ADELE Liam was already waiting outside with the car, so we set out immediately Chris and I got into the car. The ride went on forever and when it finally stopped, I muttered irrelevant things to myself tiredly. Chris stepped down from the car and I opened the door of the car by my side as well, only to meet Chris already waiting there to open it for me. I smiled helplessly at him and he scratched the back of his neck childishly. "Boss, Mrs. Marvin," Liam suddenly called out respectfully and I looked up to see him standing in front of Chris and me. He bowed slightly as he stretched our luggage towards us. I collected mine from him and Chris collected his luggage from Liam as well. "I wish you a safe trip, boss," Liam said politely as he looked to and fro between Chris and me.Trip?I turned to look at Chris immediately and I saw him give Liam a positive nod with a small smile on his face. Liam went back into the driver seat and I blinked continuously as I watched the car drive of
ADELE "Adele!" Someone called out to me as they shook my body. "Adele!" It seemed more urgent than before. Okay, I think that voice sounds too familiar. "Wake up or I am going to leave you here," Chris said and my eyes shot open immediately. "What?" I asked with wide eyes and he smiled. "Nothing, it's time to get off the plane," he told me and I furrowed my brows at him. "We have arrived?" I asked and he nodded twice at me. I groaned as I held my right hand over my head. I can't believe we've finally gotten to wherever this is. The flight went on for so long, I almost thought we had missed our way. After I finished eating my steak, I read the first few pages of the magazine and slept off. After a while, I woke up and I saw that Chris was sleeping already. I visited the bathroom, read the magazine, and watched a comedy as I tried so hard not to laugh out loud, then I ate and slept again. "Come on," Chris said before standing up from his seat and I followed suit. We followed
ADELEMy eyes shot open as they trailed back to Chris's face and all of a sudden, he lowered his head. His face is right in front of mine and his eyes stared right into my soul. "What- what are you doing?" I tried asking again but Chris only moved closer.My hands went flat against the cold wall as I pushed my head back more. His face moved closer once again and I gulped. He suddenly tilted his head to the side before sniffing my hair, then my neck. "You don't stink to me," he suddenly said as his breath fanned the side of my neck and I felt shivers run down my spine. I closed my eyes as I felt something stir in my lower stomach. "Are you sleeping?" Chris asked and I opened my eyes instantly. He has moved back from me and I was about to scold him when we heard the ding sound. The elevator. I muttered irrelevant words at him before pulling my luggage out of the elevator. He caught up with me after and we soon found our suite at the left hand side of the hall. I glanced around t
ADELEIt took a long while and Chris still isn't back from wherever it is that he went to. I have finished unpacking my clothes as well as his and placed them in the closet already. I walked out of the room to have a sip of water and I sighed after I was done drinking. I went back into the bedroom before picking up my phone from the bed. I searched for Chris's number and called it and to my dismay, I heard that familiar ringtone resounding loudly in the room. I looked around with my eyes wide open and there it was, the joggers Chris had worn to this place. I walked to it before picking it up from the floor. I searched the pockets and there it was, Chris's phone. Gosh! I feel like I am going crazy right now. I gripped the phone tightly in my hand as I glared down at it with a short hiss. Where did Chris go without his phone with him? God, I can't believe this. He brought me here and he just left like that? He is so going to pay for this.I dropped my phone and his phone on the b
ADELEChris took his seat beside me before standing up again. He carried the cake out of the paper box and put the box on the table, farther away from us. I stared at the cake in front of me before I heard his soft, masculine voice once again. "Happy birthday," he said again and I turned to look at him."Thank you," I replied with misty eyes. I blinked and a bead of tear fell from my left eye. "Why are you crying?" Chris asked before reaching out to clean the tear that had fallen. "I can't believe that I forgot," I admitted and he smiled. "I am happy you did," he replied and I stared at him in confusion. "What?" I asked back and he said it again. "I am happy you forgot about your birthday," he spelled out again and I took in a deep breath through my mouth. "Why?""If you had remembered, then all of my surprises would have been ruined," he said and I bent my head to the side a bit in support."Yeah, it would ruin it all," I replied with a short laugh and Chris chuckled."Wait
ADELE"Veronica remembered it's my birthday today," I said as I tried cutting my steak with the knife."Oh," Chris replied and I nodded. I brought the steak to my mouth before turning to look at Chris. "It is weird that nobody remembers it," I notified as I chew and Chris chuckled loudly. I clicked on the screen of my phone that is on the table and the phone came alive. I still have no notification from any of the social networks I am on. How can that be?"What's so amusing?" I inquired with a raised brow. "Nothing," he said as he looked down at his plate."Chris," I called out and he looked at me immediately. He stared at me for a long time before finally admitting, "I turned off your wifi this morning"My eyes widened instantly when he said it. I knew he did something when I heard him chuckle like that. He suddenly swapped my plate with his and I looked down at the plate in front of me. Chris has cut the steak into smaller bits for me. I smiled when I saw it."I could not let
ADELE"A baby," Chris replied and my eyes widened the more, if that's even possible. I searched his face and they gave no information to me about what he just asked."What?" I inquired back in a very calm voice. I don't know what to think or say about what he just asked. My head is all blank. "I am joking," he said with a grin on his face and I released the breath I did not know I was holding. "God," I sighed before placing my forehead on his. "Do you want one?" I asked, my lips close to his. "Yes," Chris replied and I took my forehead off him immediately. Well, what was I expecting his answer to be?Of course, he wants a baby!"From me?" I questioned without reasoning and Chris smiled. "If not you, then who?" he asked back and I felt that sting at the back of my eyes. My eyes went blurry and I looked down from his face as I closed my eyes. "I am not saying now, like right now. I am just saying that I want a baby with you, in the future." Chris explained and I rest my weight
ADELEI woke up to someone shaking me vigorously. I did not need to be told or notified before I knew who the person was. I opened my eyes slowly before forcing myself to frown at Chris who is standing beside me. "Get up and have breakfast," he said to me and I groaned. I pushed the duvet up to my shoulders before turning to face away from him and dropping the duvet to cover my face."Babe?" Chris called out to me and I moved around impatiently on the bed- not bringing my head out for once- until it was all quiet again. I tried closing my eyes but the sleep won't come and my thoughts went to Chris. Is he gone already? That quickly?I was about to bring my head out of the duvet to check if he is really gone when the duvet suddenly went off me. My eyes widened as I sat up on the bed immediately and turned my head to look at Chris. He has a frown on his face as he gripped the duvet tightly in his hand. "You should have breakfast first," he said in a very cold tone before dropping
