Chapter 39
Andrius was sitting on his swivel chair when his legal adviser Atty. Montreal entered his office. The lawyer smiled as he watched the young CEO who was looking like an idiot and seemed to be thinking deeply.
“Earth to Andrius!”Kraius shouted as he sat at Andrius’table.
“Fuck!”In shock, Andrius hit Kraius.
Kraius immediately touched the jaw that was hit by Andrius’fist. He stared sharply at the him as he shook his head.”What the fuck man! You broke my handsome face!”he complained while holding his jaw.
“Gay!”Andrius shouted at the lawyer’s face. After a few seconds he suddenly became serious.”Anyway, is everything ready for tomorrow?”he asked as he raised an eyebrow at the young lawyer.
Kraius smiled at what Andrius said and nodded. Andrius also smiled at his response.
“More than ready. Only you and Anya should be there and everything is complete.”Kraius was proud as ever.
“Good,”Andrius answered while holding his jaw with tiny hairs that added to his charisma.
Moments later, Andrius glanced at Anya’s table and smiled. He already missed her. He was saddened when she ended the call last night but he did not make a fuss. He respected her silence every time Anya wouldn’t dare to speak.
“Do you miss her?”teased by the young Attorney.
“Shut up!”he replied.
The two talked for a few more minutes before Kraius left Andrius. Smiling, Andrius opened his closet and took a box from inside. He turned the swivel chair and faced the glass wall of his office.
From where he was, he could see the other tall buildings of the Metro. It was already dark so he could clearly see the beautiful lights of various buildings. And while holding the box in one hand, he twisted it around. Then raised his hand and stared at it carefully.
It was a black small box of engagement. A Tiffany and Co was engraved outside of the box. The best jewelry brand in the whole world. Andrius wanted the best for Anya because that was what she deserved.
Andrius proposed to Anya when they were still on the yacht but he did not formally invite her. But tomorrow, he would ask her officially. He could no longer wait. He wanted to pull the time and heard from her the answer he expected.
Even Dietrich’s family couldn’t stop him from marrying Anya. He was so sure of himself.
He smiled as he picked up his phone. He intends to call the girl again. He could not reach Anya a while ago, which made him worried. When the other line rang, his smile widened. Anya answered her call but she on the other line did not speak. He even heard her sigh so he was even more worried.
“Hey, baby. Are you okay? I miss you, today. Did you miss me too?”Andrius greeted, happily. He frowned for a moment and waited, still Anya did not speak. He looked at the phone and saw that she was still on the other line.”Do you have a problem, baby?”he added.
“Nothing. I just want you to speak. I want to know what happened to you today. I want to hear your voice.”Finally she spoke.
Andrius’face lit up. His smile widened. He leaned his back in the swivel chair and looked up slightly. He also put the box in the pocket of his pants before speaking.”It’s boring, baby. Without you, my day is very boring. I wished I could cuddle you all night. Kiss you and make love to you, senseless,”he said afterwards.
“You’re really rude, Andrius!”Anya replied.
Andrius laughed at what Anya responded. But her lack of vitality still did not escape from him. She looked sad on the other line that he did not know why.
“What if someone hurts you? Will you forgive Andrius?”A question.
Andrius immediately frowned. His Anya speaks strangely. He did not know what it was all about. She seemed problematic.
“I don’t know. It depends on what kind of hurt. Why’d you act strange, baby?”he said while frowning as if he could see her.”I love you, Anya. You should always remember that,”Andrius’passionate promise.
Andrius already admitted a long time ago how smitten he was to Anya. And even if he repeatedly said those words for her, it was okay with him. She was the only one that mattered to him. The love of his life.
He smiled as he remembered her gentle face. Even when she looked angry she still looked very beautiful in his eyes. Her beautiful neck. Her tiny waist and her luscious lips. Her laughs and giggles. Her bad words that made him turn on every time. It was his addiction. Anya was his ecstacy.
“S-Sorry,”Anya stuttered.
“For what, baby?”he asked, confusedly.
“When you love someone, you can do things you thought were impossible to do,”Anya answered in the other line. She spoke riddles that made Andrius look confused. Even so, he just shrugged his shoulders.
“I don’t know what to say, baby. You made me speechless. You talk strange,”he confessed to her.
“You don’t have to answer. Goodnight, Andrius,”Anya said goodbye to him.
Although Andrius was confused, he did not force Anya to speak anymore. Moments later, she was not on the other line. He sighed and decided to go home. He was happy but something was also bugging him.
He stood up and put on his coat hanging from the back of his swivel chair. He also took his car key. He walked happily down the hallway of the twentieth floor.
Who would have thought that he would never want to run his own father’s business? Seeing how successful he was now. No doubt he did the right thing for his company. Though, he was facing badly on his Hotel de Germania in Germany it didn’t matter to him. Even if the Germany branch was the pillar of his business.
Andrius couldn’t just do things against his will. Never. Even if it means losing one of his hotel branches.

“Andrius…”
From the dark parking lot, Carla came out. Andrius instantly shifted his gaze to the woman. As he looked at her, he realized she lost weight but she seemed fine now unlike the last time he saw her.
“What is it again, Carla? I’m in a hurry!”Andrius asked her. He managed to calm himself even though he was pissed on how the woman treated Anya.
“I’m pregnant. You’re the father.”There was no hesitation in Carla’s face while staring at Andrius.
Andrius smirked and laughed at her. He shook his head before finally facing the girl. He stepped closer to her and looked Carla in the eye.”Stop your antics, Carla. Don’t stoop this low. You know that it is unlikely to happen. You’re on Depo and I always used condoms every time we had sex. Nothing occurred to us. So, please… stop this!”he said. He wanted to make it clear that there was no hope between them. They only had casual sex and nothing more deeper than that.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“But I love you, Andrius! I don’t know what I will do if I lose you,”Carla said. Her beautiful face reflected defeat. She crouched down in tears.
Andrius put his hand on Carla’s shoulder. He sighed and hugged her after.”You can find others too. Sometimes, we need to accept our defeat, it’s easier that way. You’re hurting now but soon you will be alright, Carla. I’m sorry,”he said before releasing her.
Andrius looked at Carla for a moment before finally getting into his car. He knew she was a good person. And someday, someone would come to love her. Just like his Anya de Vega.
