Chapter 5.

Edward's Pov.

The ride was a quite a silent one , is she a quiet person?

I was still thinking about what her sis told me.

"I'm very unlucky to marry someone like her.." What does that statement means?

I looked at her and she was just with that straight face, she blinked her eyes several times.

"Are you nervous?" I asked her and she looked at me.

"Maybe it because I'm with a stranger, I don't know anything about you except from the fact that you are an idler. I will start living with a stranger, of course I will be nervous." She replied.

"Yeah, it was just a marriage contract, we can live as a stranger." I said and she nodded.

"And even have a boyfriend?." She asked and I looked at her and looked back at the road

"Yes" I replied her.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" I asked her.

"We are strangers remember?" She said and I just kept shut.

Really tough?

She sighed and I don't know why it looked as if she's going through a hard time..

What's it?

We arrived at my house, it was small anyways but okay.

She came down from the car as she went to the truck to carry her luggage.

It was kind of hard for her, she pulled off her heels as she held it, I guess her ankle must have been aching her.

"I will carry it for you!" I offered her my help and she accepted.

She was at my back as I carried the luggage for her, it looks a little bit worned out but it wad still manageable.

I carried it inside, the house is only having two bedroom anyways.

The luggage fell from my hand making all her clothes to fall out from the box, the zip had problem actually.

I bent down as I started putting the cloth back into her luggage.

She came inside the house and she noticed the bag fell down.

"Can't you carry it properly?" She asked feeling infuriated.

 My hand touched what I was not supposed to.

It was a black lingerie, she saw that I was touching it she rushed to where I was and pushed me away arranging the cloth into the box herself.

She gave me a deadly stare and I bowed my head and stood up dusting my clothes.

Normal girls are supposed to be shy but she isn't.

"Where is my room?" She asked and I described the room, she followed the description and she was still struggling with the bag.

******************** At night.

I walked inside her room and she was already sleeping.

The cold was actually much and her window was opened. So I closed it.

She actually slept on her phone, I guess she must be really tired.

I took her phone and there was not password or pin...

Woah!!! She actually designed this herself?

The jewellery designs look so cool, I can't wait to employ her into my company.

I went inside my room as I took my mask and hid it.

No one knows I'm that face hidden behind the billionaire mask.

I'm the CEO of Larson Industry, we deal with different kind of designs and product.

Jewellery designs, fabric designs, leather e.t.c.

I rule the company, but people don't know I'm the CEO.

They see me as an idler and it is remaining a year for me to reveal my real identity.

I pray she file for a dirvorce before I reveal my identity and I should really find a girl that I love.

I landed on my bed as drifted into sleep.

*****************

*The Next Morning*

The smell of bread hit my nose, what the hell!!!

This early morning, I stood up as I left my room.

And there is no other doubt that she was the one who prepared the bread, it was on the dinning table already as I went to the kitchen and I saw her preparing coffee.

I saw her backside as it swayed, she didn't even notice me.

"Good morning" I greeted her and she faced me.

She really look so cute without the makeup, her hair was packed in a messy bun and she was putting on a glasses.

Is she here to seduce me like the way I do read in novels.

"Good morning" She greeted as she left the kitchen carrying the cup filled with coffee to the dinning.

I followed her as I sat on the dining.

"What's your name?" I asked her.

I seriously don't know her name, I only heard her name once and I can't remember.

"You don't know my name?" She asked in surprised.

"Yeah" I nervously replied.

"I'm Andrea" She replied and I nodded.

"Can you link me to your friend, the vice president...I want to apply for a job in his industry" She asked.

Should I really employ her to my company?

Is it a good idea?

Andrea's Pov.

I can't believe he doesn't even know my name.

What a life!!!

After baking the bread I ate together with him and asked him a favor.

He said he was going to give me his friend's number.

I'm inside the room now and I'm dressing hoping I will get employed today.

I heard a knock on the door and I gave him the permission to enter in which he did.

"Uhm, I'm going to the bar now need to catch up with my friend" He excused himself.

Wait, he gamble also?

I saw him as he left in a causal wear carrying a black bag with him.

"Wait." I said as I hurried after him.

"I'm going out, can you wait a little bit? We should go out together?" I asked him and he looked a bit reluctant.

"I'm sorry, I can't." He said and he left.

So mean!!!

I shouldn't have asked him for help.

I entered into my room as I styled my hair.

***********

Woah the industry look so big, I pray I get employed.

    "Andreaaa?" He groaned and Andrea chuckled at the thought of really getting on his nerves. It was her own way of getting back at him. And she was enjoying it. "We'll talk it out, won't we?" She said and went back to sit. "Of course, we would." Edward said through gritted teeth when he noticed the size of the towel Andrea gave him. But then he knew one thing for sure. "I know I have like the most beautiful name in the world." She said as she fanned herself with her palm while her husband watched with his mouth slightly open. While wondering who exactly he had married. He however liked the couple they were becoming. The fact that they were open with eachother without feeling like they had to mince their words and expressions joyed him. And that was that they had crossed the stranger's phase of their relationship and were bow official couples both legally and by heart. Awkwardly, he tied the towel around his waist and tried to tiptoe out of the bathroom, only to bump into her

    "On our wedding day. You asked me to take it off." Edward said and Andrea after a few seconds of flashing back remembered. "Damn!" She sighed. "I can't believe you are still hung up on at that." Andrea said and they both chuckled as they went down the memory lane together. "But that's not the only thing I can't get over." Eve said. Andrea was curious as to what else there was and she had a feeling that her curiousity will lead her to another round of Edwards cheesy lines, but she asked anyway. "What else can't you get over?" She asked as she inched closer to him, leaning on her elbow for support. "You really want to know?" Edward asked as he leaned in closer to her. Their faces were only a few inches apart at thi moment. "Hmm yes, I want to know what it is." Andrea said. At this point, she couldn't guess anything tangible. "Are you really sure you want to know?" Edward asked again. "Quit playing and spill it." Andrea said. At this point, she had her eyes close and her thou

    And he thought that this was the best way for her to hear what she had always had questions about. He just didn't expect Drake to start with his identity. But it was all well and good.Because to him, it wasn't a bad start at all. He had his guess and his speculations as well, but he still wasn't convinced that Andrea loved him like he thought she did.*Maybe because she never mentioned it or probably because I never had someone tell me.* He thought.But then he just couldn't bring himself to remain convinced until Drake mentioned it. And now, just like his wife was, he also turned as red as a tomato. "Geez bro, one would think you are an high schooler meeting his Crush during the a masquerade themed prom party. You're so red." Drake commented. Andrea felt her blush deepen at the thought of Edward also blushing. Because just like Edward, she Was looking for that one confirmation which she had found. *But then what about the secrets?* A little voice in her head questioned. And

    But now that things were looking clearer, she felt even more puzzled and sure of her self at the same time, then she thought back to when she was talking about Edward as the president to Drake's mom. "Drake, you really can't do that." She heard him say again. "Tch. At this point, one would think you are the older brother." Drake said with an eyeroll. This contradicted every thing she had heard about Drake being Avery swift and precise person. Drake as the CEO of Larson's real estate was also very popular for his rigidity when it came to work and how he executed his work. But ever since she met him that afternoon, he had been the exact opposite. And in fact acted like a child when he was the older son. Especially around Edward who was supposed to be his kid brother. Andrea didn't know this before as she had speculated Edward to be thirty five, but everything washed down the drain when Drake's mom said she respected him despite the fact that he was younger. She learnt about the

    As she picked Edward's fork to start eating, she remembered why the look Drake was giving her felt familiar. She had a quick flash back to that morning when they were moving their things and Gray's look flashed across her mind. "So that was it!" She exclaimed that she almost choked on what she was chewing. And then she came to a conclusion that those people knew something about her that she didn't. And now that Andrea was convinced that whatever made those people give her those weird looks involved her, she didn't care whether it was rude to eavesdrop or not. She dropped her cutlery on the empty plate in front of her before drawing her chair up and leaving the dining room.

    But before that, his tummy grumbled again. "Oh damn it. Don't you want me to have anything at all to eat? I'm really hungry from skipping all those meals." Andrea whined and put more force I her hand so she could drag Edward up.He got up with a start while studying not to collide with Andrea's backside which he had his gaze on.But then, in his bid to avoid doi g that, he lost his balance and fell back backwards. And not alone this time, because he managed to allow Andrea also lose her footing and she fall right into his laps. It looked all planned, but it wasn't intentional. He was only distracted for a while, and that happened. He let out a groan from.how close they were and how tight he felt. The temperature of the room suddenly felt hotter for Edward, despite the ninety nine absoluteness of the ventilation in the room.Even his head was getting clouded with the dirty clothes he had so tried to push and lock up in the past. But he wasn't the only one on this one.Because as

    "What are you thinking about?" Andrea said just in time with Edward. "For how long have you been here?" Edward's sentence clashed with Andrea's which was quite funny and thus reduced the awkwardness between the both of them. He could see it in Andrea eyes that she was tired and he couldn't help but think about how exhausted she must be after their meeting with her family the next day. He didn't want her to be tired. No loving husband would want to see their extremely tired wife. And he just happened to be one of them.For the next five minutes, the couple are lost in silence. Both list in their own thoughts separately, so liters they were lost in two things, their silence and their thoughts. Edward continued through with his flashback, while Andrea couldn't help but wonder what the look Drake was giving her meant. After they had settled and accepted the fact that little Eve's reaction wasn't his fault, but the over proactive gardener triggered it, he had stopped looking at her

    "I should have let you die and let your body get splattered around the car with bombs strapped all over your body, I'm really sorry for doing it." Edward said. He made it look like he had committed a grave offense. His expression was so serious and he squeezed his eyebrows so he managed to look guilty. Even though he wasn't. He was simply having fun and watching his half brother's horror filled face. He could see that Drake was reliving those moments but just then, he couldn't bring himself to give that attention.The moment when he got captured by the other force and was beaten till he passed out. He knew it was petty, but he wanted to get back at Drake for being unreasonable, so he pushed on. "No." Drake suddenly said in a whisper. He seemed to be in a daze as though his eyes were staring right ahead, Edward could tell that he could barely register what he was seeing. "No no no." He continued to repeat the word like someone who had just woken up from a nightmare.And Edwar

    And all the time at that, but he understood that she needed her space and must feel suffocating if he was always around her, so he relaxed in his seat and thought about the incident from that morning. Packing up wasn't so stressful, because he had other people do the work. And the part where he had to work, he loved. And this was in the car on their way from their new house to his mother's house.Edward couldn't help but think about how much fun he had and how much he loved listening to her voice when she laughed. Although he was always one to enjoy his space and in fact demand for it in the most ridiculous of situations, but things were just too different with Andrea around. And he giggles from little Eve, he just loved how it sounded in his ears and he couldn't help but have a little him and Andrea running around the house.The good mood and everything just put him in the mood to ask Andrea when they would consummate their marriage, but they got to their destination before he c
