Passion Overseas: A Billionaire BWWM Holiday Romance by BWWM Club, J A Fielding, Jennifer Fielding

it slip that calling off the wedding was
your idea,” Emily said frowning. Erica sighed and Daniel
cleared his throat.
    “ You
have been letting a lot of things slip lately, haven’t you?”
Erica said.
    “ You
know what, I’ll just be over there,” Daniel said as he
headed back into the suite. Erica looked at the screen and shook her
head.
    “ So,
she wants to talk? But I don’t want to talk. She’ll get
all sad and…” Erica started.
    “ Hey,
I had my fair share of parental drama. Now it’s your turn, damn
it,” Emily said as she looked at her. Erica shook her head.
    “ Fine.
I’ll call her once we land. Okay maybe a week after we land,”
Erica said in a soft voice.
    “ Should
I maybe send you a bottle of wine to get your courage built up?”
Emily asked.
    “ Yeah,
we’re taking a trip to Napa this weekend,” Cassandra said
excitedly.
    “ You
know what, if you do remember to actually send the bottle, just send
it over to my place. Right now, I have to go. I did mention the
midnight thing, right?” Erica said as she ran her fingers
through her hair.
    “ Alright,
sleepy head. Go to bed,” Emily said as she looked at her
sister.
    “ Good
night guys,” Erica said smiling.
    “ We
love you,” Cassandra and Emily said in unison.
    “ Love
you too,” Erica said before she finally hung up. She threw her
head back and took a long deep breath. She got up and walked back
into the suite where Daniel was waiting for her dressed in nothing
but his pajama bottoms. He was seated with one leg over his lap,
lazily sipping on a hot beverage. Tea, Erica gazed. He had a weird
thing for tea, almost like a British guy.
    “ All
done with your family call?” he asked as she walked back in.
She nodded and sat next to him. He draped an arm around her shoulders
as she nodded. “Want me to make you some tea?” he asked.
    “ You
know, I don’t really get your weird obsession for tea. Why
can’t you just have coffee like a normal American?” she
asked as she looked up at him.
    “ You
really have no idea, do you?” he asked.
    “ No
idea about what?” she asked. He smiled and nodded before he
grabbed the phone. “What are you doing? Who are you calling?”
she asked as he put the cup down and dialed the reception.
    “ Room
service? Can I have a pot of chai tea sent up to my suite?” he
said smiling at Erica. “Ten minutes? Good enough,” he
said before he hung up.
    “ What
the hell do you think you’re doing?” she asked as she
looked at him.
    “ Getting
you to taste what you have been hating on,” he said. She looked
at him and shook her head.
    “ You
like tea…strangely colored tea, if I must say,” she said
as he looked at her. He handed her his cup and she frowned. “No,”
she said.
    “ Come
on. There are so many types of tea just like coffee. So you will
never know what you like if you don’t try it,” he said.
She rolled her eyes and took a sip. He was watching her intently as
she listened for the taste.
    “ Not
bad,” she said.
    “ Wait
until you try the chai,” he said.
    She shook her head
and raised an eyebrow over the other.
    “ If
I must be terribly honest, I have to say that I think chai is
overrated,” she said.
    “ Tell
me that again in ten minutes,” he said as he took back his cup
of tea. She rolled her eyes and he began sipping on his tea.
    For the next few
minutes, they talked about anything and everything concerning their
trip to Belize. Suddenly, the next morning seemed forever away. “I
can’t wait to be in Central America,” he said as he
looked at her. Just then, she heard a knock on the door. Daniel
looked at her and smiled before he walked to the door. Erica heard
hushed conversations before Daniel walked back in pushing a trolley
in front of him. She looked up at him as he poured her a cup of the
steaming spicy tea.
    “ I
have a feeling I am going to regret this,” she said as he held
the cup out to her.
    “ Just
try it,” he said with a smile. Erica rolled
