Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

Chapter 88 - Hard To Convince Her

Katherine stood rooted in the place, staring at both of them. 

" Hope I don't disturb you both?" Katherine said sarcastically.

" No, not at all, Katherine, please, come in," Jessica moved away from Adrian. But Adrian was scared of her anger. He knew it was dangerous to tame jealous Katherine.

Jessica was disappointed as her plan failed due to her interruption and started cursing Katherine in her mind.

" I am here to inform you that Mr. Noah of Sherlin fabrics was trying to contact you but your mobile was switched off. So I had to come even here as he wanted to meet you " Katherine said in a serious tone.

She was glaring at Adrian with her ferocious eyes. Adrian thought to tease her to make her jealous. But he never expected his plan would backfire on him.

" I am sorry for the inconvenience," Adrian said.

" You can't be sorry for the inconvenience. I am the one who should be sorry to disturb your privacy," Katherine said

Adrian felt disappointed as all his attempts failed due to Jessica. He was trying hard to rebuild their relationship but all went in vain.

 " I conveyed my message, now I will go to my house as I am still on leave," Katherine said coldly.

" Katherine, please stay at least for a while, I have to discuss with you about Sherlin fabrics company as you already come here," Adrian asked Katherine to stop her so that he could give her an explanation.

Katherine stood there silently for a while.

"I am sorry, I can't stay here. My friend is waiting for me outside. I have to leave now " she said seriously.

" Anyways, you have a new Assistant to guide you. Hope you feel free to discuss this with her. " Katherine said looking at Jessica.

Jessica felt a little bit annoyed. She thought about getting Katherine's place so that she could stay closer. But that was not possible. Her plan failed due to Katherine's arrival. She was not happy with Katherine's presence.

" Jessica, please stay complete the assignment meanwhile. I need to discuss an important matter with Katherine " Adrian said and made her leave them alone.

" What do you want to discuss? Tell me quickly, I have to go fast" Katherine said with irritation. 

Adrian walked quickly towards the door and locked his cabin.

" What do you think you are doing?" Katherine yelled.

" I was thinking about locking my cabin, have you come to complain about it? " Adrian said.

" Why did you lock the door? Don't you think that's a bit odd? " She said and stood up from the chair.

" I thought to lock the cabin so that I can talk in private with you," he said, looking at the burning fire in her eyes.

" You are getting on my nerves, open the door and let me go," Katherine said in a furious tone. Adrian unlocked the door and opened it. He locked the door again with a smirk.

" What do you want to say? She asked.

He was silently staring at his eyes.

" I have to go, I have to leave. I don't want to talk to you, ``she yelled at him.

He ignored her yelling and came towards her.

" Please listen to me" He pleaded while sitting beside her in the chair and took her burned hand.

" I don't want to listen to you, I don't want to talk to you. I just want to go " Katherine said in a very angry tone.

" I am fine. I think I am cured now. I will be fine in a few days. Meanwhile, you enjoy the new Assistant" Katherine replied in a cold voice.

" Why? Are you feeling jealous when you find Jessica touching me?" He asked.

Katherine was silent for a while. She was angry with him.

" I don't want to talk about it. And why do you think I could be jealous? Huh? I don't care who you are, " she barked. 

Adrian was silent for a while.

 She thought that he was enjoying Jessica's company in her absence. She felt that he was trying to make her realize that any woman can fall for him if he tries.

" I am sorry for the inconvenience that happened to you. And I am sorry for the misunderstanding that happened between you and me. I didn't mean it that way. I was only trying to tease you" Adrian said in a sincere tone.

Adrian was looking at her face with his keen eyes. His eyes were so warm and soft and he was trying hard to win her trust.

" I don't know what to hear your explanation. And I am not naive to understand what you both were doing. I think it's not necessary to explain to your assistant. " She replied in an angry tone.

Adrian was surprised to hear her words. He was expecting her to accept his explanation.

" I was only trying to show you my feelings for you. I was only trying to make you jealous. I was trying to make you jealous, because …. " Adrian's words stopped in the middle.

She continued, " You want to prove to me that any woman will fall for you"

Adrian was looking at her eyes with his gaze. He was trying to read her eyes. He was trying to make her understand.

" I am not interested to hear anything from you. I have already told you that I don't have any feelings for you. I want to be alone. " She said and stood up from the chair.

Adrian felt disappointed. He was trying hard to win her trust but he failed to do so. He was upset and did not understand how to convince her.

Before she left his cabin, he held her left-hand wrist and pulled her onto his lap.

" Leave me. What are you doing?" She wriggled.

" Shhh...stay quiet " he shouted.

She looked at him like a scared rabbit. 

" Look at my shirt ...." he ordered.

" No. I don't want to, "she replied angrily.

Adrian was not satisfied with her reply. She was testing his patience. 

" If you don't see my white shirt. Then I will remove my shirt and stand before you shirtless, " he threatened.

She was scared and looked at his damped shirt. He opened the buttons of his shirt. She noticed coffee stains on his skin and his shirt. 

" Hope you understand what happened when you entered my cabin. Before I protested Jessica, she opened my shirt first button" he explained.

Then he continued, " Hope my buttercup calmed down, " he said, cupping her cheeks.

She was shocked to see the coffee stains. She was looking at his shirt with curiosity. Immediately her cheeks turned red on seeing his exposed muscular chest. It had been many years, she saw him like that.

Then he noticed her eyes staring at his chest. 

" I am yours. If you want me to remove all my clothes. I will be so glad, " he said.

She pushed away, placing her hands on her chest as she was so awkward, and tried to stand up from his lap. But he stopped her, placing one hand around her waist.

" Mr. Wilson...let me go…" she said.

" Don't wriggle buttercup. Your movement on my lap was making someone hard. " He whispered, leaning closer to her earlobe.

Instantly she stopped wriggling and stayed still on his lap. 

Then he continued tugging at her hair" You are such a good girl. And you know good girls will be rewarded" 

She looked at him skeptically from the corner of her eyes.

He kissed her neck and nibbled over there while drawing a pattern with his fingers on her waist.

" Leave...CCTV cameras are there in this room. If anyone comes to know, it will become a big issue. Please leave me" she reasoned.

" Do you think I am a fool to turn on CCTV cameras in this cabin when you enter my cabin? I don't want anyone to criticize you" he whispered in her ears which made her heart skip.

She looked at him with disbelief. 

" Baby...you look so hot when you turn red in jealousy. I want to take you then and there" he said and hugged her.

" Buttercup...why don't you agree that you love me. I am tired of fighting with you. Let's begin everything from the start" he pleaded, caressing her curves. 

Still, she was mad as Adrian was close to Jessica. Instantly she bit his neck as his shirt was open. 

With the sudden attack of her, his grip loosened. 

" You... wild cat…" Adrian hissed.

She quickly took long strides and unlocked the door.

" I too know how to teach a lesson to a person like you. Hope from now on, you will mind your own business," she said while adjusting her dress.

" Mr. Wilson… I am going to join in my work from tomorrow" she informed before leaving his cabin.

As she stepped out, Jessica was standing outside the cabin.. She only heard Katherine telling Adrian about joining in her work.
