《Undeniable Attraction ✓》•Chapter 20•

Today was a Saturday which I was so grateful for. Since I started working with Kel over a month now I woke up early and slept late and it has been taking a toll on me. Kel and I only talked when there was need to. He was really professional in the office, no one will even guess that we knew each other much less married.
I got out of bed and did every thing I needed to do. I wore a big blue shirt and sweatpants. I really liked big things because it's just so comfy. No pun intended. The clothes were way better than the ones I had been wearing to work. I had organised a vacation for my parents and they'd be leaving today. It was more of a thank you for coming to the wedding and for taking care of me thing. I know how much I've stressed my parents over the years and how they've been helpful so I planned a one month vacation for them in a resort, at least they could have some time for themselves doing what they want not taking care of me or Evie.
I was so excited for Evie to be with me, I'd have someone to talk to in this lonely house. I knocked on Kel's door to ask him what he wanted for breakfast but there was no reply so I just went down to the kitchen to make what I wanted to eat.
He strode into the kitchen shirtless with a bottle in his hands taking a gulp of water, his Adam apple gobbled and I just watched him for a while. It was a pretty good sight if I may say.
"Good morning." I took my eyes away from him before he commented on me drooling over him.
He raised his eyebrows at me. We barely talked and me initiating this conversation was because I wanted to ask something of him which he was probably guessing.
"Do you want something West?" he asked dropping the bottle on the counter and sitting on a stool in front of me.
"Actually I'd need a ride to my parent's house and I was hoping Evie could stay here since my parents would be on a vacation for a while." I pleaded.
"No, no one's coming to my house and you're not going anywhere." he replied staring right at me. Why was he being plain wicked?
"Please, she won't be a bother to you I'd make sure of that, you don't have to spare a room we'd share, please? "
"Get me breakfast West" and that was how he dismissed it.
I stared at him giving him my angriest glare. I was still bringing her whether he agreed or not.
"As you wish your majesty." I sarcastically said placing the food in front of him.
After having breakfast I went upstairs to get my things. I was going to sneak out. I grabbed my phone and purse then went downstairs only for me to see Kel. BUSTED

"And where do you think you're going West?" he asked not even removing his gaze from the TV. I'm pretty sure I tip toed my way down so it must have been the TV that exposed me.
I was wondering if I should lie but he knew where I was going to already.
"I asked you a question West?" his shout startled me and I shook a little.
"Well you already know where I'm going to." I replied making my way to the door.
"And what did I tell you West?" he coldly asked
"Not to go but too bad you don't control my legs Adrios."
"But I know how to make you unable to walk for a while West." he was very close to me before I knew it. His lips grazing my ears as he spoke and I felt a familiar tingles run through me, was it possible to crave someone you hated?
"Knocking me with your car Adrios?" I asked acting like I didn't get his innuendo
He said nothing and just chuckled walking out of the door and I followed, was he going to drive me?
"Buckle your seat belt West." he instructed as we entered the car and I smiled.
"Thank you." I smiled saying although he acted as if he didn't hear.
We got to my parent's house and they opened the door with a smile this time. Evie ran to meet me and I engulfed her in a hug.
"I missed you." We said together and laughed but there was a frown on her face when she saw Kel.
"What's he doing here? "she demanded looking from me to him.
"Now Evie you'd be a good girl when you're staying with them right?" my mum asked or rather warned.
"Yes. I'd be a good girl." she promised going to hug my mom
"Good afternoon Sir, good afternoon ma'am. " Kel greeted and they replied nicely this time.
"I hope you've been taking good care of my daughter? " dad asked.
"Of course Sir, isn't that right mi amour?" he asked lacing my hands in his drawing small circles on them.
"Yes. Kel's the best." I said smiling. He was only the best at annoying, stressing and frustrating me.
"Good. Because I'd hate to hear otherwise." my mom chirped in glaring at him.
Well I wasn't expecting them to have forgiven him, I mean I haven't.
"You guys have to leave now to catch the flight." I reminded
"I'd miss you both." my mom said hugging Evie and I and soon after dad joined in.
"Take care of yourselves okay." mom said waving, she had a little tears running down her eyes. Oh mom.
I walked up to her, she was at the porch with my dad while Kel and Evie were inside.
"There's no need to cry. You guys are going to have fun. We'd be alright, we can take care of ourselves. " I said hugging her.

"I know it's just... Did you tell him? " she asked
"No, I don't plan on telling him anything." I stubbornly said
"Well nothing stays hidden forever." mom said and it took me to the secret I was keeping from them, I smiled weakly.
They got into the cab and we left after. When we got home Evie was excited, I was too.
"Are you hungry? Should we go up to our room? " I asked
"She can get her own room if she wants to. " Kel spoke up
"No thank you. " the way she replied was rude and I noticed the way he looked at her.
"Evie don't be rude. He's just trying to be nice okay." I said and she nodded.
"Your house is beautiful." she said staring in awe.
"It's not my house Evie, it's his." I corrected and she scoffed.
"Your house isn't beautiful mister." she said sticking her tongue out at him and he chuckled.
Kel Adrios just chuckled, he chuckled and it's because of Evie?
"Thank you Evie, I appreciate your compliment." he said smiling
"It's not a compliment and don't smile at me, I don't like you. " she whined and he laughed.
"Evie it's not nice to say you don't like a person." I warned and she nodded.
The bell rang and in came Carlos, I hated the guy way more than I hated Kel and I did hate Kel a lot.
"Hey bro." he greeted Kel and they did their special handshake. I looked away from him not wanting to exchange unnecessary pleasantries.
"You didn't tell me you were coming." Kel said, obviously surprised by the visit.
"Just decided to drop by. Do you have any food I'm starving."
"Why didn't you drop by at the restaurant then? " Evie asked
"And who is this little thing?" he questioned rudely.
"None of your business Carlos." I retorted glaring at him.
"Carlos, just go take your seat." he dismissed. "Shayan cook up something for him." he ordered.
"But she's not a maid." Evie whined
"Evie it's fine." I said pulling her to the kitchen.
We started to cook, she was helping out my bringing ingredients to me. Kel and Carlos were talking in the sitting room, I could hear bits and pieces to know they were talking about me. I had finished cooking and went to set the table and then returned to place the food on the table.
"You should join us." Kel requested and I sat.
We began to eat in silence and all the while Evie had a weird smile on her face and when Carlos started coughing I knew she did something.
"This... " he exclaimed drinking water and Evie started laughing
"There's ... a ...lot ....of ....pepper. " he screamed drinking water
"But there's no pepper in mine." Kel said looking at me questioningly
Evie giggled looking at me and I couldn't help but laugh a bit, he was using his hands to fan his mouth.
"I'm sure they must be the one. " he accused even pointing a finger at us and Kel raised his eyebrows.
"It must be this little brat. " he shouted pointing at Evie his eyes already red.
"She's not a brat Carlos don't call her one. I won't have you talking crap." I angrily said
" See what happens when you don't train a child well, they become nuisance and cause trouble. She needs to be shipped to a boarding or disciplinary school."
"I'm not going anywhere." Evie stated
"Evie did you put pepper in his food? " Kel questioned
"I did." she replied honestly and Kel asked her why. "I don't like him."
"Please don't do that next time it's not nice. " Kel said. "Now apologise."
"I'm not going to." she stubbornly said folding her hands. "I'm not sorry. "
I seriously had to work on her attitude. Kel looked at me hoping for me to talk to her or how bad her attitude was comparing it to mine.
"Well I don't need your stupid apology bítch . I don't even know what they're doing here but they don't deserve to be here. What a family of nuisance."
"Mind your language Carl, she's a child for god's sake." Kel shouted angrily.
"Oh, I see what you're doing you slût, you're trying to ruin our friendship but it's not going to work. Kel beware of this demon that comes with a pretty face."
"Out of my house Carlos." Kel ordered angrily
"You've not seen the last of me." he angrily said storming off.
"You're no longer hungry?" Evie asked laughing as he left.
Kel turned to look at us anger evident in his structures.
"And what was that all about? " he demanded angrily " That's not a way to treat guests and I won't have you treating people like that. I won't condone this behaviour in my house. You need to be taught how to behave but what can I expect, you're related to Shayan." he angrily said leaving
"Was it that bad?" she asked and I nodded
"It was really bad, please don't do that again okay" I warned and she frowned.
"But he was rude to you." she complained.
"It doesn't matter okay. I appreciate you wanting to help me but you don't do that to people okay. "
"OK. I'm sorry." she apologised gently
"It's OK sweetie."
"Kel is scary, does he shout at you like that? "
"Well I don't go around putting pepper in people's food. " I laughed saying and she joined.
