187 The Two Of Them 1 (2/2)

Aura learned that Chris was inside the car since when the window lowered, his head popped out, a timid but warm smile was on his face when he handed out a few bills and some food to the old woman. They stared with some amazement crossing their eyes as the old lady bowed and said a few words with him. He responded without the least bit of impatience. And he didn't seem to be acting. This continued until the homeless lady left, heading towards the group of equally homeless children near the swings.

A few minutes passed after Alessa saw the man withdraw his head back. She stared at the closed window for a while before concluding that he must not be planning to get out there anytime soon.

The woman pushed the door opened and then crossed the short distance between her and him.

It didn't take long for her to come back though. When Aura asked what happened, she simply shook her head with a slight smile and told the assistant to not worry anymore and drive home.

Alessa was grateful that the other did not ask further more questions. As for her, she reminisced everything she witnessed on this short trip.

She had seen quite few new faces of the man she was in love with. But what really stuck to her mind was not the warm smile which he gave that homeless grandma, but the harmless and innocent one he was sporting as he slept wrapped up in a thick blanket, his head leaning sideways against the headrest. She saw it all through the small opening a mischievous AI had purposely left without informing him when it noticed the woman's presence nearby.

The actress could already guess that he must be intending to not do any work today as well. The reason for suddenly driving to this fairly populated place instead of his own home was a puzzle for her. However, it was easy to see that he just wanted some sleep today. Even the seemingly all-rounder and powerful him could be exhausted, falling unconscious under a peaceful and picturesque outside world.

Even he could be humane and be like a real human. She made this claim since these past few years, the man worked so efficiently and perfectly that sometimes he just felt so distant to his peers.

Shaking her head, she smiled to the beautiful scenery passing like a fast-paced slideshow.

'I'm going insane already.'

Seconds later, she finally realized why he chose not to go home. The thought caused a small laugh to escape out of her lips.

'Jeez, he's afraid I'll be barging into his penthouse again if he's there.'

'What a bully...'
