Chapter 24: Chapter 24

After two days of staying in Andrius' private yacht they decided to go home. Andrius suggested it. He noticed that Anya was always pale and sick. He was worried and offered her to see a doctor immediately but Anya declined.

"You are so stubborn!" Andrius hissed as Anya kept on saying no to his offer. His patience for the girl has also been curtailed.

"Why are you so weird? I really don't want to! One word is enough, Andrius. Do you want to ask, over and over again?" she replied.

The two were in the car and making their way to the girl's house. They always ended up fighting. Both were hot-headed. No one wanted to give up. But in the end, the young man still stopped when Anya was angry with him.

Andrius smiled at the thought. He also glanced at the girl sitting in front of him as she folded her arms around her chest. Eventually he laughed softly. He was definitely one crazy man in love.

"Why are you laughing? Did I say something funny?" Anya asked curiously while her one eyebrow lifted up.

"Nothing baby. I just love you," his temptation made the girl's head even hotter. Anya glared at the young man who was still grinning beside her.

The girl was silent as she was about to fight with the young man when they heard a call from her cellphone. Andrius answered immediately and collected the car audio via bluetooth.

"Hey! Montreal!" Andrius immediately greeted the other line. Anya's eyebrows rose when she heard the name he mentioned.

"What the fuck, dude. Take Anya home. Her Pappi is torturing me," Kraius complained to Andrius on the other line. Anya frowned. She didn't know what was happening. All she knew was that he had said goodbye to his father.

"We're coming, Montreal. So calm your tits. You're such a gay!" Andrius commented. He slowed down the car when he saw Anya's house a few meters away. He also grabbed the girl's hand and held it.

"What is happening?" Anya asked in astonishment. It robbed the young man who was just driving in front.

“Nothing baby. Montreal was just overreacting,” the young man replied.

The girl doubtfully turned to Andrius but her mouth remained shut. She glared at Andrius then just turned his eyes outside the car.

"Here we go, baby. We're here." Andrius said as he stopped the car. He moved closer to Anya and removed the seatbelt in her body. Before the girl could move, he kissed her on the top of her head.

Anya didn't protest. She let him kiss her. She was also tired of being angry with him. She noticed that she had always had a hot head lately.

"I'm sorry, okay." Andrius said as the kiss ended. His face was gentle staring at the girl.

Anya nodded in response. She realized that she was becoming too cruel to the young man. She knew he was just making him patient. Moments later the two got out of the car at the same time. Their neighbors' gossip immediately looked at them. Anya stared at them before finally entering their yard.

"What's that for? Hmm?" Andrius asked Anya. He followed Anya and was just shaken by what the girl was doing.

"For walking CCTVs," Anya replied that she did not bother to look back at the young man.

Andrius laughed at what she said and walked over to her. At the same time, they waited for the door to open, but Anya's Pappi did not open the door for them.

"Who are you?" Anya asked in astonishment. The one open them looked gay.

"Oh, Anya! Are you there yet? Come in!" Pappi immediately opened the door for them.

"Good day, Sir!" Andrius greeted politely.

"There is no good in the day when I see you," Pappi replied

"Pappi!" Anya grabbed her Pappi's attention. "Pappi, who is that?" Anya asked her father. It also followed the look of what the girl had been looking at before and burst out laughing.

"Mr. Montreal's cute."

Andrius and Anya looked at each other at the same time after what her father said. Andrius blushed in his mind as he looked at Attorney Montreal. It also stared at him sharply. It must be angry. While Anya was just slapped on her own forehead at the same time shaken.

"Pappi, you really dressed him like a woman? Why not a man wearing a Hanbok?" Anya asked her father as she approached him.

"Because he said. I choose that. Why are you fighting me? That's with you, ask. Why is this gay Attorney here in our house?!" Pappi's artistic response with a raised eyebrow. It also filled Andrius with a bad look.

The girl turned to the young man who was innocently shaken. Kraius also said that he looked pissed at what was happening.

"Sorry Kraius. Pappi still beat you up." the girl apologized to Kraius.

"Don't worry, baby. It's nothing to Montreal. Right, Montreal?" Andrius replied. He turned to the lawyer and raised an eyebrow.

"For a new Ferrari. Yes. It's nothing, Anya. I enjoyed my stay here. Your Pappi is also kind. Just a weirdo, sometimes," the lawyer replied to Anya while still scratching the back of her head.

"So, you really asked Kraius to be with Pappi, huh?" the girl asked Andrius. "Your service charge is expensive, Kraius. Ferrari really?" she added.

Andrius just shrugged at the girl's question. Money was not an issue for him. He was plenty then. All he wanted was to watch over the girl's father carefully. And Kraius was perfect for the job.

Kraius even amazed him. He really dressed up as a woman and put on lipstick for Anya's father. Looked like he would add a bonus for him.

Andrius didn't want to look paranoid but this time, he needed to. Especially now that he has rejected Dietrich Corporation over its merger plan. Arruba's family was such a pain in the ass.They could do what they wanted. They could ruin him but he would never let them hurt Anya's family.

Dietrich family wanted him as their son in law. Marry their daughter Arruba and handle their chains of hotels, but Andrius declined. He couldn't just marry anyone. It should be Anya for sure.

"We're going home now, baby. I need to check the office too," Andrius said goodbye to the girl before standing up. The girl nodded and approached the young man. He immediately hugged her tightly. "Rest, okay." the young man whispered.

"Hey! That's enough. You'll be separated. You even beat the stars in It's Okay Not To Be Okay. Babies." Anya's Pappi moaned immediately.

The two separated and stared at each other. Moments later the young man kissed the girl on the top of her forehead. Andrius smiled at Anya before looking at Pappi. His father still raised an eyebrow as his attention was on what he was watching.

"Let's go first. Thank you Mr. De Vega," the young man said goodbye to the girl's father. Kraius also stood up and said goodbye to the two. He was smiling but obviously strained because of his lipstick on the face. Kraius wasn't comfortable, it was very obvious.

When the two men finally left, her father slapped her lightly on the shoulder. She was surprised so she immediately scolded him.

"You're really rude, Pappi. What are you doing. The Attorney looked miserable," she said here as she waved it in his seat.

"You also know what you're doing. Did you really date? The peg is only 365 DNI? Get organized, Anya. I will pinch you child!" he said simultaneously pinching her side.

Anya missed because of what she did. She also complained that his pinched and it groin again but her father seemed deaf.

Her brain was closed about her relationship with Andrius. The girl was saddened by that knowledge but she just kept quiet. She knew in time that he would do the same.

"I just went up. I'm a little dizzy again Pappi," she said goodbye.

"Go and check sometimes. You might be pregnant. Your boyfriend looked like a shooter, for sure," suggestion of her Pappi while staring at him.

Anya was stunned by what her father said but she just shrugged it off. Impossible. She just had her period last month. So that thing was unlikely to happen. The girl looked up and squeezed her senses slightly. Her head ached more with the extra worry.

Anya continued to her room. She took another bath and adjusted herself. She had planned to go to sleep but for an hour he was lying down and drowsiness did not visit her. She got up and sat on the bed and pulled herself up. She remembered what her Pappi said.

To calm down the girl decided to go to the Mall. She would also buy clothes for the Empire's Annual Ball the next day so it was also worth her time to go out.

Anya wore her nerdy style again. She was more comfortable when she looked and dressed like that. When Anya came down she even caught up with her Pappi who also seemed to be leaving.

“Oh, where are you going?” she asked as soon as she could finally go downstairs. Anya even looked at her and frowned and was just shaken. She knew she looked weirdo again in his sight.

“Pappi, I just got out and I just bought something for the company's Ball. It's coming soon,” he replied here.

Her Pappi just nodded and they left the house at the same time. He used his own motor as she rode the Grab taxi.

Anya quickly reached the Mall. The girl first went to the pharmacy and bought a pregnancy test kit. She bought five and would use them at the same time when she returned home later.

Then at the pharmacy the girl immediately went straight to a boutique. She traveled all over the place to see beautiful formal dresses when a rusty red tube dress caught her eye. The girl would have taken it just in time for someone to take it. When she saw who owned the hand, Arruba Dietrich's face immediately appeared to him. He also raised an eyebrow staring at her.

“Looks like we have the same taste, Miss Anya. But, too bad I always get what I want,” said angrily to her.

Anya frowned at what she said. She also let go of the clothes they were both holding. Arruba laughed at what she did but she knew her kind of laughter was insulting.

"What's your problem? If you want to say something tell me straight. I'll listen," Anya boldly promised.

"Follow me," Arruba answered immediately after it artistically walked away from the place.

Anya followed Arruba and saw her enter a restaurant. She sat down at a table while waiting for her. She even smiled as she sat in the opposite chair.

"You're brave but that doesn't work on me," Arruba said immediately. She laid the bag on the table and deliberately branded it with her. "I want you to stay away from Andrius," the woman said without hesitation.

"And why is that? What if I don't want to?" Anya also promised boldly. She even raised an eyebrow at her while Arruba was still smiling at her.

Anya was about to speak when her Pappi suddenly called her cellphone. She quickly turned her full attention to it while Arruba was just watching the girl.

"Pappi, why? Is there a problem?" the girl immediately asked to answer the call.

"Anya, I don't have a job anymore. What about our household expenses?" Pappi answered her afterwards. He sobbed and the girl heard it.

"Just relax, Pappi." she promised him. Anya was immediately concerned about his father's condition. Her father loved his job as a make-up artist very much.

When she turned to look at Arruba, her grin grew even bigger. She was also holding a cup of wine. But, Anya was more shocked by what the woman said.

"I will ruin everything in your life, Anya. First will be your fathers job. Next would probably be your house. Everything around you. Just so you would stay away from Andrius." Arruba's long litany.

"You piece of a shit!" Anya replied.
