Chapter 29: A Little by Little Secret Getting Unveil

The next morning, I go to work as usual. After what happened yesterday, I still feel scared. I still not enough sleep and I still have a bad dream thinking about that. This morning, I had to force myself to forget about that and I take some medicine to calm myself.

When I come out of my room, I saw Victoria already waiting for me in front of our main door. I thought she already went out. ''Sister? Are you waiting for me? Dont you normally go early to work?'' I ask wondering.

''Yeah. I'm waiting for you. I will send you to work today.''

''Really?''

''Yes. I still have time. Let me send you. After all, I still worried about you. I don't want that incident to happen again.''

''Emm...don't worry. I think he will not disturb me again.''

''Yeah, we never know about that.''

''Okay, I listen to you. Let us go now.''

After a few hours, I arrived at my office. That morning, I and Lily having our breakfast at the cafe near our office. After knowing about what happened after our reunion yesterday, Lily felt guilty. She keeps blames herself for not helping me.

''Jessa...I am really sorry. I didn't know that Marcus will do that to you.''

''It's okay. It was already passed. I hope he will regret what he has done. He already gets that punishment.''

''I promise to you that if I saw him again, I will kick him!''

''Wow! Are you that stronger?'' I chuckling.

''Of course! I once watch WWE!'' Both of us laughing together there.

Suddenly, Aurora appeared. She casually takes a seat beside us. Both of us look at her awkwardly. She just smiles at us and begins her talk. In fact, she actually has something to ask us.

I was surprised when she asks about Emmanuel at us. She asks about Emmanuel's personal question and all about him. I remained silent. Lily noticed that and she just answers her with a short answer and just giving her an unclear answer.

I feel a little jealous when she keeps talking about him and she really wanted to make Emmanuel be her boyfriend. It looks like Aurora has kept her eyes on Emmanuel as he was a perfect guy. But, the thing I was shocked to hear her say is, she didn't care if Emmanuel has a girlfriend or not. She will get him whatever way.

Then, when Emmanuel and a few managers were coming into the cafe, Aurora immediately approaches them. I was watching her coming closer to him and lean on him closer. I cannot do anything but only can be looking at them. I just give a smile to him and both I and Lily going out from there.

That day, I can't focus to do my work. I keep daydream and still remember about Aurora said earlier. I was confused and I don't know what to do. If we reveal our relationship, I afraid I will give a bad reputation to him. I don't want to be the effect of his works. After all, he is our Chairman.

''Jessa? Jessa?'' Lily called her.

''Huh?''

''Are you okay?''

''Yeah. I'm okay.''

''I know you still thinking about what is she saying before, right? Dont think too much about that. She will not dare to do anything. If you want, you can tell him about this.''

''Um...I don't think it the good way. I don't want him to think that I was being too over jealousy.''

''No. I think, he should know about it.''

''Mm... it's okay. I will think about it later.''

''Or, do you need my help? I will tell him about that.''

''No, Lily. I know what I should do next. I will not let her snatch my man easily.''

''Wow! Is that you, Jordyn Jessa? I haven't heard you say that in a long time.'' She chuckles.

''Well, I have to learn about that. But, I think you must be an expert from me as you already married.''

''Of course, I know about many things!''

We just burst into laughter after saying all of that.

Later on, I didn't realize that work hour was over. I sitting pensively there and looking at my computer blankly. Suddenly, someone was whispering softly into my ears.

''My love...''

''Karson! You startled me.'' Then, I instantly look around at the office. I was worried if someone saw us there together.

''Don't worry, all of them already going back.''

''Oh. Um...I didn't realize it.''

''Are you okay?''

''Yeah, I'm okay,'' I said but didn't look at his eyes.

Emmanuel feels something was wrong. But, he tried to make it as usual. ''Come, let us go back.''

''Karson...can we go somewhere?''

''Where?''

''I will tell you later.''

After a few hours, we arrived at the seashore. I suddenly feel want to go to this place and when I feel resentful or sad, I will go to this place. At that time, I walk with him near the beach while holding hands.

''Jessa, are you feel sad?''

''Karson...I...''

''Jessa, before that, let me talk first. About what happened earlier, I don't feel anything to Aurora. She only our model company and I think that she just only is one of the employees.''

''I believe in you...''

''Um...but why you look gloomy?''

''Nothing...''

''Are you sure?''

''Karson, can I ask you something?''

''What?''

''Do you think our relationship will be in a long time? I mean...I was afraid...if you one day...will leave me.''

''Why are you say like that? Did you still feel insecure beside me?''

''No, I just...!'' All of sudden, I can't continue my word when someone was screaming out asking for help. We in the puzzle. Then, we run toward them.

We reached the cafe near the beach. There was one of the cafe workers was suddenly collapse. I just standing there looking at them. Then, I was surprised to see Emmanuel headed toward them and checking for the man.

He asks them what happened and he touches all his body and checks his condition. I was speechless when I saw him doing that thing. Actually, I not too surprised when he just helping them, but the strange thing to me is...he was checking the person's condition like a doctor.

I just watching him doing that in the puzzle. After a few minutes, the ambulance has arrived. He was talking to one of the medical assistants about his condition. I was shocked too when I heard him saying all the things in medical terms.

Did I misheard? How he can know what happens to that person? Did he learn that before? But, it's impossible. I think only someone who learns in the medical field knows about that. I thought.

I walk closer to him after they left. I look at his face with a puzzle. ''Um...how...you know about that?''

''Err...I...I learn about it somewhere.''

''But, it looks like you really experts in that...''

''Don't you know I have doctor friends? Ariel...Simon...''

''Oh, I see.'' I suddenly stop my thinking when he said Simon's name.

''Come, let us go back.''

After a moment, I was thinking hard. I still feel that Emmanuel was hiding something from me. It looks like he still didn't want to tell me any of his secrets or anything about him. I thought that he will tell me the truth, but...he still has an excuse to say it to me.

Whatever it is, I determined to know about him. I know who is the someone who gonna help me to tell about him. It's his sister, Bella. I have to meet with Bella again and ask her about him.

Then, when we almost reached my house, I gaze at his face deeply. He noticed that and asking me. But I keep silent and just gazing his face. ''Did I have something on my face?''

''Nope.''

''Why are you gaze at me like that?''

''Why? Are you feel shy?''

''Kind of...''

''Nothing. I love to gaze at you and after what you doing earlier, I think that...I was falling in love with you again.''

''What?'' He chuckles.

''Yes, actually...I love to see someone who is helping another person they don't even know. I just can't believe that you have that kind of vibe.''

''Oh, really...? So...I think after this...you will keep falling in love with me for a many time.''

''I don't care to keep falling in love with you many times...'' I give a smile to him and slowly touch his hands.

''Jessa...did you just flirt with me right now?''

''Mm...you think?'' I look into his eyes deeply.

''You make me want to kiss your lips right now...''

''Did I...?''

''I can't hold it anymore!'' He immediately kisses my lips and I was startled.

At that moment, they just forget about everything, and they are mutually feeling into each other. Nevertheless, a little by little, the secret between them will gradually unveil.
