Chapter 46 : What's the matter?

Andrea squinted her eyes as she nibbled on her bottom lips. She took a sharp breath before turning around.

"Mr. Wilson, I need more time," she mumbled in a low tone.

Sean snickered " More time? Why didn't I ask for more time when getting your friend's job back for her? You know what? Let's give ourselves more time, like you said. I will call the director to return Elena back home."

" No, please don't do that. Don't act this cruelly toward Elena. If she finds out, she will hate you," Andrea said with pouting lips.

" So? Is she my friend? Once she finds out I did it because of you, then we will see who she's going to hate."

" Mr. Wilson. There's no evidence that states that Andrea May Graham agreed to become your mistress; if there is, then show me. Show me, show me, she said, poking her index finger on his chest.

Sean yanked her hand away from his chest. " You think you are smart, right? " he smirked as he brought his phone and played a voice recording of her agreeing to his conditions.

Andrea widened her eyes as she tried to snatch the phone from him. With just him extending his hands a little, she couldn't reach the phone even after standing on the tip of her toes.

She lost her balance and almost fell on him, but Sean managed to grab her right on time. "Stop trying to act smart; even if you succeeded in deleting the audio, there are other ways I can get to you,honey."

Andrea stepped back a little from him. Like?"

" After I make sure Elena loses her job and no one takes her in ever again, she'll kick you out of the apartment with my babies, and then I will hire the best lawyer in America to fight for the custody of the kids, and of course I will win for sure once they find out your financial situation. Or rather, you become my good little mistress, and then no one will get hurt. What do you think? "

Her eyes turned misty immediately. " You are right. I can't escape from you even if I want to," she mumbled in a dejected tone.

Sean didn't want to fall for her tricks, even though he felt guilty as he watched her tears slide down her cheeks.

He moved closer to her and raised her chin slightly. He wiped her tears away and said, " Come over to my place tonight." With that said, he walked away.

Ignoring the gloomy look on her face, he went into his apartment. Drew made his way over to him. "Mr. Sonny called while you were away," he said, handing the phone back to Sean.

Sean called back immediately as he sauntered into his room. " Why did you call me? " he asked.

" Why aren't you picking up your mom's calls? She had to inform me that you are needed back in America."

" Why should I listen to her? Inform her that I'm not coming back now."

" It's about your father's health. She told me, His condition is quite bad, and you are needed back in America."

" I will call dad," Sean said.

He called Mr. Wilson multiple times, but it was to no avail. After giving it some thought, he called his mother, who picked it up instantly as if she had been waiting for his calls.

" What happened to Dad? "

"He's been diagnosed with prostate cancer," Mrs. Wilson said with a loud sigh.

" How is he doing now? Did you take him to the hospital? " Sean asked frantically.

" Yes, I took him to the hospital, and the doctor is on it. I was hoping you would come back to America," she said in a pitiful tone.

Sean rubbed the areas between his brows. " Mmm, "

Mrs. Wilson beamed happily. Okay, son, please be fast about it. Even in his condition, he has been questioning me about you."

" I need to hang up now," he said.

……..

Carmen shut her eyes as the blunt edge of the glass pierced deeper into her palm.

She was feeling so much anger towards to the extent that she could feel her blood boiling.

" Mom, get Sean back to America."

Mrs. Wallner walked forward and grabbed the glass from her hand. She threw it on the ground, and it shattered into tiny pieces.

" You are so foolish, Carmen. Didn't I tell you not to do it? Now Sean knows you are the one behind it. Do you think this will make him love you? He hates you now, and I just hope he doesn't call off the wedding after what you did to his girlfriend," Mrs. Wallner yelled at her furiously.

Carmen burst into tears. ’ I was just being jealous. I'm going to be his wife soon, but he doesn't even treat me well."

Mrs. Wallner's expression softened instantly. " I'm sorry for yelling at you, dear. I have talked to Sean's mother to speak to him, and hopefully she will be able to make him come back to America for the wedding.”

Carmen smiled faintly. " Mom, do you think I should go shopping? No, I will order a very nice dress," she chuckled.

Mrs. Wallner touched her cheeks. Yes, you should do that. Sean will always be yours," she said, giving her a reassuring smile.

" May, the food is burning! Tessa shouted, and Andrea snapped out of her thoughts.

She quickly turned off the burner. Ever since her discussion with Sean, she has been trying to get it all off her chest, but to no avail.

" Are you okay? You have been acting differently ever since you came in. Is there something bothering you? "

Andrea shook her head. " I'm fine," she replied as she walked out of the kitchen.

After checking on the babies and making sure they were having their naps, she glanced at her watch, and it was already 7 p.m. Realizing she had to go to Sean, she felt her heart pound faster.

" Jasmine, I have to... I want to ask Mr. Wilson something important. Inform Mom Tessa once I leave."

Jasmine nodded at her with a smile and said, " Sure, just go; I will watch the kids."

Andrea returned a smile before leaving the house.

She arrived at his doorstep and shut her eyes nervously for a while before tapping on the doorbell.

Sean opened up, and Andrea froze as she stared at what he was putting on. She blushed scarlet as she averted her gaze from his bathrobe and shorts.

" Will you stay there all day, stealing glances at my body? " he teased as he made way for her to come in.

Andrea made her way in and turned back to look at Sean, who was busy with the lock of the door. Just then, he suddenly turned around, catching her off guard before she could avert her gaze. Their eyes met, and total silence reigned in the living room.

Sean walked over to her, and the next thing she knew, he grabbed both of her hands and placed them on his naked chest. She tried to withdrew her hands, but Sean didn't let her.

" I know you have been craving to do this ever since you stepped into this place," he said cheekily.

"Lies!" A bright red crept on her cheeks.

Sean snorted as he let go of her hands. "Lies?" he murmured as he moved nearer to her.

Andrea gulped down her saliva as she stared into his eyes. Sean moved closer, and she inadvertently shut her eyes, and the next thing he tapped her on the shoulder, asking, " Are you sleepy or what? " He grabbed his phone from the table behind her.

She felt totally embarrassed as she avoided looking at his face. She wished at that moment that the ground would swallow her whole.

" Oh God! Andrea, when did you become a pervert? Did I really anticipate a kiss from him? " she thought to herself.

" This way," he gestured, and Andrea looked at him hesitantly.

" What's the matter? "

" I… I can't get intimate with you now. I mean, I haven't healed completely," she stuttered sheepishly.

The corners of his lips twitched slightly as recognition dawned on him. "Oh, you thought I called you over for sex? I get it now; you thought I wanted to kiss you the other time, mmm? " A small smile crept on his lips.

She blushed and shook her head vigorously. Even though she was feeling hesitant, she still proceeded to say, "Then why did you call me over? "

" I called you over to cook me dinner. This way to the kitchen," he pointed in the direction, and Andrea turned to look at him.

" Prepare me something nice and stop thinking about perverted stuff." He spanked her on the buttocks, and Andrea let out a shriek immediately.

She glared at him as he made his way into the room.
