Chapter128
"Ryan and Raymond are cousins!!"
"What?!!" Allen could not believe what she was hearing. Their relationship was really like this? She asked Raymond and he did not tell her. It seemed that he and Rita had talked a lot is he doing all of this because he wanted to get close to her? Just how far is this man going to go? Is he really serious about chasing her?
"I didn't expect this" Allen said.
"He also asked me how you got to know Ryan" Rita said. Her voice was quieter now.
Allen looked at Rita. "Did you tell him?" Allen asked with a grave voice.
"Hey, there was no way that I could lie to that man! He made me tell him! Don't worry, I'm made sure that I made the story as pretty as possible" Rita said..
Allen sighed. She knew that she herself would have caved from the pressure. Whatever. She was just going to go with the flow.
"Thank you very much for all you have been doing for my grandmother. Words can't explain how grateful I am" Allen said. It was a good thing that through all of this choas she had her best friend with her.
"This isn't a problem Allen. Of course I'm going to help you as much as I can" Rita said with a big smile.
Allen smiled back. Now she was back to thinking about what she was going to do about Raymond.
****
Raymond and Allen went home after Allen was done talking with Rita.
As soon as they entered the house, Allen tried to escape to her room so that she won't have to face this man but before she could walk away, the man grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"Do you really think that you will be able to run away if I don't want you to go? Don't over estimate yourself Allen" he said with a sneer. It was clear that he was looking down on her.
Allen felt like hitting her head on the way. Why won't this man just leave her alone? What does he really want from her? Is he really serious about what he said earlier? He had even talked so much to Rita!
"I'm not trying to run away. I'm just really sleepy right now and I want to go to bed. It's been a really long day for me" Allen immediately found a convinient lie. She even yawned for effect..
Raymond laughed. Does she think that these tricks are going to work on him? She had better think again. He was sure that he was at least better than this.
But, he did not want to argue with her either. He just found her actions cute.
He pulled her to himself and hugged herAllen was surprised and sje tried to pull herself away from the hug but he held her tightly, making it clear that he wasn't going to let go so easily.
"I know that this is a lot for you Allen. I know that I'm being selfish right now. But I really can't stop these feelings that I have for you. I really want to be with you. Can't you think about it and give me an answer? Don't worry, no matter what your answer is, I'm going to respect your choice" he said.
Allen was suddenly weak. Since he already said it like this, how could she bear to say no to him? She could only agree to go along with him.
"I....I..." Somehow, her brain could not even construct a single sentence.
"You don't have a make a decision right now. Don't worry, I'm going to wait for you" Raymond said.
Allen felt that her resolve was bending. There was no way that she would be able to reject this man. "I got it..." She said. She broke away from his hug and ran to her room.
Raymond laughed when he saw how she ran away like a frightened rabbit. Actually, he was the one who let her go. Otherwise, how would she be able to run away from him?
He suddenly had a new goal in his life. Because of Allen. Feelings that he thought that he would never feel again, he rediscovered all of them in full force.
But will this have a happy ending for both parties?
******
Raymond was in his office the next day working when someone walked in. Without knocking. He did not need to look up. That mad man was here. In fact, he was expecting it. He would definitely come looking for him. It's a good thing that he came. He could tell him off completely once and for all now.
Still, the good mood that Raymond had been in since last night took a nosedive and sank down when he looked up and saw Ryan's face. Seriously what crime did he commit in his past life that he has to be related to this person in this life?
"What do you want?" Raymond asked. Better to get straight to the point and be done and over with.
Ryan too was not happy to see Raymond. He was here for Allen only. Yesterday, something did not seem right. He already knows that Allen isn't Joanna but he kept calling her his wife in front of him. It wasn't to provoke him. He knew that that if Raymond did not want to do something, there was no one that could force him. Except that old man of course. He appeared there and Eve claimed that Allen was his wife in front of him because he wanted to. What is the meaning of that?
"Don't touch Allen" Ryan said.
Raymond laughed. "She is my wife. On what basis are you telling me this? Don't you think that you are going too far right now?" Raymond asked with a sneer on his face.
"Your wife? Hey, your wife is that celebrity Joanna! Allen is just filling in for her right now! You already know that. What do you mean by she is your wife? She has her own life and she is going to go back to her life when this is all over" Ryan said.
