Chapter 44
Happy reading….
The noise of a large engine working to destroy the building in front of him did not stop Jayden from getting down while looking around the place.
Construction at Alatha Center has started today. Jayden had become the full owner of the place. The man gave a satisfied smile. Now nothing can stop him from achieving his dream. No one will ever be able to insult or become a slave. Jayden had gotten rid of them all.
“Let’s go back to the office!” Jayden said to Roy after being satisfied with the tour.
“Okay sir!” replied Roy, trailing behind the well-built and burly man.
After arriving there Jayden immediately sat himself in his oversized chair. He really couldn’t hide his happiness until the smile that was etched on his face never faded.
“Sorry, Mr. Jayden. This is a file from several interior design companies that you asked for,” said Roy, giving Jayden some files.
“Is that all?” Jayden asked accepting the file.
“Yes sir!”
“Okay. You can come out,” Jayden said, waving his finger as a signal for the man to come out. Jayden took his own time to choose which design was the most suitable for his luxury apartment.
“So good. I can’t even decide,” Jayden muttered after looking at some of the files. “I’d better ask Elena’s opinion,” he mumbled again picking up the cell phone he’d put in his coat pocket.
“Hello, honey. What are you doing?” Jayden asked with netra still looking at the files in his hands.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
“I’m outside,” replied Elena on the other end.
Jayden’s brow furrowed. “Buying groceries?”
“No. I met an old friend.”
“Who?”
“You don’t know her. What’s wrong, by the way, Jay?” asked Elena then.
“Could you come over to my company? I need your opinion, honey,” Jayden said, whining like a child.
“Sorry, Jay. But I can’t,” Elena refused after a moment of silence. As if considering Jayden’s request.
“Why?” Suddenly Elena refused.
“I still have to be here with my friend. We have something important to talk about. I’m sorry, Jay. I’m hanging up the phone. See you later!” said Elena ended the call unilaterally.
“Hei! Elena! Hello!”
Too late. The connection has been cut. Jayden called Elena’s number again but the number was no longer active. He don’t know why he got suspicious.
“Who’s the old friend Elena met?” mumbled Jayden.
Jayden didn’t want to be burdened with curiosity like this, so he immediately asked Roy to come in to see him.
“What’s the matter, sir?” asked Roy.
“Please find out where Elena is now. And who she met,” Jayden ordered.
“Okay sir!” Roy replied then left from there.
“You want to keep a secret from me, Elena?” Jayden snorted. “I won’t allow it.”
***
Lunchtime had passed but Roy had yet to report to Jayden about what Elena was doing.
“Shit! Where’s that guy? Why hasn’t he told you yet?” Jayden snorted in annoyance as he violently threw the file that was in his hand.
Ddrrttt….
The phone that was on Jayden’s desk vibrated indicating that a message notification had come in.
Jayden immediately opened the message which turned out to be from Roy. The man sent a photo of Elena in a sauna. She seemed to be talking with a woman that Jayden didn’t know who.
Not long after, his phone vibrated again as a call came from Roy.
“Hello, Roy!”
“Hello, Mr. Jayden. Miss Elena didn’t do anything. She just did what a woman usually does to pamper herself. I think Miss Elena is just feeling bored, sir,” explained Roy.
“Are you sure?” Somehow Jayden still couldn’t believe it.
“I’m sure, sir. Because since following her, she only went to restaurants, shopping centers and ended up in the sauna,” said Roy.
Jayden exhaled slowly. Looks like he’s just too possessive. Maybe Elena just needed some time to herself.
“Okay. You can go back to the office,” Jayden said and then hung up after hearing Roy agree to his order.
Jayden went back to his work not wanting to think about Elena anymore. Besides, there’s nothing to worry about.
It was time to go home and Jayden had parked the car in Elena’s yard. He walked quickly into the house.
When he got there he could see that Elena was busy in the kitchen. It can be smelled from the smell of cooking which is very tempting.
“Are you home yet?” asked Elena seeing Jayden’s figure approaching her.
“Just now,” Jayden replied curtly.
“Want to go straight to dinner?” asked Elena smiling sweetly.
“I’ll clean myself first,” Jayden said but before he left he managed to steal a peck on Elena’s cheek surprising her. But laughed afterwards. Sometimes the grown man makes it hard for him to think about being spoiled.
It didn’t take long for Jayden to return with a white t-shirt combined with loose black trousers.
“Did you have fun today?” Jayden asked as he watched Elena get food for him.
Elena looked at the man. “You’re spying on me?” guess the original Elena.
“No. Didn’t you say you were going to talk about something important with your friend?” Jayden said evasively.
“Yeah. We talked about it while having fun. Eating, shopping and a sauna. You know I haven’t done anything like that in a long time?” Elena said with a faint smile.
Jayden tugged at Elena’s waist so she could drop her head right on the woman’s flat stomach.
“Just do what you want to do. As long as it makes you happy,” Jayden whispered and looked up. “But don’t let it be because you’re busy having fun with your friends that you forget about me,” Jayden continued pursing his lips.
Elena chuckled at Jayden’s really adorable behavior.
“That’s impossible, Jayden. You’re my everything. You’re my life,” Elena said, taking both of Jayden’s faces.
“I know,” Jayden said, hugging Elena tightly again.
After dinner they continued to relax while watching television. Jayden had deliberately brought the file on the interior design earlier so Elena could see it.
“What do you think?” Jayden asked.
“Wow! This is so beautiful, Jay. I can’t really choose. Everything looks so awesome,” said Elena confused.
“Isn’t that right? I’m also confused myself that’s why I’m asking you,” Jayden said resting his head on Elena’s shoulder.
“Okay. I’ll take a closer look and I’ll help you choose,” said Elena, not wanting to make her lover’s spirit fade.
“I’ll be waiting,” Jayden added, snuggling into his position so he could fall asleep.
However, everything was interrupted when the phone vibrated instead. The name of the father-in-law is clearly displayed.
Jayden and Elena looked at each other.
“Hello, dad!” said Jayden putting the phone to his ear.
“Jayden, are you with Hera now?” Andrew asked.
Jayden looked at Elena first before replying, “Yeah. What’s wrong, Dad?”
“Come with Hera tomorrow. I have something I want to talk to you about.”
