Chapter 74: I Really Like This Man
Azalea ushered them back down the shop after lunch.
As they reach the floor all eyes are in them again. Azalea felt all her employees are looking at her teasingly but she just ignored them.
Corbin felt an intense gaze ushering them out. He looked around and found a man looking at them in his sideways gaze. He is studying the man's feature. He remembered most of Azalea's employees but he didn't seem to noticed him earlier.
The man sees him and shifted his eyes away from them. He can sense he is not an ordinary assistant. The corner of his lips lifted. 'He is a hound that can smell blood from afar'. His instinct is telling him.
Jack noticed the sharp gaze that Corbin throwing to a man who just turned away. He already watching him in the corner of his eyes as soon as they walk back to his wife's shop. He was thinking that he is one of Azalea's employee because the other workers there talk to him with respect. But from where he's standing he can tell his not an ordinary man.
Cori can sense some tension between the three men and he knows why. These men are all Alpha Dogs. All leaders of a pack in their own rights. Guarding what they think is important to them.
Jack stopped before he reached the entrance. He turned to his wife and looked at her lovingly.
His devil beast aura that he gave to other people changed in an instant as soon as he looked at his wife.
"I'll see you at home tonight?". He said to her while his cupping her chin.
Azalea felt her cheeks are burning red again. She's suppressing her giggling laugh. She knows all the people here are watching them.
"Mmmm". That's her only reply and she add a nod.
Jack kiss the tip of her nose then her forehead before he patted her head.
Azalea's hands automatically grabs Jack's suit. She is controlling herself to hug him.
Jack felt her tight grip on his suit. He smiled then grab her. He hugged her tightly while running his palm on her back and rested his chin on her shoulder. He inhaled while holding her as if she's the only air he can breathed.
"If you want to hug me, no one will stop you". He whispered to her ear.
Azalea felt the heat of his body and the warmth of his breath. She didn't say a thing. She hugged him tight.
'Who cares if they tease me to death. I really like this man'. She said to herself.
Jack and his people left Re-Do. Azalea was still looking outside until they are all gone.
"Uncle Long is here". Cori informed her.
She look around and saw him standing in the corner. Grinning.
"Uncle Long, I didn't noticed you were here". She said while walking directly to him.
"How can you notice me if your eyes are blinded with hearts and stars". He is giving her a silly smile.
Azalea's face burn red. She pouted and crossed her arms in her chest.
"I think you're losing your eyesight, you can't seem to see clearly nowadays". She said then a hmmpp followed.
"You liked that guy?". He asked her.
"Not really". She simply answered him.
Uncle Long walk near her and flick her forehead.
"Ooouuucchhh, that hurts". Azalea is rubbing her forehead "What's that for?". She ask him while knitting her eyebrows.
"That's for lying". He said smiling at her.
"What!.... But I'm not lying?". She have no intention of telling him anything.
Uncle Long rolled his eyes. Lying is not a part of her talent. That's what he thought.
"Kids nowadays are so dense". He even shook his head. "You liked that guy so much but you're suppressing yourself, what are you a masochist?". He said directly to her.
"He's right. I already told her to cripple that guy so he can't run away from her". Cori can't help himself to speak what's on his mind.
"Oh that!". Her face sank and realized she can't hide anything from him.
"I don't think I can have him whole anyway". She said and shrug her shoulders. "Right now he still have a girlfriend". She confessed to them.
Anothe unexpected flick on her forehead came.
"Aawwwwww!..... Now what?!..... That hurts a lot you know". She rubs her forehead again. Her face wrinkled in pain.
"Idiot!.... She's just a girlfriend you're already his wife". He exclaimed to her. Then flicked her forehead again.
"Hey!.... That's already three flicked in a row. Are you trying to break my skull?". She step back away from him now but still rubbing her forehead.
"Of course not. Why would I break that precious head of yours. I am only waking you up". He explained.
"Why wake me up. I'm not asleep". She said childishly.
"For a woman with a big brain, you really are dumb". Uncle Long feel stupefied.
"What I mean is, if you like the guy you should go and get him. Don't wait for him to realize that you're not his type. Lure him to your web if you can at least in the end you know you did what you could. That you fight for what you feel instead of waiting for something to happen and end up with nothing". He explained in detail to her low EQ princess.
Cori is nodding repeatedly beside him. He understands what Uncle Long meant.
"I'm telling you this my princess because I don't want you to have more regrets in your life. Choices are gifts for us to use to find happiness and challenges are the key factors for it. Don't be afraid to try. You will never know what's behind the door if you don't open it, right ". He continue his explanation then pat her head like his own child.
Azalea falls into silence. She knows everything he said are right. And she knows he can see her concealing her emotions.
She's afraid of the upcoming hurt that's why she can't see the beauty of the present days.
"Anyway, I came here to borrow Black Prince". He said in a formal way. He is back to business.
Azalea snap out of her daze. It's business again.
"Why?".
"A PM (Prime Minister) in secrecy".
"Are you going to drive?".
"Yes". Uncle Long needs to stay close to their client this time.
"Cori". She called for him.
"On it". He left after.
"Uncle Long, be careful". She said worriedly.
"I always am, kiddo". He pat her head and left too.
