Chapter 327
I just went ahead and nuked her Facebook.
I thought, 'She's not my girl, so why should I put up with her?'
I figured that'd be the end of it, but she actually called me. I was ticked off, picked up the phone, and was about to tell her to buzz off when she started yelling, "John, I've never seen a guy as petty as you. You don't deserve Lily!"
I snapped, "We broke up! What more do you want? Am I stalking her? Am I bullying her? You're unreal. With a friend like you, she's got no hope. You get off on other people's misery, ever think about that?"
"And don't text me again, don't call me again, or I'll report you for harassment."
After that, I hung up and blocked her number.
"Mr. Cena, don't be mad."
Ava handed me a bottle of water, my awesome and sensible assistant.
I thought to myself, 'I really don't want anything to do with Lily anymore, especially with Eloise around. More drama for sure.'
After some thought, I messaged Lily: [Tell Eloise to back off, we're done!]
Then, I deleted her Facebook again.
Yeah, it's a bit of a bummer, but better than fighting every day.
Soon, we got to the airport. I shook off the bad vibes and walked into the departure hall. Rita had a late-night ticket, landing early morning.
Around 1 AM, Rita came out with her suitcase, followed by two female assistants.
Seeing me, she tossed the suitcase to one of the assistants and ran towards me.
"John!"
"Rita."
I hugged her, taking in her scent, spinning her around. She held me tight, and we kissed like there was no tomorrow.
In that moment, it felt like it was just the two of us in the world.
After a bit, we broke the kiss, and I held her face, "Rita, I missed you so much!"
"I missed you too!"
Rita looked at me with so much love.
"Let's go, let's go home!"
"Yeah, let's go home!"
Rita grabbed my hand and told the assistants, "You guys head back first, come to the office tomorrow afternoon."
Back home, I couldn't wait to kiss Rita again.
Judith was at her grandma's, so we had the place to ourselves. We could get as cozy as we wanted.
We made out on the sofa.
Rita was just as into it.
Rita had a special place in my heart that no one else could fill.
Even with other women around, I still missed Rita like crazy.
Rita let out a soft moan, "Babe, carry me to the bedroom!"
In the bathroom, warm water poured over us. Luckily, I had taken off the bandages from my hands before she got here.
But Rita noticed, "What happened to your hand?"
I covered the clearer tooth marks and said, "I tripped yesterday, it's healing now."
"Why are you so clumsy?" Rita said, worried.
I hugged her from behind, "Rita, it's nothing to stress about."
She held my hand, "You're not very reassuring."
"Let's not talk about this."
I held her slim waist, "Rita, you've lost weight, you've been through a lot."
""It's nothing, John, it's all for the company."
"Then I'll reward you properly!" I murmured, my lips brushing against her earlobe.
"What reward? I see you're clearly..."
Before she could finish, I covered her mouth with an enthusiastic kiss, then we started having sex.
The feeling was amazing, I felt great, and Rita seemed to love it too.
Half an hour later, we finally stumbled out of the bathroom.
I held Rita close, "Rita, about that proposal...you don't have to... I can handle the shares on my own."
"No way, you're the big boss, that's not changing. I'll pitch in ten percent of the shares too."
Rita was stubborn, and no matter how much I tried to talk her out of it, I had to give in.
Holding her soft, fragrant body, I felt like I must've done something right in a past life to deserve someone like Rita.
"You're my rock, John," she murmured, her voice muffled against my chest. "I can't let you face all the danger alone."
I gently stroked her back, breathing in her scent, feeling a deep sense of peace, "I'll do everything in my power to keep you safe, Rita,"
"That's what I like to hear."
She kissed my cheek, "You're amazing, handling everything while I was away. But I wasn't just sitting around either. I negotiated partnerships with other companies. We can divert a production line worth ten million dollars, with deliveries split over six months. As long as we have the formula ready, we can start production within a week."
"Then let's meet Ms. Martinez tomorrow."
"She's a shareholder now, so yeah, we have to meet."
Rita said, "Then we'll have a meeting to finalize the plan."
"Alright, it's a plan."
I said, "Rita, you've had a long day, get some sleep."
Rita nodded, clearly exhausted, and soon fell asleep on me.
I watched her for a bit before drifting off with her in my arms.
The next morning, Amelia's call woke me up, "Aren't you coming to the office yet?"
I checked the time, it was already nine o'clock!
"I'll be there soon!"
After hanging up, I saw Rita still sound asleep. She must've been really wiped out.
I got out of bed quietly, left a note, and drove to Skyliho Group.
Back at the office, Amelia said, "Finally, you're here!"
"What's up?"
"Ms. Wilson from marketing is looking for you, says it's urgent!"
I furrowed my brows, "Anything else?"
"You better go see her, she seems pretty stressed."
There was nothing urgent that I could think of, so I shook my head and sat down, "I'll deal with it later."
She came over and sat on my lap, "What's wrong, you look beat."
"It's nothing, just been swamped these past few days."
"Oh, and Ms. Charlotte came by earlier, wants you to go to Mrs. Foster's office later!"
I nodded, not sure what Linda had in mind.
Nicoler and Lucas have been normal these past few days, I wonder how Linda will deal with Jenny.
"And one more thing, not sure if I should tell you."
I looked at Amelia, seeing her hesitation, I held her hand, "Amelia, you can tell me anything."
Amelia said, a bit shyly, "It's not a big deal, but my parents want to meet you!"
I blinked, surprised. Meeting the parents. That was… new.
But I'd done this plenty of times before, so I was pretty experienced, "When?"
"This weekend, is that cool?"
"Of course!"
"You're the best!"
She was thrilled, "I thought you wouldn't agree."
"Amelia, you're happy, I get it, but why are you taking off my pants again?"
"I read somewhere that morning is when sperm is most active, so we have to work hard!"
Oh my god!
I've been overworked these past few days, and I really needed to rest, "Amelia, I haven't rested well yet, can we wait a couple more days?"
"Okay."
Amelia nodded.
