"Where was Justin last night, why were you walking home alone dressed like that?"
Chang felt a little chagrined under his admonishment, "I was the first to get off, I promise not to do that again." She looked up at him with pleading eyes begging to be let off the hook.
He grunted in response. ' Dam straight.' That was the last time he would be letting her be in that position. Not only would he not have her return from work alone on her own, she wouldn't be returning to La Vie En Rose, where she could be ogled so freely. If he had his way, he would lock her up where no one could see or hurt her, have her be exclusively his.
Jian walked her to his sleek silver Maybach, opening the pa.s.senger door, and secured her in before walking to the driver's side. It started up with a low growl and they rolled out of the garage, he punched into the GPS a restaurant name and followed the directions to for twenty minutes.
The both of them were silent on the trip, he was focused on the road, while Chang studied his side profile. His jaw line had seemed to harden over the last year, other than that he looked pretty much unchanged. She smiled to herself at the dreamlike situation she found herself in.
Giggling to herself she thought 'how many people get to live a fairytale twice, hehe I must have saved the world in a past life or something. Not only did he sweep me off my feet once, he came for me when I no longer had hope.'
Jian noticed her small giggle and felt himself soften, things were finally back to how they should be. he pulled the car up to the curb about a block and helped Chang out of the car. The sun shone on her hair showing a blue sheen which complimented her beautiful deep blue eyes. The dress and hairstyle made her seem so young and fresh, like a bud just starting to open. She took his breath away with the smile lighting up her face looking up at him.
" I was lucky enough to find you once in this lifetime, I won't ever let you leave my side so easily. I will be sure to never let anyone steal you from me again."
Jian held her hand as they walked to the French café. While she had been in the bathroom he had had his a.s.sistant drop him a change of clothes as well as information on places in the area that would be suitable to take Chang for a breakfast date. After looking over a couple he decided on a small café, simply named the café, that had amazing reviews.
He ordered them both some orange juice and coffee as she surveyed the menu deciding. Something as mundane as watching her order, gave him joy and he waved for her to order for both of them so he could enjoy his silent reverie.
As they were sitting there, his personal cell phone in his breast pocket began to vibrate, disturbing him. He ignored it until it stopped, but then it started right up again. The number of people who had his personal cell phone were few and far between, anything work related went through his a.s.sistant. Wrinkling his eyebrows and pulled out the phone, noticing the 1-415 area code, he immediately took the call to Chang's surprise.
Chang watched the joyful expression quickly fall into a worried one, and he spoke in a quiet, terse tone. Her heart couldn't help feeling a twinge of worry hearing it.
"No. I understand, we will be there as soon as possible. Thank you." He succinctly hung up and stood up straightening his jacket.
"I'm sorry Chang but we will need to postpone this something urgent just came up."
"That's OK, maybe next time we can go out together, take care of whatever you need to" she smiled at him from her seat.
"You don't understand we both need to go."
She was truly puzzled now and looked at him head c.o.c.ked slightly to the side. " Both of us really, where to, why?"
I promise to explain of the way, he took both her hands and breathed deep before replying.
"It has to do with your mother."
