233 A nerve-wracking momen (2/2)

”Hello, honey.” A man came in despite her personal assistant tried to stop him from interrupting her.

She mumbled something under her breath and tried to sleep. Just ten minute or fifteen minutes would be enough. She needed to replenish the energy she used nonstop since this morning.

Jason smiled tenderly seeing her fiancée was already drifting to sleep. Poor his baby. She looked so exhausted.

He leaned down to press a kiss against her temple lovingly. Then, he stroked her head.

”My love, I'm here,” he whispered and kissed her on the top of her head.

She mumbled something again.

”I know you are tired but sleeping at the table is not comfortable. Let's go home. It's getting late,” he coaxed gently.

”Hmm… Jason? Love?” Her eyes fluttered open in a drowsy manner and looked at her fiancé in a puzzle. What was he doing here?

”Yes, love. Are you awake now?” he asked, pulling her up onto her feet before slipping his hands behind her knees and her back. Without warning, he picked her up and carried her to the couch.

She automatically laid her head on his broad shoulder and wrapped her arms around his neck. She was still so sleepy!

”Do you want to go home or have dinner first?” he asked.

”I just want to sleep. I'm so tired,” she moaned, even yawning to show how sleepy she was.

He chuckled. After one last kiss and this time on her lips, he stood up with her still in his arms and walked toward the door. She was carried in a princess style but none of them commented upon it.

Those who were still in the office could only watch the couple in a daze. They knew how romantic Jason was toward their witchy boss but seeing him carrying her like a princess and she never once scolded him for it gave a shock to them, all except for her personal assistant. She was too used with the childish side, the crazy side and the romantic side of Mika behind her Gothic Lolita persona.

Stephanie did not mind any of the sides at all except when Mika was in her serious mode. It was scary. Even she was scared when Mika was in her bad mood.

Jason, unaware of what the others thought, carefully brought Mika downstairs to his car. He placed her onto the passenger side carefully, treating her like a precious fragile item. He even helped to pull the safety belt for Mika.

Mika knew in her heart how protective Jason was and believed he would not let anything happened to her, simply continue her sleep. She trusted him to bring her home safely.

Once Jason was satisfied with Mika's position, he went to the driver side and started the engine. He quickly adjusted the temperature, not too hot and not too cold so his love would not suffer during the journey. He then carefully drove the car away. Although he already booked a room for both of them in a very popular restaurant, as Mika did not feel like eating, he would simply cancel it.

Whatever Mika wanted, Mika would get.

And right now what she wanted was to go home to sleep. And that was what Jason would do, bringing her home to sleep.

But which home? It was up to him.

He grinned at his own thought.

As their wedding was getting closer, it was normal for him to bring her to his home. His parents were not at home anyway. They had to go to the other region to get him something for the wedding. He had no idea what it was and too lazy to ask. But he knew it would make Mika happy once she received it.

The car reached the huge mansion. A butler quickly approached the car and accepted the car key from Jason as he welcomed his young master home.

The elder man's eyes widened when his young master, instead of going into the building, went to the other side and took out a sleeping woman.

”Why… it's Young Mistress Si,” the butler choked out. He quickly followed his young master but paused to hand the key to a young man, the family's driver. The driver would then bring the car into the basement.

The butler was grinning from ear to ear. They were so excited about the wedding. Finally, their Young Master would get married to his sweetheart. Since young, they watched the couple grew up together and being in love. And now they would get married. Of course, the whole household would be happy.

”Young master, would you like the cook to prepare dinner for the both of you?” the butler asked politely.

”Maybe something light but keep it until Mika wakes up,” Jason decided. His walking never stopped as he climbed up the stairs, heading toward his bedroom.

No one said anything about Jason bringing Mika into his room even though they were yet to be married.

Jason placed Mika carefully on the bed. He took off her heels and then went to the wardrobe. Half of it was already filled with her clothes. He took about two minutes to decide which nightgown she should wear tonight. He chose the skimpy and sexy red nightdress he bought from the VS. His favourite.

And it took him no time to change her into it, minus the undergarments. Why should she wear ones anyway? Troublesome contraption.

She never woke up during his 'busy work'. She just mumbled something but never opened her eyes.

The butler knocked on the door and politely told him dinner was ready and the cook would reheat them once Young Master and Young Mistress are ready to have dinner. Jason gave his approval and dismissed the older man.

He was too busy staring at his love than doing anything else.

He could not wait for them to get married.

”Ah... I have to take my shower,” he told himself. He did not want to smell bad when she woke up.
