"They'll KILL YOU if they know about us" Jordan calmly stated trying not to panic her.
Lilly's breath hitched as soon as she heard the word 'Kill'. She tried to understand the situation by keeping all her fear aside but everything was so blurry because what kind of a descent businessman like Jordan has rivals?
"What are you talking about? Who and why will they kill me?" She asked out of curiosity.
"I don't even know who exactly is trying do it. Even Clara was attacked when she first announced as my fiance, it repeated many times but stopped since few months which I don't even know why? Who ever it is, I'll definitely uncover their faces soon!" He declared while remembering all the incidents that had happened before.
"Clara was attacked? *gasps* But she looks fine without any damages or scars?" Lilly asked, twitching her brows.
"Yeah, because when ever she was attacked she was either saved by my men or by the other people who understood the situation" He answered Lilly while eyeing her features.
Somehow his answer didn't convince Lilly because *How was Clara saved from each and every single attack? There must be atleast once that she was hurt!* Lilly thought.
"That is why I avoided you before. As much as I wanted to be with you, this threat always drew me away your embrace. And I can't take in that distance anymore but at the same time I don't want the same thing repeat" Jordan explained himself nuzzling deep into her neck.
"So does that mean we can't be together because my life would be in danger?" She asked with a low voice, being little upset.
"No, I never said that we can't be together! Offcourse I wantand I want us! But it would be safe if our relationship remains as a secret" He tried his best to make her understand the situation.
But Lilly was not at all happy with the words he suggested. She was already cheated on once by Jay Evans, but still nobody took her side because it was also a so called secret relationship and here she is again! In the beginning of the same kind of situation. Was Jordan going to play her just like Jay did in the name of secret relationship? Thoughts crossed her mind. She stood straight as she released herself from his hug and bluntly blurted out.
"What if I don't care about my life and want an open relationship? Would you agree for that?"
His mouth slightly opened at her unexpected comeback, he was about to say something but calmed himself to not sound too arrogant and cold. Slowly running his hands around her shoulders he started to speak "Lilly listen! Try to understand! I don't want to risk your life!"
"No! We don't have to live hiding from them. If our thing is publict then they'll definitely attack me, we can set a trap and find who they are! We'll get them behind bars and can happily live ever after .Wouldn't it be a win-win situation?"
He was amazed to see her speak like never before, yes her ideas were good to hear but complicated to be excuted. However the things she said made some sense and were convincing. He wasn't ready to loose her but if they get to catch those unknown rivals they could definitely spend the their lives peacefully, he thought.
Jordan let out a sigh with mixed feelings about it. "Even though I don't want to risk it, I'll still think about what you said ok?" He pecked her lips assuring her while she nodded in a little satisfaction.
"Come its already getting late, you need to rest" he walked her upstairs. They made their way to their rooms but She was baffled to see him drawing her into his room.
It was the master bedroom in the mansion. Instead of looking messy, his room looked so cozy and clean. It smelled just like him, so refreshing and comforting. "But my room is on the other side" She muttered under breath but still he heard that.
He stopped in his tracks and looked at her with his innocent face "I thought girlfriends sleep with their boyfriends" He said tilting his head a little to one side out of confusion which made him look soo adorable.
*Omg why is he so cute all of a sudden* she thought trying to control her smiles. He dragged her to his bed. "I am tired of sleeping alone" he mumbled while hugging her tight.
She felt bad for him "You don't have to sleep alone anymore! Atleast until I'm here with you" she assured him. He smiled at her heartwarming words but frowned at the hidden meaning he just realized or maybe misunderstood.
"Until you are with me? What do you mean? Offcourse you'll be here with me forever! I have no plans of letting go!" By every word that rolled off his tongue, his voice grew more possesive and dark.
"Time changes Mr.Jordan, we have no idea what's coming! What if something happen to me? Or what if I fly away to a better place?" She giggled seeing his odd yet cute expressions changing time to time with her words.
"No! I'll never let anybody to hurt you and if you really fly away then I'll join too so we could escape from this cruel world!"
Lilly chuckled at him "What if I disappear without telling you?"
"No! you are not allowed to!" He sounded like a kiddo who was scared to loose his legos.
She enjoyed his reactions while giggling. "Really I meant it Mr.Jordan!"
"Will you stop or should I stop you?"
"No I mea- opps" He crashed his lips onto hers without letting to her complete the sentence. They both smiled into eachothers kisses before it grew passionate.

(NEXT DAY)
Lilly was busy working on her laptop. Mr.Kim walked and stood infront of her grabbing her attention. She looked at him and raised her brows with a questioning look on her face. "Mr.Jordan needs you in his office"
Sarah looked at Lilly, amused by the change in recent behavior of the CEO. Lilly stood up and walked to his office thinking about why he called her.
Both Lilly and Mr.Kim stepped into Jordan's office. Jordan looked at her walking towards his desk. He gave a straight look to the person behind her, soon Mr.Kim nodded and left the office not forgetting to close the door.
"Anything important Mr.Jordan?" She asked expecting him to order her to do some work or to discuss about any announcements.
He stood up, walked towards her and hugged her digging his face into her neck by taking her off guard. "I missed you" He whispered tightening his grip.
She was dumbfounded seeing his actions but soon chuckled . *What has gotten into him? He is getting all cute and clingy* she thought. "Someone might see us Mr.Jordan" she muttered slightly pushing him away but he didn't move an inch.
"You should quit calling me Mr.Jordan you know" He suggested as he pulled her even closer.
She wrapped her arms around his neck "Then what should I call you as?" She asked with a teasing tone.
"Something that sounds super close like baby? darling?" He was cut off when she slightly hit him while blushing so hard. She hid her face into him.
He chuckled at her cuteness "You look so cute while you are blushing"
He cupped her cheeks and slowly leaned in to kiss her but she dodged it. "We are not here to spend time together! We are here to work! Mr.Jordan!?" She smirked while using the same words that Jordan had used back then on her first day to work.
"Ow! Using my same old words to get me huh? *smirks* Too bad coz I always change the rules according to my needs!" He winked at her.
"Off course you do! But I need to go and work now" she spoke with a sarcastic tone.
"Gosh!! I wish you could stay in here all the time" He exclaimed with desperateness in his voice.
Her smirk grew even more wider at his words. She leaned to his ear and whispered "Then why don't you make me your personal assistant?" She moved away and playfully winked back at him.

Its been a while since Lilly has visited Honey Jersey. She called her many times but Honey never picked up so she made her way towards Honey's house wondering why she was so busy to not even pick her calls.
Lilly noticed the front door was slightly open. She stepped towards it but felt weird when she heard some random noises from the inside. Being confused she gradually peeked before opening the door to go rigid in her spot while seeing two people making out infront of her. They both were too into eachother that they didn't even notice Lilly at the door.
One of them was surely Honey Jersey and the guy? *WAIT A MINUTE! He looks sooo familiar I definitely saw him somewhere before NO WAlT! I actually KNOW HIM!* She freaked out.
DAVID?
