Chapter 160: Chapter 160
Go on and look at it.
John open his eyes slowly, Lauren is looking at him, his gaze didn't leave him, John gasped for air as soon as he saw the picture on the phone.
Tessa!
You know her?
Of cause, she is sir Larry's best friend, that later became his girlfriend.
Interesting! John look at him. So?
Oh! The two break up, sir Larry said, she is cheating on him with sir Kendrick.
Kendrick? Lauren closed his eyes, he had heard that name before.
Yes, sir Kendrick, is your cousin, he is a very close family member.
My brother! He take that part like a whispered, John couldn't make out, what he said about him.
And?
Tessa couldn't take it, so she left, leaving sir Larry not just to worry about you but also Tessa, he is sad, he just used you as a cover-up for his grieve.
Okay!
Is there anything Else you want to know, Sir?
Which means, Larry was neglecting her because of my condition?
No sir! Don't blame yourself for it, everyone was worried about you, considering the fact that, we just lost... He press his lips together.
It's fine, I will just go on now.
Sir Larry, really love Tessa, he is going to get his life back, if Tessa comes back and I don't think, Tessa will ever think of having an affair with sir Kendrick, she is a nice girl, she was even friends with your wife.
Wife? Was I Married? John press his lips together, Lauren doesn't even remember that he was married to anyone, his own thoughts, was that, he is in love with the girl he had an accident with.
Yes wife... We all call her that?
Okay!
Lauren stand to leave, John gasped for air, he had said more than he supposed to say, then Lauren turned and look at him, John froze, seeing Lauren part his lips about to say something.
Please! Don't asked that? He said like a whisper.
Thanks! John gasped more for air, he walked closer to him. You know, I hate lies, one thing, I will never take, is you lying to me and I don't know what you are thinking, I want to asked but it's fine.
He didn't wait for another response before taking his steps out of the mansion, John fall to the couch, president Daniel, would had killed him, if he had spill the beans, to every staff, Amelia is mandy, since Lauren doesn't remember Mandy's name, there is no need of changing her name.
Going back to the mansion, Tessa had already left, he look at the girl on the couch playing with her teddy, he had been looking at her for more than twenty minutes, she didn't notice, she raised her face all of a sudden, only to see Lauren staring at her.
Hey, why are you looking at me? She stand from the couch.
I was wondering, when are you going to show me, your face?
I don't want to.
Fine, but please, don't ever leave me. He hugged her and cry on her shoulder, she doesn't understand the reason behind the tears, she too just felt Lauren could need one, she hugged him back. Why did you hug me?
I just felt you might need one. Lauren titter, she stared at him, she just can't place his behavior. Are you alright?
Too perfect to get sick. Even if his heart is saying something else, he still want to act strong in front of her.
Sit! I have something to tell you...
You are planning a little party?
How did you know that?
Your phone! She looks at the phone then Lauren. Yes, you even want to invite Dylan, even after I told you, I don't want you calling him.
Larry! She yelled in frustration, Lauren titter.
He Didn't tell on you, I know, every call you make, I will know about it.
Did you...
Yes! I am worried, I can't afford to put your life in danger, so I had to do that, don't worry, it's not like you have a boyfriend that you want to call.
What if I have? Saying that, Lauren grabbed her hand.
You wouldn't dare, you are mine.
Ouch! It hurt. The pain in her hand, didn't make her take notice of the words Lauren was saying.
Sorry! Sorry! He dart inside, he can't believe he is been possessive again, after dinner, he is on the same bed with her, he just can't sleep, she climb down.
Where are you going?
Wait, I am coming. She hurry into the study, coming back with a book title, CEO BOYFRIEND FOR RENT.
What is that? She turned the cover face to him, he read.
CEO BOYFRIEND FOR RENT.
I want to read it for you. Lauren smiled and tap the empty space beside him, as soon as she jump on that bed, she reads.
Dear future hubby, these are the things, I want form you, I just want you to been handsome, tall, intelligent, caring; a CEO; even though not having a company, you could CEO my heart but you don't have to been a cheat because I hate cheat and my heart is broken alot of times, I might die from another heart break. Let my present give you breath.
Lauren watch her as she read, he wondered, how did she managed to read with the hair on her face, still in his thoughts, she takes the other part.
She throw the bottle into the sea...
Hey wait up, what did she put in the bottle?
The letter to her future husband, hey relax, let me continue.
Fine go on!
She is going to attend a family ball, without a date, oh! It's an abomination, for the heiress of the family to attend one without a date but how could she, have one, when she have no boyfriend, her step sister just deprive her of her boyfriend, she need to rent one, just maybe a CEO BOYFRIEND FOR RENT will...
She raised her head only to see Lauren is already fast asleep, her voice is like lullaby to him, she used the bedspread to cover him, she is about to get down from the bed, he grabbed her hand.
Sleep with me! Her eyes bulge out, thinking that Lauren meant something else, but the young man didn't want any other thing, he just wants to remain in her hand, that is all he want, he could feel it that this girl in his hand is the one woman his heart beat for, no one else but her.
Even if she is not the woman he risk his life for at first, he would rather risk his life again for this woman than that stupid girl called Amelia.
If she could make him happy even without trying to find out about her past? Then her past is nothing, he just want to remain in her hand forever, if he could do this all his life, he doesn't care.
