(π« Her Scent, His Weakness π§‘)
β’β’β’ 9 AM β’β’β’
Sophia bowed her head in anguish when a police man led her to the meeting room where Titan was seated waiting for her.
Disgust filled his face when he saw her, he couldn’t believe the woman he’d been living with all this while was capable of trying to hurt his daughter whereas her son lived with him.
βYou’ve 10minutesβ the man announced and Titan coughed lightly.
βI don’t intend to stay for 10 minutes, you’ve nothing to worry aboutβ Titan said and the police man nodded before walking out of the door.
βSign these.. β Titan said coldly placing a folder on the desk separating them and that was when Sophia looked up.
Her eyes scanned the folder and no-one needs to tell her what’s in there.
βWhat are these? β she asked in a tiny voice and Titan chuckled.
βA woman who mΕ«rdered her husband and almost k!lled my daughter won’t be that daft, so please don’t waste my timeβ Titan said and Sophia took in her lips.
βI’m sorry, it was the work of the..β she was saying.
βPlease spare me that sh!t and sign those papers alreadyβ Titan said rising from his chair.
Sophia stared at the documents in front of her for a while before shaking her head..
βI’m not gonna sign those.. This marriage is the only thing I have to hold onto nowβ she said in an incredibly low voice.
Titan huffed before snatching the documents from the desk..
βSee you in court thenβ he said coldly before storming out.
βTi.. β she wanted to call but he was already gone.
The police man came in almost immediately leading her back to her cell until her trial in court.
β’β’β’ Greenville Hospital β’β’β’
βYou okay? Sure you can walk?β Bradley asked concerned as both mother and daughter walked out of the hospital.
Iris rolled her eyes..
βNot like you’d carry me anywaysβ she muttered looking away as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
Bradley squatted in front of her and Iris looked around before walking past him, her face was flushed.. Anna smiled.
Bradley groaned as he stood before running after them..
βLet me take you homeβ he offered and Iris paused before agreeing to go with him.
βUm.. Well, thank youβ she muttered and Bradley just nodded.
β’β’β’ 15 minutes later β’β’β’
βWhose house is this?β Iris asked when Bradley turned off the ignition.
Bradley smirked..
βMy homeβ he muttered before coming down from the car and helping Anna out. Iris sat inside speechless.
Why on earth would he bring them to his house?
Bradley opened Iris’s side of the door signalling her to come out.
βWhy are we here?β Iris asked looking around the impossibly huge mansion.
βBecause your house is a wreck and you won’t want to return back there after seeing the state your ‘friend’ is inβ Bradley said before strolling into the house with Anna in his arms leaving Iris to follow from behind.
Somehow he always has the right thing to say..
She followed behind marvelling at the hugeness of the house..
β’β’β’β’
βIs the transfer papers ready?β Titan asked and the doctor shook his head.
βI’m sorry sir, but we can’t do a transfer at this point, she’s supposed to be up in the next day or twoβ the man said and Titan nodded before extending his hand for a handshake.
He stood up and left the doctor’s office and got his phone..
βJordan.. Is about Megan, she got shot.. β
β’β’β’β’
You’re leaving? Iris asked seeing Bradley with his suitcase climbing down the stairs.
βYeah, business trip.. Got a flight to catch by 12, it’s 10 nowβ Bradley said checking his wristwatch.
βOh.. β Iris muttered and turned around to leave.
βYou can come along tho.. As my secretaryβ Bradley offered and Iris paused before turning around.
βI.. resigned already remember?β she muttered and Bradley nodded.
βYeah I know but.. At least you could still work until it’s up to one monthβ he shrugged and Iris remained quiet.
βI.. can’t leave Anna, we just got hereβ she looked around rubbing her arms.
βThe maids could take care of her and.. Bryan. Seemed she liked himβ Bradley said and Iris’s eyes widened.
βBryan?! So he could take her away again?β she asked her brows forming a cute v.
βDon’t worry he won’t be able to leave with Annaβ Bradley added and Iris rubbed her temple.
βGosh, I.. β
βPlease..β Bradley pouted and Iris chuckled before rolling her eyes.
βYou look ugly doing thatβ she said before walking back to the room Bradley gave them.
βI take that as a yes thenβ he called after her but definitely got no response, he smiled before getting his phone.
βBook an additional flight for MS. Irisβ Bradley said into the phone.
βBut sir.. β
βNo buts Jocelyn, do as you’re toldβ Bradley said before disconnecting the call.
β’β’β’ 11am, Berkshire β’β’β’
βI’m asking for the last time Nate, where is your brother?!β Robert asked and Nate shuddered, if only Maxwell had listened to him
βHe left dadβ he muttered and Robert took in dip breaths.
βThat’s what you’ve been saying, where did he go exactly?β he asked and Nate took in a deep breath.
βHe went to Dallasβ he muttered in fright taking a step back.
Robert’s eyes almost bulged out..
βAnd why would he go to Dallas without telling me? Just why?! β he yelled making Nate cower in fright.
βHe.. He found herβ his voice came out more like a whisper.
βAnd who did he find?β Robert asked almost immediately.
Nate gulped in nothing before raising his gaze to meet his father’s.
βI.. Irisβ..
β’β’β’ Sansville Airportβ’β’β’
βCan’t believe I agreed to come with youβ Iris murmured as the chauffeur drove into the airport, she was very much aware of the fact that they were guards following behind.
For starters, she’d never been to an airport before maybe that’s why she’d agreed to come with him..
That’s what she’s trying to convince herself to believe but she knew deep down that she loves being around him.
βHey, we’re hereβ Bradley announced before getting off the car, Iris rolled her eyes before getting off too.
The chauffeur carried out their bags placing it in front of them.
βIs there anything else sir?β the man asked and Bradley glanced at Iris who was picking her nails.
βDon’t let Bryan leave the house with Annaβ he said and the man raised his brows.
βWho’s Anna sir?β he asked and Bradley almost smashed his head
βThe little girl in the mansion, don’t let her leave the mansion. We’ll be back in two days timeβ he said and waved his hands dismissing the man.
The man drove the car away and soon the guards had left too.
Iris scratched her hair before turning to Bradley..
βWhere did you say we’re going again?β she asked flushed.
This was the first question she was supposed to ask but.. then she didn’t which was very embarrassing.
βWe’re going to Japan, hurry up..our flight will be leaving soonβ Bradley said walking to the terminal.
Iris froze on her spot..
βWait.. What!β she almost screamed but was quick enough to place her hand over her mouth.
Oh boy.. She should have thought better..
βIris!β Bradley called and Iris grabbed her bag before hurrying after him.
β’β’β’ Dallas, TXβ’β’β’
βBy my map, she’s supposed to be hereβ Maxwell grinned as he arrived at a compound with different apartments.
He stared at the map on his phone and his face paled in horror..
The map was showing red instead of green, that only means one thing.. She isn’t here
βF**k!β Maxwell screamed roughing his hair..
βNo matter where you go I’ll find youβ he muttered to himself, he took a last look at the apartments before walking away.
β’β’β’ 10pm, Hillside Hotel β’β’β’
Iris was quiet dragging her bag beside her, the hotel was beautiful.. Looking at it, there were more of English than Japanese inside.
She was sure maybe it’s because of the time zone, it’s night time already here..
So it was more like a foreign hotel, she’d pretended not to see Jocelyn shooting beams at her with her eyes.
She couldn’t believe she’s in Japan.. Never in her wildest dream had she imagined to be here.
βYou booked the rooms right?β Bradley asked when they arrived at the reception.
βYes sirβ Jocelyn muttered before walking to the receptionist.
Bradley and Iris stood behind, not a word was passed between them until Jocelyn returned.
Iris was already feeling uncomfortable, why would he bring her here if he wasn’t gonna speak to her.
Infact, what’s her job here?
She was feeling extremely foolish and wish she could just disappear and go back to her daughter who just got discharged from the hospital.
βHere, these are the keys to your roomsβ Jocelyn said dragging Iris out of her reverie.
Bradley took his card key and left immediately without a word to the both women.
βWhy are you here anyways?β Jocelyn asked and Iris frowned
βI have nothing to say to youβ she muttered before leaving for her room.
β’β’β’
Bradley came out of the bathroom wiping his hair with a towel, he reached for his short pants slipping it on while still trying to dry his hair.
He knew he acted weird earlier but everything had a reason and he wasn’t ready to explain…
There was a knock on his door, he reached for his phone..
It was almost 11pm, now who wouldn’t be asleep by this time?
He put away the towel before going for the door..
βIris? What are you doing here?β Bradley asked looking around the hallway wondering why she wasn’t asleep.
Iris rubbed her arms clearly avoiding his gaze..
βI couldn’t sleep, I had nightmaresβ she muttered and Bradley raised a brow.
βAnd?β he asked crossing his arms, he was enjoying the view of her in her nightie.
It was giving out her curves gracefully but he didn’t let his eyes wander far.
βI.. Can I spend the night here?β she said in a low voice and Bradley leaned on the door.
βWhat makes you think you won’t have nightmares sleeping with me?β Bradley teased and Iris pinched her eyes close wishing she could just disappear.
βForget I ever..β she was saying not until Bradley dragged her into the room shutting the door.
Iris was conscious of the fact that he was leaning over her pressed to the door.
βBoss?β she called but instead of an answer she felt his lips on hers, his hands on either sides of her face.
She gasped surprised making him gain access to her tongue, his tongue gliding over hers in a very soft kiss.
His hands left her face making their way to her hips and in one swift move, he hurled her up her arms wrapped around his neck while her legs were around his torso.
Bradley broke the kiss, his hot breath fanning Iris’s face which was beyond red.
He traced his steps to the dressing table placing her on it, he parted her legs before standing between them.
βHow sure are you that you won’t have nightmares sleeping with me?β he whispered studying every reaction on Iris’s face.
βBecause.. At the hospital..i.. β Iris stuttered, her pulse was quickening with every word she spoke.
βI get it now.. You didn’t have nightmares when you slept on the bed with me that night at the hospital, right?β He asked, his hands rubbing her bare thighs.
βHmmβ Iris breathed.
βTell me to stop.. β He whispered leaning in to kiss her neck.
βDon’t stop.. ..
