Chapter 45 - Rev (1/2)
Nina was surprised. He wanted her to focus on studying since she would be graduating soon, so he didn't expect Andrew to ask him to come.
”I'll talk to the principal and ask if you could study like Peggy. I'll be your teacher, so don't worry about your lessons.” He said.
She didn't answer. Andrew frowned when he noticed that she was quiet.
”So would you like to come with me? I'm not forcing you, though.” He asked again.
She nodded. ”Yes, I'll come with you. I don't want to be alone. I want to be with you.”
He smiled and kissed her on the forehead.
”Me too. I want to be with you. So rest, for now, we'll leave after two days. This trip would be my engagement gift to you. I'm sorry it's late. But I want to make it up to you. Let's enjoy our trip to England.” He said, then leaned forward to kiss her on the lips.
Andrew went outside and left Nina with her friends. He saw Rev outside of Nina's room, sitting on the chair. He stood up when he saw Andrew walking towards him.
”I believe we met before.” Andrew started.
Rev nodded. ”I am the school counselor.”
Andrew's face became serious. He knew Rev liked his fiancé. He wasn't that naïve to not know when a guy likes a girl.
”I don't mind if Nina has an after-school activity with you. As long as you know your limitations.” He said while looking at Rev's eyes.
Rev stared back at him.
”I know. But if Nina needs me, I will be there for her. And Mr.Cross, I want to remind you that you still have a secret that you are not telling her.”
Andrew frowned. What the hell is he talking about? He thought.
”I am not sure if you don't know, or you're just pretending. Anyway, I like Nina. But I don't have plans to go between you and her. I just want to remind you that I am not going to turn a blind eye if you hurt her.” Rev said before leaving him confused.
”That's the school counselor?” Jayden asked.
When he turned around, Luke and Percy were also there. He sighed and sat down on the bench.
”Yes. Rev has been with Nina ever since I left. He liked her.”
Jayden sat down on his left and Percy on the right while Luke remained standing.
”Is he someone you need to be afraid of? You know, he might steal Nina from you.” Jayden teased.
He glared at him, but he was right. When Alora called and informed him that Rev was the one who brought Nina to the hospital, he suddenly felt inferior. He was supposed to be there for his fiance. He was supposed to be the one who saved her and not some other guy.
Asking Nina to come to Europe with him was a selfish move. He wanted to take her away from Rev because he was afraid that another man would take her. He would not allow that.
