Chapter 5

Elina's pov

Yesterday I met Andrew again he was claiming himself as my brother's friend who wants me to stay at his home for a few days just because he wants to protect me from the enemies of my brother 

I am not sure if I have to go with him or just stay here waiting for my brother to return home but Marcus is not picking my calls and I am worried for him. 

Andrew doesn't look bad at least not to me but he is stuck in my mind like someone draws a permanent tattoo of him in my brain. 

*knock*

"Come in," I said and my maid came into the room carrying my clothes in her hands. 

"Are you thinking about him?" my maid said and I just nod taking my clothes from her hands and putting it in my bag.

"He is a very handsome man, no?" she asked while having a smirk. 

"He is, but I am scared is it really okay to go with Andrew? We don't know him " my question makes her worried too.

"what if Marcus really sent him to protect you? Andrew is the only man who knows Marcus if you go with him at least you will know more about what your brother does".

She has a point maybe I am just overthinking.

I hear another knocking sound "please come" door opened and Andrew came into the room while having a big smile on the face, I get up from the bed to greet him. 

"hii" I smiled because I don't want him to see my tension. 

"Hello, are you ready?" his velvet voice makes me more nervous so I just nodded. 

"Great let's go then" He grabbed my suitcase and I followed him to his car. 

I said bye to everyone before sitting in the car with him.

The nervousness and tension that was within me gone in a second when the fresh air hit me up.

I look through the window of the car I saw the beautiful view I don't remember when was the last time I enjoyed watching such a scene.

As time pass, I forget that almost an hour ago I was in tension and now enjoying it as this day will never come again.

I realized that I wasn't the only one who was enjoying I was looking outside and he was looking at me while having a big charming smile.

I looked back at him but he hasn't said a single word just staring at me.

"Is there something on my face?" I asked and he chuckles.

"You are beautiful...." his words are enough to make a girl blush but I just smiled hiding my blushing face.

His phone vibrated and when he checked it, he sighs heavily he typed a message and switched off the phone. 

Our car stopped in front of a big mansion. A man came out and removed my suitcase from the car. 

"Do you like my house?" Andrew said while looking at his phone. 

"No I love it, it's like Cinderella's castle so big and beautiful" he laughed. 

"Thanks, I am glad you like it now follow me" and when I stepped in of the mansion it was more beautiful from inside. 

The interior was beautiful everything here was like a royal. It's like I can spend my entire life here without any tensions. 

A few minutes later we stopped at a room which was on the top floor.

"It's your room" that room was much bigger than my drawing-room as I step in I just froze there everything was painted in golden and white and the fragrance of beautiful flowers was just 'WOW'.

"Now I have to go, see ya ". He said and I nodded.

I entered the room and opened the wardrobe to put my cloths "Oh My God!!!" I screamed in excitement to see the hundreds of clothes, shoes, and makeup was already there. 

Please God say this is not a dream I thought. 

"What happened?!" Suddenly Andrew came into the room having confusion look on the face. 

I point towards the wardrobe and he followed my gaze.

 He sighs in relief. 

"You scared me Elina, wait did I forget to tell you that It's all yours," he said taking a step towards me. 

"Really? But why? wait don't tell me that all these clothes, shoes were for your ex who doesn't live with you anymore " I joked and he chuckles 

"No it's only for the special guest like you," He said. 

"How am I special to you?" I asked and he smirks. 

"You are Marcus sister and he is my friend, he hardly talks to me about someone who is very close to him and when he told me about you I understood you are very special to him" He throws my words to me in a different way than making both of us laugh. 

"Thank you for everything" he shook his head. 

"Please Don't mention" he still has that smirk on the face. 

"Take rest I will be back" and he went out of the room closing bedroom's door. 

'Rest?' I am going to explore everything in the room especially dresses. One after one I tried new clothes and it's matching shoes still I haven't checked the makeup and perfumes, I opened the bottle of perfume which was looking expensive, I sprayed a little bit on my wrist and I was in heaven I never smelled something beautiful like this.

Andrew is doing so much for me but should I really trust him?

*******

Andrew

My decision making Elina living with me is going good only for me, not for my men and bodyguards, especially nick. 

They still think that she will create a big problem for us in the future. 

But I don't know why thinking of her gives me good feelings. 

We still haven't found out where Marcus could be and what will be his next plans he is like Jerry who needs cheese to come out of his hole and that cheese is Elina but first I have to gain her trust and for that, I have to make my moves fast. 

When she will realize that my motive is just to protect her nothing else she will start trusting me and it will be enough to destroy her brother. 

Yesterday Sam messaged me, he said he will be here by next week. 

Like I said earlier one after one people are coming to disturb me without any reason. 

I don't want Sam to meet Elina because he has a bad habit of babbling even he doesn't know about my plans he could tell so many other things to Elina that will create problems for me. 

Anyway I am standing outside of Elina's bedroom but I don't know why I am "getting nervous? " nick completed what was going on in my mind. 

"We are standing here from last 10 minutes are you going to knock on the door?" nick asked raising a brow. 

"Ohh come on Why don't you just go and do your work now?" I groaned and he smirked. 

"I am doing my work only to protect you from that short girl". 

Yeah I accept that she is a little short, she came to my shoulder when we stand together but it's normal, right? 

"whatever" I mumbled. 

"do you want me to knock on the door for you?" he asked. 

"What do you mean? Of course, not I can do it myself" 

"I don't think so " 

"You-" I was about to yell him but then I hear footsteps from behind and when I looked back Elina was standing a few feet away from here having confusion look on the face. 

Did she hear us?
