The Last Embrace Chapter 114
Advertisement
When they teleported into the condo unit nobody is home. They check the living room and the two rooms, no one is inside the unit. No one is home.
The Queen was in deep thought wondering where his son could be at this hour, but since her son is a model he could be working somewhere around the city doing a photoshoot with his colleagues.
"Looks like...they were not home yet. Adam has a friend named Caden who also lives with him here," the Queen explained.
"I will just wait for them, Mother," Jessy said.
"Okay, that's good! You can watch the TV if you want," the Queen pointed the television in the living room. "Feel yourself at home, there's a fridge in the kitchen if you are hungry," she added.
"Thank you for bringing me here, Mother," said Jessy.
"Don't mention it. I will go back now to the Facility," the Queen said. "One more thing Jessy, no matter what happens don't try to make a big issue about Adam's new look, you have to understand that originally without the curse on his skin, he would grow up to be a handsome young man just like what you see in that poster in that store, that is his true appearance anyway without the curse, he suffered so much because of that cursed skin and his sudden untimely death, please don't make things difficult for him, okay?"
"Yes Mother," Jessy replied just to humor the Queen.
A few seconds later the Queen vanished from the condo unit.
Jessy made a tour inside Adam's dwelling which is spacious enough for two single men. She checked the two rooms for a few minutes, then exited. She went to the kitchen and opened the fridge, there were apples, oranges, and grapes, she took one apple and washed it in the sink...she took a big bite, nice...it's sweet!

She went to the living room and power on the television. She scanned for channels that can give her interesting shows. She settled herself comfortably on the sofa and watch a science fiction movie with two hours running time. After finishing one apple, she went back to the kitchen and opened the fridge, she took some grapes... washed them on the sink and put them on the platter, then she went back to the living room to resume watching the sci-fi movie.
In the middle of watching she felt bored, she paused the movie.
Where are they?
Are they going home tonight?
How long does she have to wait?
She's getting impatient.
She wants to see Adam now!
She went back to the bedroom where she saw Gavin Sander's poster on the wall. That must be Adam's room and the other one was Caden's.
Maybe she should take a closer look at Adam's room.
She entered his room and jumped into his comfy bed. She was lying down on the soft bed and inhaled Adam's scent, it's indeed his room, he might not look the same anymore but his old scent still smells the same.
She buried her face into his pillow. She closed her eyes for a moment and inhaled more of his scent.
Dang! She's getting restless! She will go out of the unit and find Adam all over the city. But where she would start? Maybe she would just sleep while waiting for them to arrive.
Fifteen minutes later, she can't sleep. She didn't come here to sleep though, she's here to see Adam.
She went out of the room and sauntered back to the living room and resumed watching the boring movie.
She roamed her eyes around the condo unit...
Then her eyes landed on the balcony.

She stood up and walked towards it, she opened the glass door and steps into the balcony, there is one table and two chairs in there. The view above is nice. The endless city skyline was adorned with millions of dazzling lights as far as her eyes could see.
The cold wind blows...blowing her long black hair away from her face.
The full moon is bigger and far more beautiful looking tonight.
She looked down below...wow... there's a swimming pool on the ground floor of the building. She saw a group of people in their swimming attire frolicking in the pool, then she saw Adam in the pool beside another guy, that must be Caden, they were surrounded with six beautiful sexy ladies wearing a skimpy swimsuit, they were laughing at one another, having fun.
Jessy bit her lip.
So---he now becomes a ladies man with his good looks, eh? what can she expect? With a handsome and famous face such as his... Gavin will surely have lots of beautiful admirers crowding his universe.
Dang! It looks like he loves the attention...
Grrr!
Ouch! She winces in pain.
She feels jealous all of a sudden.
Her stare must have drilled a hole in his head because Gavin finally raised his eyes towards the balcony of his condominium unit...he saw a woman standing in the balcony!
Their eyes met.
Jessy went back inside in a hurry after meeting Adam's gaze, she doesn't want to see him anymore! It looks like he was already enjoying his life without her.
