Leo frowned when he entered the house but didn't see anyone around. The house was very quiet. Where's everyone?
When Adele called him earlier, she said she was very ill so she must be in her room. He went straight upstairs to look for her. But the more Leo heard the silence, the more worried he became. He was kind of hoping he would come across anyone, but not a single sound can be heard. He stood in front of Adele's room, unable to decide on what to do next.
Leo clenched his fist as minutes pass and he just stood there. He wanted to have a word with Adele but her room was like an unchartered territory; a place he was forbidden to cross. Who knows what danger lies ahead?
"Adele, I'm here. Let's talk outside." Leo finally called her as he knocked on the bedroom door. There wasn't any answer though so he knocked a second time, but still no one replied from inside the room.
Leo began to worry. Adele said she was sick. What if something bad had already happened to her and she urgently needs help at the moment? Anxious, he grabbed on the door knob and twisted it; it's not locked. Adele's door wasn't locked and it suddenly creeped him out. A woman alone in a room isn't usually a scary thing. But how many times had he fallen for this trick already? How far should he push his luck?
Letting go of the door knob, Leo fished his phone out from his pocket and dialled a number. He must be crazy but he knew he couldn't do this in secret.

Inside a red porsche, Charmaine was watching something on his laptop when her phone suddenly rang. After checking it out, she learned it was her husband calling. She wondered what he's up to. "Hello." she greeted as she answered his call.
"Where are you?" he asked.
Charmaine glanced at the tall gate on her right, a few meters away from her car. Behind it, a white house stood from a distance. "I'm on my way home. What's up?"..... was it a lie? She's almost home!
"Well... how til you make it home? I need you here for something. I think Adele needs help." Leo told her.
Charmaine raised her brows. He called her because he didn't want to check on her himself? How amusing. "Alright. I'm coming."
Charmaine ended the call and turned to her laptop screen. On her way home, she had been monitoring the house through the security cameras. She knew when Leo entered the house and watched as he stood in front of Adele's door like a statue. The sitting room upstairs is an open room and the spy camera above the window faces the masters bedroom. On it's left, Laura and Luke's bedroom doors are visible. On it's right were Elise and Adele's room and in the middle of all rooms was the staircase.
Charmaine calmy watched Leo on her laptop as he paces back and forth in front of Adele's room. Was he really waiting for her to arrive? But she was just there to watch! She was in a dilemma when suddenly, Adele's room slowly swung open. Adele went out with only a towel wrapped around her body and grabbed Leo's arm dragging him inside the room.
Charmaine stared at the close door. That was the farthest she can spy on. There aren't cameras in any of the bedrooms and she could only stare at Adele's door at the moment. She said she was only there to watch; that she wouldn't stop anything from happening; but that's easier said than done. She has only stared at the screen for a few seconds but it felt like minutes have passed by. How long should she be waiting outside?

"Adele, I think you should wear something." Leo told the woman grabbing his arm. Her breast kept rubbing his elbow!
"I was sweating a lot so I took a shower. Sit down first while I put on some clothes." she said as she led him to the sofa.
Leo didn't resist and just sat on the sofa. He looked away from the woman and waited for her to get dressed but surprisingly, Adele hurriedly sat on his lap and took off the towel covering her body.
Leo was forced to look at her bare chest. With her arms wrapped around his neck, the mans lips touched her breast. Any man would go crazy at that moment. With a naked woman all over you, who would dare resist? "Leo, I've been wanting to hold you like this. I want you. Please take me!" Adele uttered in the most seductive voice she could make.
Leo's heart was beating fast. A naked woman was in his embrace but all he could think about was the trouble he would be into if Charmaine caught them like this! He grabbed her arms and pried it away from his neck as he look at the woman's face in front of him. "Adele. This is not right. Stop this rubbish! I don't see you that way!"
Adele was stunned and Leo took advantage of it, pushing her away and standing up from his seat. "What do you mean you don't see me that way? You liked me, didn't you?" she yelled. Again, she grabbed him by the waist and stopped him from leaving. "I don't believe you. I know you want me as much as I want you. I won't ask you to leave your wife. I just want to do it with you! Make love to me!" she demanded as he grabbed Leo's private part.
Adele stared at Leo with eyes widened. Leo stared back at her with a cold expression. "Have you touched enough? Have you checked it yourself? You can't move me. As you can see, you aren't turning me on." he stated.
Adele started squeezing his man parts but nothing happened. "Why? Why won't you make love to me!" she bellowed. No man has ever rejected her before! Whoever she wanted, she always gets them! But why, why can't she arouse Leo's interest?
"Because for me, you're my sister and I don't want to do it with a sister. It's disgusting." Leo commented. He then pushed the dazed woman out of his way and walked out of the room.
Disgusting... Disgusting... The word echoed inside of Adele's head. Leo thinks she's dirty? Is that it?

Charmaine sighed as she slowly climbed the stairs. In the end, she couldn't withstand the pressure building up in her chest for even a minute and she chose to just come home. Unexpectedly, when she was almost upstairs, she saw Adele running out of her room naked! What's happening? Where's Leo?
Charmaine watched as Adele went to their bedroom. Did Leo went in there? Were they planning to do it in their bedroom? That's nauseating! Should she still check?
"Leo, you can't do this to me! I've waited for you!" Adele protested as she hugged Leo from behind when she caught him on the doorway. "You said you'll come back for me and I waited!"
"I said I'll come back and visit you again. You and my mom." he corrected.
Adele shook her head. "No! You even kissed me!" she added.
"YOU kissed me. I didn't kiss you back. I never promised you anything. I was only nice to you because my mother likes you." Leo explained. She had misunderstood so many things. It's really absurd.
"No! You're mine! You don't know how many things I gave up for you. You can only be mine!" Adele started crying and tightened her embrace.
"Excuse me, but can you please stop blocking the door?",from behind them, Charmaine's voice resonated. Leo's body stiffened and Adele sensed it. She slowly freed Leo but she didn't turn to Charmaine's way. She couldn't let her see her tears. It will be a sign of defeat for her.
Leo turned around and pushed Adele aside. He looked at Charmaine thinking of explaining things but he swallowed his words when he saw her cold expression. "Don't worry. I didn't see anything. Just tell her to put something on. I don't want Luke to see her like that." she stated before walking past them and entering the bedroom. "God, it's tiring!" she blurted before going straight to the bathroom and slamming the door shut.
