I wrapped my hands around Nina and pulled her close to my body just as Mark pulled off the cathedral. I had sent John to drive Nina's car while Mark drove us home.
I had never been this excited in my life than I am now. I'm finally going to introduce her to my two naughty brothers who have refused to come to my wedding because they were not in support of me getting married to Deborah.
I snickered as soon as I mentioned that name in my head, I will do anything to find her even though it means hiring a private investigator. I would do that cause I know it's dangerous that Deborah is still out there.
“ Are you okay?” Nina's voice brought me out of my deep thought, I turned to gaze into her eyes while trying to soften my hardened look. The light from the street light illuminated her face and made it glow in the dimness of the car interior.
I bend to peck her slowly on the lips, savoring the taste of her lips. Gosh! How I've missed them.
Nina raised her eyebrows at me surprised after I had pulled away from her, she smiled gently before smirking at me“ What was that for?” She asked me.
I smiled at her and bent down again to peck her but this time it was on the cheek“ I just couldn't resist you” I replied shrugging. Nina watched me curiously like she couldn't believe me but she let it slide without saying anything afterward…
“So, what were you thinking about so seriously earlier?”Nina repeated her questions to me which I had forgotten in my distraction of her rosy kissable lips.
“ I was just thinking about today,” I told her as she offered me an understanding smile. I shuddered from the thought that I nearly got married to Deborah, what would have happened if Lillian didn't rescue me on time? And Mrs. Melton, who would have ever thought that she would defend Deborah like that, I always thought that they hated each other. I'm gonna take everything that they have from them, I'm so happy that I trusted my instinct and signed the prenup. Now, all the Melton's properties are mine.
“ Where are you taking me?” Nina asked me after some time breaking the silence which had fallen between us as we were both lost in our thoughts.
“ It's a surprise!” I called to her, Nina grunted under her breath but chose not to speak. I scoffed at her as Mark pulled into my Villa. He came over to open the door for me. I got out and turned to open the door for Nina, she smiled at me and turned to stare at my house with surprise written all over her face.
I had relocated from that house ever since Deborah was there and moved into a more spacious house with a wide landscape.
“ Wow!! This is so beautiful and calm” Nina exclaimed in awe. I laughed loudly, I've missed the look of surprise on her face when she sees something she likes.
Nina turned to glare at me before marching off in the direction of the house. I couldn't help laughing at her retreating back, she looks so cute when she's angry.
“ Baby, are you still annoyed with me?” I asked her in the elevator as we were standing side by side at the back while John stood in front of us at alert, he had come in after parking Nina's car in the garage, she wouldn't still talk to me.
Nina ignored me and focused her attention on the tiny keys on the elevator like she was fascinated with them. I was getting frustrated as I didn't know if she was annoyed at me for real or only joking.
“ Please, baby” I apologize once again, pouting up at her. I turned to glare at John who was trying badly to hide the smile on his face.
“ I was only joking. Please, I won't make fun of you again” I said to her but she still wouldn't respond. I felt like punching John, how dare he laugh, when I'm in pain? Isn't he supposed to help me beg her?
Nina marched off in the direction of my door as soon as the elevator dinged without waiting for John to do his security checks.
I paused and was about to tell John to hire a private investigator for Deborah's case when I heard Nina's scream. I ran up the hallway into my room panicking.
“ What is it? Are you alright?” I called frantically at her while searching around for what could have possibly made her scream. I froze as my eyes took in the disheveled state of my house. Emma was busy trying to bring it back to its normal state.
“What's going on here?” I asked Emma, with a cold stare. She knows how much I hate untidiness.
Emma bowed cowardly in front of me, scared of the cold looks in my eyes“ I'm sorry sir, Victor, and Vino were searching for the Playstation earlier, that's why it is like this. I will get to it immediately” Emma apologized softly to me as she got back to what she was doing.
Damn those boys! I can't wait for them to get back to their respective houses. I'm getting tired of their tantrums“ But you should have____”
“ Let it go, Michael, she said she will handle it” Nina cut me off just as I was to scold Emma. I let it go since it wasn't her fault and I've promised myself to do everything for Nina.
I nodded at her and reached out to hold her hands while guiding her to the second sitting room where my two brothers were busy playing Xbox on my television and arguing among themselves.
“ Hey, big bro! Happy married life to you” Victor called to me as he threw a handful of popcorn into his mouth and munched on it loudly without looking at me. He turned to glare at Vino who has cheated his way out of the bondage Victor has put his gaming character in.
“ Are you really married for real? Gosh! I hate that bitch!” Vino asked me, swearing in between teeth without taking his eyes off the game. He and Victor were dragging the crown, I couldn't help shaking my head at them.
