Chapter 25 – Say Ah (Sky‘s POV)
Dad constantly reminded me to hold my anger, and Catherine and Elenita, who had served in my family
for a long time, were my witnesses to how well I was doing in that area. He told me once that I must be
able to think clearly despite how difficult the situation is not to make a wrong decision for the company
and myself.
Perhaps the reason why I was furious at Angela right now is that she was right. Although flirting was not
even the right word but cheating. I could see that she was too angry with me that she stood up, ready to
leave again like it was her habit of escaping from me. I held her hand, pulled her to me, and sat her on
my lap.
I wanted to hurt her and gripped her hand tighter, but when our eyes met, I drowned in the beauty of her
brown eyes. My hand grazed her right arm, glided upward, and as I reached her nape, I pulled her closer
to my face, crushed my mouth to her parted lips, and indulged myself in exploring her mouth, teasing her
tongue to duel with mine.
When Angela kissed me back, I pulled her closer to me, wanting to taste more of her, but the sound of
the door opening distracted us, causing her to stop and pull away from me.
“Uhmm... I‘ll just eat in the kitchen,” Frank said, watching Angela jumping like a startled cat away from
me.
“Stay,” I said briefly, standing up to make a call.
Angela went back to her seat, and Frank, despite having doubts, walked toward the table and joined her.
I walked toward the balcony, opening the sliding door to call Isaac. I glanced at Angela before stepping
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtout of the balcony, just to make sure she did not run away after the searing kisses we shared.
“Good morning, Sky!” greeted the old Isaac, our lawyer since I was young. “What time do you want me to
drop by?”
“Good morning,” I greeted back. “Isaac, let me get straight to the point, don‘t bring the papers yet at
home today.”
He was quiet for a few seconds. “Uhm, may I know why?” I heaved a deep sigh as I brushed my hair with
my fingers and looked at Angela again, thinking of a good and convincing reason.
“It‘s Dad. I want to make sure my father is okay before I sign this paper. He seemed to like this woman...”
I wanted to correct myself that it was not my father, but I seemed to like this ugly young woman. She
must be a witch, enchanting me with a spell to get curious about her and to like her.
Isaac chuckled gently. “I‘m not sure about you, but I‘m sure about your father being happy with the news,
Sky.”
“Isaac, this is only for a few days. I‘m not staying in this marriage forever,” I reminded him, but our lawyer
only laughed at me,

“Of course, Sky,” he said. “I want to meet her soon. David and Steve seemed interested in her.”
I sighed, wondering why everyone was so interested in her and why I hated it when someone liked her.
Like right now, she was having a conversation with Frank, and she seemed to be enjoying their small
talk. Unlike with me, the only time we really had a good time talking was when we were both drunk.
When I returned to my seat, they both became quiet, stopping at whatever interesting topic, they were
laughing about, but now was not the right time to get back at her.
Later. I will make sure to punish her later.
The waiter came with our food, and though I pretended to check the emails on my smartphone, I would
glance at her secretly. As the waiter finished placing the food on the table, I noticed her closing her eyes
as she prayed before breathing out and smiling as her eyes feasted on the food on the table.
“What do you like to eat?” She asked me, causing me to raise my eyebrows. I knew she was starving,
yet she asked me before taking food on the main plate. Her question made my heart soft, remembering
my mother whenever we ate out, asking me first what I wanted to eat.
“The baked oyster and blue marlin steak,” I answered, focusing on the e–mail that I was not reading, and
maybe even if I were reading it, I would hardly understand its content since my mind was full of Angela.
I glanced at her as she put food on my plate like she was used to serving others first before her. When she was done, she seemed to have trouble choosing what to eat first, but as soon as she got to
choose one dish, she placed some on her plate and chewed the food slowly like she was enjoying every
bit of it. I picked up my fork, and just like her and Frank, I ate in silence, enjoying the fresh catch and
hiding my amusement at her. We were almost done eating when Frank rose to his feet, leaving the table,
and walked toward the open sliding door.
Another paparazzi.
This is why I like Frank driving for me. His eyes are quick in seeing anyone wanting to mess with my
private life, he is quiet, and when he talks, he makes sure to choose his words wisely.
Frank glances at Angela, who doesn‘t know she is becoming famous on social media, and people are

When I looked at Angela again, her lips got swollen. I groaned, taking the fork with grilled squid and
holding her chin. “Are you allergic to squid as well?” I asked worriedly. Her eyes widened as she touched the lips I had just kissed a while ago. “I don‘t know. I have never eaten squid as big as this.”
She answered, taking her spoon to look at her reflection. I heaved a deep sigh and looked at Frank. He
seemed to understand that he had left his plate to return to the car. I took all the grilled squid from her
plate. “Stop eating that. It‘s only making you uglier,” I said, only teasing her but in a serious tone. She
rolled her eyes at me, wanting to sneer, but she couldn‘t because of her puffy lips. “Try this,” I said, giving
her the fish steak. “You have more food allergies. Maybe you should get tested.”

“How about you? What are you allergic to?” She asked, eating the blue marlin steak. “I’m allergic to you,”
I said, frowning at her.
She pouted, fixed her eyes on her plate, and ate quietly. She only raised her head when Frank returned to the private dining area, and her eyes followed him as he approached me to give me the
medicine he took from the car. “Take this,” I said, giving her the bottle of antihistamine, but she shook her
head. “I don‘t like taking medicine. It‘s making me dizzy,” she complained, avoiding my gaze again. I took
one tablet from the bottle and held her chin to face me. She had to take one because her eyes were becoming puffy, too. “Open your mouth,” I said in an authoritative voice. When she shook her head, I
hissed at her. “I said, open your mouth. You‘re worse than Olivia.” We heard Frank chuckling softly but
not looking at us. Perhaps afraid that I might shove the bottle into her mouth, she opened her mouth, and
I placed one tablet on her tongue. I pushed her the glass of water and watched her drink. “Open your mouth,” I wanted to check that she had swallowed her medicine. “Olivia and Finn would always trick me into swallowing their medicine. Say Ah!” “Ah!” She murmured, opening her mouth. I
had to bite my lips, suppressing a naughty smile, remembering how she moaned when we were in bed. “I‘m allergic to peanuts,” I said, distracting myself as I checked her mouth. “I would die if I ate peanuts,” I released her chin and pretended to focus on my food when in truth, I was planning
things to do with her later tonight.
And I am starting in
