinner at Le'Artusi. My Mother was disagreeing with everything my Father said and he wasn't at all happy about it.

To make things worse,my brother decided to show up for some leftovers and is now getting some entertainment to go along with his meal. He still manages to put in the odd joke at my expense while stuffing his face.

"You can't be serious about being involved with a man like that."He shouted yet again."He isn't the type of man that respects a woman. You know that."

I've been here thirty minutes and I was getting a headache listening to his raised voice."Please!! I don't want to hear it. I'm old enough to make these decisions for myself.I know him..I know he's not going to hurt me."

He sighed,moving his hands along his peppered hair."You work for him,Jamie. Your Mother and I have thought you better than to get involved with a man you work for.You've told us yourself what he's like,we've heard what type of man he is."

I folded my arms across my chest."I was wrong about him,Dad. He's not like I thought. He's different with me."

My Father shook his head."He's not, Sweetheart. Open your eyes and realise that this man isn't good enough for you. I don't want you seeing him again."

My Mother looked at him."Clay,You can't do that. You're not happy about this,but you can't stop Her. Jamie is old enough to make these decisions for herself."

My Father glared at Jake,laughing in his front row seat with a mountain of food in front of him."Don't start,Jacob!"He looked back at my Mom."Julia,I'm just trying to stop her from making a mistake."

I've heard enough!

I grabbed my coat and bag from the kitchen chair,fuming and unable to listen to anymore of him trying to control my life."I'm leaving. I've heard enough from you trying to control my life. You need to realise that I'm adult that's capable of making her own decisions."

I turned around and walked down the hallway towards the hallway,pulling open the front door and slamming it behind me. My father has never done this to me before,about any guy! That made me all the more livid with him.
