Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Chapter 88 - Buttercup

Chapter 88 - Buttercup

April glanced at Zane he had a smirk on his face, "Do you have any suggestions?"

Zane was given the go ahead from April he smiled and sat forward, he sincerely wanted to help her and he was equipped with medical knowledge so how could he not assist her. "I was explaining to Dean earlier that you cannot just stop your father from taking the tablets as he may not believe you or you may alert your step mother and she may take it a step further. Who knows what else she is capable of? These tablets are expertly made to hide their original smell and taste but the composition inside can't be hidden from me."

Zane looked happy with himself and Aarna couldn't help but laugh, he seemed to want to be praised like a happy Labrador puppy.

"Why are you laughing?" Zane asked.

"You're cute!" Aarna announced unapologetically.

Now it was Zane's turn to be embarrassed he didn't think anyone had ever called him cute and he wasn't sure what he thought about it. But if she wanted to think and call him that then he didn't mind too much.

Zane coughed and continued, "My plan is to swap your father's tablets for my own. I have made identical tablets for you to replace with the ones you gave me. All we need to do is keep an eye on your mother in law until we either have proof or until your father is healthy and rational enough to make his own mind up and kick the two scheming b*tches out. Sorry I know they are your family."

Zane apologised not because he didn't believe in what he had said but because at the end of the day he had seen many families rip each other apart in power struggles like the Davis family and it was very complicated to separate love and hate when it came to family.

"Don't be sorry I have no feelings good or bad towards them, I merely need to bide my time and get rid of them properly."

"Good, then take these if you like my idea." Zane then handed April three medicine bottles. She opened them up one by one and sure enough, they were identical in shape and size to the ones she had given him to check. She smiled and looked up at Zane, "Thank you for this, if you ever need my help let me know."

Zane nodded, "No need we are friends after all."

"Shall we go then and visit your father on the way home? We could give Lucy a nice surprise." Dean asked. April nodded in response.

Zane glanced at Aarna, "I am off today, and would you like to spend the rest of the day with me?"

Aarna beamed up at Zane, "Of course dummy."

Both couples headed out of the Ivy. Oliver had driven to The Ivy to pick up Dean and April and he waited for them at the entrance. April was about to get into the car when she looked back and saw Zane helping Aarna into the front passenger side. April turned to Dean, "One second."

April ran over to Zane as he was about to open his driver's door, "What's up bunny?"

April furrowed her eyebrows at the new nickname, but she had no time to discuss it. "Okay, we aren't friends for the next thirty seconds, while I say something."

Zane was confused by her statement, "We aren't?"

"Nope, at the moment I am only Aarna's friend so listen up buttercup. The bare minimum a boyfriend can do is text good morning, ask about your day and check in before bed. Now as her friend I do that plus take her out for lunch and dinner so you see as a boyfriend you have to do more than me her friend otherwise you are giving her less than the bare minimum and she deserves a lot more than that so in other words treat her right. She is a gem and I can see you both suit each other so don't f*ck it up again otherwise I will make sure you stay a ghost next time."

April then smiled up at Zane as he digested the information she speedily told him before she leaned up poked his cheek and disappeared back towards Dean who was waiting with a smile on his face. Dean helped her into the passenger seat and waved goodbye to Zane.

Zane shouted over to Dean, "I think I was mistaken she's more wolf than bunny!"

Dean laughed and got in the passenger seat beside April, "He's right. One minute you are small and cute then you show your teeth." Dean held her hand as they sat beside each other.

"I had to say it, it was only a reminder for him. I want them both to work out so a casual reminder won't hurt." April wanted what she felt for Dean for Aarna. If you can find your counterpart in this life you are truly lucky.

Oliver started the engine, not want to disturb the couple but needing to know his destination he asked, "Where too?"

Dean answered and gave April's home address.

"That was a casual reminder, I will stay on your good side then and I also listened to what you said. I hope I can give you everything you need." Dean said and kissed her hand.

"It is not about giving me things I need. Its two people working on the relationship together as a couple. I will give you my time, care and affection and that is all I ask in return from you."

Dean nodded, "At the end of the day you are the person that I want. You are the person I think about throughout my day. I want your good days and your bad ones. I want you dressed up and even more so when you're at home wearing one of my t-shirts. I want us to grow old together. I want you me… Today, tomorrow and forever."
