The Billionaire's Revenge

Chapter 67: Sweet

Andra Erlina Milburn’s Point of View

It actually tastes sweet. I don’t know, I’ve been craving for some Korean noodles and it was the Jjampong I’m craving for. We were just silently eating when I suddenly caught Zacarias taking glimpses of me. He wasn’t eating at all but only gawking, causing my eyebrows to be furrowed.

“I thought you were hungry?” I asked.

He put down the chopsticks he was holding the crossed his arms. He went back on the sofa who was just behind us and sat there. He tapped his lap, allowing me to sit on it.

“Sit here,” he said as his palms rested on his lap.

“But there’s a blanket covering the ground. It’s not dirty,” I firedback like a child.

He took a subtle whiff and didn’t said anything. Zacarias held my hand, he motioned me to sit on his lap while I was still holding my food and eating it. I was now on top of his lap while both of his hands were on my waist.

My eyes drifted on my food. I just suddenly remembered that I shouldn’t be clinging on him at all yet I couldn’t stop my feelings towards him. The anger I had with him subsided and has been changed by something I can’t control.

“Until when are you going to stay here?” he whispered.

My eyebrows arched. “Why? It’s just for only half of the day yet you’re already longing for me,” I joked then chuckled.

Zacarias didn’t talk. He only tightened his grip then spoke. “I’ll pay for his hospital bills.”

On what he said, I stopped on what I was doing and drifted my eyes on him; shocked on what he said. As much as I want to stay here the whole time, I couldn’t. We’re short when it comes to money. I have my needs as well as a student and I can’t just stop my school to work since I’m already at the peak.

I don’t know. I’m kind of hesitating about things. I tried to search for the joke in his eyes but I couldn’t find any.

“Maybe there’s more way for you to help me… like allowing me to work there?” I asked, a bit hesitant and couldn’t look at him directly in his eyes.

“What kind of work do you want?” he asked. “Aren’t you already working for me?” he then raised his one eyebrows.

It took me a second before I finally get what he wanted to say. “I already told you from the start. You will work for me, solely for me. I’m the one you’re going to do the work, lady,” he said before moving his face closer to mine like he was wanting for a kiss.

I put down the food I was holding before clinging on his neck. Instead of getting angry or annoyed, I only snorted whilst looking at him.

“Why can’t I work for your company when the boss is you?” I asked.

He only snorted and didn’t speak. As if something in his mind suddenly annoyed him. Zacarias remained silent while I was just looking at him. Slowly, his hands went on my legs whilst caressing it softly.

“Why not help you directly?”

“But you’re already paying me a large sum of money and I think it’s too much for you to shoulder my brother and my burden. I mean… don’t get me wrong. I appreciated it but I really think it’s too much when…”

Zacarias spoke, “That’s because we had a deal, Andra. We had an agreement. I had my needs and you had yours.” He stated in which he was right about that thing.

“I want to work…” I said whilst looking at my hand. “But we had an agreement stating I should only be working solely for you. I don’t think it’s a good idea to work for someone else without your permission as it was written on the paper. Besides, I have no other options or someone I know to work for…”

He chuckled then kissed my cheeks. “You’re studying. Might as well focus on that one then I’ll help.”

“I’d still want to try another way of earning money before I accept that though. I’ll apply first,”

He groaned. “I’m already offering you something you wouldn’t be able to work hard. But I get you…” he explained.

I don’t want to accept his offer because I don’t want to rely on him too much. I already have a lot on my plate right now and his offer to me of carrying his hospital bills would be something beneficial only for me. I’m already old, I appreciate it but I don’t want to accept it. I felt like I should work hard for it. That's why I’m asking if I could work in his company in exchange.

But then, he doesn’t want to. He wanted me to focus on my things especially my studies.

“But if you really want to work on my company, then let’s do that. I will allow you,” he said which made my head up to gaze at him.

“R-Really?”

“Only if you give me a thousand kisses right now…”

A small chuckle came out from my mouth. Slowly, I looked at my brother first and saw that he was facing the other side of the bed in which he wouldn’t see what Zacarias and I doing right now.

I leaned towards him to give him a kiss. When I pulled my heads off him, he was the one who kissed me for a longer second until he was now already ready to take off his clothes until I chuckled, sgopped him from doing what he wanted.

“We’re in the hospital!” I reminded him.

He groaned then rested his face on my neck. “Baby…” he murmured. His lips went to my neck traveled down to my shoulder blades. “I’ll come and pick you up tomorrow.”

“Hmm? Where are we going?” I asked whilst massaging his chin.

“For you to work on me tomorrow?”

A small smirk crept on my lips. “Why not now?”
