Samuel has carried her all the way to his room. He dropped her gently on the bed and went into the bath without saying anything. He looked barely fazed. No, he wasn't fazed at all. While hana's stomach had tied itself to knots from the anxiousness."Breathe in .., breathe out.." she repeated the statement to herself as she tried to calm her palpitating heart down . Samuel came out the bathroom, wrapping only a towel around his torso , wearing nothing on top . His chest was naked. Bare. Revealing the appetizing and toned abs that muscles rippled out from . Hana turned scarlet ,when he walked past her towards the closet giving her another reveal at his broad and muscular shoulder. She quickly turned her face away and breathe out through her mouth.

She covered her mouth with the back of her hand and yawned. She took the mini table clock that was on the night stand and checked it . "Oh wow!. It's past eleven already. Can't believe I slept this late ."She stood up and felt the satiny texture of her pajamas rubbing on her body . Thank God that she had later got this exact one. She glanced at the other side of the bed , and wasn't suprised when there was no one there . She had indeed slept in. It's been long since she had this kinda sleep. Without worrying about getting late for work She went to the window and opened the blinds. She squinted her eyes as it came in contact with the bright sunlight. Perhaps Gabriel had purposely left the blinds unfold so as to let her sleep some more. Wishful thinking!.She sat down on the edge of the bed and a gentle smile found the wa

She held both her hands on her thigh and fiddled with them " Well , I thought girls eat some special type of food or drink during their period. You know , to help with the cramps or whatnot. " He asked her againShe want nothing more but for the whole ground to open up and swallow her. Because of how embarrassed she was. Her face was red as a cooked lobster. She really wasn't comfortable with having this kind of what she considered intimate conversation with a stranger ."I'll ...I'll be fine. " She stuttered and look away"But you don't look fine. Your face is red. And you're clutching your stomach. " He pointed out as if he had observing her since .

The morning sun had risen and the sky was clear without any traces of cloud. The wind was blowing gently lifting the dried twigs and leaves from their path . The garden had improved a bit since Emily was here last."Tampons?? I don't think I have . I'll have to check first. " Emily removed the Hem of her skirt that was stuck in the stem of a thorny bush." I think I have a spare pack with me." Mera said as she raise her hands up to shield her eyes from the glowing rays of sunlight. " Thank God. What happened to me today is so embarrassing. I've been blaming myself since."

They had been staying at Micheal's mansion for a week now and everything has been going smoothly. Alicia had proven them wrong of their suspicion with many actions of hers that certainly did not go unnoticed by them .For example ,she sat with them throughout the movie and was even conversing with them like one would converse with their agemate. But that doesn't mean , that they can rely on her. They still can't trust her with their secret .The past week had been totally relaxing for the three of them . They have nothing to do . No waking up before the cock crow , No getting home late. No stiff back from sitting too long. No stiff fingers for typing too long. They were very much enjoying themselves. Discovering a new side to the mansion everyday. They had infact even become a temporary gardeners with Alici

She came to make sure that her son's get married. She knew that something was off , for people who claimed to be couples to be awkward with each other. She knew ,without doubt that those three ladies are hired on a contract base . But she'll just keep playing along. And she's been trying to study the three of them to see if any one of the three has any gold digging attributes but she hasn't found any. The only thing she knew about the three of them is that they've been really close and caring towards each other. And yet they claimed not to have known each either from somewhere before. Did they really take her for a fool?? She'll definitely play along."This is gonna be interesting. " She mused to herself. She should get acquainted with them more , so that they'll bring out their real selves
Chapter twenty fourSoy sauce day !!!."Add a little more. " Emily poked her nose into the coffee that they were brewing. Today is their iconic soy sauce day. A day that they'll put soy sauce in everything that they're were going to eat or drink. Everything including water. "Do we have enough soy sauce for this ?? " Mera asked as she stirred the coffee. "We'll manage whatever we have " Hana replied. She took out the cup and placed them on the counter. Rubbing her hands together in anticipation,she grinned as she grabbed a bottle of soy sauce . She removed the lid with dramatic effect accompanied suspense song that was sang by Emily and Mera . She grinned wickedly as she toppled over the bottle and emptied the content into the hot coffee that has just been brewed. She stirred for a few more before putting into three cups. They high-fived themselves and squealed in happiness. The look of suprise that was mostly seen after drinking or eating the food of the day ( soy sauce mixed)
Chapter twenty fiveSick Micheal stared at the ceiling and drew the covers more to his body. His hand and feet were very cold to the touch and even his tongue felt like paper in his mouth .Coarse and tasteless. He groaned as he tried to stand up from the bed , but could not . He fell back down . He really needs to go to the hospital . "One ,two , three. " He stood up suddenly and grabbed unto the bed post to avoid him from falling . He walked limply towards the bathroom stopping at least three times to catch his breath . This is quite worse than he imagined. His hands was shaking so badly. He took a deep breath and sighed , tugging at his own hair. He entered the bathroom , and leaned against the door to steady himself. He eyes found the mirror and he was suprised at his own appearance. He looked sickly and different. His eyes was red and puffy , his lips was cracked and pale. His lips looked devoid of blood . His eyes were sunken to a hollow and he looked like a skeleton. Wha

She picked it up and waited for the caller to say something"Mr Gerald is here ma'am . " The voice of the receptionist downstairs sounded inside her head . Her mouth went instantly dried and her eyes widenedWhat was Micheal doing here?? Had she unknowingly invited him into her office Yesterday when she was drunk ,?

He had spent the whole of his night , digging and searching.Honestly , he wasn't the only one feeling that way . His secretary is probably cursing him right now . He laid curled up on the sofa , typing furiously away on the laptop . Making series of calls and picking up series of calls.

The red wine was long gone and now she tipsy and the earth was spinning under her feet Her face had gotten red , no doubt , from the alcohol . The atmosphere was silent , serene even and she feared she might do something she'll regret for quite a while unless she get going now . She knew what she had to do . Just tell Micheal and he'll send his driver to send her home . But the words refuse to come .She closed her eyes and tried again . Nothing ! Only a few croaking sound that never even left her throat . "I ....err ...think I better get going .. " she managed to get the words out . In a slur though and he seemed to have gotten the gist of what she was saying as he nodded in understanding of the situation . He still has that aura to him . That subtly impeccable aura . That impenetrable vibe and Emily wondered how soon would it be for to p
