Chapter 59
Chapter 59
The scene of Chester and Bryan’s argument kept playing on Serene’s head. It should not bother her
since it’s their problem and not hers. But perhaps because she empathized with Bryan, that was why
Chester’s harsh words declaring he wanted a divorce rang in her head. She felt Bryan’s pain as if it
were Justin who wanted to break up with her.
She tried painting to divert her attention, but it did not help her at all. Putting her brush aside, she
looked at the clock on the wall. It’s just after ten in the morning and she’s already out of ideas on how
to keep herself busy.
She called Justin’s secretary to check on his schedule and decided to bring Justin’s lunch to the office.
After confirming that he had no engagements during lunch time, she informed his secretary that she
would be coming but wanted it to be a surprise.
She went down the kitchen to quickly prepare his food then when everything was ready, she had a
quick shower. In no time, she’s already in the car with Justin’s chauffeur driving her to Rain
International.
At exactly noon time, she stood in front of Justin’s office, giving the door a gentle knock. “Come in,” his
authoritative voice commanded.
She had already closed the door behind her, but Justin kept his head down, signing documents. “What
is it?” he asked emotionlessly and did not bother lifting his head.
Serene felt chills run down her spine from the treatment she got. Is this what his subordinates deal with
every day? An emotionless Justin who only knew how to bark orders?
With trembling knees, she walked forward. She cleared her throat and said, “I brought you lunch.” Her
voice faltered as she second guessed her decision to go to his office unannounced.
Justin snapped his head at the sound of her voice. He furrowed his brows, trying to decipher if the
person who stood in front of him was indeed Serene or was merely a hallucination his hunger caused.
He saw him bite her bottom lip as she looked at him looking like a scared rabbit.
She’s his Serene, alright. Who else could elicit an erection from him just from biting her lower lip. “Kitty,
what brought you here?” he said, grinning at her.
She walked up to him. This time feeling relieved and relaxed after seeing him smile. Her surprise visit
did not anger him at all. He gestured for her to come over, which she obeyed. He sat her on his lap
when she stopped in front of him, then immediately capturing her mouth with his lips.
They were both breathless when he released her. “Why are you here, Kitty?” he affectionately asked
while tracing her bottom lip, which was now plump from his kisses.
“I have nothing to do at home, so I brought you lunch,” she explained, then shifted her position from his
lap.
Justin’s eyes squinted from her action. “Which is lunch, this…” he said, touching the lunch bag on top
of his desk. “or this?” he added, reaching above the hem of her dress and feeling her from the material
of her underwear. Serene face flushed from his insinuation and from the sudden heat she felt from his
action.
She bolted up and fixed her dress. “Justin!” she looked at him, feigning exasperation. He just laughed
at her and brought her back on his lap. He buried his face in her neck and gave her a gentle bite. She
gasped from both the pain and pleasure.
“Your... lunch… will get cold,” she struggled to say as his hands wandered on her body.
“OK.” he said then got up from his seat lifting her up with him. She let out a scream, but he immediately
hushed her.
They filled the private lounge in his office with their moans and grunts as Justin had his dessert first
before his entrée.
After a while, Justin happily ate the lunch Serene prepared while she glared at him as she chewed her
food. Justin just chuckled at her as he licked his lips after he finished his meal.
“That’s the best lunch ever, Kitty,” he said, winking at her.
Serene rolled her eyes at him while she wiped her mouth with a tissue. He gave her a chesty laugh
before he pulled her closer to him and pecked on her lips. “I love more of this in the future.”
As she was getting up, they heard a sound of a knock come from the door, then Chester came in. He
gave her a quick nod before walking towards Justin’s desk. Justin followed his twin, leaving her.
Serene put on her earphones and played a game to avoid listening to their conversation. Whatever that
was, she did not want to know it. She had not been sleeping well lately because she inadvertently
heard Chester’s argument with Bryan. She did not want to hear something she shouldn’t be again.
She felt a gentle tap on her shoulder just as her character leveled up. Looking up, she saw Chester
looking down at her. She smiled. “I’ll get going,” he said.
Serene smiled at him and got up. “Let’s head out together?” she asked Chester, whose eyes widened
in surprise but nodded, anyway.
Justin was just behind his brother, so he heard her as well. Serene tiptoed to kiss Justin’s lips and said
goodbye to him. He looked at her and Chester leave his office before busying himself with the
documents piled up on his desk.
“Chester, do you have time?” Serene asked him tentatively. He nodded, but his frown creased his
forehead.
“There’s a coffee shop right across this building, is it ok if we head there?” Once again, he nodded to
her question but said nothing.
In the coffee shop, Serene ordered a latte while Chester had a cappuccino. Both sat quietly. She, trying
to find courage to talk to the pensive man before her. He, trying to figure out what this unexpected
meeting was about.
Hers and Chester’s interactions would somehow always end up intensely. She recalled the time they
went to a restaurant, and they have asked her to be an egg donor. She was furious at them. Then,
there was the infamous lunch where Dylan showed a necktie she had painted when she and Bryan
were still a couple. Inadvertently, the words painted on the tie were the words he used for his vows
angering Chester and the two walked out of the middle of their lunch date.
She sipped on her latte, and looked at the man opposite her, racking her brain for the right words to
say.
