Chapter 11 Sore Palm

• I BANGED my forehead against the wall as the free water slid down my naked body when I got the bath.
• There is nothing to blame but you Emory, you and your fainted heart. I looked up and blinked emphatically.
• "Zekiah!" I said , as his melting gaze returned to my mind. especially how he stared at me earlier.
• "I miss you so much, Dear. I badly needed your love..." I said again.
• I caressed my parted lip. Oh damn! I can't help it! I leaned firmly against the wall and inwardly caressed my healthy breast. I wasn't so sure of what I am doing right now, but it feels so good, I bit my lower lips and traveled some flicks on my skin down in between my thighs...
• "Oh f–" I moaned as I freely played with what was between my thighs. This is what I am longing for, this what I wanted! To be feel in!
• I was startled to hear a series of knocks from my door. " Oh shit!" I said out loud as if cold water had been poured.
• "What took you so long?! I need to catch up my client today!" I heard Gabriel's voice knocking.
• I quickly turned off the shower and got out of my CR to get dressed.
• "Yes, in a minute!" I shouted back.
• I only heard his footsteps in the distance.
• "Fuck! Emory!" I said quickly pulling out clothes to wear. I didn't fix it anymore, I just put powder on my face before leaving my room.
• I reached for him sitting on the sofa while facing the TV. I tasted first before I spoke.
• "Ah... Sir?" I said as he turned to me.
• He made me look up before turning off the TV and standing up.
• He is now wearing his casual shirt and jeans pants. His hair was also wet, indicating that he had just finished taking a bath.
• "You took a long hour for preparing, but you haven't been able to comb you hair." He passed me straight out of the garage.
• I swallowed and quickly combed my hair with my finger. Oh damn, Emory! Shaking my head I followed him out and locked the door behind.
• I reached for him who heating the engine of his car while the front door to his right was open. I was reluctant to ride because I didn't know where I was going to ride.
• He glanced at me so my heart pounded even more.
• "Hop in!" he said looking down at his side.
• I nodded quickly and got into his car. In a few moments we were riding along the sea shore without any of us speaking.
• Only just a sighed and a shift that I hear that made me close my eyes sometimes. I even had to look out the window to spend the rest of our flight there.
• "Where is your husband?"
• I sat up straight when he spoke. I held my chest for a moment before answering.
• "H-he's out of town right now." There is a sore throat I said.
• "Business matter?" This question again.
• "Yeah..."
• I nodded, refocusing myself looking out the window.
• "I know you don't have any experience in housekeeping but why did you still come in? "Direct to the point of his question.
• I bit my lower lip and thought of an answer.
• "As I've said, I want to make a living while I'm here."
• "I do not believe." He shaking his head.
• I seemed to be sweating from sticking to what he had said. All this time he doesn 't believe my lies? I immediately felt afraid that he might be suspicious of me.
• "But I know Alessandra wants you so I can't do anything." He shrugged and said that my chest tightened even more.
• "But ones you broke our trust, I won't hesitate to kick you out of the house," he seriously says that I nodded slightly at him.
• "What is that?" He turned to look at my sore palms.
• "Oh, nothing... I got some sore" I wrapped my two hands so he couldn't see the wounds.
• Again, a heavy sigh he let out next to me so I inhaled.
• "I know, I maybe bad sometimes. I'm really sorry," he apologized.
• I was shocked by what he said. I wanted to cloud my eyes because of the emotion that arose because of what he said.
• "Its – okay, you are the boss! I've learned my mistake," I said.
• "If it was just me, I wouldn't want to hire an assistant first. We're actually enjoying our company together, but you're already here, where my wife is happy." he adds more.
• I swallowed the pain and my lips quivered. Forcefully suppresses emotion.
• "Do you really love your wife, aren't you?" I glanced at him and asked for an answer.
• He laughs , and shook his head repeatedly. I leaned on the backrest because of his laughter.
• "Do you ever loved someone so much?"he asked me instead.
• For God damn sake, do I have to answer that?
• "Would you do anything for him?" He question again.
• Silence lingered between us. I couldn't find a word to speak. I was on the edge of answering his question but I had hesitation to answer back.
• "Are you happy with Alessandra?" That's what came out of my lips.
• Again, he just laughed at me so I folded my arms and looked out the window again.
• "Of course, I am happy with Alessandra, I loved my wife so much," he said in baritone voice.
• I nodded and smiled bitterly.
• "Yeah, like what you said. I really love my husband too. I am happy being with him." I couldn't help but cloud my eyes.
• "What is his name again?"
• "Hezekiah Leric Grant," I murmured.
• I looked at him full of emotion, hoping he would remember at least a little.
• He glanced at me to see my tears.
• "Hey, are you alright?" He caressed my shoulder as he stared at the road.
• I shook my head and blinked emphatically before answering.
• "I love him, I love him so much, but he doesn't even remember anything... especially me," I whispered.
