LIVING WITH HIM
It’s been two days now since Cora was threatened by Kate, as Cora has been trying to keep Adia safe, but so far so good, there’s been no sign of Kate coming.
While Cora has not heard from Sebastian, maybe he’s gonna let Adia have the whole week to her self as promised, before she finally moves.
“Have some dumplings” Adia served Addison, as they were currently having dinner.
“Who’s at the door?” Cora asked as the door bell rang.
“I’ll go check” Adia volunteered.
“No let me do it” Cora stopped Adia as she rushed to the door to see who it is.
“Evans” Cora muttered welcomed by Evans smiling face.
“Hey Angel”
“What are you doing here”
“To get our bride of course, do you think I came for you?”
“Where’s Sebastian?”
“He’ll be here in a minute” Evans answered as he called for Adia.
“Adia, hello”
Adia walked to the door as she waved at Evans,
“Evans, do come in, we’re having dinner, do join us” Adia offered as Evans smiled while Cora shot him a glare.
“Sure, I’d love to” Evans said sliding into the house as he slipped into a seat in the dining table.
“Good evening” Addison greeted as Evans waved.
“How’re you doing?”
“Am fine” Addison answered.
“Good to know”
“What do you care for?” Adia asked picking up a serving spoon.
“Anything”
“Then I’ll recommend these” Adia said serving some rice together with chicken casserole.
“Hmmm, tastes nice” Evans commented as Adia smiled.
“My sister makes the best dishes” Addison chimed in.
“Wow, then I think, I’ll visit more often, Sebastian’s gonna enjoy your cooking alot, I wonder where he is?” Evans said as Adia stopped in her tracks
” Sebastian’s here?”
” Hmm, hmm”
” But why what’s the occasion?” Asked Adia, she hadn’t bother to ask Evans why he came to her house during the evenings, now it all made sense, Sebastian was here also, but what did he want.
” It would be better if you hear that from him” responded Evans who ate with delight.
“Sebastian!” Addison called happily leaving her seat to hug Sebastian who just got in with Rowan.
” Hey there” Sebastian beckoned reciprocating the hug.
” Come join us for dinner” Addison invited.
” Yea you should it’s really tasty” rejoined Evans.
” Maybe next time, but I have something important to deal with, you wouldn’t mind if I borrow your sister for a while”
” Not at all”
” I meant she’ll be leaving with me tonight and you’ll stay with aunt Cora for a little while” came Sebastian next word as Adia shot him a glare, while Cora appeared to be surprised.
” But why?” Adia stepped forward as she was forced to ask, she thought he gave his word and one week was not yet over.
” Something urgent came up, so we’ll have to leave immediately, don’t worry about your bags, I’ll send someone to come and get them tomorrow”
” I.. I…”
” I hope you cooperate with me, seeing we’re running out of time” Sebastian interuptted.
” Hope you’ll understand Addison” Sebastian returned his gaze to Addison who was already sobbing.
” I’ll give you guys some time” he added giving Adia a knowing look, before striding outside the house.

“Is that everything” Sebastian asked as Adia insisted she grabbed a few things.
“Yes, I’ve got only a few stuff”Adia gasped.
“Very well then, let’s get going, we have a long night ahead of us, get in the car” Sebastian instructed as he placed her bags in the trunk.
The drive went on smoothly as nobody talked to try other.
Sebastian could feel her shyness as they drove on.
Adia noticed Rowan and Evans did not leave with them, maybe they left in some other car.
“We’re here” Sebastian announced as they stop in front of the house.
It was night time and the only thing Adia could see was the lights that surrounded the house, but from the look of things, she was sure it was a very big house, Sebastian was rich after all.
“The maids will take care of that” chimed in Sebastian referring to her bag.
“Come on” he gestured as they walked into the house.
“Your room is upstairs, go to bed, I’ll introduce you to the others tomorrow” Sebastian said leading Adia who has not said a word since upstairs as the house was dimly lit.
“Sir” a deep masculine voice called as a tall figure Walked up to Sebastian.
“We have..” the man stopped talking as Sebastian raised his hands indicating for him to stop talking.
From the look of things, Adia was sure he’s one scaring looking man.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Get in Adia, see you tomorrow”
Adia nodded as she got into the room, while Sebastian walked away.
“You’re were saying?” Sebastian asked as they walked a distance away from Adia’s room.
“We’ve successfully cleared Ms Adia path, and Kate clearly believes she’s left town” the man reported.
“Good Mickelson, what about Logan?”
“He’s currently in town now, but he seems harmless, as of now, he’s not posing any threat” conceded Mickelson as Sebastian nodded.
” Make sure, you watch him and inform me of anything suspicious, tomorrow I’ll introduce you to the new miss, you’re assigned to take care of her” instructed Sebastian.
” Ok sir”
” Have a good night rest” Mickelson bowed as Sebastian walked to his study.

Adia looked around her room, trying to find the light switch, she finally found it as she switched the lights on.
She wowed in awe at the beauty and size of the room, it was literally the size of her whole house, it was neatly arranged, and even if it looked as if no one has lived here, there was not even a peck of dust.
Her legs moved to the closet as her eyes opened like saucers at the amount of clothes, jewelries and accessories there.
All these would cause a life fortune, have he been preparing for these?, Adia asked herself in her thoughts admiring the room, before walking back to her bed.
She finally drifted into her wonderland after series of thoughts has passed through her head.
