Leap OF Fate novel Chapter 59

The scene of Chester and Bryan’s argument kept playing on Serene’s head. It should not bother her since it’s their problem and not hers. But perhaps because she empathized with Bryan, that was why Chester’s harsh words declaring he wanted a divorce rang in her head. She felt Bryan’s pain as if it were Justin who wanted to break up with her.

She tried painting to divert her attention, but it did not help her at all. Putting her brush aside, she looked at the clock on the wall. It’s just after ten in the morning and she’s already out of ideas on how to keep herself busy.

She called Justin’s secretary to check on his schedule and decided to bring Justin’s lunch to the office. After confirming that he had no engagements during lunch time, she informed his secretary that she would be coming but wanted it to be a surprise.

She went down the kitchen to quickly prepare his food then when everything was ready, she had a quick shower. In no time, she’s already in the car with Justin’s chauffeur driving her to Rain International.

At exactly noon time, she stood in front of Justin’s office, giving the door a gentle knock. “Come in,” his authoritative voice commanded.

She had already closed the door behind her, but Justin kept his head down, signing documents. “What is it?” he asked emotionlessly and did not bother lifting his head.

Serene felt chills run down her spine from the treatment she got. Is this what his subordinates deal with every day? An emotionless Justin who only knew how to bark orders?

With trembling knees, she walked forward. She cleared her throat and said, “I brought you lunch.” Her voice faltered as she second guessed her decision to go to his office unannounced.

Justin snapped his head at the sound of her voice. He furrowed his brows, trying to decipher if the person who stood in front of him was indeed Serene or was merely a hallucination his hunger caused. He saw him bite her bottom lip as she looked at him looking like a scared rabbit.

She’s his Serene, alright. Who else could elicit an erection from him just from biting her lower lip. “Kitty, what brought you here?” he said, grinning at her.

She walked up to him. This time feeling relieved and relaxed after seeing him smile. Her surprise visit did not anger him at all. He gestured for her to come over, which she obeyed. He sat her on his lap when she stopped in front of him, then immediately capturing her mouth with his lips.

They were both breathless when he released her. “Why are you here, Kitty?” he affectionately asked while tracing her bottom lip, which was now plump from his kisses.

“I have nothing to do at home, so I brought you lunch,” she explained, then shifted her position from his lap.

Justin’s eyes squinted from her action. “Which is lunch, this…” he said, touching the lunch bag on top of his desk. “or this?” he added, reaching above the hem of her dress and feeling her from the material of her underwear. Serene face flushed from his insinuation and from the sudden heat she felt from his action.

She bolted up and fixed her dress. “Justin!” she looked at him, feigning exasperation. He just laughed at her and brought her back on his lap. He buried his face in her neck and gave her a gentle bite. She gasped from both the pain and pleasure.

“Your... lunch… will get cold,” she struggled to say as his hands wandered on her body.

“OK.” he said then got up from his seat lifting her up with him. She let out a scream, but he immediately hushed her.

They filled the private lounge in his office with their moans and grunts as Justin had his dessert first before his entrée.

After a while, Justin happily ate the lunch Serene prepared while she glared at him as she chewed her food. Justin just chuckled at her as he licked his lips after he finished his meal.

“That’s the best lunch ever, Kitty,” he said, winking at her.

Serene rolled her eyes at him while she wiped her mouth with a tissue. He gave her a chesty laugh before he pulled her closer to him and pecked on her lips. “I love more of this in the future.”

As she was getting up, they heard a sound of a knock come from the door, then Chester came in. He gave her a quick nod before walking towards Justin’s desk. Justin followed his twin, leaving her.

Serene put on her earphones and played a game to avoid listening to their conversation. Whatever that was, she did not want to know it. She had not been sleeping well lately because she inadvertently heard Chester’s argument with Bryan. She did not want to hear something she shouldn’t be again.

She felt a gentle tap on her shoulder just as her character leveled up. Looking up, she saw Chester looking down at her. She smiled. “I’ll get going,” he said.

Serene smiled at him and got up. “Let’s head out together?” she asked Chester, whose eyes widened in surprise but nodded, anyway.

Justin was just behind his brother, so he heard her as well. Serene tiptoed to kiss Justin’s lips and said goodbye to him. He looked at her and Chester leave his office before busying himself with the documents piled up on his desk.

“Chester, do you have time?” Serene asked him tentatively. He nodded, but his frown creased his forehead.

“There’s a coffee shop right across this building, is it ok if we head there?” Once again, he nodded to her question but said nothing.

In the coffee shop, Serene ordered a latte while Chester had a cappuccino. Both sat quietly. She, trying to find courage to talk to the pensive man before her. He, trying to figure out what this unexpected meeting was about.

Hers and Chester’s interactions would somehow always end up intensely. She recalled the time they went to a restaurant, and they have asked her to be an egg donor. She was furious at them. Then, there was the infamous lunch where Dylan showed a necktie she had painted when she and Bryan were still a couple. Inadvertently, the words painted on the tie were the words he used for his vows angering Chester and the two walked out of the middle of their lunch date.

She sipped on her latte, and looked at the man opposite her, racking her brain for the right words to say.
