Chapter 79 - Will You Write Me A Check? (2/2)
Adam knew he had to drive back, so he only had a glass of wine himself.
After making sure that Stella was sitting comfortably in her seat and that her seat belt was fastened, he put the car into motion after placing the big box on Stella's lap.
When Adam parked the car before the large wooden doors which were kept open, he found the girl deep asleep in the passenger seat.
As if hearing the sound of engine, the old butler came out to greet Adam. No matter how many times Adam had scolded him and asked him not to do it, he just didn't listen to him. Adam had kind of gotten used to it by now.
”Do you need my help with anything?” The old butler asked him.
”You can place this in my room. I will bring her up in a while.” Adam replied passing him the box.
The old butler nodded and left the couple alone.
Adam turned his head to the side to look at his sleeping beauty. His deep gray eyes looking at her, taking in every single detail, etching it in his memories.
He slowly shifted his body closer to her. He placed his arm on the back of her seat. With the other he brushed off the locks of hair covering her face. He placed a soft peck on her forehead as his thumb grazed over her lips. If he could just kiss those delicacies right now. He has been controlling himself throughout the night, he could not do it anymore. But her sleep was more important to him.
”I know one thing for sure now, I am never letting you go babygirl. You are the source of my happiness sweetheart. And I will do anything for you just to keep you happy and smiling.” He murmured softly.
Stella stirred in her sleep, opening her eyes slowly as her eyelids flutter. ”Are we home?” She asked in a sleepy voice.
”Yes we are home.” Adam replied tapping her nose only to get a pout in return.
'Home.' He liked the sound of it.
”Let's get you inside.” He spoke up as he unfastened her seatbelt.
