CHAPTER 27: JEALOUSY PT.2

"We just ate at the cafeteria," I said.

I thought he wouldn't say anything just like always but I was surprised when he suddenly crossed his arms and looked at me with a heinous frown on his face. “How come you never do that with me?”

My forehead creased in confusion," Do what? Eat? We do that every day at home, I even cook for the both of us sometimes," I replied.

He's seriously acting weird today. Could it be that he's really jealous like Hudson said?

“Does he not know that we’re together?” I looked at him in awe. Is he really serious right now?

" Isaac, the whole company and even the whole world knows I'm your wife," I said a little pissed.

"That's the point. You're mine but did you have lunch with him?" Jesus, did Isaac lose his brain?

"Look, if you want I'll join you for lunch tomorrow and the day after that too. Are we all good now?"

Isaac scratched the back of his head and looked away, "Well if you insist," I can't believe him. He just left like that after I suggested I'd eat with him tomorrow. Is he sick?!

I went back to my work and looked at those sketches Lincoln gave me earlier.

Those days passed really quickly but Isaac's weirdness didn't stop there. It has already convinced me that he's really jealous of Lincoln.

Just like how he did the other day when we happened to get on the same elevator as Lincoln.

Isaac paved the way and made room for himself between me and Lincoln. He’s so obvious that it’s getting embarrassing.

The whole company saw his ridiculous stunt and Logan even took a video to commemorate it.

He didn't stop there, he made a few more scenes but he finally exploded that Saturday morning.

Well, it wasn't intended but that day, Isaac told me not to go to work since it was a rest day. He stayed at home with me too.

We were silently watching a movie when the doorbell rang. Isaac being a gentleman as he is, opened the door but suddenly closed it so hard that it made me bounce in shock.

He walked back with his hands in his pocket and a poker face. “What is he doing here?” He asked with danger in the tone of his voice.

And then I remembered that if he couldn't reach me he could just go to my house. I totally forgot about my phone upstairs; I wouldn't have needed it to contact Hudson anyway. I totally forgot about him, my bad.

Anyway, the reason he might be here today is probably because of the mission I gave him. Hudson hasn't tracked his location yet so maybe they did.

"I forgot an important file that I really needed to review so I asked him to deliver it here if he couldn't reach me through my phone, Isn't he just diligent?" I said, taunting his jealousy.

And as expected Isaac's vein popped as he clenched his jaw, “Why do you insist on flaunting him in my face?”

I shrugged and giggled as I walked towards the door, opened it and saw Lincoln almost leaving.

But when he saw me he instantly smiled and ran towards me but then he suddenly stopped and his smile suddenly turned fake when he looked behind me.

I rolled my eyes and was about to ask him about what he came for when Isaac spoke, “Maybe you should back off a little twerp, ” Isaac growled.

He pulled my waist closer to him and continued, "Since when were you two this close? Tsk. State your business and get lost,"

I massaged my nose bridge and let out a deep sigh. What am I to do with this man? When is going to stop doing that when he doesn't even like me?

What the bloody hell?! Why would I even care if he like me or not?! Isaac you idiot! This is your fault!

Lincoln didn't have choice but to just give me the brown sealed envelope and run off.

After he was gone, I faced Isaac and asked him bluntly, “Are you jealous?”

Isaac looked away and crossed his arms, “Jealous? Me? Pfff. Never. What would I be jealous about?” He's still denying it despite the fact. SIGH.

“Oh, you’re so jealous. You've been at it since we started that project, " I replied and remembered those embarrassing moments he had back in the office.

Isaac suddenly faced me and cornered me between his arms, “So what if I’m jealous? You’re mine," he looked like a hungry wolf. GULP.

"So, you finally admitted it— What are you doing?" I tried acting cool but he suddenly pulled my waist, causing our bodies to clash.

“W-Why are we hugging?” I asked once again when he didn't respond.

“Just felt cold, that’s all- don’t let go!” He said as he snuggled and squeezed his face on my neck, inhaling all my scent.

A flush crept up on my face, so I tried hard for him not to notice anything, "It's scorching hot outside, how are you cold?" I said and avoided eye contact.

"Tu olor me está volviendo loca gatita," he whispered with those alien language again.

I'll remember what he said and next time I'll search it or just ask Hudson for a translator device.

"Aren't you tired? Today's your first day off, let's finish the movie we were watching," I suggested.

He didn't answer so I thought maybe he fell asleep standing but then he suddenly swept me up my feet and carried me bridal style.

My eyes winded in shock but Isaac just gave me a devilish grin. Fuck, that was hot as hell. How can he do that?!

Damn it! I'm speaking rubbish again! Stupid Isaac!

"I'll melt if you look at me like that mi gatita," He stated.

I snarled at him and hopped off his arms. I sat on the sofa and went back to watching that movie, Isaac just chuckled, used my lap as a pillow and ordered me to stroke his hair.

Stupid Isaac, always making my heart fuzzy...
