Chapter 229: What...

The next day arrived quite slowly, and Adrik, who had cleaned Leia up and changed her clothing, laid her down on the bed and proceeded to have his shower.

He stepped out after a few minutes and dressed himself up in casual white pants and a white polo, then gave his hair a little bit of brushing, messily tying it up afterward.

Today he had a meeting to attend as well as a company contract to sign, but he canceled all that because there was absolutely no way that he would leave his little wife to attend a meeting. 

A low breath exited his nose as he stared at the unconscious Leia on the bed, and gently, he moved to lie down beside her. Honestly, he has no appetite to eat, which is why he is not even bothering to go downstairs for his breakfast or order it here in the room. 

A half-pessimistic smile emerged on his face, and he plugged his AirPods into his ears, then turned to wrap his arms around her, cuddling her tenderly.

{Tuesday, 6:57 p.m.}

Alex, who stood on the balcony of the estate that he had recently bought, pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed Rita's number.

[Hey....] Rita picked up instantly and her voice sounded so awkward as she and Alex had not communicated quite much before.

"Hey, how are you?" Alex asked, with a friendly smile on his face.

[Pretty good, thank you. How about you?]

"I am good. I called you concerning the plan. I want you to delay it as much as possible." He said, in a very downcast tone.

[Huh? But Luna-]

"She's not in good condition right now, so please impede the plan as much as possible till she's stable." He cut her off before she could finish her sentence and calmly explained it to her.

[Not in good condition. What do you mean by that? Did something happen?] She inquired in a tone that held concern.

Alex's eyes fluttered, and he cleared his throat. "Well... she got into some kind of accident, so..." He clarified, and Rita stayed silent for a few seconds before finally nodding and assuring him that she would delay it as much as she could.

"Thank you." Alex smiled and cut the call, then dropped the phone on the mini table near the white sofa on the balcony. He stuffed his hand into the pocket of his pants and used his other hand to brush back his blonde hair, then raised his eyes to glance up at the sky, which was already getting dark. A low sigh fled his nose, and he slightly shook his head.

A deep breath exited Selena's nose as she stared at herself through the mirror, and a slight smile ensued on her face. She admired the red body-hug dress she wore, which had a diamond accessory embedded on its side. She glanced at the golden necklace around her neck, which matched the sleeveless dress perfectly, and slowly nodded her head.

Her smile widened and she gently patted her shoulder-length fiery red hair, which was tied up into a classic bun. She nodded in satisfaction after admiring herself, then finished everything up by clasping a golden bracelet around her slender wrist, then picked up her purse and walked out of the room.

She shut the door behind her and walked into the living room to find Victor, who was clad in a white shirt and suit pants, staring out of the huge glass window. Her brow creased in bewilderment, and she walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder. "What are you thinking? You seem a bit lost." She inquired with a smile on her lips, and Victor turned to look at her.

He examined her from head to toe, and a slow smile emerged on his face. "You look so gorgeous... You look beautiful." He eyed her and leaned in to place a soft kiss on her lips. 

Selena smiled against his lips and pulled him into a tight hug before interlocking her arms with his, and together they walked out of the apartment.

They moved downstairs using the elevator and stepped outside after the door was pushed open. 

Selena's eyes fluttered in confusion as he led her towards a Ferrari parked outside. "I have never seen this here before." She turned to him with a bewildered look on her face, and Victor chuckled softly. "I got it last year from my dad, and I haven't really used it." He bit his lower lip and used his hand to brush back his mixed-colored hair. The silver-colored earring clasped in his right ear dangled and he moved to pull the door open for her. 

"Thank you." Selena smiled at him and stepped into the car, then he moved to take his seat in the driver's chair. He started the car engine and, smoothly, he drove out of the compound and onto the road.

The sky got darker and darker as they drove, and finally, when it seemed like they had arrived at their destination, Victor slowed down the car and pulled over into a secluded area, then parked the car and turned off its engine. 

He stepped down and walked over to pull the door open, then reached out his hand for her.

Selena took his hand and, unhurriedly, he led her towards a white canopy that was decorated with luminous lights and flowers. 

He pulled out the chair for her and she sat down, then he moved to sit down opposite her. 

"This place is beautiful." She smiled as she glanced around, and Victor fixed his gaze on her as he couldn't seem to take his eyes off her. "You're so beautiful." He complimented her yet again, and Selena found herself giggling like a child. 

A few seconds passed, and the chefs arrived with the food, professionally arranging it on the table. They took their leave when they were done, and Victor nodded at Selena, telling her to dig in. 

She placed a napkin around her neck and examined the food. Classically, she ate the food, and Victor couldn't help but find himself staring at her.

Noticing his intent gaze on her, she lifted her eyes to look at him. "What...."
