#2 Chapter 58
“What deal?”
“Ask your woman. Spilling all the truth is not my cup of tea. You may now leave.”
Why didn’t she tell me about this?
He left the room. He drove home quickly. True to what old man said. The woman is no longer in the mansion.
“Where is Celestine?”
The maid stopped walking. “Sir, he’s in your room. That’s where I saw him go.”
He nodded before he went upstairs. He saw her in the bed …. eating mango with that red thing?
“You have a lot of explaining to do, woman,” he insisted.
Her eyes narrowed as he just raised an eyebrow at her. She’s really weird. He can’t really figure out what’s in her mind lately.
“What’s that?” she asked before biting the mango. His eyebrows met because of the way it bites and chews.
“What’s the deal between you and my father? Why did you hide it away from me?”
“Secret. It’s just us. The important thing is that no more cobras will appear here,” he replied.
“I demand the right to know! My father is a trickster. He might be tricking you-”
From leaning on the headboard. It straightened up sitting. “Why are you so angry? Maybe because no other women are coming here, no? You don’t have a choice B or C?”
“What?” What the hell? How did that get into the conversation?
He sniffed and then got off the bed. Before the girl could pass him, he grabbed her by the arm.
“Babe,” he called softly. He’s pissed because she kept it from him but he can’t let her walk out of this room without them getting along. They need to talk.
It frowned as it looked up. “There is neither choice B nor B. There is only one choice and that was you. Don’t be mad, okay? I was just worried. I knew my father better,” he explained.
The wind blew it away. “So it’s a secret because I know you’ll say that. If you want to know what our deal is. First try to talk to your dad without you always nagging.”
His jaw clenched. “I don’t think I can do that.”
“He helped us all the time. Do you remember back then at the beach? I wanted to be angry with you but when I talked to your dad I was more courageous to find out if you like me too. Another thing, when you drove me to Your office. I was very hurt but I didn’t give up on you because I understood you better. ”
He was lost in words. He didn’t know.
“Your dad has no plans to follow in the footsteps of your family when your mom disappeared. The women who showed up here? It’s just props so you don’t notice because you shouldn’t know. He’s not that involved. It’s necessary. just listen … ”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
She closes her eyes tightly. “I’ll try, okay? If I managed to listen and understand him. Will you tell ‘kin about the deal.”
He quickly looked up and then smiled broadly. He shakes his head internally. She made me feel guilty so I will agree, tss.
“Of course. I can keep my promise.” Nameywang ito. “Of course, papa said we shouldn’t be in the same bed. So I’ll be on the other side first.”
“What? No way!” he protested.
She ignored his protests, “There’s more, wait!”
He followed it with a look. She took out something, like a little x-tray and a thermometer. He approached and took her hand.
“What is that-”
“Congrats! You’re a dad!”
Her lips parted. His brain must have froze when he heard that. He bit his mouth. He was fainting sitting up in bed.
I am gonna be a father soon?
I am gonna have a little me! No! It should be little me and Celestine
“I hope it’ll be a twin,” he murmured.
“You want more twins! Are you going to give birth?”
He ignored her statement and pulled her to sit in his lap. He gave her a deep kiss.
“I love you so much, babe,” he said sincerely. He is so happy. She felt like nothing could break the smile on her lips.
Celestine kissed his cheek. “I love you too.”
He can’t help but start kissing her neck. He stopped suddenly when Celestine tapped his forehead.
“Get married before bed. So put your lips and hand away. I might cut it off.”
He frowned. “You’re already pregnant with me, and besides, the wedding preparation just started.”
It patted his shoulder. “It’s not my fault. So hurry up.”
“It’s not fair!”
It stood up then took the plate with mango. “By the way, you want to talk to papa. You seem to talk man to man. Babyee!”
He was left dumbfounded alone in the room. Damn! And here he thought it was his lucky day.
He’s so wrong.
EPILOGUE
He turned to the young man after he got dressed. Earlier it was quiet and idiotic. Today is the day they go to her parents’ house. Don’t you say that’s the reason?
“Are you still breathing there?” he asked.
