Chapter 143 - Lover Part 3

Andel fixed himself, from his hair to his suit and pants. It was great quick sex and he missed his little girl dearly, so he suggested his boss buy foods from the restaurant of Pattinson and he will pick it up by himself.

Ellen put her panties back and she smiled at him lovingly. He caressed her hair and kissed her forehead.

"I'll be coming home late." He told as he fixed her hair.

"I'll be waiting."

He looked around her office and check the designs for her designs on the next restaurant in McKinley Hill. He is so proud of her.

"Why can't we tell my brother about our relationship?" She suddenly asked. "He came to me and wanted to know about you."

"Well," He paused. "Your brother loves you so much and I was his best friend back then. We haven't contact each other for long and I stick on this mission. I was angry at him when he left Andy. But can't blame him. They are so much into each other that they forget the world around them which is a reality. Maybe, it's good that they separated so they could make themself even better."

"And?"

"I stop contacting him after that incident. He tried to contact me to say sorry or something. But, I have to distance. Missions are getting more and more dangerous and your safety is my priority."

Ellen became quiet for a while and she looked up at him.

"If you aren't in that mission, would you be with me without hiding from everyone?"

Andel knelt on the carpet in front of her and scooped her jaw.

"Hey, even if I wasn't in the mission, I would gladly and happily introduce you to everyone I know. For now, we have to be sneaky. I love you so much that I could just keep you in my house and not to show you to everyone."

Ellen pouted and hugged him.

"We can get married tomorrow or right now." She said. Andel laughed and hugged her back.

"My little girl. I would marry you every day... But for now, we have to keep each other like this."

"Okay." She is still sad about it. But yeah, she needed to be safe. She doesn't want him to get worried or something.

Andromeda watched as her husband eat quietly. She bit her lip and give him more meat. They eat quietly for a little while and then she broke the silence.

"Zachy."

"Eat more." He fed her more with the shrimps that he peeled off the shell and another after another. She pouted and continue chewing.

He's probably mad for not telling him about Ellen's lover, so this is her punishment. But anyway, she ate a lot and let him give her more of the foods until she told him not to order anymore and that she's already full. Then after they check out, he took her to a cafe and brought teas as they walked around. He didn't hold her hand but she wrapped herself around his arms.

"Hubby, don't be mad."

"Tsk." He kept his left hand on the pocket of his pants while his other hand is holding the tea.

"I'm sorry. But I promised him not to tell anyone. I'm sorry, okay?" She pouted at him and she flutters her eyelashes.

"Andromeda." He warned her.

"I'll just sing for you. This latest song by Taylor Swift... How about that?"

"Let's walk more."

Andy pouted and looked at him.

"I love you." She said sweetly. Zach stopped so as she did and he exhales and looked up. Then he looked down at her as he pressed his lips. She smiled lovingly. "Je t'aime."

"You little one, tricking me again." He kissed her lips. "I love you more."

She flushed and squeezed his arm more. After their long walk, their driver picked them up and drove all the way to the company building. Then, she walked with him hand in hand on the way to his office. She went to his personal lodging area and took the guitar displayed there. Then she put the belt around her and started strumming the guitar and then sings to him.

"Can I go where you go?

Can we always be this close forever and ever?

And ah, take me out and take me home

You're my, my, my lover..." She sang so sweetly. Zach put down his pen and turn to her as she sings.

He listened to every lyric and admire her more.

"Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand?

With every guitar string scar on my hand

I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover

My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue

All's well that ends up with you

Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover

And you'll save all your dirties jokes for me

And at every table, I'll save you a seat, lover..."

He stood and walk around her and stand behind her, hugging her as she strummed the guitar and sang more to him. He leaned his chin over the shoulder.

"Sorry to interrupt you on your work." She said and enjoy more of his embrace.

"It's okay. I love you more than my work."

"Good." She smiled with a flushed.

Fox and Ellen arrived in the penthouse. Fox locked it and then roam around to check if someone had snooped in, then he retired to his room, take a quick shower and then lay on his bed. He sighed.

He's just tired and he wanted to sleep as soon as possible. He closed his eyes and he fell into a deep sleep. It's like he's fall in an endless whole but then, he found herself in the middle of something dirty and then... A highway?

It felt familiar and it's in the city in their country. Okay... So, then he saw some grabbing and woman running after the snatcher and then she got hit by a truck. Right in front of him.

He was shocked. How can not he see that coming?

After that incident, he felt like half of him died. And he woke up, and he held his chest. Wow, that's the first. How can he felt that to be so real? Even the wind and the dust coming from the polluted city felt so real.

He puffed some air. The woman is familiar like she was the one in his dreams. So, she died? What? Or is she already dead?

"Shit," he muttered. "Fucking-shit." He cursed again.
