Chapter 14: Missed You To Death

CHAPTER 14: Missed You To Death

Adrian’s POV

I couldn’t concentrate on any of the meetings so far. I was on edge. And I made sure every one around me felt it.

“Sir”

“What?” I snapped. I hated when someone interrupted my thought process. Especially when I was thinking about my Princess.

I craved to hold her in my hands, to breathe in her scent. But knowing she was so far away from me, in another continent at that, made my heart race. And not in a good way.

“A meeting in Shanghai at exactly 12am. The coordinates align with the hotel Mrs Cole stays in.”

Shanghai?

“I have a meeting in Shanghai?” Why didn’t I know of this?

“The meeting was meant to hold in London. But we thought it was best to shift the location to Shanghai”

As expected of my trusted people.

“When do we leave for Shanghai?”

“As soon as you are ready Sir. The helicopter has been prepared. I can have the private jet ready if you want that as well”

“The private jet. We leave in thirty minutes”

“Okay sir”

He took a bow as he made his way to leave.

“Hold on. You are to have an increment in your salary for the next three years. As well as any other person who was in charge of that decision. Is that clear?

“Crystal clear Sir”

In thirty minutes, I depart to meet my Princess. This was the calmest I had ever felt ever since I watched her plane leave.

I needed to get her a gift. A gift befitting of her status as my queen.

I stood up and personally drove myself to my diamond refinery. I walked into the refinery, not minding the diamond dust flying over the place.

“Good morning Sir. What do you want?”

I had no particular description of what I wanted but I wouldn’t let him know that.

“I’m just taking a look. Go on. I will notify one something catches my attention”

The man leaves as I wander around the display of diamonds.

One however manages to capture my attention. A blue sapphire diamond. A perfect blend with my Princess’s eyes.

“What would I make with this now?”

I thought about a lot of things but only one thing was befitting.

A diamond ring. One that was small but would dazzle. I was going to personally design it.

I didn’t trust anyone to handle it to perfection. And Princess deserved everything perfect. Not near to, not halfway. Perfect.

Have this taken to my home. The carriers should be careful as I don’t want a single crack at all on it. Am I understood?”

I issued out the order to one of the attendants beside me as I made my way out.

I had just five minutes left and I would be on my way to met my Princess.

“Sir. The plane departs in the next ten minutes. Please inform us of everything you might possibly need for a comfortable flight”

I refused to acknowledge their presence as I only dreamt of one person. I would soon meet my Princess.

“Sir, is there anything else?”

I closed my eyes as I waved him off. I was thinking of where I could possibly meet my Princess. Would she be in her hotel? Or on the streets of Shanghai?

Knowing my Princess, the latter was more possible.

I walked out of the refinery as I entered into my car parked right in front of it. My driver sitter in front with my right hand man.

“We are good to go Sir. The Mrs happened to go for the movie premier and won’t be back till sundown.”

“Okay”

I closed my eyes and rested my head as the car made its way to the airport.

My stuff was already loaded and ready by the time I got there. I boarded the plane and we took off to Shanghai.

Soon. I would hold my girl in my arms.

“We are here Sir”

I didn’t wait one bit as I went down the plane and drove off straight to Hilton’s hotel. I had arranged for my Princess to have a personal suite all to herself. I didn’t want the dangers that came with pairing up with other females.

I knew of the envy, the callousness and the deviousness of the female heart and I wouldn’t want my Princess to get in touch with such.

Walking in, I took an elevator straight to her room. Anxious to see her again.

And then the shock of walking in and not finding her at all.

“Pull up security cameras here in Shanghai and find out where she is” I barked out the order out of frustration. I was getting cranky and crankier with each moment she wasn’t by my side.

“Yes Sir.”

I marched out of the room. Livid, I took out my phone as I called her.

‘The number you just dialed cannot be reached’

Great. Straight to voicemail. My phone pinged once more in my hands as I brought it out and glanced at the message.

“Jinjiang Action Park, Minhang.” I knew that my Princess would be the type to stroll around the famous streets of Shanghai.

I went into my car and entered the direction I was heading to. The only goal in mind was to see her look of a surprise when she finds out I followed her here. I wouldn’t stay for long thought. But spending a minute with her was better than an entire day where I don’t get to see her face.

The park was bustling by the time I got there. Every stall was filled up with people which made me wonder how I was ever going to find my girl.

But it seemed as if fate had better plans for me as I sighted her boarding her cabin in the fear race wheel. A huge smile spread across my face as I watched her. Oblivious. That’s one of the reasons I was so fucking obsessed with her.

Her hair cascaded down as she shut down everyone and everything away. A guy approached her and I was beyond relieved when she shushed him away.

Relieved yes. Was he going to die? Still a solid yes.

I watched as she sat alone in the cabin. Unable to bear it any longer, I moved to her just in time to hear her say the words;

‘I miss you. So much’

Oh darling, if only you knew.
