Chapter 286 A violation
Chapter 286 A violation
Adler eyed Amara like she was a venomous snake which was attempting to bite him. What was wrong with her? She was extremely different from the woman that he remembered. She had been right when she said that she was different, she was something else, something bad and rotten.
"It's that old bitch, right? The one with blonde hair that lives in the castle. I have heard rumors about her and you, that you are sleeping with her. Is that true?"
Surprised, Adler looked at Amara with dismay in his eyes. "What are you talking about?" He asked her.
Amara's voice was high pitched as she seemed to be becoming hysterical. "You are fucking her, right? I knew it from the first day I set eyes on that picture of both of you together. How is it, is she better than me, huh!, you bastard!!"
She raised her hand and almost slapped him but he caught her hand and stopped her just before the slap could land on his cheek.
"You have lost your damn mind Amara." He shook his head in complete disbelief. There was a plethora of curse words he wanted to accompany with that statement but he controlled himself.
"Yes, I have lost my mind because I love you so much, so come back to me. Move out of that castle and live with me. We will be fine on our own baby, and we can even start a family together. If it's money, I have a lot and I can provide for both of us." Wide eyed and desperate, Amara pleaded with him.
But Adler could not believe what he was seeing or hearing.
"Amara, I have been allowing you to vent your anger on me because I loved you once and I thought that I still did but I have been fooling myself. You were right, you have changed but I don't think it's anything new or because of what I did. You are sitting here and telling me that if it's a money issue you will provide which not only do I find insulting but it also makes me wonder. Where was this offer when my family was banished?" He flung her hand out of his with much disgust on his face.
"Wait_" Amara said and she tried to touch him again but he repeated his actions of pushing her hands away, preventing her from brushing against even the hairs on his arm.
"It was no secret that we could not return to the capital but you could have visited the blue star. If you loved me as much as you claim, you could have showed up even if it was just once to express your displeasure or vent your anger. But you never did." And he never wanted to admit it but he had hoped that she would show up magically one day. The magic had finally happened, but it was not as he dreamed.
"I have a job_" Amara jumped in to give an excuse.
"Do you take me for a fool? You think I don't know that the RGB does offer time off? You could have requested for it but you chose not to. So ask yourself why you never did, Amara. I could not come to you but you could have come to me so don't try to blame it all on me and make me feel guilty as if I was the only bad one here." He barked at her loudly with a raging voice filled with all the pent up anger he had pushed deep down over the years. "As a matter of fact, this is a complete waste of my time, let me make this clear, we are done Amara." He got out of the car and abandoned it, heading into the building with fury written all over this face.
She got out of the car and run after him, screaming his name as she always did but this time round, he did not stop for a single second or turn back to look at her.
"Don't let her in." he told the guards who manned the entrance to the department of defense building.
He could hear her as he headed into the lobby, she was claiming to be here on RGB business and he scoffed. It was probably how she had been getting into the castle as well.?Did she even realize that she was violating her authority and that badge by using it carelessly like this?
"I am a fool." he mumbled to himself. He sent a message to his secretary telling him to put Amara's picture and identity into the system on the list of those who were blacklisted from accessing the DOD without his exclusive permission. He also planned to ask his sister to do the same with the castle.
As a matter of fact, it might be best if she was transferred back to the capital.
Back in the castle, the empress left Scarlet's private wing soon after Esong came out of their bedroom in search of his wife.
"We will talk some more." she said to Scarlet.
Scarlet had walked the empress out and then returned to find Esong sitting on a chair at the kitchen island and gouging himself on donuts that were meant for the underworld.
"Oh dear!" she whispered to herself.
"Yaaa, these are so good, they just melt in the mouth." he said and he finished another one in two bites.
"Oh sweet Jesus." she whispered. Not that it was dangerous for a human to consume food or snacks made from products?that she got from the underworld but they were precious. Counting the number of donuts he had eaten so far, those were fifty soul energy crystals.
"So good," he picked another one and she slapped his hand in an attempt to force him to drop it. He had not even swallowed the one in his mouth yet because the "so" came out sounding like "sho"
Not knowing why she was forcing him to drop the donut, he smiled like a fool and asked her, "Why are you fighting me for these, do you want to eat together?"
"No," she rolled her eyes very hard, with a look of disbelief on her face. "Ah, you gluttonous oaf, look what you have done."
She rushed to remove the tray which was sitting in front of Esong. The man probably had plans to eat the whole thing alone.
"What?" He stole one as she took the rest away. "Are they for a special occasion?"
"They are not for you." she told him and she got a different tray, one with chocolate filled donuts and pushed it towards him. "Try this one." she said.
He raised one eyebrow curiously and bit into one, the sweetness of the chocolate melted into his mouth and he grinned.?"It's good, you should have rewarded yourself with the money Big Santa took at the baking tournament. No one beats you when it comes to cooking. I think maybe you should teach me."
"You," she pointed at him, "want to learn how to cook!"
"Yes, why not." he replied with a shrug.?He left his chair and came over to her, then he pulled her down and sat her on his lap. "Think about this, on days when you are exhausted, I can be the one to cook for us."
