Jefferson’s POV
My three years in Kenom was unbearable, even if I didn’t want to, I still missed Celina. I regret taking her the night before I left because I think that was the reason that I missed her.
Although I feel glad that she did give me the chance to have her before I left, I still don’t know why she left my room that night. I was hoping that we will have our marriage in the real sense of marriage. But her action made me think that it might not be the right time.
I stayed in Kenom and did all I can to make the business prosperous before I left. Everyday, I wanted to fly back here in Croas but I stopped myself. I had to give her a chance to be independent and I got to know everything about her with Daria. From time to time I asked Daria about what she was doing or if she was having a hard time.
Satisfied and very pleased. That’s how I felt towards her when Daria reported to me that she managed to solve all the problems that the company was facing. I am proud of her and even if the board had been doing everything they could to put her down, she didn’t show them her weakness.
“I feel like I was still working with you.” That’s what Daria told me when I called her a year after I left. And then I reminded her to always assist Celina with everything especially when the board was making things difficult for her.
When I landed in the airport, I rushed to the company so I would be able to see her. Daria reported that a month ago, she had been in dilemma about the decline of our clients in the bank and we had been flooded by complaints. She also informed me that Celina motivated the staff to bring out the best in them as well as, Celina also shared her ideas with them.
Now I was looking at her in her office and she looked tired. I want to be near her and make love to her right there and then but I stop myself. I don’t know what she thinks about my return so I had to at least know it first.
We had an argument but I am going to let it slide. I already know how sharp her tongue was so I should be fine. She left me in her office but I didn’t follow her anymore. Then my friend Mark called me. He was married two years ago in Kenom so I attended his wedding. Now, he had a problem with his wife and I myself didn’t like the girl as well. She was far from Celina and I don’t see any good character from her.
Mark married her so he got his inheritance and when he got it, the woman kept on asking for money every time she saw him. And he even found her cheating. “I am going to pursue it.” Mark said.
“Pursuing divorced?” I asked.
“Yes, what do you think?”
“Yes, I think that’s a good idea.” I replied.
“Won’t your wife get mad if you come back here in Kenom and help me out with the process?” he asked, worriedly. He found Celina scary. He said when he sent me that night home, he wanted to leave immediately because of the way Celina looked at him. He thought that she was mad because he made me drunk even though he knew that I had a flight the next day.
“You know that my wife will not care at all.” I told him, although I decided to bring her with me when I get back there. There’s no way that I am going to leave her again. Daria told me that Noris was always by her side and that should stop now. I didn’t want Celina to develop feelings for my half brother. Then I heard a phone ringing. I looked at it and I was sure that it was Celina’s so I grabbed it but Celina was really fast and beat me to it.
But even so, I managed to see the caller and it was Noris, but I pretended that I didn’t see it. Then we argued again and I got a little angry which made me do what I wanted to do to her the moment I laid my eyes on her earlier.
It was a quickie but I was satisfied and I was sure she was as well. When we were done, I couldn’t help but give her a love bite on her neck. I didn’t like her showing that part of her body, it was too sexy and I didn’t want any man fantasize her li***** and su***** there. Now that it has a mark there I was sure that she will be wearing a collared blouse or she will not be able to get out of our house.
We went home together and I couldn’t help a smile to show on my face when she didn’t object when I told her that. I drove for her and as soon as I parked the car, she got out and rushed to the mansion no matter how much I called her, she didn’t look back. She’s that shy to face me.
I went inside the mansion and Susane greeted me. “Welcome back, Sir Jefferson.”
“It’s nice to be back, Susane.” I greeted her back. “I am going to my room and rest first. Please take my luggage from the car later.” I added and went up the stairs.
I opened my room door and I was disappointed when I didn’t see Celine there. She was still sleeping in another room. I had a feeling that she would not be talking to me so I decided to rest and talk to her later.
My body was not comfortable with the time in Croas so I think I will be needing a little time to adjust. When I woke up, I was a little distraught and I had to think for a while before I could fully understand that I was back. I get up from the bed and take a bath. It was past dinner time and I wonder if Celina had eaten already. I got out of my bedroom and went downstairs to the kitchen to check if she already did.
A happy atmosphere welcomed me in the dining area and I saw dad, Celina and Noris eating together. they went silent when I entered and I felt furious towards him. “Son,” dad greeted.
I nodded at him and approached Celina who was focused on her plate. I looked at Noris and found him following me with his gaze. When I reached Celina I sat beside her and before she could react, I kissed her.
“How are you dad?” I asked after the kiss. She was still staring at me and I can feel her boring holes in my head by I didn’t care, I wanted Noris to know that she’s mine.
“I’m very fine.” Dad replied with a wide smile on his face. I know he liked that. He wanted me and Celina to become a real couple and I plan on making his wish come true.
“Have you been eating for a long time now?” I asked again.
“No, we just started. Celina overslept and just woke up now.” Dad replied.
“If that’s the case, then,” I said and put more food on Celina’s plate. “Eat more. You look thin and I don’t know if Susane took care of you when I was away.” I told her. I know that she was mad deep inside, but I don’t care. As long as Noris sees us like this, everything is going to be fine.
I got my own food and started eating as well. Dad will surely stay here for a little longer as he was happy seeing me and Celina doing romantic things. I think Celina was being considerate with my dad as well. That’s why she didn’t object to everything that I was doing.
Dad didn’t ask me about Kenom because I reported to him regularly. There were some things that I needed his advice as an experienced businessman. Now that I am back, I am going to take back the position and if Celina wanted, she can still work in any position she would want to have. I think it will be better if she will stay in my office. Although I don’t think I will be able to work when she’s there, at least she’s with me.
I looked at her and I found her looking at me as well so I gave her a wink which made her roll her eyes at me. I chuckled because I thought she was childish. It was really nice to be back.
