Chapter Nineteen

Raquel’s POV

I made my way to the huge double doors that led to the exit and entrance of the building. I was on my way to find where Andrew resided as Leo refused to let him stay in the house

“What’s the meaning of this?” Slightly inmated, I asked the two door men who blocked my way on p

purpose upon seeing me approaching

“Out of my way” I ordered politely, but they didn’t flinch. It was as though they couldn’t see me nor hear my voice

“Can’t you hear me? Get out of my way” My patience was beginning to wane

Tim afraid we can’t ma’am” One of them spoke and I raised a brow

“And that would be because?

at would be because I gave that order” An all too familiar voice echoed behind me and I heaved a frustrated sigh and turned to him

That

“What’s this all about?” I asked. He wasn’t wearing the usual playful look that showed that he wanted to have fun in torturing me

“Where are you headed? His question came in short

“You don’t have to know that I responded

“Okay”

‘he said

a shrug and I raised my brows

Surprising how he didn’t try to push it or anything. Instead he walked out Whatever he was going through right now surely was good for me and my sanity. Of course the guards parted the way for him. Trying to follow behind, they blocked the way again

I didn’t have to voice it out. My question was evident in my eyes. But they chose to ignore it. I stared at them for a reasonably long time, but they didn’t look like they were ready to let me out

I walked back to the bedroom, stomping my feet hard to the ground. I was so pissed

After about an hour or so of sitting alone in self pity, he walked in

I felt his intense stare at my back. I wasn’t planning on saying a word and seemed like he did too

Along awkward silence ensued for another hour before he broke it This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“I don’t want you leaving this building without my consent. You almost got kidnapped last night and it is not safe out there.” He said. It wa authoritative, but at same time, it was an apology

I didn’t honor that with a response

“I’m not trying to restrict your movement. I just want to be informed whenever you’re leaving and I also want to know where. I’m trying to protect you” He continued

“Thanks, but I can take good care of myself I responded

“Oh of course. I uw how well you were able to protect yourself when those men almost kidnapped you” He was being sarcastic, but I didn’t care. I was good at protecting myself. Last night’s incident was only but a silly mistake on my part, which of course would never happen again

“Well, I don’t care if you feel you can take care of yourself or not. You would inform me before stepping a foot out that door” God I hated the fact that he could read my thoughts but I couldn’t read his

“How does informing you about my every move supposed to protect me? That question slipped out even if I had made up my mind to not talk to him again for the rest of the day

He gave me a look and I understood completely

“I didn’t know you to be dumb” he answered and I frowned deeper than I was doing before

“I will send some guards to go with you. Grez!”

“Oh! Makes

sense. How did I not think of that?” I said to myself in a mutter, but he heard and chose to ignore it. That, I appreciated a lot

“Fine then, I want to see Andrew, I love a lot of. I trailed off after noticing the look on his face

Great! It wasn’t surprising though, I knew this was exactly the reaction I would get but I needed answers

He was refusing to give them to me so I would get them from Andrew

“Are you being serious right now? Or you’re just trying to rile me up for no reason?” He asked

“I am being very serious here. Look, I need answers. A lot of things aren’t adding up Came my response

“Ask me and I’ll tell you. I’ve got all the answers you need. Why are you hell bent on talking to him? Or maybe there’s something to it. Maybe you just want to find an excuse to go have some fun time with him. Right?” His words were very displeasing to the ear

“You’re the worst p

t person I’ve ever met I didn’t try to think of a nice clap back or anything. I made sure to let him know how I felt about him

“Is that what you think? Trying to protect you means I’m the worst person you ever met? Fine. Think whatever you please. I won’t stop you from that, but what I make sure I stop you from doing is ever meeting that damn bother of mine” he retorted. I turned away from him. A year threatened to fall out, but I fought it off. There was no way I would let him see me cry. Never

This would get you no where Raquel, you should know by now that you can’t get what you want from Leo by challenging him Keira said and 1 instinctively turned to his direction

Searching his face for a hint that he might have heard her. If he did hear anything, then he was sure a very good actor, because there was no sign to indicate positive

Oh don’t worry, there’s no way he heard me. Even if you respond back, he wouldn’t hear it.” Kiera said again, but I didn’t buy it

‘Come on. And also, so what if he hears our conversation?. We are not scared of him now, are we?” She pushed and I rolled my eyes inwardly

“I’m being cautious, probably because we’re discussing about him and you’re trying to advice me on the method of which I’m to use to get what I want from him” it was an impulsive response

I looked up to him again and still no sign that be heard us, so I decided to go on. What’s the worse that could happen anyway! If eventually, it happened that he could hear me, then I accept it. It’s not like I’m trying to plor a way to kill him or anything. But I’ll be slightly embarrassed though
