Chapter 278 - Secret Affair (1/2)

In the end, Tyler stayed in bed playing mobile games on his phone. He was up late last night working on a few things and today was his day off. After his brother have been trying so hard to climb up in ranks, Tyler had been laid back.

He was in the middle of a game when his doorbell rung. He ignored it until it got spammed. He grunted, tossed away his phone, and got up from the bed.

He walked over to the door and looked out the peephole.

Tyler immediately stepped back in shock and then looked into the peephole one more time.

”I know you're there. I can hear your footsteps.” Lena shouted.

Tyler rubbed his eyes and then looked at the peephole for the third time. He saw Lena outside his room, holding a bag of what looked like food.

He was just lying about the dinner date... but she's here not and he won't let that chance go.

He looked pushed his hair back, put his hand over his mouth and breathed.

'Ugh...' His breath smells. He didn't even brush his teeth yet. And he's shirtless.

”Uh... one minute okay?” Tyler yelled out.

Lena just rolled his eyes. 'Patience Lena... patience.'

One minute turned into 5 minutes before the door was finally open. Lena looked at Tyler. His hair was combed but he was still shirtless.

”Do you go to dinner dates shirtless?” Lena looked at him confusingly.

”I end up shirtless at dinner dates.”

”....” Lena walked in and put the food down on the table. ”One time only. It's not a date. And I get to keep Mr. Hu until I say I don't need him anymore.”

”Ok.” Tyler immediately. He already said he would give him to her for free but she is here now, so that would just be a plus.

He blushed slightly looking at Lena set the table. She said it was not a date... but she event for some candles. ”You look pretty....”

Lena stopped setting the table and looked at the foolishly in love boy. ”By the way, I was never here. And if Kris hears a word about this, I am definitely not going to look pretty.”

Tyler nodded. ”What would you do exactly... if Kris finds out?”

”You are never going to have kids.” Lena threatened him.

”What if he hurt you?” Tyler said out of concern. Tyler knew that Kris was an impulsive and dangerous man. Sure he might get beat up or possibly killed by Kris if he found out that Tyler was doing things with Lena... But he can handle a man like Kris. However, Lena can't.

”Kris? He had never h----” Lena stopped. She was going to say 'He had never hurt me before...' But that wasn't true. Their relationship didn't exactly start out pretty and smooth. She cleared her throat. ”He will never hurt me.”

Tyler walked over to the table and sat on the chair. Lena finished opening the take out food she got and sat on the chair opposite of him. She made sure to also light the candles. Although it was not dark, the candle was just for decoration.

”Why are you even dating him?” Tyler asked, diving down to eat the food first.

”Hmmm? Why? Should I be dating you instead?” Lena ate too.

”You'll only be hurt if you are with him. Kris is not a good man.” Tyler expressed his opinion. ”And I am not saying this just because I like you, I just think that no woman deserves a man like him. He's not one who can truly love someone. He's too dangerous.”

”So am I.” Lena glanced at Tyler and then continue eating.

”No, you're a good person.”

”And that's why I am not dating you. You only see me because you think I am good. What happens when I am not good? If I am good, why am I sneaking around eating lunch with you for a favor behind my boyfriend's back?”

”....”

”And... I like dangerous. It's so sexy.” Lena grabbed the napkin and wiped her mouth.

Tyler continued to eat as he stared at Lena. Why did he have to like a woman who was with someone else?

”I'll keep trying until you get married,” Tyler announced. ”You're not truly his until you are legally married. I won't chase after a married woman. Just you wait, you'll see that I am comparable to Kris, and maybe even better. I just haven't been motivated yet, but you... you motivate me.”

Lena was the first woman to ever moved his heart. She was blunt, stubborn, cute, and someone who does things the way she likes it. Lena is the one... there is just something so strong and attractive about her. He was not going to let her go without a fight.

”I see.” Lena smiled. ”Good luck.”

”By the way.... how did you even find me?” Tyler asked. He was not staying at the same hotel as last time. And first of all, how did Lena even know he was in City A today?

”I have my ways, and I have my secrets.”
