"Hey...." Lily screamed when she noticed a strong arm lift her from the couch she sat comfortably while enjoying her show.
"Put me down I can walk"
But Dilan didn't listen to her. He placed her on the bed and covered her with the sheets he kissed her on her forehead.
"Good night"
She pouted
"You know I'm not a child". He walked over to the other side of the bed and lay beside he
"I know" he answered coldly
"Why do you treat me like one"
"You don't like it?".
"Of course not. Am a grown lady for Heaven's sake.....I can walk on my own...I can feed myself...I can also take care of myself"
"But you don't"
"You do all of it for me and it makes me feel lazy"
"Do you think you are?"
She nodded
"I'll let you have your space"
She smiled widely.
"But not your work"
"Why?"
"Because you work for me," he said smiling at her.
She was about to ask him what he meant but he put her off
"Goodnight" and he slept off. Lily's brows furrowed.
*The next morning
"Where are you going?" lily asked rubbing her eyes
"You overslept? Seems you getting lazy" Dilan commented with a smile on his face.
Lily frowned at him. He walked over to her, his blue eyes glimmering
"I'll have to take certain measures....don't you think?". He said bringing his face closer to hers
"you haven't answered me...why are you on a suit?" she asked in a serious tone.
"Am going to work" he said dressing himself
"Work?" she whispered
Dilan laughed
"You forgot that I'm a CEO huh?"
Her lips formed an 'oh' she had truly forgotten. For some reason, her face turned sullen when she figured out that Dilan won't be around the whole day with her.
Dilan kissed her and walked out
"I'll be back.....just make sure you brush" he laughed walking out of the room. Lily touched her lips and smiled.
Earlier that afternoon lily sat outside the balcony with her laptop on her lap. She felt a large arm cuddle her
"Your back?"
"Mm missed me?".
"Not even a bit"
Dilan sat beside her and peeped at her screen
"But you're looking at our wedding pictures".
Lily gasped
"I....was looking for something" she lied
"Me I guess"
Lily looked at Dilan.
"Your so shameless...."
"So am I a shameless husband?"
"A shameless CEO"
"I don't like going by that"
She raised a brow
"What do you mean?"
He looked at the blank space
"I always wanted to save lives....not sit and attend meetings"
"A doctor...."
He nodded. Lily froze
'He had to be kidding' she thought
"Am not" he replied as if reading her mind
"Why?"
He smiled without answering her back. Lily fell silent. How possible was it that an offspring of Noah Thor the greatest and most famous CEO of all time would feel just to hear that his son would want to settle to be a mere medical doctor? Noah Thor wouldn't let that.....no one would... that would be a fatal blow to his worldwide. She turned to him she saw that he wasn't joking he was serious with it but why was he telling her this?. She didn't know... but what would she tell him? Was she going to support him like she promised on their wedding day....or was she going to oppose him in his dream just to save the name of the Thors? She glanced at her screen that still had their wedding pictures.
She turned to him
"Follow your heart," she said plainly. He seemed shocked....he was expecting somewhat of a scold from her but instead he got a simple reply. He nodded and she rested her head on his shoulders and slept off.
Dilan smiled when he noticed that she had slept off....she might have actually missed him a lot but she just didn't want to admit it.
Noah Thor sat with his wife when his phone screen lit up
A message read
"Almost time"
He almost choked on his food
"Are you alright?" his wife asked
He nodded and drank the glass of water set by the maids.
