Chapter 13: Chapter 13

In the evening of the next day, Leah had waited for Lauren through the night and the entire day but she didn't see him, he didn't finish on time, so he didn't return to her nor to Mandy.

He is just driving in, when he saw Leah in his mansion, also driving in.

What thy fuck are you doing here? You were gone the whole night and day and my body ache for you.

What is wrong with you? You could just give me a call.

You are not picking. Lauren bring out his phone so many missed calls. I didn't know that...

It's fine, I am here now. She kissed him. Stop it, go back to the condominium.

No way, I can't, I will die on my way back. Leah said as she place little kisses on his face making he staggered into the building.

Leah! Lauren called in frustration, Mandy is coming out of the room, she is hungry, she haven't been out the entire day as well, she had cry out her eyes, she just want to grab a quick bite and go back to her room, as she walked towards the kitchen, she could hear slight noise, she wasn't expecting anyone to still be awake since it's passed ten already.

Even if they are, not in Lauren's living room, he could kill for that, as she move further into the dim living room, she could see a man and a woman kissing passionately.

Her eyes bulge out in shock, is assuredly Leah and Lauren on the couch in the living room.

Leah, stop messing around, we could do this at the condominium not here. Lauren try to suppress his desire, he doesn't want Mandy to see the scene but too bad the girl is assuredly watching a live smut.

What? Are you afraid that your contract wife, will see us? Leah response is irritating and annoying. Don't worry, she will not mind, she knows you are mine and mine alone, no one but me.

Leah... He wanted to stop her but she kissed him more.

You are such a stirrer, let's go to the room. The man said seductively

No way, that we take too long, I can't, I want it here and now, I don't fucking care if she see it. In a second she unbutton the man's shirt.

Mandy tears drop, she try to control herself, not to yelled after all, the man is not even in love with her nor is she in love with the man, she couldn't believe that Lauren could have another woman right in front of her, how could he be so heartless? She run into her room and lock the door.

Leah stop it, I can't do this here. Lauren pushed her from his top. Are you avoiding me now because you have her last two night? She is not even a Virgin or is she? She can't, so don't you dare lie to me, she has a boyfriend for four years remember.

Lauren pulled Leah off from the couch, dragging her into his car and zoom off, getting to his condominium, Leah could wait anymore, so he had her in his car.

You are satisfied now? Lauren asked her, she smiled. Yes but tell me, between her and me, who is...

Stop it, nothing happened between us and get off my car. Lauren yelled, she hurry down. Leah!

Lauren called, she turned, he throw Money at her.

Used it for your pills! Leah smiled, money is everything she wanted money and that is what she is getting.

Mandy is getting ready to go out, she is fully groom, Lauren is walking into the living room, his appearance remind her of yesterday incident, she shakes her head to pushed the thought away. Where are you going? Lauren asked as he sit in the dining.

A friend's bachelorette party.

What is her name?

Mercy!

Who and who will be there?

Everyone of our friends.

Including Noor? Lauren asked, she fall her face, Mercy assuredly wanted Noor and Mandy as her bestman and maid of honor. Go on.

Probably!

You are not going. Mandy look at him. Yes, you are not going.

But...

Mandy no, you will not go there. Lauren jealous is at the peak, not that he has feelings for the girl in front of him or maybe, he has but he is not aware of it yet.

Please, I am her maid of honor, I can't afford to...

Don't patronize me. Lauren dart out of the room leaving his meal behind, Mandy sighed.

Haven't I sacrificed enough, he is still with his girlfriend and me, I have to let go of mine. She wiped her tears, she texted mercy that she can't come not even for the bachelorette.

Larry is watching Tessa as she prepare his meal.

Hey why are staring?

Did you know you are beautiful? Tessa look at Larry. Yes, I was just wondering why that idiot cheated on you.

Is his lost not mine. Tessa said. Go on and eat. She caress his face, Larry stare at her, when the stare start burning, Tessa move away from him.

Ahem! She clear her throat. Go on and eat. Her sweet voice came up again, Larry fall his face and start eating, Tessa was staring at him as he munch on his food without parting his lips, in a second she is admiring the man in front of her.

Why does he look so hot in her eyes all of a sudden? She shakes her head, it's just Larry Daniel, the son of the richest man in Singapore and her best friend not anyone else.

Larry raise his head and caught her gaze, she fall her eyes. I will just do the dish, why you eat. She said so fast, Larry move his head because his mouth is full with food, she move to the sink to do the dirty dishes, he is done eating he walked behind Tessa, all of a sudden his manly chest is pressed behind Tessa back, she drop the plate accidentally.

Tessa, careful! He said, the words are like seduction to her, she closed her eyes, then came his breath on her neck as he wash his hands, Tessa held her breath, she doesn't seem to understand herself all of sudden

Let's see a movie together. He said, that is the best part of him, he always like to watch movies with her, she nodded almost like she is going to drop dead in no time, she wipe her hand, she turn only to hit Larry chest, he held her, their eyes meet again, Tessa found herself, raising her hand and caress his lips, he was falling his lips to her, she withdrew, taking two step.

Come on! Come on! She said it twice in less than a second, Larry gasped, running his hand on his neck and move behind her.

The two sit to watch, as they watching the movie, the couple in the movie all of suddenly start to kissed, Tessa felt so uncomfortable again, Larry notice that, he pulled her to himself, making her sit on him.

Are you alright? He asked as his breath meet her neck again, she closed her eyes, Larry turn her face to him. Open your eyes, the scene is gone. He said, Tessa open her eyes slowly, he knows that Tessa always feel uncomfortable when it come to romantic scene because she haven't done this before, even though she had a boyfriend, that break up with her even before their first month anniversary but what he doesn't know now, is that he is the one making her uncomfortable not the movie.

You see it's gone. Larry said, she nodded and move away from Larry.

Ahem! She clear her throat, she have forgotten how many times, she had clear her throat just to sound normal. so tell me how did that handsome brother of yours welcoming of wife goes.

Stop discussing me. Lauren voice came from behind, the two turn, Tessa live in a small apartment in town, she is an orphan, even though the boys life are the opposite of hers, they don't seem to mind, the cold Lauren could smile at this girl, hugged her and doesn't get irritated, he regards her as family, as long as she is Larry's friend, he is cool with her.

I wasn't discussing about you, I was talking about your wife not you.

Whatever! Lauren throw his mask from his face. I am hungry...

Didn't your wife, give you food? Larry asked as Tessa bring food for Lauren. Make it two, I am hungry again. Larry said again, Tessa just smiled, Larry never get satisfied, like he has a drum in his tummy.

Don't asked me. He start eating. Big bro, your wife is really pretty. Tessa said. I know and that beauty is making her misbehave, how could she wants to be with her... He pause, Larry and Tessa look at him, Tessa phone ring.

Take your call and stop staring at me. Lauren speak

I will take this call. She picked her phone, she hurry into the washroom, Larry stand. Where are you going?

Nowhere! Lauren ogle at him and smiled, he could see that Larry is jealous, no words is heard just the sound of her laughter, Larry sighed, they finish eating but Tessa is still on call.

Tessa!

Larry yelled, Tessa end the call in hurry. Do you need anything? Tessa asked him.

Who is calling you? Larry asked in anger, Lauren just ignore the two. Go on and answer me.

Fine, it's a boy, I met on my...

And the next thing, he is calling like you two are dating?

I thought you...

Tessa, I don't want to see that boy near you. Lauren stared at Larry.

But you said...

Stop, I meant it.

You can't tell me what to do, this is my life.

Tessa!

Yes Larry, this is my life.

I was just protecting you.

Don't protect me, you are not my dad. Her words hurt Larry, he grab his keys, he is heading out, Lauren stand to leave too.

Larry wait. Tessa called out for him but he didn't turn.

Let him be, baby girl! Lauren said, he go after his brother, throwing his keys at the security, he goes with Larry, the boy throw the keys to the table, in anger immediately he enter the building.

How could she be so stupid to fall for his sweet nonsense?

Larry, let her be, the fact that, her ex boyfriend is a madman, that doesn't mean, she...

She can't. Larry voice came up.

You like her? Lauren question him, he grabbed his keys.

You are talking nonsense. He dart out of Lauren's mansion, Lauren fall to the couch and run his hand on his hair, Mandy walk into the living room, she get her glass and juice, she is wearing a short skirt, she has no knowledge that Lauren is back.

She didn't say a word to him, Lauren walked passed her too not after ogling at her fine hairy legs, not a word from him to her.
