The Pawned Wife
Chapter 12 > Who's That Man?

"Aarrgghh!" Akandra screamed while ruffling her hair.

"How did he know about Alessa? Did I make the mistake of telling that woman about Alessa last night? No! That can't happen, I have to silence that woman's mouth to keep Alessa's death a secret!"

Akandra quickly walked out of his room with a towel still wrapped around his waist. As soon as he came out of his room, he passed by the waiter who was delivering breakfast. The servant who saw his master not yet wearing clothes was only fixated on seeing his athletic body.

"So your eyes! Or do I need a prick?" Akandra took a few steps forward with her eyes glaring sharply.

"No, Mister. I'm sorry." The servant directly lowered his head.

"Good! Now bring that breakfast back, I'll have breakfast later! Move aside." Akandra nudged the maid's body and walked towards Audrey's room.

"Ahh, the fresh ...."

Audrey just finished her shower. His body still wears a towel on his knees. With both hands holding a small towel to dry her hair. Audrey was standing in front of the window, breathing fresh air.

Sometimes he closed his eyes. Only this time could he feel this cool air. During this time Audrey was only busy with making money without being able to relax and enjoy the fresh air.

Brakk!

The door of the room was suddenly broken by someone. It made Audrey's heart feel like it was going to come off right then and there. Suddenly, he turned his body toward the door and both his eyes widened perfectly upon seeing the figure of a handsome man entering his room.

Akandra came in with a hasty move. After that, he slammed the door and locked it. Of course, Audrey was terrified to see Akandra's pretty scary behavior. How not, both of them wear towels, and are in the same room.

Audrey covered her chest with a mini towel she was holding. He can't go anywhere but sculpt. His heart continued to beat rapidly as Akandra's steps drew nearer.

"Here!" Akandra grabbed Audrey's arm and cornered her on the wall.

Audrey's body is now attached to the wall. He was getting more and more scared, because the distance with Akandra was very close. He was afraid that the owner of this house would be reckless with him.

"W-What did you do? What do you want?" audrey asked with a sigh of fear.

"What do you know about me?" instead of answering, Akandra asked Audrey.

"Nothing, I know you are the owner of this house and also the owner of the bar and heiress of the Xaquille hotel. Besides, I don't know anything" he replied honestly.

"Don't lie! If you don't know, how do you know about Alessa?" Akandra supported Audrey with both hands.

"That's because you said it yourself last night. If you don't believe me, you can ask this to Mr. Arman and the man you were with last night" Audrey replied as calmly as possible.

"Affandra you mean?"

"Alright, then you come with me!" Akandra pulls Audrey's hand back and takes her out of the room.

"Wait a minute, sir! I have not worn clothes. Let me wear it first."

Hearing that, Akandra let go of Audrey's hand. "Yes, hurry up!"

"But .. I can't possibly wear clothes in front of you. Can you wait outside?" audrey said with doubt.

"I won't peek at you one bit. So, hurry! I don't like waiting much less wasting time!" akandra.

"Oh yes, Sir. May I borrow the clothes in the closet? I didn't bring clothes when I got here."

"Wear it!" Akandra turned her body upside down by folding both hands on her chest.

"Thank you." Audrey walked towards the closet and immediately put it on.

Finished wearing clothes, he stood behind Mr. Akandra. "Come, sir."

Akandra turned around and fell silent for a few seconds. She was glued to see Audrey wearing the clothes of the late Alessa. Without the handsome man noticing, a melt of tears trickled down his cheek.

'This woman really looks like you, Alessa, ' Akandra said in her heart.

"Sir is fine? Why crying?" ask Audrey.

"It's okay! Come on," take Akandra while wiping her tears.

Audrey nodded and followed the steps of the owner. 'This guy is so weird! Sometimes he's nice but sometimes he's scary too, what really happened to Mr Akandra?' audrey wondered with eyes staring at Akandra's back.

"Sir Akandra, Lord Akandra!" call Mr. Arman who seems to be running towards them.

"What's wrong? Why are you screaming for my name?" Akandra stopped his steps, and so did Audrey.

"That's outside, there's a loud man screaming for the name of Master and also the name of Miss Audrey" explained Mr. Arman with a severed breath.

"Who?"
