Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love

Chapter 81 Elsa's Erotic Book

Where their eyes met, Emma quickly looked away. Things had been so awkward between them lately that it made her feel very uncomfortable.

George on the other hand did not tell her anything. He just glanced at her once before excusing himself to the study.

"What is wrong between the two of you?" Rachael inquired. She had noticed an unusual awkwardness between Emma and George.

Emma shook her head. "Nothing."

"Did you two fight again?" When she shook her head again, Rachael sighed. "You both are weird."

She then looked at Justin. "Shall we leave?"

"Let's go.''

After bidding her parents goodbye, Rachael and Justin left.

[Collin's mansion]

When Rachael arrived home, Elsa was sitting on the couch reading a book.

When she saw her, she quickly sat up straight. "Hey, you are back." She then gestured Rachael to sit beside her. "Come and read this scene with me."

"What is it?" Rachael inquired while approaching her.

Passing her the book, Elsa said, "This in an erotic book I have been reading and this scene is just—" She closed her eyes and sighed in satisfaction, "It's f*ucking hot."

Taking the book from her hand, Rachael started reading the paragraph Elsa was pointing at:

["And again, as before, she unzipped my fly, took out my penis, and put it in her mouth. But this time something was different—I was fully naked and she was still dressed. I hissed when she tightened her grip on my hardened shaft and...]

"What are you two doing?"

When Rachael heard Andrew's voice, she slammed the book shut and gave it to Elsa. "N-Nothing —" She got up.

When he approached them, Elsa complained, "Why are you disturbing our bonding time?"

"You are the one disturbing us," Andrew snapped.

"You are very mean—" Elsa grabbed her book. "I am staying here only because Rachael asked me to." She then rolled her eyes at him and dashed towards the room.

Completely ignoring his upset sister, he started asking Rachael about her visit to her parents house with Justin. "How was it? Did Edward trouble uncle and aunt?"

"He is staying there for one more night," Rachael chuckled. "Edward wanted to stay and since mom and dad were insisting too, Justin had no other choice."

"That is a good thing, he will now have some time to think about other things." Running his fingers through her hair, he said, "I am sorry I couldn't accompany you."

"It's alright, work is important."

"Not more than you." Without waiting for her reply, he grabbed her hand. "Let's go to the garden."

"Garden? Why?" She curiously inquired.

"I want to show you something." After taking a few steps, he stopped. Thinking for a while, he said, "Stay here, I'll be back in a second. Don't go anywhere, okay?"

"Okay bit—" Before she could complete her sentence, he walked away.

[Elsa's room]

When Andrew entered the room, Elsa was sitting on the couch.

Pointing towards the bed which now looked like a storage table, he frowned, "What is all this?"

"I unpacked—" she casually answered without taking her eyes off the book.

"There is a nice big cupboard right in front of you, couldn't you unpack there?"

"Did you come all the way here to nag me?" She placed the book down and got up. "I thought you had changed after marrying Rachael but it turns out your sweetness is only reserved for her."

Andrew was about to say something when his eyes landed on a dozen alcohol bottles lying on the bed. "Did you bring them from home?"

"Yes—" Elsa exclaimed. "My friend was selling out his bar so he gave me some of the finest bottles he had."

Thinking for a while, he instructed her. "Keep it away from Rachael."

"Why? Does she have a weak liver?"

Ignoring her question, he added, "I came here to tell you something—stay in your room and don't come out, especially to the garden."

"Why?" She raised her brows, finding it very suspicious.

"You don't have to know everything, just listen to me and clean this up. Where are you planning to sleep at night?" Without giving her a chance to retort, he walked out of the room.

….

When he came outside, Rachael was still standing in the same place he had left her.

"Come let's go—" He grabbed her hand and guided her towards the garden.

…..

[Garden]

When they stepped onto the garden, Rachael was about to ask him what he wanted to show her when her eyes landed on something.

"This—" She looked at him, astonished.

Hugging her from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder. "I heard you love gardening so I asked Ben to arrange some flowers for us to plant. Later, I'll accompany you to the nursery and you can buy whatever you like."

"Andrew, you didn't have to do that—" She turned towards him and wrapped her arms around his waist. "You have already done more than enough."

Though she had been into gardening since a year, she had made up her mind never to mention it in front of him. Rachael knew he wouldn't hesitate to do something he wasn't comfortable with for her. And she didn't want that.

"Hey, nothing will ever be enough, okay?" He gently caressed her cheek. "I don't want you to hold yourself back from doing something you like."

"And I don't want you to force yourself to do something you are not comfortable with." She placed her hand on the side of neck. "I want both of us to be happy and comfortable."

"But I am happy when you are happy," he exclaimed. "I feel comfortable when I see you happy."

"But—"

"Rach—" he interrupted her. "I stopped doing a few things after my parents passed away because it was hard for me and also because I never found a good reason to resume them. But now that I have you, I don't see a reason to hold myself back anymore."

Without saying anything, Rachael tiptoed and pressed her lips against his cheek.

Pulling away, she bit her lower lips and lowered her head. Though her actions were bold, she was now shy.

As she was processing on what to do next, Andrew grabbed her chin and lifted it up until their eyes met...
