.."Thanks, goodnight Carah. " then he lean on Carah and gave her a smack on her l
ips that left Carah shocked long after he left.
She felt her lips with her fingers and smiled.
The incident was witness by her mother and she too smiled and let out a contented sigh, "Only, if only , I hope I really really hope." she thought to herself. She doesn't have anything against Zander its just that fate had played a bitter game on them. They are both good and loving parents towards Lexie, and she believes that Carah still have feelings for Sander that she 's been trying to suppress, not that she blames her daughter she just wish they will be together once more for the sake of their daughter.
On the other hand, Zander was whistling on the tune of 'She's my Girl' playing on his car stereo. He had it recorded and played it countless of time in phone, his laptop and even had it as a ringtone assigned to Carah's number.
The next day,,,
" Carah we have a break on the Hugo probe, he was seen as having a contract on one of the notorious pusher Nina." one of her agents told her.
"If she is notorious why can't they arrest her?.""
"It's because she is rumoured to be the mistress of the drug lord himself and got so many connections with the police and military."
"What about his connection with Sheila's case is there any breakthrough?"
"No development he still stood on his earlier statement that the child is not his and that he loose his temper knowing that Shiela cheated in him causing him to beat her and walk out of the apartment."
"Beast is there a way that we can confirm that the unborn child is his?" Carah contemplated on this.
"Even without that, Miss Carah we van still have a case against him."
"I know that, but I just want this to slapped this to his face for being so cruel." she insisted.
"But what if it's true."
"What do you mean? Carah was shocked.
" Miss Carah I'm still working on it, but I got some Intel that Hugo is sterile, he cannot have children due to some accident happened during his youth."
"Oh my goodness how can it be?" Carah has some serious thought on this.
" keep me posted on this development Jeff. I will visit Sheila in the hospital she is scheduled to be release sooner to try to shed light on this matter." she hastily added.
"Ok, goodluck Miss Carah."
"Thanks."
She still thinking on this matter when she went for their lunch date with the Chen's. She was early since her mother and Lexie has not yet arrived, she explore the gardens and was surprised to realized that most of the flowers in the garden are her favorite plants, arrange in the manner that she planned before. she was so entranced with the feeling that it brought her back eight years ago,,,
",,, I want it just like that ." she rest her head on the chest of her husband and heaved a sigh if contentment as she breathe in the soothing fragrance of the flowers mingled with the light smell of the cologne that Zander use, as he held her while caressing hair. She closes her eyes as if keeping the feeling from banishing. Unaware that the object of her daydream is right in front of her observing.
"You liked it?"
"Yes, just like it is,,," slowly she opened her eyes to the present and blushed as she realized that he was looking at her in one of her vulnerable moments.
"How long have you've been here?"
"Long enough to enjoy what I was watching." He answer calmly.
"Liked what you saw?"
"Very."
"You're shameless Mr Chen."
"I'm shameless when it comes to loving you Carah."
"And quite so vulgar."
"I don't intend to hide my feeling for my wife." Carah was rendered speechless. She wants to believed in what she heard it's just that she doesn't have the guts to be hurt again.
Zander seized the moment of her vulnerability to lift her chin to face him and rekindle the fire that use to be burning in her her eyes for the love she feels for him. Slowly and gently he touch his lips with hers and was surprised that she didn't turn away but instead she responded just like it was before.
They were so immense with the feeling they had bottled up for each other that they didn't noticed that they have four pair of eyes watching them.
