Chapter 153 - Dinner with Andy (1/2)

That night, Lena stayed another day longer at work so she could just head out to dinner with Andy later on. When it was close to the time, Lena drove herself to the restaurant. It was just a casual restaurant.

Andy was already sitting at the table. Lena smiled and sat at the table.

”Food first. Just in case you decide to go back on your words.” Lena spoke.

Andy laughed at her. He had a rough day, and he hoped that Lena would cause him more headaches. Andy already ordered for both of them. He had to eat with Lena for a long time now so he knew what she liked and what she does not like.

As the food comes and Lena enjoyed the meal, she could tell that Andy was not having a good day. A rough patch in a relationship always is an emotional rollercoaster. Lena hoped that she will never go through such a painful experience again.

Seeing that Andy was not in the mood to eat, Lena finished up her food and told the waitress to pack the rest.

”You could eat here, you know. I can wait.” Andy spoke.

”It's fine. We are both here for the information, not the food anyway.” Lena pulled out a file and handed to Andy. ”That is the files on the two girls who are planning to sue your artist for sexual harassment and bribery. I already got in contact with them both and was able to make a deal with them.”

”That fast?” Andy was surprised. Last time, Lena took a week.

”This was an emergency so I pulled some strings. But anyway, you just need to send them the proper compensation, and they will retract the accusation and even go online to say that they lied.”

”Thanks.”

”Next..” Lena handed another file to Andy but her hand still covered the folder. ”This is the lab results on the pill and what it does. Sides effects and everything you need to know about it.” Lena paused and slowly removed her hand from the top of the folder. ”Andy... it's not good news.”

Andy took the folder and was not hesitant to open it. He has been hesitant all day, but this one he needed to see what it was.

The first word that caught his eye was that it was categorized as an ”Aprodasiac Drug.” Andy already knew that that drug was but he looked at the effect and side effects. His eyes turned sad then dark. Eva was supposed to be different from Lena.

Andy skimmed through the file and closed it after he was done. ”Did you use this one on me before?”

”This exact type? No. I am not stupid to use something that is not sold in the open market.” Lena had to give her old self some credit. She was desperate but she did not use something that she was not 100% sure it would work.

Andy chuckled. ”It's funny. In most relationships, it is the man who cannot wait, but here I am, stuck in two relationships where it is the other way around.” He put a hand on his head and ruffled his hair. ”Is it so wrong to want to wait?”

Lena grabbed his hand so he would stop being frustrated. ”No.” She grabbed his other hand. ”If the person you love really loves you back... they would wait for an eternity. I realized that my love for you was real... but not a love for eternity. If you really think that Eva's love is for eternity, just talk to Eva again, maybe you both can come up with a compromise.”

Lena let go of his hand. She went to grab something out of her bag. it was a long rectangle box. It looked like a box for an expensive pen. Lena handed to him.

”But just in case, that is the antidote. You can take it before or after. It will be effective for 24 hours.”

Andy opened the container and there was a small syringe. ”How did you even get this?”

”I can't tell you that. I can't give you all the answers right now anyway. You just have to trust me on this.” Lena looked straight into Andy's eyes. ”I have never lied to you before, I won't start now. There are many things that you don't know. But... if it does come the time that you do need to use the antidote, you can call for me again. I will give you the answer to that question.”
