The next day after attending a meeting on her another client she receive a call from Jeff "meet me in half an hour same place." he said. " OK " "So what have you found out? she ask.
" He grew up abroad with his mother when his parents separated, came back after ten years to take over the business his father left after he died.then got married secretly to Carah Valle. Meet an accident after a year flown abroad to seek medical attention, believed to undergone serious injuries and lost his memory,,, "
". What! you mean he"s suffering from amnesia" she interrupted
"Yes and his wife missing believed to be forgotten after the incident."
" What incident?
" There was a video released showing his wife making it with another man. Poor thing." he sigh.
" Why? "she asked.
" Well the video was not verified and she wasn"t even given the chance to defend herself, for all we know she was just been framed up. she was not accepted by the Chen family. "Jade process these informations in her mind of course she knows most of it she was the one concern on it, but the accident that led to the amnesia and the video, she was totally unaware of, probably her parents shielded her from these things to avoid further pain.
" Thanks Jeff, Is he still suffering from amnesia? " she quickly add.
"I think so, not sure since they kept it secret , you know because of business concerns."
later that night Jade toss and turn on her bed trying to fall to slumber but still the revelations of this day leaves her shaken.
they were so in love before that never in her wildest dream she imagine to be in this situation.
"I love you so much Carah, I can"t believe that you"re my girl now" Zander confess while running the back of his hand through the contour of her face.
"I love you too Zander, I can"t imagine life without you in it, please don"t leave me." as she joined her hands to his . And slowly their lips met in a light and tender kiss that turn to something hot, wild and intense as it stretch second by seconds. as both their hands roam on each others body,,,
Ringgggg,,,,,,
They both jump in confusion, with unsteady breathing Carah reach for her phone trying very hard to sound normal "h.e.l.lo mom, what"s up?"
"h.e.l.lo dear? you sound odd are you okay? her mother sound worried.
" I"m okay mom just got back from school I walk faster so to catch up with my reading and with my homework."
"Don"t be so hard on your self dear take the time to relax. Your dad and I were worried you didn"t call last week."
she continued her conversation on the phone while Zander kept quiet as if he wasn"t there.
she felt guilty for lying on her parents but she cannot tell them the truth, she"s sure they would disapproved. and situation goes on without the knowledge of her parents. As the relationship to Zander became serious, so is the relationship to her parents became distant probably because of guilt, or the burst of freedom that she"s away from her parents she is trying on her wings.
Zander on the other hand proved to be decent guy even though he grew up with western culture, he follow the conservative way in which Carah was made to follow. they went out on dates but he tried his best to behave and avoid to place the both of them in a complicated situations. or so they thought.
