"Sandy, the clan is gone! I have no more reason to stay here. I can complete my family!" she tearfully exclaimed.
Sandy guiltily hugged her.
"You must go back and fix your family while the children are still young. I will file a leave to send all of you home." Sandy assured her.

YaoFeng had been staring on the phone for a long time now. Assistant Xu was sitting in front of him. He went to the office today to show face that he's working but he cannot wait to go home already to watch his family.
Until this message came up.
'Assistant Xu, do you have any news about the Ming clan?'
Why would his wife be interested in something she so feared? It even caused her family's accident, his accident and her poverty. He wanted to know what she's up to. The White's are getting back in business and all seemed well on her part, except for that English handsome man who has beautiful eyes.
Assistant Xu coughed.
"Ahem, Ahem. Boss, what if you ask her a question as well?" he suggested. He knew the boss wanted to know more about Yuyu.
YaoFeng frowned. How will he find out about that man? Who cares about the Ming clan?
In the end he typed:
' They're gone. How are you? '
The moment he pressed send, we wanted to remove the last sentence. However the other person has seen it and is now responding.
'Better than ever.'
Ming YaoFeng cannot believe it. She replied just like that?! Why better than ever? Does it mean.. she really has something with that man and they are moving forward?
He put the phone back into the drawer and got back to work. His lips keep on moving even though he's not talking. Assistant Xu does not know if he should stay or go.
Then his phone beeped.
It was still Yuyu but he felt like this time, she's talking to him personally so Assistant Xu replied by himself.
'Is your wife still breastfeeding? I left some milk at home. If my husband asks you for something at home, take it from the fridge and give it to your wife. She'll know what to do'
'Noted! Thank you. Our daughter is called Xu Chao-Xing.'
'YaoFeng and I have twins. Ming Lune and Ming Soleil. I can't wait for them to have a friend!'
'The company will have an annual celebration next month. Are you here by then?'
'Yes. Bring your child so she can play with our twins. How is my husband?'
Assistant Xu was about to reply when he felt like he couldn't answer this one. He took a quick look at his boss who had been watching him all along.
He was afraid the boss would misunderstood again, so Assistant Xu took the initiative.
"Boss, your wife is asking about you. Should I reply or would you like to reply?"
Ming YaoFeng scoffed and asked him to get lost.
When Assistant Xu closed the door, Ming YaoFeng immediately took the phone from the drawer and read the conversation.
He was touched how she addressed him and talked about their family however, he was also offended. This pretentious woman. Why ask about him only now after all this time? Is she getting back with him because she did not succeed with that english man? Or trying to get his good side so she can get her freedom from their marriage? Hah! She can try. He placed the phone back to the drawer and frowned. He focused on working instead.
His main goal in life is to make his wife's life miserable if ever she returned.

One late night in London.
Sandy had just finished drying her hair and was about to sleep when a shadow dawned on her and hugged her from behind.
Smelling the familiar scent, she smiled and turned around.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
William buried his face on her neck and she felt electricity flowing in her nerves.
"I remember something about you." He said.
"Tell me first so I can confirm if that's true." He had some memories that did not fit their story so she mostly confirmed if it really happened or a truth mixed with lies.
"There was a building. It was night. There are fairy lights like these on top of the building, and it was chilly. I gave you my coat, and you wrapped a scarf on me," William looked at her and he saw panic in her eyes. He inched his face closer to her and she blushed and looked away.
"That… that was not me. Maybe it's your memory with another person." She said without confidence.
"I think it was you. I also can hear myself say, 'Sandy, can I kiss you?'" William retell the story and asked at the same time. He clasped his fingers at the back of her waist and pulled her closer.
He can see how nervous she was and her heart beats fast against his chest.
His lips curved almost brushing hers. He knew that she's trying to avoid that because it really happened to them.
She gasped and looked down at their almost kissing lips.
Her breathing became fast and he no longer waited for her reply. He slowly pressed his lips on hers transferring the warmth very slowly and passionately.
Sandy closed her misty eyes. He was telling her the story of their first kiss in the top floor of their unit back in US and he was doing it again to her.
She allowed him to kiss her. William felt a familiar longing with the woman in his arms.
They only peck and never get this far all these time. Only now. And it brings him emotions he never remembered existing. He alternated kissing her upper and lower lips.
Not too long, she replied to his kisses and her hands reached out to his shoulders.
He felt her leaning on him and he deepened the kiss softly, this time, slowly putting his tongue inside her mouth. He intentionally made his move very slow and she grasped his neck with more force as if clinging for pressure.
His tongue caressed hers very slowly and she felt her body turned weak. William was very satisfied with how her body responded. She has completely thrown her weight on him and she moaned unknowingly.
William felt his arousal. Her moans added pressure on him and he's afraid he might lose control. He was about to go all out when someone knocked on her door.
Sandy immediately pushed him and hid him in her closet instead of the extended door.
"What is it?" she hoarsely asked.
"Missy are you sleeping? I am passing by and heard a sound? Are you having a nightmare?" it was Tania with her sleepy voice.
"No need. Go back to sleep. I am working." She opened the door to assure her.
"I'm just stretching because my back hurts. I'll be lying down now to sleep. Go."
"Good night Missy." Tania left.
----
Sandy locked her door and opened her closet. She was unable to look at the man.
"It's late, go back to your room." She said blushing crimson.
"You're right. It's definitely too late. Come with me." William immediately reached for the back of her neck and knees and brought her to his room.
He put her down on the bed and did not give her a chance to refuse. He kissed her with hush; so much longing and transitioned to passionate kissing where she can follow.
His member is already erect and he can no longer stop this.
He continued kissing her and only moved to her ears to whisper to her, "You don't have to suppress your moans here, my room is soundproof." Sandy blushed and bit her lips.
They have done it before and it's normal for them to do it. Still, she's still hesitant.
"Will, have you done it with another woman?" she asked.
William stopped with his kisses. He cannot be sure. He pecked her lips and looked at her straight in the eyes.
"Sand, I have problems with my memory, but I know my body will only feel this wonderful with you." He kissed her with passion.
"I will not do it with you until I get back my memories." He whispered and hugged her.
"But I have other ways to make you feel good." William kissed her and this time, his mouth worked hard.
Sandy felt the burning need inside her and was not able to suppress the sounds from her mouth. Her hand brushed to something hard and she held it like her hands have minds of their own.
William let out a groan.
Both of them were consumed with a familiar need that only each of them can fulfill.
William woke up before dawn with the Sandy's head on his chest. He was determined to get back what he's lost and protect Sandy and her family. If he was not interested in power before, he's all the more interested now, just to ensure that he can protect the people he loved.
