Chapter 325 - One or Ten. (1/2)
Keso gulped and then ran to the driver's seat. Throughout the drive, Lena had her eyes closed and he did not dare make a sound. He did not know if she was asleep or not.
When they arrived at the apartment, Lena opened her eyes and walked out of the car. She went inside the elevator first as Keso grabbed the suitcases. Lena waited in the elevator for him.
The silence was killing him but he made no noises.
They rode up all the way to the penthouse. Lena kicked off her shoes and walked to Kris's room.
”Don't tell him I was awake.” Lena finally spoke before she slammed the door shut.
Keso put the suitcases in the other room. He sat down in the living room and looked at some documents that Kris had given him several days ago.
-------------
Days past since they returned and Lena did not mention at all where Kris was. What she did notice was that his mood was a bit more energetic. She did not know if it was because they were finally telling the elders about their decision to get married, or it was something else.
She still went to work as usual. SHYNE had been preparing for the permanent position of their CEO, but with just the recent plagiarism, it was held back for a few more weeks. It would be drama if Lena was to step down just after that.
Regardless, her position was always only temporary for experience and helping her mother. If she wanted to get married and have lots of kids... she preferred a more convenient job. The good thing about marrying a wealthy man is that you don't have to work.
Lena smiled as the thought of marriage brought a sweet sensation to her heart.
Kris and Lena were meeting with the elders for dinner tonight. James was dropping Lena off at the Li Company so she can go with Kris after his meeting.
Lena held a bag of clothes to change into as she arrived at Kris' office. She nodded at the only worker there as everyone else was at the meeting.
She quickly went inside the office and locked the door. Kris already wears a suit to work... so he didn't need extra time to make himself look good. However, Lena did not dress very formal to work today so she brought a change of clothes.
She changed into her dress and did some final touches to her make-up. Lena walked over to his desk and sat on the tabletop as she stared at his desk. She noticed that Kris had added a few more pictures... of her.
Lena wondered how he even got these? She picked up a picture frame and looked at it. If she recalled correctly... this was taken before they were even dating.
At that moment, Kris and Collin walked in.
Lena put down the picture and glanced up at them. She smiled.
She walked up to Kris and gave him a small kiss. Then she turned to Collin. ”How was the honeymoon?”
”Great.” Colline replied.
”Are we going to expect little Collins in 9 months?” Lena asked.
