Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1293 Women Are Scary
Micah's icy stare sliced through the tension as he slid into the car first.
Andrew knew better than to argue. Instead, he let Percy and Paula know what was up before heading to the kitchen to replace Sadie. "Ms. James, something's come up at the company. Rylan will swing by later to take you back." "Alright, go ahead," Sadie said, glancing at Micah in the car.
"Then we're off. See you later," Andrew said, turning to leave.
Annika's face fell instantly. She chased after him, grabbed his arm, and whispered, "What are you guys doing? Are you going to see that woman?"
"No, it's probably just something urgent at the company," Andrew tried to reassure her, though he wasn't sure himself.
"Probably?" Annika's eyes narrowed. "So it is."
Andrew was at a loss for words.
"Some things never change," Annika snapped, her temper flaring. "I thought he had turned over a new leaf and wanted to make up with our Ms. James, but one call from Olivia and he's gone."
Andrew sighed, "No, Annika, I honestly don't know what's going on. Don't get mad over nothing."
He noticed that the usually calm and rational Annika would lose her temper around him, just like Arya.
"Hmph!" Annika kicked him and stormed off.
"Ah!" Andrew clutched his knee, wincing in pain. A horn honked impatiently from the car. He hobbled over, getting in quickly. As he drove off, he glanced at Annika in the rearview mirror and sighed helplessly, "Women are scary!" "Got hit?" Micah glanced at him with a smirk.
"I didn't even do anything wrong. I got scolded and kicked," Andrew said, feeling aggrieved. "Where can I go to complain?"
"If Annika can hit and scold you, it means she has feelings for you," Micah said quietly, "If she stops, that's when you should worry."
"Really?" Andrew perked up, "So, she has feelings for me?"
"Obviously," Micah rolled his eyes and said, "Annika hasn't taken her eyes off you."
Andrew grinned foolishly.
"It really makes one jealous," Micah sighed sincerely. "Keep it up. This is the best time."
"But it's been over six months, and we haven't made any progress," Andrew said, feeling a bit down, "She's different from Arya. Arya seems more proactive and enthusiastic. You wouldn't believe..."
He whispered, "Rodolfo didn't come back last night."
"Jealous?" Micah raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I'll give you the night off. You don't have to come back either."
"I wouldn't dare," Andrew blushed and muttered, "Even if I don't come back, it wouldn't work out. She's not that easy to win over."
"Useless." Micah couldn't be bothered to continue the conversation. He looked down at his phone and saw the information Chloe had just sent. His brow furrowed slightly.
Sadie added the ingredients to the pot and went to the yard to drink tea and bask in the sun.
Looking at the tire marks at the gate, she thought of Micah and felt a bit down. He was probably rushing off to see Olivia. Couldn't even wait a night.
Annika appeared by her side and suggested, "Ms. James, why don't we head into town tonight? After dinner, Hubert will go to bed early, and we might as well take care of some shopping. The kids will be asleep by the time we get back anyway."
"If you want to see Andrew, just say so," Sadie teased, eyeing her.
"No," Annika explained anxiously. "It's just that Mary, Emma, and Donna are almost out of formula. We might as well buy some, and there are a lot of things we need to get for the house since we're here anyway."
