Chapter 13: 12. A Date?!
"Neeehhh!!! Come on now Aaron you promised us to have a date today!" Wendy pleaded as Aaron is grabbing Zade out of the garden to finish the worked he skipped due to the incident that happened.
"I said no! You already did too much together now it's time for him to finish his work!" Aaron said as Zade laugh.
"Ahhhhhh! Aaron stop taking Zade away from me!" Wendy shouted as she clings on Zade.
From a far Mary stared at them with envy on how happy Wendy is with Zade and how warm this mansion felts like with their laughs and disagreements.
"Hey, did you had your breakfast already?" Jayden asked as Mary looked at him.
"Why are you still here?" Mary asked.
"I took a break from school and I want to help you cope up with the sadness." Jayden said and smiled at Mary.
"It's not like you understand any of this..." Mary said as Jayden grabs her shoulder.
"Well I do! You can open up to me and I'll open up to you..." Mary take off Jayden's hand.
"I don't need your pity..." She said.
"I know you don't." Jayden said as Mary throw her out of the room and locked it.
'I don't understand it...' Mary said as she's pissed by the way Jayden looked at her with pity.
"I don't really get it, Why Aaron was such in a bad mood." Wendy sigh as Zade laugh.
"You know him when it comes to work he really is strict." Zade said.
"I gotta spend my weekend properly with you babe! How about we run away?" Wendy suggested as Zade thought about it.
"Aaron will definitely find us and screw both of our free time together." Zade said as Wendy pouts.
"But babe we barely have enough time together since your so busy already!" Wendy said as Zade smiles.
"It's because your attention was all on me, Why not spend some time with Mary?" Zade suggested.
Wendy didn't respond and starts reading book to avoid the question. Zade smiled as he saw Wendy who doesn't show interest in Mary.
"Jayden was here and he suggested to enroll Mary on your school." Wendy drop her book.
"What?! Why would he suggest that?!" Wendy asked.
"It was also your grandmother's wish." Zade added as Wendy sat down and sigh in defeat.
Wendy's grandmother didn't survive and died eventually after a few days yet she still got the time to tell us her last will for her family.
"When I was a child my parents aren't that rich that time and we were outcasts from the family just because we are not rich." Wendy started.
Zade stopped what he was doing and stared at Wendy.
"My grandma is sick and was maltreated by my Uncle. So we fought for custody but we failed to do so since we are not rich and if uncle threw us out we have nowhere to go." She explained as she became teary remembering everything.
"I'm pissed that I cannot help my grandmother because one time I did try to help her yet when Uncle saw me helping her I thought I will get beaten up, but my Grandma got the beating. The more I try to help her the more they torture her." She clenched her fist.
Zade slowly walks towards Wendy to console her.
"Why didn't you report it to the police?" Zade asked as Wendy smiled sadly.
"Money can blind people in need. Even the town people got blinded by money that is why they hide the truth about my grandma's suffering." Wendy explained.
"That's how pathetic money can make people." She added.
"One time we finally get the cops trust and show them the basement where my grandmother was but it was just a normal basement when we show it to them. It was clean and it leaves no trace of suspicious happenings." Zade was shock.
"So they cleaned the place up?" Zade asked and Wendy nodded.
"That time I never seen my grandmother again." She said.
"They were horrible..." She added as she starts crying.
"Indeed they are babe," Zade said. "If it weren't for you Zade, I wouldn't have atleast met my grandmother again before she dies." Wendy was sad about it but it was better for her grandmother to take rest.
"Mary's father di...."
"You killed him right?" Wendy asked as Zade didn't answer.
"I knew you would after what had happen. You just hold your temper those following days because I pleaded to let me handle things in my family." Wendy was so mature that's why Zade was mesmerized.
Yet Zade didn't killed him.
"I have to accept it though, loving you means loving who you are and and what you work with. I also know that it is bad to make you mad." Wendy smiled knowing what will Zade do in the future.
"Can I make love with you?" Zade suddenly asked.
'Sex?' Wendy asked herself. 'Is he being serious right now?'
"Why would you ask that now?" Wendy asked as Zade smirked. "To tease you Babe." He said and smiled.
"Your being quirky..." Zade lean down and kissed Wendy.
"I just want to lighten up the mood babe." Zade said as Wendy sigh. "I just want us to have a proper relationship before we properly get married." Wendy said and hugged Zade while sitting on his lap.
"Indeed we skip that process since we're already betrothed." Zade thought and smiled. "What do you want to do then?" Zade asked as Wendy blushed.
"I.." Wendy was about to say something when Zade's secretary comes in the mansion.
"Era is here Boss." Aaron said as Zade became serious.
"I'm sorry baby, I'll talk to you again later." Zade excuse himself as he went to greet Era.
"Who's Era?" Wendy asked Aaron. "She's Zade's secretary." Aaron answered.
"Aren't you already Zade's Secretary?"
"I am his assistant, partner and family. A secretary is different and has a different job. With Era around it might be a concern for the company." Aaron said as he smiled.
"Anyway enjoy your evening little missy while we work." Aaron said and wave his goodbye.
Wendy saw how Era's beauty is.
"Why are you up here looking sad Wendy?" Jayden asked as Wendy looked at him sadly.
"Did something happen?" Jayden asked as he checks on her as Wendy shrugged.
"I'm okay Jayden, how's Mary?" She asked to change the topic.
"Still stubborn as always but I'll get to her someday." Jayden looked confident by what he said.
Yet Wendy's mind is still at the midst of the cloud.
Jayden knew that Wendy is bothered about something as he holds her hand.
"Why don't we escape here and have a little friendly date huh?" Jayden asked as Wendy nodded.
They didn't bother telling Zade knor Aaron since they're already busy enough with Era and it makes Wendy jealous.
"Say did you see that girl?" Wendy asked as they were on the way to the amusement park.
"Zade's secretary?" Jayden asked as Wendy nodded. "She's stunning but I only have my eyes on you." Jayden said and smiled at her.
"You didn't actually given up didn't you?" Wendy looked at Jayden and sigh.
"No I cannot give up on you that easily." Jayden said. "About Mary why did you decide to take care of her?"
"I just understands how she feels right now. She's just like me when I was twelve years old." Jayden remembers how his parents broke up that he was left to choose where he should go.
He hated adults just as much Mary hated it.
"Plus it's easier to be next to you around that mansion." Jayden added.
"Let's just have fun today." Wendy said and Jayden totally agreed.
They spent the whole night playing and riding extreme rides and when they arrive Zade and Era are already alone at the living room still discussing things.
'I can't believe they aren't finish! He didn't even notice that I was gone!' Wendy thought and got pissed as she went to bed early without waiting for Zade.
Zade on the other hand knew that Jayden and Wendy are going to have a little date behind his back.
"Aaron," Zade called as Aaron lean to hear his voice.
"Follow them..." Aaron looked confused. "I'll kill you if he lays his hand on her." He added as Aaron looked outside and saw the car starting.
"I'll excuse myself boss." Aaron said and immediately followed them around without Wendy and Jayden noticing.
It pissed Zade off since he allow that Rascal to be in his mansion to take care of Mary yet he's already on the move with his wife!
When Zade arrived in their room Wendy put a border pillow on the center and sleeps soundly.
"Your really giving me a hard time," Zade said as he throw the Barrier pillow and hugged her tightly.
He sniff Wendy and smiled.
'I don't know what this kid is thinking but damn I'm all knees on her.'
