The next morning, both Kris and Lena woke up early to get ready to go to work. Lena did not have any clothes so Kris got dressed first so he can go down to Lena"s apartment and get her some clothes.
"Kris.." Lena opened his bedroom door to come out. She was currently just wearing one of Kris" long white dress s.h.i.+rt. She had one hand on the door frame and stared at Kris as he put his shoes on.
"Hmm?" He looked up to her.
"I realized... we didn"t even bring my keys when we left my apartment. I can call James, he has a key to my apartment."
Kris stared at Lena without blinking. Why does the sound of another man having keys to Lena"s apartment before he sounds very wrong? He sighed. Of course, James should have one though, in any case, something bad happens to Lena.
He got up and walked to Lena. "What other men have keys to your house?"
Lena just realized that Kris does not have a key to her apartment. But... they were just starting thought right? Would it be too fast? Nah... they were already sticking to each other a lot already.
"Hmm... Now that I think about it, I have not taken back the key I gave to Andy. That was before we switched the door to auto-unlock."
"Baby...We need to change your entire apartment to make it more secure." Kris kissed her on the forehead.
"You think? But I don"t have any more enemies."
"What do you mean? No one is clear of having enemies. A jealous ex might come to steal you from me or your so beautiful a stalker might come to your house."
"I understand. Then, you should be in charge and do whatever you see fit with my apartment."
Kris smiled and kissed her on the cheeks before entering his bedroom.
"What are you doing?" Lena asked.
"Getting the keys to your apartment."
"Huh? How can you have keys to my apartment?" Lena gasped. "Unless you"re the stalker!!"
Kris opened his secured drawer and took out the master keys to the building. "Silly girl, I own this entire building, why would I not have keys to every single room in this place?" He waved the keys to Lena.
"What?! Why am I hearing about this just now? No wonder you got into my apartment last time!" Lena spouted. "Why did we not date earlier? I had to spend a lot of money to bride the previous couple in my house away!"
Kris laughed. "Stay obediently here. I will come back with your clothes."
Kris left and Lena sat on the sofa and watched the morning news. There was news a lot in the entertainment industry. Andy must be very busy lately.
That was right, Lena told her dad that she would make time to go see him. She guessed she can go see him later today. After a few more minutes, Kris was back.
Lena grabbed her clothes from him and got dressed. Kris chose a black knee-length skirt and a white blouse. She quickly changed and then head back out. Kris was still in the living room.
They both left his apartment and head to the elevator together. Lena was going back to her apartment so she can do her hair and get her paperwork for work. She did not go earlier because she was not going to risk the chance of someone else seeing her wearing Kris" clothes.
As they entered the elevator, Lena turned to face Kris. "I am going to see Andy later today."
Kris stared at Lena but did not reply. Lena does not know what he was thinking about.
"My dad requested it first. But I guess I should just go check on him anyways. Madam Yang is dead and who knows what happened to Eva. James will be going with me, so nothing will go wrong." Lena tried to make sure Kris was not feeling insecure.
Kris smiled at her and caressed her cheek. "I trust you, Lena. Besides, that man is no match for me. I am not scared about you leaving me for him. But I am scared that he will come and steal you back. After all, he lost a great gem."
Kris kissed Lena on her head as the elevator door opened when they reached her floor. Lena walked out and stared at her handsome man.
"If he does, you can shoot him down." She blew him an air kiss as the door closed. She walked to the apartment and opened the door using the master key that Kris gave her.
It took her about 20 more minutes to get ready. She was going to drive to work today but since she will be visiting Andy, later on, it was better if James stayed with her. James picked her up and they head to SHYNE.
When they reached her office floor, Diane quickly greeted Lena. As usually, she gave Lena a fast rundown of her schedule for today.
"Diane, order me some fresh scented candles and a small magnolia tree."
"Yes."
"Make sure it is here and wrapped nicely before I leave tonight."
"Yes." Diane replied.
Lena entered her office and started working. She wanted to finish approving the designs for the LUX partners.h.i.+p launch so they can start the production process. She will also be going out with Kris this weekend so she wanted to make sure she was always ahead on her important work.
Lena had a meeting before lunch. She ate out with the secretaries that worked in her office before coming back. She had no more meetings scheduled for the afternoon. Diane already got the gift ready for Andy and she told Lena that Sophia said Andy would mostly be in his office today.
After a few minutes into working, Diane buzzed in to call Lena.
"Yes, Diane?" Lena answered.
"The front desk just called and they said that they send Madam Li up here to your office."
"Madam Li?" Lena wondered why she would be here. It could not be that.. she knows about Kris and her already right?
"Alright, I will be out."
Lena wanted to be out already when she arrived. She made sure she looking good before exiting out her office door. Just then, the elevator door opened and Madam Li walked in with her bodyguard.
"Madam Li!" Lena walked over and hugged her. "I did not know you were coming to see me today. If so, I would have gone down to greet you."
"That"s alright. I know you have a busy schedule. Are you free for a while to discuss some things with me?"
"Anything for you." Lena replied.
They both walked into her office and Madam Li"s guard stood outside. Diane also walked in a minute lady to bring in some water and refreshments for them.
"Thank you, Diane." Lena spoke.
Diane left shortly afterward so both of them can talk.
Madam Li took a drink of water and then looked at Lena. "I a.s.sumed you have heard the news?"
"News?" Lena pondered about what Madam Li was talking about. "You mean how Kris was able to hug you?"
"Yes." Madam Li replied.
"I did hear about it. He told a lot of his friends last night about it."
"I see." Madam Li took another drink of water. "I am actually here about you and Kris though."
Lena gulped. "OH NO! She could have known right? And even if she does, it does not matter anyway!"
"Us...?"
Madam Li went to her bag and took out an envelope. Lena stared at the white envelope and her heart was racing. That envelope would not contain what she think it has right?
"OH MY GOs.h.!.+ Is this the scene where the rich mom pays off the girl to not date her son! Madam Li, I thought we were on good terms! I won"t let Kris go for any amount of money!"
