"Haha..." Lena laughed softly but then released that Kris was being serious. "..."
"Everyone has secrets. I had my own suspicions of hers... but only now I more certain about it." Kris spoke.
Lena listened but she still had no clue what he was talking about.
"When you.... confronted Mr. Chen regarding that curveball you threw at him, it only added more to my suspicions. Sometimes you love someone so much... that it is hard for you to accept the truths. Especially the ugly ones." He continued. "She"s still my mother and I will always love her dearly."
"I... I am still confused." Lena pointed out. "How does Madam Yang have anything to luring out the enemies?"
"I said I wanted to clean my mess so my children don"t have to deal with it... she"s basically doing the same thing."
Lena tilted her head... still confused.
"Hehe..." Kris laughed. "Don"t worry about it too much. I have yet to have a long conversation with my mother, and then I will tell you the whole story."
"You should also meet with Ace."
Kris paused and looked at Lena. "I am not the one avoiding him, he"s avoiding me. I am the one getting stood up."
"Ahh..." Lena stretched her arms and yawned. "Ok." She was still somewhat tired from all the extra workout. "I trust you."
Lena rested her head on the window and looked at Kris. "You"re going to be a fine father." Lena smiled at him... they were really going to get married.
"Fine...? Father...?" Kris stared back at drowsy Lena and then chuckled. He casually stood up and walked over to her seat. "How can that be....? You"re skipping a step there. One must have a kid to be a father."
Kris leaned forward to Lena and put his hands on the sides of the seat
"Isn"t that right.... honey?"
Lena suddenly opened her tired eyes a bit more from his sudden movements. She placed her hands on his chest and pushed him back away but he wouldn"t budge.
"What... what are you doing?"
"You made my brain full of stress. I need to relieve stress."
"You can go relieve stress yourself!"
"But... I promised my wife every morning and every night. It"s already way past morning." Kris looked at Lena innocently. "And baby... I am a man who keeps their promises... to you anyways."
He grabbed her hands on his chest and pushed them aside as he lowered her seat back. Before Lena could reject him, he already indulged his sweet love all over her.
The c.o.c.kpit door hastily opened and closed. Keso, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat looked at the male attendant who just entered the area.
"What"s wrong with you?" Keso asked him. The man"s face was flushed and he was hugging tightly to his silver tray.
"Are you sick? We"ll be landing soon." The pilot spoke.
"Uh... No.. no, I am not sick." The attendant shook his head. "I.. uh... the young master said.. um... take a detour."
"Take a detour?" The pilot finally glanced at the attendant. Kris"s personal flight team is mostly the same people so they all had been around each other for a long time.
"Why... do we not have enough gas?"
"Well, no. We have lots of gas. Just that... taking a detour..." The pilot shook his head. "It"s fine, I"ll just notify flight tower that we"ll just be doing some test flights."
Kris"s private jet is a smaller aircraft so if there were just hanging in the air, it can be looked at as suspicious air activity.
"Do you have some music in here?" The flight attendant asked after the pilot made the call.
"Music... Timothy, this is the pilot"s c.o.c.kpit. Why don"t you get out of here, aye?" The pilot replied.
Timothy stood still and just looked at Keso. Keso was confused too... as to why he was hiding in here with them. Did he get in trouble with Kris?
Keso took off his headset and that was when he made a weird face. He looked at Timothy and then he quickly pressed a b.u.t.ton and a soft tune started playing.
"Woah woah woah... I don"t like music when I am flying." The pilot turned the music off.
Keso pushed the b.u.t.ton again and patted the pilot on the shoulder. "It"s fine, dude. You"re a pro. Don"t take off your headset."
Keso put his headset back on and handed an extra set to Timothy. He placed down his silver tray and took the headset. He smiled thankfully at Keso.
The pilot grunted and continued to fly. Bunch of weirdos.
They took a detour and landed 45 minutes later. Throughout the whole time, Timothy stayed with them in the c.o.c.kpit.
When Kris exited the plane, the carried Lena who was gently asleep in his arms. Keso was already out and he opened the car door for Kris as he gently placed Lena inside the car.
"Take her home. And stay with her until I come back." Kris spoke.
"Where are you going?"
"Personally business," Kris replied and turned back to Lena.
He gently bent down and gave her a soft kiss on her forehead. "I am sorry." He gently whispered to her and then closed the door.
"What should I tell her when she wakes up?"
"She won"t." Kris started walking to a different car. He got inside it and then looked at the window. He can"t see Lena"s face since the other car had very tinted mirrors.
He knew that when Lena was very tired, she would sleep soundlessly and for a very long time. Thus, instead of putting something to help her sleep, he instead... just tired her out. But he was somewhat scared too when she sleeps too long so he had Keso stayed with her.
Kris turned off his phone and started the car. He"ll be back before she wakes up anyways. He sped off.
Keso looked at the car that sped off at the airplane. He knew where Kris was going. Lay was not here and obviously, Cole was also not here. He was in charge of babysitting Lena...so....
He took out his phone and sent a small text Hugh. He sighed and then turned around.
"Ah!" Keso yelped like a frightened little girl when he was that car window was opened and Lena was wide awake.
"Miss. Shen." Keso mumbled. Didn"t Kris say that she would not wake up....? "Uh... Kris.. he..."
"Just drive," Lena spoke as she scrolled up the window.
