Chasing After My Wife Chapter 19

"Heh! Eeeehh?" Jillyanna was wide-eyed upon realizing his words. "Don't go that far uncle. It's not funny. I don't want to be in a relationship. There's even this guy who's pursuing me but I am pretty sure he'd give up after two months." Jillyanna murmured while picking up her bag from the couch.
"Why are you giving him two months?" Thomas questioned her since for him, love can't be measured with time.
"That's already the longest time I can give. Most men who tried pursuing me gave up within a month. Nobody reached two months. Am I not giving him a chance? I am so good, right?" Thomas knocked her forehead lightly for her nonsense.
"In any case, you don't have to marry him. I don't have to match make you as well since he found someone he likes." Thomas walked out of the house and Jillyanna was following him.
"Do you want to buy flowers and candles?" Jillyanna asked him after he took a seat and fasten his seatbelt.
"No need. The driver would send some for us later. Let's just go directly to the cemetery." Thomas answered her in which Jillyanna nodded her head.
She drove her car to the cemetery just right in time for the people who went out for few days to come back to the mansion.
Valkyrie sat down on the couch and closed his eyes for a while. Savannah placed her coat on the couch and sat as well with Hawk beside her.
Brown was standing while watching the floor, then the couch. "Nanny Letty?" he called out to the head servant.
"Yes sir. What's the matter?" Nanny Letty came out from the kitchen who was preparing food for them after receiving a message from Travis.
Brown looked at the house once again. He was very sensitive to scent and cleanliness of the house. Even if he's a doctor, who deals with blood and other things, he was very particular when it comes to cleanliness.
"Did someone come while we're out?" Brown asked Nanny Letty. Hawk and the others looked at the woman as well. They needed to be careful whoever made contact to the people inside the house.

"Yes. Master Thomas came yesterday and he left out this morning to visit the cemetery." Nanny Letty answered him.
"I see. Thank you Nanny." Brown responded with a smile but when the woman turned around, his smile vanished.
Hawk stood up and brought him to his room with Savannah and Valkyrie following them. "What is it?" Hawk asked Brown as soon as they got inside.
"Someone was here. It wasn't just Master Thomas. There's a different scent and the floor had marks of something pointed like a high heeled shoes." Brown stated with a serious face.
"We need to let the boss know. Do you think someone knew who we are and made contact with the residents here?" Valkyrie responded with worry.
"Let's not alert the boss yet. Let's put on some cameras when the servants are not around. I'm pretty sure that person would come back." Savannah suggested which everyone agreed.
After they ate their breakfast, when the servants had to go out for groceries, Valkyrie went out with them. Savannah worked on the trees and walls around the house. Brown and Hawk worked inside the house.
At the same time...
Jillyanna arrived at the cemetery with Thomas. She was wearing a huge hat and a dark glasses to cover her face from the sun's rays.
The driver that was sent to bring the flowers looked at her.
"Why are you looking at my little girl?" Thomas inquired which made the driver turned towards him.
"I'm sorry sir. I just thought she's familiar." The old driver scratched his head from embarrassment.
"Of course she's familiar." Then Thomas left him after getting the flowers.
'What did Master mean?' The driver tried thinking hard but he didn't really get his point. He left immediately after sending the flower.
Travis sent out two flowers since he knew his father would visit the other grave as well. If he was the one who sent the flowers that day, he could've seen her. The woman he's been looking for and the woman he's pursuing.
Jillyanna said her piece of gratitude and placed the flowers on her mother's grave.

"Mom, uncle Thomas and I are visiting you and Auntie Venus. And you know what, I was so pissed off with his son! How come he grew up to be so irresponsible? Yesterday, uncle almost had a heart attack because there was no one beside him. Am I being judgemental? Of course I am! I am admitting that. I just don't know what to feel. I can't even vent on him because I don't where he is. RV is just so unfair. Don't you think so?" Jillyanna was once again ranting on her mother's grave.
Thomas on the other hand was just standing in front of his wife's grave. He was speaking to her mentally. Men does that.
After an hour, they left the cemetery since Jillyanna still have to deal with her social media account. She needed to settle some matters.
She sent Thomas back to the mansion but she only dropped him off at the front gate. "Is it alright uncle? I'll have to decline your invitation for lunch. I still have to work." Jillyanna made a sad face while talking to the man beside her.
"Silly girl. It's fine. We can have lunch next time. Be careful on your way home." He rubbed her head which messed up her hair. In that moment, Travis' handsome face showed up in her brain.
Jillyanna smiled while waiting for Thomas to go down. 'What's wrong with my brain cells today? Are you guys hungry? I'll eat peanuts once I get home. Stop flashing me his face.' She was scolding herself for such trivial matter.
When Thomas got down, four people from the house, stretched their neck up and down, side to side, just to get a glance of the person sending the master.
"It's a woman! I knew it!" Brown stated with a straight face.
"Is Travis going to have a stepmom?" Savannah massaged her temple for that reckless thought.
"I think I've seen her somewhere?" Hawk mumbled while trying to think why the woman was familiar.
"Let's go back. He's coming." Valkyrie pulled them back to the living room as if nothing happened.
Thomas got inside the house and found the four of them sitting on the couch. Savannah was flipping through magazines. Hawk and Valkyrie were playing chess and Brown was playing with his phone.
"When did you guys arrive?" Thomas asked them like he was asking his own children. "You weren't here when I came home yesterday."
"We were sent out on a mission uncle." Savannah answered before standing up and giving Thomas a hug.
"Where's the driver? Why did you go out alone?" Hawk asked as if he was the guardian.
Thomas sighed and sat down beside Valkyrie. "You're nagging me just like her."
"Her? Who?" Brown immediately turned his attention towards Thomas.
"My supposed to be daughter-in-law. She was the one who sent me home. If you guys came back earlier, you could've met her. She's really pretty, nice, capable and kind. I wanted her for my son but that man was getting married." It was their turn now to be surprised with Thomas' answer.
"RV is getting married? Why didn't I know of this?" Valkyrie was stunned with the thought.
"Is that why he left the house?" Savannah asked but nobody can answer her.
"This is unbelievable! Who the hell is the girl? Is it the one he had a one-night stand?" Brown mumbled which had them turned their gaze at him.
Thomas was also horrified. "He had a one-night stand?! And he was even planning to marry?! This bastard! I'll make sure to cripple him!" he was so angry to death. Savannah helped him to calm down and brought a glass of water.
One problem led to another giving them a headache and the person involved was still at the company waiting for someone's message.
