Chapter 74 - Lost Control (1/2)
Felix knew she would try to get closer to Luca Tybelg again. Although he didn't know who she is, he had pledged to find the woman who was responsible for molesting his boss. He wanted to tell her to stay away from Luca Tybelg because there is no other woman who can stay by his side.
He will do all he could to suppress her from getting closer to her aim. Even now, the matter on hand still not within his grasp but he will grasp it and won't let it go.
Luca glanced back at him with wrinkled brows, ”What do mean by that?” He asked, getting uneasy.
He leaned back on the seat, looking troubled. He was hesitant to voice out his problem. He was worried if Felix would do something beyond human comprehension.
He glanced again at Felix, ”Okay, you got me. I was restless you know.” He spilt the bean at last.
Felix looked at Luca's troubled expression through the mirror, ”I can see that.” He acknowledged in a soft tone.
Luca exhaled a deep breath and closed his eyes, ”Felix, keep this matter between you and me. I don't want anyone else to know especially Jennet and my mom. They are innocent.”
”You have my word,” Felix replied back and steered the car with ease on the road.
Meanwhile, Jennet sneezed non-stop inside her hotel room. It was such a hassle to stop herself from sneezing out loud.
'Who had been talking behind my back?' She muttered in her head while pinching her nose hard.
Marvina appeared from the bathroom, all freshened-up and was already in her pyjama. They had just returned after having a quick dinner at the restaurant.
She saw Jennet holding a hairdryer by the dressing table. Suddenly, she thought of something, ”We must put on a face mask to look beautiful upon waking up tomorrow.” She said and immediately rummaged through her suitcase.
Shortly after that, she held a few packets of face beauty face masks in her hands, ”Ta-da, the ultimate mask which can return our youthfulness over the night.” She said with pride.
Jennet placed the hairdryer on the table and glanced at her. ”I'll pass. I'm a rough sleeper.”
Marvina shook her head and said, ”No, no, no, don't worry. I'll make a barrier around you using pillows. It will keep you in place.”
”I can't decline?”
”Of course. I want the two of us to be in our tip-top appearance, more tip-top than that Mira.”
”She's a natural beauty and we're not.”
”Shush, my friend. I've seen your partner and you're a match made in heaven. Mira couldn't hold any candle by his side. So, you must have high confidence in your own ability.”
”I never have any confidence to fight Mira in the first place,” Jennet answered flatly.
”Heh? What are you talking about? Just show off your dear husband to them and they will wave the white flag.”
”No thanks, I never want to show him to the world either.”
”You're hogging him all to yourself now?” Marvina made a face at her.
”Well, yes. I'm a greedy person when it comes to love, just so you know. I don't want or wish to share my affection with anyone but him.” Jennet replied again with a proud looking face.
Marvina snickered at her. There was a naughty grin over her face. She pulled Jennet to the bed and sat down.
”Let's have a long talk among women.” She said and pushed a pillow against Jennet's chest.
Jennet held the pillow and shook her head, ”No, Marvina. I want to sleep. No gossiping tonight.” She said, declining the invitation.
A few hours ago they had arrived in the country and was greeted by Felix who monitored them while doing the check-in. All of them are already too tired over the long hour in the flight.
”Oh, come on!” Marvina groaned and tugged on her pyjama, urging her to agree no matter what.
Still, Jennet shook her head, ”We need to sleep because tomorrow, we have to wake up early for our first tour.” She was firm with her answer.
Marvina clicked her tongue, ”Tch... You're no fun at all.” She said, pulling a sour face at her.
”We can talk on our last day here,” Jennet said and it made Marvina frowned even unhappily at her. But her friend didn't fight back.
”Fine, but you have to put on this face mask!” Marvina held the mask in her hands. ”You have to follow my lead and no objections.” She added while rolling her eyes towards her, giving her no space to object.
”Marvina...” Jennet sighed hard.
”Shush, lie down now so I can apply this mask on your face!” Marvina added and moved closer with the face masks.

It was already midnight in Country N. But lives still go on no matter how late the night had been.
Luca was sleeping soundly in his room. Meanwhile, on the other bed in the same room, Felix was also sleeping soundly.
The two men shared a room after the weird situation they're in for the past day. To make sure that no one will do the second 'kidnapping', they agreed to stay together and to keep watch for the mysterious woman from sneaking into the room because Felix believes, she would try to do the same thing again.
The spacious and luxurious room was in total silence. Both men weren't aware of the uninvited visitor coming for a visit later that night.
Another minute passed and a figure suddenly reappeared beside Felix's bed. The figure was the same woman who had been 'playing' with Luca Tybelg a few days ago. She was adorned in a light blue robe that swept the floor as she moved.
She stared at Felix's sleeping face and chuckled softly. Her slender fingers caressed the sleeping face before her.
So, this soul had actually tried to catch her? Not so easy. No one can catch her until she gets what she wants.
'Poor soul... You're so tired. Let me reward you with a night of sleep, so deep like never before.' She whispered and kissed his forehead.
Felix's brows knitted when she landed a soft kiss on his forehead but it disappeared shortly after that. He fell into a sleep that was so deep and from the look on his relaxed face, he won't be awakened so easily.
Then, the beautiful woman gazed upon Luca who was sleeping on the opposite bed, tucked in nicely under the comforter. She appeared beside his bed and stole a kiss from his lips.
Slightly parting their lips, she smiled alone, ”Restless of getting to know me?” She chuckled. She could feel his soul was restless and his mind was all fuzzy because of the incident that happened a few days ago.
”You're so adorable...” Her smiles widen and she climbed his bed with ease without making any sound.
