The dinner that the maids cooked was delicious. He said that they are all trained for this. They are even good at making beverages. They are now responsible for giving her food that her body needed. After their dinner, they walk outside the garden, holding hands together and he explained further about the house and electronic access. He didn’t mention where the server was.
So, nobody knew inside the house where the server was. This is what she loves about him most. He’s smart and intelligent. He will look through the consequences. He protects her well back then. From people who harassed her and people who almost killed her. She doesn’t need to defend herself because someone is there to defend her.
The only thing that depresses him was the loss of their unborn child. It was all unexpected. He couldn’t take the pain, so he left her. He couldn’t accept it that he didn’t protect her well. He should’ve known. Losing a child was their biggest pain. They wanted to have children on their own even though they aren’t married.
Zach, listen to her back then when they are walking that night after their dinner. It was a cold night and she tells him about all of the insecurities she felt because of her mother. And after a few incidents with her mother, she doesn’t feel insecure anymore. She pitied her mother for not having the ideal daughter she wanted. The painful part for Andy is not having the support she wanted from a mother.
So, she told him that if she would have children… she won’t do what her mother is doing to her. Comparing her to Kathleen or other girls and making them be that someone. She is her person and she doesn’t need to change for the sake of others. Zach supported her on that decision she has. So, they plan to get married without their parents. They plan to build their own families and don’t care about the thoughts of their parents and siblings.
When they tried a lot and she becomes disappointed when it shows negative until that night. Zach stopped for a while. It’s impossible. But maybe there are defects on the pregnancy test, or it was too early. But she bled a lot. Alcohol doesn’t just make her bleed like that. She missed her period for a month, and they thought that it was just false until she missed it again. Her HCG level would be high at that moment.
He looked at her. Then he remembers how people get her drunk although she doesn’t want it anymore. Did someone just do it on purpose? Does she already know about it and still she thinks that she killed her baby?
“I’m sleepy.” She said. He nodded and carried her back to the house.
The security roams around the main house. Checking if someone gets in. He put her down and let her settle as he sat down and check on his laptop the CCTV cameras. For them to close the main house. He checks if someone had entered their facility. The house was made like a fortress. From the outside until to the main houses.
He set the alarm after the guard left and since doors and windows are electronic—he closes it and locked it using his computer and did the same on the lights.
Andy went to bed and she had fallen asleep quickly. After he’s done with it, he went to bed and caressed. Maybe he should start investigating the people at the party.
“I love you.” He murmurs and kisses her forehead.
Four-thirty in the morning, Andy open her eyes. Her daily routine is still like before when her grandfather is training her. She wakes up early. Went to the bathroom, brush her teeth and washes her face. She drank two glasses of warm water. Then she proceeds on putting a sports bra and sports shorts. She went downstairs and started using the gym. She does her tai-chi first and then next is boxing.
She works out for one hour. Then, she takes a rest while reading emails. She takes a shower after, dress up and kissed his lips lightly and left.
She uses one of the motorbikes and drove away to headquarters. She was too early than her usual routine. Everyone is intimidated by her. They respect her so much. They salute on her and she stopped looking at the big guy who wasn’t wearing his badge. She waves her hand.
“One-hundred.” The big guy accepts her punishment and he started pushing up. She continues walking while the lieutenant beside her as her secretary started mumbling about the stuff that she needed to know.
She’s just passing by and she saw a lieutenant on his swivel chair, laughing with his phone on his ear, his feet over the table. She exhales and looked straight away from the guy. She doesn’t need to say anything as the lieutenant stood to put his phone away, fixed himself and salute on her firmly.
She rose her hand indicating him to move closer. He walked toward her in a snappy way and saluted on her. She punched his fat stomach and he groaned. It wasn’t that hard to compare to all the punches she threw on the punching bag but the man almost puke. He held it and still stood and salute on her.
She waved him off and she went directly to her office.
“How’re the new firearms?” She asked the female lieutenant and her secretary.
“It’s ready for you to tests it all.”
“And the new message from Pakistan?”
“Yes. We are ready to send troops there.”
“Good.” She checked a few financial statements and her secretary remained standing. “Prepare everything for the meeting.”
“Yes, Ma’am.”
She stood to stretch a little when she received a call from her husband. She answered it.
“Have you eaten breakfast?”
“I will be in the meeting so maybe after two hours, I’ll eat my breakfast.”
“Tsk. I’m outside the facility. Move your meeting in an hour.”
She groaned and told her secretary to prepare the meeting in an hour. She went out and he was waiting. One of the bodyguards opened the car door. She entered and he immediately reached her face and kissed her lips passionately.
“Why did you leave so early?” He asked as he put his hand over her lap. The car started running in the city. He was busy with his table and she only exhales and looked outside. “Andy?” He was waiting for her answer.
“Well—I have to wake up early and do other stuff. Grandpa wanted me to focus on rising it up and make my soldiers even more unsullied.”
“Are you going to be the next Deanery’s?” He asked like it was funny. She frowned at him. “What? Deanery’s is the mother of the dragons. You are a Mondragon—I wasn’t joking at all.”
“That’s funny.” She nodded. He giggles and reached her chin and smacked her cheek with his lips.
“You are so kissable.” He kissed her more and she did the same.
They reached the restaurant and order their food, but she frowned when she saw a few celebrities that he dated. She remained calm and eat gracefully. They didn’t get the notice that Zach was married but they interrupt and greet him. The other one—tall slim and has that model-like body.
