Chapter 82
82 Lonely
“Christ, let go. I have to go down,” said Elena for the umpteenth time Christian was there to let go of his hand.
It’s been almost ten minutes since Christian kept Elena by his side, even though they were already in front of Elena’s parents house. Christian, who wants Elena to move and live with him, doesn’t want to let Elena go, he’s still not satisfied with the answer Elena gave earlier.
“Christ, you promised to give me time to think about it, didn’t you?”
Christian tightens his grip on Elena’s arm firmly. “Too long, the time you’re asking for is too long. I can’t wait.”
“If you can’t wait, let’s just say that I immediately rejected your offer from the start,” said Elena curtly.
“Elena...”
Elena ignored Christian’s words, what she did was forcibly release Christian’s fingers that were entrenched in her arms and immediately got out of the white Ferrari car quickly without making a sound. Elena was too tired of dealing with Christian’s increasingly unreasonable childishness.
Christian himself can only be silent watching Elena run into her house, Christian can’t do anything at this time. The risk was too big, Elena’s parents would definitely forbid Elena to live with him if he made a fuss tonight.
As soon as Elena’s body disappeared behind the door of her house, Christian immediately grabbed his cellphone and immediately sent a voice note to Elena without pause. Not enough with voice messages, Christian again writes a message to Elena to come down to meet him again. However, none of the messages were answered by Elena. Even the last five messages that Christian sent a moment ago were not delivered because Elena had turned off her cell phone.
.....
“Fuck... Elena you’re really testing my patience,” Christian says emotionally, his eyes staring intently at Elena’s room where the lights have been turned off.
“Hold on Christ, this is a cheap high-tech strategy that girls out there usually follow. Calm down, you have to calm down, Christ. No girl can resist you, so you don’t have to worry. Elena will surely fall into your arms and soon warm your bed.”
Unable to stand being in a slum area, Christian then stepped on the gas pedal of his car and immediately left the area where Elena lived to return to his comfortable and luxurious home. 180 degrees different from Elena’s house.
As soon as Christian’s car left, Elena opened her bedroom window which she had been closing for a long time. Without Christian knowing, since Elena arrived in her room, the girl had never been anywhere. She immediately stands by her bedroom window, peeking at Christian in the dark with the phone she’s deliberately turned off. It was the only way for Elena to kick Christian out and it worked.
“Looks like I have to think of a way to avoid him, Christian is very dangerous,” said Elena to herself.
Elena cheeks turn red again when she remembers the incident this afternoon at the office before they go home, Christian who is still terrorizing Elena suddenly gets a hot kiss filled with desire on her neck and left chest and now Christian’s kiss marks are back to decorate the skin of Elena’s body. accompanying another kissmark that had been lodged in Elena’s neck.
Since the smell of Christian’s perfume still lingers on her body, Elena rushes to take a shower. Elena couldn’t possibly sleep if Christian’s scent was still in her senses, that’s why even though it was late at night Elena had to take a shower. Luckily in Elena’s room there was a bathroom, so she didn’t have to go down to the first floor to take a shower. Because if that happened then Elena would not be able to avoid the dozens of questions that came out of the lips of her parents who were still very stiff.
***
After thirty minutes of driving at high speed, Christian finally arrived at his house which was very quiet. Only Jorge was still awake, the man was always going to sleep after Christian came home. Jorge’s responsibilities are similar to that of Noah who was so loyal to the late David Clarke until the end of his life he served Luis who replaced David Clarke in guarding the Clarke family residence.
“Then you don’t have to wait for me, Jorge. You also have to take care of your own health,” Christian said quietly as he handed Jorge his car keys.
Jorge smiled. “How can I sleep if you have not arrived home safely, young master. It is one of my obligatory duties.”
“Don’t be so rigid, I’m not a teenager who should be closely watched by his parents,” Christian replies curtly.
Jorge chuckled. “Very well, I will consider your suggestion of getting to sleep earlier in the future, sir.”
“Good...”
“This afternoon Mr. Jack called.”
Christian’s steps immediately stopped and turned to Jorge who was still standing where he was. “Did Daddy leave a message for me?”
“Mr Jack asked you to come home to celebrate Miss Suri’s twenty-third birthday this weekend,” Jorge replies quietly, passing on the message Jack left for Christian.
Christian is silent, he goes back to thinking about the previously made plan to take Elena to Paris. Since knowing that Paris is Elena’s favorite city, Christian wants to take the girl there. Christian wants to erase Elena’s memories with Jason who had gone to Paris a month ago. Christian wants all of Elena’s sweet memories to only happen when she is with him.
“Ok, I’ll check my schedule first.”
“But Mr. Jack wants your answer as soon as possible, sir.” Jorge spoke again, stopping Christian who was about to continue on his way to the second floor.
“I’ll call Daddy directly, Jorge. You don’t have to worry,” Christian replies coldly warningly.
Realizing that the young master was angry, Jorge immediately lowered his head. “Sorry, sir. I didn’t mean to...”
“It’s ok, Jorge. I know you’re just doing your job, after all, with or without me at the event, Suri will still be happy to celebrate her birthday. Especially if the adopted son returns from Portugal, I’m sure my presence isn’t wanted,” Christian says quietly, bringing up Asher in every conversation that annoys him.
Jorge immediately locked his lips tightly, he knew that the young master was in a bad mood.
Christian himself has continued on his way, climbing the stairs to his room. Living in his ancestral home alone for many years is one of the biggest reasons Christian wants Elena to live with him, Christian wants a friend to share stories with each other every night to unwind after a long day at work.
Although he has been in a relationship with many women before, this is the first time Christian’s desire for a woman is so passionate. Elena who is not tempted by the sparkling luxury items she has, Elena who is not impressed by the unmatched upper class lifestyle makes Christian curious about the girl until finally that curiosity has now developed into a different feeling inside him. The feeling that pushed him to have Elena completely.
Christian’s intention to take a shower and rest was lost because of Jorge’s words, even though it wasn’t Jorge’s fault but Christian was still annoyed because what the butler at his house said made him think back to Asher. The beloved child of his parents who had snatched their love from him since childhood. Jealousy when little Christian turned into hatred when he found out that Asher had bad intentions towards his family. Although the evidence that Christian currently has is incomplete, Christian is 100% sure that Asher has bad intentions, until the peak when Suri disappeared while he was with Asher at the airport. Christian’s hatred for Asher is getting more and more explosive, unstoppable.
“Fuck..Damn Asher, he really ruined my day.”
Without taking a shower first, Christian changes clothes and quickly leaves his room to the first floor. Jorge, who was about to turn off the light on the first floor, was startled when he saw Christian walking briskly towards the main door.
“Young master...”
“I’ll be spending the night outside, Jorge!” Christian said loudly as he waved his hand that already carried the yellow Porsche car keys into the air.
Christian deliberately went in a different car so that his whereabouts wouldn’t be known to many people, as has been the custom for years. As one of the most important people in Luxembourg, Christian has a lot of enemies out there. Both the enemy who openly raises the war flag or the enemy who hides behind his sweet mask. That’s why Christian always uses a different car every day, so that people who have bad intentions towards him don’t easily recognize him.
This winter has brought its own blessings to Elena, usually Elena hates wearing layers of clothing, but this time Elena was greatly helped by the layers of clothing. The kiss marks Christian had left along her neck and chest were now perfectly hidden under her thick shirt, no one asked her.
“You’ve been coming home late lately, honey. Take care of your health, don’t be too late,” said Mr. Wilson starting a conversation at the dinner table not long after Elena ate her mother’s breakfast.
“Jody, let Elena eat first.” Mrs Camila responded quickly to her husband’s words. “Poor Elena, she needs to eat a lot.”
