Chapter 391 - Are you drooling over me Hope
"You know him?" Jeff asked in quite shock.
He thought Raymond is only connected to Jean by their childhood bonding.
But he never expected him to know so much about Jean and her real family. It is like he and his sister are the only one kept in dark.
"Of course I know him. My big brother and brother Ray are very good friends" Jasper said.
Iris who is sitting beside him entwined their fingers "Just like how me and Rick were protecting you from unknown danger in a same way Jean have Raymond and Rick" she said.
He also noticed that Kiara who is cousin of both Iris and Rick is now acting as if they are just acquainted with each other. It confused him.
" Daniel and Kiara are couple? He got engaged with Sarah right" he asked as he witnessed them kissing each other.
"Sarah is Kiara. But this Kiara lost her memory so don’t ask her about anything alright. She is still recuperating in our family mansion" Iris said.
"Then why is Kiara acting as if you are stranger to her" Jeff asked.
"It is because Jean is not aware that Kiara is our family. It is not yet a right time to tell her" Iris said.
Even before he could ask why? Raymond came and sat beside them.
"Hi little master, missed me" Raymond laughed and Jasper sulked.
"Of course a big NO....SIR Raymond. I enjoyed some quiet free time" Jasper mocked sternly and walked away to the other table.
Jeff couldn’t help but think that Jasper is very different...and just like Jean who talks with a person according to her relation with them.
He said Scott is too scary but Jasper is also like that. His aura is also cold and formidable and his tongue is sharp just like Jean’s.
"Sir...Raymond? What’s that" Jasper asked.
Raymond chuckled. "I am his martial arts teacher but that little brat likes to sit idle and hack into systems. He just learned how to use a gun that’s it..." he sighed.
A gun... seriously?
He remembered how his mother and Iris’s mother were surrounded by bodyguards every time ....he realized that there is something much more than what he was told.
"Don’t fret Jeff. We will tell you everything after this party" Raymond said and turned his attention to Iris.
"Looks like Johann is going to make a move soon. Ask your team to be more attentive...in no way he should enter our base and sub bases again." Raymond told.
His Iris is no longer sweet and innocent now, her face is morphed into cold and dangerous expression.....making Jeff dumbfounded.
"Jean had a plan but I think it is not that compatible with the situation we are in. So, me and Scott will take care of everything. You just be careful okay...don’t forget that you have Seline to take care of as well" she said firmly. Her eyes met with cold eyes of Rick who nodded his head.
Jeff is totally in verge of loosing his mind. He didn’t understand what they are talking about but he is more worried because they included his ’delicate’ sister as well.
.......
Meanwhile Rick and Hope are sitting alone, it is too evident that others intentionally left them alone. He couldn’t help but curse them, Hope is looking too alluring that his mind started to drift away from its self control....
Whereas Hope is in same page as him, he looked exceptionally handsome that she wanted to pounce on him and hug him very tightly.
But alas, she couldn’t. He just started talking sweetly with her and they started hanging out...so she don’t want to ruin this by making her mind go berserk with excitement and anticipation of something more from him.
But this silence between them heated the temperature even more....it made them uncomfortable with their overflowing ’extra’ thoughts.
"They look perfect together right" Hope blurted out and instantly bit her tongue.
’You idiot...this is sensitive point for him. How can you forget that Jean is his first love. Huhhh....I am dumb’ Hope cried internally and knocked her head with imaginary hand.
Rick gazed at Hope for few seconds and he noticed that she is feeling very guilty and probably scolding herself. He chuckled inside and his eyes happened to see Jean and Scott who were talking with Kiara and Daniel.
Yes, they are indeed a perfect couple. He can’t deny it because deep down he has already agreed to it.
Jean is sitting on Scott’s lap and his fingers are playing with her hair while his other hand is entwined with her fingers on her lap. Jean has perfectly melted into his body and has a slight blush dancing on her cheeks. For her, Scott is the only person in her heart and he knew that he should move on.
"Yes, they are indeed a perfect couple" he softly whispered. Making Hope gape at him.
"Why were you looking at me like that hmm..... are you drooling over me" Rick teased.
"Wow.....boss you even know how to flirt...unbelievable" Hope chuckled.
"Ms. Herren....am I flirting with you now? I am teasing you...not flirting" he played along.
"Oops boss. Sorry but I don’t know the difference between these both....kindly teach me please" she said innocently.
Ahhh...he fell in her traps again. She is really very good in playing with her words....if his team and subordinates would have seen this he is sure this would have become a talk of the year in the organization.
But his mind has almost slipped out of its self control when he listened her melodious and silky voice. So he decided to take a bold step.
"Teasing you is what I use to do everyday" he whispered and shifted close to her.
"Flirting is what I do now" Saying so...
