"Shhhs, baby girl, I will tell you how," she muttered like a baddie.
"Come closer, the walls have ears," Summer gestured towards Amira to bring her ear closer so as to disclose the plan she had regarding how to deal with Marina.
Amira moved closer and Summer latched her mouth behind her left ear and she started whispering.
"Wow! Babe, that's freaking awesome. If we do this to her, I'm sure that bitch will surely be tired and will eventually leave the house. So, when do you plan to move in with them?" Amira asked with a light chuckle as she was quite happy that she has an accomplice who was also ready to bring her enemy down.
Summer's face dampened for a while before she said while looking at her nails, "I'm a little worried, actually, I'll find a way to make my father believe that it's the best decision to stay at my brother's place for a while so that way if he's in support, my brother will have no choice but to accept."
Amira placed a hand on her shoulder as she tried to cheer her up, "Actually don't think so much about it. Let me give you a few tips, tell him that you want to get closer to the new addition to the family since you don't know her and start behaving really well with your father so that he'll believe you." She suggested.
"Well…that's a good suggestion there," Summer noted then she smiled, her worries reducing a little, " So, what are we waiting for? Let's order some food!"
************************************************
Aiden's mansion.
After old man Wellington and Summer left, Marina was left sitting on the chair and Aiden was busy receiving a call. After a while, he came back and sat down beside her.
Marian noticed a presence close to her so she moved her eyes away from the current program she was watching. She saw her husband, looking at her with loving eyes. She didn't even know what to do, perhaps happy and grateful for the way he had been so kind to her, more than what she bargained for.
She watched as his mouth moved and even though he talked, she couldn't hear what he was saying as her eyes were fixed on his sexy lips.
"Marina….Marina…Marina," Aiden called her several times but she didn't answer, he just noticed her staring at him as if he got something on his face until he shook her. Then she finally got her sense of attention back.
"I'm so sorry, really, I was just…" Marina quickly tried to explain and apologize for what just happened. She knew it was just stupid, but yet her mind was still reeling with the word 'fuck' while looking at him.
It was like she just started noticing his handsome face and especially his lips, but what didn't she expect when he wasn't around for two weeks.
"I understand, you don't know how to explain yourself," he stopped her apologetic gesture with the loving gaze in his eyes which still kept her wondering if they were directed at her, "I'm really sorry about my grandfather coming here, I'm sure you were distressed about that. I'm really sorry."
Marina just watched in amazement as he tried to beg her, she thought that after their wedding, she had done research on him and he was known to be a very proud person. So, why was he being so apologetic?He did me a favor, she was obviously lost in her thoughts again but he waved his hands in front of her again.
"Marina…will you just say something?"
"I'm very sorry..it's just that your lips…" she tried forming words with her eyes still on his lips and without care she found herself moving closer to him and he wasn't also backing off.
She could feel his breath on her skin and for a second she could swear she heard his heart beating really fast. What was that article she had read again about heartbeats and love?
"Ma'am," a servant's voice distracted them, making the approaching encounter with their lips to abruptly stop. "I'm very sorry, I'll leave you two and come back later," she added with a blush playing on her cheeks.
"I'm sorry about that awkward moment," Marina quickly apologized for her weird behavior. The man agreed to help her and now, was she trying to force herself on him? 'Behave hormones,' she cautioned herself.
"That was actually good, it's nothing," Aiden blurted out while keeping a straight face.
"You mean this?" Marina asked, surprised by his response to the kiss they almost had.
Aiden chuckled dryly and wiped his palms which she assumed was getting sweaty on his trousers, " I mean we are legally husband and wife, if we don't kiss, who will?"
"So, you mean I can kiss you?" Marina asked with a blush displaying on her cheeks.
"Yes," Aiden replied and it was almost like he was eager to do that. Aiden moved closer to her and placed his hands on her cheeks, then he brought his pink lips to hers. Marina swallowed a breath as his lips almost touched hers but again…
"I'm so sorry but Sir, you have a call on your business phone. You forgot it in the car," one of Aiden's bodyguards came into the room and disturbed them once again.
Marina quickly detached from him as if he was an exposed wire and she was a drenched cat.
"Who is it?" Aiden asked, sounding a little pissed.
"The client you are expecting his call," the bodyguard replied.
"Fuck it!" Aiden showed his displeasure before adding, "Give it to me."
He stood up from his comfortable seat and moved closer to his bodyguard but said, "I might not come home tonight," to Marina before leaving with the phone placed on his ear while he spoke in a foreign language.
"Oh ... .I thought my heart would explode!" Marina muttered as she held onto her heart which was apparently beating really fast, "Do I like him?" She asked herself questions based on the high school myths she believed.
***********************************************
Summer could be seen at the gate baring her horn so hard on her so that the gatekeeper would come and open the gate for her. She was actually so eager to get home and get it done with her dad.
She had told Amira about her plans and the first step in achieving it was in letting her dad approve of her staying with her brother so they can carry on with the rest. She couldn't wait to start frustrating Marina's life.
