Lena continued to look into his eyes. "I promise to help you until you can hug your mom."
Kris smiled back to her. Lena was surprised to see such a genuine smile from him. He stopped smiling and replied back to her. "Just so you know, those who break their promises to me, I personally kill them with my own two hands." Kris pushed her waist up closer to her and smirked.
Lena felt a cold chill down her spine. It is alright though because she knew that she will keep her promise. They dance another round before Lena called for another 10-minute break. Lena fed Gary his lunch and then went back to her dance lessons.
When they were done for today, Tye was really proud of Kris. He told him that this was great progress. "I want both of you to continue the sessions when you go back."
"Hmm?" Lena was confused.
"You live in the same place, just meet up for 30 minutes and exercise, dance, or fight with each other. I don"t care but making it a daily routine would help out." Tye put the speakers away. "I sent both of you a sample of a weekly routine."
"What are you doing then? Seems like I am doing your job." Lena pointed out.
"Well, I am taking care of Gary until he is back in shape. I think this is a good compromise." Tye threw Gary into the equation knowing Lena would fall for it.
"I am hungry." Lena walked out first and head to the kitchen. It was the afternoon already and they would be leaving in a few hours. She ate really quick and went to spend the rest of the time with Gary. She told him that they can always video chat every day.
When it was close to the time to leave, Lena went to pack her items. She did not have much. She thanked all the nurses and the doctor for taking care of Gary. She thanked them for the clothes they shared with her and putting up with her singing.
James carried her bag out to the car first. Lena wanted to say one last goodbye to Gary.
"I am leaving."
"I know. You take good care of yourself."
"You too."
"Lena…" Gary looked at the table on the side of his bed. "Take the lucky charm back with you."
Lena looked at the lucky charm that she gave to Gary when they first separated. "Why? I gave it to you."
"Take it back. I am well now, it"s better if you take it back. You need to be extra lucky because I am not there."
"Ok." Lena wanted to say that her grandmother made her more, but this one did have special luck powers. She removed it from its place and wrapped it around her wrist, where she always wear a bracelet that Gary gave her.
She walked out the door. "Next time you see me, I"ll know how to shoot a gun." She gave Gary a thumbs up and left.
Lena was the last one to get inside the car. Collin was driving and James at up front with him. Kris sat on the opposite side of her. "Where"s Keso?"
"He drove his own car here. He will be leaving later tonight." Kris responded but he was focused on his tablet.
Lena put on her seatbelt and the car drove off. She stared back at the mansion. She"ll miss it here. It has only been a week but it felt like home here. She sighed... time to go back and be a working adult and slay some dragons.
She took out her own work tablet and looked through more files. She has her meeting with the b.a.s.t.a.r.d Mike Zhao on Wednesday so she needed to plan for that.
Kris closed his tablet and look at Lena was she made her thinking faces. He smiled at her. "So.. how are you going to make the Yang family turn against each other?"
Lena looked up from her tablet. "Simple, steal my man back."
"Your man?"
"Well, he"s not my man anymore. Just a puppet."
Kris had a sudden intention to kill the "her man" but when she said puppet, he calmed down. "You lost to a pauper, what makes you think you can take him back?" He was curious about what evil plan Lena has thought of.
"Well... Andy likes a sweet girl so that"s what I will be. Show him I can be sweeter. And along the way, make sure Eva slips up her act. I know Andy more than she and I can use that to my advantage. How"s it going on your end?"
"I will retract the bid on the Agato land auction last minute. I have to make sure Bai Wentao jacked up his bid first and foremost. After that, it"s very simple to expose him." Kris grinned. They have already found enough information on Bai Wentao and his corrupt business. Keso also confirmed that it was Bai Wentao who was hiding the scarred face man. Getting rid of Bai Wentao would give him access to that man and remove one Madam Yang"s back power.
"By any chance, you know what the pill you took last time was?" Lena asked.
"The pill? Why do you want to know? Are you going to use that on Andy?"
"No. But Eva is... I want to know what I am dealing with."
"The pill is unstable. It can only be digested in its full pill form. Apart from the initial pain from taking it, the person can pa.s.s the effects of the pills through body liquid."
Lena bit her nail and considered how this will affect her plan. "That means if Eva kissed Andy then he will have the effects too... That will complicate things."
"There is an antidote."
Lena"s eyes sparkled. "Really?!"
"I can have Collin deliver some to you." Kris can feel that Lena was happy. But he was wondering about something else in her plan. "Why do you not want her to sleep with him?"
"Gut feeling."
"That again..." Kris never liked that answer. "What kind?"
"Hm... Eva would only resort to such things if she wanted to get pregnant, or she already is. And if she is, that baby is not Andy"s."
"And if she is not pregnant?"
"A baby will tie a man to her. It would be another reason for them to get married faster. But it does not matter to me if they slept together or got married, I can still steal him back. Especially, exposing her nasty methods to Andy."
"If Eva does succeed in bearing his child, would Andy turn against her?"
"I"ll make it look like the child is not his. I only need him to believe it for a while until you guys. .h.i.t them with the jackpot. If I am able to get Andy by me, imagine the face on Madam Yang, losing both of her sons to the same woman!" Lena laughed menacingly.
"You"re evil."
"Learned from the best. You included."
