Chapter 37

Drew got discharged after spending three days in the hospital. Andrew wanted to say it was possible, but he didn't know what Christiana had in mind for him.

Andrew looked at Christiana to get a reaction from her, but it was blank. They didn't say anything as they brought up another topic to discuss about.

When they reached Christiana's apartment, Andrew decided to break the news to them. After placing Drew on the bed, Andrew began; "I'd be leaving for America tonight."

The information had caught Christiana off guard as her eyes got watery immediately. She began to regret her words and actions. The way he has been acting since she told him to let her go shows he was willing to keep to his promise.

She walked out of the room annoyed leaving Andrew confused. Andrew followed her and she finally stopped in the middle of the living room, turning back to him. "Why did you walk out like that?" He asked her, he didn't understand her She folded her arms around her chest with a scowl on her face. "I said I was leaving," he repeated.

"And I heard you," she replied sarcastically. He was irritated; he was expecting her to bid him farewell, but she didn't care.

"I'd come check on Drew anytime I have the chance, and also…" He trailed off but before he could speak again, she spoke up.

"Why are you keeping your promise?" She asked in a hushed voice. "Just why?"

He was confused, what does she mean by promise? "I don't get it," he retorted.

"You are a jerk as always, Andy," she spat out irritated that he doesn't get her anymore.

She called his nickname, it's been long she called him Andy, she smiles. "It's been a long time since I'm called Andy," he tells her.

"You are a jerk, is that why you are happy?" She clicked her tongue. "I told you to stay away from me and you did that with no issue, what's the name of your lover?" She asked the last part with a low voice.

It then dawned on him what she was referring to as he smirked, "Her name is Rose," he retorted walking close to her.

That name pissed Christiana off as that was her middle name, did he find a girl that uses the same name as her to get back at her? She thought.

"Is she more pretty than I am, is she not as daring as I am, is she stubborn than I or not because you tend to say I talk a lot and you can't really blame me. I lose control over my mouth when I'm beside you and when I made you promise to stay away from me, you should have known I was insane that moment as usual and held onto tight but instead, you..."

Andrew places his index finger on her lips, "Christiana...breathe," he tells her, and she does so. He claimed her lips.

She was shocked, Andrew lips were on hers once more. "I was only trying to joke with you, there is no woman for me." He smiled.

"Jerk," she mutters. "I'm so sorry Andrew, I love you." She whispered.

"I really do, and I never stopped. Please forgive..." Andrew cuts her off.

"Shh..." He placed his index finger on her lips.

"Are you willing to be mine again?" He asked her and she nodded her head. That was all he needed before he claimed her lips.

Christiana placed wrapped her arms around his neck as they kissed, the butterflies in her belly began to dance and her heartbeat raced erratically. She loved how he tasted, so sweet and addicting.

She moaned in his mouth as he shoved his tongue into her mouth. He squeezed her ass as soon as he grabbed them, kissing her neck and leaving love marks on them. "Drew is...Drew could walk in on us, we..." Andrew stopped his assault on her and smiled

"It seems I'm not the only one that wants this," he said to her.

"Stay here, I will go put him to bed and we can make baby number two," he smirked, and Christiana blushed.

"Stop it," she muttered, and he smiled.

"Stop what?" He asked with a questioning brow. He leaned in and pecked her on her lips.

"I will be back," he said, and, he dashed out of the room and came back just as soon as he left. He locked the door and made advances towards her.

"You were quite fast, so eager I see," she teased.

"You do not know what exactly you do to me my love. Tonight will be one of the best in your life. Be ready cause I'm not gonna take it easy on you," he said to her.

He pulled her closer to him, took in a deep breath and he spoke, "Jump." She did as told and he caught her, wrapping her legs around his waist. "Let's make love, it's been long," he said.

Just as he placed her on the bed, he kissed her all over her neck and collar bone. Curiosity got the best of Christiana and she stopped him making him groan.

"Can I ask you a question?" she said.

Andrew leaned back in and kissed her lips, "What?" he said in-between kisses. She trapped his face with her hands to stop him from kissing her.

"Did...did you perhaps…I mean..." She sighed. She didn't know if she should ask him or not.

"Go one. Ask so I can go back to doing what I love," he panted.

"Were you with anyone while I was gone?" She asked him.

Andrew was taken aback by her question; he didn't know why she was suddenly bringing that up. Knowing her very well, if he told her he slept with Vanessa, things would get messy again.

"Promise not to be mad," he said.

As soon as he said that Christiana lost interest to hear whatever he had to say. For him to say that, she thought he must have so she decided not to dig in or she'd be hurt.

"Dad! Mom! Hurry up!" Drew screamed as soon as they reached Jeju island, south Korea. Andrew and Christiana started dating again which made Christiana relocate to America.

Andrew finally opened up the truth about Rachael, it broke both of them as Rachael and Andrew's father had a stronger bond than any other. She said she wasn't going to accept any other father except Andrew's father.

Andrew's father had gone to visit Emerald in jail when he heard the truth about Rachael. Emerald regretted her actions as she pleads for his forgiveness. Rachael promised to despise her mother even till after life.

Six months had past and everywhere was settled and calm.

They got into the yacht prepared for them. Andrew and Andrew Jr. were dressed in white v neck polo shirts and white pants, while Christiana was dressed in a blue sunny gown.

"Wow!" Drew muttered as he saw how beautiful the water was and how far the yacht was going.

"Drew," Andrew called. "Yes Dad," Drew replied.

"Why don't you go inside for now and come back in three minutes, Daddy wants to show mummy something," he tells him.

Drew obeyed and moved inside, as soon as Andrew saw he was gone, he claimed Christiana's lips making her chuckle at his childish move.

After five minutes of a heavy make out session, Drew came out. Andrew got on his knees with one leg, bringing out a red box from his pocket revealing a twelve-karat gold ring.

Christiana gaps as memories of the last time he had wanted to engage her came running through, she was almost shot, it was the same ring he had used then that he was showing her.

"I've searched high and low, on land and in seas, I've claimed mountains, gone to space but I couldn't find any like you. Would you do me the honor and make me the happiest man on Earth by saying I do. Marry me Christiana, marry me!"

Christiana leaped in joy as she began to weep, she was shedding tears of joy. "I will marry you Andrew the great, yes I do!' she said, and he put the ring on her finger.

He got back on his feet and kissed her. Drew squealed with happiness.

"Dad, when will you and Mom get married?" He asked inquisitively.

"As soon as possible!" he replied.
