Ms. Attractive and inciting CEO

Chapter 414 - Bitter sweet relationship

After finding out that Rick’s father is a member of council, Braxton’s asked his mother to divorce him but she denied and got disowned by them.

Later on Rick have never met Johann or his mother’s family. Just five years back when his first uncle is rumored as murdered by council, Braxton’s blamed Johann and banished him. They humiliated him and his second uncle killed his family. At least the council thought like that...

It is because his first uncle and Johann had a major misunderstandings just a few days before his kill. So the Braxton’s thought that Johann helped the council. From then he is most wanted by this Braxton family. So according to Rick there is no chance Johann could reconcile with Braxton’s.

"Rick, what are you thinking. You spaced out" Hope shook his arm.

Clearing his mind, Rick looked at Jean. Things are getting complicated and he wanted to tell her all about this. But this is not the right time(Author: You will later find out why)

"Jean, you are right. But I don’t think this events are connected. Let us wait till we investigate this matter" Rick said and gave Kiara a meaningful look.

"Jean honey you look too pale and exhausted. Let’s call it a day for now and moreover I and Daniel have a flight to catch at early morning" Kiara said as she yawned.

Scott nodded his head. "All right. Let us meet tomorrow" he said and helped Jean to stand up.

"Rick ask Iris to be present as well. We just can’t keep quite and get this things accelerate. Our first plan got failed so we should come up with second ASAP." Jean said and bidded goodbye to everyone.

After that Jean and Scott went back....

"Kiara, I am going to meet big brother now. As like always he will have some theory about this" he said.

"Who do you think it is...the person who attacked" Kiara scratched her head.

"Might be my second uncle or someone else from our past enemies. If It is really Johann then it can’t be my uncle. Someone else might be working with Johann" Rick said.

"That Bastard. Don’t he want to let you live happily" Kiara cursed his second uncle. Thank god no one know about her existence.

"Hmm.....but why will he attack us all in sudden. He had been passive with his attacks on council till now. Kiara I think it is not second uncle...if it is really him we are doomed" Rick let out a bitter laugh.

"OK, talk to brother about it. I and Daniel will be back in few days" Kiara kissed his cheek and hugged Hope before they exited the house.

"Hope, you want to see how my world looks like right? Come, I will introduce you to my family" Rick said and ruffled her hair.

"You are going to introduce me to them" she chuckled. "But I don’t have any proper dress to wear or any gifts to bring. Rick, we will go after two or three days. I have to prepare" Hope worried.

Rick laughed heartily and hugged her. Kissing her forehead he smirked. "Silly girl, they know everything about you. And bringing you home is the best gift we can give them. Whereas about your dress, even if you come in your nightdress they will not mind" he teased.

"Moreover, you already met Iris and Jasper. Kiara is my cousin and the only person you are left to meet is my brother and sister in law" Rick said and led her to the car.

Kiara is his cousin. Then why did he lie to Jean. Though she wanted to ask he is already stressed enough...

"Your parents" Hope asked but her voice immediately trailed off. She mentally smacked herself for being stupid.

"Hmm....they died long back but I have a god father and some uncle’s who are hard to impress" he said and her face morphed into worry and started biting her fingernails.

He laughed seeing her bit her fingernails. "I am just kidding. They will surely like you..." he caressed her cheek.

"That fingers belongs to me so don’t bite" he said and took her hand into his. Hope laughed as she raised his eyebrow.

"Wow....Rick. You do really know how to act romantic" she mocked. "You have a long way to learn...you suck at it" she pouted.

"I love you Hope. Don’t ever leave me okay" he pursed his lips and kissed her hand. His thoughts are going haywire and he didn’t understand why he is going all erratic.

May be love is really like that. Unconditional and irrational. That is why he is so feared of loosing her...he now understood why Scott is so strict with Jean.

Hope who saw his feared expression took his hand and pressed his palm to her cheek. "No matter what. It will always be there with you" she smiled and leaned into his hug.

"I am lucky to have you in my life Hope. I must have proposed you before itself.." he kissed her lips and then dipped for another.

"Rick, keep your eyes on road. I don’t want to die anytime soon" she kidded but after looking at his dangerous expression she shut her mouth.

"Lame joke right" she laughed and pouted.

"Yes very lame. Just like you" He stopped his car and kissed her again.

"I am not lame" Hope panted in middle of their kisses.

"Hmm..." Rick agreed and pulled her into his lap. "Let’s live together. I don’t want to waste our time together...anymore" he kissed her.

Her heart almost skipped a beat. He is taking initiative...for the first time ever in their life. But now she understood why he use to act cold with her.

Because he is afraid of loosing her because of him. Her heart warmed up and she nodded her head. "OK. I will move in tomorrow" then they clashed their lips again.
