Chapter 70 - Stroll In The Park

Chapter 70 - Stroll In The Park

Karmina watched as her daughter was having fun while eating and scanning the wedding plan book that her mother compiled. Her eyes widened at the beautiful gown and she already had thoughts of the gemstones that she wanted.

"Eat up," Alessandro mumbled as he fed her while she's busy with the book.

"Mom, I wanted real gemstones on my crown. And it'll be silver~" She started talking about how she wanted it. It's exactly what the sketch that her mother designed for her. "And my hubby should look like a Duke with this pin on her bow tie." She kept talking as she imagined her grand wedding. "But of course, only close friends could come."

"Yeah, I got it." Alessandro nodded.

"I'll settle it all and the two of you shouldn't stress that much. I am bored staying home, so I have to at least prepare for these," Karmina told them. "Darling, eat more."

"I'll get fat with these." She pouted at her.

"Darling, you are too thin," Karmina said.

"Mom, I have to make sure that my curves are maintained. I need to look sexy, right hubby?"

"I don't mind." He winked at her. "Why won't you join me at the gym?"

"Uh, I have a gym on my office floor." She winked at him. The couple continued eating while Karmina was watching out for the food that she ate.

"I will be back in the villa and I won't be able to cook for this dinner," Karmina said as she wiped her lips.

"Ah," Keira pouted. "Can't you stay?"

"Darling, I had called the tailor and had a meeting with them in the villa. Also, I have an appointment with the souvenir maker."

"Souvenir?" She asked and flipped it. Her eyes widened at the beautiful souvenir. There are three types of souvenirs that they will be releasing. A heart-shaped bottle perfume, made of glass that would look like a gemstone with their adorable face on it and a customized wine glass pitcher that is shaped into a g-clef. "Wow, mom this is amazing!"

"I know," Keira giggled. "Well, at least those souvenirs are useful."

Alex watched as the Dragon Empire captured those men and put them in one of the Dragon Facilities. He left two hours after Karmina left his house. His driver drove to the facility that takes two hours drive from the main city. He was supposed to be overly excited about capturing those men. But he remained calm and he wanted to see their faces first.

When he reached the facility, the front securities took his identity with his driver. Then, outside, Andromeda's trusted men were waiting including the agent that dressed up as his wife. He greeted them formally as they took him to the room where they captured Margarette's people. Their eyes dilated by seeing him. One man quickly knelt with his face beaten.

"It's not us, please… please forgive us." The man cried as the other man nudged him telling him to stop.

"Tell us what you all know and I'll give you mercy." He told them.

It'll be a little hard for them to tell everything. But, Alex had concrete evidence to put them in bars with Margarette. However, they need their statement first. Written and recorded statement. He won't just sit down and sleep now that he's near to have it.

After hearing the plan that Margarette set up to kill his wife, all he could see is red. His blood ran up to his head, boiling. He tried hard to calm himself but he was shaking and he wanted to kill someone right away. So, instead of going back to his house that was guarded, he went to the villa of the couple where Karmina was. It's already dark when he reached the villa and Karmina was about to sleep.

"What's wrong with your face?" Karmina asked as she reached his arm. "Prepare something to eat and drink." She told the maid quickly and pulled him to the sofa.

"I'm going to move the engagement." He mumbled. "I'm about to kill someone."

"Calm down," She reached his cold hands. "I won't ask you what happened with the assignment."

"Do you want to hear it?" He asked. "I'm sorry, Karmina. I felt so angry at the moment."

"I know."

He reached her hand. "I'm scared of hurting anyone."

She held both of his cold hands.

"You have been restraining for hours." She smiled so gently, as his anger slowly dissipated. "As for destruction, let's talk about the engagement party? Let's go to the kitchen and I'll make you something to cheer you up."

Alex must be lucky to have a friend like Karmina even in these circumstances. She prepared mac and cheese for him and an iced tea with a little bit of whiskey. Suddenly, he felt hungry and Karmina prepared another for his driver. The maid assisted her with everything and delivered the snack to Alex's driver.

"I know that you are tired, Mina," Alex mumbled.

"It's alright, Alex. You have to eat so you'll sleep well."

It's the first time that he walked with his wife in the park. First time as a wife and husband and he enjoyed walking with her even back then. They would talk about lots of topics. She would ask about their engagement party. The two of them have lots of grand plans and who to invite. But this time, they just wanted to invite close friends and he only had a few of them from the circles of billionaires.

"I think it's good that we had a walk. I'll start working out again." She pouted at him. He smiled at her and nodded.

"We'll work out in the bed later." He winked. She giggled at him, and the sound reminds him of their old times. She looked so youthful as always. "Love, we were horny as always back when we were teens."

"You were still horny." She snickered. Then, she swung their arms. "Babe, I just noticed that there were crazy girls about you."

"Yes," He sighed. "I think it's my curse for being too handsome." He said in a very down-to-earth sound.

"Ugh," She groaned. "Seriously?"

"Love, even back then, girls were crazy over me more than my friends. I mean, it's probably from the genes and I don't think of myself as handsome. I just wanted to be handsome enough for you." He said sincerely as he remembered those days. If he wasn't around, she would get bullied, telling that she had satisfied Alessandro enough. He would defend her since he was a good friend and then a protective boyfriend after. "My mom and dad had a hard time in my high school times. I thought that I'll have fun until I have a serious series of nightmares." He remembered those nights. He was safe in his mother's arms until he lost his mom after a few days.

"Glad that you met me." She grinned.

"I am so glad that I did meet you." He pulled her closer. "At that time, we were just best friends, fooling around like real teenagers. I wasn't ready for any crazy relationship. Until," He looked down at her as she raised her head to him. "Until I fall hard on you."

It's already eight in the evening and after their dinner, they were strolling in the park just as she wanted. There were lots of string lights and light posts and he could still see her beautiful face.

"You don't want to be in any relationship at that time and keep me as a friend, but I find my ways to make you fall on me. You had a big crush on Zachary and James back then," he chuckled. "The first time you met them, you flushed like a little girl."

She laughed and held his arm with her other free hand.

"Well, you were the only one that I love, right?"

"Yes," He patted her head as they kept walking around the park. Some couples can be spotted on the benches and every corner. Their bodyguards are meters away from both of their sides and the rest are behind them walking in unison.

"Then, you shouldn't get jealous." She giggled.

"I was always jealous as you speak to Zach and James with that red flushed on your cheeks." He sighed and shook his head. "Still, my heart responded big on it."

"Ah," She bounced her head. "Then, how about," she stopped walking and he stopped. Then, he bent down a little as she whispered to his ear. "How about your lower part. Does it respond?"

"Oh~~honey! You have no idea." He mumbled. "I have to jack off and call you while I imagine the bikini that you wore that day." He whispered and kissed her cheeks.

"I did?"

"We were at the beach with my friends and with their girlfriends."

"I want to remember that." They strode again. "I am a bit sweaty. We can go back now and have a nice diet soda and sex." She winked.

He stared at her for a moment and then, he turned his back to her and squatted as he faced his palm to him, positioned at both of his sides ready to hold her. She grinned and jumped on his back.
