Chapter 44

Book:Wanting Her Back Published:2024-6-8

I could not move right away because I was astonished. Because I slightly messed up my hair to eliminate whatever I was thinking, my hand is in my hair.
As I glanced at him, my eyes widened and it was as if icy ice had poured down on me. He was just staring at me, as if he did not know what he was doing.
When I think of myself, I blink my eyes. I lowered my hand and adjusted my unruly hair right away.
As he stared at me for a while, his brows gradually met. My eyes widened as I looked at his red lips, which suddenly formed a line, as if he was enraged by my disturbing his slumber. I blinked once more.
I quickly rose up straight and moved away from him when I realized I was sitting on his bed. Atlas remained still in his bed, staring at me in a blank stare.
Because of the way he was staring at me, I could not stand it. My strength appeared to be absorbed by his blue gaze. I am not able to look him in the eye. I was suddenly aware of the way he was staring at me in a strange way.
Is there any dirt on my face? Is it true that I do not have charcoal on my face? Because of the way he was staring at me, I wanted to fix my hair right away.
I did not bother to comb my hair because I had not combed it yet and I was in a rush when I started.
I was not sure if my hair was a mess and a bird”s nest face or if it was a mess and a bird”s nest face. As I took his intense stare at me, I held my breath.
When I looked up at his lips, I swallowed steadily. Even though he has not cleaned his teeth yet and has only just woken up, it looks so lovely and fresh.
Because of my thoughts, I have repeatedly beaten myself in my mind. Anna, when did you learn to be a pervert? The attractive man with the blue eyes was to blame.
If I had not seen his charming looks and manly aroma that could drive a reasonable lady wild, I am sure my life would have been quieter.
I exhaled a long breath. When I was thinking about Atlas, I was chastising my mind to avoid thinking of any obscenity about him.
“Ah, I was knocking on your door earlier to wake you up because you might be late in your office, but you did not answer, so I went inside because I was concerned that something horrible had happened to you.” I said to him in a weak voice.
The trembling of my knees is caused by a mixture of nervousness and terror that I am feeling right now. Because of his presence, I have the impression that Atlas”s chamber has abruptly decreased.
Because I was so nervous that I did not see that I was holding my breath, I had to tell myself to breathe.
I closed my eyes and blinked my blinking blinked
When his alarm clock suddenly chimed loudly, I almost jumped in fear. My attention was drawn to his bedside cupboard, where he kept his alarm clock.
Atlas no longer needed me to wake him up because the guy had an alarm clock to the duty, and the alarm clock sounded loud as if it was smacking me. I had previously damaged Atlas”s pest alarm clock a few times before, but it hadn”t quit ringing until now.
You will also discover that you are a wake-up call. The trap alarm clock is a snob to me.
I noticed a wide smirk on Alessandre”s face when I returned my glance to him. I was embarrassed to look at him.
What is this man laughing at? Is he laughing at me because of how embarrass I did myself?
My face turned as red as a tomato when Atlas turned off his alarm clock without taking his eyes off me. He also did not take away his sarcastic grin. Now I am sure he was laughing at my embarrassment.
Why am I so ignorant? I hope I do not just go into his room to wake him up. What does it matter to me if he is late for work, right? It is not like, my grades will go down if he is late for the office.
You even got to actually get inside his room, huh, Annalise. Now, look at who he is laughing at, are not you the one he is laughing?
What do you expect from him, Tss? Do you think he is unaware of the alarm clock”s existence? Who is now embarrassed, tsk?
In my head, I was already tinkering with myself. Annalise, it is so early in the morning, but you are turning your idiocy on again.
This is the fault of the irritated alarm clock, Tss.
What is the purpose of Atlas” alarm clock? I am not sure if he uses it as well. Because he usually arrives on time at work and is the type of person who calculates everything he does, I was surprised to learn that the great Alessandre Atlas Villareal uses an alarm clock as well.
I could feel a nerve in my brain tingle.
Why cannot someone like Alessandre Atlas Villareal use an alarm clock if they do not have one?
To get my thoughts out of my head, I shook my head. Because I am already fighting with my own head, I am beginning to believe I am going insane.
Atlas was still keeping a close eye on me, which surprised me. He is staring at me as though he is seeing a strange human in front of him.
My entire face was blushing. The side of my face is hardly scratched. When I am shy or uncomfortable with anything, that is one of my tendencies.
“I will be right out. If you want to eat breakfast, I made bacon fried rice and tocino for you.” I replied as I walked out the door.
I almost hurried to the door to get out of his room as soon as possible. When I eventually got out of his room, I could still feel his gaze.
When I got out, I almost hit my head against the wall.
“What the hell was that, Annalize Fay?” I scold myself. “Aren”t you taught how to speak straight?” I scold myself. Now I am absolutely smouldering hot.
Because my respiration seemed to be racing, I leaned against the wall for a long time and raised my chest up and down.
I am now able to let go of the habit of holding my breath.
I rushed directly to my room to shower and get ready for University when it settled down.
I scowled while having a bath, not because of the cold water, but because what really bothered my mind was the encounter that Atlas and I had in his room, and I did not even feel the coldness of the water.
I keep thinking about what I was going to say in front of him, and I simply shrugged at the shame I am feeling right now.
When I do something embarrassing, I am like this.
My emotions will not fade away as time passes, and I will recall them again and over again. It is like an earthquake, there is more aftershocks, and those memories will not stop me from continuing.
I was in the tub for about an hour. OnceI” wouldfinished, I put on my school clothes. I also used a blow dryer to blow dry my hair before combing it and twisting it.
I opted to comb and tie my hair because I am sure it will be a hectic day.
I started by tying the top layer of my hair back, half-up-half-down.
Next, I pull my hair over and through, creating a basic twist, leaving a space just above the grasp. I grab two additional loose hair strands and form a second ponytail underneath the first. Making a space and looping my hair through, creating a second twist, I repeat the previous procedure.
When I saw the lovely result of what I done to my hair, I smiled a little. One of the things I learned from watching social media video courses was this.
The hairdo I saw was dubbed a Khaleesi-inspired twist, and if you do not know who Khaleesi is, she is the dragons” mother.
I got up from my chair in front of the vanity mirror when I was satisfied with the way my hair was styled. Before I left my room, I checked my bag to make sure it contained all of my essentials.
I left my room after making sure I had everything I needed. I never put any color or lipstick on my face because, as I often say, I have no idea what I am talking about. I am also used to leaving the house with my face exposed, so it is no longer a concern for me.
As I approached Atlas”s chamber, I slowed my pace somewhat. I shrugged and continued walking because I did not hear anything from inside.
I immediately head to the kitchen. I took a seat on one of the seats and began to eat.
It was impossible for me to wait for Atlas to eat because I was certain that he would not eat with me. Instead of me, his wife, eating with him, I believe he would prefer have his employees dine with him.
When I tasted what I had prepared, I was pleased. I am fortunate in that I am a good cook. Benefits of being the heir to a vast restaurant empire
When my phone rang, I noticed A”s name on the screen. Before I picked up my phone that was laying on the table, I swallowed what I was eating.
He informed me that he was in the vicinity of our community. After reading his message, I was taken aback.
I have not had half as much as I should have. After I put my phone back on the table, I had a stiff mouth full of what I was eating. When I take too long to leave our village, that person will complain again.
The way Aiden and I regard each other has remained unchanged. Our friendship was unaffected by his admission of his affections for me. In fact, after his revelation to me, we became even closer.
I sighed after that because I was in a rush. When Atlas appeared at the kitchen”s opening, I was in that posture.
I suddenly swallowed as my eyes expanded. Because I felt rice enter my nostrils, I coughed steadily and smacked my chest.
As I reached for the water, I nearly burst into tears. Despite the fact that I had run out of water, I got the impression that rice had entered my nostrils.
As I gasped for air, I shivered. As I watched him shake his head at me, I realized that I had been a bit too aggressive. I am sure he is thinking I am a strange person.
He walked right past me and went straight to the fridge. I observed him drink water from a cup.
When I shouted his name after that, he was going to depart. As he turned to gaze at me, his forehead furrowed.
“Ah, aren”t you going to have breakfast? I cook for both of us.” I smiled sweetly at him, hoping that he would eat the food I had cooked for him for the first time in a long time.
He just kept staring at me for a few seconds after that. I gave him a lovely smile and pleaded with him, but he scoffed at me instead of listening.
With a chuckle, he turned his back on me and remarked, “You are having a lot of fun being my wife, right?”
He did not even pay attention to the food I prepared for him. As I watched him walk away from me, I just let out a long sigh. As I watched him leave, I shook my head.
Who knows when he will call me his wife? When is he going to accept me?
I shook my head and continued to finish my meal. I am not in a rush to eat this time. It is up to Aiden to wait outside the village for me, as long as I do not choke again and eat gently.
When rice goes into your nose, it causes pain in the nose.
I did not feel horrible about what Atlas had said to me. As a result, I am used to him treating me this way.
His slandering of me is nothing new. Because he has been like that to me ever since, I do not feel that much anymore.
I feel emotional sometimes and cannot help but be wounded by what he is doing to me, but I just realize what he is doing to me.
I was finished eating as well a few minutes later.
As I looked at Aiden”s automobile parked not far from the village gate where I lived, I grinned warmly. When I am singing songs, I am even jumping.
I knocked on the driver”s seat by leaning over it. I observed Aiden”s unhappy expression when the car window opened.
Because of how he looked, I had a good giggle out loud. He seemed to be extremely dissatisfied. In my frustration, he even rolls his eyes at me. I was just chuckling at him.
As I secured the seatbelt, I questioned him, “Have you been here for a while?” with a smile. I could not help but laugh out loud as he glanced at me sarcastically.
“I have been here before, I would have left you, eh.” His face wrinkled as he said that. “Wow, looks like you are having fun now, ah. You really asked.”
He asked me a sardonic inquiry, “How long have you been out? You feel like maybe you have a personal driver, am I right?” At what he stated, I promptly nodded. He scowled at me with a snarky scowl.
Shaking his head, he said: “Good luck to your driver then. Where have you ever seen such a handsome driver.”
“Tsk, maybe you should pay for my service as well.”
What he said made me squeal with drivwr. It is also really windy in Aiden”s house.
He shook his head and muttered, “Ah, stop, it is too early for your hubris. Have mercy, I do not want to be blown away by your overwhelming wind.”
“When you get my service for free, you get my service for free, while a lot of women stutter just so I can stare at them,” he said, sounding a little cocky.
“Tss, just admit it, Anna. Your driver is very handsome.” I merely covered my ears and winced at what he said.
We laughed as I told him: “I feel terrible for you, Aiden, get your car started, I want to get to the University as soon as possible. I cannot bear your arrogance any longer. I might not be able to stand your bragging any longer, and I might hit you in the face.”
The dude merely chuckled at me and started the car. I could see his automobile move quickly.
Getting the food from the backseat, I asked him, “Are we going to pass Lyka now as usual?”
When I saw the meal, a cold milk and a sandwich, I grinned as I opened the paper bag. I smiled sweetly at him and then took a nice bite out of the sandwich.
As I chewed my favorite sandwich, my smile broadened.
“No, Lyka does not appear to be traveling with Uncle today,” he said, then swiftly glanced at me. While eating, I noticed how he shook his head at my reaction.
“Is that correct?” I asked as I took a bite of the sandwich.
Every morning, we all went to the same university. Lyka has gotten more clingy to me after Atlas and I got married. I am not sure what is going on with that woman; maybe she is worried about me.
Because Atlas and I lived away from his parents, he knew what was going on inside our house.
Although I was afraid Lyka would just worry about me if I told her what Atlas was doing when he brought other ladies home and many others, Lyka being Lyka, I did not stop until I could tell her how my husband would treat me.
When she discovered out what Atlas was up to, he was upset, but I calmed her down and encouraged her to just let it go.
Because of this, she did not talk to me for a few days. I did not agree with her plan to rush to Atlas and report him to Mommy Lila and Daddy Sandro. Those two will be quite concerned if they find out what is really going on inside our house.
When parents discover out what their son is doing, Dad and Atlas may even argue. Knowing Daddy Sandro, I know he is extremely protective of me and will not allow his son to cheat on me.
Aiden awakens me up by saying, “Ah, the depth of your reasoning.”
I asked him a question that was a bit perplexing. With a smirk on his face, he shook his head and turned to gaze at me. He was able to glance at me because the traffic lights had stopped just perfectly.
Aiden teased me, saying, “Is that what the lunch I brought does? You are losing yourself, eh?”
I shook him and said, “Tsk, I was just wondering what food is being cooked right now in the cafeteria.” He patted my forehead and laughed loudly at me.
“You are a genuine thief. Seriously, where do you keep all the stuff you eat?” Aiden was intrigued. Because of what he stated, I puff a loud breath.
It was only a shrug of my shoulders as I looked him in the eye and did not repeat his teasing of me.
Lyka was waiting for us near the University”s parking lot when we arrived. When she noticed Aiden”s car, she waved at us.
I made a grin on my face. I waved at her as I lowered Aiden”s car window.
We were still a long way from Lyka”s place, so when the passing students stared at us strangely, I chuckled hysterically. When I eventually got out of Aiden”s car, we chuckled at Lyka”s laughter. We waited for Aiden”s car to be parked before going for a walk together.
It was difficult to hear Aiden”s voice. “Why did I ever think of befriending you two? You are the only women I know who act like crazy.”
When we witnessed Aiden”s presence, Lyka and I both giggled. To his unruly children, he appears to be a difficult father. Effing, Aiden.
