The Best Friend's Contract novel Chapter 28

''Thank you, Kenna for everything. You've been a great best friend and all you ever did is make me happy. I'm more than grateful for what you've done,'' I continue to speak as she looks into my eyes, ''And you're very beautiful, today.'' I add.

''Today? What about any other day?'' She raises an eyebrow, making me chuckle at the sight of her grin.

''Well, that's not fair because you're beautiful everyday. Honestly, I think I drooled a little bit and I'm only telling this to show how you are very mesmerising.'' I reply and she leans closer, wrapping his hands around my neck before letting out soft chuckles.

''You're welcome. I want to thank you for everything that you've done for me, too. There's no one out there that can replace you and I mean it . . . you will always be my best friend. No matter what we go through, we'll go through it together. Okay?'' She raises her right hand and I look down to find her lifting her pinky finger.

As my lips are curving up into a smile, I let my pinky finger entwine with hers and we both start to chuckle at one another—letting the cameras flash at us.

''I have a surprise for you. I'll be back,'' She whispers near my ear before walking away until she's out of my sight, Mia and Harley following behind her.

My eyes wander around to look for something particular that would come out as a surprise but my eyes landed on Julia who has a wide smile on her face as she heads towards me. Not just that but my mother is also trailing behind her which causes me to groan slightly but the smile never fading away from my face.

''Julia!'' I exclaim as she pulls me in for a hug.

''Welcome to the family!'' She says before patting onto my back which causes me to join her in laughters while my mother stands beside us with a glass of wine in her hand. ''You've made me the happiest mother alive for making my daughter happy. Thank you,'' She adds.

''Julia, that's—''

''Drop the bass, man, the bass get lower. Radio say, "speed it up," I just go slower, high like treble, puffing on them mids. The man ain't ever seen a booty like this,'' She points at her butt and the crowd claps, wooing even louder than before—leaving me chuckling but not placing a hand on her, at all.

They start to clap according to the beat as I turn to look at Alain, staring directly at Harley who is currently becoming one of Kenna's backup dancers with Mia. He has a smirk plastered on his face as he takes a sip of his wine, enjoying his wife's dancing to seductively attract him.

Just as I take a seat behind me, I start to see Kenna making her way towards me before sitting on my lap—wrapping her arms around my neck as she eyes down my lips. ''Do you like the surprise?'' She asks, her other hand on the side of my face.

With my lips curving up into a smirk, I pull her closer.
