Chapter 104

KAILEEN ANDY LEWIS

I stepped out of my office for a second and requested two mugs of black coffee one evening at the restaurant.

I sat back to my seat with piles of paper on the table for me to work on but set them aside as I got interrupted by the sudden visit of my 'dear' brother.

"Why are you always visiting me unannounced?" I whined like a child.

Kevin just let a small laugh as he wandered around the little space of my office.

"Don't you miss me?"

I rolled my eyes, "Duh… we meet once every week."

He laughed again.

"Dad wants you to come over for dinner on Friday..."

"We've got visitor."

I knitted my brows then leaned back to my chair.

"And who might that be?" I asked curiously.

He shrugged, "Dad didn't tell me."

"He just said a close friend of ours from whichever country."

I just nodded then the door flung open and Claire came in carrying two mugs of coffee.

She gave a faint smile to my brother before laying down the mugs on the coffee table.

"Thank you Claire but you don't have to do this."

"I asked Lynda for this." I said sounding shy.

"Nah, I was on my way in here anyway, " she smiled.

I gave her a smile back. Well, nothing I could do anymore but to sip the coffee she brought.

Then Kevin cleared his throat seeking for attention.

"Won't you introduce me to your beautiful friend here?" He asked me while checking out Claire.

"Oh, beautiful is even an understatement," he added.

'wow'

Not to brag but Kevin delivered that smoothly hinting a flirtatious tone and he sounded cool with it.

Then Claire chuckled, her eyes flickered. I saw her bit the inside of her cheek too then elegantly turned to take a proper look of my brother.

"Flirting are we?" She said sounding damn sexy as she slowly walked towards my brother.

And—

'damn'

She took every stride looking seductive; flirtatious, intentionally swaying her hips more than necessary in her every step.

My brother chuckled at the view curving his dimpled smile.

"I'm not flirting, " he said.

"I'm just 'extra' friendly to someone 'extra' attractive," he stressed out the word 'extra'.

'damn'

My jaw literally dropped on the floor.

'Is this how adult flirt?'

'... or am I just too inexperienced?'

'well— whatever'

Then Claire stopped half a ruler away from Kevin.

A smirked formed in her lips.

The next thing happened was something I didn't expect.

She gently placed her hand on my brother's chest while the other went up to his neck. Then down, squeezing his shoulder lightly. She then trailed a finger down to his chest, applying pressure enough to be felt above the extra layer of fabric he's wearing.

I gripped the pen I was holding harder every second and I could tell that Kevin was holding his breath in as Claire continued to tease him.

"Don't ask me what I'm doing," Claire said sounding so damn flirty.

"You know I'm just being cute here."

'wow'

I was so sure, I saw Kevin just gulped a lump in his throat right there.

Claire's trailing stopped at his stomach then she playfully drew circles there.

She then tiptoed and leaned in to whisper something on my brother's ear but still audible enough at my distance.

"All talk and no bite, are we?"

'damn'

She smirked, pulled away then twirled around in her heels before reaching the door and stopped again—

Holding the knob she turned her gaze back to Kevin, "Right, who are you again?"

'Oh my shit'

My 'dear' brother seemed like… he swallowed his tongue down to his belly. He just stood there muted which earned a fits of laughter from Claire.

'gosh'

'I'm so embarrass'

I answered for him, "Meet Kevin, my brother."

I groaned inwardly then she gasped.

She covered her mouth as she gasped in disbelief shifting her gaze from Kevin and me.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry," she exhilarated.

I could tell in her expression that if she knew the man was my brother, she won't do any of what she did a while ago.

I just forced a smile.

To be honest, I was really feeling embarrass at the same time feeling pitiful for my brother.

I fairly knew Claire by now. I experienced her flirting first hand.

She's sly but—

… she has a good heart.

Just that my brother wasn't prepared enough to what came his way just now.

Hence, he fell considerably.

'Oh my brother'

'tsk'

'tsk'
