Chapter 110 A Simp

Rachael slapped his hand away and glared at him before walking towards the kitchen.

When Andrew smiled and helplessly shook his head, Justin remarked, "Well, you are exceptionally chirpy this morning."

"Well, it's a bright and lovely day," he exclaimed as he walked towards his seat.

"Why are you here so early?" Andrew inquired.

"We have to go to Welimberg city today, remember?" When he frowned, Justin sighed, "You forgot about it, didn't you?"

"No—" Andrew shook his head. "I remember. I just forgot to tell Rachael."

"We will be back by evening."

"I know but I had plans of taking her for a date tonight."

"Look at you—" Justin chuckled, "When did you become a simp?"

"Well—" Andrew looked at Rachael who was talking with Owen at the dining table and smiled, "She is worth simping over."

[Evening]

Though she didn't have a very bad hangover, Rachael still felt weird after the intense drinking session of last night.

Since Andrew had left with Justin and Owen to take care of some work and wouldn't be back till the evening, she decided to stay back home and rest for the day. She ended up spending the day sleeping and watching movies.

As she was about to take another quick nap before dinner, she received a message from Andrew.

[Andrew: Did you eat lunch?]

[Rachael: Hmm, I did. What about you?]

[A: We stopped for a quick snack earlier. I am already on the way back, I'll be home by 9]

[R: Okay, come safe]

After some time, she received a message again.

[A: Owen wants to stop by Justin's club, should I go?]

Rachael looked at the text and blinked in confusion. Was he seeking her permission?

As she was typing her reply, another message popped up.

[A: If you say no, I will not go]

She smiled and quickly called him instead of sending him a text.

As soon as he answered, she inquired, "So if I tell you not to go, you won't?"

"Yes, I will do as you say," Andrew answered without any hesitation.

Without waiting for her reply, he said, "Screw it, I'll come straight to you."

"No, you should go with your friends and hang out with them for a while." Though she would love it if he came home as soon as possible, she didn't want him to ditch his friends for her.

"Okay then, I'll come back as soon as possible," he sighed.

"Don't drink much if you have to drive," she reminded him.

"Ben is with me," he answered. "But don't worry, I won't drink."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

After hanging up the call, Rachael lied down to take a nap when her phone started vibrating again.

Thinking Andrew had called her back, she quickly grabbed it from the bedside table. But when she looked at the caller ID, it was an unknown number.

When she answered the call, a silence greeted her.

"Hello? Who is it?" She inquired.

"Rach—"

Rachael tightened her grip around her phone as she slowly got up. How could she not recognise the voice?

"Oliver—" she muttered.

"But seriously bro, if this time you hurt my sister, I am gonna kick your ass," Owen threatened Justin.

"Not gonna do it again, okay?" Justin assured him. "I need her with me for the rest of my life."

Owen looked at Ben and Andrew who were still discussing business and frowned, "For the love of God, stop—" He snatched the file from Ben's hand. "We are here to chill, okay?"

He then handed a glass of wine to Ben. "Here, drink this and relax."

Ben received the glass and thanked Owen before taking a sip.

"Don't make our Ben work so hard Andrew," Justin remarked. "I can see that he has already lost a few pounds after following you here."

"Ahh—I knew I heard familiar voices," Samuel exclaimed and he approached the group.

All the four men frowned and glared at him when he shamelessly took a seat and started pouring himself a glass of wine.

"What?" Samuel inquired as he took a sip.

"What the f*uck are you doing here?" Owen frowned. He hated the guy from his gut.

"I am treating myself to a glass of wine since this guy—" He looked at Justin. "Didn't even thank me after I helped him bring happiness back in his life."

"What is he talking about?" Andrew looked at Justin.

"Ignore him," Justin remarked.

"Anyway—" Samuel shrugged. "Since I have already invited myself in, let me strike a conversation as well."

"How are things going on with Rachael?" He inquired as he looked at Andrew.

"Why do you ask?"

"No I mean—don't get me wrong but—" Samuel paused for a couple of seconds. "Given how she almost married someone else before you came into the picture, I was just curious."

When Justin, Owen and Ben frowned at him, Samuel shrugged his shoulders. "What? Isn't that true?"

"You seem to be awfully interested in the affairs related to my wife," Andrew remarked. "Whether she almost got married or if she was with someone else in the past doesn't concern you at all."

Ignoring his words, Samuel curiously inquired, "Aren't you worried that you are just a rebound?"

"Dude—get the f*uck out of here before I punch the shit out of you," Owen glared at him. He was done taking his shit.

"Why are you people getting so hyped up? Am I saying anything wrong?" Without waiting for their reply, Samuel explained, "A woman has recently got out of a serious relationship. And not just a normal relationship, she was all ready to spend the rest of her life with him. But things didn't go as she had planned and the guy left her. Fast forward, twelve months later, she suddenly agrees to marry a guy she barely knows."

Pausing for a while, he added, "So are you people telling me that there isn't a tinie tiny chance that her new husband is her rebound to help her get over the ex she was once deeply in love with?"
